Chapter 22:
In the evening, when the sun set, Xu Hao woke up.
"You're awake?"
Outside the tent, Peach, who was fiddling with some small accessories, immediately gave Xu Hao a sweet smile when she saw him wake up.
"What are you doing?"
Xu Hao asked out of curiosity when he saw Peach making accessories.
"Um, it's nothing."
"Let's get something to eat. I'm a little hungry.”
As Peach spoke, she took out a few flatbread from her backpack and prepared to roast them before eating.
Xu Hao smiled and took out some jerky and water from his backpack, preparing to have dinner with Peach.
At this moment, a few off-road vehicles were charging at the desert inn with a very fierce attitude. Finally, they stopped in front of the inn.
Seven or eight well-dressed mercenaries got out of the car and rushed into the inn.
Seeing so many people, the inn owner immediately smiled and went up to welcome them.
"Welcome. The true gods bless you.”
"Excuse me, how many rooms do you want to rent?”
A muscular mercenary wearing sunglasses sneered and immediately asked.
"Last night, a Chinese man brought some people with him. Where did they go?”
When the inn owner heard this, he immediately smiled and rubbed his hands.
"Money, money, I can't remember anything without money.”
"Hmm?"
The muscular mercenary grabbed the innkeeper's collar and lifted him up. At the same time, the mercenaries behind him all pulled out their guns.
They were already a day behind Jack and the others. If they wasted any more time, it would be difficult to catch up with them.
Seeing this group of fierce mercenaries, the inn owner trembled.
"I got it, I got it."
"They left before dawn this morning.”
"He went that way?"
"Over in the desert."
The inn owner pointed in a direction.
"Hmph, let's go."
After throwing the innkeeper on the ground, the mercenaries immediately got into the car and chased after Jack and the others.
On the other side of Xu Hao's camp, two off-road vehicles were driving toward the small oasis in the distance.
The two car lights were very dazzling in the dark night.
"No wonder it attracted those horse bandits. With such a strong light, it would be difficult not to attract attention.”
Xu Hao complained softly as he ate.
The two off-road vehicles were Jack's group.
After Jack and the others arrived at the small oasis, they also found a place to set up their tents, and it was not far from Xu Hao and the others.
Xu Hao did not deliberately avoid them. Instead, he chatted with Peach.
Peach felt very relaxed when she chatted with Xu Hao, and Xu Hao could always make her laugh.
Hearing Peach's laughter from time to time, Jack could not help but look over.
"This kid is really getting more and more powerful. Even in the desert, he can still charm that Japanese girl.”
"Do you want to learn from him? Being single for so many years didn't seem good.”
"But I'm his cousin. How can I tell him about this? It felt a little embarrassing.”
As he prepared the food, Jack began to feel conflicted.
Hearing Peach's laughter, Ada and Ilsa couldn't help but look over.
"Hey, Jack, your friend."
Ada nudged Jack with her elbow and said softly.
Jack shrugged and ignored Ada.
Elsa was a little unhappy.
"I met that person who misses Xu Hao very much again.”
"But that person shouldn't be Xu Hao.”
Looking at Peach, who was smiling happily beside Xu Hao, Yiersha hoped that this person was not Xu Hao.
Sensing Ada and Ilsa's gazes, Peach controlled her laughter.
However, Peach also saw Jack.
"Hey, Xu Hao, isn't that uncle over there the one who was with you before?”
"Why is he here?"
Xu Hao did not want to hide too much from Peach.
"We came to the desert because we have to carry out a mission. After tonight, we will meet up with them.”
"Then are we going to follow them?”
Peach asked curiously. If there were so many people traveling together, it would be a lot of fun.
Xu Hao thought for a moment and finally nodded.
"Go, I'll go later. Let's eat first.”
He had to inform Jack and the others about the horse bandits 'attack tonight so that Ada, Elsa, and the others could not be captured.
If Ida and Ilsa weren't captured, they wouldn't have to waste so much time here and could reach Buji Laoqi's base earlier.
