Chapter 206

ped from it. His entire face was swollen and puffy, becoming large and round. All of his features were squeezed together in the center. Two long teeth pressed tightly against his lower lip. A few str...Our lives were all in their hands, so we bowed our heads. It was better than dying, and in the end, we all did it.

Before leaving Qia, I asked Heiyagan reporter how she hadn't come.

She smiled and said, "Actually, I didn't know you had been captured. This time saving you was pure coincidence. I came back to see my mother. Gan Xuan is still in Yinchuan. The day before yesterday, I hid my true identity because I didn't know you well. You weren't looking for the Hutuo tribe How did you end up here"

I told Huiya about getting lost in the sandstorm a few days ago, smiling wryly. I asked her how to get to Huotebu, explaining that I couldn't contact the camel caravan and had lost them.

Huiya said: "There's someone in the tribe who can take you there, but he has a strong prejudice against you. I had to put in a lot of effort just to get him to agree to this."

As she spoke, she handed me a sheepskin parchment map.

The map is about two handspans in size, and several points of interest are marked on it with charcoal.

Huiya pointed at the map and said, "You are here now. The Hutu people are probably active in this area. I can only help you so much. Good luck on your journey."

"""

Thank you, Huiya. That afternoon, we left the Ke'a tribe with a little water and a map.

“Hey hey! What are you following us for!” After leaving the Kyab tribe, Azar trailed far behind me and Xiaoxuan. He kept his backpack on his back and stayed about forty to fifty meters away from us at all times.

He shouted across the distance: "Who's following you guys! The Alashan Desert isn't your backyard, I'm just walking normally."

”

"Don't be naive..." Xiaoxuan muttered to me, "Yunfeng, we have to be careful tonight. This guy has a bad heart and dirty hands. He might try to steal something from us again."

">

We don't have sleeping bags now, so we chose to camp under a juniper tree at night. Aza was sitting far away eating dry food and waving to us.

I let Xiao Xuan go to sleep first.

I built a fire, and I sat by it all night, watching that boy. We just stared at each other for two whole nights, neither of us sleeping.

Azha couldn't take it anymore, she was the first to speak up: "Hey, Yunfeng, let's just make peace, there's no need for this, it's too painful."

I sneered back, "Make amends What a joke. If we made amends, that would mean we'd be asleep while you steal our stuff!"

He suddenly got up, walked over step by step, and said with a smile: "Look at what you're saying, Yunfeng. Don't you know why I followed you Or are you pretending to be clueless"

That night, I saw it all. It was when I was looking for water.

The smile on his face suddenly vanished, and he squinted, saying: "A young geographer, are you Oh my, how peculiar. Which researcher brings a Luoyang shovel to catch mice"

I don't understand what you're saying.

”

"Not admitting it yet"

Azha dug into his ear with one hand, then put it down and said slant-eyed, "I'm not a fool. The first time I saw those things, I knew what you were doing. You even pretend to be young geographers! Whatever treasures you want to dig up in Alashan, count me in."

">

I got up and looked at him coldly, saying: "I said if you don't come with me."

”

"Don't play without me"

"Well, that's hard to say."

"

"Yún Fēng, you don't know, my mouth has been acting up lately. It won't close properly, and I keep wanting to tell people things..."

"Look, some things said might not be good for anyone."
