The man coughed slightly, ate a little, and sighed: "Go to sleep, we have to get up early and start our journey tomorrow."
Long Fuyue was really tired and exhausted. She nodded, leaned on the sand dune, and fell asleep.
The sun rose again. The temperature in the desert rose rapidly, which also woke Long Fuyue up. She opened her eyes drowsily, looked at the bright sun, and yawned: "The sun is so high
Okay, Senior Brother, why didn’t you wake me up..."
Before she finished her sentence, she suddenly stopped. That person was not there! She quickly looked around, the fields were vast, the sea of sand was still boundless, but there was no one there.
Her heart sank suddenly, and she jumped up. Something rolled out of her arms. When she lowered her head, she saw that it was the little fox. It was curled up and still sleeping soundly.[
Long Fuyue was shocked. Why did the always alert little fox sleep like a dead pig? Also, where was the senior brother? Did he encounter some danger? Or... did he abandon her and go alone?!
She mentioned the little fox and shook it violently. The little fox trembled, and then slowly opened its eyes. Its green eyes looked around, and the fox's eyes were misty: "Why are you sleeping so long?"
Where is the senior brother?"
Long Fuyue suppressed the bad premonition in her heart and shook her head: "I don't know, maybe it's convenient..."
The little fox jumped up: "Convenient?" It jumped up to a high slope, stood upright and looked around: "No, this is a big desert, it is clear at a glance, and there is not even a single person in sight!"
Long Fuyue also climbed up the high slope, and sure enough, not a single person could be seen. Only in the distance where they started to rest last night, there were a few vultures rising and falling, obviously biting the dead ones.
Horse thief.
Long Fuyue shouted "Big brother" several times, but no one answered. Only the wind blew through the sand dunes, making a whining sound.
She was still uneasy, so she gritted her teeth and ran to the place where the vultures were rising and falling. Unsurprisingly, there were only a few corpses of horse thieves that had been chewed into skeletons, and there was no trace of her senior brother...
