After the Legend Chapter 71: Into the tiger’s den

The sun is rising and the air is getting hot. This is the summer season in June. The hot sun is exposed to the sun, and the hot wind blows sand and dust on people's faces. If you are not careful, you will be a mouthful of sand, which is unspeakable. Riding on a horse and galloping in the desert, holding the reins with both hands, his face buried in his arms, only two eyes are exposed to see the road

She had some regrets in her heart. When she came out last night, because of the cold night in the desert, she stole a short fur robe from the drunk, but forgot to put on a cloak to protect the sun from the wind. There was almost smoke coming from her head, and sand and dirt kept pouring into her mouth, but she didn't dare to stop and rest because she was afraid of being chased, so she had to cover her head with a short robe, and she was sweating.

The dry food and water that I brought with me were limited, and I didn’t know if there would be any accidents along the way. Mingna didn’t dare to squander the hard-won water, so she was very spare and even gave me a little water, except for The grass that was originally tied to the horse's hooves is not fed any more

Ming Na didn't know much about horses, and she didn't have much experience with horses, so she neglected to walk for less than two days, and the horse suddenly became angry and spun around, no matter how Ming Na shook it. The whip tugs its neck or kicks it in the stomach, it won't go any further

Ming Na is so anxious she doesn't know what's going on in the camp now, whether the fire has been put out, whether the alcoholic has been burned to death, and whether the people there have found out that she has escaped, and if they are chasing it now , he certainly can not escape!

Minna pulled out the dagger and planned to give it two knives if the horse was disobedient. She had seen people in the camp use this method to train horses. When a hot wind blew, the horse suddenly neighed and stooped to the west. When she rushed, she was startled, and hurriedly grabbed the reins to try to stop it, but it went crazy and knocked her to the ground

She got up immediately, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Come back! Come back!"

The horse didn't listen to her and jumped over the dunes and disappeared. Ming Na hurriedly ran over and climbed the dunes with all her hands and was stunned.

Not far ahead, I don't know when a large valley of deep red to black appeared. The peaks are towering and continuous, but in the whole valley, there is not even a grass, tree or flower. Any creature, but there is a large deep blue lake in the valley, which looks very clear and sweet

Ming Na couldn't help licking her dry lips. She suddenly had the urge to run over and drink enough, but she quickly became alert again

How could such a large valley appear here? She had never heard of such a place in the desert, and she had just come from the northwest and didn't see it at all!

The mad horse was rushing towards the lake when it suddenly let out a tragic neigh. Minna watched in surprise as it plunged into the sand, struggling but the more she struggled, the deeper she sank. During the time, the sand around it was sinking, and soon it was buried under the horse's neck, and the horse only had time to neigh a few more times before being submerged in the sand

It's quicksand!

Ming Na once heard her grandfather mention this terrifying desert killer, and she couldn't help secretly glad that she was dumped, otherwise she would be in trouble, but she couldn't help but regret that she had no means of transportation and after she ran out of water, Can't eat horse meat and drink horse blood anymore? Are you going to dig for snakes and scorpions again?

A gust of wind blew, and the valley gradually faded. Ming Na's eyes widened again. After looking at the crimson and strange scenery, the same sand dunes as the surrounding were faintly revealed

Is it an illusion? !

Ming Na was relieved when she remembered the box mirage that her grandfather once mentioned. Fortunately, she was not tempted by the lake and ran over, otherwise she and the horse would end up the same way

In the desert, it's not just poisonous snakes, birds and beasts that need attention, there are many dangers in nature too

It's just the valley that I saw just now. Where would it be?

Ming Na turned around and picked up the short robe and dagger that had been thrown on the ground just now, touched the water bag and dry food on her body, and patted her heart. She still remembered the lessons she had learned while traveling in the desert with her grandfather, so she did not It's such a blessing to have something important on the horse!

Just now, she was staggered by the horse, and she found her original path again according to the sun's position, shadow and wind direction

Without a horse, she could only walk on her own. She stepped on rudimentary straw sandals, endured the heat and discomfort under the soles, and walked step by step. Although it was hard during the day, it was not hard, but it was less difficult at night. In order to snuggle with each other to keep the horse warm, she was a little uncomfortable from the cold, so she could only wrap her body tightly in a short robe, squat down to rest for a while, and then use the starlight to travel.

At noon on the third day, when the water was about to run out, she finally met someone. Behind those people, came to an oasis

This oasis is different from anything she has ever seen. The small lake in the middle is surrounded by gorgeous big tents, and the people who live are both rich and well-dressed, and ordinary people in simple clothes, some men, some Women, old people, and children, countless young women in revealing tulle dresses shuttled between the tents, bringing drinks, food and toys, and some black-clothed men patrolling back and forth, and sometimes loud laughter could be heard in some large tents, There is also music mixed in, and occasionally a few people dressed in oil and grotesquely walk by, which attracts the children to come close to see

Ming Na hid in the distance and observed it for a while, and concluded that this is probably the legendary entertainment oasis. Several people in the camp visited this kind of place. After returning, she showed off in front of her companions. I heard that some people thought that there might be people in the camp here. She hesitated for a long time before going around the entrance of the oasis and went to a few simple tents at the back. I just tidied up myself, pretended to be a timid little girl, and walked over

She claimed to be traveling with her grandpa, but grandpa went to another world halfway through (Minna: I'm not lying), now alone, tired, hungry and thirsty, begging kindly ladies to give her A bowl of water to drink

Several plain but neatly dressed women were saddened to hear this, and one of them hugged her and wept: "Poor child" took the initiative to bring water and food, and told Minna to eat slowly "don't choke"

Ming Na greedily drank a large bowl of water, and she tried to eat as full as possible, but there was still meat, except for snake meat and scorpion meat, she hadn't touched meat for a long time

A woman said: "Look at this kid who is thin and dark. He must have suffered a lot, right? Just stay with us and work. Although the wages are not much, it is no problem to eat enough, and there is a beautiful clothes"

The other woman glared at her: "Thank you for saying it! Can such a small child do that kind of thing? Let her do some cleaning work with us, my man is a cook, he said about the kitchen There's still no place to wash dishes!"

"The work in the kitchen is hard and tiring, how can such a small child endure it? I still hear that this child of mine is quite good, but his voice is not good. It should be no problem to support him and do the previous work"

Ming Na heard something wrong. Although she didn't know what kind of work she was talking about, it was not a good thing intuitively, so she hurriedly said: "Thank you madam, you are really kind, but I...I... I'm going to find my mom and dad, they're in Murray"

The woman who had brought her food and water before "Murray" interjected, "Just in time, Mr. Speen's family is going back to Murray tomorrow, so just ask their butler to give you a ride"

Minna said happily, "Thank you, ma'am!"

The other two women were a little embarrassed to hear this, and only turned back to their smiling faces after Minna's kind words and flattery

Mr. Speen is a wealthy businessman living in Murray, his family came to play, including servants, slaves and luggage, there were more than a dozen cars. His housekeeper was flattered by the woman a few times, and Minna was very After a few words of flattery obediently, he readily agreed

Mingna had a good night's rest. Early the next morning, she put on the clean clothes from the kind lady, brought dry food and water, and got into the carriage of the Speen's luggage. In less than half a day, she arrived in Murray.

She resisted her excitement and said goodbye to the housekeeper. Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar street scene in front of her, she couldn't help crying

When I traveled with my grandfather that year, I experienced bits and pieces in this border town, just like it happened yesterday, but there is a feeling of a previous life

The houses and streets here are still the same as they used to be. Ming Na found her grandfather's house according to her memory, but she was surprised

The owner of that house has long since changed. The current owner is a middle-aged rich businessman with a big belly. When he sees the poor, he looks down on his face. Ming Na is regarded as a thief by him. I just found out that the house was sold to the current owner a year and a half ago

Ming Na was a little confused. She remembered that when she was going to school in the Magic City, her grandfather once went back to Mengli, and he still lived in this house at that time, how could he sell it? who sold it? A year and a half ago, not long after Grandpa left?

Bite her lip, she ran to find the Xiao family business, but now there is a carpet shop on the old site of the business. It is said that the Xiao family business has never returned since it was withdrawn that year

Minna hugged her head and thought hard, who should she go to? Suddenly, she remembered a person - Frido

Although he deceived himself and hurt himself, when he left the place, he seemed to regret it very much. Maybe he would like to...

Minna found "Friedorph", however, although the business was still booming, the boss was not Friedo, and said to her: "That guy hasn't come back since he disappeared a few years ago. I was looking for him, and he owed me a lot of money." After that, he asked curiously, "Son, who are you? What's the matter with him?"

Ming Na turned and left in disappointment, without answering anything. She didn't find out. As soon as she left, the boss instructed his subordinates to keep an eye on the store. After walking to the store, he walked across the side alley and entered a house diagonally opposite. , facing the human in the dark: "A little girl with a face came to you just now, and I was sent away. It seems that those people are beginning to suspect that you have returned, and will call a child to test you recently. Be careful, Don't let anyone find out until the plan is successful"

"I will" The person in the dark turned around, revealing a pale, thin but handsome face, "Those people are getting more and more over the top, do they really think that I will never resist?" is the dividing line of the transition scene

Ming Na was walking on the street, she was at a loss for a while, what should she do?

Grandpa's house was sold to someone else, and the Xiao family business moved away. Even Frido wasn't here. She didn't know anyone here. How should I go back to East?

Across the street, there were two men talking in a low voice, and while they were talking, they watched her, Ming Na hurriedly bowed her head and walked into the crowd.

It will be too late, she must find a safe place to spend the night or she will fall into the hands of slave traders again

She used the night to cover her figure, carefully found a dead end, nested in the corner, ate some dry food, and planned to deal with it for one night.

"A girl from eight to sixteen years old?" A man from the alley said Shenna's breath, hurriedly holding her breath, trying to hide herself in the dark as much as possible

"Isn't it very close to Anke over there? Why do people want to find a place here?" The male voice just now continued

"Anke has people from Shaonan, and the monks from the Temple of Light, so there is nothing we can do to stop us, so we have to come to Mengli, but it is not easy to find Ai and good goods here. The people from the entertainment oasis robbed me, I will start the day after tomorrow, and there are still four people left, boss, please help me”

Minna's heart moved when she heard the words. If she went to Anke City, there must be a Xiao family business there, right? If it really doesn't work, try to find a way to go to the Magic City!

But how does she get there alone?

She looked at the two men talking at the entrance of the alley, and looked at the slave trader? hum

There was a sound in the alley, especially in the silent night. The men were startled: "Who?!" Then they saw a little girl about ten years old walking out of the darkness, looked at them timidly, and asked in a low voice : "Master, do you want to find someone to work?"

Two days later, Minna sat in the slave traders' carriage and walked on the road to the southern part of Wiesa. There were five or six girls in each carriage. Some people were crying, and some people were scolding the slave traders for cheating. All of them sat blankly with their hands tied behind their backs, but their feet were free

Minna moves her wrists from time to time, then peers out through the gap in the carriage. She doesn't care about the rope, it's not difficult to cut it, but she can sit comfortably (relatively speaking) She was happy to endure this little inconvenience when the carriage traveled so far and someone provided dry food and water.

Like the road that grandfather took her to, the carriage went south along the foot of the mountain, but after passing the mountain wall, it did not turn to the southeast. When the destination is an oasis, it is estimated that it is only ten to twenty kilometers away from Encore City

A large group of girls were driven off the carriage and locked in several stone houses. Some people were crying and screaming, and the people in the oasis were beating and scolding. The scene was a little chaotic, but Ming Na stayed quietly aside~ IndoMTL.com~ Looking coldly at the places where food and water are placed, as well as the location of the oasis terrain guards, etc., prepare for the escape

At this time, another group of carriages came and drove down a dozen girls of the same age. It seems that they were also sold. Mingna only looked at them a few times and turned her head

"You bastards! How dare you arrest me?! Do you know who I am?! I'm a princess! When my knights arrive, all of you will be finished!" There was a high-pitched voice, and Ming Na turned her head and saw that it was a little girl with blond hair and blue eyes, about eleven or twelve years old, as beautiful as a rose with dewdrops, but with red eye circles and The nose spoils her beauty a bit

"You're a princess? Then I'm a king, my good daughter, call Dad to hear it?" No one believed that a little girl in a commoner's costume could be a princess, and they all laughed at the girl for listening. , even more angry, pointed at a few slave traders and yelled at them. After being slapped a few times by those people, they became quiet.

The two groups of girls were disrupted and divided into several stone houses. Ming Na happened to be locked up with the "princess". When she saw the other girl, she was just crying in the corner, watching the food and water brought by the guards. Without even looking at it, I took an extra copy, walked to the other side, sat down, and handed it over

The "princess" glanced at the food disdainfully and turned her head: "It's dry and hard, I don't want it!"

Ming Na was not angry, she tore off the crust of the dry biscuit and ate it, and then handed it over: "The inside is not hard, eat it, you are hungry, you are the one who suffers"

The girl's eyes turned red: "Thank you." After taking the food, Ming Na handed over the water again, lowered her voice and asked, "I heard you say just now that you are the princess of which country are you?" /
