"Brother Gu, if you had to fight him head-on, you would win or lose almost 10% of the time."
I frowned.
"Fight with death, 50%.
If he also fights with death, 20%."
Gu Xinlie said in a deep voice, but there was no discouragement in his eyes.
Instead, he burst out with a strong fighting spirit.
I remember Gu Xinlie I have been told before that people who use swords must put life and death aside from the moment they hold the sword to kill the enemy.
Because only with the determination to die can one have a strong heart.
After I found the water source, it was almost evening.
When I returned to the gathering place, I found that Lin Muye and Hua Mulan were missing.
I frowned, looked at the people eating around the fire frame, and said aloud : "Where are the Lin family members?"
"I don't know what trick that kid used, but he suddenly disappeared in front of my eyes.
I searched for him for a long time and couldn't find him.
It seems that he must have left first."
Wang Jianggan frowned.
"It doesn't matter.
When I came out for the trial, the head of the family told me that the Lin family is unreliable.
Fortunately, we also have a map in our hands.
It is only a matter of time before we find the ancient city of Loulan.
I think it is better for us to live in this oasis today.
One night, wait until tomorrow morning, what do you think?"
The middle-aged man bit the penis on his hand and looked at us.
After being silent for a while, I nodded, and then said to Liu Xuance: "Brother Liu, go kill those two camels, drain the blood, roast them and take them on the road.
I'm afraid we won't have enough time to go to Loulan this time.
We Should be more prepared.”
"It's easy.
Lend me the knife."
I handed the moment knife to Liu Xuance and asked him to slaughter the two camels.
We are now in the hinterland of the desert.
Although the camels are still useful, they have obviously become a burden.
Furthermore, how many days will this trip to Loulan take?
, none of us knew that it would be very troublesome if we didn’t prepare some food and water in advance.
"He's strong."
Looking at Liu Xuance's back, Cao Zijian suddenly said something.
"Master, Uncle Xiang said he is the Imperial Master.
Shouldn't the Imperial Master be very powerful?"
The woman named Hongxiu nestled in Cao Zijian's arms, holding the ancient sword wrapped in animal skin, and came out asked in a voice.
Cao Zijian smiled softly and said nothing.
"Are you interested in a fight?
I really want to know which one is stronger between my sword and your sword."
Gu Xinlie looked at Cao Zijian and said coldly.
At this time, his eyes were particularly fiery, like a flower picker who saw a young girl with yellow flowers bathing and changing clothes.
Cao Zijian glanced at Gu Xinlie, pondered for a moment, and then said: "When I go back this time, I will have a chance to fight you.
You are very interesting."
"I'll wait for you."

After Gu Xinlie said this, he closed his eyes and spoke softly.
"Uncle, let's have a fight," Wang Jiangqian rolled his eyes and said with a grin.
"Damn it, who are you calling me uncle?
Didn't you see, little brother, I look more like a flower when I'm young?"
The sloppy middle-aged man wiped the oil stains on his mouth and said with eyes wide open, with a look of displeasure on his face, but he said After saying this, not only I was happy, but even Cao Zijian couldn't help laughing, and the woman in his arms was giggling happily.
"Don't talk nonsense, fight or not."
Wang Jianggan rolled up his sleeves and hummed.
"No fight."
The slovenly middle-aged man said even more simply.
"Damn it, aren't you a coward?
In this way, we can get close together and I don't need a crossbow."
Wang Jianggan said with his eyes widened and his voice was very funny.
"No beating."
The slovenly middle-aged man gnawed on the penis in his hand with joy and said vaguely.
"Look at your elder brother, then look at you.
It's such a shame, really, Mr.
Lin, don't you think so?"
Wang Jiangqian sighed sadly, then turned to look at me, I touched my nose, and Didn't say anything, just smiled.
After Liu Xuance finished slaughtering the camels, he removed some of the inedible meat, roasted it and packed it into three backpacks.
However, the food could only support our journey for the next few days.
If we failed to leave this desert before the deadline, I'm afraid I will become a withered bone in the yellow sand.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, the desert was extremely cool.
Some underground insects and young animals emerged from the ground and began to greedily breathe the moisture in the air.
After a few of us woke up, we washed them with a puddle of fresh water from the oasis. faces, and then gathered around to look at the map.
"Going in this direction, you can reach Loulan Ancient City at almost noon, or evening at the latest."
Xiang Zikang clicked on the mark on the map and said.
"Not necessarily.
There is a lot of quicksand in the desert.
We can take this shortcut.
Although there are many dangers, there is no quicksand.
What we encounter along the way are just some animals."
Liu Xuance chose another path.
Now we Due to difficulties, it was impossible for the two groups to go separately, but they had a dispute over the choice of path.
Fortunately, after some arguing, Liu Xuance won, so we packed up our bags and started heading to our destination.
The road we chose is a shortcut.
According to the map, there is no quicksand, which is much safer.
However, there are a lot of poisons on this road.
Desert lizards, rattlesnakes, and sand boas are fortunately not social animals.
As long as Unless we encounter desert army ants, we won't be in much danger.
Along the way, except for the hot weather, we really didn't encounter any danger.
After walking for more than two hours, the sun gradually rose and the surrounding temperature became hotter.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued walking forward.
Not long after, a dozen small sand dunes appeared in front of us.
These mounds of soil were only slightly higher than the ground, as if something was buried underground.

At first we didn't pay attention, but as we continued to move forward, But I found that there were more and more of these sand dunes, there were hundreds of them.
This made me think deeply, where exactly is this place and what is buried under the dunes?
Just when he thought of this, Wang Jiangqian suddenly said: "Master Lin, there is a lot of rancid smell around here."
"There are still a lot of dead bones."
Cao Zijian picked up a dry arm bone from the sand under his feet and said aloud.
"It should have been done by a rattlesnake or a desert man-eating lizard.
There have been legends about man-eating lizards in Lop Nur a long time ago, but they have never been confirmed.
Rumor has it that they are monsters similar in size to Komodo dragons.
They cause some murders and are very dangerous.
Normal."
I rubbed my heated temples and analyzed.
"Then what is under these sand dunes?"
Wang Jianggan stepped on the soft sand dunes and said.
"I don't know."
I shook my head and said honestly.
But the moment Wang Jianggan stepped on the sand dune, he heard a rumbling tremor, and the sand dune gradually began to bulge upward.
"Grass, quicksand."
Wang Jiangqian quickly took two steps back and stepped on several dunes in succession.
"No, it's not a sand dune.
There's something in the sand.
Back away!"
Just when the thing in the sand was about to come out, Gu Xinlie suddenly shouted and quickly took a few steps back.
Then the bulging bulge of the sand dune suddenly expanded, and then exploded with a pop, as if the sand layer was blown open by a small explosive buried in the ground.
At the moment when the dune exploded, countless people A large red-gold ant emerged from the ground like a fountain.
It was so dense that my scalp went numb.
One foot can crush dozens of them to death, and there can even be a "clicking" sound coming from the soles of the feet.
It can be seen that the carapace of these ants is also very hard.
The cruel living environment of the desert has allowed them to evolve into the top social creatures.
At first glance, there seemed to be thousands of red-gold ants.
Each one was about the size of a little finger.
There was a crack on the back, and the tail was slightly black.
The two large jaws were golden yellow, and the sickle-like shape made people shudder.
If you say There are only one or two, so maybe we won’t be too scared.
But if thousands of these ants all crawled on us, they would probably turn us into withered skeletons in an instant.
I finally knew what the rotten smell here and the skeletons were all about.
Now Come to think of it, it's really scary.
But something that makes me feel even more desperate is still happening.
As the first sand dune explodes, the entire nearby sand dunes all bulge one after another, and then explode, followed closely by ants like a torrent of river water.
Swarming out from the ground, in less than a moment, the team of thousands of ants expanded to tens of thousands, and this number continued to increase.
What we can do now is to retreat desperately towards the rear.
This is no longer something that human power can stop.
During World War II, Germany's excellent military was lost to army ants.
They even had flamethrowers and machine guns at that time, but we didn't even have a shovel in our hands.
"These are gold-eating ants.
Their mouths contain a lot of formic acid.

Don't be touched.
If one bites you, the other ants will attack you with all their strength.
Even elephants and rhinoceroses will attack you with such intensity.
I can't bear it."
Xiang Zikang shouted while scratching his neck.
I looked at the roaring red-gold sea tide, and I couldn't help but feel a kind of fear in my heart.
This group of army ants is probably the most powerful biological population in the desert.
Wherever they go, there is truly no grass. , even quicksand has no way to deal with them.
Rattlesnakes and young insect lizards hiding underground can be easily found by them, and then swallowed up instantly.
I swallowed, this was out of my understanding of ants.
Although we were well prepared this time, we did not bring explosives.
At this time, there was no other way but to escape.
But this group of red-gold terrifying waves chased behind us for a while, but suddenly stopped, as if they were blocked by something, and they overlapped each other one by one.
I felt very weird and wondered what was going on.
I had never heard of army ants stopping.
"The wind is picking up."
At this moment, Cao Zijian's voice suddenly sounded:
