Chapter 2014 Arriving at the Barracks (1)
On the second day after arriving in Licheng, the carriage that Qin Shuang and Achen were sitting in went out of the city with the guards of Licheng to the military camp ten miles outside the city. By the way, they also left behind them in Licheng. There are rumors that the young master came to visit General Situ.

When I first left the city, I could occasionally see some caravans or passers-by coming and going. After I left the city for more than two miles, I hardly saw anyone. Caravans from Licheng to do business outside the customs have a specific driving route, and this route is opposite to the direction of the military camp or separated by a large distance.

Unless you are going to the barracks, you will rarely see people on the road, and those who can go to the barracks without incident are basically people from the Licheng government to send some necessities to the barracks. Such a team will come every three days. Once, Qin Shuang and his team left the day before they came, so they were the only ones going to the barracks today.

Qin Shuang and Ah Chen looked out through the car window, and found that the scenery outside the pass was not as desolate as expected, mainly because it was still within the territory of Xuantian Kingdom. Some small countries with harsh environments are full of desolation and no grass grows. On the contrary, after leaving the customs, the vegetation is more lush, and even in the distance you can vaguely see endless mountains. They are deep mountains only a dozen miles away from the military camp. It is said that there are many ferocious beasts in the mountains, and there are many precious medicinal materials, but because the mountains are too dangerous, even people in the military camp are rarely able to go in casually.

But once in a while, when there is no war, the food and clothing for military supplies can only be taken care of, and you don’t expect to be able to eat well. After training, some people will go to the mountain to catch a pheasant or something to beat teeth, but it’s only at the foot of the mountain. Or on the mountainside, no one will casually go into the deep mountains, even if there are more than a dozen people together, the danger is very great.

When Qin Tian first came to Licheng, he followed other people to go twice, and he didn't go deep into the mountains, but when he was catching pheasants on the mountainside, he heard dozens of wolves howling together, or bears barking more than once. The voice, it sounds really scary.

If Qin Tian was alone, running or fighting would be fine, but there were other soldiers at the time, so he could only follow the warnings of the others, grab a pheasant, roast it, eat a couple of bites, and then go back. Go into the mountains alone.

"Sister, it's good that you guys are here this time, we can go into the deep mountains and grab some good things to taste together!" Qin Tian looked at the distant mountains with covetous eyes.

He is not greedy for meat, but for game!The taste of domestic chicken, duck, fish or pork is indeed not bad, but compared with wild ones, it is still a little bit inferior in taste.

The people from Ruyi Village trained in the deep mountains of Fengtai Mountain. Although there are not as many wild animals in the deep mountains as here, it is not a place where ordinary people can come in and out casually. Going into the mountains and wandering around, coming and going is no different from visiting your own backyard, but you won't be as fearful as the soldiers here.

After listening to Qin Tian's description, Ah Chen was also very interested in the deep mountains here. He put his chin on Qin Shuang's shoulder and said, "Shuangshuang, when we settle down, do you want to go to the mountains to play when you have time?"

Qin Shuang nodded without hesitation and said: "Yes, the military pay we brought here this time is mainly composed of various grains and vegetables, and the meat is only a small part of dried meat. Fresh meat is not brought. If there is a real shortage of fresh meat, at worst we can bring back some large beasts for them."
