Ambush
"Qin Bing, don't worry. The title of North Sea Sword Monarch was bestowed upon me by the king of Beiyang Country. The matters of Beiyang Country are my matters! I guarantee you that I will definitely rescue them. "Ye Fei's expression was a little cold.
After all, the title of North Sea Sword Monarch represented the North Sea and Beiyang Country. Now that he heard that Beiyuan Country had used such despicable means to target Beiyang Country, Ye Fei was really angry.
Furthermore, Ye Fei felt that he was partly responsible for Beiyuan Country's actions. "This time, I am duty-bound. I will definitely rescue Zhu Zhen and the rest!"
Ye Fei clenched his fists tightly. Qin Bing finally relaxed when he heard this. He muttered, "Thank you, thank you. Ye Fei, I'll leave their matters to you..."
Dong!
Before Qin Bing could finish his sentence, he couldn't hold on any longer and fainted again. Ye Fei hurriedly supported Qin Bing. After checking him, he found that Qin Bing was only mentally exhausted and that the fire poison in his body had been removed. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief and settle Qin Bing in a room to recuperate.
Ye Fei walked back to the deck.
It was already late at night and the surroundings were dark. Qian Xiaolong parked the sand boat in a safe space and started repairing the parts of the sand boat that had been damaged by the sandworms.
Faint whispers of laughter could be heard from the deck.
However, when Ye Fei walked out, all the chatter and laughter immediately disappeared. The hundreds of cultivators all stood up and looked at Ye Fei with faces full of respect.
During the battle during the day, Ye Fei had used his own actions to ignite their fighting spirit. At the same time, he had won their hearts. They also respected Ye Fei from the bottom of their hearts.
"Sword Monarch, the North Sea Sword Monarch has come out."
"It's all thanks to the Sword Monarch this time. Otherwise, we would have become food for the sandworms. Please accept our bow."
Many warriors came over to bow, but Ye Fei hurriedly waved his hand to stop them.
"Brothers, there's no need for this. As the saying goes, we are all brothers in the world. When we're outside, it's only right that we help each other." Ye Fei also cupped his hands politely.
Many martial artists were taken aback. "Brothers everywhere?" He had never heard of this before. Who would have thought that not only was the North Sea Sword Monarch outstanding in martial arts, but his literary talent was also remarkable.
As expected of the North Region's genius!
The way the warriors looked at Ye Fei was no longer one of respect, but of worship. However, Ye Fei did not say much to these people. He walked up to the deck and went straight to Qian Xiaolong.
"Boss Qian, I have a favor to ask of you," Ye Fei said.
"Brother Ye, you asked me to take good care of your friend. You can rest assured about that. But are you sure it's okay for you to go to the desert alone to save someone?" Qian Xiaolong looked at Ye Fei shrewdly, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
"If there is a problem, I have to go. The Northern Ocean Monarch is my benefactor. Many of the Northern Ocean Monarchs are my friends. If a friend is in trouble, even if there is a mountain of knives and a sea of fire in front of me, I have to go in and take a risk," Ye Fei said coldly. He did not ask how Qian Xiaolong knew of his plan.
Qian Xiaolong nodded and agreed with Ye Fei's approach. He did not ask how Ye Fei would survive after leaving the sand boat. He knew that since Ye Fei dared to do this, he must have some kind of confidence.
"Brother, please rest assured. Your friend is my friend. He will receive the best care," Qian Xiaolong promised.
"Then I'll leave it to you. Oh right, this is for you. With it, you won't have to worry about being surrounded by bandits."
Ye Fei thought for a moment and gave the map to Qian Xiaolong. This way, Qin Bing's safety could be guaranteed.
When Qian Xiaolong picked up the map and looked at it, he was shocked. "It's actually a map of the bandits' defenses. If one is not a bandit commander or above, one will not be able to obtain this. Brother, you have given me a generous gift!"
Qian Xiaolong beamed with joy. He almost treated this map like a treasure. Ye Fei was stunned. Why was the bandit commander's map hidden so well in Shen Tu Ming's ring?
Could it be that Shen Tu Ming had killed a bandit commander before?
Ye Fei was a little puzzled. However, now was not the time to think about this. Compared to this, he was more anxious to save Zhu Zhen and the others.
After all, Long Gang and Zhang Dazhuang were Ye Fei's close friends in the imperial capital. He did not wish for anything to happen to Long Gang and the others.
"Qin Bing said that after they were captured, the bandits directly said that they would be sent to Shawang City. If I want to save them, I have to think of a way to sneak into Shawang City."
Ye Fei thought to himself. Then, according to his memory on the map, he hurried towards Shawang City. This was to prevent being discovered by the bandits.
On the way, Ye Fei thought of a good idea. He simply put on a bandit's uniform. After all, the desert's terrain was special. Other than the bandits, normal warriors would not be able to withstand the desert's fire poison and walk on the sand.
Therefore, as long as Ye Fei put on a bandit's uniform, it would be easy for him to disguise himself as a bandit. What he was troubled about now was that Shawang City was the bandit's lair. The checks would definitely be very strict. If he wanted to sneak in, even if he disguised himself as a bandit, it would not be easy.
Just as Ye Fei was thinking about it.
Rumble!
The sand dune in front of him suddenly rose and a few grey figures appeared. When they saw Ye Fei, they scolded him.
"What bad luck. We are here to ambush and catch sandworms. Why did a hothead come out and step into our trap?!"
Ye Fei was speechless when he realized that he had been too engrossed in his thoughts. He had almost stepped into a trap set up by the bandits.
"Looks like I wasn't careful enough." Ye Fei thought to himself.
Seeing Ye Fei standing at the edge of the trap without saying a word, the bandits were angered again. They jumped out and pointed at Ye Fei's nose, scolding, "Kid, where are you from? Why haven't we seen you before? Also, why are you alone? Don't tell me you're a deserter?"
"Deserter?" Ye Fei was very surprised. Could there be deserters among the bandits?
Seeing Ye Fei's stunned expression, the bandits were delighted. At the same time, they smiled maliciously and surrounded him.
"Haha, there's no need to ask. We, the bandits, travel in groups. This kid is alone and stuttering. He must be a deserter!"
"The Commander said that if we catch a deserter, we will be rewarded 100,000 spirit crystals. If we kill one, the reward will be the same. Everyone, what do you think? Should we kill him or take him back and ask for a reward?" The bandits exchanged glances. There was an obvious killing intent in their eyes.
Ye Fei finally regained his composure. He suddenly had a good idea. He quickly retreated in fear and said, "Brothers, please don't kill me. I'm here to deliver a message. Our Commander has captured a deserter from the Northern Ocean Kingdom. He doesn't know what to do with him so he specially sent me here to deliver the message."
"What? A prince of the Northern Ocean Kingdom? This is a great merit."
"I really envy your Commander!"
"How about this? Brother, it's obvious that this is your first time in Sand King City. You must not be familiar with many things. We can bring you to see the Commander, but you can't possibly let us come here for nothing."
Seeing that killing someone in exchange for a reward was not an option, the bandits refused to give up. They stared at Ye Fei like he was a fat sheep.
Ye Fei naturally understood their intentions. They were jealous of his merit and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to gain some benefits. Fine, with these people bringing him into the city, he would not be suspected.
"Brothers, what are you saying? How can I let you come here for nothing? Brothers, I picked up this pile of spirit crystals on the way here. Take a look and see if you dropped them." Ye Fei generously tossed out a large pile of spirit crystals. The bandits' eyes immediately lit up like wolves.
"Haha, Brother, thank you. These spirit crystals were indeed dropped by us. It's all thanks to Brother that we picked them up. "
