Chapter 797

"We must bring enough water. In case of wind and sand, we lose our direction and can't get out for ten days and a half months, water is very important."

General song nodded, "OK, I'll listen to you. Tell me what's missing. I'll tell someone to prepare."

Old man Li didn't talk nonsense. He listed all the things he needed in a few words.

Finally, he told: "there is sandstorm tonight. We are camping here for a night. We will start tomorrow morning. We must keep up."

Ghost Sand Bay is not suitable for riding, so they all lead the war horses, which increases the difficulty of marching.

Night fell.

The night sky of the state of Qi is particularly open and high, with bright stars and boundless expanses.

I don't know why, Chu Zhi doesn't think the war will be so smooth.

Seeing Chu Zhi worried, Han Zhan comforted: "don't think so much. Nothing will happen with old man Li."

Chu Zhi sighed, "but I'm still worried."

Han Zhan winked at Dong'Er. Dong'Er understood and hurriedly comforted: "yes, master, instead of worrying about these, you'd better have a rest with your uncle as soon as possible, gather your energy and start tomorrow."

Chu Zhi was funny: "now you listen to him!"

Dong'Er smiled and said, "that's natural. Who told my uncle to hurt you? No, you can't ask Xia'er. Xia'er listens to my uncle most now!"

Xia'er, who was suddenly named, was slightly stunned. After understanding what Dong'Er said, she lowered her eyes slightly, took a step back, and said in a deep voice, "the little marquis is the master."

Slaves should listen to the master.

These slaves and maidservants should not only be obedient, but also loyal, and they should not cause trouble to their master.

Han Zhan slightly raised his eyebrows and said to Chu Zhi, "you two servant girls, one lively and the other calm, especially Xia'er. It's OK to be with you. Be careful when facing me. People who don't know think I eat people when they see me."

Xia'er's face changed slightly.

"You see, after I said one word, she turned pale with fear."

"Just say a few words!" Chu Zhi stared at Han Zhan and then smiled at Xia'er. "It's getting late. You and Dong'Er will have a rest as soon as possible. I'll ask someone to send you back tomorrow."

Chu Zhi didn't want to take Dong'Er and Xia'er into ghost Sand Bay at all. It was two girls who didn't depend on life and death, and Han Zhan was afraid of wronging Chu Zhi, which called them to follow.

It's just ridiculous.

Who have you seen in war with servants?

Besides, Dong'Er and Xia'er don't know martial arts at all. It's not chaos with them!

At this point, Dong'Er was about to cry: "no! My maid refused! My maid swore to protect the master even if she died. At present, the master is in danger. How can I not protect the master?"

"You protect me?" Chu Zhi said helplessly. "I'm worried that you're holding me back! OK, I'll have you sent back tomorrow."

Chu Zhi's attitude was firm and there was no room for Dong'Er to refute.

The next day.

Before dawn, Dong'Er stood outside Chu Zhi's tent.

She made up her mind not to go back.

No one can take care of the master.

Chu Zhi thought for a moment and said to Dong'Er, "you have to go back and help me take care of Meng Wan. Just ask Xia'er to stay. She knows some Kung Fu and can be used at critical moments."

Dong'Er didn't want to, but he knew Chu Zhi was right and could only nod.

After Chu Zhi forcibly sent Dong'Er away, he said to Xia'er, "won't you blame me?"

Chu Zhi took a trace of guilt at the bottom of his eyes: "this war, I feel very bad."

Xia'er's eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Master..." Xia'er clenched her lips and said hoarsely after half a sound. "You'd better go back! OK? Just listen to the servant's advice once!"

She really doesn't want anything to happen to her master.

Chu Zhi said it was false not to be moved.

Since Xia'er came to her, although she was silent and never talkative, she looked honest and tight. In fact, she was very thoughtful and complementary to Dong'Er.

Chu Zhi can feel Xia'er's loyalty. She is no less interested in herself than Dong'Er.

Then he said, "in fact, it's selfish of me to ask Dong'Er to go back today. She agrees with light one and doesn't know martial arts. If she goes to the battlefield and specifies danger, in case something happens, isn't there another sad person in the world? That's why I asked someone to send her back. As for you..." Chu Zhi said firmly, "Don't worry, I will protect you! Since I am the servant girl of Chu Zhi, as the master, I have a comprehensive self blame for protecting you."

Xia'er trembled fiercely, and her fundus emotion surged.

Slaves always protect the master in this world. Where does the master protect slaves?

Thinking of Chu Zhi's little drops to her, Xia er's red eyes overflowed with big tears. She turned her head and dried the tears on her face.

Choked: "master, you will be fine!"

Chu Zhi smiled and nodded, "we'll all be fine!"

……

According to old man Li, if it goes well, you can get out of ghost Sand Bay in five days. It's not long. The bad is that the weather in ghost Sand Bay is changeable. If you accidentally get separated or encounter wind and sand, you can't get out for ten days and a half months.

At the beginning, old man Li warned and reminded him again and again, and everyone kept it in mind.

As a result, something happened on the third night.

Originally, the Army wanted to continue marching in the moonlight to save time. After all, ghost Sand Bay is changeable. Staying here for more than a quarter of an hour is more dangerous.

Just then, old man Li suddenly found that the night sky in the East turned yellow. He immediately shouted, "get down! Get down! Hide! The sand is coming! The sand is coming! Get down -"

Just then, the wind and sand rushed here at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As soon as Han Zhan's face changed, he had no time to think more. Subconsciously, he protected Chu Zhi in his arms and lay down in the desert.

Chu Zhi only looked at it, but Han Zhan covered her with a cloak and stuffed two kettles in her arms. Then the wind and sand fell down and covered people. It was fierce and urgent. Chu Zhi was almost out of breath.

In my ears were the screams of soldiers and the neighing of war horses.

Chu Zhi clenched her teeth and clenched her fists, revealing her worry and anger.

In the face of natural disasters, mortals are always very weak and helpless, and they don't even have the ability and opportunity to resist.

I don't know how long it took. The sandstorm finally passed.

Chu Zhi wanted to get up, but she couldn't move. She was buried under the sand. If she couldn't get out again, she would be suffocated alive.

Han Zhan!

Chu Zhi doesn't care about herself. She just wants to know how Han Zhan is.

Han Zhan was just above himself.

Just when Chu Zhi was anxious, there was a burst of noise outside, and many war horses were exhausted.

Not long after, Chu Zhi felt that the sand on his body had been planed.

"Master!" seeing that Chu Zhi under the cloak was safe and sound, Xia'er hugged Chu Zhi, "fortunately you're all right... Fortunately..."

Her trembling body revealed her incomparable panic.

Chu Zhi patted her: "I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Where's Han Zhan?"
