When they opened their eyes, they had already come to a small mountain village called Huailing, a remote village in Wuliu Town, but not far from the boundary of Shangjing. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Most of the convoy was full of wounded members of the Nagakatsu Army, and because it was getting late, it was difficult to travel on the mountain road to transport the coffin of the Shogunate, so they had to find a small village nearby to spend the night.

I don't know what's going on, this small mountain village is full of old people, the young and the young don't know where they went, Chang Shengjun only planned to stay for one night, so he didn't pay special attention, the small village is mostly young people who go to the town to find work.

Tao Jiaoge made a generous move, took two silver taels to the village chief to prepare dinner, and the villagers who got the benefits were so happy that they couldn't see their teeth, and soon helped Changshengjun who was camping to prepare dinner.

Mu Tianen, who came to his senses, was really alive, his eyes were smart and full of spirit, but he was not as depressed as those days, and when he saw it, he was very grateful to the young man who suddenly appeared in the army, so he was also very polite to Tao Jiaoge.

"Major General, the last general is in charge of his own affairs, stay here tonight, and hurry back to Beijing tomorrow. Tao Gongzi turned the entire army into a caravan to Beijing, and the wounded were divided into three groups, and the unwounded guards disguised themselves as merchants and entered Beijing from three directions. So far, there has been no danger signal, it should not have attracted the pursuing soldiers, the last general believes that this Huailing Mountain Village is dangerous, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack with the back of the mountain, so it is a good choice for staying overnight. ”

Going back and forth is the captain of the personal guard to the left, listening to his clear analysis at the moment, Mu Tianen nodded appreciatively, and called out his name as soon as he opened his mouth: "Captain Xiang Zuo has worked hard for you, these **** injuries are inconvenient, if there is anything that can't be decided, ask Tao Gongzi by yourself." ”

Hearing Mu Tianen's order, he was stunned for a while, knowing that this Tao Gongzi was only afraid that his status in the heart of the prince would not be low, so he respectfully greeted Tao Jiaoge and retreated.

The campfire of the army is not extinguished at night, and the firewood is not added by the soldiers who keep vigil, and the fire shines brightly on the temporary station of the entire Changsheng Army, and the night night in early autumn, even if it is hot and dry during the day, when the night breeze blows at night, it also adds a touch of cool autumn feeling.

Today's vigil was a few firehead troops, and in the battle outside Wuliu Town that night, the firehead army with no combat effectiveness was protected in the innermost, so the one with the smallest casualties was this team with no combat effectiveness.

Because of the proximity to Shangjing, the entire Changsheng army relaxed a little from exhaustion, and Xiang Zuo agreed to the voluntarily of the Huotou army and let them keep vigil in this safe small mountain village.

At the third watch, the sound of tired birds returning to their nests is heard from time to time in the mountains and forests, and the breeze blows through the sound of countless locust leaves, and the sharp birdsong is very obvious in such a quiet mountain village.

Xiaoshan couldn't help but shrink his neck, and he couldn't wait to stuff his thin and small self into his military uniform before he stopped, which was naturally ridiculed by the big fat chef who kept vigil together.

"Xiaoshan, it's not a fat brother, I'm laughing at you, you're still so thin at the age of eighteen, your mother really has to worry about you not being able to marry a daughter-in-law."

The big fat chef is the chef of the entire Changsheng Army, making delicious cauldron dishes, even in the process of marching, he can always use the least and most simple ingredients to make a meal that satisfies the soldiers.

"Fat brother, don't you say that this small mountain village is strange, I see that those old people are all lifeless during the day, and there is no child in the whole village!"

Xiaoshan knew that the big fat chef liked to joke about himself, but he took care of himself the most on weekdays, so he was not ashamed of him making jokes about his marriage, but shrunk his neck and sat closer to the big fat chef.

When Xiaoshan said this, the big fat chef furrowed two thick and thick eyebrows, and after thinking about it carefully, he said: "I see that the boundary of Shangjing is not far from here, and the land is really barren, mostly mountainous land rather than farmland that can be cultivated. ”

After speaking, the big fat chef pouted in disbelief, and thought that Chang Shengjun was about to leave anyway, and it was none of his business to care about what he was doing, so he waved his hand and interrupted what Xiaoshan was about to say, and sat down a little farther away by the fire.

Xiaoshan didn't want to listen to it when he saw the big fat chef, but he muttered in his heart, obviously it is the autumn harvest period, so will there be other people's strong men to work in the city to subsidize?

But seeing the big fat chef dozing off little by little, Xiaoshan was depressed, and looked at the fire in a daze, he was the youngest, and the others were sleepy, he couldn't sleep.

Just listening to the rumors of the small mountain village, Xiaoshan shrunk his neck and suddenly heard a child's cry, he opened his big eyes, blinked in astonishment, and on his thin little cheeks, a pair of eyes appeared unusually large.

The sound of the child's crying came for a while, and it seemed very strange in the dark night of the mountain village, Xiaoshan blinked his big eyes and was stiff and couldn't move, but suddenly he heard a scream again, and he floated from a distance in a trance, but the sound seemed a little ethereal, very unreal.

Xiaoshan was finally frightened to a critical point, jumped up with a scream, pounced on the big fat chef in the back, grabbed his fat arm and stumbled: "Fat brother, fat brother, there are ghosts!" ”

The big fat chef was sleepy and sweet, and was suddenly woken up by Xiaoshan, and when he heard him shouting something, he was unhappy in his heart, and pushed Xiaoshan away and said: "Don't make noise, if you quarrel again, you will be stewed, and you will become a ghost." ”

Xiao Shan shuddered for a moment, knowing that the big fat chef was angry, so he didn't dare to look at him again, and looked at the fire head army around him, all of them slept sweetly, and no one heard the strange shouts.

Xiaoshan sat near the fire in fear, hoping that the light could dispel the fear in his heart, but he could always hear the cries of children from time to time, or the frightened screams of adults, and the whole person shrank like a quail, but his heart gradually became a little curious about the dark mountains and forests in the distance, what was it that made such a sound?

At some point, the hill was slowly approaching the edge of the forest, and if he took three more steps, he would be able to walk into the dark forest and find out.

"Don't go in."

A low and hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind Xiao Shan, Xiao Shan was so frightened that he screamed, the voice was heartbreaking, Tao Jiaoge couldn't help but pluck out his ears.

She saw that Xiaoshan was trembling and was about to hand it up, so she couldn't help but reach out and put her hand on Xiaoshan's shoulder, trying to hold him steady, but when she saw Xiaoshan, she was so frightened that she simply rolled her eyes and fainted.

Tao Jiaoge pulled the corners of her lips helplessly, how did such a timid soldier get into the Changsheng Army?

But......

Looking at the dense dark forest in front of him, Tao Jiaoge frowned deeply.
