A knife in love

Chapter 3412

When everyone was running forward, Li Qiufeng stood by the side of the road, his eyes fixed on the big tree blocked by seven or eight trees.Murong Danyan walked up to him, saw five or six bloodstains on his face by the sand, stones and dead branches, and his clothes were covered with dust, his heart ached, he hurriedly reached out to shake off the dust on his clothes, and then He took out a cloth towel from his arms and carefully wiped away the blood and sand on his face.Li Qiufeng felt very embarrassed in his heart, but he couldn't refuse Murong Danyan's kindness, so he stood stiffly on the spot, staring straight at the big tree hanging on the hillside, not daring to turn his head to look at Murong Danyan at all. .

After several carriages passed by, only Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan were left on the mountain road.Only then did Li Qiufeng heave a sigh of relief, and was about to turn his head to greet Murong Danyan to leave together, when he heard a loud "click", but it was the one that could not withstand the big trees rolling down from the top of the slope. The oppression of the big tree unexpectedly rolled down to the bottom of the valley together with the big tree.Li Qiufeng turned pale with shock, turned his head and urged Murong Danyan to leave quickly.Murong Danyan was also taken aback, and ran forward along the rough road together with Li Qiufeng.The two managed to run seven or eight feet, only to hear a loud "bang", and the big tree pushed seven or eight trees down onto the road, immediately blocking the road at the bottom of the valley.The tree trunk and branches hit the ground, creating a big hole, causing a large cloud of dust to scatter in all directions, and the momentum was really astonishing.

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan felt lucky when they saw this situation.Ye Fengchun heard the loud noise and hurried back to check the situation. He was relieved to see that Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan were safe.The three of them stood for a while, watching the dust gradually dissipate, and then walked forward side by side.Ye Fengchun said as he walked: "It's winter right now, and there are many dead trees on the mountain, some of which are hundreds of years old and cannot withstand the cold wind. It's not unusual. Fortunately, Uncle Li saw the opportunity quickly and found a way to block the big tree, otherwise the broken tree will fall down, and it will definitely be a catastrophe full of flesh and blood."

Li Qiufeng saw that there were many big trees on both sides of the hillside. The cold wind blew by, the branches rustled, and some dead branches were blown off by the wind from time to time. It is full of weeds, as if no one has ever walked around."

Ye Fengchun nodded, and said: "The land here is barren, with strong winds blowing all year round, neither farming nor fishing, so the population is small, so few people come here. There are many Hanshan fishing villages in Fusang Country. Uncle Li and Miss Mu are going to The Hanshan fishing village is not far from the Daxueshan Mountain, and every year after August, they have to wear cotton-padded clothes, which really deserves the word 'cold'."

The three chatted and chatted, and soon caught up with the group.Everyone just narrowly escaped death, everyone was frightened and uneasy, wishing to leave this valley immediately, so their feet moved a lot faster.By the evening, the crowd had walked for more than twenty miles, and finally walked out of the valley, and came to the bank of a dry river valley.A Songhe Tower employee who was exploring the way first stood on the sandy beach. When he saw the crowd arriving, he rushed forward to greet Ye Fengchun, and said to Ye Fengchun, "I have seen the big shopkeeper. Go forward twelve or three miles. He was about to enter a big mountain again, and the villain was worried that he would miss the place, so he asked Peng Jin to continue to explore the way, and stay here to wait for the shopkeeper. Whether he will camp here tonight is up to the shopkeeper."

Ye Fengchun turned his head and looked around. In the twilight, there were endless mountains and fields everywhere. Only where everyone was standing was a flat dry river beach.He thought for a moment, then turned his head and said to Li Qiufeng: "Today we have walked more than ten miles, and everyone is exhausted. If we continue to move forward, we will enter the valley again and find a flat place to rest. It’s not easy. Why don’t you just rest on this river beach tonight, and it’s not too late to start tomorrow morning.”

Li Qiufeng had no objection, he just asked Ye Fengchun to make his own decision.Ye Fengchun summoned his staff to one place and asked them to split up.All the men agreed, and left in a hurry. Some went to summon Fusang women to bury pots and make rice, some carried rice, noodles and dried meat in the carriage, and some searched around to prevent any beasts from hiding.When Murong Danyan saw Ye Fengchun's order, all the staff split up and did not mess up at all, so he also admired Ye Fengchun in his heart.

After dinner, everyone rested on the river beach.At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the folks of Songhe Tower lit seven or eight piles of fire, and formed a circle with many torches, asking the people of Fusang to rest beside the fire, and no one was allowed to leave the circle of torches.The people of Fusang ran for a day, and they were terribly frightened in the valley before. They were exhausted at this time, so they squeezed to the side of the fire not long after, only to hear snoring everywhere, and all the people of Fusang fell into a deep sleep .

Li Qiufeng, Murong Danyan, and Ye Fengchun sat around a small fire, about four or five zhang away from the resting place of Fusang people.The three chatted for a while, Ye Fengchun was going to check the situation nearby, and said goodbye to Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan.After Ye Fengchun left, Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan each leaned on a big rock, chatted a few gossips, and fell into a deep sleep.

At midnight, people in Fusang suddenly heard clamor.Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan woke up suddenly, with the embers of the fire and the light of the torches, they saw the people running and jumping around, thinking that there was an enemy surprise attack, they were shocked, each drew their swords, and rushed to fight the enemy.At this time Ye Fengchun ran up to the two of them and said out of breath: "Li, Mr. Li, Miss Mu, don't, don't panic. A snake, a snake squeezed into the crowd, scaring the Fusang people to run around. There is nothing big or big. hinder……"

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan felt relieved after hearing Ye Fengchun's words, and put their swords back into their sheaths.Ye Fengchun gasped for a few breaths, and then continued, "There's just one thing I really can't figure out. It's the cold winter right now, so there shouldn't be any big snakes around, but this snake swaggered into the crowd , it’s quite strange. Fortunately, no Fusang people were bitten, otherwise we would not have any medicine that can detoxify the snake, and things would be a little tricky.”

As soon as Ye Fengchun finished speaking, Murong Danyan rushed to say: "Mr. Ye is right. In the middle of winter, snakes hide and sleep in the soil. How could they come out of the ground? I'm afraid there is something weird here!"

While talking, Murong Danyan turned to look at Li Qiufeng.Li Qiufeng gave a wry smile, shook his head and said, "I don't know why the big snake appeared at this time. Maybe it was because we lit a big fire on the river beach, which heated up the frozen ground, and the big snake hiding in the soil was caught by fire." The flames woke up, maybe it just got out."
