Gulu~~
Lin Ziyao wanted to say that he was not hungry, but his stomach betrayed him.
"Go and eat. After we finish eating, I have something to talk to you about." Ye Yuxi hinted at Lin Ziyao behind him.
"Brother, there is too much mutton, and the brothers can't finish it. You have to help."
Behind Lin Ziyao, a big man held a plump roasted lamb leg and handed it to Lin Ziyao.
Lin Ziyao turned around and looked at the brothers who were smiling at him. Not far away, all the brothers were looking at him.
Lin Ziyao's eyes were slightly red, and he took the leg of lamb, "Eat! Let's all eat together."
Ye Yuxi looked at Lin Ziyao's twitching shoulders and smiled knowingly. This scene was very familiar...
…
Five whole roasted lambs were eaten by several big men in half an hour.
"Are you really willing to help us?" Lin Ziyao came to Ye Yuxi again.
Ye Yuxi nodded, and Xiaopang Long on the side interjected: "Of course we are not helping you in vain. You need to send someone to go to the sandstorm on our behalf."
"Is this the only request?" Lin Ziyao was surprised that a child could actually have the final say!
Ye Yuxi on the side nodded and acquiesced to Long Xiaopang's conditions.
"Okay!" Lin Ziyao agreed.
Ye Yuxi looked at the sky and saw that it would be dawn in a few hours.
"Go directly to the oasis." Ye Yuxi glanced at the energetic crowd.
With Lin Ziyao and the others leading the way, the journey would go much faster, at least they wouldn't have to lead the group with Long Xiaopang.
After traveling at night and half a day in the morning, it was almost noon that we could vaguely see the oasis ahead.
"That's right in front." Lin Ziyao pointed forward.
Bai Jinyi looked at the oasis, his eyebrows raised.
When we arrived at the destination, everyone's pace quickened a bit.
As he got closer and closer, Ye Yuxi's pupils shrank slightly. This oasis... didn't seem to be as poor as Lin Ziyao and the others said. At least, there was a carriage!
Although it is a carriage, it is not pulled by horses, but by camels.
"No, it's them!" Lin Ziyao's expression changed when he saw the carriage, and he quickly rushed towards the oasis.
"Hurry up!"
A dozen big men also rushed over.
"It seems that those people are here to collect things." Bai Jinyi came to Ye Yuxi's side.
"Go over and take a look." Ye Yuxi's voice was cold.
In the oasis, there is a small village.
Everyone was gathered in an open space, looking at a few people in gray clothes with fear.
"There is still half a month until the date for handing over the gold mines. In the first half of the year, the gold mines you handed over were reduced by 20%. Our palace master did not blame you. If you don't hand over the gold mines in the past six months, don't blame us for being rude!" The man in clothes stood on a stone and looked at the hundreds of men, women and children in the village.
"We will give you what should be given!" An old man in the village looked at those people with a gloomy face.
"Hmph, I'm passing by here to take a look this time. I'm afraid you guys won't be honest." The man in gray looked at the crowd with his jujube eyes.
Suddenly, the man in gray raised his hand and pointed: "Catch that girl over here. I'm telling you, hand over your things obediently in half a month, and I'll put her back, or else!"
"No! I won't go! Let me go!" A thin girl struggled to get into the crowd.
"Come here!" A man in gray clothes with quick eyes and quick hands grabbed the girl's wrist.
"Let Aina go." Lin Ziyao shouted and ran over.
Um
The leader of the man in gray looked coldly and looked to the side. When he saw Lin Ziyao, a disdainful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Who do I think it is?"
