Chu Liuxiang didn't answer, and Yu Ze quickly looked away.

The two cuddled together, and after walking a certain distance to make sure that no one at the city gate could see it, Yu Ze immediately pushed Chu Liuxiang away.

"Where did you and Hassan agree to meet?"

"there."

Chu Liuxiang was thoughtful, and blankets and food were all available, but even so, he spent several hours in the open air in the desert, which was not as comfortable as in the city. Hassan has always been able to endure hardships, but the moment he saw Chu Liuxiang's figure, he could not bear it. His eyes lit up and he ran out from his hiding place.

"Brother Chu!"

Hassan immediately got on Chu Liuxiang's camel swiftly.

"Okay," said "Chu Liuxiang" sitting under Yu Ze, who kept asking Hassan and couldn't help interrupting.

"The supplies are sufficient, and we have not been made things difficult by the defenders of the city. I also released a false message last night, saying that you and Xinghe are still in the city, and should be able to stop them for a while. Hassan, give me a direction, before they respond Come here, let's get the silk book quickly."

"This……"

Hassan suddenly became embarrassed, "I don't know..."

"You don't know?"

Yu Ze narrowed his eyes, pulled the rein with his hand, and the camel stopped in place.

For some reason, Hassan couldn't help but tremble when seeing Yu Ze. Seeing him like this, she shrank back and quickly explained: "I'm not playing tricks on you! In order to prevent the will from being found, the king's He did it very low-key, and hardly told anyone except the national teacher, but the national teacher has been in power for 100 years and is respected by people. Everyone tacitly does not involve him in court battles and throne battles, so the second princess dare not ask"

Yu Ze crossed his arms, looked at her fixedly, and waited for her next words.

"But the eldest prince broke this unspoken rule. After the death of the king, the eldest prince threatened and lured him several times, but the national teacher kept silent. The national teacher is respected by others. He is not easy to be violent, so he sent someone to secretly Monitor the national teacher. When I escaped that day, I asked the national teacher about the silk script with the mentality of trying. Unexpectedly, the national teacher actually gave me a reply. He was under surveillance. Two words - quicksand."

"If I remember correctly...there is an ancient country in the Western Regions that once disappeared called Quicksand."

Chu Liuxiang spoke out.

"Yes, Brother Chu is right." Hassan glanced at him unexpectedly, "In the west of the great desert, there used to be an ancient country called Quicksand, but it's a pity that the water source there was cut off 200 years ago, and the ancient country fell. There are a few crumbling buildings left..."

"It's not easy for us to get in there."

Hassan took out a map from his bosom, and Yu Ze immediately leaned forward. The map was crude, but generally understandable. Hassan pointed to the place where a Populus euphratica was drawn on it and said, "There is a plant in the south of the ancient country. Populus euphratica forest, and on the south side of the Populus euphratica forest, there is a large piece of quicksand called the sea of ​​death. There are too many quicksands there, and the position is not fixed. The sad thing is that we don't know where his boundary is, and we have roughly delineated a range according to the location of the quicksand we encountered in that area in recent years."

She made a circle on the map with her hand.

"So big?"

Yu Ze's eyes widened involuntarily, and Chu Liuxiang's face was also solemn.

"Yes," Hassan sighed, "The distribution of the quicksand is from sparse to dense. The circle is such a large area, but the quicksand in the outer circle is actually not dense. Even so, you must be careful." For the top."

"It's obviously too time-consuming to go around, so...we can only go through the sea of ​​death."

Chu Liuxiang smiled wryly.

Yu Ze was obviously a little anxious, he pursed his lips, his brows were wrinkled into a pimple - this incident really exceeded his expectations.

But now it is clear that there is no other choice.

——Within four days, the silk script must be found.

"Do you have to get involved in this?"

Yu Ze touched Chu Liuxiang and asked in a low voice.

"I can't let this little girl take such a big risk alone."

Okay, that's going to be.

Yu Ze scratched his head irritably, even the camel under him seemed to feel his emotions, and walked a few steps anxiously.

In the end, he lifted his thin lips, and said inexplicably, "Xiang Shuai really cares about the fragrance and cherishes the jade."

There was some inexplicable anger in these words, Chu Liuxiang naturally felt it, but he didn't know where the anger came from, he only thought that he was dissatisfied with being deceived, and he didn't want to get involved in this matter.

Of course, there is no problem. Chu Liuxiang never asks others to use his own standards, and it is up to Yu Ze's own will whether to go or not.

And although Yu Ze didn't say it clearly, it can be seen from his words and deeds that this person should be a killer - there is no need for a killer to do things other than the mission, there is nothing to blame.

But besides understanding, Chu Liuxiang is still a little curious. Chu Liuxiang has seen many killers, and the most familiar one should be Zhongyuan Dianhong.

But whether it is Zhongyuan Dianhong or other people, they all look like they are bitter, bitter and reticent, or they are ruthless and see death as home.

Yu Ze doesn't seem to be related to any of them, he has a lively temper, even a little crazy, occasionally showing a little childishness that is rarely seen on his body, and that mixed-race appearance...

All these mysteries made Yu Zexian even more mysterious.

Chu Liuxiang was curious, very curious, but he hid his thoughts very well, and the smile on his face showed no flaws.

"The 14-year-old girl was looking for silk books in the desert alone, and there were soldiers chasing after her. Naturally, she should be pitied. What's more, Xinghe was brought by me. Since she was accidentally involved in this incident, can she help her?" It's a handful."

After finishing speaking, Chu Liuxiang looked at Yu Ze firmly, and he felt that he still had more to say.

Sure enough, after being silent for a while, Yu Ze approached again, and said in a very low voice: "You helped me during the sandstorm—although I wouldn't have had an accident without you, this time for your sake, I'll go, count me as your favor, and from then on, we owe nothing to each other."

"For my sake, you still charge eleven gems?"

"For your sake, I only accepted eleven gems."

Yu Ze deliberately added the accent on "only". Seeing Chu Liuxiang staring at him blankly, he seemed shocked by his thick skin, so he raised his lips and smiled, his eyes instantly bent into two crescent moons.

"Let's go."

He said softly, even his voice was as light as a butterfly flying among the flowers in early spring.

Look, childish, how can anyone get better mood inexplicably because of a facial expression.

Chu Liuxiang shook her head, feeling a little helpless, but it was more funny.

"You wait for me."

Chu Liuxiang shouted, and chased after her.

The three of them drove for three days in a row. They were either sleeping or on the road every day, and sometimes they didn't stop day and night. Hassan could sleep in Chu Liuxiang's arms, but Yu Ze and Chu Liuxiang didn't sleep all night. .

Yu Ze had lost weight visibly with the naked eye, and his eyes were slightly black and blue, but his face did not show the slightest fatigue, but his eyes became brighter, shining like a pair of emeralds under the strong desert sun.

"It doesn't look like Hassan is going to look for the silk book, but rather like you are going to look for it."

Chu Liuxiang joked.

"I don't want that thing." Yu Ze glanced at him, slowed down, and walked side by side with Chu Liuxiang, "I just want to get paid and get out of this damn place quickly."
