Chapter 789: Forced (Part 1)
“You are a worker who mined Sand Gold?” Ye Yu Xi looked at Ma Luo.
Ma Luo sat there with his head down, not saying a word.
Bai Jin Yi looked at Ma Luo’s back for a while before suddenly standing up, “Everyone’s done, right? Let’s go to the oasis to the west for a look, we should find something there.”
Ye Yu Xi looked at Bai Jin Yi and the latter had a mysterious smile on his face.
Ma Luo’s lowered eyes had a strange look. He wanted to say something, but he swallowed it down in the end.
After traveling for half a day, they stopped to rest again.
Ye Yu Xi didn’t bind Ma Luo up during this time and Ma Luo obediently followed them, not trying to run away.
“Here.” The fatty gave a piece of roasted meat to Ma Luo and sat down beside him.
“Brother, you don’t seem like a bad person, why did you become a bandit?” The fatty moved closer to Ma Luo.
“I was forced.” Ma Luo spat out these three words before lowering his head to eat the roasted meat.
“Eat slower, there’s more meat.” The fatty watched Ma Luo swallowing the meat. Only by starving for several days could he eat like this.
“Brother is there trouble? You can talk to us. Although we aren’t any good people, we still would help normally.” The fatty patted Ma Luo’s shoulder.
“No need.” Ma Luo rejected the fatty’s goodwill.
“Fatty, we’re setting off.” Ye Yu Xi’s soft voice rang out.
……
Near the desert oasis.
“Big brother, Ma Luo isn’t back, what do we do?” A man sat on the ground with a grim look.
“Wait and see, Ma Luo is a good kid……” The person called big brother also looked a bit grim.
Around them…..were several other men. Although they were men, they all looked thin and it seemed like it had been a long time since they had had their fill.
“Big brother, the people in the village are waiting for us, we…….”
“Everyone eat quickly. There’s still time, let’s take another trip.” The big brother took out his lunch from his chest.
The other men did the same thing.
In each person’s hand was a mantou. Some were covered in sand and some had mold growing on it, but these men seemed like they couldn’t see it and they all swallowed them down.
……
The desert was still silent as always.
In the words of the fatty, even birds wouldn’t shit here.
As night covered the sky.
The fatty and Hei Feng Tian Zong started a campfire to cook water and food.
“You……Are you planning to go to the oasis to the west?” Ma Luo who had silent the entire time finally spoke.
“Un, we haven’t had a good rest in several days, so we’re going there to rest.” Ye Yu Xi looked up and said.
“Don’t go there, there is no one and nothing there.” Ma Luo said without any expression.
The others were silent as they looked at the strange Ma Luo.
Ye Yu Xi’s lips curled into an elegant smile as her beautiful eyes looked at Ma Luo, “How do you know? Have you gone there?”
“No, I’ve heard other people say this. Anyway, don’t go there.” Ma Luo’s eyes dimmed a bit. After warning Ye Yu Xi, he sat to the side and didn’t say anything else.
“Hei, hei, brother, you don’t understand my boss. If you say this, she will definitely go.” The fatty laughed.
Although the fatty had cut Ma Luo before, the two were fighting each other then and didn’t know right or wrong. Not to mention that the fatty had already used a pill to heal Ma Luo.
“If you go, you will definitely regret it.” Ma Luo’s voice sunk and after two seconds, “You are good people, go and do your own things.”
“Based on your tone, something happened at the oasis?” Ye Yu Xi’s lips curled into a smile.
