Hearing Li Chuan's words, Ji Yunshu felt uneasy.
She felt that something would happen on this trip!
She didn't want to leave him, but she didn't want to bring him any trouble!
After all, they were in dire straits. If they didn't eat, they might starve to death.
She could only nod and wait here.
Li Chuan only descended the sand dune after the people by the water source had set up their tents and rested.
There were only a few people guarding nearby, but there were still blind spots. Plus, Li Chuan's martial arts weren't bad, so he easily entered.
Ji Yunshu lay on the sand dune, watching the situation worriedly.
Li Chuan quietly circled to the back of the tent, planning to take some supplies and then think of a way to get two camels to leave.
He aimed at the direction and smoothly slipped into the tent where the supplies were placed.
There were no candles lit inside!
There was only a sliver of light from the moonlight.
These people had brought out a lot of things!
They ate and drank a lot.
It was enough for them to use for several months!
He rummaged inside and found a lot of dry rations and ham, as well as some food that could be stored for a long time.
To make it easier to travel, Li Chuan only took enough dry rations for him and Ji Yunshu for half a month. It was easy to carry and wouldn't be discovered!
Just as he was about to go out —
He accidentally bumped into a large box, making a muffled sound.
In the quiet night, this small sound immediately attracted the attention of the people guarding outside.
"There seems to be a sound?" The people outside pricked their ears.
"There's no sound!"
"I really heard it."
"They're too vigilant. Who could be nearby? There's a large desert. "
"It's better to be careful. If something happens, we won't be able to bear the consequences."
Hearing this, the person hurriedly nodded. "Let's go in and take a look!"
The two of them approached the tent where the sound had come from.
Li Chuan hid inside and watched as two figures gradually approached.
The tent's curtains were pulled open!
The two people walked in one after the other. Because it was too dark, he couldn't see very clearly.
"Who? Who's inside? "
As soon as he finished shouting —
Li Chuan raised his hand and hit the back of the two people's necks.
The two figures fell down at the same time.
But it caused a commotion!
This alerted the others outside.
They were all people who had rolled on the edge of a knife before, so they were more sensitive to the slightest movement. Moreover, the mission of transporting the coffin was very important, so they didn't dare to be careless.
They surrounded the tent where the sound came from.
In the end, Li Chuan was still injured. No matter how powerful he was, he couldn't resist so many hands.
He should have been more careful just now!
If he died, then so be it!
However, if they found out about his master's identity, he would definitely be in trouble!
Seeing the shadows approaching, he held his breath and decided to fight with all his might.
Charge out!
But at that critical moment — —
The neighing of horses could be heard from outside.
It broke the tense atmosphere.
When the people outside heard this sudden movement, they quickly shifted their gazes and ran towards the source of the sound.
For some reason, the camels and horses that were tied together quietly were frightened.
They began to flee in all directions.
The desert was so big, without horses and camels, it was tantamount to suicide.
So, they couldn't care less about the sound coming from the tent and quickly chased after him!
The people who were resting were also woken up by the sound.
The general came out with two fierce eyebrows and quickly ordered, "What are you all still standing there for? Quickly go and capture those beasts. "
"Yes." Almost all of the twenty people moved out!
Taking advantage of this, Li Chuan hurried out of the tent with the dry rations and took the two camels that were still in place.
He hurried up the sand dune!
Fortunately, it was dark and he didn't notice.
But —
When he returned to his original position, he didn't see Ji Yunshu!
Where did that woman go?
It was so late, she couldn't have left alone.
Also, she couldn't have left.
Li Chuan looked at the tent on the other side and immediately understood.
The camels and horses in the desert were the most obedient and wouldn't go out of control for no reason. Someone must have done something!
Could it be her?
If that was the case, she might still be trapped in the tent and hadn't come out.
Li Chuan was anxious and angry.
He had clearly repeatedly told her to stay where she was and wait, but she still followed him in.
But if it wasn't for Ji Yunshu, he wouldn't have been able to come out so smoothly! At this moment, he was hesitating. He didn't want her to follow him all the way, so why not take advantage of this opportunity to leave? Even if she really fell into the hands of those people, they might not do anything to her. Perhaps, they might even bring her along.
But this was better than staying by his side!
With this thought in mind, he analyzed the situation from beginning to end.
He steeled his heart!
He turned around and led the camels away …
Ji Yunshu was indeed trapped in the tent!
She was worried that something would happen to Li Chuan, so she took the risk and followed him. Coincidentally, she saw those people approaching Li Chuan's tent. The only thing she could think of was to startle the horses and camels to divert their attention.
As it turned out, it was indeed effective!
She had nowhere to run, so she immediately hid in a tent.
But she didn't expect that there was a coffin covered with a black cloth inside the tent.
There were two lit candles beside the coffin!
She was used to seeing things like this, so she naturally didn't feel afraid!
After waiting for the people outside to disperse one by one, she prepared to leave quietly, but inadvertently, she caught the black cloth.
The black cloth on the coffin was lifted as she walked forward.
It softly fell to the ground!
She hurriedly picked it up and was about to cover the coffin when …
But she saw that the coffin lid didn't close.
It was probably because those people were careless when they moved the coffin before, and the lid moved a little.
The strange thing was that there wasn't any rotten smell coming from the coffin!
Out of curiosity, Ji Yunshu peeked through the small gap.
With one look, she suddenly realized what was going on.
There was indeed a corpse lying inside.
But it wasn't a rotten corpse, and there weren't any white bones.
Instead, it was a dried corpse covered in a yellow magua!
From the degree of wrinkles on the skin, this dried corpse was at least ten years old!
This was the first time she saw a dried corpse since she transmigrated here!
It wasn't excitement!
But curiosity!
Probably because of her profession, she really wanted to open the coffin lid and take a good look at this dried corpse.
Perhaps, there would be a big discovery.
Of course, thinking was just thinking. She couldn't offend the dead.
As she covered the corpse with the black cloth again, she pondered in her heart …
Yellow magua?
And it had been dead for more than ten years?
