The prince gave me a bamboo horse

From the Gobi Desert to the desert, Populus euphratica and red willow stretch all the way, guarding the land under our feet.

"The desert is about three days away, and there are bandits in it, so watch your feet and don't step on the quicksand!" Yang Youcai said loudly.

Before entering the desert, wrap the wheels with felt to avoid getting stuck in the yellow sand.

Wen Xingyuan saw the desert for the first time, and he also came down to walk with everyone.

"Old Yang, are there wolves in this desert?" Wen Xingyuan had already cast a shadow over the wolves of the previous days.

"Yes, but there are few in groups, only three or five," Yang Youcai said.

Wen Xingyuan nodded.

The sun in the desert was extremely strong, coupled with the strong wind, after a while everyone was covered with yellow sand, Wen Xingzhi drove Wen Xingyuan back to the carriage, and he was not allowed to show his face.

"The wind is too strong! Bah!" Wen Xingzhi was fed a mouthful of wind and sand, so he had to cover his face tightly, leaving only his eyes outside.

At noon, the sun was even bigger, and looking at the heat wave ahead made the mouth dry even more.

"It's all good! If you go into the desert after a while, it will be even hotter!" Yang Youcai comforted.

Finding a place slightly leeward, everyone stopped to rest, "Eat quickly, or it will be full of sand in a while!" Wen Xingzhi stuffed a pancake for Wen Xingyuan.

"En!" Standing here, you can see a few willows growing not far away, Wen Xingyuan came to Ming Huaiyan's side, "I don't know how the prince is doing?"

Ming Xiuqi and the others took a step ahead, so I don't know if they have encountered anything.

Ming Huaiyan took a small sip of water, "I saw the news about Shiqiliu before entering the desert, so they should have crossed the desert and arrived in the Western Regions."

"That's good!"

Ming Huaiyan handed the water bag to Wen Xingyuan, "Don't worry, Seventeen has high martial arts skills, and the emperor's uncle also spent several years in the frontier when he was young."

Wen Xingyuan nodded, nodded and continued to eat pancakes.

I slept for a while, avoided the hottest hours in the desert, and set off on the road again.

The temperature difference between the day and night in the desert was huge, Yang Youcai asked the people below to build a fire, and everyone huddled close together to keep warm.

Wen Xingzhi personally hugged Wen Xingyuan tightly and finally patted him on the head, "Big baby!"

The big baby Wen Xingyuan: ...!

While Wen Xingzhi was doing other things, Ming Huaiyan leaned over, "Yuan'er!"

"Brother Ayan!" Wen Xingyuan had no expression on his face, but his heart was filled with joy.

Ming Huaiyan approached him, "I feel worse than before!"

Wen Xingyuan "?"

"I used to be able to share the same bed, but now I can only watch from a distance!" What Ming Huaiyan didn't finish was that, especially after eating meat, he suddenly stopped talking, and for so long, even oil soup No need to drink.

"It deserves it!" Wen Xingyuan gloated.

Ming Huaiyan glared at him, "Don't be happy, you still owe me a debt! When the time comes!"

"What does Yuan'er owe you?" Wen Xingzhi hugged a blanket and listened halfway.

"Food money, before Yuan'er said he would invite me to dinner, but he never invited me, I told him not to forget!" Ming Huaiyan said.

Wen Xingzhi didn't believe it, "Really?"

Fortunately, Wen Xingyuan was tightly wrapped, so no one could see him blushing, "Yes."

Wen Xingzhi put the blanket on Wen Xingyuan's body, "Okay! Please call me during the meal, and I will offer a toast to Your Highness!"

Ming Huaiyan smiled strangely, "Okay!"

Wen Xingyuan was there, Ming Huaiyan could only watch helplessly, and left after a while, and went to see if there were any wild animals around, and called Wen Xingyuan to change his words.

"Brother, don't cover me so much, I'll be anxious for a while!" Wen Xingyuan felt that he was not covered so thickly even when he was born.

Wen Xingzhi didn't listen, "If you are in a hurry, you are in a hurry, brother will help you!"

Wen Xingyuan: "!"

There were no wild animals, Ming Huaiyan caught two scorpions, and after Sang Zhu's guidance, removed the poisonous sacs from the tails of the scorpions, and set them on fire to roast them.

It was already very cold, Wen Xingzhi didn't let Wen Xingyuan move, he fed Wen Xingyuan himself, and then started to eat by himself, "Your Highness, are you giving Yuan'er roasted scorpions?"

"Delicious!" Yang Youcai roasted one, and it crunched in his mouth.

Wen Xingyuan opened his mouth, bit the scorpion, and tried to chew, "It's very fragrant!"

"Really?" Wen Xingzhi was a little skeptical, but seeing that other people also ate it, it should be good.

The next day, Wen Xingzhi led the horse, and in one hand held a bamboo basket that Zhao Yang Youcai wanted. He caught a scorpion and put it in when he saw a scorpion along the way.

"Tsk tsk! Is your nephew going to fill you with medicinal materials?" Sang Zhu said to Ning Nanbei.

Ning Nanbei shook his head, "He's filling his stomach" and rode over on the horse, "It's okay, it's not good to eat too much! Especially Yuan'er, just give him a taste!"

Wen Xingzhi threw the caught scorpion backhand, "Okay"

Seeing that scorpion escape, Ning Nanbei felt sorry, how good it would be to give me medicine!

In the evening, I was lucky enough to meet the oasis. Yang Youcai said that this is also a supply point for walking in the desert.

However, everyone became vigilant when resting at night. After all, there is water here, and it is very likely that other animals or people will come here to fetch water.

Wen Xingyuan slept next to Wen Xingzhi as usual, Ming Huaiyan slowly moved over, Wen Xingzhi looked at him, "Your Highness, what are you?"

"It's a bit cold, come over and have fun!" Ming Huaiyan said, Wen Xingyuan covered his face with a face towel and laughed non-stop.

Ming Huaiyan gritted his teeth and laughed!There will be times when you cry in the future.

In the middle of the night, Ming Huaiyan opened his eyes and wanted to steal Wen Xingyuan over, but when he saw it, Wen Xingzhi hugged Wen Xingyuan tightly, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch him. Wen Xingyuan is also a heartless person, doesn't he think about himself?Just sit up and look up at the sky.

Suddenly felt something strange around him, but Ming Huaiyan had no experience of marching outside, so he carefully woke Wen Xingzhi up, "What are you doing?"

"Hush!" Ming Huaiyan looked at the dozing people around him, "Do you find it strange?"

Wen Xingzhi immediately regained his energy, sat up with his arms around Wen Xingyuan, and listened with bated breath, "There are people a few miles away, go, wake them up!"

Ming Huaiyan quickly took the sword and went over to wake up Ningnanbei, Sangzhu and Yang Youcai.

After a brief discussion, who else could appear besides the bandits in the desert!

"The nobles are so lucky!" Yang Youcai gave a thumbs up. In the past, wolves and bandits would only meet once or twice in ten times when escorting supplies. As a result, they all rushed this time.

"En! Alright, let's get ready!" Wen Xingzhi said.

Everyone returned to their original positions, as if nothing had happened, but the sword under them had been unsheathed.

"Boss! It's a big fat sheep!"

"I didn't expect that we would encounter such a good thing once we came out!"

A bearded man with hawk-like eyes, "Don't let your guard down!"

"What are you afraid of! Grab it and have a good time!" the man said again.

The bearded man gave him a hard look, the man finally became honest, the bearded man waved his hand, "Let the brothers spread out, get ready!"

"Yes!"

Wen Xingyi held Wen Xingyuan in one hand, and held the sword hilt in the other hand. The fingers holding Wen Xingyuan moved lightly. Ming Huaiyan could see clearly that there were more than a hundred people on the other side. Those who robbed in the desert were not good stubble. Prepare for a fierce battle.

At this time, Wen Xingyuan slowly opened his eyes, saw Wen Xingzhi's eyes were open, and just about to say something, he saw Wen Xingzhi wink, shut his mouth immediately, and slowed down his breathing.

Wen Xingzhi reacted so quickly to Wen Xingyuan, with a few smiles on his face, and mouthed: Don't be afraid!

Wen Xingyuan closed his eyes, and Wen Xing's hand tightened slightly.

At this moment, a rain of arrows flew over, and the people who were always ready stood up and shot down the arrows!

"Boss! These people are vigilant enough!"

The bearded man waved his hand, "Spray the poisonous smoke!"
