After the Legend Chapter 42: Desert Storm

Xiao Tianjian fluttered across the long sword, and wherever the sharp blade went, flesh and blood flew. Only half of the gang members who originally surrounded them were still struggling to support them. Many of them were injured, and the black fat man, who had shrunk away long ago, was yelling.

Ming Na felt the pain in her stomach subsided. She couldn't help but look at the corpse in front of her. She only reached out and quickly pulled out the potions and materials that had not been destroyed. A knife that was cut over kicked the attacker on the back leg and sent him to his grandfather. The sword fell and he died.

More and more gang members were unable to take Xiao Tianjian, so they turned their minds on Ming Na. She had to pay attention to the situation around her, avoid all kinds of attacks, and sometimes kick a few times or pick up the sword. Knives back the gang members. I don't know how long it has been like this, the gang members died and fled, no one stood in front of the grandparents, and the black fat man has long disappeared.

Xiao Tianjian spat, turned back and asked with concern: "Ming Na, are you alright?" Ming Na shook her head: "Now my stomach doesn't hurt, and I'm not injured." Xiao Tianjian breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about what an old friend would do The potion is really trustworthy, and I will ask for a few more bottles next time. Seeing the blood around him, he frowned in disgust, and pulled his granddaughter: "I'm afraid we can't go to play anymore, we must leave as soon as possible, those people will come back soon."

Although Ming Na was a little frustrated, she didn't care about playing anymore. She was very obedient and let her grandpa hold hands and left. After walking a few dozen steps, she saw the branches and leaves of a clump of trees beside her shaking. It seemed that someone was there. hidden behind.

"Who?! Come out!" Xiao Tianjian shouted immediately.

A figure walked out from behind the bushes, with a thin body and a pale face. It was Frido.

Xiao Tianjian sneered as soon as he saw him: "It seems that your new master has left you alone? Come here, I'll give you a treat!" Ming Na's heart was tight, but when she thought of the severe stomach pain she had just now, she This person was hurt, biting his lip, but didn't make a sound.

Friedo became paler after hearing Xiao Tianjian's words, fell to his knees with a thud, lowered his body, and pleaded with a trembling voice: "Lord Count, please forgive me, I... I am Forced...they, they are the bosses here, and I can't help it..."

Xiao Tianjian snorted coldly: "Don't pretend to be pitiful, I've seen people like you a lot, and you can do anything to children, why should I keep you?!" Ah, but it didn't stop him.

Seeing the sharp sword stabbed in his chest, Friedo closed his eyes in horror and shouted, "I know where their ambushes are!" The sword edge stopped less than an inch away from him. Now, he opened his eyes and stared at the sword, not daring to make a sound, as if his throat was pinched, and said sharply: "I know how many of them there are, and where there are ambush, I know where to go. Avoid them, I still have a sturdy horse with enough clothes and water on it, I will show you the way, please...as long as you don't kill me..."

Xiao Tianjian narrowed his eyes, as if hesitating to let him go. Minna looked at Friedo's terrified and humble face, feeling a little uncomfortable for some reason. She pulled Grandpa's sleeve, and there was an implied prayer in her eyes. Xiao Tianjian glanced at his granddaughter and frowned.

Friedo noticed it and said quickly: "Although the Count can escape without me, but the poison in the little lady... I have medicine here to relieve the poison..."

Xiao Tianjian turned his head to look at him coldly. Seeing that he took out a small bottle from his pocket and handed it out, he signaled Mingna to bring it over. Raised his chin more: "Get up and lead the way, tell me what you know."

He moved his sword away, and Friedo stood up with a white face and trembling, and pointed to a path on the right: "Please... this way..." Xiao Tianjian motioned for him to go first, then pulled tightly The granddaughter followed.

They took a remote path, passing two streets first, to the outskirts of the town, avoiding several groups of young men with weapons.

While walking, Friedo whispered that the mastermind who sent someone to intercept Xiao Tianjian this time was a deputy of the late underground duke. They were hit hard and worried that Xiao Tianjian would become a help to others, so they wanted to strike first.

Xiao Tianjian sneered all the way, that kind of idiot will kill himself sooner or later, and a few other people let him surround himself, I'm afraid there's no good intentions, he won't be stupid enough to be used as a gunman.

Seeing his face, Friedo was silent for a while, and hurriedly led them into the place where he hid his horses, took the horses, and led them away from the patrolling people to the edge of the town. When he handed over the reins to Xiao Tianjian, a strong reluctance rose in his heart, but he held back: "There is a man on horseback with ten days' dry food and water, and a tent, enough for the earl and the young lady to walk out of the desert. ."

Xiao Tianjian looked at the rolling sand dunes in the distance, and glanced at Friedo, who hurriedly said: "The road leading to Nuojia and Fan'a is guarded by hundreds of people, the only one with fewer people is the desert direction, that is Because they thought you were going to Brahma... this is, this is the safest way."

Xiao Tianjian was noncommittal, took the reins, and said indifferently: "Very good, now...you should be on your way." After that, he drew his sword. Minna's eyes widened in surprise.

Friedo lost his voice: "You promised not to kill me!"

"When did I promise you? I'm just asking you to lead the way." Xiao Tianjian sneered, "It's already cheap for a mad and repetitive villain like you to live half an hour longer."

Friedo's legs softened and he fell to his knees: "No, no, no! You can't kill me, I'm being forced, please, don't kill me! Please..." He crouched down The body kept begging, but Xiao Tianjian was unmoved, and he was about to raise his sword and stab him.

Ming Na reached out and grabbed Grandpa's sword holding hand: "Grandpa, you promised not to kill him, and you will do what you promised!"

"Minna, you're wrong, I just asked him to lead the way, I didn't promise not to kill him."

"But he said that as long as you don't kill him, he will lead us the way. You asked him to lead the way, which means you agreed." Ming Na's face was full of seriousness, "You can't kill if you agree."

Xiao Tianjian frowned: "Get out of the way, Ming Na, have you forgotten that he poisoned you? You still plead for him?!"

Ming Na held his hand tightly, but refused to let go: "No! Grandpa, I know he poisoned me. At first, I was also very angry, but then I thought that he knew I didn't. He drank milk tea and didn’t eat much scones. He also put poison on these two kinds of food. How could he intentionally harm me? If he really wanted to poison me, he should put it in the barbecue. I… I don't think he's a bad guy...he taught me a lot and chatted with me kindly..."

Xiao Tianjian was dubious: "Really? But he was still poisoned. You were in so much pain just now, but it's not fake. Besides, when the master died, he took refuge in others, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a good person! Kind, just trying to numb you."

"No, no!" Friedo raised his head suddenly, "I never thought of harming the young lady! It was they who forced me to poison me, and if I refused, they would kill me! When the food was given to the young lady, they kept watching, and there was nothing I could do... I really don't want to die, I just want to live a better life, a person with no power like me can't make a living in this country. You can only be looked down upon by others...I know the duke is your friend, but...you have no idea what life we ​​are living under him..." His voice gradually fell, almost as if he was choking.

Xiao Tianjian squinted at him, then said after a while, "It's okay to let you go, but what if you turn around and tell people and bring those people to chase us?"

Friedo swooped forward excitedly, his eyes almost popping out: "No, I was going to leave. They kept fighting, who knows if there would be any danger...and I help They will deal with you, you will definitely not let me go, so... I have decided to go to Anko to hide for a while, and come back when the situation here is stable. If you let me go... I will hide to my friends I'll go home and find another chance to leave, I'll never let them find me!"

Xiao Tianjian stared at him closely, thinking about the credibility of these words, Ming Na whispered: "Don't kill him, okay? Grandpa, I really don't think he is a bad person..." Xiao Tianjian glanced helplessly at his little granddaughter At a glance, he finally retracted his sword. As soon as Friedo saw the sword against him disappear, he collapsed to the ground as if he had collapsed.

Xiao Tianjian kicked him angrily, and reached out to hug his granddaughter to mount, but Ming Na turned around and walked in front of Frido, squatted down and said to him: "Don't be like this again...I, I see. I'm so sad... You are so smart and powerful, why do you do this... I don't know what to say, but when I saw you kneeling on the ground, trembling all over, I felt very uncomfortable, really..." She Snoring, he walked towards him at the urging of his grandfather, and helped him get on the horse.

As they rode off, Minna heard Frido's shouting from behind, and when she looked back, she saw that he propped up his upper body, with tears on his face, shouting to her loudly: "Ming Miss Na, in the future... don't trust others easily, really... don't trust anyone easily..." He bowed his head, as if weeping bitterly.

Minna didn't have time to think about it, the horses they were riding had run far away, the twilight was drowsy, and gradually, Frido was no longer visible.

As night fell, the grandparents and grandsons had left the town of Murray a long way. They are now on the edge of the desert. On the right is the endless yellow sand, and on the left is the high mountain that separates Weisha and Fan'a. At the junction between the foot of the mountain and the desert, there are many rugged rocks and sparse green grass scattered on the sand. , the north wind blows, blowing up the dust.

Seeing that there were no pursuers behind, Xiao Tianjian found a place to stop, took out the water from the horse, had a late dinner with his granddaughter, and checked whether there was any remnant of the poison she had previously suffered. Seeing that my granddaughter was a little absent-minded, as if thinking about something, I asked her what was wrong.

Ming Na said confusedly: "Just now, Frido told me not to trust others easily, what does it mean?" Did he tell her not to trust him?

Xiao Tianjian smiled: "He's right. You're a child who trusts others too easily. Now he's better than before, but when others treat you better, you treat them as friends. That's the worst part. Good. What if there are bad people who are intentionally nice to you, in fact, to harm you?"

Minna tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "But I don't think Frido is a bad person. If he is a bad person, I... I can see it."

Xiao Tianjian shook his head and smiled: "How can someone who is really good at deceiving people be so easy to see? If you are an experienced person, it's fine. You are a child, how can you have that ability? For example, Frido, what he said. He said he would not betray us. In fact, he was afraid that he would die if caught by those people. It was not really for us at all. It’s ridiculous that you think he is really a good person.”

Minna pouted: "I just don't think he's a bad guy anyway."

"Okay, okay." Xiao Tianjian sighed helplessly, "Whatever you think, but you can't trust others so easily in the future. In fact, there is something wrong with me. I thought that Friedo would not dare to disobey the strong. Obedient, I didn't expect him to be so afraid of death that he would rather offend me, so I'd better not leave you casually in the future."

Ming Na nodded happily and wrapped her arms around Grandpa's neck: "That's right, Grandpa can't just leave me alone in the future."

Xiao Tianjian laughed dumbly, and could only urge her: "Hurry up and eat your fill, let's take advantage of the dark and cool days to walk more, and wait until noon to rest." He turned to look at the mountains behind him: "Now, we We can only walk along the foot of the mountain and take the road to Shaonan to go back to East, or else, this road will be much more peaceful.”

Minna nodded, quickly swallowed the dry scones, drank water again, and let her grandpa carry her on the horse again, and set off again.

They went all the way to the south. For the first two or three days, they were worried that there would be chasing troops, so they hurried on the road. Although Xiao Tianjian has extraordinary skills, he is still not as familiar as the locals when fighting in the desert, and with his little granddaughter, he naturally avoids if he can. Later, when he saw that no one was chasing after him, he believed that Friedo really did not inform the gangsters, and the speed slowed down.

They adjusted their work and rest time. They only set off at sunset every day, and then rested before the sun rose to mid-heaven. They slept in the tent prepared by Frido before, and ate dry food and water. In this arid desert, it seems that it is extremely difficult to condense water elements into water balls, so Ming Na no longer wastes magic power, and only relies on the storage in the water bag to quench her thirst. A little cool breeze technique to cool myself and my grandfather. Xiao Tianjian greatly appreciated this and encouraged her to practice more wind magic.

When the sun is very hot, you can blow a little wind to cool down, but when a strong wind blows in the desert, the wind mixed with sand and dust blows into people's mouths and nostrils, which is not very comfortable. matter. The strong wind from the northern plateau hit thousands of miles of yellow sand, rolled the sand into the sky, and fell again, burying countless creatures. Ming Na and the others were walking by the foot of the mountain, but they could not avoid being hit by the sandstorm. In less than an hour, both of them turned yellow and fluttering. A slight pat on their bodies was like a puff of smoke.

Ming Na had a bitter face. Grandpa found a scarf from the storage ring to cover her head to make her feel better, but the pain of the sand hitting her face was inevitable. When will this road be over?

Xiao Tianjian smiled bitterly: "It won't be long, I guess it's almost halfway through now, as long as seven or eight days..." Before he finished speaking, another gust of sand came, his mouth was full of sand, bah After a long time, he had no choice but to sigh and shut his mouth. He hadn't walked through the desert in spring before, it was the windy season, so he had to endure it.

However, God seemed to be joking with him. One evening, just after they set off, the northern sky suddenly seemed to be stained with blood, and a dark red cloud quickly rushed towards them. The way forward is coming ~IndoMTL.com~ At the same time, the wind is stronger than ever.

Ming Na panicked and grabbed Xiao Tianjian's cuff: "Grandpa, what is that?" "It's a desert storm." Xiao Tianjian replied in a deep voice, he steered the horse under him, and ran forward at a faster speed. They were safe as long as they ran behind a jutting wall about three kilometers ahead. Before the wall, there was not even a larger stone to be found at the foot of the mountain on the left.

However, things backfired. I don't know if the storm was moving faster, or the horse was already weak. When the storm was about to hit, they were still nearly a kilometer away from the mountain wall. Xiao Tianjian knew that he couldn't delay any longer. , had to ride the horse up the hill on the left, hugged the granddaughter to the ground, and then dragged the horse to hide behind a rock the size of a door.

Ming Na only felt that the wind was blowing sand on her face and body, and the veil had long since been scraped. She could barely breathe, and could not even open her eyes, so she could only put her head down. Buried in Grandpa's arms.

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the world is full of yellow sand. Xiao Tianjian hugs his granddaughter and buries himself behind the stone, but the reins in his hands are getting tighter and tighter. The horse, who had nowhere to take shelter from the wind, neighed and struggled frantically. He was about to be unable to hold on to the reins, so he could only temporarily let go of the child, and tried to pull the luggage off the horse's back, but was interrupted by the rubble from the wind. With his efforts, the reins were broken.

He thought that there was nearly five days' worth of drinking water on the horse's back. He was about to catch up, but he heard a scream from his granddaughter. When he turned around, he found that the rock was shaking. He swooped over to protect Ming Na under the shock. And that horse had long since disappeared into the wind and sand.
