1560 Chapter 1560-growing
....
By the time Gu Xin found the bodies of leader mo and the others, the temperature in the desert had already dropped.
Everyone lit a torch and gathered the bodies of the hundred people. They fixed them on wooden boards one by one and dragged them with camels to meet up with Peng ze and the others.
No one made a sound throughout the entire process. Everyone felt very uncomfortable, and they had to move quickly to prevent the people of the cloud Sea tribe from catching up.
After about four hours, their team met with Pengze and Xue Qianyu.
Lu Zheng and Peng ze had learned how to survive in the desert from the most experienced seventh Princess of the cloud Sea tribe, so it was not difficult for Lu Zheng to find them with Peng ze’s guidance.
This was a deserted city with broken walls and no one lived in it. Fortunately, it could withstand the wind and sand after a little rest.
When Gu Xin and the rest returned, the heavily injured soldiers and bandits from quicksand country helped each other up to welcome them. The people lying on the wooden boards were all familiar faces and they all had heavy hearts.
Gu Xin stood out. I’ll give all the shakos a chance now. If you want to leave, feel free to do so. I won’t force you. If you want to stay, I, Princess Xinxin of quicksand country, promise you that if you follow me, I will never leave you behind. I’ll do my best to let everyone live a peaceful life, even if the process is a little difficult and hard. Even if the process could take a year or a few years. “Even if there will be sacrifices in the process, the sacrifices may be me or all of you. However, I can guarantee that as long as I, Gu Xin, am here, you will have a day of food to eat. Follow me, and I guarantee that you’ll have enough to eat and wear. Follow me, and I will never let you become my slaves! So, you can make your choice now.”
Lu Zheng and the rest looked at Gu Xin. They had never thought that little Xinxin would grow so much in just a few months.
Little Xinxin, who had always been well protected by her family, could stand in front of a group of men and say, ” I’ll take care of you and work hard to lead a good life for you.
Their hearts also ached. Who knew how much suffering little Xinxin had gone through before?
None of the shakos chose to leave. They all chose to follow Gu Xin.
To be honest, it wasn’t like they hadn’t seen their brothers die in the Shakko gang before, but they had never seen anyone like Princess Xinxin, who would risk her life to bring back an intact corpse.
The desert was very cruel. If one died, they would be buried under the yellow soil. Perhaps they could leave an intact corpse, but it was more likely that they would be eaten by wild beasts, leaving behind only a skeleton.
Everyone was afraid of death, but it had to be a worthy death.
Although they were all ordinary people, they all hoped that after they died, someone would remember them so that they would not have come to this world in vain.
They believed that it was possible for them to follow Princess Xinxin.
No one left, so Gu Xin asked second white and the others to settle them down. Although they had been separated for a few months, she was still able to get second white and the others to help her.
Second white and the rest had also learned some common language and could speak with the people here.
It was very cold in the desert at night, so they could only light up a fire to keep themselves warm. Including Gu Xin, everyone who was not injured went out to look for burning things.
After doing all this, another two hours pa.s.sed.
