The night falls. Because we are getting closer to the desert, there are few plants and the desertification of the land has begun to become serious.
The wind unknowingly carried fine sand, which hit people's faces painfully.
Pang Yong endured physical and mental exhaustion and rode for a day, and finally saw the bonfire in the distance.
Xia Bing behind him was completely drowsy, and her whole body was leaning on his back.
Seeing the traces of the border patrol, Pang Yong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Since the team was able to stop and set up camp, it also meant that the demon had not succeeded yet and everything was turning around.
Pang Yong did not approach in a hurry, but chose to tie the horse in place. In order to ensure that he would not scare the snake, he and Xia Bing gradually moved towards the camp.
The two climbed behind the rocks on the slope, where they could view the situation of the border patrol troops from a high position and adjust their plans based on the situation.
"Ha~~it doesn't seem to be anything serious." Xia Bing said with a yawn.
Under the dim bonfire, the soldiers acted as usual, and everything seemed like nothing happened.
"As long as nothing happens, we will keep observing for a while and we will approach the camp." Pang Yong did not dare to relax at all and stared in the direction of the border patrol.
Xia Bing breathed a sigh of relief. It was really hard for her to face a monster that could threaten more than twenty elite soldiers.
"No, something is wrong..." Pang Yong said in a deep voice, his eyes narrowed, and his body unconsciously exuded evil energy.
"How could it be? I don't see anything strange..."
Xia Bing retorted and wanted to take the compass out of her arms, but Pang Yong beside her suppressed her hand.
"If the demon is extremely powerful, it will cause too much noise."
After Pang Yong finished speaking, he began to smear mud on his exposed face in order to better hide it.
Xia Bing was a little at a loss. In her opinion, nothing special happened.
Seeing her expression, Pang Yong immediately explained: "Look at the condition of the horses. It is obvious that they have just stopped. They were not repaired so late at night, but were gathered around the campfire. There must be something abnormal."
Xia Bing opened her mouth and wondered if you were overthinking it. There were so many warriors in the border patrol, and most monsters couldn't get close.
"There is movement..."
There was some excitement in the camp. Pang Yong immediately looked closely and saw a tall man walking out from the back of the original military tent, holding a large pot in his hand.
The border patrol soldiers were immediately attracted, and even Wang Sheng walked out of the military tent, laughing and joking.
Pang Yong looked at Wang Sheng's figure with a complicated expression, thinking that it had been some years since he left the border patrol.
He was originally a member of the border patrol, but because a woman had a bad fight with Wang Sheng, he quit the army.
"It looks like nothing happened. Maybe it's just that the journey was too hard. I plan to eat something and sleep."
Xia Bing couldn't help but say, and after Pang Yong looked at it carefully, the worry in his heart gradually dissipated.
Just when he was debating whether to meet the border patrol, Qin Bai opened the lid of the pot in the camp far away.
Thick black smoke drifted out from it. The place where the two were staying had a wide field of vision, just enough to see clearly, and they suddenly took a breath of cold air.
The pot seemed to be filled with brine, in which chunks of bright red meat of varying sizes were soaked.
"What the hell is this?" Pang Yong was slightly stunned. Could it be that he had been out of the army for too long, and now the food in the army has become so weird.
Then he vaguely heard Qin Bai's words: "Beef usually gets better as it gets rawer. When the first ray of sunlight shines on the cow in the morning, you can actually chase it and eat it."
Without realizing it, everyone took out the pieces of meat from the brine. He couldn't wait to take a bite, and their eyes widened immediately.
Although the pieces of meat look the same as raw meat, there is no fishy smell at all. Instead, the taste becomes richer and richer the more you chew it, and it is extremely juicy.
Unknowingly, He Ku's face was covered with blood after eating.
The others were also very curious about the taste of the meat and tasted it one after another. The scene looked like a group of demons feasting on it.
The most amazing thing is that the extremely strong smell of blood spreads in the air, causing a bunch of flies to fly around.
For everyone in the border patrol, they are used to it. The taste buds on their tongues tell them that it tastes good, and the blood circulation in their bodies has begun to speed up.
Mr. Zheng ate particularly enthusiastically, and the donkey also came over. This dish was supposed to increase the energy and blood endurance, so Qin Bai naturally let him eat more.
Wang Sheng tried his best not to care about the appearance of the food, and he was already restrained compared to before. After taking a few bites, he found that his energy and blood were steadily rising.
The camp was full of praise for Qin Bai's cooking skills, while Pang Yong not far away felt his scalp numb, and Xia Bing even couldn't help but retched.
Is there something wrong with the way I opened it? Why are the expressions on everyone's faces so happy even though they are so curious about the food they eat?
"This man is a monster."
Pang Yong quickly came to the conclusion. He stared at Qin Bai in the crowd, and his two-meter-high body was not something ordinary people could possess.
"..."
Xia Bing didn't know how to refute. Her instinct told her that it had nothing to do with monsters, but those people's clothes were stained with blood after eating, which was really abnormal.
Pang Yong just thought she acquiesced, pulled out the saber from his waist, and planned to rush forward to save people.
"Wait a minute." Xia Bing reached out to stop him, then scratched the blade with his palm, and blood immediately stained the blade red.
"My family's ancestors have been slayers of demons for generations, and their blood is naturally filled with supernatural power. Mortal soldiers like you cannot hurt such a powerful demon."
"Okay, wait for me here. If I can't come back, leave immediately."
Pang Yong nodded slightly towards Xia Bing. After the two looked at each other, the former immediately looked away.
"Take care of yourself……"
Seeing Pang Yong's vigorous figure falling from a height, Xia Bing couldn't help but worry, but if she followed, she would only expose her whereabouts, which would be more than worth the loss.
After Xia Bing hesitated for a moment, he put his palm on the compass in his arms, but nothing happened.
Although Pang Yong's skills have declined slightly over the years, he is still considered a good player. After retiring from the army, he became an extremely experienced hunter and was very good at concealing himself.
Jean continued to shuttle in the shadows. As he got closer to the camp, there were fewer and fewer places to hide. Naturally, the place where Wang Sheng chose to rest could not have too much cover.
When he was ten meters away, Pang Yong leaned forward and rushed forward, and his whereabouts were immediately discovered.
"Brother Yong!"
"Pangtou!!"
"A Yong!!"
"Master Ye!!"
