Chapter 171
Two days later, people can clearly feel that the deployment of troops from the imperial capital has become more frequent in the past few days, and from time to time, groups of imperial troops can be seen marching towards the border.

Some troops went to the Boundary Mountains and seemed to be searching for something, especially the area around Feiyu Mountain, which had been completely sealed off to prevent adventurers and mercenaries from entering.

People don't know what's going on, but that doesn't stop them from making up their minds.

There are rumors that the Red Eagle Emperor disliked that his palace was too small and wanted the entire empire to expand its territory outward.

There are also rumors that the development of the border area of ​​the empire is too backward, and His Majesty sent people there to prepare for the construction of an economic development city.

Of course, there are also rumors that some restless orcs have wandered around the borders of the empire recently, and even some, such as the Black Flame Dogs, have made some progress in aggression before, although they only invaded some small villages.

But the emperor seemed not to allow these aggressions to happen, and sent troops out to prepare to wipe out the surrounding orc tribes.

There are thousands of rumors, and the commoners in the imperial capital don't know which news to believe, but they can feel that the atmosphere of the entire imperial capital has changed, full of chills.

Even the weather was very suitable for the occasion, and it rained for two consecutive days.

"The wind and rain are coming." Lin Wu lay in a pavilion of the Supreme Academy and sighed.

"Do you still want to come? The wind and rain have already come." Yan Tao pointed at the strong wind and rain outside, and complained.

"What adults say has artistic conception, you don't understand." Lin Wu blinked, and slowly changed from lying on his back to lying on his side, not looking at Yan Tao, with a lazy look.

"Obviously a brat, someone younger than me." Yan Tao said with contempt.

Lin Wu doesn't argue with Yan Tao, sometimes arguing with women is the most meaningless and tiring job.

Seeing that Lin Wu remained silent, Yan Tao changed the subject.

"Xiao Wu, I heard from my sister that you saved her at Feiyu Mountain, is it true?"

"How did your sister know my name? I don't seem to have told her." Lin Wu half-closed his eyes, looking like he was about to fall asleep.

"You're stupid, it's not easy for my sister to investigate your name." Yan Tao bumped Lin Wu with his arm and complained.

Thinking about it, Yan Xuegui is a princess, not to mention Lin Wu's name, even if it is Lin Wu who sits in the hole every day, as long as Lin Wu does not leave the imperial capital, he can probably investigate clearly.

"Oh."

"Oh what, it's true or not."

"It's true." Lin Wu raised his eyelashes helplessly and said with difficulty opening his eyes.

After Yan Tao got Lin Wu's reply, she immediately stood up. Of course, before she stood up, she didn't forget to drag Lin Wu up too.

Yan Tao was grateful, and thanked earnestly: "Thank you very much for saving my sister. My sister said that without you this time, she would really die. I don't know the specific situation, but I know you must have saved my sister too. It took a lot of risk, so thank you very much.”

After Yan Tao finished speaking, she bowed deeply to Lin Wu, not as a friend or a princess, but as a personal bow to thank the benefactor who saved her own sister.

Lin Wu's drowsiness subsided a little, he didn't expect Yan Tao's reaction to be so strong, he helped Yan Tao up, and said, "Hey, hey, did you understand something wrong, that vulture man was killed by your sister herself, I It was my unintentional act to save your sister just to make soy sauce there."

Lin Wu also wanted to say that his ice stone was still taken away, and he didn't give it to him.

"Anyway, I still want to thank you for saving my sister. If something happens to my sister, I don't know what to do." Yan Tao's expression was still serious, and she looked at Lin Wu with gratitude Affection.

"Then if you really want to thank me, just swear to God, don't complain about me in the future, and just don't disturb my sleep." Lin Wu said after thinking about it.

"Only these are impossible, absolutely impossible." Yan Tao still looked serious, waved his hands, and resolutely refused.

It seems that this is impossible to know without thinking.

"Is it really so difficult not to complain about me!" Lin Wu's teeth itched angrily.

"That's all right, go play by yourself, I'm going to sleep for a while, it's a waste of time not to listen to the sound of rain to sleep on a rainy day." Lin Wu fell down again, resting his head on his arms and closing his eyes.

Seeing that Lin Wu was going to sleep again, Yan Tao raised her hand, intending to pat him to wake him up like before. For some reason, she just couldn't see Lin Wu being lazy.

But this time, the raised hand paused for a second in mid-air, and then slowly lowered it.

The rain outside doesn’t seem to be getting any smaller. It’s still pouring. The raindrops fall on the ground, on the eaves, and on the leaves, making all kinds of soft noises. Listening carefully, there seems to be a rhythm, and a melody will emerge in my heart.

Yan Tao tilted his head and didn't disturb Lin Wu, instead he was lying opposite Lin Wu, head to head, imitating his head on his arm, and quietly closed his eyes.
In a forest at the border of the Red Eagle Empire.

A mule pig clumsily moved out of the bushes, pouted its buttocks, and swayed forward.

Suddenly its small eyes lit up, staring straight ahead.

Under a big tree, there grew a white mushroom the size of a washbasin, exuding a tempting aroma.

The mule pig only felt that the growling of his stomach was louder than the sound of thunder in the sky last night. He sniffed in the direction of the white mushroom, and the aroma in the air made him unable to stop.

"Hmph..." The mule pig let go of its short hooves and ran forward, drooling from its mouth, and only saw the white mushroom in its eyes.

When it was close to the white mushroom, the crisis also came.

On the big tree, the dense branches and leaves twitched for a while, and then a black shadow flew down from it, and rushed towards the mule and pig.

The black shadow was so fast that it didn't give the mule pig any chance to react. With one hit, the mule pig died without even humming.

The black shadow lay on the mule pig's corpse, revealing its true face, it was a big vulture.

At this time, it was opening its mouth wide, constantly gnawing on the meat of the mule pig.

"I didn't expect that my dignified leader of the Black Feather Bird Clan would be reduced to devouring the raw meat of monsters in order to recover myself." Vulture spoke out.

"It's the princess of the Red Eagle Empire that made me fall into this state. Just wait, I will come back!" Vulture's voice was full of resentment.

It was the vulture man who had failed to attack Yan Xue before.

At that time, he was seriously injured, but in order to prevent the pursuers of the Red Eagle Empire from catching up, he had no choice but to fly desperately day and night until he escaped from the border of the Red Eagle Empire.

The injuries on his body have become more serious because of his lifeless flight during this period of time. He has no choice but to settle in this woods temporarily and stabilize his injuries first.
