Chapter 14 Entering the Mountains, Entering the City

As soon as you enter the mountain forest, the luxuriant bushes block the scorching sun and isolate the noise of the world, as if you have entered another quiet world.

There is only the rustling of the leaves, and the gentle breeze with water vapor swirls around people, and the chirping birds seem to be intoxicated by this moment of refreshment, and keep silent.

Wen Yu walked in the front, followed by Boss Xu, the contrast between the two was obvious.

The girl is not one point shorter than her peers, and she can surpass the waist and abdomen of Boss Xu
Even Xu's second son, who is tall and tall, is a head shorter than Xu's eldest son, standing together becomes extremely fragile.

This time when they went into the mountains to find water, apart from Wen Yu and Xu's brothers, there was also Chen Datie, who kept talking about going into the mountains to hunt Cui Xing, and he was not too harsh, forming a five-member team.

After a good night's sleep, Wen Yu felt a lot more relaxed in her body, and she only felt a little stagnant when she moved. After this event, she would probably be back to normal later today.

Sure enough, only by fighting poison with poison can he recover faster.

It is also thanks to the fact that this body has been baptized with spiritual energy.

The location of the spring is relatively hidden. After turning left and right, the overlapping tree trunks disappear, and the eyes suddenly open up.

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, and the gurgling stream slides over the light blue strange rocks, making a tinkling sound.

The water flow is not small, and it winds down the river without knowing where to go.

Seeing this beautiful scenery, the group of five didn't have much thought of admiring it. Xu Laoer was overjoyed, and a big smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Even Chen Datie, who was serious and unsmiling, heaved a sigh of relief.

Although they believed what Wen Yu said about finding the water source, they were still not at ease. It was not until this time that they really saw this lovely stream that they were completely relieved.

He also admired Wen Yu's ability.

Sure enough, he is a child of a fairy, and he knows where there is water after sleeping!

It must be that the immortals saw that they were short of water, so please ask Ms. Wen to give her advice!

Miss Wen is so good!
Wen Yu smiled and didn't have much mood swings. She didn't know that other people's speculations about her were getting outrageous.

"Now that we have found the water source, let's go back and ask everyone to bring water with containers!"

Cui Xing's family ran out of water in the morning. After all, the three brothers in the family were all outside. After hearing the news from the county, when they returned to the village, everyone in the village had packed up and was ready to go.

Cui Xing was embarrassed to make people wait, so he hurriedly set off with the big team.

There are not many water containers with me, and the middle-aged men and half-children in the family can waste water. It has been a while since the last time the water source was replenished, so I have long been troubled by water shortage.

Xu Laoer was about to agree, when he glanced at the open space from the corner of his eye, few trees, and inexhaustible water source, he changed his mind when he came to his mouth.

"Cui Da, you have a lot of hunting experience, let's take a look first, are there any wild animals infesting here?"

Cui Xing shook his head with a confident face.

"I looked at everything along the way. There are no footprints of large animals, feces, traces of life, at most a few rabbits, pheasants and the like."

Speaking of rabbits and pheasants, Cui Xing couldn't help but salivate.

I haven't eaten meat for a long time! ! !
"However, Second Brother Xu, why are you asking this?"

Wen Yu thought of what Xu Laoer was up to the moment he made his voice. At this time, Xu Laoer looked at him, as if asking for advice. After Wen Yu nodded, Xu Laoer explained.

"It's open here, with branches and leaves covering the sun, plenty of water, and game to hunt. I thought, let everyone come here and rest for a few days, just as we just got a batch of food."

After Wen Yu finished listening, she skipped the events of the past two days in her mind and added something.

"Don't forget there are bandits. The bandits near Baobuqi have found that the village is empty and are chasing us. They hide on the mountain and find someone to clean up the traces. Even if they chase, they can't find where we are. "

Hearing Wen Yu mention that bandits might come after them again, none of the people present panicked.

They were ordinary people, perhaps confined to the fields all their lives, but in this chaotic world, they saw fire and blood, experienced a battle that was not considered a war, and some kind of transformation has taken place.

"Miss Wen is thinking that bandits are very likely to come after them. Let's hide in the mountains. Maybe we can find out the number of bandits. If there are few bandits..."

Everyone knows what Xu Laoer didn't say, so he didn't continue talking tacitly.

The journey back seemed extremely urgent. Village head Tian stood at the entrance of the mountain and looked forward to it. Seeing that the five people were all smiling and relaxed, he also let out a sigh of relief.

The next thing is much simpler. Xu Lao Er and Tian Village Chief only need to say that they have found the water source, and they have succeeded in making everyone hold their breath and listen carefully to the follow-up.

Therefore, 200 people temporarily changed their way into the mountain, leaving a few people in place to clean up the traces, led by Cui Xing. He is used to catching wild animals, he knows how to track them, and naturally he also knows how to clean up the traces.

The main difficulty for the team entering the mountain lies in the mule carts. The mountain road is narrow and full of trees. Fortunately, the Xu family's mule carts do not have many boards and the objects are not too heavy. It is difficult to pass through the forest.

Everyone came near the spring, looking at the clear stream with glowing eyes.

"Let's set the rules first. The upstream water can only be used for eating and drinking. If you want to do laundry or wash your hands, you have to go downstream."

"Don't go alone when you go out, call someone in time when you encounter danger, and don't forget the established patrol rules!"

"."

Xu Laoer finished announcing the precautions one by one, and waved his hand to signal that everyone can move freely.

After meeting the rain for a long time, the old and the young chatted, the young children played, laughed, sang and danced.
-
Liangzhou, Anping City.

A group of cavalry in light armor approached the city gate, about seven or eight of them, and the last one had a flag tied to his back.

The soldiers guarding the gate became vigilant when they saw the cavalry from a distance, took up their spears and shouted loudly.

"Who is coming?"

"Special envoy of King An!"

A mighty voice came in response to the soldiers' questions, and when they were dozens of steps away from the city gate, the leading captain raised his hand and motioned to get off his horse.

Seeing the person who came voluntarily slowed down and dismounted, the soldier swallowed back his heart that was beating to his throat.

My dear, their aura is so scary!

The cousin clearly said that this is an idle position, and there is still money to be made!

The soldier touched Pang Pang's beating heart without a trace, and looked at the person coming.

Bright silver armor, two knives on the waist, exposed, wheat-colored skin, and sharp facial features like a knife, a pair of eyes without the slightest movement, like a wolf hunting patiently.

Soldier: It's scary, but you have to work hard.jpg
"Special envoy of King An? Is there a clearance certificate?"

The soldier asked nervously, only to see that the other party did not get angry in the face of interrogation, and took out a document from his arms and handed it to him.

For a moment, more than a dozen pairs of eyes fell on him, and a few drops of sweat appeared on the soldier's forehead. He opened the document tremblingly, and looked at the group of people from the content and description above. They were indeed the special envoy of King An.

"Go in, don't hurt people with horses when you enter the city."

The taciturn captain accepted the customs clearance document. Behind him was a white-faced scholar who was also wearing armor. Someone who seemed to be a subordinate came over, with a smile on his face, and grabbed the hand of the soldier at the city gate.

"It's hard work, everyone is in charge, it's not easy, so I invite you brothers to drink some wine."

He took a few pieces of silver, and the soldier subconsciously grabbed them. Before he could react, the white-faced scholar retreated.

The captain with a cold face got on his horse, and his movements were smooth and easy, leading six or seven soldiers behind him into the city.

The soldiers at the city gate noticed that there was a hideous scar on the back of the team leader's hand, and it seemed that he had not been injured for a long time.

This man can move freely even when he is wearing heavy armor. What kind of opponent can hurt him?

This question is destined to be unanswered, and the squadron of cavalry has already walked away in sight.

Entering Anping City, their eyes were straight, and they never looked around like other soldiers who had been on the road for a long time. Their bodies were relaxed, but they had a clear goal and went straight to Prince Ning's Mansion.

King Ning's fiefdom is located in the northwest of the Daxia Dynasty's territory, and it sits on two states, namely Liangzhou and Yongzhou. Among them, King Ning's mansion is in Liangzhou and Anping City.

At this time, although King Ning and King Qi were at war, and the flames of the war were expanding day by day, the two sides filled tens of thousands of troops in the area of ​​Xiliang Pass, like setting up a cauldron, pouring Xiliang Pass and its vicinity up and down. Suffering non-stop outside.

At this time, King Ning was entertaining guests in the mansion.

Pavilions, terraces and waterside pavilions, singing and dancing, people and shadows coming and going, cups and cups staggered, drinking for three rounds, gold, silver and jade falling on the body, delicate and soft beauties in the arms, a look of drunkenness and gold fascination.

"My lord, there are a group of people who claim to be the special envoys of King An and come to pay their respects."

A thin body guard bowed his head and came to the corner of the banquet. Behind the light blue tulle sat a tall and upright man. It was the initiator of this banquet, King Ning.

He has a straight posture and clear eyes, obviously he didn't get drunk with the people at the banquet.

"King An?"

"Yes, the villain has checked the credentials they brought, and it was indeed sent by King An."

The guard's tone became more and more respectful, and he bent down again and again, only daring to stare at his own toes.

"Interesting, I'm going to meet them, it seems that King An wants to get involved..."

King Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, stood up with a flick of his robe, and strode forward. His thick back made his back look like a bear, and his honest face often made people think he was stupid and deceitful.

"Let the Black Armored Army take action, none of these people will be left behind."

King Ning's steps were windy, and the guards trotted behind to keep up. Suddenly hearing King Ning's order, no matter how surprised he was, he didn't dare to show it, and only responded in a low voice.

"Yes."

No one noticed that the host of the banquet had left, or in other words, even if someone found out, they didn't dare to say anything.

A moment later, an exclamation sounded, and it was quickly suppressed in his mouth, leaving only a few swords sliding across the skin, blood splattering, and tightly muffled sobs.

...............

On the other side, in the mountains and forests, everyone passed the excitement of seeing the water source, and began to chop firewood and boil water with great fanfare.

Without him, after walking for so long, a lot of sweat can be wrung out of the clothes every day, and the water source is scarce, and every mouthful must be used on the tip of the knife, so there is no chance to wash it.

Everyone stinks, especially when sleeping at night, even the husband and wife are reluctant to sleep together.

Now that I have the conditions, of course I have to wash myself clean and wash out the changed clothes at the same time.

Wen Yu couldn't stand the smell, but he didn't have the strength to chop firewood, and he didn't have tools to hold water, so he really didn't know how the original body survived the first ten days.

It was Da Ya who just came to tell her that the Xu family had boiled a lot of water and brought a wooden barrel, and Da Ya would call her when she was ready.

So when everyone was busy, Wen Yu took a break and sat down on a big rock.

It didn't take long to see Cui Xing sneaking over, he wanted to speak but stopped many times, and finally asked what was in his heart.

"Xian...Miss Wen, what, the sword you made last night, I...can we learn it?"

 Cui Xing: I have been greedy for a long time, if I can also use a sword, then no wild beast can escape my hunting range (laugh with my arms akimbo)

  (Today is a bit late, because there are too many classes, tomorrow will be sent at noon.)
  (And, ask for a ticket, woo woo)
