Although they had made sufficient psychological preparations, no one could have imagined that the chasing troops would come so quickly.
On the way to the no-man's land, if Qin Yining and Lu Heng hadn't planned the time to escape, they would have almost met the thousand cavalry.
The chasing team could only run after the Minobu group, and every time they couldn't find any other way to vent their anger apart from kicking over the remains of the campfire in the camp.
"General, these traitors of the Mino Department are not right! The direction they are fleeing is obviously the area of the no-man's land!"
The general who led the team waved his hand solemnly and stopped his subordinates' words, and his mind was already in a mess.
Obviously, the Minuo Ministry was forced to do nothing by them, and planned to take the baggage to the vast desert in the no-man's land to die. Even if I die, I don't intend to hand over the food and grass!
This group of slaves is refreshing, but what about the people who were ordered to track them down
Will it be possible to say to the Khan with a shy face at that time: "I'm really ashamed, we couldn't catch up with a group of old and weak soldiers with baggage, we drove them into no-man's land, we still dare not chase!"
If these words were spoken, none of them would want to live!
"Chase! Speed up! You must dare to catch up with this group before they enter the no-man's-land!"
Seeing the general panicked, everyone who had always been calm at the bottom also became anxious, hurriedly urging the soldiers who were eating dry food with cold water to quickly mount a chase.
When it comes to matters of life and death, who dares to slack off
However, they chased all the way from the camp to the direction that was about to enter the desert, and they did not catch up with half a figure.
Horses' hoofs stepped on the sand under their feet, watching the gust of wind blowing, and in the blink of an eye, a dune that was still quite large was turned into a flat sand, and it was impossible to trace the footprints!
Look at the vast desert in front of you. Everyone timidly tightened the reins, daring not to take half a step again.
The general who led the team turned ashes and shook his fist out of thin air, as if he would be able to dispel the suffocation in his heart.
"General, what should we do?" The lieutenant swallowed his saliva in fear as he looked at the desert of no-man's land where the landscape was changing rapidly under the bad weather.
If they said that they would continue to pursue them at this time, I believe that few of these brothers would have the courage to rush in.
Everyone knows the horror of this big desert in no man's land. The weather is bad, the topography is always changing, the flat ground can turn into a sand dune in a quarter of an hour, and maybe the sand can be buried alive after a night's sleep, and there is no way to move forward here. direction, because no one knows how far and what is on the other side of the no-man’s land.
Entering here is equivalent to half stepping into hell.
No one has the guts to challenge it.
"That group of lunatics from the Minobu!" The general spat fiercely, gritted his teeth, and said, "Set up defenses here, and guard the vicinity of the no-man's land, I don't believe that the Minobu people are not afraid of death! They We have the same number of people, maybe someone will escape soon, and if it is not good, we can catch up with their infighting! At that time, if we catch one alive and go back, we will have an explanation. "
"General is wise!" Everyone saluted, secretly relieved.
As long as they don't let them rush in and arrest people, anything is fine!
The chasing soldiers set up their formation in groups outside the no-man's land, waiting to open the big net to catch a lot of money.
But how could these people understand the stubbornness and unity of the Mino tribe
Qin Yining led the team to walk in a busy desert at this time. The strong wind rolled sand and drilled into the gap of the hood. Sometimes the wind was so strong that it almost knocked her down, but she still persisted, holding a tug in her hand. Horses with rice grains and water bags walked in front of the team.
Lu Heng also held the horse and followed her closely. When her slender body was blown away by the wind several times, she wanted to reach out to help her, but the hanging hand never landed on her. , but think of a guardian, just spread his arms to protect her.
Looking at the two people at the front of the team, Uncle Alhan, Brother Chaganbala and Brother Harbala all felt a little bit sad in their hearts.
They could all see Lu Heng's love for Qin Yining, but they could also see that Qin Yining's heart was tied to her husband, and she simply regarded Lu Heng as a trusted partner.
Now they embark on this journey together, and every step they take seems to be closer to death. At this time, it seems that it is superfluous to care about who is happy and who is accepting.
If they can leave this no-man's land alive, it is because God pity them and they should not die.
Although they were also afraid, when faced with a large desert that seemed like they could never reach the end, there was always a chill in their hearts, but none of them complained, because if they stayed in Dadu, maybe they would have been killed long ago. The Tar court tortured to death.
The nightmare of being enslaved, oppressed and exploited, and wanton slaughtered in the past finally woke up. They were able to control their own life and death, even in such a tragic way, as long as they had partners around them to persevere, they were all satisfied.
Just as Qin Yining and his party entered the no-man's land, and the chasing soldiers were stationed outside the desert into a large net, waiting for them to escape from it, Li Qitian stared at Li Guanwen in front of him in the imperial palace in the capital of Dazhou. , said: "What did you say? Say it to me again."
Li Guanwen was frightened and knelt down with a thud, and repeatedly kowtowed: "Sacred Lord, calm down, slave, slave indeed heard that Prince Zhongshun took his family's personal soldiers out of the city."
As soon as the words fell, Li Qitian grabbed the tea bowl and smashed it on the marble floor, only to hear a crisp sound, broken pieces of porcelain splashed on Li Guanwen's face, and several bloodstains were scratched, and he didn't dare to blink.
"Sacred God's anger!"
Li Qitian stood up angrily, and angrily slammed the memorial on the table with a big palm, "Pang Zhixi, what a Pang Zhixi! How dare you ignore me to such a degree! Disrespecting the decree once is a serious crime of beheading. If he wants his life, he actually dares to make a fool of himself! He should have run away with the soldiers of the government, is he trying to rebel? Come on, let me surround the Zhongshun Palace! I have to ask myself. Ask, how did the two old men of the Yao family and that bitch teach their son!"
The saint is angry, who dares to pretend that Miani said nothing
Li Guanwen was in a hurry, so he led people to actively prepare for the saint's departure from the palace.
At this time, fifty kilometers away from the city gate, Ji Zeyu, dressed in a red fox fur that was burning like flames, sat on the silver-white horse that Pang Xiao gave him, with a black whip in his white and slender hands, standing sideways in the middle of the path .
Pang Xiaole stopped the dark horse and smiled in surprise: "Alan? Why are you here?"
Ji Zeyu shook the reins and rode his horse closer. Although the Jinghu guards behind Pang Xiao looked calm, everyone tensed up.
Ji Zeyu frowned slightly, and with a majestic glance in his eyes, he felt uncomfortable looking at the elite tiger guards behind Pang Xiao, and his edge was much restrained.
"You're going to find Qin? Can't help it?"
Pang Xiaojian frowned as well, nodded and said, "I've been very flustered in my heart these few days. I always feel that if I don't go again, something will happen to Sister Yi."
Ji Zeyu frowned tightly and looked at Pang Xiao's thin and more angular face, pursed his lips and said, "Do you care so much about her?"
"Alan, she is as important as life in my heart."
"Well, didn't you say before that why a husband has no wife. Even if Qin's life is as good as possible, can her life compete with the lives of everyone around you? As soon as you leave, I'm not afraid of you. The family is implicated? I believe that even if something happens to Qin Shi, she hopes that you can live well, take care of your family and her parents, instead of going out of Beijing privately on impulse. You need to know Your current behavior is the inverse scale on the Holy Touch!"
Ji Zeyu is an indifferent person, and he speaks very little, but as long as he encounters Pang Xiao, he will change his old habits.
Pang Xiao turned over and jumped off the horse with a moving expression. The sable velvet cloak was raised, revealing his slender and powerful legs that were hidden under the cloak and wrapped in black trousers.
He threw the whip to Huzi behind him and walked towards Ji Zeyu.
Ji Zeyu also jumped off the horse, frowning and walking towards Pang Xiao.
His frown became more wrinkled, and there was a line on his forehead, and the fire fox fur made his jade-like complexion even whiter.
Pang Xiao sighed and patted his shoulder, and said in a low voice, "While the sage still trusts you, you should figure out a way out early. Don't wait until something really happens to be caught off guard."
Ji Zeyu glared at Pang Xiao: "If you don't act arrogantly, the sage will trust you. Now I'm talking about you, why are you talking about me the other way around?"
Pang Xiao smiled and said, "You still look like you were when you were young, and you just say it when you are happy, but you have to be stubborn."
Ji Zeyu stared at Pang Xiao again, but he didn't say anything to refute, he just asked, "Are you determined to go?"
"Yes. I must go, or I will regret it for the rest of my life."
"You are obviously not a person who is driven by emotions. Where is the calmness after so many years of experience? You said that you don't want to regret it for the rest of your life, but there are always many helpless things in life that make you have to make a choice. No one really never regrets it. of?"
"Alan, I know your kindness. I have sent my grandparents and my mother to Qin's house. My father-in-law knows when I go out. He should help me take care of things at home. "
Ji Zeyu saw that Pang Xiao had made up his mind and had no room for change, so he sighed and said, "If you want to go, then go. Don't worry, I will also take care of you."
Pang Xiao nodded emotionally, and then said: "You also have to be careful. Remember my words and make an early retreat."
Ji Zeyu smiled lightly, "Don't worry, I'm different from you, you care a lot, and I don't have any family, so I'm not afraid of anything."
"How can you really be at ease. No one would have imagined that the three brothers of us would get to where we are now. Alan, take care of you, I will try my best to come back as soon as possible."
Seeing Pang Xiao's solemn expression, Ji Zeyu also nodded, and handed the whip in his hand to Pang Xiao, "You take this, the Longxiang Army guarding the border is my old army, and nearly a hundred of my cronies have infiltrated. In that team, they all recognize my token. If you need it, take this whip to their leader Tao Jun. He is now a captain in the army. He is in his thirties and has a scar on his forehead. Still an old smoker, you can recognize it when you go there."
