Rong Zhen clenched his fists tightly. Someone actually took his people away right under his nose. There was no doubt that it must be Kedar.
The next morning, everyone set out again, but Qingxing was still in a daze and had no idea what had happened the night before.
"Miss, why do you all look so weird?" Qingxing got on the horse and looked at Gu Yunru, who didn't sleep well last night. There was still a dark circle under her eyes, but she didn't notice that someone was missing. She just felt that she slept very comfortably in the second half of the night.
"Didn't you notice that one person is missing?" Gu Yunru reminded her quietly. Qingxing looked around and shook her head, "No, General Huang and the prince are both here, and the soldiers seem to have already set out. They will probably reach the desert today."
Seeing Qing Xing speaking innocently, if he hadn't known the grudge between her and Kang Keren, he would have believed it and given her a blow to the head. Qing Xing screamed and quickly lowered her head, touching her head with an innocent look and said, "I know, Miss, I was just teasing you."
"You, I really don't want to talk to you anymore." Gu Yunru shook her head helplessly, hoping that Kang Keren was safe now. On the other side of the screen, Kang Keren was brought back to the cave. Everyone was about to enjoy her, but suddenly heard a commotion at the door. They thought it was the people from the inn who came back, and everyone immediately became alert.
"Who are you?"
Everyone looked at a person in purple tights standing at the door in panic. This person was neither male nor female, and it was unclear whether she was a male or a female. They only saw the cold murderous intent in her eyes coming towards them, which made them shudder.
"If you don't say anything, don't blame us brothers for being rude!"
The crowd raised their voices and walked towards her with swords in hand.
But before anyone could get close to her, the people in the row in front of her were unfortunately hit by a hidden weapon.
"The arrow is poisonous..."
A burly man fell down like that, and no one even saw him make a move.
"Who the hell are you?!"
Everyone looked at her anxiously. Whether she was a human or a ghost was still under discussion...
"Hand the woman over to me." The person spoke with a clear and penetrating voice, sounding like a woman's. Since it was a woman, everyone's eyes were no longer so scary.
"Why should we give it to you? We found it." Everyone was dissatisfied and didn't believe that several men could not defeat a woman. Even if there was murderous intent in the woman's eyes, they were still grown men.
"This money is enough for you to buy a lot of women." Zi Luo threw the silver bag in his hand on the ground, and everyone's eyes lit up when they saw the gold falling out of it.
"But... a woman as beautiful as her is hard to find at a high price." One of the men wanted to compromise when he saw so much money, but suddenly he thought that this woman was as beautiful as a fairy, and even if he spent so much money, it would be difficult to buy a woman like her.
"What do you want?" Zi Luo's patience had run out and she didn't want to waste any more words with them.
"Why don't you serve us for one night, and we will return this woman to you." Everyone laughed obscenely, and even drooled. Such a heroic woman must be very good in bed! "Heh." Zi Luo sneered and threw a few darts from her sleeves, piercing their foreheads. Everyone fell to the ground, and only a dozen of them were left cowering behind. Their kung fu was not as good as the few big men in front, but unfortunately they had already fallen to the ground, so there was no need for them to rush forward to fight.
"Girl, you... you, please don't hurt us. If you want to take this woman away, just take her away..."
Everyone was trembling with fear. They usually just did some sneaky and sneaky things and didn't want to risk their lives.
Seeing that they had become much more well-behaved, Zi Luo took Kang Keren away.
It was getting dark again. Gu Yunru sat on the camel's back with her eyelids drooping. After a whole day's journey, she felt that she had vomited everything in her stomach. She had never imagined that traveling could be so tiring.
"Miss, drink some more water." Qingxing handed the kettle over with concern. Gu Yunru shook her head and said, "I can't drink it now. I feel like I'm going to die."
Gu Yunru couldn't tell what this feeling was. She felt a tightness in her chest and even a little dizzy.
Rong Zhen, this invulnerable guy, has no mercy on women at all. He has been traveling with so many people for a day and a night, but he has no intention of stopping to rest.
"Miss Gu, why don't you and Qingxing rest here for a while?" Huang Zijun saw that Gu Yunru's face was a little pale, and there were fine beads of cold sweat on her forehead. He knew that the prince was in a hurry to save Miss Kang's life, but these two ladies might not be able to hold on.
"Forget it. This guy will definitely ignore me and leave. Then Qingxing and I will be the only girls caught by wild wolves in the desert without knowing it!" Gu Yunru kept muttering to herself and rolled her eyes fiercely. She would not stay here alone.

"Miss, the prince's team seems to have stopped." Qingxing stared at the team in front of her and shouted in surprise. Thank God, the prince was not a heartless person and understood that their journey was very difficult.
"This guy has a conscience." Gu Yunru yawned and rolled off the camel's back.
"Miss Gu, this is the water and dry food that the prince asked me to give you." Huang Zijun opened the bundle and handed it to the two of them. Qingxing's eyes lit up and she smiled brightly, saying, "Thank the prince and miss for me. We have food now."
"I won't eat anything he gives me." Gu Yunru said these tough words and sat aside, touching the soft sand, but she felt a little empty in her heart.
"Miss, man is iron and rice is steel. You will feel hungry if you don't eat for a day. Why don't you eat something?" Qingxing handed the coarse-grain cake to her nose. When Gu Yunru smelled the scent, her stomach began to growl again.
"Forget it, I ate it for your sake, it has nothing to do with that guy." Gu Yunru even emphasized it, Qingxing nodded and said, "I understand, Miss, then you can eat quickly."
"Yeah." Gu Yunru ate a whole grain cake and looked at Huang Zijun beside her and asked, "How is Miss Kang's whereabouts? Where are we going?"
"The prince is planning to take us around the west, which will make the journey faster. He may be going to find Kedar." Huang Zijun looked at the sheepskin map and found that this road was the closest to Beijing, but also the most dangerous.
