Chapter 29: The Journey of the Liao Kingdom (7)

Jiang Xun came to this place again, but it was very different.

Under the light of the setting sun, on the vast plain, the ragged girl was tied to the cross, her bony body had countless whip marks, and the coagulated blood stained the girl's body and the lower end of the cross red, such an injury was undoubtedly a dead person, but her chest still heaved, which was the only proof that she was still alive.

Jiang Xun couldn't control himself, and walked towards the woman as if he had been summoned by some kind of summons.

The girl saw Jiang Xun and raised her head, revealing a beautiful smile that had not been erased by the ordeal.

"Do you think everything is predestined?"

She asked softly, as natural as a childish child asking an elder a question.

Sadness drowned Jiang Xun like a rising tide, he stared at the girl, and tears fell unconsciously.

He didn't know her, but he felt a grief for her that he had never felt before.

"Do you think everything is predestined?"

It was still as natural as a child asking an elder, but Jiang Xun didn't know how to respond to her inquiry, just stared at her blankly.

She finally smiled and burst into tears, dripping the blood from her face, and her tone was finally unnatural. She trembled and repeated the phrase again:

"Do you think everything is predestined?"

After Jiang Xun was stunned by her tears for a long time, he finally stretched out his hand to the girl tremblingly, but it was too far away and too far away for Jiang Xun to wipe away her tears anymore, and could only watch the light in her eyes disappear into the boundless plain like the sun.

"No!" Jiang Xun yelled hysterically, but he was already in the shattered plains and boundless darkness.

"Jiang Xun, wake up, are you having nightmares again?" The familiar voice pulled Jiang Xun back to reality, and what caught his eye was his hand raised in the air and the clear light blue eyes of Chu Enoch, who was looking at him.

By the way, he remembered that after the three of them finished moving the supplies, Senior Li Shunping wanted to find a carriage to move these things and left temporarily, he and Chu Enoch found a place to use the soul shadow to clear the snow and then found some wood to make a fire to keep warm, because Chu Enoch temporarily borrowed a few blankets from the materials and spread them on the ground, so he slept unconsciously in this warmth.

"Ahem, ahem, what time is it now?" Jiang Xun looked at the blanket draped on his body, and then looked at the burning pyre, and found that some firewood seemed to have been added, and he didn't know how long he had been asleep.

Chu Enoch sat on a pile of hay and said, "It's probably almost dawn." ”

"Oh. Jiang Xun looked at Chu Enoch who was sitting on the hay, got up and draped the blanket on Chu Enoch, who was playing with the pyre.

"Aren't you sleeping?" Chu Enoch asked with a smile.

"Don't sleep anymore. Jiang Xun stood and observed the surroundings, the snow around him was much higher than here because it had just snowed.

"That's all right. Chu Enoch walked to the blanket where Jiang Xun was lying with a blanket, and said with a lazy smile: "Then I will sleep, you pay attention to the fire." ”

"......" Jiang Xun just wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything when he saw the tired appearance of Chu Eno, who had fallen asleep before he even took off his felt hat, so he had to play the fire boringly on the side.

But at this time, a translucent crow flew onto Jiang Xun's shoulder, flapping its wings.

Jiang Xun was a little surprised, so fast, this senior brother's action efficiency is too high.

But...... Jiang Xun looked at the face of Chu Enoch, who was lying on the side wrapped in a blanket and illuminated by the jumping firelight, and sighed slightly.

...... Let's let him lie down a little longer, now there is no hurry.

But just after a while, Chu Enoch opened his eyes, and his slightly squinted eyes revealed a tired look that could not be hidden.

Chu Enoch squinted at a crow perched on Chu Enoch's shoulder on the fire, and said, "Has it arrived?"

"Don't worry, you go back to sleep. Jiang Xun raised his eyebrows and looked at Chu Enoch, who was yawning, and said.

"It's okay, I'm used to it, I was born with this life, and a good night's sleep is still too much of a luxury for me. Chu Enoch sat up with a blanket, pressed his knees and smiled, "That's fine, at least it can warm up the fire more." ”

Jiang Xun looked at the face of Chu Enoch, who was smiling quietly with his eyes closed in a blanket, which reflected an attitude of peace in the firelight, which really made Jiang Xun a little sentimental, for some reason Jiang Xun remembered the previous dream again, it seemed that this mood was the same.

Soon, the crow on Jiang Xun's shoulder flapped its wings and twisted its little head restlessly.

Jiang Xun knew that he was about to leave, and Chu Enoch also knew, but these two people were still sitting in place, so anxious that the crows jumped and jumped.

"It's time to go. Chu Enoch handed the blanket to Jiang Xun, but Jiang Xun didn't twist it, and put it on directly after taking it.

"Okay. Jiang Xun kicked some snow into the firewood and extinguished the fire.

So, the two men walked through the snow and left when the sun was late.

"Oh, yes. Chu Enoch remembered something.

"What?"

"We'll have to move things later. ”

Jiang Xun then remembered that the previous supplies had to be carried into the carriage.

"What is the purpose of what you are saying this?" Jiang Xun was a little tired of this.

"I mean," Chu Enoch smiled lightly, "I guess I'll be lazy later, so I'll have to worry about you, Brother Jiang." ”

The corners of Jiang Xun's mouth trembled: "As for it?"

"I told you ahead of time, I can feel a little less guilty, can't I?"

Jiang Xun was speechless.

Soon, the two of them could see where the supplies were piled up, a carriage was parked next to it, and Li Shunping was casually leaning on the side of the carriage, holding a small thing with a little fire in his mouth.

"Senior!" Jiang Xun shouted loudly.

"You're here!" Seeing Jiang Xun and the two, Li Shunping waved his hand vigorously at them.

"Ahh

"You don't need to be so excited, Jiang Xun?"

"I want you to take care of it!" Jiang Xun's face turned red and struggled to get up, and then he saw Chu Enoch's appearance of holding back a smile, and immediately turned his head, only to find that Li Shunping was also smiling helplessly over there.

Jiang Xun lowered his head and stopped talking, Chu Enoch looked at Jiang Xun from behind, and his smile finally couldn't be contained.

Soon, they were together.

"Very good, let's start moving!" Li Shunping spit out a pungent smoke from his mouth, which made Jiang Xun and Chu Enoch both cough a few times.

"What is this?" Jiang Xun covered his nose.

Li Shunping took off the thin strip in his mouth and looked at Jiang Xun strangely: "Don't you know?"

"Of course he doesn't know, and he's not from Liao, this kind of thing is still rare," Chu Enoch patted Jiang Xun on the shoulder, "Isn't it?"

"Oh, too," Li Shunping handed the thin strip in his hand to Jiang Xun and said, "Then do you want to try it? This thing can ward off the cold and refresh me, and it was given to me by the shopkeeper when I went to rent a carriage." ”

"I don't want it," Jiang Xun took a few steps back, he was really startled by the pungent smell, "It's better to leave it to the seniors to enjoy." ”

"Really?" Li Shunping smiled and handed the thin strip to Chu Enoch again, "What about Senior Brother Chu?"

"I'll be exempt too," Chu Enoch smiled politely, "I've been a little allergic to this thing before." ”

"Huh?" Li Shunping was startled, and then directly threw the thin strip in his hand into the snow, "I'm sorry." ”

"In fact, it's just allergic to my own smoke, and if others smoke, it's not a big problem. Chu Enoch smiled a little embarrassedly.

Hearing this, Li Shunping's smile froze, and his body trembled: "Huh, what did you just say?"

"No, no, we still have to move things!" Chu Enoch hurriedly opened the topic, "Jiang Xun, go and move things, what are you waiting for?"

......Hearing this, Jiang Xun could only move the supplies speechlessly, but he always felt a little strange when he moved, why was he the only one moving from beginning to end? He looked over suspiciously, and then found that the two guys were leaning on the side of the carriage yawning.

"You guys, what are you two doing!" Jiang Xun looked at the two people as he was about to collapse.

"I'm sorry, Senior Brother Jiang, I'm indeed a little tired......" Li Shunping smiled bitterly, and then stepped forward to hold up what Jiang Xun was moving, "But it's okay, I should be able to fight again!"

Jiang Xun looked at Li Shunping and remembered that he had just gone to look for the carriage, and his heart suddenly softened.

"Senior, you don't have to ......"

"Well, I've already said hello to you!" Chu Enoch gave Jiang Xun a thumbs up on the side.

"Stop talking nonsense, come and help. Jiang Xun replied without the slightest hesitation, and then quickly moved the materials with Li Shunping and got into the car.

"It's really ruthless......" Chu Enoch scratched his face with a wry smile, and also went to help.

And in the depths of the woods, on a big tree, there were two people, one large and one small, hung on the thick branches, dressed in white, with ropes tied to their bodies, and they were quite hidden by the snow.

"Wake up, junior, now is not the time to sleep!" the small man struggled desperately to call the big man who was still asleep next to him.

"What's the matter, oh my dear mother, how could I be hung here!" the big man woke up and struggled violently.

"It's useless, third child, the above has been forbidden, and the power of the soul shadow can't be used. ”

"What then!"

"I can only wait for the boss. ”

"Oh, then wait. The big man said in a nonchalant tone.

"But now there's a problem. ”

"What's the problem?"

"I just found out...... There's a bear hibernating in the tree hole below......"

β€œοΌοΌοΌβ€

"Roar~Roarβ€”"

An earth-shattering beast roar shook the snow on the surrounding trees and shook off a lot, and Chu Enoch, who was still moving things, raised his head with feeling, took a deep breath to the sky that was already a little light, and then exhaled a burst of hot white mist.

Well, so be it.
