Luo Chen's face softened slightly, and after leaving a sentence, he pulled off the mask and covered his face tightly, leaving only a pair of eyes outside.
When Zheng Xiaoliu saw this, he smiled bitterly and pulled up his mask as well.
Suddenly, the two of them continued walking forward in silence.
"Um?"
Just as he climbed over one sand dune and was about to climb over another sand dune, Luo Chen suddenly stopped and frowned at the sand dune in front of him.
"Master Luo, what's wrong?"
Zheng Xiaoliu also stopped and looked at Luo Chen doubtfully.
"There are people over there at this dune, and something seems to have happened."
Luo Chen said, pointing at the sand dunes in front of him.
"Is there anyone?"
Zheng Xiaoliu listened attentively with doubt on his face, but apart from the "whirring" of the wind, he heard no other sounds, so he frowned and looked at Luo Chen:
"Master Luo, did you hear wrongly? There is no other sound here except the wind!"
When Luo Chen heard this, he shook his head silently and rode his camel to climb up the sand dunes: "You'll know if you go and have a look."
When Zheng Xiaoliu saw this, he frowned and hurriedly followed.
"Dangdang..."
"ah......"
As we walked further up the sand dunes, the sounds of metal collisions and screams gradually came.
"There really are people!"
Hearing the sound, Zheng Xiaoliu glanced at Luo Chen who was walking in front in surprise. He didn't expect that this young man, whom he thought he knew fairly well, could hear such a distant sound and seemed to know what was going on.
Luo Chen, on the other hand, ignored Zheng Xiaoliu's surprise. At this time, he was quickly climbing up the sand dune with a frown on his face.
"This is?"
Climbing to the top of the sand dune and looking at the scene below, Zheng Xiaoliu's face was full of surprise, while Luo Chen also frowned tightly.
Under the sand dunes, a large caravan of more than 200 people was forming a circle with camels outside, resisting the attack of hundreds of bandits.
In the Targan Desert, there are two things that are the most threatening. One is sandstorms. Boundless sandstorms can instantly sweep people up into the air and then bury them deeply in the sand, making them disappear from the world in an instant.
The second is the sand bandits. The sand bandits in the Targan Desert are extremely ferocious and leave no grass behind wherever they go. They rely on their familiarity with the desert to come and go like the wind. Anyone who is targeted by them has no chance of leaving the desert alive.
.
It can even be said that sand bandits are more threatening than sandstorms. If you are lucky, you can escape a sandstorm. If you encounter sand bandits, you will basically die.
Luo Chen and Zheng Xiaoliu never expected that they would encounter sand bandits in this vast desert.
"It's a bandit!"
After being surprised, Zheng Xiaoliu hurriedly leaned on the camel's back and whispered to Luo Chen: "Master Luo! Let's go around these bandits before they notice us!"
When Luo Chen heard this, he did not move. He looked at the caravan surrounded below and frowned: "Those people below are Da Gan people."
"Master Luo!"
Seeing this, Zheng Xiaoliu knew Luo Chen's thoughts and said hurriedly: "I know you want to save those people, but there are hundreds of bandits below who kill without batting an eye. Although we have some strength, we will not encounter any trouble in this desert.
With such a large group of bandits, we can't even protect ourselves, let alone save those people. It's better for us to do less than to do more. Get out of here quickly!"
"It's too late!"
Luo Chen shook his head and pointed to the bottom of the sand dune.
