Isn't it just for money? Gu Yunru would not take these people to heart.
The leading man took off his mask. He had a strong physique, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looked a bit like a rogue.
"Originally they just wanted to rob some money, but after seeing the beauty of the girl, the brothers changed their minds."
Gu Yunru was shocked. As expected, a beautiful woman cannot leave the house casually.
"What do you want to do? I tell you, we are royal relatives. If you dare to mess with us, watch out for your heads!"
Gu Yunru glared at everyone fiercely, as if he was going to overwhelm them with his momentum, but the leading man didn't care.
"Really? What a royal relative! We like women of such status."
Seeing that the Chongsha bandits were about to come and rob people, the two guards fell from the sky and started fighting with everyone.
"Run!" the guard shouted at them. Gu Yunru made a prompt decision and quickly led everyone on camels and headed east.
"Those women are running away, chase them!"
The rest of the sand bandits chased after him relentlessly, but only four or five of them followed.
"Miss, what should we do? They are following us..."
Qingxing hugged her waist tightly. No matter how fast the camel could run, it could not outrun the horse. Even in the desert, the horse was still quite fast.
"What else can we do? We must rush forward!" Gu Yunru was so stubborn that she got off the camel and started to move.
After running for an unknown amount of time, Gu Yunru discovered that someone seemed to be missing.
"Xiuyun, where is your master?"
Xiuyun was panting and her face was flushed red. She had not yet caught her breath. When she heard Gu Yunru's question, she looked up at the desert around her. The desert looked very magnificent, but there was no sign of Shuying.
"I don't know either. I just heard her footsteps, and she disappeared in the blink of an eye!" Xiuyun looked around anxiously. Gu Yunru quickly covered her mouth and said, "Don't shout. Be careful not to call them over. Those sand bandits don't look like they will hurt her. We must find the prince first and let him bring people to rescue her."
Shuying ran out of strength, and since she was weak to begin with, she fell in the sand after only a few steps. Several men caught up with her, laughed loudly towards the sky, and carried her back.
Zi Luo came to the desert and saw several more bodies. Among them, there were two men in black clothes with badges on their waists. They seemed to be people from the palace. Could they be the princess's men? Looking at this, she looked around in confusion, but did not see the princess. Where did these two people come from? "Hey, another woman came. She seems to be quite pretty." The other sand bandits were waiting, wondering if the women just now would come back to find their teammates. But they didn't expect that after so long, a woman dressed in neutral clothes came, and she seemed to have a bit of temper.
Zi Luo slowly turned around. These people were already dead. Looking at the five people surrounding her, she curled her lips coldly and took out a scimitar from her waist. The scimitar was extremely sharp and would cause bleeding as long as it touched the skin.
Her eyes revealed a cold murderous look. Several men were unwilling to accept it and walked forward. Before they could touch her, they were suddenly beheaded by her knife. Her method was extremely cruel. Zi Luo did not find anything here, so she continued to move forward.
The gleaming scimitar was pinned to her waist, and anyone who approached her would have their hair stand on end.
"I brought some firewood, let's keep warm first." Gu Yunru picked up some dead branches nearby. Xiuyun pounded her head with dissatisfaction, doing nothing but sitting there. Qingxing was panting with exhaustion, rubbed Xiuyun's arm and said, "I said why don't you help us."
"We agreed to bring Yi Ying with us to find the prince, but you abandoned her halfway."
Xiuyun was still upset about this matter. Qingxing said to her dissatisfiedly: "We should go to the prince to rescue her. Otherwise, how can we women fight against those killers with bare hands?"
"Okay, Qingxing." Gu Yunru gave Qingxing a look. This girl always insisted on being reasonable.
"Xiuyun, don't be sad. I promise you that I will find Shuying."
While Gu Yunru was trying to comfort her, she turned around and disappeared in which direction.
"Miss, look at Xiuyun's expression." Qingxing couldn't help but make a face behind her.
"Okay, Qingxing, let her be alone and quiet for a while."
All three of them were starving, but there was nothing they could do. In order to hurry on their journey, they had to find Rong Zhen's team as soon as possible.
Gu Yunru touched her hungry belly and lay on the desert and said to Qingxing: "Look, there are so many stars here. I wonder if the prince is also looking at the stars."
"I don't know. Anyway, Qing Xing knows that she is so hungry that she has no feeling. Miss, I have no strength left. I am afraid I can't walk such a long distance tomorrow."

Qing Xing touched her belly and tightened the belt around her waist again to barely stop her from making any sound.
“Ah!”
Suddenly, a scream was heard. It was Xiuyun's. Gu Yunru perked up and jumped up to rush towards the direction of the sound.
"Ah...Miss..." Xiuyun was bitten by a snake, and the snake was wrapped around her ankle and refused to leave. She was so scared that her face became stiff and her whole body seemed to be frozen.
Gu Yunru observed the snake, which was trying to wrap around Xiuyun alive and then swallow her. It should be a small python. Its skin was earth-colored and should not be poisonous.
"Don't be afraid, just breathe and relax, it won't bite you again." Gu Yunru had some research on the toxicity of poisonous snakes. Seeing that Xiuyun's ankle did not change color, she knew that the snake should not be poisonous.
"Don't move, I'll do it." Gu Yunru took a deep breath and quietly approached Xiuyun's ankle. When the snake was not paying attention, he grabbed its head and pulled it off her leg.
Xiuyun completely collapsed and burst into tears. And the snake became their delicious meal tonight.
"Miss, it smells so good, but Qingxing, I heard that almost all snakes in this desert are poisonous, why isn't this one poisonous?"
Qingxing swallowed her saliva and looked at the snake that was roasted to a crispy outside and tender inside, her eyes shining.
"Xiuyun is lucky. Yes, almost all snakes in the desert are poisonous. They can survive in such an environment. If they don't have some skills, they can't survive."
"Oh." Qingxing looked at Xiuyun who looked scared and walked towards her, "Here, it's roasted. Let me give it to you." Xiuyun was scared when she saw the snake, and raised her head hesitantly and said, "Thank you, Xiuyun won't eat it."
