Chapter 726: Falling into Quicksand

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The horse bandits in the desert were true desperadoes. There was no government here, nor was there any law. When someone dies and is buried under the yellow sand, it’s as if they vanished without a trace, their bodies lost forever. They might not be discovered even after thousands of years.

Therefore, the horse bandits were especially fierce and fought with their lives on the line.

The horse bandits surrounded him in three directions. They did not say much and only took the time to shoot a cold arrow from behind in an attempt to bring Wang Wulang down.

Seeing that Wang Wulang easily dodged a few times in a row, the horse bandits also realized that the person in front of them was probably not easy to deal with, so they became even more cautious.

“Big Brothers, 1 don’t have anything to eat, and I’m useless. Why are you chasing after me?” Wang Wulang was really on the brink of tears. Why didn’t these bandits let anyone off?

He originally thought that the horse bandits wanted to rob him of his money. Later on, he thought about it carefully. Although money was also a good thing in the desert, it was actually not very useful. Then, what was there for them to pursue?

Seeing the galloping horse under him and looking at his bulging arms, an absurd but reliable thought surged into his mind.

A memory from his childhood revived—

Did they want to eat people?!

That’s right, there was nothing in the desert. Whether it was humans or animals, if they were discovered by the people here, they would probably become food.

It was fine if they encountered ordinary people. At most, they would rob them of their wealth. Those who were unlucky would be raped. However, when they encountered these people, their bones would probably be burned to ashes and eaten!

Thinking of this, Wang Wulang became even more desperate. He pulled out the sword at his waist and hit the horse’s butt.

The horse let out a shrill cry and swayed its body, wanting to throw Wang Wulang off.

During these days in the desert, the horse hardly had any water and, although it was fed hay, its body wasn’t as robust as before. Now, while running at full speed, it was putting all its strength into it. There was no way to muster enough energy to shake off Wang Wulang. It could only hold its breath and keep on running.

Wang Wulang was also in a bad mood. He instantly thought of Little Sister Ah Yu’s lamb. Although Little Lamb couldn’t be ridden by others, its brats had good tempers. Even if they couldn’t compare to their father, ordinary second-grade horses couldn’t compare to their speed.

If he was riding a sheep, he might not be so passive.

“Stop!” Seeing that Wang Wulang was still unwilling to admit defeat and had run deeper into the desert, the horse bandit’s face revealed fear.

Someone quickly said to the person beside him, “Third-in-charge, that’s a death zone. We can’t follow over anymore.”

“I’m afraid this kid has lost his sense of propriety from our pursuit.”

“Forget it, forget it. Let’s go back. We can’t let our brothers die here.”

“Pick up the arrows that were shot out on the way back. We can’t lose these treasures.”

“Sigh, what a pity for that good horse. If we could snatch it and give it to the Chief, we would definitely be able to make a great contribution.”

As they spoke, they really pulled their horses back and turned around. Wang Wulang still did not believe them. Only after running for a while and not hearing the sound of pursuit, did he dare to turn around.

With a look, he realized that the horse bandits had disappeared, leaving only a vast expanse of yellow sand around him.

As he was thinking, he suddenly heard the horse scream again.

Wang Wulang looked down and saw that the horse’s limbs had sunk into the sand. The sand was very strange and moved like flowing water.

“Oh no, it’s quicksand!” Wang Wulang held his breath and looked around. He realized that such a scene was everywhere, and there was almost no place to step.

If he wanted to escape, he only needed to use his movement technique to step on the horse’s head and fly out of this area.

The horse seemed to sense something and also looked up at Wang Wulang, its eyes actually filled with hot tears.

Wang Wulang gritted his teeth. “Brother Horse, although you wanted to shake me off just now, I didn’t eat you previously, and you’re loyal enough. I won’t abandon you. If this is what my life should be like, I’ll accept it. Who asked me to be stupid? I’m not as smart as Grandma or Sister, but I can’t lose this bit of loyalty.”

He wiped his tears and wrapped the reins around the horse’s abdomen. Then, he jumped onto the sand not far away. The sand there was still stable for the time being, but the situation was not optimistic.

By the time he got off the horse, the quicksand had already drowned the horse to its abdomen. Wang Wulang grabbed the horse’s reins with all his might, wanting to pull it out. However, as he pulled, the horse sank deeper and deeper, and a quicksand-like vortex appeared under his feet.

The horse wailed, and Wang Wulang’s face turned red. Because of the force, he sank faster than the horse.

In the end, the sand completely drowned the horses and man. When the wind blew, the quicksand vortexes disappeared one after another. Everything around them disappeared, and no one knew what had happened here..
