Chapter 458 Unexpected Encounters Along the Way

So, she shook her head without hesitation. "I was so frightened just now, I didn't really see anything.""You're lying to me" The old man in white glared and roared, "You were just staring intently at...If it were only wolves, they would not have harmed these masters. Coincidentally, these masters got drunk last night. 。"Xiao Long let out a sigh, a hint of mockery playing at the corner of his mouth, “Such crude methods... it seems they place more importance on this expedition to the treasure trove than we anticipated.” 。“So you mean someone drugged these experts beforehand and then lured the wolves to attack, making it look like an accident Who were the casualties this time”Xiao Long replied, “It was Rong Ye’s people who died, including one elder. The Ling family was injured, they were hurt while rushing to help.” 。"

“Hehehe,” Qin Luoyan couldn't help but chuckle softly, “The Ling family going to help And got injured” The Ling family’s people were also masters. Could it be that they couldn't even handle a few wild wolves How fake the claim of being injured is evident here >>>" 。Although everyone knows the truth, at least on the surface, the Ling family were injured while saving someone. To the Rong family, this is an act of kindness, not enmity. Even if the Rong family wanted to get angry, it would be difficult to openly tear their faces apart. 。As the two were speaking, Rong Ye sent someone to inform them that it was time to set off. It seemed that an "unexpected" wolf attack had not affected this trip at all. 。Qin Luo Yan and Xiao Long packed their things together, ate some food hastily, and the team set off again. 。Although it was morning, the sun in this desert was still scorching hot, making the skin feel dry and painful. 。Qin Luo's veil covered her mouth and nose, she sat on the camel swaying back and forth. 。After about an hour of walking, a terrified scream came from the front. As the scream rang out, the team began to retreat in some disorder. 。Xiao Long immediately grabbed Qin Luo Yan's reins to steady both her and Ni Wan's camel. He held onto the reins until everyone around them was stable, then he let go, but his expression remained extremely cautious. 。"What happened out front" Qin Luoyan grabbed a young man who retreated to her side and asked. 。The young man, seeing Qin Luoyan—the most unique woman in the squad and one that every family head had explicitly instructed to protect and respect—immediately answered respectfully: “Someone has fallen into a quicksand pit ahead…” 。“

Sand pit” Qin Luoyan was a little surprised, and turned to look at Xiaolong, “Didn’t Rong Ye’s people have already scouted the terrain in advance It was said that there wouldn’t be any sand pits from where we started this morning to the treasure location of Gengjin source. How could there suddenly be……”

Xiaolong shook his head, but the young man beside him said dejectedly, “Although it is said so, the terrain in the desert changes very quickly, and sand pits are very hidden. It’s possible that the person who went to investigate the terrain before didn't find these sand pits.” 。"Qin Luoyan glanced meaningfully at the young man, and only then did she realize that this young man was from the Rong family. No wonder he spoke for the Rong family." 。"The younger brother's words make some sense." 。Qin Luoyan did not refute the young man's words, she just nudged her camel forward, asking the little dragon beside her as she walked, "Little Dragon, shall we make a bet and see which family those who fell into the quicksand pit belong to" 。“Uh…” Xiao Long hesitated for a moment, suspiciously replying, “I guess it wouldn’t be the Ling family, right” 。Qin Luoyan smiled without answering. In the midst of their conversation, she arrived at the front and saw Ling Shu leading several attendants throwing ropes into the quicksand pit. The end of each rope was attached to an iron spike, which fell into the quicksand pit with the rope, continuously sinking downwards. Unfortunately, the quicksand pit was even more terrifying than the swamp. Once a person fell in, they would gradually suffocate and die. Who could possibly grab the iron spike and climb back up "Xiao Long, you guessed right. It really is Ling Shu's people." 。Qin Luo'yan withdrew her expression. No matter what, she couldn't smile when facing the passing of life. 。Even before entering the Gēnjīn Yúan Tóu Bǎo Cháng (Source Treasure Vault of Gengjin), the hidden families began to fight. 。Qin Luoyan couldn't help but look up at the sky. The sun was still a little above the eastern horizon, quite some time away from noon. She didn't know how many lives would be lost in this kind of struggle during this time, disappearing in an "accident." 。After the time it takes to brew a pot of tea, Ling Shu still couldn't rescue anyone from the quicksand pit. Under Rong Ye's "comfort" and urging, the team set off again. 。Qin Luo'yan brought Xiaolong back to the middle of the team. She casually glanced back, and at the back of the team, the old man responsible for roasting sheep and food was still drowsy, with a pair of dull eyes, as if he could never wake up. 。It seemed as if he could feel someone watching him. The old man also raised his head to glance in Qin Luoyan's direction, but he didn't show any expression and lowered his head again. 。Qin Luoyan didn't pay attention to the fleeting exchange of glances. She just couldn't help but have Xiaolong go to the rear and tell the elder a few things, roughly meaning that he should take good care of himself, after all, it was a desert area, and some unknown dangers always came out of nowhere. 。As Qin Luoyan expected, the team had barely walked for a while when they encountered several quicksand pits again. Thanks to their previous experience, very few people fell into the pits this time, only two from the Li family “accidentally” dropped in. 。Li Yunfan didn't say anything, only his face was a little embarrassed along the way. After instructing Li Hai a few words, he rode his camel to Qin Luoyan's side. He took a deep look at Qin Luoyan, his lips trembled for a long time before squeezing out a sentence, "Be careful." 。“ Four words, yet they warmed Qin Luoyan's heart. She harbored no hatred nor love for Li Yunfan, but towards such concern, she felt a deep sense of gratitude. ” 。She lightly nodded, without speaking or making any response. 。Li Yunfan sighed, shook his head slightly, then returned to the ranks of his Li family. 。Qin Luoyan retracted her gaze, not knowing if it was her illusion, she always felt that when Li Yun fanned over and spoke to her just now, there was a cool gaze staring at her from behind. 。 "Ah!" Suddenly, a wave of screams erupted from the front. As the sounds rose, the camels ahead slowly collapsed at a visible speed. The people on Camel Mountain also tumbled onto the sand and then writhed in pain, clutching their bodies and howling. 。 “Be careful, girl!” Xiao Long was also panicked and didn’t care about propriety. He jumped directly from his camel onto Qin Luoyan and Ni Wan’s mount, holding the two women in each hand. With one foot on the camel’s back, he leaped backward ten zhang in a few strides. 。When he first landed, the camel Qin Luoyan and Ni Wan were riding also fell to the sand. 。If you think "Fu Zi Mo Qin Luo Yan" is good, please copy and paste the following URL to share with your QQ, WeChat or Weibo friends, thank you for your support!
