Chapter Ninety-Eight: On the Way to the East

Yi Xingchen followed the team and slowly walked into the dense forest, this was the first time he was in such a primitive environment, a little nervous, and a little curious. Okay-if-book-let's

Since the dark forest does not see sunlight all year round, it is almost a dark enclosed space, overgrown with weeds and damp. Walking into the dense forest, Yi Xingchen could clearly hear all kinds of strange insects and birds, sometimes sharp, sometimes low. Sometimes there would be a burst of howls that I don't know if it was a beast, and if it wasn't for someone accompanying me, it is estimated that anyone who is in it will be extremely nervous.

Yi Xingchen originally had some desire to see the environment clearly, but when he walked in the dense forest for five hours in a row, he began to feel a little dull in his chest, as if he was blocked by something.

In the dense forest, due to the relatively closed environment, no sunlight, poor air circulation, and humid environment, it is particularly easy to produce fog and even miasma, which has a great impact on the human body. Fortunately, whether it is Allen, Mu En and other nationals of Xinghua Kingdom, or Orion in Huangling Village, Zhao Jin, who has now become a temporary resident of Xinghua Kingdom, has rich experience in crossing dense forests. With their companionship and guidance, Yi Xingchen will not be in danger.

Based on their experience, Yi Xingchen put a piece of cloth on his mouth and nose, which can effectively reduce miasma inhalation and prevent the entrance of flying insects.

At this time, Yi Xingchen secretly wrote down the goods to be replenished in Blue Mercury - he had to purchase a batch of gas masks. If it weren't for the fact that he had never experienced such a thing, I am afraid that he would have prepared it early and joined this batch of goods.

In the dense forest, it is extremely difficult to find the direction. In this case, experience is especially important. For experienced hunters, they can still judge the general direction based on the growth rings of some trees and some special ways of surviving in the wild. Also, Mu En and the others walked back and forth, and in some important places, some rock signs were placed, which also helped this time.

As Yi Xingchen walked, he was thinking about an idea-he needed to completely fix the entire trade route from Xinghua Kingdom to the East and Leaving the Country. Therefore, for these rock markings of Muen and them, he consciously made the caravan reinforced and made it more conspicuous, so that it would be easier to follow up on this matter in the future. In addition, while Yi Xingchen was moving forward with the caravan, he also inspected with Mu En and them along the road from time to time to see if there was a suitable place to build a temporary stop, so that a simple stop could be built at the stop.

At this station, Yi Xingchen plans to build some buildings suitable for human beings to stay and rest. For example, the log cabin can store some wood and dry food to make it easier for caravans or hunters to hide from the rain, and there are directional signs indicating the location of Xinghua City. If the weather is bad or people are tired, you can also take a break inside and continue on the road.

It's just that the focus of going out of the city this time is not to establish and consolidate this trade route, so Yi Xingchen only let the caravan spend the shortest time to build an uninhabited cabin in the middle of the dense forest.

At this stage, this small cabin can only be left empty, and no one can be arranged to live and guard it for a long time. As for the construction of a stronghold to be managed by a special person, it can be done leisurely in the future. Now, the Forgotten Valley and its surroundings are infested with wild beasts, and if they are left to guard the stronghold, and there are not enough of them, they can easily fall prey to the beasts.

This situation also made Yi Xingchen realize that only when the Xinghua Kingdom was prosperous and powerful to a certain extent, could the trade road and the surrounding beasts be cleaned up, and it was possible to establish a stronghold with guards and establish a safe trade route.

The Xinghua merchant group walked in the dense forest for more than ten hours before they walked out of the dense forest. As soon as he left the dense forest, Yi Xingchen suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment, and saw the sunshine that he had not seen for a long time.

At this time, the sun was fierce in the sky, the white clouds were slowly floating like cotton, the ground was full of rocks, sparse weeds, and in front of me, a rugged hill path appeared. What you see in front of you is a world of difference from the dense forest.

"Is this the East Departure Country?" Yi Xingchen couldn't help but ask.

Mu En replied with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is indeed the East Country, and if you walk a day and a night, you will arrive at our Xinghua Manor." ”

Yi Xingchen was slightly stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of sleepiness in his heart, how could there be a day and a night to go.

"Okay, let's keep up the good work and try to get to our destination as soon as possible. As the king, even if Yi Xingchen is tired, he can't complain out loud and hit the morale of the people.

"Your Majesty, please get on the horse!" Alan led a horse and walked in front of Yi Xingchen.

Yi Xingchen replied with a smile: "The horses are left to Captain Muen!"

When Mu En heard this, he immediately refused: "Absolutely not! Your Majesty, you are a noble king, and you should ride a horse!"

"I can't watch the elder walk, but I ride a horse safely!" Yi Xingchen shook his head and said, insisting on refusing to ride a horse.

In order to ensure the transportation of goods, horses are used to transport goods, and when they come out of Xinghua City, everyone is on foot, and Yi Xingchen is no exception. But at this time, it has been a long time, and Alan and the others are very worried that Yi Xingchen will not be physically strong and cannot afford the harm to his body from the long journey, so they moved the goods slightly and freed up a horse, hoping that Yi Xingchen could use it to travel.

"His Majesty doesn't ride horses, and I don't ride them!" insisted Muen, "bring the horses back and load them with goods." ”

After some pushing, Mu En was reluctant to ride a horse, and Yi Xingchen insisted that he didn't need to ride a horse, so Alan could only lead the horse back and reload the goods.

Walking out of the dense forest, the Xinghua caravan took a short break and continued to move forward.

The procession of the Xinghua merchant group first headed southeast, and two hours later, they came across a small road.

"Your Majesty, this road is the way to the land of the Hundred Barbarians. Mu En pointed to a mountain road less than one meter wide and said, "Follow this road, go northeast, and go all the way down, which is Huangling Village." ”

Yi Xingchen nodded, he understood what Mu En meant.

The last time the merchant group left the country from the east, and when they returned to Xinghua City, in order to avoid the people who left the country from the east to track them and know the location of Xinghua City, the merchant group deliberately disguised themselves and made a detour to the Western Regions from the land of the hundred barbarians. This time I turned my head back to the east, and I must also pay attention to the disguise a little. This is for the sake of Xinghua business groups to gain a foothold in the East and leave the country, so as to facilitate the corner of the East and leave the country and develop with peace of mind.

Walking on the path, Yi Xingchen suddenly noticed that there was a black spot in the sky in the distance, which was gradually flying closer to their caravan. When Allen saw Yi Xingchen's strange appearance, he also subconsciously raised his head and followed Yi Xingchen's gaze. If it's like a book, read the home of books!
