Rong Zhen lowered his eyelids in embarrassment. He didn't expect Gu Yunru to be so close to this little Su Li. He gave her a sharp and warning look, and Gu Yunru pursed her lips silently.
"I have just met your leader. If you want to follow me, it's up to you."
Rong Zhen had an indifferent expression and tacitly allowed them to follow him. Gu Yunru talked to Xiao Suli along the way, but Xiao Suli seemed to value every word and rarely spoke.
After returning to the camp, Huang Zijun actively ran over to inquire about Kang Keren's whereabouts. Looking at Rong Zhen's secretive expression, he knew that there was no progress.
Gu Yunru watched Rong Zhen walk into the tent. Knowing Huang Zijun's anxiety, she walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, General Huang. He will be safe."
"Thank you, young lady." Huang Zijun lowered his head with a dim look in his eyes. Qing Xing was about to take out some dry food to share with everyone when she saw his strange expression. She knew that he was thinking about Miss Kang day and night and was worried about her safety. She felt bad.
"Miss is right. Miss Kang is blessed by heaven. Nothing will happen to her. General, eat first. I saw you didn't eat much yesterday."
Qingxing raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at Huang Zijun's dejected look, she couldn't bear it and brought him something to eat.
"Thank you, I really have no appetite now." After saying this, Huang Zijun turned and walked into the tent.
"Qingxing, forget it. He is not in a good mood right now. Just let him calm down alone." Gu Yunru knew who the worry in Qingxing's eyes was for, so she pulled her into another tent and shared the dry food with Xiao Suli.
As they were eating their dry food, they suddenly felt a gust of wind coming over them, almost blowing away their tents. A soldier outside shouted, "A sandstorm is coming. Everyone, hide quickly."
Little Su Li sat there calmly, not moving a muscle, while Qing Xing frowned and huddled behind Gu Yunru, saying, "Miss, they said a sandstorm is coming. I heard that this sandstorm...can sweep people away..."
Hearing Qingxing's voice become hoarse, Gu Yunru knew how much they feared the sandstorm. The noise outside was like the howling of a devil. When he walked outside, he saw that several people were blown several meters away, and the tents where they had set up camp had already been blown into the sky.
Little Su Li stabbed the sword on her waist directly into the desert, sank into it, and held the handle so that she would not be blown away by the wind.
The sky seemed to be swept by a huge dark cloud, splashed with a layer of ink, and it was pitch black. Nothing could be seen, and the air pressure could be felt to be very low, as if being sandwiched between two forces. Gu Yunru's heart began to feel uneasy, and he quickly squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.
Rong Zhen saw something blowing in from a distance and quickly protected Gu Yunru. Gu Yunru felt someone pressing on his back, and that person groaned in his ear. He felt very painful. It seemed that something had pressed hard on him. It was unknown how long it took for the sandstorm to pass.
Little Su Li was the calmest and most composed person in this sandstorm. Seeing Rong Zhen lying on the side with blood all over his mouth, she carried him into another tent. At some point, Huang Zijun was blown in front of her. Gu Yunru looked at the faint light that was beginning to appear around her and slowly raised her eyes.
"General Huang, General Huang, wake up." Gu Yunru looked at him unconscious and patted his face, thinking that it was Huang Zijun who pressed on her and saved her from the disaster.
At this time, the dark clouds gradually retreated, and the sandstorm went nowhere. It was as if a ray of light appeared on the horizon, illuminating the entire desert.
Seeing the mess all around and some people half-covered by the sand, everyone crawled out of the sand in a panic to see if there were any injured people nearby.
Gu Yunru turned over Huang Zijun's body and placed her slender jade fingers on his wrist. She found that his pulse was jumping very fast, and he must have been hit hard just now.
She took off the hairpin on his head and pierced several of his blood vessels. This could temporarily calm his heartbeat and save his life.
But the most important thing is that he suffered internal injuries and needed medicine to treat them. There was nothing but endless desert around here, not to mention any herbs.
At this time, someone fished out the body of the medical officer from the pile of sand. It turned out that it was too late to give treatment and he had already died.
Everyone picked up the things that were blown away by the wind and repaired them. The weather had returned to normal at this time and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking around, Qingxing was nowhere to be found. When I walked to the side, I realized that she had been blown to a corner of the desert and was unconscious. I pinched her philtrum and Qingxing finally opened her eyes.
"Miss, are you okay?" Qingxing looked at Gu Yunru worriedly. She herself was already unconscious, but he still cared about her safety. Gu Yunru gently scratched her nose and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine now. Are you still dizzy now?"
"I'm not dizzy anymore. I seemed to see General Huang running past me just now, but when I opened my eyes I couldn't see anything. Miss Qingxing was really scared just now."

Qing Xing was trembling with fear, she had never seen such a horrific scene before. The sandstorm seemed like a man-eating devil with its bloody mouth wide open. In her eyes, everyone was like a humble ant.
Seeing how frightened she was, he opened his arms and held her in his arms, patted her on the back, and said soothingly: "Don't worry, it's over. We should be able to get out of the desert after walking another two miles."
In the evening, Gu Yunru was ready to find Rong Zhen to discuss ways to get out of the desert. If he continued to take this detour, he would probably not be able to return to Da Qi even after seven days and seven nights. He looked everywhere for Rong Zhen's shadow, but found that he was gone. Instead, he found Xiao Su Li.
"Little Su Li, have you seen Rong Zhen?" Gu Yunru bent down to look at her at eye level. Little Su Li pursed her thin lips and shook her head, looking ignorant. The sandstorm just now did not hurt her at all.
"Forget it, he won't be blown away by the wind, right?" Gu Yunru straightened his waist muscles and suddenly had a bad premonition. However, Rong Zhen's martial arts were so high, how could he be blown away by the wind?
But seeing that Huang Zijun was still unconscious, Qingfeng didn't know where to scout and ambush. Who should he look for? "Miss, General Huang is awake." Qingxing called in the direction of Gu Yunru. Gu Yunru instantly forgot about Rong Zhen and thought that it was more important to see her savior. She came to Huang Zijun, felt his pulse, opened his eyelids, and then held his chin to observe carefully. She found that he was much better now.
