The moonlight is like water, gently shrouding the vast desert, the evening breeze is slow, with a bit of coolness, entering the desert at night becomes another face, no longer so hot, a little more quiet as water, the yellow sand lies quietly, in the moonlight, it is like playing with a tired sleeping child, quiet, peaceful.

In the courtyard of the trade stronghold, Li Rui stood quietly in the moonlight and watched the scene in front of him, and his heart was rarely calm, although it was only for a short time, just like the desert in front of him, it seemed to be calm, but it would not take long to set off a storm of sand, and it would be difficult for people who would be cold to bear.

Since the annihilation of the enemy's logistics troops, Li Rui quickly left the battlefield with his troops, and on the contrary, he came to this trade stronghold again to rest, at least there is clear water available here, and the traces of the battle are still there, but all the people have been taken away, not even a single gun has been left, and the previous terrorist patrols have also been taken away.

The courtyard was quiet, the brothers were in the room to seize the time to rest, ready for the next battle, Li Rui looked ahead, looked at the peaceful moonlight, looked at the depths of the vast desert, and calmed down, temporarily forgetting the war, forgetting the gunsmoke, and forgetting everything around, quietly enjoying this moment of tranquility, relaxing wholeheartedly, and greedily breathing fresh air.

After a while, there was a rustling of footsteps behind him, Li Rui didn't need to look back to know who was coming, woke up, smiled, and said softly: "Coming?" ”

"Well, you're alright." It was Lin Jing who walked over, and asked softly, with deep concern.

"I'm fine, be quiet, feel better." Li Rui said in a low voice.

"We only contacted the above once at noon, and after most of the day, do you want to get in touch, at least know the situation outside? The Allies have failed, and who knows what disgusting things they will do next? Lin Jing reminded in a low voice.

"Don't worry, let's talk about it before we act, and we won't be afraid to expose our position when the time comes." Li Rui said with a smile.

"Okay, listen to you." Lin Jing agreed indifferently.

The two stood quietly side by side, quietly looking ahead, the mood was extraordinarily quiet, the palms of the hands were naturally clasped together, the two hearts were also tightly attached, feeling each other's breathing, no one could bear to come over and disturb this rare world of two, the moonlight was quiet, and the shadows of the two were very long, very long, overlapping together.

I don't know how long it took, there was a sudden sound of camel bells in front of me, crisp, melodious, particularly harsh in the moonlight, as if someone was singing, Li Rui was startled, quickly took off the sniper rifle from his back and walked forward, while admonishing: "Go, inform the brothers to prepare for battle." ”

Soon, Li Rui rushed to hide under a low wall, set up a sniper rifle, looked forward through the sniper scope, and found that a person was riding a camel, this person was wrapped in a turban on his head, even his face was wrapped, he couldn't see his face, he was wearing local civilian clothes, he was not equipped with a gun, and he was dragging two small bags on the camel, I don't know what it contained, and he was swaying over with the movement of the camel.

"Huh?" Li Rui looked at this scene in disbelief, a little confused, it is impossible for locals to come to this desert at this time, there is more than one smuggling caravan, it is definitely not easy to come here alone, Li Rui cheered up, heard footsteps behind him and hurried over, looked back and saw that it was a red tiger, and immediately made a hidden gesture.

The red tiger pounced on the ground one by one, lay down and hidden, and quickly observed the person in front of him through the sniper scope, and couldn't help whispering in surprise: "It's weird, who dares to walk alone on this desert?" You cover, I'll go over and see the situation later. ”

"Okay, be careful." Li Rui agreed.

After waiting for a while, someone came up on a camel, and the red tiger got up from the bunker and shouted in a deep voice: "What person? ”

"Don't shoot, I'm here for you." The man shouted loudly, raised his hands as a sign of sincerity, and with no weapon in sight, the man jumped off his camel and walked on with the reins.

Chihu was worried that it was a human bomb, and he didn't allow the other party to get too close, so he quickly rushed up, raised his gun and aimed at the other party and said: "Stop, turn around, put your hands on the camel, and be examined." ”

The other party did not resist, put his hands high on the camel, turned his back to the red tiger, the red tiger stepped forward to search, there was no weapon on his body, no bomb, and then checked the package on the camel, there was nothing else in it except for Qing Shui, he couldn't help but be surprised, took a few steps back, stared at the other party vigilantly, and after making sure that there was no danger, he gave Li Rui a safe gesture and asked, "Who are you?" What are you doing here? ”

"I'm Iman, looking for your person in charge." The other party said in a deep voice.

"Iman? Turn around. Red Tiger was taken aback and hurriedly shouted.

The other party turned around slowly, his raised hands did not let go, and his whole body exuded a calm atmosphere, not like hostility, as long as it was not a human bomb Li Rui was not afraid of the other party, waved his head to signal the other party to continue to move forward, and kept a few meters of distance from behind, and walked towards the yard.

The brothers have all been hidden, and they will not come out without orders, so as not to reveal the location, who knows what the real purpose of this person is here? didn't dare to be careless, Li Rui came out from under the low wall, stared at each other vigilantly, and shook his head towards the room, Chihu nodded knowingly, and said in a deep voice: "Put the camel outside, enter the house." ”

The person who came did not resist, and threw the camel in the yard very cultivated, and walked directly to the room, the earthen house was not big, and there was a bonfire burning in the open space, and the firelight illuminated the room.

Chihu saw from this detail that people are not simple, thinking of the name reported by the other party, I couldn't help but believe a little, but the vigilance was higher, standing next to the other party and staring at each other silently, at this time, Li Rui opened the heavy curtain and came in, and saw that the person who came was sitting by the bonfire with a grin, not flustered, not afraid, as if everything was taken for granted, and immediately realized that the person who came was not simple, looked at Chihu, saw Chihu's face was solemn, and couldn't help cheering up, and asked: "I can see that you are a smart person, you dare to come here alone, say, What is your purpose? ”

"You're the Supreme Commander here?" The man named Iman asked in a deep voice.

"That's right, just say it bluntly, since you dare to come, you should be a smart person who knows how to pick colors, say it, who sent you." Li Rui said in a deep voice.

"My name is Iman, I'm sure you've heard of it." Iman said in a deep voice.

"Iman? Untie the scarf. Li Rui was taken aback, and said in a deep voice, his eyes were like torches, flashing a suspicious fox, staring at the other party, not letting go of any details.
