They also need to continue to survive on this land.
So, unless you're a fool, you probably wouldn't poison the lake. After all, if you really want to poison such a large lake, how much medicine would it take to detoxify it? And even if you detoxify it, they'd be repulsed by having to drink from it again. So, poisoning in the desert is something that most people wouldn't do.
After hearing Murong Xiao's words, Qing Fan nodded, scratched his head, turned around and stopped talking.
Looking at Qing Fan like this, Murong smiled and raised his lips slightly.
Qian Yeming looked at Murong Xiao, then at Qing Fan, and a hint of understanding flashed across his eyes.
After washing off the dust of the past two days, sleepiness gradually set in. Qing Fan ordered everyone to split into five groups, each taking turns to be responsible for the security of the camp, in case of a nighttime attack.
The rest went into their own tents to rest.
As members of this team, Qian Yeming and Murong Xiao, although they are very skilled, must also shoulder their own responsibilities. Fortunately, they were assigned to the last group and were responsible for keeping watch for the last hour.
After a full night's rest, their already not-too-fatigued bodies regained their full vitality. Although Jifeng and Qingfeng suggested they take charge of the sentry duty, such a long rest was more than enough for Qian Yeming and Murong Xiao. They might as well take this opportunity to enjoy the sunrise over the desert.
The sky was still black because it was located in the western region and the sun came later, so even though it was already late, the entire desert was still shrouded in darkness.
After a peaceful night, everyone's worries were mostly put to rest. After all, there had been no attacks all night, so how could they possibly launch an attack so late in the morning?
With this in mind, since the sun rises later in the west anyway, everyone fell asleep peacefully.
The sun was about to rise from the eastern horizon. Although it could not be felt in the western regions yet, the sky was no longer so dark.
After the torches burned out, Hong Da and the others didn't light new ones. At this moment, the sky was already starting to turn gray and would soon turn blue. Soon, the first rays of sunlight would surely reach the Western Regions.
The vast desert was calm, with only the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the sand dunes.
But in this extreme tranquility, some unusual movements occurred in the desert.
Qian Yeming and Murong Xiao looked at each other and saw a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.
If the desert didn't prohibit individual business travelers, they wouldn't have joined the group. Joining a group was indeed troublesome; it looked like the pursuit would never end.
"Master, Madam, it's almost dawn, there shouldn't be any danger. Why don't you go in and rest for a while? We brothers will watch over them here." Hong Da came up to Qian Yeming and Murong Xiao and said to the two masters in a flattering manner.
"If you really want to join us, you'll need to improve your vigilance and observation skills. They're already at the gates, and you're letting us in to rest. Someone who doesn't know would think you're their spy!"
Murong Xiao's half-smiley words startled Hong Da, and then his face changed drastically.
"They're coming?" Why didn't he feel anything at all? "It's almost dawn now, why are they attacking now?"
