The sand city at night was in a state of total silence. Originally, this time period should have been a time of feasting and feasting, but the city was not like this at first. Just because the water source was cut off, a desert oasis ended up in this state. Things in the world are unpredictable.
After leaving the City Lord's Palace, we walked all the way to the outside of the City Lord's Mansion. The lights inside the City Lord's Mansion were still bright, but when we arrived outside the City Lord's Mansion, the sky became dark. The moonlight was still so hazy, and the crescent moon was not bright.
"Tiedan, where is that quicksand river?"
In addition to the city lord's palace, Lin Ye turned around and asked Tiedan behind him. Then, under Tiedan's guidance, Lin Ye rode Zhufeng and ran all the way to the river. On the way, Lin Ye wanted to let Tiedan brother and sister
They found a place to rest and went to explore the situation by themselves, but unexpectedly, the brother and sister refused to leave Lin Ye. Now they regarded Lin Ye as their support, so they refused to leave no matter what.
Lin Ye had no choice but to take his two brothers and sisters with him.
When we got there, we bypassed the City Lord's Mansion and ran towards the back of the City Lord's Mansion. It was easier to walk along the main road and take a straight path.
It turns out that Liusha River is really within Shacheng. After walking for only a few minutes, I saw a strangely colored river in the distance.
Before he arrived, Lin Ye felt a cold air approaching. Looking around, the ground had turned pale. The color of the soil nearby was obviously very different from other places. The surrounding houses also showed a...
A sign of decay, the river water is green, but the houses and the ground have been eroded by the green river water and turned pale white.
"You two..."
Lin Ye originally wanted to tell them to stay away and go over to see what was going on, but as soon as the words left his mouth, Lin Ye stopped immediately, because he planned to go to a place, and the brother and sister definitely did not want to leave him, so he said
It's all in vain.
Between the two siblings, Lin Ye tried to stay as far away from the river as possible, looking at the flow of the green river from a distance, shaking the reins, flying forward fiercely in the wind, and disappeared into the night.
Half an hour later...
...
"Who?"
Seeing that he was almost at his destination, Lin Ye slowed down, but not long after Zhufeng walked slowly, he heard a burst of confused scolding. Lin Ye was slightly startled, and looked at a man in front of him.
The knight riding a tall horse like himself was holding a gun and pointing it at him.
"Are you a soldier from Shacheng?"
Lin Ye saw this man's attire and heard Sha Ya say before that many soldiers in Sha City were in the upper reaches of the Liusha River, observing the movement of the dragon, waiting for opportunities to kill it or drive it away. But until now
, so many days have passed, and the dragon still cannot leave. These soldiers are unable to complete their mission.
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, the knight's tone softened a lot, and then continued: "Are you coming from Shacheng?"
"Well, yes, I want to see that 'dragon'."
Hearing Lin Ye's relaxed tone when he mentioned the giant dragon, the knight's eyes suddenly flashed with surprise. He didn't know whether the immature boy in front of him was an idiot or a super powerful master. Usually when he mentioned the giant dragon, he didn't
There are only two types of people who show fear, one is those who are too stupid to know how scary the dragon is, and the other is the master who is not so afraid of the dragon's strength.
No matter how you look at it, you can't see how powerful Lin Ye is, but the knight obviously has a high IQ. Even if he can't see Lin Ye's strength, he doesn't dare to offend him until the matter is clear, so he says: "
Please come with me."
Before leaving, the knight looked back at the two children on Lin Ye's horse. He was even more confused. Did he bring two children as helpers?
Following this knight all the way upstream, I could tell that this knight was a sentry who specialized in guarding work late at night. He happened to meet me and took me to their camp along the way.
Sure enough, the horse galloped quickly, and in just one minute's journey, they had arrived at the camp where the Shacheng soldiers were stationed. Looking from a distance, tents were pitched not far away. The white tents were particularly conspicuous at night.
.
But the layout of this tent made Lin Ye discover some intentions, because the distance between the tent and the river was much farther than he thought, about one mile. Originally, this place was supposed to be an oasis, but now it has changed.
It has become a barren desert. I dare not go close to the river because I am afraid that the poison in the air will be inhaled into the lungs through people's breathing and cause unnecessary casualties. It is also a good idea to place the tents like this.
The water was still green, and when Lin Ye ran towards the tent, he didn't forget to look back at the river. This showed that the dragon was still upstream, and there should still be a short distance from where the dragon was.
In front of the camp, Lin Ye carried Hei Niu down, and he also turned over and dismounted. Then he took Tiedan off the horse and put Zhufeng away. Seeing that the previous knight also dismounted, he followed him and raised his hand to one of the ordinary knights.
Go to the tent.
Standing in front of the tent, the knight suddenly turned to Lin Ye and said, "Young knight, please stay until I inform you."
Lin Ye nodded to express understanding.
The knight stood outside the tent, bowed slightly and clasped his fists, raised his voice slightly and said: "General Leisha, there is a young knight from Shacheng, do you want to meet him?"
After a moment, a voice came from the tent: "Oh? Let him come in."
Hearing this, the knight turned around with a smile, spread his hands to Lin Ye, and said: "The general invites you."
Lin Ye nodded with a smile, took the two brothers and sisters with him, and was about to walk into the tent, but unexpectedly the tent opened on its own. At this time, a middle-aged man wearing heavy armor, strong body, and majestic weapons walked out of it.
The young man could tell that this man was the General Resha that the knight mentioned.
It's so late and he hasn't taken off his armor yet. This general is really dedicated.
Seeing Lin Ye, General Lei Sha greeted him with fists clasped in his arms, and said in a gentle yet dignified tone: "Little brother is from Shacheng? Please come in quickly!"
After saying that, like the knight before, he stretched out his hand and motioned for Lin Ye to come inside. Lin Ye smiled and answered yes, and walked towards the tent.
Inside the tent, the furnishings were extremely simple. Apart from a simple quilt spread out on a long wooden mat, there was nothing else. It was obvious that their march was indeed very difficult.
There was no chair, so he stood and talked. The general said: "The conditions here are simple. I hope you can forgive me for any slightness." After some polite remarks, General Leisha continued:
"What's going on in Shacheng now?"
"The people in the city are so hungry and thirsty that they have fallen into the streets. There are dead bodies everywhere in the city. I'm afraid they won't last long..."
At this point, General Lei Sha looked painful, waved his hand to signal Lin Ye to stop talking, sighed, and said: "I am ashamed of the people of Shacheng and my position as a general!"
Seeing General Lei Sha's guilty look, Lin Ye said: "General, there is no need to be so ashamed. The water source is poisoned, which is really the evil of the dragon. How can we defeat the general? Besides, the general is not as powerful as the dragon.
It’s really normal, there’s no need to sigh like this.”
Hearing Lin Ye's words, General Leisha suddenly became much more cheerful. However, if the dragon does not leave, the water source will not be restored, and Shacheng will not be able to resolve the crisis. If this continues, Shacheng will be a dead city.
Suddenly Lei Sha turned his attention to Lin Ye and stared straight at Lin Ye. Lin Ye felt a little unnatural when General Lei Sha stared at him like this. He coughed twice and looked away. Lei Sha
Hearing the sound, he reacted, his eyes flashing with light, and said: "Could the young hero be sent by the Lord of Shaya City to deal with the giant dragon?"
When Lin Ye heard this, he immediately exclaimed in his heart, why are the people in Shacheng so naive in their thinking? His thin body does not look like someone who is here to deal with a giant dragon. Ten of himself are not enough to fill its teeth.
When he left the City Lord's Mansion, he didn't tell City Lord Shaya that he would come all night to the upper reaches of the Liusha River. He came here mainly for the sake of the people in the city. In fact, whether he could break through the Tempering Tower was already a matter of fact.
It doesn't matter anymore, Lin Ye's current strength, even outside the tower, is still at a height that others can only dream of.
"General, you'd better take me to see the dragon."
Lin Ye did not say whether he could defeat the giant dragon, but directly made the request, and then looked at General Lei Sha's reaction.
General Lei Sha looked stunned, and then said: "It's getting late now, so we'd better wait until tomorrow morning to make a decision!"
Hearing what Lei Sha said, Lin Ye became a little angry and said in a serious tone: "Humph! If I was afraid of being late, I wouldn't have come all night. As a general, I should put the people of the city first. After such a big incident,
You should come up with a solution as soon as possible. If this continues, how many people will die in one night? Can you afford such a price?"
He had never thought that the young man in front of him would do something like this to him. Now when he heard it, General Lei Sha was immediately surprised on the spot, his mouth opened, but he did not say any words.
After a moment of silence, Lei Sha said: "What the young hero taught us is that we will leave now."
After that, Leisha picked up the two hammers placed aside and walked out of the tent. Lin Ye could see that these two hammers were Leisha's weapons, but there were not many people who used such weapons.
"General Resha."
After leaving the tent, Lin Ye called Leisha to stop. Seeing Leisha stop, he continued: "Please find someone to look after these two children. It will be very dangerous for them to follow."
After saying that, Lin Ye turned around and gave instructions to the two brothers and sisters behind him. At first, the two brothers and sisters were reluctant, but after Lin Ye talked a lot, the two brothers and sisters finally compromised.
Lei Sha found a soldier and stood guard at the entrance of the tent, and then asked the brother and sister to go to sleep in the tent. However, Lin Ye later found out that before he came back, the two brothers and sister had not slept a wink.
