Chapter 773 The One-Eye is coming!
Even though Xiangdong and Xiangxi were beside the third princess and helped her, and they were very powerful, they were not powerful enough to make the scorpions afraid of them, because when General Yuan and even Jiang Lianzhu first arrived, the scorpions were not afraid of them and wanted to besiege them.
And that shot from General Yuan was so powerful and imposing that it only made Scorpion temporarily avoid it before it crawled under his feet to take revenge on him.
The third princess and her group managed to hold on to the end with just a little insect repellent powder.
Theoretically, it doesn't make sense.
Otherwise, someone was driving the scorpion group and deliberately not touching the three princesses and the others.
Otherwise, there must be someone in the Third Princess' group who can make the Scorpions afraid and afraid to come forward.
Jiang Lianzhu understood these words in her heart, but did not say them out loud.
"Everyone, take inventory and rescue everyone. Those who have been poisoned by scorpions, come to me and get some medicine to apply externally. As long as it doesn't affect your walking, quickly return to base camp, which is where the tornado just happened."
Everyone take action.
After seeing how Jiang Lianzhu used gunpowder weapons, I admired her even more.
So strong!
She couldn't be treated as a woman at all, and she had to have a stronger aura than a man. Unknowingly, in the eyes of the soldiers, Jiang Lianzhu had become a 2.8-meter-tall figure.
Xiangdong and Xiangxi came over to show their concern for Jiang Lianzhu's health. "My Lady Princess, are you okay? You were caught in the tornado and fell down, weren't you injured?"
They saw with their own eyes that Jiang Lianzhu was swept into the sky. It was so high that an ordinary person would probably be killed or disabled if they fell from it.
"It's okay." Jiang Lianzhu had a lot of life-saving things on her.
Even if you don't have martial arts or magic powers, you still have a parachute.
Xiangdong and Xiangxi confirmed that Jiang Lianzhu was fine before they began to report the situation.
The master sent them to protect her. If she got hurt or something happened, they would be too ashamed to face their master.
"We were protecting the Third Princess, and we were constantly blown by the strong wind, rolling along with the quicksand, and finally landed in the Scorpion Pit. We also discovered that this sandstorm has a circular trajectory. It's estimated that it first originated in the Scorpion Pit, blew around, and finally blew back into the Scorpion Pit..."
Jiang Lianzhu also noticed this phenomenon. She found that the patterns and directions of the quicksand were abnormal.
This tornado is a natural phenomenon. If you first walk through the Scorpion Pit, you will encounter it as well.
"Okay, I'm glad no one was killed. Let's pack up and go back."
"yes."
During this period of time, Jiang Lianzhu kept projecting her consciousness outward. When she didn't see any other movement and the scorpion didn't appear, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Before, I didn’t want to go this way because I was afraid that someone would maliciously control the scorpions, and I didn’t know how toxic the scorpions were.
Now she came here to see for herself that no one was controlling the scorpion group. The scorpion group was wild and not as poisonous as she had imagined. The danger was half resolved.
At this moment,
Suddenly, a scene of rolling yellow sand appeared not far away.
Coming in full force.
Someone exclaimed, "Is the sandstorm coming again?!"
How could this withstand a second time?
"Ah! No way! Everyone, run! Find a safe place. There's a pit here, a depression. We can hide first..."
Jiang Lianzhu instinctively felt that this couldn't be the second sandstorm, so she looked up!
It would be fine if you didn't look at it, but when you did, you'd be shocked.
She shouted, "It's not a sandstorm, it's horse bandits! Everyone be alert! Arm yourself!"
Today it's like all the monsters and demons are coming together.
Those horse thieves rode tall and powerful horses with special foot pads installed on their treads. When they ran, they were much faster than camels, but they would not sink into the sand.
There were many people, making strange noises and rushing over.
The men on horseback were armed with spears, swords, whips and other weapons, and looked very fierce.
There were a large number of people, several hundred in total, riding horses together, and the rolling yellow sand they brought up looked like another sandstorm at first glance.
Jiang Lianzhu wanted to curse, as she hadn't yet recovered from the aftereffects of the sandstorm.
Then we encountered horse thieves again.
All the people on their side were now scattered, and there were many wounded soldiers. Facing the ferocious horse bandits, everyone couldn't help but sweat and tense up.
At the same time, they felt inexplicably relieved. The horse thieves were human beings. They could communicate and fight. They were not afraid of them at all. The princess had gunpowder weapons and could burn these bastards to death.
What we fear most are natural disasters like sandstorms. No matter how powerful the princess is, she cannot fight against nature.
General Yuan instructed the soldiers, "Hurry up and take good care of our supplies. Don't let the bandits take any of them. Especially the Third Princess's dowry. It's extremely precious and we can't let the bandits take it easily."
The implication is that they are not afraid of fighting, but they are afraid that horse thieves will steal things and run away.
If a horse thief rides on a fine horse, steals things and runs away, what can they use to chase him?
The soldiers obeyed the order, "Yes."
They kept all the supplies tightly behind them. As for Princess Fu'an who was still in front, facing the aggressive horse bandits, they felt there was no need to protect her.
Because the princess is so powerful.
They don't have to worry at all.
At this time, it is enough for them to hide behind the princess and protect the supplies.
So, Jiang Lianzhu stood alone in front of the team, raised her hand, squinted her eyes and looked at the surging group of horse thieves.
A small figure stood in the endless desert. If it were an ordinary person, she would definitely look pitiful and helpless, but she was different. She stood there, as if she could freeze everything around her in the portrait, and she was the brightest star in the center of the canvas, the calmest, most elegant, and most majestic and powerful existence.
The bandits were getting closer and closer, and their leader could be vaguely seen as a one-eyed, burly man wearing a hat with a large brim.
He is also the strongest on horseback.
He was riding in the front, far ahead of the other horse thieves!
He also spotted Jiang Lianzhu from a distance and laughed out loud, "Hahahaha!! Little beauty, are you waiting here for the masters to come? Hahahaha... Let the masters take care of you!"
He rode his horse forward, intending to capture Jiang Lianzhu and mount her.
The soldiers on Jiang Lianzhu's side looked at the horse thief leader as if he were a fool.
However, some people recognized him.
It’s the Spring City guide with bandages on his hands and legs!
The Spring City guide exclaimed in horror, "He's One-Eye!! One-Eye is coming!! Ah!!"
After hearing this, General Yuan knew who this person was. Before setting off, he had a preliminary understanding of the several major horse thief gangs in this desert.
This group of people called One-Eye are known for their brutality, burning, killing and looting. Anyone who encounters them will be skinned alive if not killed.
This desert is huge, and there are not just one group of horse thieves, but two or three. If a caravan wants to travel through this desert, it may be unlucky to encounter two or three waves of bandits and have to pay two or three waves of money to pass through.
