Stars hang high in the night sky, and the night cave of Gepitan is so clean and clear that it is intoxicating, as if a piece of deep purple crystal wraps everything in it. Looking up, the field of vision is clean, and only the pure starlight is shining.
.
It is more than a hundred miles away from Iron Cliff Battle Fortress. It was already afternoon when Lin Qi and others set out, so the sky darkened not long after they walked out. The Gobi Desert at night is dangerous, with all kinds of poisonous insects and
Some strange monsters will come out of their lairs to look for food. Even the most experienced travelers will choose a camping location as soon as night falls.
This is a pile of stone pillars that suddenly appeared on the Gobi Desert. The stone pillars like screens are sparsely scattered around. The widest stone pillar is more than thirty meters wide and more than six meters high. Lin Qi and his party are here.
A blanket was spread under the stone pillar, a bonfire was lit, and a pot of milk tea was simmering on the fire. Several beautiful women were carefully heating the barbecue brought from the Iron Cliff Battle Fort.
Different from the women of the Western continent, the women of these nomadic tribes have soft melon-shaped faces, high nose bridges, large watery eyes and delicate lips. Their lips are often a light water color, very soft and elegant,
It is very different from the hot red lips of women in the Western continent. Perhaps it is due to the nomadic life all year round, but the bodies of these women are very agile and powerful, just like a female leopard with graceful lines.
By the way, their skin is the same light wheat yellow as Lin Qi's, but slightly darker than Lin Qi's. Of course, there are also the best beauties among them. Their skin color is as fair and shiny as the best white jade.
But beauties like this are extremely rare on the Continental Bridge. Their skin cannot be well maintained due to sandstorms and other harsh natural environments.
Lin Qi was leaning against a stone pillar, with her legs raised and smoking a cigar.
Abu's tribe is located on a grassland more than 1,300 miles to the east. It is a tribe very close to the western continent. The Huangsha Khanate to which he belongs is one of the top ten major forces on the Continental Bridge.
There are millions of warriors who wear armor and control strings and are good at fighting. The people of these nomadic tribes mount their horses to serve as soldiers and dismount their horses to serve as people. Therefore, their warrior ratio is extremely high, and each major force has a very large number of troops.
What interested Lin Qi was that the great wizard of the temple worshiped by the Kusha Khanate was an unfathomable ancient thing. Lin Qi roughly estimated that the Huangsha Khanate could gain a foothold on the Continental Bridge and control a huge territory.
, there must be a lot of high-level forces in his country.
At the very least, the Huangsha Khanate faced threats from both the Western Continent and other nomadic forces. Without a few powerful characters in charge, they might have been annexed long ago. So Lin Qi found Abu and his party.
, prepare to establish relations with the senior officials of the Huangsha Khanate through them!
The most lacking strategic material for the nomadic tribes was metal, and Lin Qi happened to have a huge amount of metals on his hands, and even a large amount of magic metal. While Lin Qi was puffing away, he was secretly planning to use the Yellow Sand Khanate
With his own strength, he killed all the filial sons and grandsons sent by Yun Jun. I wonder if Yun Jun will be heartbroken?
Xiong Wanjin and Jiugong had fallen into a deep sleep. They slept deeply, and their snores sounded like thunder.
Hua Li Hua Li squatted on the top of the stone pillar obediently, gnawing on the dried meat and looking around mischievously. The little devil Hua Li Hua Li had a strong sense of crisis, and he felt uncomfortable with any place.
Safety. Therefore, he has become the most responsible sentry around Lin Qi. As long as he arrives in a new place, Hua Li Hua Li will definitely find out the surrounding topography immediately, figure out several retreat routes, and then perform his duties
sentry patrol.
This little devil is very useful.
Lin Qi smiled shamelessly. Lin Qi was a little embarrassed when Huali Huali took the initiative to provoke extra workload. He was thinking about whether to give Huali Huali a salary increase. After so many years,
He hasn't paid this guy a serious salary yet.
Alda and the donkey were squatting by the fire, each with saliva hanging from the corners of their mouths, staring at the curvy bodies of the women who were preparing dinner. Alda murmured to herself in a low voice: "Tonight
I can definitely get one! With my handsomeness, strength, and my outstanding charm, it’s impossible for them to resist my temptation! Oh, how long has it been since I touched these cuties?”
The donkey swallowed his saliva and cursed in a low voice.
All of these women have above-average looks, and they can be considered beauties. But Donkey doesn't care about looks. He likes girls with big breasts. But these women from nomadic tribes wrap their bodies with Houhou cloaks, and they don't care at all.
It is not clear whether their breasts are big or small. This is such a cruel thing for donkeys!
"Don't they need to take a bath? Oh, great gods, let them take off their clothes and take a bath. I like big breasts!"
Footsteps were heard in the distance, and Abu led several elders from the clan slowly towards this side. Having just set up camp, Abu had a lot to do. Those who were transporting grain, salt, and other goods
The camels must be settled carefully, and the camp's open and hidden sentries must not be relaxed. The Gobi Desert is not a peaceful place.
Moreover, he took the time to look at Asin, who was seriously injured by his own knife, and gave him a stern lesson.
After finishing these things, Abu happily carried a few bags of kumiss and came to Lin Qi with the oldest and most senior assistants among the accompanying tribesmen.
Because Lin Qi was a distinguished guest, the place where they camped was at the core of the pile of rocks, the least windy and safest place. The milk tea on the bonfire was already boiling hot and exuding a rich aroma. The barbecued meats on the women's hands were
There was also a squeaking and spraying of oil, and a strong aroma of food gradually spread in the air.
The nights in the Gobi Desert are cold, and the temperature drops quickly. On such a cold night, it is undoubtedly an extremely happy thing to be able to eat delicious barbecue and drink warm milk tea. At least Abu and others are smiling.
He sat next to Lin Qi, enthusiastically served Lin Qi a piece of barbecue, and filled a large bowl of milk tea.
"Oh, let's eat something to fill your stomach first!" Abu said enthusiastically: "I also have good horse wine here! Distinguished guest, I am really curious as to why your guard met with misfortune.
, you still have to go to our... king's tent?"
Abu's eyes flickered, he squinted and smiled, looking at Lin Qi enthusiastically.
With a helpless sigh, Lin Qi held his breath and drank the milk tea in one gulp. Then he swallowed the roasted meat into his stomach in three or two mouthfuls. Then he put down the tea bowl heavily and sighed heavily again: "This is terrible.
This is really troublesome for you, Chief Abu! There are some reasons here, related to family scandals, so... you understand!"
Lin Qi spoke vaguely, while Abu and several old people nodded repeatedly as if they suddenly understood.
Abu laughed loudly: "Oh, then you must have many brothers, right? Hahaha, this kind of thing is very common in our place!"
Lin Qi narrowed his eyes and nodded seriously: "Yes, I swear by the soul of my brother Arthur, he is really not a good brother. But what can I do? I can only rely on myself to manage step by step.
Well! One day, I will become famous!"
Abu laughed and nodded in admiration: "That's the truth. A man, a hero, a warrior, must use his own sword to carve out a piece of foundation! When my father died, I was exiled by my brother who inherited the family property. I
Didn’t it just take a group of brothers and spend fifty years to build up the current family property, and even merged with my brother’s family property!”
Patting Lin Qi's shoulder hard, Abu asked with a smile: "So, distinguished guest, how much goods did you bring this time? What kind of goods are there? If the weight is not large, I think our tribe can
If you eat it, you won’t have to go all the way to the king’s tent!”
Lin Qi squinted his eyes and laughed loudly with the typical stiffness of a fledgling boy. He glanced at Abu sarcastically and shook his head gently: "Is this your tribe? How many do you have?
Tribe?"
Abu stretched out both hands and shook his palms vigorously. He squinted his eyes proudly and said with a smile: "My Shatuo tribe has a total of 150,000 tribesmen and 30,000 elite warriors!"
Lin Qi spat out a piece of tea dregs with a sound. He looked at Abu sarcastically and smiled contemptuously: "But the goods I prepared are based on the scale of two million soldiers! You only have 30,000 soldiers.
, how could you possibly eat my goods?”
Abu was dumbfounded, and so were the old people around him.
Goods prepared on a scale of two million warriors? God, how much gold, silver and jewelry are these worth!
For a moment, the eyes of several people turned green, emitting a cold light in the night.
Lin Qi smiled lightly. He was about to speak, but he suddenly turned his ears, and his ears moved obviously. Abu and several old people were stunned, and they simultaneously grabbed the quiver on their backs.
He placed it on the ground and put his ear to the quiver.
Lin Qi heard a faint sound carried by the wind in the distance. Someone was probably approaching here ten miles away with great caution.
But Abu and others looked puzzled. They didn't hear any sound. With their ability, they could use their quivers to hear the sound of horse hooves several miles away at night, but now there is no strange sound at all.
What does Lin Qi mean by making that gesture?
But seeing Lin Qi's serious expression, Abu and the others did not dare to make a sound.
After about half a quarter of an hour, there was a sudden sound of swords clashing not far away. Then the sound of arrows cracking into the air shattered the tranquility of the night, and a rough voice yelled: "Sand Bandit, Sand Bandit"
...Do these *** thieves really dare to target us?”
A miserable howl was heard, and it was obvious that someone had died. (To be continued.)
