Seeing Qin Yaoguang open the door and walk out, the two grassland men leaning against the door immediately looked at her.

To be honest, they also did not agree with the chief's decision to marry her to Batel.

Such a beautiful woman is hard to come by in a century. It is a blessing from God that she finally came to their tribe.

You thought everyone had the chance to win the heart of a beauty, but you are going to give it up?

But this was the decision made by the chief, and they had no choice but to obey even if they were unhappy.

She held a large bowl of warm water in each of her slender hands and looked over with a smile: "Two brothers, it's cold at night, drink some hot water to warm your body."

They couldn't understand what she said, but they could understand what she meant.

Looking at her bright smile, I never thought of refusing.

Both took the bowl from her hand, and one said, "Such a good woman, she was locked up by the chief and still brought us hot water."

"They say that women in the Central Plains are gentle. I finally understand this these few days."

They didn't think about anything else at all. After drinking the water, they just felt warmth rising up. They were so sleepy that they fell against the wall.

The pill used by Qin Yaoguang is enough to knock out a cow, and its effectiveness is considerable.

She only used one third of it, splitting it between the two of them, enough for them to have a good sleep.

Yan Yuanan came out of the house and helped Qin Yaoguang to hold them up. He also found some miscellaneous items to cushion the two of them. It looked like the two of them had fallen asleep after keeping watch all night, so there was no suspicion.

After doing all this, the two returned to the room and checked their luggage again.

It’s early October, and it’s not late autumn by any means, but the nights here are already quite cold.

Qin Yaoguang put on everything she could wear, wrapped the remaining half of the pill in a silk handkerchief and hid it in her belt, then covered herself with a sheepskin jacket.

Yan Yuanan suggested: "Mother, destroy the dress you are wearing."

Used to confuse audiences.

Good idea, Qin Yaoguang's eyes lit up.

When she encountered the sandstorm, she was on her way to meet Suojibu, wearing the gorgeous dress worn by Princess Dajing.

When she experienced sandstorms and was chased by sand bandits, she threw away the outermost robe and shawl that were in the way. Later, when she was shivering with cold in the desert at night, she remembered that if she had these two pieces, she could at least keep out some of the cold.

When she was rescued, her dress was already torn and dirty, but the luxury of the fabric could still be seen.

You can tell at a glance that these items do not belong to the Oasis Tribe.

Right now, there is the threat of Bater nearby and suspicious Tibetan soldiers in the distance, so she might as well use her old clothes to create confusion.

When daybreak comes and someone discovers that she has escaped, they will start to become suspicious.

Thought she was kidnapped.

However, it is not easy to achieve this goal.

Yan Yuanan thought for a moment and said, "Mother, I'll go out for a while and see if there's anything I can use."

The guard at the door had been knocked down. The people here were used to a comfortable life and were not on guard at all, so there was no problem for him to go out.

"Go back quickly."

Saihan could be here at any time, and Qin Yaoguang was only worried that they wouldn't be ready before she came.

Yan Yuanan understood this in his heart and came back quickly with a small bucket of sheep's blood in his hand.

"Mother, use this."

He put all the clothes that Qin Yaoguang had taken out on the ground, stomped on them a few times, cut them with a dagger, and splashed sheep's blood on them.

Then separate the bloody clothes and throw them in various places in the room.

It looked as if Qin Yaoguang had met with an accident.

So much so that when Saihan stepped in, he was startled and asked in a low voice, "What happened?"

Qin Yaoguang smiled, pointed at her and then waved in the direction of the chief's residence.

Saihan understood: "You don't want my father to suspect me?"

Qin Yaoguang nodded.

After Saihan understood, she was silent for a moment, then gestured for them to follow her.

It was late at night and the only sound outside was the wind.

She led the two of them along a path that led around the tribe's fence.

There are two camels and two horses tied here, with water bags filled with kumis and butter tea, several water bags filled with clean water, as well as dry food such as hubai and beef jerky hanging on them.

Along the way, Saihan remained silent.

It's not the silence that's afraid of making a sound and waking people up, but the silence that's filled with worries.

Qin Yaoguang saw through it and gestured to ask her if she wanted to go with them.

Saihan was biting his lower lip and hesitating, when suddenly, the quiet night sky was illuminated by fire.

A shout rang in the ears of the three people.

Saihan turned her head in confusion and saw the flames rising into the sky, which was the direction of her father's residence.

She had no idea what was going on, but Qin Yaoguang felt a chill in her heart.

This is an enemy attack.

"It must be the Tibetans that Burigude mentioned. They are here!"

Normally, since Bater proposed to use cattle and sheep as betrothal gifts, he would not rob them openly.

Yan Yuanan spoke quickly and hastily: "Let's go!"

The people in the tribe were awakened and went out to check the situation without even putting on their clothes, but they were hacked to death by the soldiers on horseback.

There was blood splattering and wailing everywhere, it was a horrific sight.

Saihan had never seen such a tragic scene before. He stood there in a daze for a few seconds before reacting and screaming, "Father, Mother—"

Qin Yaoguang grabbed her and said, "Let's go!"

A young girl rushed back. If she didn't die, the fate that awaited her would be even more painful than death.

"No, no, no!" Saihan struggled hard.

If she had been considering before whether to take the opportunity to go with them and see the outside world, now she would never abandon her parents and tribesmen and escape alone.

Qin Yaoguang gave Yan Yuanan a look, meaning to knock her out and take her away.

Yan Yuanan did not do as she asked, and directly said in Saihan's language: "Saihan, if you go back, you will do nothing but die. Leave immediately, and you can still keep your life to avenge your parents and brothers. If they are not dead, you can see them again."

At this moment, nothing can arouse a person's desire to survive more than revenge.

Every word he said poured into Saihan's mind, leaving her frozen in place, her eyes reflecting the raging fire that was sweeping over her.

She forgot why Yan Yuanan suddenly learned to speak his language, and the only words left in her mind were "revenge".

"go!"

Qin Yaoguang shouted again: "We must leave quickly before they find us!"

Saihan nodded with tears in his eyes, rode on one of the camels and led the other one in his hand.

Since they were escaping, these were the only supplies the three of them had, so they couldn't afford to give up.

Neither Qin Yaoguang nor Yan Yuanan knew how to ride a camel, so one of them turned over and rode on a horse.

"I will return."

Saihan told himself this in his heart.

Before leaving, Qin Yaoguang glanced at the wind direction, took out most of the pill from her waist, and threw it into the fire closest to her.

She didn't know if the pills would still be effective after burning, but she didn't have time to think about it at this moment.

Burigude rescued her and the tribe allowed her to recuperate.

She wanted to do what she could to help them.
