Chapter 248

The sudden screams frightened everyone, and they panicked.


The strong wind swept the torch, only to see the flame fluttering and swaying, and it went out!

In the dark sand cave, you couldn't see your fingers for a moment, and the people in the horse team panicked and shouted loudly, and they became a mess.


"Quick, light the fire!"


"Dead, San'er is dead!"


"Snake, there is a snake!"


Shouts came one after another, and no one in the violent sandstorm could hear who was shouting what.


There seemed to be great danger looming in the black-painted sand cave, and a scream was heard from time to time, and a trace of blood blew in the wind and sand.


As the crowd dispersed, Xueyi was blown tottering by the sand wind blowing from the openings on all sides.


Xue Yi tore off her face scarf and called Qing Nu anxiously.


Not ten steps away, Qingnv could be heard loudly to stop everyone from panicking, calling Xueyi's name from time to time.


Xue Yi responded while trying to get closer to Qing Nu's direction.


"what!"


Another scream came from the dark sand cave, and the horses in a group were startled, galloping, neighing, and scurrying around crazily!


Xue Yi struggled to move, holding her frantic heartbeat, trying to grab Qing Nu's hand in the dark.


Xueyi was very anxious and shouted loudly: "Mother! Mother!"


"Don't come here, Yuki!"


Qing Nu's voice came along with the wind and sand, Xue Yi heard that it was just a few steps away, and she was about to step forward happily, but Qing Nu stopped her loudly: "Xue Yi, don't come here, there are scorpions in this sand cave !"


scorpion! ?

Xue Yi was really startled.


It is not uncommon to encounter scorpions in this deserted northern land, but in this dark sand cave, it is undoubtedly very dangerous. If one is accidentally bitten by a poisonous scorpion, the consequences will be disastrous.


Xue Yi suddenly opened his eyes wide in shock, a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he shouted loudly:

"Mother, you were bitten by a scorpion?!"


"No, but there are scorpions around my feet, Xue Yi, stand there and don't come over!"


Xue Yi breathed a sigh of relief but did not relax his vigilance. In this chaotic scene, he followed the faint light, which was probably the light from the night pearl. Through the dense sand wind, Xue Yi could roughly see A few steps away, the silhouette of a young girl.


"Mom, don't move, I'll help you right away!"


Xue Yi tore off the cotton gauze, randomly grabbed a man in the cavalry and shouted: "Wine, give me wine!"


Almost all the men in the cavalry carried wine jugs with them, and after Xue Yi shouted sharply, the man quickly handed the wine jugs to Xue Yi.


Xue Yi bit off the lid of the wine, sprinkled it on the long and thick cotton gauze face towel, and took out his own fire pocket. The fire pocket flickered in the strong wind, but just a cotton gauze towel sprayed with spirits, a little fire was enough , the fire burst up all of a sudden, the dark and chaotic sand cave was in a mess, a ball of flames blazed red fireworks in front of Xueyi, "Everyone took off their coats, poured wine and started a fire !quick!"


Xue Yi yelled loudly while sweeping the burning cotton cloth towards the swarm of scorpions around the young girl.


The men in the cavalry were men after all, and after seeing Xue Yi's actions, they all regained a trace of rationality from their panic, and immediately imitated Xue Yi's method to start a fire.


"Mom, have you been bitten?"


The young girl jumped out of the scorpion encirclement in the flames, "I'm fine, hurry up, everyone get out of the sand cave!"


A group of people dragged the horses and dragged the person bitten by the scorpion, and quickly retreated to the outside of the sand cave against the strong wind and sandstorm. The cotton cloth sprinkled with strong wine caught fire and quickly burned to a pile of ashes.


There are poisonous scorpions inside the sand cave, and hurricane sandstorms outside the sand cave.


Before they walked out of the cave, the strong wind blowing on the face made people unable to open their eyes, and the tall and strong horse was blown to the point of falling. If the horse's rein was not pulled tightly, it would almost be swept into a deep cave by the wind.


The fine sand and dust cover the sky and cover the sky, like a huge impenetrable black net, tightly trapping you and suffocating, the horse is flying backwards, and there are boxes, stones and other objects on the horse-backed carriage in the strong wind from time to time. Come with the wind.


"Beware!"


A saddle tied to the horse's back was blown away by the wind, and Dangkong was hitting Xueyi, Xueyi couldn't open his eyes, and could only hold on to the protruding rock beside him to prevent himself from being blown down by the wind.


From time to time, something would hit her, causing her to feel unbearable pain, and suddenly a powerful arm in the darkness pulled her firmly.


The next moment, she only felt that she had rolled into the sand and was hugged tightly by a chest. There was a loud noise behind her ear, and the box hit the rock and burst open.


The horse neighed beside his ears, as if he had been knocked down by the wind, and Xue Yi could touch the mane on the horse's belly with his hand.


The overturned horse probably blocked some of the storm. She tried to open her eyes, but she was afraid to open them.


This taste!

This breath!

Impossible, how could it be him! ?

Xue Yi felt very dizzy, and reached out to wipe it, and wiped sticky wetness on his forehead.


She smelled a bloody smell at the end of her nose, and she let out a muffled snort of pain, only to realize that her scalp had already been smashed by a stone blown by the wind and sand.


The suffocation of the air made her nearly faint due to lack of oxygen. Coupled with dizziness and loss of physical strength, Xue Yi's consciousness began to sink into the darkness.

Warm and cool palms held her face, and the cries of concern floated into Xue Yi's mind like a dream.


"Feng Lang."


is it you.

is it you.

is it you.

-----------------------------


The morning light of dawn shines on the earth, the cold of the night fades away, and the heat of the day begins again.


The storm blew all night, and fine sand and dust and rocks buried everything.


"Girl, girl, wake up!"


Xue Yi woke up faintly, and what imprinted in her eyes was a simple and joyful face.


Holding her swollen forehead, she stared blankly at the face in front of her, "Baby Mountain?"


Baoshan is the second son of the uncle who leads the horse team.


"Fortunately, it's fine, it's fine!"


Baoshan chuckled, and the simple eyes on his dark and masculine face were shining brightly and piercingly.


"Wait a minute, your head is broken, wait for me to bandage it up for you!"


Baoshan enthusiastically tore off a piece of fabric and was busy wrapping up the snow clothes.


Xueyi grabbed Baoshan's hand to stop Baoshan's movement, "Baoshan, no need, I have the medicine myself, just take the medicine and it will be fine."


Baoshan watched Xueyi grab his hand, his face flushed red, and he patted himself after hearing Xueyi's words:

"That's right, I almost forgot, you know medicine, you should take medicine if you are injured, you should take medicine."


Xue Yi got up from a pile of sand, her hair was already covered with a thick layer of sand, and she was in a mess.


Baoshan hurriedly supported her to stand up, Xueyi looked at Baoshan's smiling face and suddenly felt very disappointed.


It seems that last night was just my hallucination, it should be Baoshan who saved her, right?


How could Shangguan Fenglan appear here?


At this time, Xue Yi didn't have much mood to recall what happened last night, she thought of Qing Nu, and looked around.


The entrances and caves of the sand caves are full of people who were almost buried by the wind and sand, and the horses and objects were scattered all over the ground. Some horses woke up and jumped up from the ground with their mouths full of gravel.

One after another, people climbed up from the sand.


Xue Yi staggered and rushed to the outside of the sand cave to look for the figure of Qingnu.


However, the inside and outside of the sand cave were too chaotic. After a night of wind, everyone was covered in sand, and no one could see clearly.


Suddenly, a hand grabbed Xue Yi's ankle.


A pile of clothes on the ground was lifted, and the face of the young girl was exposed in the sand. The young girl sat up from the ground holding Xueyi's ankle, "Xueyi, you are hurt."


Xue Yi squatted down, her eyes faintly revealing worry.


She hastily looked the young girl up and down a few times, and sighed.


"You, are you okay?"


The young girl looked at Xueyi, with a strange light in her eyes, she climbed up from the sand with Xueyi's support, "I'm fine, I just sprained my ankle."


Xueyi and Baoshan helped Qingnv go outside the sand cave, and found a rock to sit down and rest.


Xue Yi looked at the mess and began to check everyone's safety one by one.


Quite a few people were injured, but fortunately they were not serious. Five people in the cavalry were bitten by scorpions. After this night, they were buried in the wind and sand and died.


Baoshan helped Xueyi to bandage the wounds of those injured, and the people in the horse team began to pull the horses and the messy food and luggage blown by the storm in the mud.


Seeing the scorching sun overhead, the group faced serious problems.


water!

"Oh, it's not a good thing. We didn't have much water in the first place, but now we're spilling it all over the place. Without water, we all have to die!"


"Father, don't worry, we can always find a way!"


Baoshan tried to comfort his father.


"Stinky boy, what do you know? If it wasn't for you to have a good life, why are you so hilarious? I really shouldn't have let you come with me. Well, if something bad happens, how can I feel sorry for your dead mother? .”


"Then you can cry, have you forgotten the kindness Madam has shown us?"


Baoshan didn't bother to care about his father crying and mourning there, his hands were nimble and kept on helping Xueyi get things, and secretly hid half a pot of water for Xueyi to use.


"Uncle Zhang, how much water do we have left?"


Xueyi asked.


"Not much, there are only six pots left. We have more than ten mouths and horses, and we can only last for two days at most!"


Two days

Xue Yi wiped his sweaty cheeks and looked at everyone.


Injured and injured, tired and tired, if this continues, if you continue to get lost in this barren northern land, I'm afraid you will really lose your life.


Xueyi was panting for heat, and the scorching sun made him dizzy.


She stood up and checked the water and food, thought for a while and ordered:


"We don't have enough water. Without water, we can't last long in such a hot wasteland. Please try to eat less pancakes and corn buns. These foods will only absorb the water in your body faster. Throw away unnecessary things, Lighten the load as much as possible, leave only food and water, let the wounded ride on the horses, and the others lead the horses, we can't delay, either find water, or find a way out."


"no!"


At this moment, Qingnv interrupted Xueyi's words:


"We can't leave. The tomb of King Mobei is in this northern land. I finally came here. I will never leave easily!"


Xue Yi was a little angry immediately, "Mother, do you really want to lose your life for the mausoleum?"
