Chapter 182 Chance Encounter
The vast desert and the golden sand are the only main theme here. The strong wind carries the sand and sweeps across the sky and the earth. The wind howls incessantly.
On a sand dune, Xiao Yan, with his upper body naked, was frowning at the map in his hand. It had been more than ten days since he entered the Tagore Desert, and after more than ten days of walking, Xiao Yan finally came close to the range of the flame mark on the map. However, after entering this range yesterday, Xiao Yan still found no trace of the strange fire after a whole day of searching.
"Why not? We weren't fooled by that old guy, were we?" Xiao Yan raised the sheepskin map in his hand, looked up at Yao Lao suspended in mid-air, frowned and smiled bitterly.
"Well... I don't know. The terrain around here is no different from other places, and I can't feel anything moving." Yao Lao slowly lowered his body and said helplessly.
"If there is nothing wrong with this map... then there should be no traces of strange fire here..." Xiao Yan sighed as he shook his head.
"Maybe so."
"Oh... damn, I've been walking for more than ten days in vain." Xiao Yan cursed depressedly, waving the sheepskin map fiercely.
"Haha, it's not in vain. At least in these more than ten years of training, you have gradually approached the level of a one-star fighting master. As long as you persist in practicing for a while, it should be a matter of course for you to break through to a two-star fighting master. ." Yao Lao comforted with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan still curled his lips unwillingly, pointed at the flame mark on the map, and muttered: "Let's look for it again. After all, this mark is so big and covers a large area, and we are not familiar with the place here. Naturally, you need to spend more time looking for the environment and terrain, otherwise if you miss it... you will regret it to death?"
"Well, this range is indeed not small, and that old guy is really lazy... Well, let's find two more days. After two days, we will turn to the north... We will go back and forth between these two sides, and we won't have a month, right? It's impossible to reach it." Yao Lao glanced at the flame sign, frowned slightly, and then nodded.
With a wry smile, Xiao Yan sighed again, and habitually touched the huge Xuanzhong Ruler behind his back with his palm, then raised his feet and walked towards the sea of sand within his sight.
Under the scorching sun, Xiao Yan once again walked profusely for nearly half an hour. Just when he was about to stop and take a rest, he suddenly raised his brows, turned his head, and looked at the sand dunes not far away. , a figure was running away in an extremely embarrassed manner. When he was descending the sand dune, he became unstable and rolled directly down the sand.
Frowning slightly, he looked at the figure that rolled down the road and finally rolled not far in front of him. Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly, walked forward, took out a bag of water from the Najie, and poured it into this person. On the man's face.
Under the stimulation of the water source, the comatose man gradually opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Yan who appeared in front of him. He was shocked at first, and then he breathed a sigh of relief after discovering that he had no bad intentions.
Glancing at the man lightly, Xiao Yan casually took out two or three bottles of water from the ring, then threw them next to the man, turned around and left.
In the bottom of his heart, Xiao Yan has never thought that he is a good person with a bodhisattva heart. When he meets an injured stranger in the desert, being able to give him some water is the biggest bottom line. If he still wants him If I set out to support you all the way out of the desert, I would have no choice but to apologize...
"Little brother..." Looking at Xiao Yan who turned around and walked away without any sloppiness, the man was slightly startled, and then hurriedly said hoarsely: "Little brother, please stay, our mercenary team was attacked by snakemen, and now we are in a critical moment of life and death. , please also ask my little brother to go to Stone Desert City to help ask for reinforcements!"
"Sorry, I don't have time."
Without looking back, Xiao Yan raised his hand and said calmly, "You can't blame him for being indifferent. Countless people are dying every day in this world. Does anyone have to help move reinforcements by themselves?" Since you are working as a mercenary in the Tagore Desert, you should naturally be aware of this fate.
"Little brother!"
Looking at Xiao Yan who was gradually walking away, the man gritted his teeth and squirmed, shouting with all his strength: "Little brother, please help me, if the team can be rescued, our Motie Mercenary Group will definitely reward you heavily!" "
When the man's shout fell, the young man in the distance who was about to disappear into the wind and sand suddenly paused. After a moment, he turned around and walked back, coming to the man's side with ecstatic gaze.
"Motie Mercenary Group? Motie Mercenary Group in Shimo City?" Xiao Yan blinked, with a bit of surprise in his dark eyes. What a coincidence?
"Yes...little brother, have you heard of our mercenary group?" Seeing this, the man was a little confused whether Xiao Yan was malicious or kind to the Motie mercenary group, but in this case, he had to bite the bullet road.
"What's your captain's name...?"
"Xiao Ding...Xiao Li..." The man licked his dry lips and said cautiously.
"Oh..." Nodding slightly, the smile on Xiao Yan's face softened a lot. He actually squatted down, looked at the injury on the man's thigh with his fingers, and then threw him a pill: "Take it, take it first." The snake’s venom has been cured.”
"Thank you, little brother." The man quickly took the pill, said gratefully, and swallowed it.
"This is healing medicine. Apply some on your own. It shouldn't be a big deal. After applying it, take me to your mercenary team." Xiao Yan took out a small bottle of healing medicine from the ring, threw it to the man again, and then stood up. , clapped his hands and smiled.
"Huh? Where are you going?" Hearing this, the man was startled and hurriedly said: "Brother, that's not possible. There are eight snake men besieging our team, and three of them are Nine-Star Fighters!"
"Little brother, you'd better go to Shimo City and notify us of the mercenary group. The leader and others will rush over immediately. It's not far away!" the man persuaded.
"Stop talking nonsense, quickly apply the medicine, and then lead the way. I am sure that I can do this, otherwise all your people will be dead when they bring people over." Xiao Yan lightly kicked the man's thigh. He rolled his eyes and urged.
Listening to Xiao Yan's words, the man looked at the former again with suspicion. The bare-backed boy, a pair of shorts, and a strange black ruler...all these made the man confused about the strength of the boy in front of him. .
With a wry smile, the man applied the healing medicine to his thigh, then stood up tremblingly, pointed his finger behind the sand dune, and said, "It's not far over there."
Glancing at the sand dune, Xiao Yan nodded slightly, grabbed the man's arm, and suddenly stepped on the sand with the sole of his foot. With a dull explosion, a huge sand pit was shaken out of the sand. , and with the help of this reverse thrust, Xiao Yan and the man's figure suddenly rushed onto the sand dune.
Climbing up the sand dune, Xiao Yan once again swept a distance like lightning, and finally stopped on a towering sand surface. He dropped the stunned man in his hands to the ground, took a step forward, and looked at the desert below. of people.
In the desert below, a dozen mercenaries were holding weapons with their backs turned. Around them, eight strange-looking creatures were surrounding them. These creatures had human heads and bodies, except for their feet. , but it turned out to be a huge snake tail. When the snake tail was thrown, it made a chirping sound, which made people feel a little chilled.
"Are these the snake-men from the Tagore Desert?" Xiao Yan glanced at the eight male snake-men and exclaimed, which was a bit eye-opening. This was the first time he had seen such creatures.
"Brother... Sir, they are a team from our Motie Mercenary Group. We originally planned to hunt the monsters, but we didn't expect to be attacked by these guys..." His eyes swept over Xiao Yan's back in awe, and what he had shown earlier The speed at which he came out had already let the man know that the seemingly young boy in front of him was actually a strong man with hidden powers.
"Yes." Xiao Yan nodded slightly and glanced at the ten mercenaries again. Ten mercenaries, eight men and two women. His eyes glanced among them, and finally stopped on a slim figure.
This woman seems to be around 20 years old. Her pretty face is quite delicate, but her slightly raised eyebrows have a faint hint of unruliness like a little female leopard in the desert. Looking at such a temperament, you can Imagine that although this desert flower is very beautiful, it is covered in thorns.
This woman was dressed quite boldly and fiercely. Her short clothes only covered her breasts and the parts below. However, her sexy bronze waist was exposed to everyone's sight. It was also short. Under the leather skirt, a slender and sexy thigh was exposed. Xiao Yan could see when standing on it that there were several obscene glances among the snake men, constantly looking at the woman's slender waist and tight breasts. Sweep it across your thighs.
"Kill them and keep the women!"
A leading snake man, his eyes with triangular pupils swept over the woman's body, his voice was cold and hoarse, and it was a bit obscene. Snakes are inherently obscene, and they have an almost innate greed and covetousness for women.
After hearing the leader's order, the faces of the surrounding snake men suddenly surged with bloodlust, their mouths opened slightly, and scarlet snake letters spat out.
"Everyone, be careful. Danzai has gone back to ask for help. As long as we hold on for a while, we will be saved!" Seeing the snake man's actions, the sexy woman pursed her red lips tightly and shouted in a cold voice.
Hearing this, the surrounding mercenaries were slightly excited, but the palms holding the weapons were still full of sweat. The highest level on their side was only about seven-star fighters, but the opponent was several nine-star fighters. Star Fighters, this gap... I wonder if it can last until reinforcements arrive?
"Kill!" The leader of the snake men sneered, and with a wave of his hand, the snake men around him who were looking at him with ferocious faces immediately rushed towards the mercenaries in the middle with ferocious faces.
"call out!"
Just when the Snake Man started to attack, a sharp sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded in the sky, and a black shadow suddenly crossed the sky. Finally, like a black lightning, it hit the gap between the Snake Man and the mercenary with a bang. between.
The yellow sand gradually flew away, and a thin figure holding a huge black ruler slowly appeared in everyone's sight.
