Senior brother, how can you fall for such a beautiful junior brother!

Lian Li snorted twice. Of course, he was a little bit unconvinced. He was not worried that Yun Huizhou would not let him rest for an hour and a half, but he was afraid that Yun Huizhou would sacrifice his rest time so that he could rest more.

Although the two were inseparable during this period, Yun Huizhou, who had better martial arts skills, always had to bear more. When taking turns to keep watch, Yun Huizhou always kept watch in the second half of the night, so he could control the time they set out in the morning.

If he chose to leave later, Lian Li, who was guarding the second half of the night, could sleep more.

Therefore, Yun Huizhou's night watch time was longer than Lian Li's.

Lian Li can sleep for at least three hours a day, while Yun Huizhou can basically only sleep for two to two and a half hours.

Moreover, he couldn't get a good sleep during the day because of the killer's presence.

You can only lie down on the camel for a while or close your eyes to rest.

Several times when he was catching up on his sleep on the camel, the killer appeared.

Anyone who has tried to catch up on sleep during the day should know that sometimes you just lie down and close your eyes to rest, but within a few seconds your eyes are closed and your thoughts start to wander.

At times like this, people usually sleep very deeply. Even if they only sleep for twenty minutes, they will feel refreshed after waking up.

When the killer hadn't come, Lian Li would definitely not call Yun Huizhou if he saw him catching up on his sleep.

But once the killer comes, he will call Yun Huizhou first.

Yun Huizhou, who was catching up on sleep, had to clear his mind immediately when he woke up, otherwise he would go to deal with the killers in a daze, and if he was not careful, the two of them would not be able to get out of the desert.

It was already an hour into the night when Yun Huizhou finished his rest. The two ate something but were afraid to eat their fill.

After confirming that they were in the best condition they could achieve at this stage, the two walked up to the camels that had accompanied them all the way.

"To be honest, we don't know if we can come back safely this time. These camels followed us, and I'm afraid that only a few of them will make it to the border town alive." Lian Li said, touching the head of one of the camels.

Lian Li actually likes animals and can be considered a caring person in the modern world.

Because he is sick and cannot keep a pet, he keeps a pet online.

His family was actually quite well off, and even though he had been receiving medical treatment, they were not in dire straits.

So when he was alive in his previous life, he raised a little penguin.

Before, when they were in the desert, they needed to rely on camels to survive. So even though he knew that the camels would be in danger if they followed them, he did not have the chastity to disband the camel caravan.

But now that they were out of the desert, they were no longer so dependent on camels for survival, and a dozen camels were indeed a bit too big to be useful for hiding their tracks, so he inevitably felt compassion.

These camels can survive, there's no need to follow them to die, right?

He and Yun Huizhou might not necessarily die, but the same could not be said for these camels, after all, swords and knives have no mercy.

After releasing them, it doesn't matter whether they are willing to stay in the desert or know the way and run back to their original owners.

There were nose sticks on the camels' noses. Lian Li walked over and touched them gently, then took out the nose sticks of the camels that he was going to let go.

It will definitely hurt in the middle of the process, and it may even bleed. The camel will naturally not let him do it obediently if it feels pain.

However, whether it was him or Yun Huizhou, it was still easy to suppress a camel.

After the nose sticks were removed, the camels were naturally not as obedient as before, but perhaps because they had been raised by humans for a long time and it was not their estrus season, the camels did not make any other moves.

But this is a stubborn animal after all. If it doesn't go back to its original owner after the nose stick is taken away, then these ten or so of them can survive together.

Lian Li certainly wasn't prepared to let them all go, as they still had some distance to go before returning to the border town.

In order to save energy to deal with those killers, he naturally needed to leave two camels for transportation.

The camel runs quite fast and has great endurance. Although the two of them wanted to let the camel go, they still put their own safety first.

So they left behind the two strongest camels to serve as their guide.

After the nose sticks of the camels that were about to be released were taken off, there was naturally some commotion among the camel herd.

Animals as large as camels, whether wild or domestic, are always smarter.

After the nose stick is removed, they can also realize that the thing that restrains them is gone.

Yun Huizhou took a knife and drove them away, driving them towards the desert.

Some camels lingered and refused to move, and Yun Huizhou showed no mercy, hitting them directly on their butts with the scabbarded knife.

Yun Huizhou did not use his internal force, but he did not hold back. His intention was to hurt them and make them leave.

After being busy for nearly half an hour, some camels were still reluctant to leave.

These camels were reluctant to leave, and some other camels that were about to leave stopped and stood a hundred meters away.

Seeing this situation, Lian Li was speechless, and Yun Huizhou's mouth twitched as well.

He admitted that some of these camels were quite intelligent, but precisely because of their intelligence, he was unwilling to let these camels face the killers and die when it was unnecessary.

But he really didn't expect that this somewhat spiritual camel would be so receptive to its master.

Yun Huizhou and Lian Li looked at each other in bewilderment. They had thought of everything, but they never expected that these camels would not leave.

Especially since they had already taken off the nose sticks and reins that bound them.

Lian Li estimated the time and said, "Let's try to catch up a little longer. If they really don't want to leave, we can just ride the two camels left behind. I don't believe they will keep following us."

Yun Huizhou nodded and drove the camel again. This time he pulled out his knife.

He thought that camels had thick skin and flesh, and if he hit them with a scabbard, they might not feel much pain.

But if they bleed, they will definitely know to run away, so he would make a small cut on the camel and let it bleed a little more symbolically, letting them know that if they don't leave, they will bleed, and they will not stick around.

Just when Yun Huizhou was about to take action, he found that the camel herd was getting agitated again. He was delighted. Were they suddenly sensible?

Unless it was necessary, he didn't want to make these camels bleed, after all, blood would attract ferocious beasts.

The desert looks desolate, but there are actually quite a lot of animals living there, including ferocious beasts.

Although wild animals probably wouldn't dare to provoke such a large group of camels, the harsh desert environment would be very troublesome for animals and getting injured would be a big problem.
