After hearing Gai Nie’s answer, Xue Nu temporarily fell silent and stopped asking for details.
This person has passed away, so there is no point in exploring this kind of problem anymore.
Anyway, the probability of Sword Master Gaine deceiving her is almost zero, it is enough to know the reason.
After a while, the snow girl spoke again and asked, "What is Mr. Guy going to do after rescuing the child?"
"I will keep him with me and take care of him for the time being." Gai Nie replied, "After he is strong enough to be on his own, I should... let's talk about it then."
Gai Nie said half of the last sentence, but he thought of something and changed his words again.
The snow girl doesn't care about the content of the latter sentence, she pays more attention to the previous sentence.
"Take it with you..." Xue Nu's pure eyes turned and glanced at Gai Nie again, "Maybe this is Mr. Gai's promise to his old friend, but for me and the Mo family, taking care of this child is our responsibility.
."
"Besides, Mr. Gai is alone and walking alone. I'm afraid he is not suitable for taking care of children."
The meaning of Xue Nu's words is very clear, she is unwilling to hand her over to Gai Nie.
She wasn't worried that Gai Nie would hurt Tianming, but she had no reason to let Gai Nie take him away.
Jing Ke was the leader of the Mohist family, and he died in the Qin Palace under the orders of the Mohist giant. His orphans were naturally taken care of by the Mohist family.
Not to mention that Gai Nie is a bachelor. He is still wanted by the empire and is still the most wanted criminal. How can he be safe by following him at dawn?
Regarding Xue Nu’s statement, Gai Nie gave his own answer.
"It's not possible now." Gai Nie said concisely and comprehensively, denying Xue Nu's opinion.
"...Why?"
"Mr. Gai, can't you trust the Mohists?" Xue Nu asked.
Gai Nie tightened his hand on the sword and replied in a deep voice, "There are too many people staring at this child. The Mo family may not be that suitable for him."
"More importantly, there seems to be something wrong with this child."
"The problem...is it about your physical condition?" Yuki-onna immediately asked nervously.
"...Probably, it's probably going to be very difficult." Gai Nie wasn't sure either, so he only gave a vague answer.
"How do you know?" Snow Girl frowned and asked.
"The national master Gu Xun told Gai." Gai Nie did not hide Gu Xun's intention and gave the answer neatly.
"Then we should bring him back to the Mo family to find a solution." After learning that the news was obtained from Gu Xun, Xue Nu no longer doubted it and immediately said in a tone that left no room for doubt.
"If something happens in the morning, the Yin Yang family will definitely be the one to do something." Gai Nie maintained a calm mood and explained in a calm manner, "And the Mo family, although they can restrain the Yin Yang family in martial arts, they are not able to deal with the Yin Yang family's special methods.
, there may not be a suitable solution."
"In comparison, Gai thinks it's better for me to take care of the child."
The snow girl made a fist with her hand and exerted a little force.
Xue Nu didn't know much about Gai Nie's statement, but she felt that it was unlikely that he had deceived her.
In other words, Mohism is indeed inappropriate.
But... she wouldn't feel at ease if she was handed over to Gai Nie under such circumstances.
Snow Girl gritted her silver teeth and said, "I will take him to find Gu Xun myself."
"No matter what the problem is, he will definitely have a solution!"
"The National Master can indeed solve it." Gai Nie affirmed Xue Nu's solution, but immediately changed his mind and said, "However, he will not take action."
"If he is willing to take action, nothing will happen to this kid."
Gai Nie still has some understanding of Gu Xun's behavior pattern.
Even though he clearly intended to take care of Tianming, something went wrong, which already represents his attitude on this matter.
Of course, this also proves that even if something goes wrong with Tianming, it will not be fatal, at least not for a long period of time.
The snow girl's frown deepened, and her fingers turned pale when pinched.
Based on her understanding of Gu Xun, Gai Nie is right.
When this guy is willing to help, he will naturally take action without anyone opening his mouth. But when he is unwilling, begging him will probably be useless.
However, the snow girl did not give up this choice directly, and said forcefully, "...I won't know until I try it."
Ge Nie fell into silence completely.
He has no intention of continuing to argue with Yuki-onna.
Anyway, Tianming is still in the hands of the Qin army now, let’s wait until he is rescued.
Seeing this, the snow girl also chose not to speak.
In the dead silence, the two men drove their camels steadily to chase the sand boat.
………………
A few days later.
In the past few days, everyone has been immersed in the boring journey, whether they are riding a boat or riding a camel.
The three of them mainly bask in the sun and lie down every day.
Among them, Xiao Li is still called by Gong Shuqiu every day to inquire about the whereabouts of the dragon soul, but because of Wei Zhuang's orders, he ends up in silence every time.
After driving day and night like this, everyone finally approached their destination.
In a day or two at most, we can reach the entrance to Loulan deep in the desert, where it is said to be guarded by undead monsters.
During this period, Xiao Li has been paying attention to the position of the sand boat.
Because of his special status, Xiao Li can be said to be the most familiar person in the world with the desert environment.
Even facing the endless, indistinguishable desert sand, she could clearly distinguish her current location and estimate the distance to Loulan.
But now, she felt that it was almost time to escape from the Qin army's imprisonment and go their separate ways.
"Tianming, Shaoyu!" Xiao Li took advantage of the fact that there was no one around and called out to his friend in another cage.
At this time, the two of them were lying on the wooden deck because they were bored.
Hearing Xiao Li's shout, they all jumped up like a carp from the ground.
Tianming was the most lively, and he was the first to approach the railing and asked, "What's the matter, Xiaoli?"
Xiao Li looked around to make sure no one was there, then said, "It's time for us to find a way to escape."
"Ah!" Tianming exclaimed as soon as he heard this, "Are we almost there?"
He and Shao Yu didn't know the road well, and couldn't tell which was which in the desert, so they could only rely on Xiao Li to point out directions and distances.
The past few days have been so boring that the two of them didn't even bother to ask about the distance.
Shao Yu was so frightened by his voice that he quickly covered Tian Ming's mouth, lowered his voice and shouted, "Do you want everyone on the ship to know that we are going to run away?"
Tianming struggled and slapped Shaoyu's hand away, then said with a smile, "Am I not... too excited? Sorry, sorry."
Shao Yu rolled his eyes at him angrily, then turned to Xiao Li and asked, "Xiao Li, what are you going to do?"
"With little Xiu Xiu here, these two iron cages are not a problem. Do we need to make any preparations?"
"Well..." Xiao Li thought for a moment and replied, "Although we are not far away, it is best to get a small sand boat. Maybe we can arrive before them."
"There is one on this ship. When I walked past the edge of the deck a few times, I saw someone using it in the desert. It should be stored in the cabin below."
"Also, we need to get some food and drinking water. It doesn't need to be too much, just enough for us for a day or two."
