Before dawn, Ning Xiaoxian had already woken up.

She rolled up the curtain on the small window, looked around her, and saw that it was too flat outside, so she yawned groggily. More than 20 days have passed since I left Siping County. The caravan had already traveled a state and had just entered the boundaries of Fengzhou.

There are many mountains in this state, and it is said that their next destination is also on the mountain, called Iwaki Castle. Truth be told, she didn't know, but the lush mountains in the distance looked like giant beasts crawling on the ground in the morning and dusk. The caravan had been walking for several more days in the mountains since the end of the previous stop, full of huge trees, and the roar of wild beasts could often be heard in the distance.

Long journeys are always monotonous, and the sounds outside are the same. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, you will get tired of seeing too much, not to mention that the most you see along the way are trees, trees, and trees...... After following the caravan for more than half a month, she slowly changed from her original curiosity to her current boredom.

But in any case, following the caravan, there are many things that you don't have to worry about, such as personal safety. This is also the reason why Changtian insisted that she go on the road with the caravan. Traveling between states and counties, following a caravan was originally a good way, not to mention that at that time, her vitality and energy were in urgent need of recuperation, and it was really not suitable for a person to stay overnight in the wilderness.

The world is not peaceful, and it would be a big mistake to think that caravans are honest businessmen. This kind of team is not composed of scattered businessmen, but a well-organized team with norms of behavior. Their business scope is extremely wide, in addition to the old business of transporting goods to and from the industry, they also undertake escorts, escorts and other businesses, like Ning Xiaoxian, who took refuge in the caravan on the road, if you don't count the twins of the bat demon, there are now a total of six in the team, and one of them is also a woman.

The guys in the caravan are not easy to mess with, and the caravan members that Ning Xiaoxian saw were basically bright-eyed, with their temples bulging high, and they were obviously all practitioners. Serious men rarely come out to do this, and many of those who can sneak into the caravan to eat this risky meal are thieves, bandits, and murderers, and everyone in the team has weapons in their hands, and even the cooks who make the rice may have several lives in their hands.

Fortunately, Deng Hao's attitude towards Ning Xiaoxian was very gentle, and his subordinates were naturally polite to her, just like treating customers, although it was only superficial, but this was enough for her. It is said that some small caravans took on the task of escorting, but when they reached the halfway point, they slaughtered the objects of the escort as fat sheep. Deng Hao is extremely strict, and his caravan has traveled south and north for more than ten years, but his reputation is very passable. He let Ning Xiaoxian enter the caravan, and no one in the whole team dared to say a word, of course, there was already a female guest in the team, and it was not a big deal to charge one more.

Now they were in a small clearing in the wilderness, and every day before nightfall, Deng Hao would direct the strong men to cut down trees to make a simple fence, and arrange all the horses and mules on the periphery to form a circle, with people and carriages perched in the middle.

After a long night of silence, the sound of people moving around could be heard outside.

In the morning, the dew was heavy, and the ground and the woods were damp, but experienced cooks still had the means to light the wood and make food, but the smell of smoke was a little choking. Of course, the caravan would not have the luxury of hiring a cook to take care of the food of the team members, a position that was made a cameo by an elderly man whom Deng Hao could trust. This person's surname is Liu, he is silent, and his face has been expressionless for many years, and he is called Liu Yimian by the rest of the team, that is, he is making fun of him for being paralyzed for many years, and he only has one expression. The taste of the food he made can only be described by the word hehe.

However, Liu's specialty is that he can cook extremely fast, and it only takes two quarters of an hour to cook all the food. Merchants are outside, how can there be so much attention to eating, often even the vegetables and soup are mixed together, everyone takes a pot to beat a spoonful or two of rice, and then covers the soup and vegetables on it. This is very similar to the "rice bowl" in another time and space, but the taste is inferior I don't know how much.

Ning Xiaoxian only watched Liu Yimian's cooking demonstration once, and he knew why he was cooking fast - if you use the hob method to cut melons and vegetables, then your speed will be extremely fast.

The hour had just passed, and Liu Yimian had already cooked breakfast. He picked up the iron spoon and struck it on the cauldron a few times, causing the sound of a very authentic broken gong to resound through the camp - this was the signal for the opening of the meal. Today's breakfast is the same as usual, it is difficult for people to identify the ingredients in it, with Ning Xiaoxian's eyesight, he can only barely see that there are pumpkins and eggplants in it, but these two have been rolled into a mess, and other strange things are unrecognizable anyway.

It's not that no one blames his food for being unpalatable, but everyone only dares to slander themselves. After all, it's not wise to offend the cook, especially if he has to control your food along the way.

The first person to come to eat had bloodshot eyes as he jumped from the tallest tree nearby. This is the night guard of the caravan, he has to be alone in the bleak wind and cold fog all night wide-eyed, pay attention to the dynamics around the caravan, and his mental state will naturally not be too good. He finally managed to stay up until the early morning, and after breakfast, he could go back to the car and sleep with his head covered, and there would be other people to take turns tonight.

In addition to Ning Xiaoxian, the caravan also had five guests accompanying the caravan. Two of the middle-aged men had already gotten up, walked over to make a bowl of rice, and swallowed their stomachs, apparently not pursuing the taste. In the early morning, there is still a little cool air in the deep mountains and old forests, and although Liu Yimian's soup and vegetables are very poor, they can eat a full and warm meal.

Both men were dressed as merchants, apparently peddlers of small trade, taking refuge in large caravans as they traveled from state to county. Compared to the bulk of the caravans, the items they sell are obviously much lighter and more valuable, so it is important to choose the right caravan. According to these two guys, it was not the first time they had cooperated with Deng Hao's caravan, and they had cooperated happily with each other.

The remaining three people seemed to her much more eccentric.

First of all, he is a Xixi, who looks like he is in his early thirties, his surname is Yan, everyone doesn't know his name, only calls him Mr. Yan.

Mr. Yan's facial features are not outstanding, and they belong to the level of being thrown into the crowd and standing out to everyone. But he was extremely friendly, his gentle eyes were always full of smiles, and he was Xixi, and people in the caravan who needed to write letters and get some contract documents came to him. Mr. Yan never shirks, and sometimes takes the initiative to help Zheng guys do the team's accounts, so he has the best popularity in the entire team.

But Ning Xiaoxian felt that this person was not simple. Because from the first time he saw him, Changtian, who was recuperating in the Gods and Demons Prison with his eyes closed, suddenly said: "This person is not simple, but he can be socialized." As for the reason, I didn't say much, but it was already remarkable to get his evaluation of "not simple", not to mention that he also thought that Ning Xiaoxian could have more contacts with him and benefit from it? Of course, this interaction is not the "seeking to communicate" written all over the network in another world, but the meaning of making friends and talking.

In the next few days, the more she and Mr. Yan came into contact, the more she felt that Changtian was right. Mr. Yan never shirks her questions and answers all questions. But the problem is that Mr. Yan knows so much that she can get answers to any question she asks. Not to mention whether these answers are standard, just to say that with her whimsical way of asking questions, Mr. Yan can actually answer fluently, which is very strange in itself.

Mr. Yan is never picky when he eats. No matter how whimsical the food Liu is, he can eat it and smile unabated. Ning Xiaoxian especially admired him for this.

The last two guests were a couple. When my husband walked out of the carriage this morning, his hair and robe were neatly combed and dressed meticulously as usual. He hurriedly fought, smiled at everyone present, and quickly walked back to the car, slamming the door shut.

This man has handsome eyebrows, a pair of peach blossom eyes, and very white skin, although his body is a little thin, but it is lining his face like powder, his lips are like grease, and he has a lot of affection between Gu Pan, which makes Ning Xiaoxian think of a word: weak willow to help the wind. This was supposed to describe the woman's posture and posture, but she always felt that it was appropriate to put it on him. Before the crossing, media reports always favored the pseudo-mother, and she maliciously believed that if this man was willing to wear women's clothes, most women would be embarrassed by his appearance.

In short, he should be the type that many seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls like. Guy Zheng, who thought he was familiar with Ning Xiaoxian, whispered in her ear one day: "Seeing him, do you have a heartbeat?"

Hearing this, Changtian in the God and Demon Prison frowned, until Ning Xiaoxian said indifferently: "He's not my dish!" Then he closed his eyes again.

The man's name was Zhang Sheng. The first time he heard this name, Ning Xiaoxian was stunned, thinking that what he had traveled through was not the fantasy fairy country, but "The Legend of the West Chamber". She teased Zhang Sheng: "Your lady shouldn't be called Cui Yingying, right?"

"You, how do you know?" Zhang Sheng's face really changed greatly, and he didn't know what he remembered, his smooth face turned a few points white with fright, and he said after a while, "The insider's name is Cui Yingying." ”

"......" author, mud! (you have enough) there should be a limit to spoofs.

However, no one in the caravan had ever seen the true face of this Cui Yingying girl, and Deng Hao, who connected to the deal, had only seen her veiled back. She shrunk in her car, never getting down and moving around, and even the food was brought back to the carriage by Zhang Sheng for her use. In this regard, Zhang Sheng's reason was that his wife suffered from eye disease and could not see the light, so she had to keep her in the car. But where are the elves in the caravan willing to believe it? The most honest speculation in private is that his wife may be a great beauty, and even Zhang Sheng does not want her to show her face.
