Chapter 121 The lady’s beauty can only be appreciated by himself

When Jingshu opened her eyes, it was already bright and Li Ling was no longer beside her, leaving only his robe folded like a pillow under her head.

Jingshu stood up and called Ziyun twice, but she was nowhere to be found.

She put on her clothes, tidied up after herself, left the house, and saw everyone gathering around an old man.

The old man kept talking with a bluffing face: "This past year, the Gobi desert has been haunted by sand ghosts. These sand ghosts specialize in eating living people, and those who enter never return.

Ten days ago, a caravan of more than 50 people from the Gaoshan Kingdom entered. Fortunately, one person ran back alive. He was also frightened and was half stupid. He said that their caravan encountered those group of sand ghosts.

, all the people traveling with him were eaten by those sand ghosts, and only he was swept away by a sandstorm while escaping, and he was lucky enough to escape."

Zhou Jin on the side smiled and said: "How can there be such a powerful thing in the world? Could it be that Shakou is just pretending to be a fool, just to rob passers-by of their money?"

The post officer said with a bluffing face: "The general doesn't know, these sand ghosts are really not human. According to the person who was lucky enough to come back alive, he saw with his own eyes that the sand ghosts were all over one foot tall, with hairy heads and hairy faces.

, has a green face and fangs, and is covered with vine armor, so it is invulnerable.

Five hundred years ago, this land was originally a small country called Zhuya. In this country, everyone from the nobles to the common people were good at witchcraft. It is said that the former General Qi Jiguang was ordered to lead troops to destroy this country.

great wizard

Before the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, witchcraft was planted in the desert. Now these sand ghosts are the poison planted by the great wizard. So, this group of things that are neither human nor beast are just a group of things that cannot be beaten to death or destroyed.

Lost monsters and ghosts.”

The post officer sighed and said: "In the past year, the number of people who have been eaten alive by these sand ghosts has been as many as eight hundred, if not one thousand. Oh, it's amazing, it's amazing. I advise the generals not to go deep into danger."

That’s good.”

Liang Jin said: "Since this sand ghost is causing mischief, didn't the government send troops to encircle and suppress it?"

The post officer replied: "We also sent soldiers riding camels and horses to catch them, but these sand ghosts are very powerful. It is said that they can run like leopards and can even fly with the help of sand dust."

He shook his head and said: "Not only did the soldiers sent by the government fail to capture a single sand ghost, but they all became their prey. Now, no one dares to take risks anymore."

Back in the house, Jing Shu saw Li Ling frowning and said with a smile: "What's wrong? Are you even scared by the sand ghost mentioned by the post officer?"

Li Ling raised his eyes and looked at his wife and said, "I'm not afraid, I'm just worried about you."

As he spoke, he scratched the tip of his little wife's nose with his finger: "I didn't expect you to be quite courageous. After hearing such a terrifying thing, not only were you not afraid, you could also laugh."

Jingshu smiled and said: "I have such a powerful husband to protect me, so naturally I am not afraid."

Although he knew that his wife was just flattering him casually, Li Ling was still very pleased with her. He lowered his head and kissed his wife on the forehead.

Jingshu pushed him and said angrily, "I haven't washed my hair in two days."

After leaving Xiaochun City, we had to sleep in the open air, and there was nowhere to take a bath. Even the inn where we stayed last night lacked water because it was next to the Gobi Desert. It was difficult to get water here, and there was no extra water for bathing.

Li Ling smiled and said, "Even if you don't take a bath, you still smell good."

It was rare for a straight husband to say a word of love, so Jingshu quickly responded with a kiss as a reward.

The two of them were sitting here, Ziyun lowered his head and came in and replied: "Master, General Zhou and General Liang are waiting for you outside. They said they have something to say back."

Li Ling agreed and said to Jing Shu: "The Yi Cheng's words alone are not credible. I just ordered them to go outside to inquire about the sand ghost."

He looked at his wife gently: "Just wait for me in the house. I will come back after discussing it with them."

After Li Ling left, Jing Shu remembered that the travel notes Liu Yunzhi gave her seemed to have recorded the customs here.

Zhou Jin, Liang Jin and other close adjutants went out to inquire about the situation of You Guan and Sand Ghost, and they were reporting back to Li Ling.

Zhou Jin said: "Cousin, what the Yi Cheng said is indeed true. This past year, the Gobi desert has been haunted by sand ghosts. What everyone said is the same as what the Yi Cheng said."

Li Ling looked at everyone and asked, "What do you think?"

Liang Jin replied: "Since the rumors about the sand ghost are true and the general has his wife with him, I think it is better not to take any risks."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Dahai yelled: "There are no monsters or monsters in the world. Your kid is usually fearless. How come you suddenly become a mother-in-law?"

Being robbed by Hu Dahai, Liang Jin quickly lowered his head.

Hu Dahai patted Liang Jin on the shoulder carelessly: "What's there to be afraid of? I think those people are just scaring themselves."

As he said that, he glanced at Liang Jin's face and shouted in surprise: "Oh! Brother, what's wrong with you? Why is your face still red?"

He laughed loudly: "Why do you suddenly look like a girl?"

Li Ling stopped Hu Dahai and said, "We are talking about business. Stop making nonsense."

Hu Dahai quickly shut up.

Zhou Jin continued: "General Liang is right. It is indeed not advisable for my cousin to take his cousin with him. It's just that we have errands to attend to. This is the only way to Nanjun, but we can't do it without walking."

Li Ling replied: "It's true that we can't leave, but right now, we don't know what these people are. If they are really invulnerable and can't be beaten to death, as they say, wouldn't we be in danger?"

.”

He has a lovely wife, so he naturally has a lot to worry about.

"Husband, don't worry."

As soon as Li Ling finished speaking, Jingshu slowly walked in from outside.

When Li Ling saw his wife coming, he quickly stood up and went to the door. He blocked her in front of her and said, "What are you doing here?"

Along the way, as long as she got out of the car, Li Ling would either wrap up his wife tightly or send the soldiers away far away.

In the heart of a grown man like Li Ling, he can only appreciate his wife's beauty. Any man who takes a look at her will make him feel uncomfortable.

Jingshu naturally knew what he was thinking, and did not go inside anymore, but stood at the door and said: "I have seen relevant records about this area in books. These sand ghosts are just the people of the former Zhu Yaguo, not anything else."

Demons. Because Zhu Yaguo is a descendant of the Dayue clan, they are taller than normal people. As for their strange appearance, it should be caused by living in the desert for a long time and the harsh environment."

"It shows that they are not the legendary ghosts, but also humans."

Li Ling never moved away. After listening to his wife's words, he nodded towards her: "I understand, you can go back first."

When his wife turned around and disappeared, Li Ling turned back from the door. Seeing Hu Dahai stretching his neck and looking out, Li Ling rolled his eyes at him and said coldly: "What are you looking at?"

Hu Dahai still stretched his neck and looked out, and replied: "How come Madam Sister-in-law left without coming in?"

Li Ling looked at him with even colder eyes.

Zhou Jin, who was sitting aside, quickly pulled Hu Dahai's lapel: "Don't look at it and let's talk about business."

Only then did Hu Dahai turn his eyes back, but he heard Li Ling, who was standing above him, say in a cold voice: "This post house is really crude. I saw that the mud on the roofs of many houses has fallen off."

As he said that, he looked at Hu Dahai: "You will go out and repair the roofs of all the houses again."

Hu Dahai stared at his eyes as big as copper bells and hesitated: "General, how can I repair a house?"

Li Ling turned a deaf ear and said, "We continued talking about the Gobi."

Zhou Jin replied: "If it is true as Madam-in-law said, those monsters are also human beings, then there must be a way to destroy them."

Without waiting for Li Ling's reply, Hu Dahai still had no memory and said: "It's unbelievable that Madam is not only beautiful, but she also knows so many things that we men don't know."

Li Ling's face darkened again, and he directly ordered Hu Dahai: "Go out and repair the house with Niba right now."
