Chapter 128 Exploring the East and Encountering Resistance
"It seems that it is really a strange fire that can hurt Queen Medusa. Qinglin didn't expect you to be quite powerful."
Xiao Xue held Qing Lin's hand and praised her.
Qinglin showed a happy smile.
"If Master Xiao Yan wants to go, I can take you there."
Qinglin pointed to the location marked by the flame on the map. This place was exactly the place he was looking for next.
"Then there's Lao Qinglin."
Xiao Yan smiled and nodded.
"But Qinglin, that only happened half a year ago. Can you still sense any abnormal movement in that area now?"
Xiao Ding asked.
Qinglin looked at Xiao Ding, then looked back at Xiao Yan, watching Xiao Yan smiling at him.
"Just this morning, another energy wave broke out in that place, just when Master Xiao Yan and the Second Captain were having a discussion in the morning."
"I see."
"But this area happens to be the range of activities of the Sand Mercenary Group, and these people will definitely stop us."
Xiao Li looked at the place pointed by Qinglin on the map and said.
"Brother, second brother, what exactly is this Sand Mercenary Group? Why do you feel so angry every time I talk about this?"
Xiao Xue could sense from Xiao Li's expression that Xiao Li had a hatred for the Sand Mercenary Group.
Xiao Ding patted Xiao Li's shoulder and said with a smile: "This Sand Mercenary Group is always against our Motie Mercenary Group. Every time our Motie Mercenary Group goes out on a mission, anyone who meets them will do anything.
It’s so embarrassing that your second brother almost didn’t come back several times.”
It turns out that this is the case. It seems that this time it is necessary to deal with the people of the Sand Mercenary Group.
Xiao Li sighed: "It's not because their leader is a great fighting master who acts recklessly and robs other mercenary groups' property."
The more Xiao Li spoke, the more hatred his eyes showed.
"Okay, second brother, now is the time to find the strange fire for Xiao Yanzi. Don't be so downcast. One day we will take care of them."
Xiao Ding pressed Xiao Li's shoulder, gave him an affirmative look, and nodded.
"Okay, I'll go get some help right away."
Xiao Li recovered his energy instantly, and Xiao Yan watched Xiao Li go out to gather men.
"Second brother, thank you."
Xiao Li waved his hand.
"Xue Lan, gather all members of the mercenary group immediately. Today we have to carry out a mission in the eastern part of Stone Desert City. Horses, dry food, and water must be prepared."
Xiao Li summoned Xue Lan to assign tasks.
"Yes, Second Captain."
Xue Lan accepted the task and quickly gathered the team members and prepared the necessary supplies.
In just one moment of burning incense, Xue Lan knocked on the door.
"Second regimental commander, you are ready. Do you want to set off now?"
The door opened with a "squeak", and Xiao Xue sincerely admired her eldest and second brothers. This Motie mercenary group is really good, and people are very united!
"Set off."
Everyone got on their horses. In order to show the way, Qing Lin and Xiao Yan rode on the same horse.
When approaching the eastern part of Stone Desert City, Xiao Ding divided the mission area again.
"We are divided into four groups, me and your second brother, Xiao Yanzi and Qing Lin, and little sister and Xue Lan, we found the one with the name of Fireworks."
"yes."
The four teams dispersed, each looking for an area.
The climate of the desert changes rapidly. Just now, the sky was clear and cloudless, but now there is a sandstorm. Xiao Xue, Xue Lan and others had to hide behind a rock wall and wait for the sandstorm to pass.
The sandstorm blew all the way, and the sand kept moving with the wind. Xiao Xue's head was full of sand, like a marmot emerging from the sand.
When the sandstorm passed, Xiao Xue shook her body to shake off the sand and dust. Fortunately, the clothes she wore today were suitable for walking in the desert. This was also a lesson learned from entering the desert.
"Let's keep looking!"
Xue Lan, as the squad leader, gave the order.
The other team members nodded and began to look for the scent of strange fire.
After turning around the rock wall and walking less than three miles, I saw a group of people approaching from a distance.
Xue Lan stopped where he was and looked at the group of people: "They are from the Sand Mercenary Group."
Xiao Xue looked over and saw that there were twice as many people as there were here, and all of them had fierce looks in their eyes, as if they were looking for something.
Is it possible that they got the news? It shouldn't be so fast? Unless there is a spy in the Motie mercenary group.
"These rats are really annoying. You will meet them wherever you go."
Xue Lan complained at the side.
Xiao Xue couldn't help but feel happy. She didn't expect Xue Lan's scolding to be so funny. She originally thought she was a very strict girl in the Motie mercenary group.
"It looks like they are targeting us."
Xiao Xue hid on a sand dune. Looking over, she felt that there was nothing here, but they were clearly looking for something. What else could they be if they weren't looking for the people of the Motie Mercenary Group?
"What should we do? There are only ten of us, and we are no match for them."
Xue Lan lay beside Xiao Xue and whispered.
"I haven't noticed these twenty or so people yet. They will only delay my search for clues to the strange fire. Xue Lan, you take them over there and continue looking for the strange fire. I will deal with them."
Xiao Xue's words shocked Xue Lan. Is this Miss Xiao Xue okay?
"Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Xiao Xue saw that Xue Lan was worried about her, so she comforted Xue Lan and said.
"Is it really okay?"
Xue Lan still didn't believe it. Although Xue Lan had seen Xiao Xue kill four members of the Sand Mercenary Group with one move last time, after all, Xiao Yan was able to do it because of her sudden appearance after Xiao Yan defeated the opponent's fighting master.
.
"Xue Lan, don't worry. I'm free to use my discretion. When I find clues to the strange fire and have a signal, I will rush over. If you don't leave, they will find you and you won't be able to leave."
Xiao Xue gave Xue Lan a firm look.
Xue Lan let out a long breath: "Okay, Xiao Xue, be careful."
As soon as Xue Lan moved, she was noticed by the other party's people. The group of people shouted and uttered obscene words and rushed towards this direction.
Xiao Xue walked out from behind the rock wall unhurriedly, picking her ears while waiting for the people from the Sand Mercenary Group to approach.
"Captain, wouldn't it be a good idea if we just abandon the captain's sister like this?"
"Don't worry, I believe she will be fine. Our most important task now is to find clues to the strange fire. Do you understand?"
"Understood, Captain."
Xue Lan left with the others and continued to search for clues about the strange fire.
The members of the Sand Mercenary Group, led by a wretched-looking man, quickly came to Xiao Xue's side.
The man kept circling around and looking up and down at Xiao Xue's figure. Xiao Xue, who was only fifteen years old, was quite curvy and beautiful. This man's mouth was watering.
"Hey, I haven't seen this Motie mercenary group for a few days and there is a girl who is more beautiful than Xue Lan. Girl, Xue Lan has abandoned you. Why don't you follow your brother from now on? I promise that I will not abandon you.
Escaped."
Xiao Xue felt extremely disgusted when she saw a big black pimple on that man's face.
