As soon as Liusha, the second leader of the bandits, died, the bandits with swords, shields and spears who were fighting on the wall suddenly lost their backbone, gave up resistance one after another, and turned around to flee for their lives.
Either flee to the steep camp on the mountainside of the canyon, or flee to the desert.
But how could the people in the cavalry let them go and chase them one after another.
At this time, Ye Fan had entered the village surrounded by people and reached the height of the village.
The sight in front of him surprised him.
What I saw in the canyon was a small oasis with a radius of dozens of miles. The climate was warm and not dry at all. In this big desert, this oasis is very rare, just like a treasure in the desert.
It's just that this place is a bit small, isolated in the desert, and too far from other cities in Xiayang County. Ordinary civilians will not live here. It can't support many people here.
As a result, it was occupied by a group of bandits, and such a good place was wasted.
The merchants, a horse team of nearly 1,500 people outside the canyon, couldn't help but rejoice when they saw the bandits were completely defeated and entered the canyon and took a short rest inside.
There are no sand bandits occupying them, so this canyon oasis is simply a treasure place for them to rest midway.
Of the two hundred or so bandits in the village, not a single one could escape. They were all hunted down by seven or eight martial masters and hundreds of warrior guards and annihilated.
However, no trace of the bandit leader Ghost Face was found in the entire canyon village.
This made Ye Fan and everyone a little confused, wondering where the bandit leader had gone.
The warriors cleaned up the entire sand village and found a large amount of loot. In the cellar of the village, hundreds of boxes of gold and silver, as well as countless jewelry of various colors, were found.
The amount of gold, silver and wealth made the guards and merchants dumbfounded.
These are all caravans that have passed through the desert in recent years, paying filial fare to the bandits, or they are the harvest of bandits.
The warriors were not very interested in these gold and silver jewelry. They only picked some beautiful jewelry. The remaining gold and silver were distributed to the horse team guards who fought desperately to break through the sand village, and as pensions for the families of the dead guards.
What Zhao Zhong, Qin Yuer and the other six warriors are really interested in are the belongings of the two bandit leaders.
A second-order low-grade mysterious knife, a second-order low-grade gold wire inner armor, a dozen yuan stones, and a bottle of elixirs for cultivation were found on Shanmao, the third leader of the sand bandits.
Liusha, the second leader of the sand bandits, has a book of "Second Level Trap Technique", dozens of yuan stones, and a few fragmentary materials for making traps!
"How to divide these?"
Zhao Zhong looked at Ye Fan and asked.
Ye Fan picked up the volume of "Trap Technique", looked through it, and said: "This "Second-Level Trap Technique" and the materials belong to me, and the remaining items will be divided into 50 and 50. You each pick half!"
He plans to study this trap technique carefully, maybe it will come in handy in the future.
The martial lords nodded and had no objections.
Ye Fan played the biggest role in this battle, so he was naturally the first to pick. Besides, if you don't major in "Trap Technique", this "Trap Technique" will not be of much use.
The martial lords divided all these things, which was considered a small gain.
Thousands of people from the cavalry team carefully cleaned up the sand village inside and outside. Almost everything that could be taken away was taken away, and almost nothing of value was left behind.
At this time, several guards who were on guard duty at the height of the sand village shouted loudly: "My lords, there is a man and a beast coming from a distance! They are coming from the direction of the oasis, look!"
Ye Fan was stunned, and he and the other warriors hurriedly came out of the camp and stood on a high rock in the sand village.
Only six or seven miles away, he saw a burly black-robed warrior with a ghost mask on his face, carrying a huge mace, standing on top of a huge golden scorpion. The golden scorpion was more than a foot tall, and a man and a beast were running towards the sand village.
"Ghost face!"
Ye Fan stood with his hands behind his back, his face darkened.
It seems that the leader of the sand bandits, Ghost Face, is a very powerful beast master. The golden scorpion under him is estimated to be at the fifth or sixth level of Beast Master. In addition, the 'Ghost Face' itself is also a cultivation level above the fourth or fifth level of the Martial Master Realm.
The combination of one person and one beast is probably quite powerful, no less powerful than Liusha, the second leader of the bandits.
This made Ye Fan a little wary.
"The leader of the sand bandits, Ghost Face, is finally here!"
"I thought he was afraid of the battle and ran away, but I didn't expect him to dare to come back. Since he came back to seek death, then we will help him!"
"If nine of our Martial Lords fight against him, he will definitely die!"
The martial arts masters in Zhao Zhong were full of fighting spirit, not afraid at all, but excited.
They had already killed two of the three martial master-level bandit leaders in the sand village, and even hundreds of bandits in the entire sand village had been wiped out in one fell swoop.
There is only this last bandit leader left, even if he is quite powerful, he is not fearful. After all, they have a large number of people and a great chance of winning.
"Scorpion King! Ghost Face's mount is actually the Scorpion King! How could it be the pet beast of the bandit leader!"
Zhou Jushang's expression changed drastically, revealing a fearful expression.
"If I had known it was the Scorpion King, I shouldn't have provoked him!"
When the other wealthy businessmen and businessmen saw clearly, their faces were full of fear and extremely regretful.
"Is this scorpion very powerful? From what I see, it's only about the fifth level of the beast master stage. How powerful can it be?"
Zhao Zhong said very strangely.
"What you don't know is that this scorpion is the strongest beast in this desert. It haunts the desert and has killed countless businessmen and guards! It has been running rampant in this desert for more than ten years. This Although the Golden Scorpion is only in the middle stage of the Beast Master, I have heard some Martial Lords say before that this is a top-quality Golden Scorpion. Many Martial Lords even came to the desert to hunt it. Unfortunately, instead of killing it, it died. It has won a lot of martial arts. We always thought it was a wild beast, but we didn't expect that it turned out to be the pet beast mounted by the bandit leader 'Ghost Face'!"
Zhou Jushang looked extremely regretful.
Obviously, if he had known about it in advance, he would have thought carefully about whether to provoke these bandits.
...
After a while, Ghost Face was already riding his mount, and a giant golden scorpion appeared and stopped several hundred feet away from the sand village.
He was carrying a mace, with a golden ghost face, looking at the sand village with a sinking face, and hatred in his eyes.
This sand village has obviously been occupied by the warriors and the cavalry guards, and all the sand bandits have been killed or injured.
The third child, Bobcat, and the second child, Quicksand, were nowhere to be seen. It was unknown whether they were dead or alive.
This made him quite regretful. He went to the oasis to find his pet beast Golden Scorpion, which delayed him for a little while. If he had known that Shazhai would be captured so soon, he should not have allowed Liusha to stay and defend Shazhai.
"You are so brave, you dare to attack my desert village! I will make sure that none of you can walk out of this desert alive!"
Ghost Face stood on top of Golden Scorpion's head and said coldly.
"That's not a small talk. Are you the bandit leader 'Ghost Face'?"
"good!"
"It's useless to be so loud. Bobcat and Quicksand are already dead. Sooner or later you will have to go down to accompany them!"
Qin Yuer immediately responded.
When Ghost Face heard that both Liusha and Shanmao had been killed, he was immediately furious, but he quickly calmed down and looked at everyone with a gloomy sneer.
"Hmph, there have been many martial masters who have given me trouble in this desert over the years, but those who dared to provoke me ended up dead in this desert! You are the same, you will not be able to walk out of this desert alive. Enjoy this last moment, When you leave the oasis, it will be the moment when you give my second and third sons your lives."
He stood on top of Golden Scorpion's head and was not in a hurry to attack the people on the sand village in the canyon.
This is a sand scorpion. It is best to fight in the desert, not on rocks.
He gave a brief gesture to the golden scorpion, and the golden scorpion immediately turned around and ran towards the vast desert outside the canyon.
It takes more than ten days to walk across this vast desert to the nearest small town outside. As long as everyone dares to set foot in the desert, they will die.
He has enough time to kill all the warriors in the cavalry.
"It's over, it's over!"
"This ghost face is indeed extremely cunning! His Scorpion King has been roaming this desert for more than ten years, and no one can fight it in the desert. We are trapped and die in this canyon oasis!"
"What should we do now? Are we just going to stay in this canyon?!"
Zhou Jushang and all the wealthy merchants all looked desperate.
There are more than 2,000 people in their group, and they will run out of water and food in a month at most. Even if they don't go into the desert, they won't be able to survive in this oasis for a month or two, and they will starve to death.
Zhao Zhong looked solemnly and looked towards Ye Fan, "The mind and strength of the bandit leader Gui Mian are far superior to those of Quicksand and Shanmao. What can Brother Ye do to kill this Gui Mian?"
"We have no choice but to fight hard! All of our martial masters take action to hunt down Ghost Face and prevent him from escaping into the depths of the desert! Chase him now!"
Ye Fan shook his head lightly, immediately flew down from the canyon, jumped on a horse, and chased the ghost face outside the canyon.
"Walk--!"
"All the Martial Lords go!"
"The warrior stays, don't go and die! The rest are staying in the sand village."
Everyone shouted and jumped on their horses.
Rumble~~!
Four people, Ye Fan, Mu Bing, three people from Zhao Zhong, and two of Zhou Jushang's subordinates, Wu Zun, escorted them. A group of nine horses raised a cloud of dust and chased towards the desert outside the canyon, in the direction of the bandit leader Ghost Face.
Soon, the bandit leader Gui Mian and Ye Fan and their group were more than ten miles away from the canyon and rushed into the desert.
Ghost Face's mount "Golden Scorpion" is a war beast, not a riding beast.
Riding an animal can easily travel thousands of miles.
The same cannot be said for war pets. Although they can crawl very fast and can run better than war horses, they cannot run for long after all. After running for a long time, the Golden Scorpion will get tired and lie down.
The mounts of the nine Ye Fans are all the most powerful worldly BMWs. Although they are far inferior to war beasts, they are very durable. As long as they have water, they can run hundreds of miles in the desert without any problem.
"Ghost Face! You can't run far. This is already a desert, and you have already taken advantage of it! Let's compete here. Life or death depends on destiny!"
Ye Fan shouted.
"Okay! Let's decide the outcome here and let you die in Youquan!"
The leader of the sand bandits, Ghost Face, suddenly ordered Golden Scorpion to stop, waved his heavy mace, and turned around to face the nine pursuing warriors.
