The brothers who traveled westward in those years

Chapter 1029 0063, Wen Zhong died
Chao Gejun's mouths were parched, and they staggered as they walked.But now they are in the mountains, and there is no grass growing around them.Now they can only hurry and find the village to have food and drink.Someone fell down on the way, at first Wen Zhong would ask people to help the fallen person up in such a situation.

Later, more and more people fell down, and they were exhausted and had no strength to continue walking.Most people have run out of strength, so Wen Zhong had to make a choice.

Although this choice may seem cruel, it is necessary to do so at present.Those who can't get up stay there, and no one can help them.Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even Wen Zhong encountered this situation.

They have no extra strength now, and they have to gather enough strength to speak.Let alone helping people, none of them would have any objections at the moment.

In the desolate valley, Wen Zhong finally saw a glimmer of hope.They came across a small stream in the valley. Although there were no fish in the stream, drinking water could fill them up.

"Pfft!"

After several muffled sounds, many people jumped directly into the stream to drink.Some people came up after drinking, and some people just went down and didn't move.

When Wen Zhong and his party left the creek, many of them stayed there forever.Watching them fall one by one in front of him, Wen Zhong felt regret for the first time.He regretted not listening to the persuasion at the beginning. He could show his loyalty by risking his life, but there was no need to drag so many people to die together.

When Jiang Ziya persuaded him to return to Chaoge, he had more than 20 soldiers at that time.If he retreated at that time, those people could return to Chaoge safely.

Of course, many of them later surrendered to Xiqi.Hearing the news at that time, Wen Zhong wished to kill them all.Looking back now, he wished that everyone would return to Xiqi at that time.

Such as Ji Li and Yu Qing, such as Deng Zhong and Tao Rong, such as Xin Huan and Zhang Jie.They are all good guys, and they are all his most trusted subordinates.It's a pity that they chose the wrong person and misunderstood him as the main general.

Deng Zhong used to persuade him, but now no one comes to comfort him.After so many years of fighting in the South and the North, he ended up as a lonely family.

It seemed that he was used to Mo Qilin's presence, and after walking for a day, Lu Wenzhong felt his legs were sore.Maybe it's because of getting old, but it's mostly because of getting used to the presence of Mo Qilin.

He had countless fantasies about his future, and died in battle in a foreign country.Ben was a person who fought in the battlefield, never thought that he would die comfortably at home.But he didn't expect that before he died, all the people around him would take a step ahead.Even the old buddy Mo Qilin was one step ahead of him, it's incredible to think about it.

After passing through the valley and over a mountain, Wen Zhong and his party saw hope again.Because they saw the cooking smoke, where there is cooking smoke, there are people, and where there are people, there is food.

In order to survive, many of them ate bark, weeds and all living things they came across.Now that their stomachs have adapted to those things, their digestion is not the same.

Even if they have seen the cooking smoke, it is not too close to where they are now.According to the experience of marching in the past, they still need at least half a day's journey.

When Wen Zhong came to the middle of the mountain, he got a good news and a bad news.

The good news is that the village is much closer than they imagined, and they will be able to enter the village in half an hour.The bad news is that there is a river under the mountain, and it seems that the river is quite wide.

With all exhausted, the river would have killed many of them.The river is so fast, if they are in a normal state, the risk factor of crossing the river is not low.In addition, their physical strength is now less than half, and the physical energy consumption in the river is several times higher than that on the road.

Many people have come to the river, but no one dares to try.Although Wen Zhong has not yet reached the river, he has already guessed what everyone is thinking.

Now is the time for him to make suggestions, as long as they can cross this river, they will be considered alive.Going back to Chaoge is no longer a dream, and making a comeback is no longer a fantasy.

Let three people tie the vines to cross the river, and then follow up with people to stabilize the vines from both sides.According to the method proposed by Wen Zhong, they soon arrived at the village.

Wen Zhong and his party went to the village to stay overnight, and an old man named Li Ji was in charge of receiving them.He is about the same age as Wen Zhong, but he is not as energetic as Wen Zhong.After learning of Wen Zhong's identity, Li Ji hurriedly ordered his servants to prepare food for Wen Zhong and his soldiers.

The village is almost cut off from the outside world and has no idea what's going on outside.However, Wen Zhong and others stayed here for a night, which really let Li Ji know a lot of things outside.

But Li Ji couldn't figure it out, since those soldiers said that Xibohou was a benevolent person, and the current king of martial arts, Ji Fa, who succeeded Xibohou's position, was even more benevolent and righteous.That being the case, why did King Zhou send troops to conquer them?

The matter was explained by Wen Zhong and Li Ji, but Wen Zhong couldn't answer this question.Although it was a bit late to see through, Wen Zhong also had the same idea at this time.In the past, he only said that those people failed Chengtang, but now it seems that this is not the case.

If King Zhou did not become what he is now, if King Zhou practiced benevolent government like the first emperor.If King Zhou would not become a foolish king in the mouth of the people, it would be impossible for him to develop into what he is now.

Early the next morning, Wen Zhong led the crowd to leave the village.

Li Ji was sent to the entrance of the village, and Wen Zhong promised to repay him generously in the future.Li Ji shook his head with a smile, and told Wen Zhong to persuade King Zhou when he returned to Chaoge.According to what Wen Zhong said earlier, he had already judged that King Zhou had done too many ridiculous things.If King Zhou could not get rid of those bad habits, it would be difficult to preserve Chengtang Jiangshan.

If it were someone else, Wen Zhong would definitely not forgive him lightly if he dared to say so.But these words came from an old man isolated from the world, so Wen Zhong had to think twice.

Wen Zhong and his party left the village. After walking for half a day, they could not see the main road.According to their previous deduction, they should be able to reach the main road within half a day.That road leads to Qinglong Pass, but they haven't seen the road yet, so they seem to have lost their way again.

Hearing singing not far away, Wen Zhong sent someone to ask for directions.The one who sang was a woodcutter who showed the way for the soldiers who were going to ask for the way.According to this, fifteen li to the southwest, they will be able to walk to the road leading to Qinglong Pass.

The soldiers reported back to Wen Zhong, and the group continued on their way to the southwest.When the fifteen miles were almost finished, Wen Zhong suddenly felt very uncomfortable.After pinching his fingers and counting, his face changed drastically, and he was fooled again.There is nothing in this wilderness, how could there be a woodcutter cutting firewood here.

He was really careless, never thought that the woodcutter would be someone else.And the reason why that person will help them guide the way is to lead them to this place.
