Chapter 18: Gold and Demons

All the people looked like this, so much so that their horses were worried and arched their masters, thinking that something was wrong with them.

After waiting for a full pillar of incense, Tie Xinyuan got up from the sand nest in confusion, and until now, he didn't hear the fourth sound.

There were more than one people coming out of the sandstone mountain, and they looked very strange, like zombies without souls, and they staggered out of the mountain pass.

Obviously there was a deep ditch seven or eight feet high in front of them, but they took a step with their eyes open, and their bodies fell to the bottom of the ditch with a thud like a leather bag filled with water.

The guy who was lucky not to fall into the deep ditch walked down the mountain road, and then wandered around the Gobi like a lonely ghost.

Tie Xinyuan picked up a gold ingot from the rocks not far away, this gold ingot still exuded a faint heat, Tie Xinyuan smiled and slapped the gold ingot on the hand of Xu Dongsheng, who was in shock.

Unexpectedly, this action frightened Xu Dongsheng, as if his hands were burned, and he threw the gold far away with a shudder.

Tie Xinyuan didn't explain, found a basket on the back of the war horse, and began to look for gold ingots everywhere in the Gobi.

Under the scorching sun, the Gobi Desert is full of yellow gold ingots......

Meng Yuanzhi carefully picked a gold ingot into the basket in Tie Xinyuan's hand with a spear and asked, "Why?" ”

Tie Xinyuan dropped the heavy basket, beat his waist like an old farmer who had finished harvesting his crops, and said: "The world is a treasure, and the virtuous live in it!" ”

Xu Dongsheng asked in a low voice behind him: "You are the virtuous person?" ”

Tie Xinyuan gritted his white teeth and smiled, "What? Not like? ”

"I didn't see it, really!"

"Then take your time, and one day you'll admit it."

Tie Xinyuan put the basket full of gold in front of the war horse, found a pocket and continued to pick up gold all over the world with great excitement, and the fire could not destroy the gold. Similarly, an explosion will not destroy gold.

Until now, Tie Xinyuan's only worry is the little wild man who was hidden by himself, until now, he can't see the little wild man, I hope he can survive safely.

The fourth explosion was delayed. Tie Xinyuan didn't dare to walk into that sandstone mountain easily, if the fourth explosion exploded after he walked into the mountain, he would follow in the footsteps of the sand thieves.

Xu Dongsheng grabbed a sand thief wandering around, and after he saw the person in front of him clearly, he let go of him.

This is a bleeding sand pirate...... Xu Dongsheng didn't think that this guy would be able to live until the sun set.

Tie Xinyuan didn't enter the sandstone mountain, Xu Dongsheng made up his mind not to enter, that sandstone mountain was a terrifying existence for him.

After a while, Tie Xinyuan basically recovered all the gold that was knocked away by the blast wave. Although there was still a lot of gold smashed into the sand, he didn't have much of the heart to search for it.

Perhaps many years later, the travelers in the Gobi suddenly picked out a piece of gold from the sand, and that must have been a very interesting thing.

The battle began in the morning, and now that the sun had set in the west, there was no smoke rising from the valley, and the last box of gunpowder had not exploded for so long. I guess it's safe.

Tie Xinyuan lowered his posture and almost climbed the low sandstone mountain. His head peeked through a slit at the hollow, then retracted his head, a feeling of disgust welled up in his chest, and he vomited as he lay on his stomach on a slightly raised piece of sandstone.

Tie Yi was very nervous and hugged Tie Xinyuan and went down the hill, seeing the tragic situation of Tie Xinyuan's tearful exchange, even the most daring Meng Yuanzhi had cold hairs standing on end.

The explosion just experienced. Completely beyond his cognition, Da Song was not without gunpowder, but those gunpowders had never made such a terrifying explosion.

He couldn't have connected the fireworks in the puppet to the tragic explosion anyway.

"Heavenly Punishment!"

This is the only statement that Meng Yuanzhi can explain.

Tie Xinyuan finally stopped vomiting, and pointed to the place where the plow was used to be and said to Xu Dongsheng with a pale face: "Okay, it's safe inside." I can go and pick up all the gold that has been scattered. ”

Xu Dongsheng didn't move, leaned against a rock wall and said: "Don't worry, the sand thieves in this Gobi should be here, and the gold is also here, so it's not a problem to pick it up sooner or later." ”

Tie Xinyuan shook his head, pulled out his handkerchief and tightened it on his mouth and nose, if he wanted to save the little savage, he had to pass through the flesh and blood slaughterhouse.

Tie Yi gritted his teeth and rushed into the mountain pass in front of Tie Xinyuan, while Tie Er and the others followed behind Tie Xinyuan with the idea of dying.

There is no longer a plough in the valley, and there is not a single shadow to be seen, but those rock walls are inlaid with gold ingots.

Tie Yi's face was very ugly, he had seen countless tragic battlefields, and in an instant he thought that he had come to hell, even if there was still a round of white sun above his head, it was still gloomy and miserable here.

He used his scimitar to remove the severed limbs that stood in front of him, but he didn't expect this to cause the half-entrailed corpse to slide off the sandstone, and he hurriedly dodged away, watching the half-cut corpse fall into a pile of slippery stomachs.

Such intestines are almost everywhere, such stumps are almost everywhere, and the rock walls of the valley are not only inlaid with gold, but also inlaid with countless broken skulls.

Tie Xinyuan tried his best not to look at the situation in the hollow, but held his head high, but the strong fishy smell still drilled through the handkerchief into his nose, resisted the desire to vomit, stepped on something slippery and greasy under his feet, and stumbled into the depths of the valley.

The situation in the depths of the valley was a little better, except that the narrow passage was tightly blocked by the fallen horses and men, and there was not much damage on the bodies of these people and horses, except for countless red spots under the skin, and the sound waves generated by the explosion of gunpowder shook them to death.

This place is very suitable for gunpowder explosions, the terrain is confined and there is an echo, so that the energy generated by gunpowder is almost wasted and all is poured on them.

For some reason, Tie Xinyuan didn't feel much sadness after seeing these corpses, and a very strange thought rose in his mind.

There were no people in the Gobi in the first place, and after the death of such young people, I don't know how many tribes here will mysteriously disappear.

Overcoming the obstacles of horses and human corpses, he finally came to the gap where the little savage was.

The gap was backed by the point of the explosion, and everything was fine except for the fact that the tumbleweeds that had blocked the mouth of the gap had disappeared.

The little savage lay in the crevice, his face calm, as if he had fallen asleep.

Tie Yi pulled the little savage out of the gap, put the guard on the neck of the little savage, and then made a gesture towards Tie Xinyuan, Tie Xinyuan immediately sat in the pile of rubble, as long as the little guy is alive, it is a good thing.

Tie Yi and the others didn't understand why Tie Xinyuan regarded this little savage as so important, only Tie Xinyuan himself knew that after slaughtering hundreds of people, the little savage was the only elixir that could comfort his wandering heart.

Teichi slid down the other side of the hill with the little savage in his arms, and it was uncomfortable to leave the sandstone mountain like this, and even if it was uncomfortable, they didn't want to cross the land of death again.

The sand thieves roaming the Gobi are no longer visible, their souls may have really been taken away by the explosion, and all that remains is their bodies, driven by instinct to leave that terrible place.

Xu Dongsheng and Meng Yuanzhi's laughter echoed in the valley, and even if there was a hellish scene in the valley, it did not prevent them from venting their lost ecstasy.

Under the huge sunset, Tie Xinyuan and Tie Yi lit a bonfire, and there was a black iron pot hanging on the bonfire, which was still boiling yellow millet porridge, whether it was Tie Xinyuan or Tie Yi, they had no idea of eating meat.

Each of them held a small jar and sipped the strong tea brewed in the jar, while the little savage lay in a sheepskin sleeping bag and frowned, not knowing what he was dreaming about.

The majestic Xu Dongsheng led the servants to haunt the valley again and again, and with the great assistance of Meng Yuanzhi, they finally found all the gold ingots left in the valley.

The tired Xu Dongsheng lay on the cold Gobi in a large shape, spitting white gas in his mouth and smiled at Tie Xinyuan: "Brother Yuan, the gold is forty percent less!" ”

Meng Yuan, who was lying on the other side, beat his aching chest and said: "Heavenly punishment, heavenly punishment, there must be some benefits, if you can keep this gold, Lao Tzu is already very satisfied, very satisfied." ”

Tie Xinyuan handed them two bowls of rice porridge and said: "This place should not stay for a long time, we can't take away this little bit of gold, I suggest that you bring some gold with you, hide the rest, and we will leave here early tomorrow morning." ”

Xu Dongsheng didn't look at the subordinates with less than sixty people around, snorted and said, "Just do what you want, Lao Tzu can't afford to lose manpower anymore." ”

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Tie Xinyuan dragged his sleeping bag into it, pillowed his head on his small burden, and looked up to see the cold star that had just risen.

"You can't sleep here, you'll be swallowed by wolves."

Tie Xinyuan closed his eyes and said to Xu Dongsheng, who made the suggestion: "It doesn't matter, with that loud noise, the wolves within a radius of a hundred miles should run away." ”

"Heavenly punishment descends into the world, and all beasts avoid it, which is the right ......"

Too lazy to listen to Meng Yuan's nonsense, Tie Xinyuan chose a comfortable position and fell asleep.

He didn't want to pay attention to where Xu Dongsheng and Meng Yuan would bury the gold until the end, and he didn't want to know that the gold had become a prison for these two people, and no matter who touched it, they would be hit head-on.

The more they gave that gold, the more they cherished it, and Tie Xinyuan was worried that if the two of them continued to pay for it, the gold would not have a chance to spend a gold ingot, and the gold would probably end up with them in the grave. (To be continued.) )
