Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 874 Heading towards Loulan
  Xiao Li, who left the Sha Ship Lord's Palace, was once again sent back to the cage where she was imprisoned. Her position was on the deck, next to Tian Ming Shao Yu and two other people.

Qin Jun is also quite humane. He is divided into male and female cells. Tianming and Shaoyu are in a cage for two men, while Xiaoli is in a separate cell.

The space is not small, but a bit crude. Specifically, there is nothing except people and fences.

Three meals a day are served on a fixed basis, but they are relatively simple and bland and enough to fill you up.

They sleep directly on the floor. The temperature in the desert is high anyway. After the temperature cools down at night, they cover the cage with a cloth.

Overall...it's not bad. It's no worse than riding a camel alone in the desert. At least you don't have to worry about food and drink.

This is why Shaoyu and the others can still endure the life of prisoners.

When General Fruit and his lieutenant Ma Zhu escorted Xiao Li back, it was almost time for lunch, so they brought the lunch of the three of them over.

One bowl of thick soup per person, plus two steamed buns.

Shaoyu and Tianming felt relieved when they saw Xiaoli coming back safe and sound.

People safe is good.

General Fruit here abandoned the lunch of the three of them, and started talking to Shao Yu and the others with an unpretentious look on his face, mocking the opponent's identity as a prisoner.

Shaoyu and the others were immune to this.

Ever since he was caught, this Qin general who could tell from his accent that he was an old Qin man had always been embarrassed in front of them.

According to the private analysis of the three of them, it was most likely that this fat general... was too idle.

Anyway, this guy was just talking nonsense, and actually had no intention of abusing the prisoners. Shaoyu and the others were too lazy to argue with him in this useless way, and learned to completely ignore each other.

In the end, after the fruit general commented on the status of the three prisoners, the impossibility of escape, the simplicity of the meals, the discomfort of basking in the sun, etc., he left with his lieutenant satisfied.

Seeing that he finally left, Shaoyu and Tianming hurried to the side of the cage next to Xiaoli.

Tianming grabbed the railing, pressed his head against the fence and asked with concern:
  "Xiao Li, are you okay?"

Xiao Li shook his head slightly, "I'm fine. Tianming, Shaoyu, I made you worry."

Tianming rubbed the back of his head and laughed, "It's okay, hehe."

Shao Yu then asked, "Xiao Li, what do the people of Qin want to do with you?"

"Uh..." Xiao Li pondered for a moment.

She felt that Gu Xun seemed to be deliberately hiding her traces, so after thinking about it, she decided to conceal her previous meeting with Gu Xun, and only talked about her subsequent meeting with Gong Shuqi and them.

"That high-ranking official of the Qin State seems to have asked Gongshu Qiu. He wants me to tell him the whereabouts of the dragon soul."

"He asked for a long time, but I ignored him. Then he seemed very unhappy, but the white-haired swordsman said not to cause trouble, so they put me back."

"The white-haired swordsman... is Wei Zhuang, how could he do that?" After hearing this, Shao Yu roughly understood the situation at that time, and couldn't help but touch his chin in thought.

There is nothing to say about what Gong Shuqiu did, but why did Wei Zhuang protect Xiao Li?
  Don't make things extraneous... Dragon Soul is one of their main targets, how can this be considered an extraneous thing?
  Tian Ming was very considerate. After hearing these words, he saw Shao Yu thinking and slapped him on the shoulder harshly.

"Okay, little brother Shaoyu, don't think so much. Li is fine anyway, and the dragon soul hasn't fallen into their hands. Isn't that enough?"

His thoughts were interrupted by Tian Ming's actions, and Shao Yu no longer struggled. At the moment, they could only take one step at a time, and it was useless to think too much.

But Tianming must fight.

He shook Tianming's hand with a shake of his shoulder, then clenched his fist and emphasized with an unkind expression, "Brother Tianming, I think you can't tell the difference between elder and younger again."

"I'm the eldest brother!"

Tian Ming did not flinch at this, raised his head and replied firmly, "I am the eldest brother!"

"I'm the eldest brother!"

"I'm the eldest brother!"

…    The two of them fought together and had a cordial and friendly exchange about the position of the eldest brother.

Of course, Shao Yu was born with supernatural power, and even if he deliberately held back his hand, it was not something that Tian Ming could win, so he was basically ravaged one-sidedly.

It's not that much of an injury, it just looks desolate.

Xiao Li was not surprised by this scene.

Since the three were arrested and it was determined that there was no immediate danger to their lives, the two of them had been messing around a lot.

In the beginning, Xiao Li would try to break up fights, but now he is completely used to it, and it has become a sideshow.

At this time, a small beast appeared from behind Xiao Li, watching the struggle for supremacy between Shao Yu and Tianming with excitement.

His smart eyes were full of eagerness to try, and his body was ready to move, as if he wanted to get involved.

When the three were arrested, Xiao Xiu Xiu was hidden in advance.

After that, he took advantage of his small size and secretly followed Xiao Li and the others without being discovered. Occasionally, when no one was watching around, he would pop up and have sex with Xiao Li and the others.

In this way, the girl with the mission and her friends headed towards Loulan in an orderly manner.

………………

It was night, in the desert of the Western Regions, the sand ships of the Qin Army were still driving forward amidst the roar.

Under the night starlight, two shadows were silently following the sand boat.

Both of them were riding camels and wearing hats.

But one of them is a man, wearing a swordsman's uniform. He is Ge Nie.

The other is a woman, wearing a beautiful dress, and is a snow girl.

The two of them had internal body protection, so they were not afraid of the scorching heat of the desert, but no one liked being exposed to the sun all the time, so they both wore hats.

The two of them were not traveling the same way. They went their separate ways during the day, and they only found each other after nightfall.

The purpose is roughly the same, and since they don't have to deal with the Qin army, they can naturally be regarded as companions, and the two of them have a tacit understanding and become companions.

The two men drove camels and followed the sand boats with speckled lights in the distance in a leisurely manner.

The snow girl glanced at Gai Nie through the gap in the bamboo hat curtain. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Mr. Gai...are you here for that child?"

Gai Nie looked at the sand ship from a distance, his eyes as calm as water, and softly replied, "That's right."

"Mr. Gai's defection was also because of him?" Xue Nu asked further.

"...That's right." Gai Nie's eyes flickered a few times before he answered vaguely.

After receiving these two affirmative answers, the snow girl couldn't help but have doubts in her eyes, "Why? What is the relationship between him and Mr. Gai? Do you want to..."

"..." Gai Nie was silent for a moment, but did not hide anything. He answered truthfully, "Protecting this child is a promise I made to an old friend."

The snow girl's palms caressed the camel's down, and she probably knew who the old friend Ge Nie was talking about was.

But she had never heard that Jing Ke had Gai Nie as a friend, and no one in the Mo family knew about it.

The reverse is also true.

"I've never heard that Sword Master Genie has friends?"

Gai Nie looked at the stars shining in the sky with complicated eyes, and replied in a low tone, "That's it."

"only one!"
