Chapter 243 Sand Bandits

Chapter 243 Sand Bandits

"How? Are you sure?"

Somewhere in the desert, three camels were on a slope, and the riders were all wrapped in sackcloth, obviously living in the desert for a long time.

"It's just a caravan of five trucks, just rush up." The shortest one muttered, his immature voice was obviously young.

"Don't let your guard down at any time, because you can't predict where the crisis will come from!" The man on the other side cast a glance and said seriously, then immediately put his fingers in his mouth, blew his drum, and let out a long whistle .

"Anyone can tell the truth." The young man turned his head away and muttered, but he didn't dare to refute.

The burly man riding on the camel in the middle sighed, reached out and patted the boy's head, and suddenly the stroking turned into a slap, causing the boy to nod and poke his chest.

"You don't listen to seniors, something will happen sooner or later, kid." The burly man laughed boldly.

"I'm not a brat anymore." The boy stared angrily, rubbing his head and grinning.

"Hahaha! In my eyes, you will always be a brat." The burly man laughed louder when he heard this.

At this moment, an eagle fluttered over, flapped its wings, and landed on the raised arm of another man. His arm was wrapped with the skin of a desert lizard, which was so hard that even the sharp eagle claws could not pierce it. wear.

"It's confirmed, it's the caravan we discovered earlier." The man said in a serious tone.

"Then go and intercept it!" Before the person who made the decision could open his mouth, the boy was eager to try.

"I should say that, brat!" The burly man laughed and cursed, then raised his hand and shouted: "Then go!"

As soon as the words fell, he took the lead, suddenly whipped the camel, and then went straight out.

The other two hurriedly followed, heading for the caravan in the distance.

At this moment, the caravan was still on their way with the same sleepy expression as before, without even noticing that the shadow of danger had quietly enveloped them.

Xia Shu didn't chew Bingliang Pills and refine chakra as usual. This was because his Bingliang Pills were running low and had to be used sparingly. After all, nothing is absolute. Pills might be able to play a role.

At noon, he suddenly frowned, feeling vaguely being spied on, he kept silent, but looked up at the sky according to the feeling, and saw a goshawk flying across the sky.

Because manipulating flying birds to investigate is Shan Zhongfeng's forte, so he immediately raised his guard.

Taming wild beasts for their own use is a method that ordinary people can master, so maybe it is not a ninja who came, but it is his habit to prepare for the worst, because only in this way can he control the situation to the maximum extent.

"Captain, look at that eagle in the sky, it seems to be following us all the time." Xia Shu called the guard captain and reminded him.

"Eagle?" The guard captain's dark face was startled, he looked up at the sky, suddenly his face changed, and then he shouted: "The guards are ready, there are sand bandits watching us!"

The thirty or so members of the caravan moved immediately, either hiding or holding up weapons, obviously intending to resist to the end.

"Sand bandits?" Xia Shu glanced at the crowd, and the worker with an injured arm saw him puzzled, and explained: "Sand bandits have been happening in the desert in recent years, robbing passing caravan pedestrians, and the methods are extremely cruel. None left alive!"

While talking here, there was a sudden exclamation from the other side.

"Look over there!"

Xia Shu turned his head to look, and then followed the direction pointed by the guard, and saw a cloud of smoke and dust coming from a distance, why the target was still obvious.

"Looking at this puff of smoke, it seems that there are only a few people." The captain of the guard frowned, with doubts and even more fear.

Fewer people does not necessarily mean less danger, especially since the opponent has goshawks to scout, it is impossible to know the situation of the caravan, but the opponent still attacks, then...

Xia Shu also thought of this, or he could almost be sure that it was the ninjas who attacked, not the so-called Sand Bandits.

"The enemy is coming, prepare to meet the enemy!"

After a while, the smoke gradually approached, and the three cavalry were faintly visible.

three?

This number made Xia Shu immediately think of the ninja team, and then thought of Sand Yin. The Kingdom of the Wind is the basic board of Sand Yin. It is absolutely impossible to let other ninjas come here unscrupulously, so...

Sand Hidden was a participant in the Second Ninja World War, and also a Ninja Village that was defeated in the war. The daimyo of the Kaze Country has always been very subtle towards Sand Hidden Village. Sand Yin has completely embarked on the elite mode.

And the third Kazekage is hailed as the strongest Kazekage, from a certain point of view, it also means that he does not have the ability to do well in the economy like the future four generations of Kazekage.

Therefore, if the analysis is based on the situation of Sand Hidden Village, the probability of Sand Shinobi turning into sand bandits and plundering caravans passing through the border is really not small!

Xia Shu thought of a lot in an instant, and even thought about whether this discovery would bring him some benefits. After all, if this matter were exposed, it would definitely damage the reputation of Sha Yin Village, and this also meant that Ren Cun Lai The task of survival will be reduced even more, and it will not even be able to sustain it!

However, no matter how to operate in the future, the current situation must be passed first.

The three knights attacked recklessly. As soon as they appeared, Kunai and shuriken shot out. Apart from dressing up, they didn't hide their ninja identity at all.

The unexpected attack caused the caravan to lose three people in an instant, or fell down screaming, or fell to the ground without knowing whether they were alive or dead.

"Follow me!" The captain of the guard hadn't realized the situation yet, shouted loudly, drew his sword and rushed towards the enemy.

"Let me come!" Among the enemies, the short one laughed and rushed over.

Xia Shu, who was following the charge, only glanced at the opponent, then looked away. There were three enemies in total, and this one was obviously the weakest threat to him, so his target would not be him.

The enemy seemed to intend to let the short man see the blood, so he didn't continue to throw kunai and shuriken, and this made Xia Shu follow several guards and rush to their side.

"Hmph!" The burly enemy snorted coldly, and wanted to kill him casually when he drew out his kunai.

However, the short boy had already regarded these guards as prey, and quickly shouted: "It's mine, let me come!"

There was excitement and cruelty in the boy's voice, and he came towards this side before he finished speaking.

Seeing that the enemy's eyes were drawn to him, Xia Shu suddenly moved, his figure flashed, and he had pulled out his sword, aiming at the back of the burly enemy.
