043 The Bandit Den in the Desert

Mo Li took a step forward from Long Yu and said: "Young Master Tang is really secretive. The world only knows that Young Master Tang Feng is a suave and charming person in the world, but they don't know that there is such a family fortune in this remote desert."

Tang Feng said: "Three hundred and sixty years, he is the number one scholar. Mr. Mo has been in the princess's house all year round, pampering himself, so how can he know the sufferings of the people. It's not easy to make a living, which made you both laugh."

"Tang Feng, I was really blind. I looked at you wrong." On the side, the members of the camel team were subdued. They did not suffer any serious injuries, but they were all tied up with ropes. Boss Zhu fell to the ground and fell to the ground.

His face was filled with anger: "We have been friends for so many years, but I didn't expect that you would turn out to be a horse bandit."

Boss Zhu was in a bad situation. He thought that with Tang Feng accompanying him on this trip, no horse bandits would be involved. However, who knew that the bodyguard he hired turned out to be the leader of the horse bandits.

Tang Feng just smiled, said nothing, and waved his hand: "Take inventory of the things. In Boss Zhu's underwear, there is a list of goods for this caravan."

"Okay." A group of subordinates responded, took out the list from Boss Zhu's body, and dispersed in a roar to count the loot. A bold one even whistled: "Boss, this woman is not bad, why not take her back to the house?"

Go and be Mrs. Yazhai."

"Stop talking nonsense, go do your job." Tang Feng laughed and scolded, then turned around and said: "If you make the princess laugh, you are just a desert man who doesn't know etiquette."

"It doesn't matter." Long Yu said, "But if Mr. Tang is just asking for money, we will also bring some money with us. Since passing through the desert is Mr. Tang's territory, we should also pay some tolls."

I opened this mountain and planted this tree. I want to pass by here and leave money to buy the way. This has been the practice for thousands of years, and it is the same in ancient times and modern times. It doesn’t hurt to give him all the gold and silver jewelry. She and Mo Li both

He's right-handed and right-footed, and he's worried that he won't be able to support himself?

"The princess said that, she looks down on Tang so much." Tang Feng said with a smile: "Although Tang is just for money, he is not unscrupulous. Princess, with a body of a daughter, can leave Dongjin. It is really a rare guest to come to this desolate place like me.

.No matter what, it’s me who should entertain the princess.”

"It's such an honor to be entertained by Young Master Tang." Mo Li said, "In that case, I won't bother you."

Long Yu tugged on Mo Li's shirt from behind, but Mo Li just shook her hand to comfort her.

Tang Feng smiled and said: "I am honored that the princess can come here. It just so happens that the princess still owes me something, and I also have time to think about it seriously. What is it that I need the princess' help for."

"That's fine." Long Yu readily agreed, holding Mo Li's hand and not feeling flustered.

The horse bandits tidied up and collected all the financial items, including the precious items hidden by several merchants. Then they left some water and food behind.

Tang Feng walked up to Boss Zhu, untied his rope, looked at Boss Zhu's fire-breathing eyes, and said: "Old Zhu, I am a horse bandit, but we have also been friends for many years, so your goods.

Accept it. But I won’t kill you, so you can turn back now. This food and water will be enough for you to get out of the desert.”

"Tang Feng, why are you doing this?" Boss Zhu was still a little angry and confused: "Based on the relationship between you and me, if you are short of money, just tell me, I will not lend it, I will not give it.

Why did you rob our caravan?"

Tang Feng smiled and stood up: "Because I am a horse bandit, not a beggar."

After saying that, Tang Feng got on his horse, directed everyone to load the goods, and gave the order to set off.

Mo Li hugged Long Yu and rode on the horse. He held the reins with one hand and wrapped his other hand around her waist. Amidst the roaring wind, he whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

At this time, the sky was getting dark and the temperature was beginning to drop. Tang Feng's cavalry headed into the wind without looking at the direction, as if they were no longer familiar with this place.

Long Yu narrowed his eyes and whispered: "Mo Li, are we really following Tang Feng? I always feel that this person is not simple."

"Well, there is nothing we can do now." Mo Li said: "We are too unfamiliar with the desert. Even if we can snatch a horse and escape without water or food, it is no different than seeking death. Follow him first and take a look before talking. Tang

Feng is not like a person who simply steals wealth. Meeting us is just an accident. Maybe things don’t have to go to the worst direction.”

The so-called worst direction means that Tang Feng is brooding about the incident where Long Yu injured him in the past and has revenge on his mind. However, although this matter was ugly at the beginning, Long Yu handled it well in the end and saved his face.

The attitude is also good.

What's more, Long Yu's identity is here, so the matter of escaping from marriage must be suppressed and will not be publicized. Tang Feng wants to run his business safely in the desert, but he has to think carefully. A gang of horse bandits, and then

It is powerful, but it cannot compete with the regular troops of the imperial court. If the tiger really plucks hair from its head and angers Emperor Dongjin, it is not impossible to send troops for Long Yu.

So the camel team carrying the supplies slowly followed behind, with Tang Feng riding at the front of the team. From time to time, he pointed at the scenes in the desert, as if he was really following the guide. At this time, it was Shang.

The team was about to continue their journey and was in a state of chaos when packing up their things, so Long Yu had never had the opportunity to take a good look at the scenery. Now it was good. Although his mood was not so stable, under Tang Feng's explanation, he

I had a taste of the exotic customs.

When the sky gets dark, the heat of the day is quickly taken away by the wind, and the night in the desert roars in with unimaginable coldness.

Tang Feng turned his head on the galloping horse and saw Long Yu shrinking into Mo Li's arms again, and said, "We'll be there soon. Turn around the sand dune in front of us, and that's my village."

Surprisingly, there was a village. Long Yu was speechless and dug into Mo Li's arms again. Looking at Tang Feng, a suave and handsome young man, it was difficult for him to communicate with the vulgar horse bandit wearing a turban in the desert.

together.

It was indeed only a short distance across the sand dunes. What appeared in front of Long Yu was a faintly distant village. It was brightly lit and you could even see patches of green. It turned out to be an oasis in the desert.

Mo Li also looked a little surprised, but Tang Feng was quite proud. With a roar, the gate of the village slowly opened, and someone rushed out to welcome his companions back in triumph again.

Everyone dismounted, and after a few warm words, Tang Feng said: "This is my Fengtang. This is the first time to welcome guests from afar. All facilities in the desert are rudimentary. If there is any negligence, please invite Princess and Mo.

Don’t mind, sir.”

"The oasis in the desert is a fairyland." Long Yu looked around and saw that this place was really a paradise. Even though it felt cold at night, it was warmer than outside because of the walls built on all sides to block the wind.

There are many, and you can see green plants when you look up, so water sources are not a problem.

Tang Feng smiled and called one of his subordinates: "This is Her Royal Highness Long Yu, Princess Funing of Dongjin. You are here to be a guest with us these days. You must take good care of her and not be negligent in the slightest."

"Princess of Dongjin?" The man Tang Feng called over had a flash of surprise in his eyes, as if he had thought of something very happy, and his tone was filled with excitement.

Tang Feng coughed: "Shaq, Princess Long Yu has had a hard time sleeping outdoors in the desert these past few days. Don't say more, and arrange some rest and entertainment first."

"Yes, boss, I know." The man named Shaq responded quickly, seeming to understand the meaning of Tang Feng's words, and said: "Your Highness, please come here and I will make arrangements for you."

Tang Feng clasped his fists at the two of them: "Princess, Mr. Mo, please rest first. I still have things to deal with. After I finish them, I still have something to ask for advice."

It sounds nice to ask for advice. Since Tang Feng brought them here, there is naturally a reason. Whether he wants to ask for something or to force him to ask for something, in short, he is not just a guest.

Knowing that Tang Feng had to deal with the batch of goods snatched tonight, it was naturally inconvenient for Long Yu and Mo Li to be present, so they followed the man named Sha Ke into the village.

This is a complex of buildings. You can't tell how big it is, but a wall as high as a person is built around it, and there are all houses inside.

Shaq led them around for twenty-seventy-eight times, which made Long Yu almost faint. Then he stopped in front of a house and opened the door. Although there was no decoration inside, the furniture was complete. Even the house

Behind, there is a gushing spring.

Shaq said respectfully: "Your Highness, please stay here tonight. I will send someone to bring food and drink later. There is water in the back for bathing. If you need anything else, just call out. The one in front will be fine."

There is someone in the house, you can call at any time."

After all, this place is not big, and the accommodation space is limited. The rooms are connected to each other. Someone can be summoned at any time in the front room, which means that someone is watching them at any time.

After Shaq finished speaking, he retreated. Compared with the horse bandits who followed Tang Feng to rob the caravan, this man was more gentle and his words were quite gentle. He was even a bit polite.

When only Long Yu and Mo Li were left in the house, they closed the door and Mo Li said, "We can't get out of this Feng Hall by ourselves."

"Why?" Long Yu asked curiously: "I don't think this place is very big, because it goes around too much? When I came in just now, I just felt like it was going in circles."

"Tang Feng's Fengtang is an oasis in the center of this desert, but I have never heard of an oasis in this desert before." Mo Li said: "Just now when Tang Feng said that he was about to arrive, he was still there.

When I arrived at this house from the entrance of the village, I paid close attention. People had set up formations in these places. To put it simply, they were used as blinders, so no one has ever found this place over the years."

"It must be a big project to build a stronghold in the desert to hide everyone." Long Yu said: "Then why? You said Tang Feng is not seeking wealth, then what is he seeking?" (To be continued)
