Chapter 256: In the Desert


Yang Fan's knife was no better than the sword of this Turkic soldier, but even weapons forged in the same furnace had different power in the hands of different people.

The use of speed, strength, and angle, as well as the choice of the slashing part when the weapon intersects, can turn the Divine Soldier into Scrap Metal, or the Scrap Iron into the Divine Soldier.

With one sword, Yang Fan cut off the Turkic soldier's knife, and even split his head in half.

As soon as the fierce Turkic soldiers saw Yang Fan's bold return to help, they all collected their bows and drew their waist knives, shouting and screaming like wolves and pounced.

They have more than a dozen people, and they like the feeling of grinding people apart.

"Sonorous and sonorous" Yang Fan swung his knife like lightning, knocked open three steel knives in a row, cut off a piece of horizontal flesh on the face of another Turk, and pulled the Turkic man he wanted to save to the horse with his hand.

As soon as he shook his hands, Yang Fan felt that the other party's palm was soft and soft, and the metacarpal bones were slender, some of which were not like a man's palm, and he couldn't help but be stunned, he had no time to think about it, the knife in his palm was lightly raised, and he picked up the two long knives that came from the stabs, his buttocks left the horse's back, his body probed, his arms were long, and he cut off the arm of a Turkic soldier with a "poof", and raised the hand holding the knife behind him, shouting: "Take it" When the voice came out, he thought that the person behind him might not be able to understand what he said, but the person behind him did not say anything, but caught the broken arm and held the knife in his hand.

Yang Fan was determined, and the two rode a horse together, and the two knives flew left and right, fighting with more than a dozen Turks.

In the melee, swords and guns are raised at the same time, Yang Fan can't use that divine martial arts like Fang Cai, the two sides are fighting together, and all moves are useless, all the most direct slashing and assassination, the contest is speed, strength and agility of reaction.

The two of them opened their bows left and right and cut the three of them off the horse, and when they looked back, they saw that Gao Sheji and the others had gone away, and there was only a faint black spot on the horizon, so Yang Fan dialed the horse and said, "Let's go" The two turned their horses out of the encirclement and fled, but they did not flee in the direction where Gao Sheji and the others fled, the enemy soldiers had not yet gotten rid of it, and Yang Fan could not lead the enemy over.

Seeing the two fleeing, it was known that the two were brave in a scuffle, and those Turkic soldiers did not dare to be confident of the crowd anymore, so they took off their bows and buckled the strings, and shot arrows at them, and the arrows whizzed around the two.

Yang Fan saw that the two of them were riding together, the horse speed was not fast, and the arrows were flying sideways, and if one was not careful, he had to be shot through by the other party's sharp arrows, and he was secretly anxious in his heart.

Tian Ainu behind him suddenly shouted: "Go that way, rush into the sand dunes, get rid of them first" At this time, she didn't hide her voice, Yang Fan heard the familiar female voice, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Anu, you are Anu" "Whoosh" Another arrow passed by, and Tianainu turned him with his elbow and said angrily: "Don't go quickly" Yang Fan didn't have time to ask any more questions, and immediately turned his horse and rushed towards the sand dunes, at this time, a large number of men and horses from the ancient transfer of Paiyagu also chased after him, and saw them and the pursuers rushing towards the sand dune area one after the other, and immediately followed.

Seven or eight Turkic soldiers pursued the dunes, and the rolling dunes had an excellent concealment effect, and their bows and arrows had lost their effectiveness in such terrain, and the Turks hung up their bows and arrows, drew their long knives, and looked around.

Suddenly, someone pointed forward and shouted, "There" When they heard the sound, they saw the shadow of a horse flashing and disappeared under the dune, and immediately picked up the horse and chased after it.

"Where are they again?"

Several Turkic soldiers stood on the sand dunes and looked around, the sand around them suddenly moved, splashed a large piece of sand, and attacked them with a head cover, behind the sand there were two pieces of snow and bright knife light, Yang Fan and Tian Ainu, who buried themselves in the sand, suddenly attacked together, and the two Turkic soldiers who were caught off guard dismounted, and the two flew on the horseback.

"Kill" The two of them spoke in unison, urging the horses forward, and the swords and swords on the sand dunes were slaughtered together.

A Turkic soldier whose sword was knocked off, and he hurriedly leaned back and dismounted, and only then escaped the danger of being disemboweled, and he rolled down the sand dune with a grunt, and got up in disarray, only to see a companion sitting on a horse, holding a knife in one hand and covering his throat in the other, and his body shook a few times, and suddenly he fell down the dune on his back, and slid halfway to stop, and blood gushed out of his throat.

The Turkic soldier crawled over with his hands and feet, reached out and snatched the steel knife from the hand of his dead companion, and carefully climbed up the sand dune, only to see the corpses strewn across the hill, and the two war horses in the distance had just crossed a hilly area.

He looked at the corpses everywhere in despair, and then turned his head to look back, only to see that their large group of pursuers had rolled up a cloud of dust and were rushing towards this place, "Anu, why are you here?"

Under a sand dune, Yang Fan, who stopped to catch his breath, looked at Tian Ainu dressed as a man in surprise.

After inspecting the contents of the sack on the horse's back, Aino turned around and said, "They don't have much water or food in their sacks, and we can't stay in the desert for a long time, because if there is a storm or a cloudy day, we will easily lose our way, and if we don't wait to go out, we will die of hunger and thirst." ” Yang Fan pointed to her lips and said, "Your beard" Tian Ainu's two beards had fallen off half of them in the fight, and only half of them were stuck to his lips, Tian Ainu reached out and tore off the half of his beard, glared at Yang Fan and said, "Did you hear my words?"

Yang Fan said: "Did that Jiang Gongzi ask you to spy on Shen Mu?"

Tian Ainu "snorted" and did not answer.

Yang Fan showed a hint of a smile and said softly: "I didn't expect you to be here, Anu, you will save me, I am very good" Tian Ainu suddenly interrupted his words and said: "You saved me, I just want to repay my kindness, don't talk about this, we have to take advantage of the fact that there is the sun now, and we can still identify the direction, and leave here quickly, otherwise we will be in trouble once we get lost in the desert." ” Yang Fan's understanding of the desert is far less than that of Tian Ainu, and he is not as cautious as hers, he smiled indifferently, walked up a few steps, grabbed the reins of the horse and said, "Okay, then let's do it now" As soon as he said this, Yang Fan's smile froze on his face, he was silent for a moment, took a long breath, turned his head to Tian Ainu and said, "I'm afraid we have to continue to flee into the depths of the desert." ” "How" Tian Ainu followed his gaze, and Deng Shi couldn't help but be stunned, and after a moment's pause, he hurried to the other horse and said loudly, "Let's go" In the distance, a mixed procession of knights consisting of horses and camels had appeared on several sand beams, it was not a caravan in the desert, there were no boxes of goods on the backs of camels, only a knight with a sword, a warrior sent by Bayegu to search for them.

The climate of the desert is like a baby's face, changeable.

In the evening of the same day, a strong wind blew, and the wind carried the overwhelming yellow sand, turning the whole world into chaos.

The wind and sand helped them, and Bayegu's pursuers completely lost their target, but they also got stuck in the desert and lost their way.

In the desert without stars, moon and sun, there are similar sand dunes everywhere, which cannot be used as a reference, and even if you are familiar with the desert situation, you cannot distinguish the north, south, east and west with just a pair of naked eyes without the help of external objects.

The night was dark, the wind was still blowing, and Yang Fan and Tian Ainu rested under the leeward sand dunes.

Although Yang Fan has lived in the grassland desert for more than two months, he rarely goes deep into the desert no man's land, occasionally enters the desert edge area, has experienced guides to arrange everything, and carries plenty of water and food in the team, so he has no idea how terrifying the power of heaven and earth in this desert is.

The two of them evaded the pursuers all the way, and fought against the wind and sand of heaven and earth, and they were exhausted when they came here.

The two horses were the guards of Bayegu, who had only gone out of the city to feed the army, so the guards had nothing in their bags for the long journey, neither sufficient water nor food, nor sleeping bags for camping in the wilderness.

Exhausted, Yang Fan wanted to sleep, but the night in the desert was too cold, and his leather robe was frozen hard, as if it had become a heavy armor, if he lay on the ground, I am afraid that he would become a frozen corpse before dawn, and he could only hold the horse's neck, snuggle up to the horse's neck, and stand and nap like a horse.

Yang Fan, who was half-asleep, was frozen awake, and when he woke up, he found that Tian Ainu was not asleep, she stood in the sand col stupidly, looking up at the gray and still windy and sandy sky, although the night was deep, and she couldn't see her appearance clearly, but from the lonely back, Yang Fan could feel the deep worry in her heart.

Yang Fan stood up, patted the thick layer of sand that fell on his body, and walked over, the weather here was something he had never seen before, surrounded by undulating sand dunes up to dozens of zhang, the wind swept over the dunes, making a wolf-like howl, and the lower part surrounded by the dunes was very quiet, and there was no wind at all.

Yang Fan looked up and could see the gray "night sky" faintly flowing overhead, but it was not the night sky, but the scene of the wind sweeping the sand and gravel on the top of the sand dunes.

Yang Fan pulled down the masked sand towel and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Tian Ainu said in a low voice: "The weather is very bad, I am worried that there will be no sunshine tomorrow morning." ” Yang Fan could hear a deep worry and a thick fear in her voice, and he didn't understand why this heroine who was full of martial arts, dared to track them to the Turks single-handedly, and dared to kill people in Xue Yantuo City, suddenly became so timid.

He frowned, and said disapprehantly: "We only have a day's journey into the desert, even if there is no water and food, we will not go back the same way, and we will not starve to death if we don't eat or drink for a day, not to mention that we still have two sacs of wine and some jerky." ” Tian Ainu shook his head lightly and said worriedly: "You don't know the desert, if the wind doesn't stop, if we can't see the sun and stars, we will probably get lost in this desert."
