wizard

money or life

This is a simple multiple-choice question, especially when the knife rests on the neck.

The robber who kills like hemp and treats life like a child's play, his legs will tremble even when he is swordsman, his former prestige is gone, only the fear of facing death remains.

He Ning is not in a hurry, he believes that one of the three robbers will let go.The result was better than he had expected. The bandit leader with two mustaches felt sorry for his life, and he was quite self-aware.The robber who had a hole in his chest cut out by He Ning was unlucky. The result of his stubborn resistance to the death was that his neck was chopped off by the knight, ending his pain.

The woman next to the bandit leader was very silent, like a marionette, no matter what the bandit leader said, she would obey.

The wounded knight treated the wound briefly, and the dead robber was left to the scavengers. The team set off again, but the destination was not the deserted city, but the rock mountain where the robbers hid their treasure.

There are quite a few rocky mountains in the desert. 400 years ago, there were all lush forests and pastures here, but now there are only bare dark brown rocks and a few dead trees and dry grass nearby.The tall rocky hills become nesting places for scavengers and birds of prey, and also gather large numbers of gray finches.The low, fissured rocky mountains are home to poisonous snakes, scorpions and lizards.There are also some gerbils and sand cats who also settle near rocky mountains. Gerbils dig caves to avoid wind and sand, and sand cats mostly find food for convenience.

Gerbils, snakes, scorpions, lizards are all on the sand cat's recipe.When encountering an adult sand cat, the rock python will go to the west.

He Ning has a deep understanding of this.

The two robbers led the way, their hands and feet were free, but their weapons were taken away.

Stepping on the yellow sand with one deep foot and one shallow foot, the scorching sun dried the blood on their faces and arms, and the dry and cracked blood clots tore the skin.Thirst tortured them, and every time they swallowed saliva, it hurt like a knife had been cut in their throat.

huh - huh!

The whip was swung down in the air, but it didn't hit the robber, but it made both of them shudder at the same time. The bandit leader's foot went limp, and he almost knelt on the ground, but was supported by the woman walking beside him.The two looked at each other, the woman's expression was numb, but the bandit leader's eyes flashed a sinister look.

The sun was scorching the yellow sand, and the temperature was getting higher and higher. He Ning tightened the cloth towel wrapped around his head, unscrewed the water bag, took a sip by himself, fed the two sand cats, and poured the rest into the green lizard mouth.

The bump on the back of the green lizard seems to have grown a bit, and it can be sensed that it is very uncomfortable now, and it always wants to find a place to rub against, tree trunks, rocks, and neither.He Ning asked it if it hurt or itched, but the green lizard just tilted its head to look at him, hissed and continued to rub.It wasn't enough, and he rolled in the yellow sand, seeing that He Ning didn't know what to say.Fortunately, the green lizard's scales are thick enough, otherwise it would have to rub off its skin.

But this is also a problem. If it really has wings and thick scales, it is very likely that the green lizard will suffer a lot.No matter how I think about it, my brother will inevitably suffer.

The water bladder was empty, He Ning snapped his fingers, and a stream of water appeared out of thin air.Such a scene no longer arouses the surprise of the knights.According to He Ning's words, no matter how strange things are, the more times you see them, the more you will get used to them.

The green lizard was gulping water, and the black lizard came over, looking at He Ning unblinkingly with its big blood red eyes.He Ning didn't speak, but snapped his fingers again, and a stream of cool water poured directly into the black lizard's mouth.

Hei Li was full, He Ning pulled down the cloth scarf around his face, looked at Moody, "Do you need water?"

A water bag was handed in front of him, the corner of He Ning's mouth twitched, this guy was getting more and more impolite.

Along the way, I didn't meet a caravan or herdsman, nor did I have an oasis, and all the water sources depended on He Ning.When he watered the green lizard for the first time, except for Moody, the rest of the people dropped their jaws in shock. Two riders let go of the reins in surprise and almost rolled off the camel.The knights saw the scene at the Tianshen Festival, and together with the scene in front of them, the knights put a bigger question mark in their hearts about He Ning's identity.

The benefits of having He Ning around are obvious, even if there is no oasis, you don't have to worry about being thirsty to death.

Why do desert robbers succeed in the oasis repeatedly?Caravans traveling north and south, even knowing that there are bandits near the oasis, still take risks, not for anything else, but for water.Changing the route rashly and staying away from the oasis can indeed avoid the robbers, but the replenishment of water and food will become a more serious problem.In the desert, without water, there is no chance of survival.The businessman who escaped from the deserted city and was rescued by the pond was not ordinary.

He Ning handed the filled water bag to Modi, then turned to look at the knights, "Whose water bag is empty?"

Immediately, more than [-] water bags were lifted up. He Ning signaled them to unscrew the lid. In the sky, several clear and transparent water streams formed a water curtain reflecting colorful light. The water droplets splashed and dipped into the yellow sand, attracting A small herd of antelope nearby, followed by a few desert wolves.

Immediately, a knight picked up the bow and arrow, and stood in a stalemate for a while. Seeing that the animal did not come forward, he put down the bow and arrow again.The nation living in the desert respects the strong as the king, but they will not easily hunt and kill animals when there is no need.There are far more killings between humans than conflicts between humans and animals.

The animals gathered more and more, and the knights guarded and watered them in batches.

Moody put down the water bag and wiped his lips, a line of water slipped down the corner of his lips and disappeared, making people think.

Looking into the distance with blue eyes, the corner of the rocky mountain can be faintly seen. The two robbers are supporting each other, looking longingly at the water curtain in the sky, but they dare not step forward.

The first time they saw such a spectacle, the two robbers were so shocked that they looked at He Ning as if they were looking at a monster.

Regarding the robber's reaction, He Ning just curled his lips and didn't take it to heart at all.If it were not for another purpose, he would not have spared the lives of these two robbers.As time passed, his heart became harder and harder, and with the influence of another thought, he was able to control himself from tearing these two people apart, which was considered pretty good.

The knights all filled their water sacs, and the water curtain in the sky still did not disappear. The two robbers boldly stepped forward to drink a couple of sips before being driven on their way.After the team left, small puddles were left in the yellow sand, and the animals gathered nearby stepped forward one after another, huddling together to enjoy the coolness and sweetness.

The hot wind blew across the desert, bringing the noise of the animals. He Ning looked back at the scene behind him and couldn't help laughing.Before he could take back his smile, a whip was suddenly wrapped around his waist, and he was pulled up, and landed on Hei Li's back in an instant.

He Ning frowned, what is this for?

Moody put away his whip, lifted the cloth towel wrapped around He Ning's face, and brushed his lower lip with his thumb, "Aren't you tired?"

"what?"

"Close your eyes." Moody supported He Ning by the back of the neck, and held He Ning in his arms. Under the high temperature, holding him like this should have been hotter, but Moody's body temperature was a little low. It won't be uncomfortable, "sleep for a while."

He Ning: "..." Their thinking patterns are indeed not on the same frequency.

The green lizard was dissatisfied with He Ning being "captured", and roared at Moody, the two sand cats left on the camel also showed their claws, without Moody's hands, the black lizard opened its mouth and roared, No matter the volume or the momentum, the green lizard has a steady voltage.

Seeing the green lizard's attacking posture, He Ning quickly waved at it, "I'm fine, don't worry." He patted the black lizard again, "Don't bully my brother, be careful I won't give you water."

The threat was very effective, the black lizard stopped barking, Moody looked down at He Ning, this great witch, his own great witch, was really different.

The corner of his mouth hooked, and he pressed He Ning into his arms again, "Rest."

He Ning knew that it was useless to object, so he moved to make himself more comfortable, and closed his eyes.

After getting in touch for a long time, although He Ning can't figure out the thoughts of the city lord, he has a certain understanding of his character, which cannot be described as being overbearing.No matter how kind and gentle he is, his nature cannot be hidden.The domineering nature of his temperament will always be revealed.

Every time he recalled that he almost died when he met Mu Di for the first time, and was tied up with a whip by him when they met again, He Ning's back would feel cold.

Regarding the whip, He Ning really has a psychological shadow.

"Can we discuss it?" He Ning opened his eyes, "Let's talk but not move next time?"

Mu Di didn't speak, and hugged He Ning tighter. Under the scarf and robe, golden scales appeared faintly from his cheeks. He Ning could feel that his body temperature had dropped again. He looked at it for a while in doubt, After all, he didn't have the courage to pull back the robe in front of him to find out.

He's out of his mind to do such stupid things.

The hottest part of the day gradually passed, and the sun was no longer harsh. As the evening approached, the team finally arrived at the rocky mountain where the robbers hid their treasures.

The two bandits sat on the ground limply, gasping for breath, their voices sounded like they were coming from a bellows, "Just under the rocky mountain, there is a natural cave, all... are there."

When the bandit leader spoke, his head was lowered. The woman supporting him was kneeling on the sand, her hands groping in the yellow sand without a trace. In the blink of an eye, a large pit suddenly appeared on the ground, and the two robbers fell into the pit almost at the same time. At the same time as she sank, the woman let out a hoarse howl, as harsh as rocks rubbing against each other. There was no panic in the cry, only full of malice.

He Ning had already returned to the back of the camel, looking at Yanshan, his heart skipped a beat.

Several knights immediately jumped off the camels and went to the place where the robber disappeared to check, but the sandpit had disappeared.

At the same time, a black cloud rose from the rocky mountain, and hundreds of scavenging birds flapped their wings and made hoarse calls, rushing straight towards the knights.This is the territory of scavenging birds, intruders will only die!

The knights immediately formed a defensive formation, tightened the reins, and controlled the camels. The black lizard and the green lizard roared at the same time, but He Ning's expression was very calm.There seemed to be a hint of a smile in the calm.

Pulling off the hood, the long hair fluttered in the airflow of the scavenging bird, the black eyes became deeper and deeper, and he raised his head and let out a long howl, the murderous scavenging bird suddenly became quiet, and as the sound continued, hovering The scavenging birds in the air seemed to be drawn by a force, returning to the rocky mountain one after another.

After the scavenger-eating birds dispersed, He Ning lowered his head and patted the sand cat in his arms. The two kittens jumped off the camel like a flash of light, and circled twice at the place where the two robbers disappeared, meowing. Shouting, he found a spot, and quickly dug up.

He Ning pulled the rein, and the camel took two steps back.Looking at the yellow sand under the camel's feet, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

The ground near the sand cat suddenly began to tremble, and human screams came out.

Meow!

The two sand cats jumped up at the same time, and grabbed their sharp claws fiercely. A column of blood rose into the sky, and the corpse of the bandit leader rolled out of the yellow sand. The woman in the pit was nowhere to be seen.

He Ning jumped off the camel, ran over in a few steps, squatted down, a black rock appeared under the yellow sand, the slope had been hollowed out, and the stone slab blocking the entrance of the cave was removed to allow only one person to pass through.

There are strange-looking patterns engraved on the stone slab, which seem to be formed naturally or carved by man. There seems to be a natural barrier near the slate to isolate the yellow sand.

Is this where the robbers hid their treasure?

He Ning looked at the bandit leader who was so dead that he couldn't die anymore. The sand cat's claws were too fast, and it was impossible to keep people under its claws. I don't know what happened, whether to go down or not?

Mu Di walked up to He Ning, looked at the stone slab blocking the entrance of the cave, a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes, he took He Ning's hand and pressed it on the stone slab, the strange pattern suddenly began to glow, and then gradually dimmed after a short period of light, and finally Turned into a gray one.

The stone slab collapsed, and the ground seemed to tremble twice.

"This is?"

"My blood." Moody's voice was very soft, "Perhaps it should be said, the blood of the emperor 400 years ago."

He Ning was full of question marks, but Mu Di didn't answer him. He took ten knights with him, and the rest of them stayed outside, and dragged He Ning into the dark cave.

The black lizard wanted to follow, but couldn't get in. The same was true for the green lizard. The two sand cats were not among them. They meowed twice and followed the team into the entrance of the cave, flicking their tails, very proud.

The tunnel was long and winding, with traces of torches burning on the walls. Two knights opened the way ahead, Moody and He Ning walked in the middle of the team, and the rest followed behind.

The feet are not flat, and occasionally there will be a clicking sound. When you look down, you will find that all are broken bones, whether it is a human or an animal.

After an unknown amount of time, a light came from the corner, everyone quickened their pace, and their eyes suddenly brightened.

In the man-made cave, there are countless gold coins and precious stones, all kinds of ornaments, gold pots and silver plates scattered on the ground, and there are more than a dozen full boxes by the wall, pearls and precious stones are scattered from the lids of the boxes. And out, a piece of jewels.

He Ning's throat felt dry. Facing everything in front of him, no matter how calm he was, his heart would beat faster.

Calm down?Can't calm down.

Suddenly, He Ning's left ear started to heat up, and the golden scepter around Moody's waist also buzzed, and there was a vibration from the soles of his feet, and the piled up gold coins suddenly collapsed and slid down.

He Ning couldn't stand still, the broken stones falling from the top of his head reminded him of what happened at the bottom of the temple, his head began to dizzy again, he was clasped by the shoulders while shaking, and pulled into Modi's arms.

"How is this going?"

The tremor became more and more intense, and the silver earbuds diffused golden light, and a voice sounded in He Ning's mind, as if calling him to a certain place.

He Ning turned his head unconsciously, looking at the collapsing Jinshan Mountain, but was held tightly in Mu Di's arms, and the familiar yet unfamiliar voice rang out again and again in his ears, "Great Witch, belongs to me!"

After a long time, the shaking finally stopped, and under the mountains of gold and precious stones, there was another hole.
