Chapter 757: Stalemate
The experienced Cao Chengguang looked left and right, and finally his gaze fell on the mount in front of him, and he coughed and said, "Have you ever seen a horse breeding?"
Huang Feixue glared at Cao Chengguang fiercely, blushing to the base of her neck, and chased after Zhang Chi in front of her.
Cao Chengguang couldn't cry or laugh a little, I was kind enough to help you popularize science, but in the end, I offended you? What are you glaring at me? Xiao Nizi is not kind, learn from me, learn from Zhang Chi, Made, Lao Tzu, this good person deserves to be aggrieved.
Huang Qitai came to Cao Chengguang's side and smiled at him: "Why did you offend the flying snow girl?"
Cao Chengguang said angrily: "Why do you see that I offended her? ”
Huang Qitai didn't dare to provoke him, hehe laughed, and said in his heart, don't talk about dog eyes, just your height and long legs, everyone looks at you low.
The caravan had already entered the mountain pass, Cao Chengguang looked up to both sides, and only by being there could he experience the depression of walking into the mountain pass,
The cliffs on both sides are so high that only a narrow mountain road in the middle can be passed, and the mountain road is undulating, and the narrowest part can only accommodate one person to pass through, and once the enemy attacks from both sides, the team entering the mountain pass will not even find a place to hide.
The more the members of the caravan looked, the more frightened they became, so they were convinced by Zhang Chi and understood Zhang Chi's painstaking efforts.
The group left the mountain pass tremblingly, and it was not until the moment they left that they breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of their hearts, and Zhang Chi called Huang Qitai to his side and asked him about the road conditions ahead.
Huang Qitai told Zhang Chi that passing through the mountain pass is equivalent to crossing the Lingxiao Mountain Range, this mountain range is the natural boundary between the Shanman Clan and the Chongmu Clan, and there was no such mountain pass in the past, and later the Shanman Clan joined forces with the Black Moon Clan to invade the Chongmu Clan, in order to facilitate the invasion, the mountain pass was blown up and excavated, and the Northern Wilderness was connected, and the Chongmu Clan also lost its natural barrier.
However, the Shanman clan also suffered the same fate shortly after destroying the Chongmu clan, and the Black Moon clan became the one who had the last laugh in the Northern Wilderness.
Looking back at Yamaguchi was like a big mouth of mockery, as if mocking the sad fate of the Yamaman clan.
For the caravan, Crystal City is the end of their trip, but for Zhang Chi, it is only the middle point, after arriving in Crystal City, he will continue to go to the Cold Mountain Plateau to meet Qin Luzhu, Qin Luzhu does not know the news of his return to the Netherworld.
Thinking of Qin Luzhu and the Snow Girl, Zhang Chi's heart couldn't help but feel a little hot, he had only left the Netherworld for a few months, but ten years had passed here, I don't know how they had changed in the past ten years, had you ever thought about yourself?
Snow began to fall shortly after leaving the pass, and those born in the Northern Wilderness have long been accustomed to everything here.
The nearest route to Crystal City is through the Dark Night Forest, Zhang Chi had walked through it once, and he still remembers the bad road conditions of the forest, and he also met the Dubeifeng couple who came to pursue him in the Dark Night Forest, and fought with them, if He Donglai hadn't arrived in time, it would have been difficult for them to defeat the Dubeifeng couple.
Huang Zhulang became more and more respectful to Zhang Chi after the Battle of Yamaguchi, and he specifically asked Zhang Chi for his opinion on how to go next.
Zhang Chi looked at Huang Qitai, and in terms of which route to choose, the experienced Huang Qitai had more say.
Huang Qitai said: "If no one has the idea of hitting this batch of goods on the way, let's choose the prism ice field is the flattest route, although it is farther, but the road conditions are much better than the side of the dark night forest, but the dark night forest also has advantages, there are many trees in it, the roads are intricate, easy to conceal, and there will be no more attacks by the griffin flock that day." ”
Huang Zhulang also tended to choose the route of the Dark Night Forest, after all, this road was shorter, and they had little time left, so they had to speed up the journey as much as possible.
After listening to their opinions, Zhang Chi immediately decided to choose the route of the Dark Night Forest.
It turned out that their choice was correct, after entering the Dark Night Forest, the road was unimpeded, and after ten days, they had successfully left the Dark Night Forest, and most of the journey had been taken, Huang Zhulang calculated the distance, and there was no problem in rushing to Crystal City within seven days, if it went well, it could be about five days in advance.
At the junction of the Dark Night Forest and the Snow Field is a large meadow, where there is no snow cover, and they decided to adjust here to rest for a day, the mounts are mostly exhausted after a long day of travel, so they can rest here and replenish the fodder by the way, and the rest of the journey is a vast ice field, where there is no place to replenish.
Huang Feixue released the golden eagle, and after the golden eagle lifted off, she could observe the surrounding situation, and if there was any abnormality, she would be notified as soon as possible.
Zhang Chi looked up and watched the golden eagle fly higher and higher, like a star rising in the night sky.
Huang Feixue said: "My mother once told me that when a person dies, he will become a star. ”
Zhang Chi smiled: "It's just a legend." ”
Huang Feixue said: "I have never seen the flower season, I heard that only the Luofu Plain can see the light, I have always wanted to go and see it, but I didn't have the opportunity." ”
Zhang Chi said: "I'll take you there when I have a chance." ”
Huang Feixue blinked, her face full of joy: "What is the Luofu Plain like?
Zhang Chi said: "It doesn't make a difference, it's just that one month of the year is daytime." ”
Huang Feixue nodded, and said with some loss: "I am a slave, and I can't go around." ”
Zhang Chi said: "Silly girl, I told you, no one treats you as a slave, puff up your chest......"
Huang Feixue was very obedient and straightened her chest, which was a bit exaggerated. Zhang Daxian looked at it, but it was amazing, and hurriedly said: "Close your eyes and take a deep breath!"
Huang Feixue closed her eyes and took a deep breath, Zhang Daxian was a little inflated, and quickly turned around and bowed down and slipped back to the tent, revealing herself if she didn't go back, what did this Nizi look like, how did she develop like this?
Huang Feixue opened her eyes and saw that Zhang Chi had no shadow, bit her lip, sighed, and secretly wondered in her heart, does Childe not like me?
Cao Chengguang walked over from the side, and when he saw Huang Feixue's sad face, he couldn't help asking, "Feixue girl, why are you worried?"
Huang Feixue said: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
Cao Chengguang was bored with himself, turned around and was about to walk away, walked a few steps and stopped and said to Huang Feixue: "Take the initiative." "I still can't change the beauty of adults. Seeing Huang Feixue bow his head in shame, Cao Chengguang laughed happily, turned around and continued walking, only to find that the lightning had stopped him and looked at him suspiciously.
Cao Chengguang said: "Look at what I'm doing? Get out of the way, good dogs don't get in the way." ”
The lightning grinned, Cao Chengguang didn't dare to provoke it, and said with a smile: "You are not a dog, you are a wolf, how noble your blood is." ”
Lightning shook his neck, and the ice slag fell on Cao Chengguang's face, Cao Chengguang was depressed, but he dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, digging a hole to sleep, and the days without a woman were too boring.
Cao Chengguang found the hole in the ground and drilled in, thinking of Huang Feixue and Zhang Chi, he suddenly had an uncontrollable curiosity, all the way for so many days, sleeping in a tent, nothing happened? It's incredible, Zhang Chi is not like an incompetent personality, of course, this thing is not like a righteous gentleman who is not messing around, in the face of such a beautiful and charming slave girl, the beautiful woman who is ready to dedicate herself at any time is indifferent, Cao Chengguang does not believe it at all.
Anyway, it's not far from the tent, and it's idle to be idle, sneak under their tent and listen to what the two of them are talking about, in case the two of them are talking or something, it can be enjoyable to listen.
Cao Chengguang gave full play to his superpowers, quietly dug a hole, and dug all the way to the bottom of the tent, which was very spacious, lying underneath, waiting for a while, and finally heard the movement above.
"Childe, you can rest. ”
"You go to sleep first, I'll practice for a while. ”
Cao Chengguang's ears were attached to the top wall of the pit, and after listening to it for a long time, he didn't hear the expected sound, and sighed in his heart, Zhang Chi, this kid really didn't move people, what a waste! Could it be that the soil layer is too thick? Cao Chengguang dug the soil layer a little thinner.
I heard Huang Feixue say: "Childe, you ...... Don't you like me?"
Cao Chengguang was secretly happy in his heart, he finally got to the point, Xiao Nizi couldn't help her own demagoguery, and finally took the initiative, the man chased the woman across the mountain, and the woman chased the man on the paper, as long as Huang Feixue used some means, he relaxed that kid, I didn't believe he could hold it.
Zhang Chi smiled: "Feixue, why do you ask that?"
Huang Feixue said: "It's nothing. ”
"Sleep!"
There was no movement again, Cao Chengguang put his ears tightly, completely silent, Cao Chengguang was a little unwilling, it took a long time to dig such a pit, I wanted to hear something exciting, but I didn't expect such a clear soup and little water, I'm sorry for my efforts, Zhang Chi, Zhang Chi, can you be as hard as a man once?
Cao Chengguang deeply realized what it means to call the emperor not to be anxious and the eunuch to be in a hurry, this life is too boring, and the first thing to do when he arrives in Crystal City is to go to Flower Street to relax and relax, provided that there is a service in this area.
Cao Chengguang heard the movement of the squirrel, and thought that the prelude had finally started above, but when he heard carefully, the sound actually came from below, and someone was making a hole.
Cao Chengguang put his ear on the ground, and quickly judged that the excavation should be about two meters below him, and the direction was diagonally upward, if he didn't change the excavation route halfway, he shouldn't dig through the place where he was hiding, and in the caravan, except for him, no one else seemed to have the ability to dig holes.
Cao Chengguang's brain is running fast, according to the information he currently has, it is the Chongmu clan that is good at digging holes, but the Chongmu clan has no grudge against them, and he and Zhang Chi have also saved many people from the Chongmu clan, will this group of people take revenge?
The excavation continued, and Cao Chengguang hesitated in his heart, should he go and inform Zhang Chi? But if he went to notify now, wouldn't he expose the fact that he was secretly listening to the room under his tent? Just when he hesitated, suddenly a spear suddenly stabbed down from above, Cao Chengguang was startled, and hurriedly separated the two small short legs, and the tip of the spear pierced the ground between his legs.
Along with the blooming of the tip of the gun, there is also the internal strength that comes at the same time.
The cave where Cao Chengguang was located was torn apart by the internal strength, Cao Chengguang leaped up with a snort and landed in the camp tent, but saw Zhang Chi looking down at him majestically with a spear in his hand.
On the other side, Huang Feixue was also neatly dressed and glared at him coldly.
This is embarrassing, Cao Chengguang pointed to the ground and said, "Someone wants to sneak attack you." ”
Zhang Chi said: "The thief shouted to catch the thief, Lao Cao, there is really you." ”
Cao Chengguang couldn't cry or laugh: "I lied to you, there is an ambush ...... below"
Before he could finish speaking, the ground cracked, and hundreds of samurai in brown leather armor emerged from the ground, one by one with weapons in hand, and surrounded the caravan.
Zhang Chi thought that Cao Chengguang, an old shameless man, had gone under the tent to eavesdrop, but now he knew that Cao Chengguang was not lying, and there was really an ambush underground.
Fortunately for them on their side, two wagons had already fallen into the ground, and many members of the caravan had fallen into the hands of this group of samurai.
Zhang Chi sighed secretly in his heart, they only used this method to deal with the bandits of Ice Wind Village a few days ago, and they didn't expect that it would be their turn so soon, Zhang Chi threw a mouse trap, with him and Cao Chengguang plus the wolves lurking around, there was no problem in turning defeat into victory, but this would inevitably cause a large number of casualties.
Lightning led more than twenty wind wolves to sense that something was wrong, and they were already rushing towards this direction from a distance.
The leader of the brown-armored warrior stabbed a short knife across Cao Chengguang's neck and threatened, "Let the wolves retreat, or I will kill them." ”
Zhang Chi gave orders to Lightning, telling him to control his subordinates and not rush to attack.
Zhang Chi said calmly: "If you kill any of them, I can guarantee that you will all die, and none of them will leave alive." ”
The brown-armored warrior looked at Zhang Chi with a pair of deep eyes and no fear: "Do you think we will be afraid of death? ”
Zhang Chi said: "You are the Chongmu clan, right? We are just passing merchants, you want to ask for money to discuss, there is no need to hurt people's lives." ”
The brown-armored warrior nodded and said, "Okay, leave all the goods behind, and I can let you leave alive." ”
Zhang Chi secretly wondered in his heart, sure enough, it was still the trouble caused by this batch of goods, what effect does black blood have on these heavy-eyed people?
Huang Zhulang shouted on the side: "Zhang Gongzi, don't hand over the goods to them, otherwise we will all die, brothers, fight with them!"
Zhang Chi glared at Huang Zhulang and reprimanded: "Do you have the right to speak here?
Huang Zhulang was scolded by him, so he could only swallow his mouth and shut up, secretly thinking in his heart, if Zhang Chi really agreed, it would be a big deal to fight with these heavy-eyed people and end up together.
Cao Chengguang crossed his arms and looked at Zhang Chi, the scene was undoubtedly in a stalemate, but he didn't have any pressure, even if the goods were lost and the caravan was dead, he and Zhang Chi could pat their butts and leave, there was no need to bear this responsibility, they were just passers-by in the Netherworld. However, Cao Chengguang is very curious, how to resolve the situation in front of him?
