This man looked thin and small, and had an amazing amount of food. In this meal, he almost ate all the food except compressed biscuits, and I could only eat compressed biscuits to fill my stomach.

I was worried that he hadn't eaten anything for too long, so I kept reminding him not to eat too much at once, but he ignored me and just kept eating with his head down.

After dinner, he soon fell asleep again, and I could only carry him back and move towards the next supply point.

Originally, after replenishing supplies at the previous supply point, I thought the food on my body was enough for two people to spend three days, but after this meal, we only had less than a day of food left.

No, with his appetite, these foods may not be enough for him to eat alone.

It was already night when I arrived at the supply point. The old man woke up on my back. After eating and drinking water, his physical strength seemed to have recovered most of his strength. After waking up this time, he actually had the strength to raise his hand and pat my shoulder, and said to me: "Let me down, I can leave."

I put him down and went to the shelf to collect food.

He did recover most of his energy. Although his face looked a little pale, he could walk by himself. He followed me to the cargo rack and asked me again: "Who are you?"

I feel that when he asked me this question this time, his tone and expression were not very friendly.

I stared at him with my eyes slanted: "Zihunzhuang, Zuo Youdao."

"Are you a member of Jihun Village?" He exclaimed and took a few steps back, as if the person standing in front of him was not a person, but a terrifying evil spirit.

After he and I were far apart, he actually shouted again: "When will Yan Xiaotian hook up with your Soul-Jiezhuang? This traitor!"

I frowned fiercely: "Since Zhao Dekai started hooking up with a cult, he hooked up with our Soul-Sealing Village."

After hearing what I said, the old man's expression became a little complicated.

At this time, I felt an indescribable disgust for the old man in front of me. I put away the food and water and said to him: "You Baiwushan people must have heard of me. I heard that Zhao Dekai is the number one inheritance of your Baiwushan, but unfortunately he is not my opponent. Therefore, it is best to place a respectful point when you talk to me."

He seemed to feel that he had been slim and gave me an angry look, and said, "What if?"

I pulled out the green steel sword from the scabbard: "I can save you and kill you!"

This man was obviously a man who was hard but not soft. When he saw me draw my sword, he retreated a little: "Aren't you Yan Xiaotian's friend? Didn't he ask you... to save me?"

I said, "Yan Xiaotian invited me here for something else. You were just saved by me. I don't expect you to remember my kindness, as long as you don't make any trouble. Now, Zhao Dekai probably already knows that you have been rescued, and he will definitely send people around the world to find you. If you want to survive, cooperate with me, otherwise I will kill you now. Anyway, without the burden of you, I can go out myself."

He stared at me for a while, and suddenly asked me without hesitation: "Why do you want to save me?"

I wouldn't tell him that I saved him because I couldn't see you but didn't save you, but just said to him: "Because I think you might be useful."

He seemed a little proud: "It's useful? Do you think I can lead you and take you out of the loess slope?"

I gave him a disdainful smile: "What are you thinking? Although I am not familiar with the road here, as long as I lack such a burden as you, I can leave safely. Keeping you is to deal with Zhao Dekai. I think that since he wants to kill you, it is probably because you know too much."

How can I say the character of the person in front of me? I can't say that he will repay his kindness with grudges, but at least he will repay his kindness with grudges. Such a person should have a similar stinky taste to Zhao Dekai. I don't believe that when Zhao Dekai controlled Baiwushan, he did not submit to Zhao Dekai. But why did Zhao Dekai kill him? It was either because of a conflict in interests or because he knew too much about Zhao Dekai and had to get rid of it.

And there is another thing that is certain, that is, he should have no use value to Zhao Dekai now, at least it is not very useful.

After saying this, I kept staring in his eyes. After looking at me for a while, he finally lowered his head silently.

It seems that I guessed it right.

When I left the supply point, I gave him two choices, either following me or staying here, waiting for Zhao Dekai's people to come.

He hesitated for a moment, but he finally followed me.

A few hours later, I felt that Zhao Dekai's people should have started searching, and abnormal situations began to appear on the road.

When I passed a gully, I found that thick sand was sprinkled in the gully. If I stepped on it, a clear footprint would be left. I could only take the annoying old man to bypass the gully and look for another way forward.

On the way, I also saw new talismans posted on some dead trees, and I had never seen any talismans on them.

We kept detouring, avoiding these weird decorations on the road, and occasionally proofread the direction with our compass and headed towards the other side of the road.

I calculated the time. If Liang Houzai and the others were fast enough, the return journey would have been halfway through.

Along the way, I haven't talked to the old man following me. I don't want to pay attention to him. He wanted to talk to me several times, but I always gave him a disdainful look. He probably shut up because he was afraid of being bored by himself.

When I was eating, the food I gave him was also quantitative. Now we must save food and can no longer take the risk of replenishing supplies.

Fortunately, he only ate more for the first meal, and the amount of food he had afterwards was about the same as that of ordinary people, and even a little smaller. He often couldn't finish the food I gave him.

I don’t trust him, and he doesn’t trust me. We didn’t dare to sleep for nearly two days, but we just kept taking detours and rushing.

Later, he probably couldn't hold on anymore, and regardless of my ignorance of his attitude towards him, he came over and said to me, "It won't work if this continues. Even if Zhao Dekai can't find us, we will still be trapped and exhausted."

I looked at the loess mound in the distance and shook my head: "If you want to rest, just sleep here, but I won't wait for you. The person who is looking for Zhao Dekai has started to hunt you down now. You haven't slept for two days. As long as you fall asleep, you will definitely not wake up. Even if Zhao Dekai's people come, you will not wake up."

After saying that, I continued to move forward. He sighed behind me, but he still followed my steps.

Nowadays, there are more and more abnormal conditions on the road, but Zhao Dekai's people have not shown up. I don't know what they want to do, but I know that if we take a detour every time we see an abnormality, we will only go further and further away and will never get out of this loess slope.

On the morning of the third day, wind and sand rose on the loess slope again. I stood on a towering hard mound and looked towards the direction where the road was. After not sleeping for several years, my mood became very irritable. The yellow sand slapped my face with the wind, making me feel a little angry for no reason.

We have already deviated from the nearest road. It will take at least two days to leave the loess slope, but I can't stand it anymore.

At the same time, I have a feeling that the reason why Zhao Dekai made so many arrangements on the road seemed to drive us forward in a certain direction. He didn't know who kidnapped his death row prisoner, nor did he know the strength and means of that person, so he chose to wait for his work and guide me to the trap he set up.

0When I walked down from the hard mound, I found that the annoying old man was squatting on the ground and dozing off. I went up and kicked him: "Wake up!"

He was almost driven crazy by the lack of sleep for a long time. After opening his eyes, he stared at me with a very irritable look.

I ignored him, just waved and said, "Go!".

I think he shouldn't want to follow me anymore, but he has no choice. If he leaves me, he will lose all his food and water.

He hesitated for a while as before, but eventually he followed.

After walking for a while, he suddenly stopped and I could hear the footsteps behind me stopped.

I turned to look at him, and he frowned, looking at a mound far away from here and said, "That place is Jiang Bin's territory. Oh, I said why did I only see sand and talismans along the way, but I didn't see anyone? Zhao Dekai wanted to drive us to Jiang Bin's place."

It can be heard that he was afraid of Jiang Bin.

I pointed to the mound in the distance and asked him, "Are you talking about that mound?"

He nodded immediately: "Jiang Bin dug a cave there, and he and his people are inside. You don't know that although Jiang Bin is a casual cultivator, his cultivation is no worse than that of a famous sect. He has a magic trick to listen to the ground and can detect the movements ten miles away. At that time, as long as we enter his territory, he will definitely find it."

I don't believe this. If Jiang Bin has cleaned his ears and eyes like the old Huang family, I believe he can see things ten miles away. But to put it bluntly, it is the use of the Qi field. The "Wind and Fun" in the old man's mouth probably refers to the changes in the Qi field.

In other words, Jiang Bin can use a special technique to detect changes in the Qi field ten miles away, and it is very likely that even extremely subtle changes can be perceived.

I stared at the mound in the distance for a while and asked the old man beside me: "Is there any other way to go around the mound in front?"

The old man said: "You can't get around it. Next to this mound, there is no way to go either by cliff or deep ditch. Unless you walk a hundred kilometers more and take the detour to the west."

Apart from cliffs, there are deep ditches? Can’t you walk on cliffs and deep ditches?

I opened my backpack and looked at it. There was a rope in my bag. With this thing, it should be no problem to climb the cliff.

I asked the old man if there are any relatively shorter cliffs near the mound that are easier to climb. The old man thought about it and said that there is a flat road just north of the mound. Over the cliff, it is twenty miles long.

He was worried that Jiang Bin's people would lie in ambush near the cliff.

If the mound cannot walk, and you are worried that there will be ambush on the cliffs, you will just wait for death here. In the current situation, it doesn’t make much sense to look forward too far.
