If I hadn't tried to make up for the secular world at that time, I wouldn't be in so much trouble now.
So after taking this into consideration, the caravan captain really didn't know how to speak to Xiao Ning.
What if Xiao Ning showed impatience after saying the words.
"what to do?"
The caravan captain stood blankly, unable to look back or move.
To be honest, he couldn't sleep under the circumstances today.
First of all, the missing escorts were their long-term partners, almost like relatives and friends.
Their whereabouts and life and death were unknown, and he was really uneasy.
If they can safely cross the no-man's land and return home, how should they explain this to their families?
Secondly, since the escort team encountered something unexpected, it means that the danger has been lurking nearby.
Once there is an opportunity, it is possible to launch an attack on the camp.
Now the monster has been reluctant to take action, probably because he is afraid of Xiao Ning's existence.
"Forget it, let's go talk to brother Xiao Ning. At least let him know what happened."
The caravan captain frowned slightly, thinking in his mind.
Immediately afterwards, he walked towards Xiao Ning's tent without hesitation.
Soon, he arrived outside the camp.
"Brother Xiao Ning, are you still awake?"
The caravan captain shouted softly outside the camp.
There was no response from inside.
After waiting for a while, the caravan captain felt disappointed and wanted to leave.
But when he turned around, Xiao Ning's voice suddenly came from the camp.
"Come in and talk about anything."
"Hello!"
The caravan captain cheered, then opened the tent door and walked inside.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Xiao Ning meditating on the bed, his eyes closed and his chest rising and falling regularly.
It seems that Xiao Ning's practice has not stopped.
Seeing this scene, the caravan captain suddenly felt shocked.
He felt that if he rashly interrupted Xiao Ning's practice, he might make Xiao Ning unhappy.
And if Xiao Ning is really unhappy, he might just leave.
Then they will really be in trouble.
After all, the guards of the Jinlin League and themselves cannot withstand the attack of that kind of monster at all.
If this happens, you will have no choice but to turn around and go back.
Thinking of this, the captain of the caravan hurriedly said respectfully: "Brother Xiao Ning, if you are not free, I will go back first. This matter is not urgent. We can talk about it tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ning immediately stopped him and said: "It's okay, just say it."
These people were the ones he planned to keep as guinea pigs, so he had enough patience.
On the other side, the caravan captain felt relieved when he saw Xiao Ning being so easy to talk to.
"Brother Xiao Ning, it's like this. Didn't our escort just go to collect the scattered goods, but after they went out like this, they haven't come back until now."
"Then while we were waiting for them, another caravan's convoy fled all the way and came to us."
"I heard from them that they were attacked by that kind of monster and had no choice but to run away."
"So we were thinking that maybe the monster chased them all the way, and after discovering our escort, it attacked our people."
"Maybe they are already in danger."
The caravan captain quickly explained the general situation.
After saying that, he lowered his hands and waited quietly for Xiao Ning's reply.
Xiao Ning slowly opened his eyes and said, "I know all this, you don't need to explain it to me."
When the caravan captain heard this, he thought that Xiao Ning was indeed a cultivator of immortality. He could know what was going on outside even while sitting in the camp.
But this way things will be simpler. Since Xiao Ning knows the whole thing, he doesn't need to waste time explaining it in detail.
"Brother Xiao Ning, there's nothing else. I just came here to tell you about this, so that you don't know."
"Since you already know, I will leave first and not disturb your practice."
The caravan captain said goodbye immediately.
He did not dare to suggest that Xiao Ning go search for the escorts. If Xiao Ning was offended, the rest of the people in the camp would also suffer.
Besides, they brought this situation on themselves.
If we had not thought about retrieving the goods to make up for the losses, we would not have ended up in this situation.
After saying that, the caravan captain turned around and left.
When Xiao Ning saw this, he called out to him: "Wait, don't leave in a hurry."
Upon hearing this, the caravan captain immediately turned around and asked, "Brother Xiao Ning, please tell me."
Xiao Ning looked at the caravan captain up and down, and then said: "I see that you are also an experienced person. Why haven't you found any problems with the people of the Jinlin Alliance?"
When the caravan captain heard this, his heart suddenly tightened.
From what Xiao Ning said, it seems that things are not simple.
"Brother Xiao Ning, please give me some advice."
The caravan captain said with great respect.
Xiao Ning looked at the caravan captain and said, "Have you ever thought about why the people from the Jinlin Alliance fled south and all the way here?"
Upon hearing this, the caravan captain's expression suddenly froze.
Yes, there is a very serious problem here, that is, if the Jinlin League's escort team wants to escape for their lives, they should not flee south.
Because the trade roads in the no-man's land all run east-west, in order to exchange goods from the east and west.
Under this premise, after encountering danger, the Jinlin League's escort team would either flee westward and return to the Tianshan Prairie, or go all the way east to the ancient city of Zayi.
Normally, fleeing east is the wisest choice.
Because the journey east to the ancient city of Zayi is much shorter than the journey west back to the Tianshan Prairie, and much shorter.
Now the Jinlin League's escort does not go east or west, but instead heads south all the way to their Alashan League's trade route. The problems there are very serious.

"Did they do it on purpose?"
The caravan captain couldn't help but speak.
"I don't know if it's intentional or not, but I think you should investigate this clearly."
Xiao Ning sat on the bed and said calmly.
The caravan captain rolled his eyes when he heard this, then nodded slightly and said: "Brother Xiao Ning is right, we should figure this out first."
Xiao Ning's words indeed make sense. In this situation, we must first find out why the people from the Jinlin Alliance came here.
Only by understanding this can we make a correct judgment.
"Brother Xiao Ning, then I will take the first step."
The caravan captain said goodbye again.
"Okay, let's go."
Xiao Ning nodded towards him and said.
