Chapter 223: How much power

"I remember we happened to be passing through a crossroads at that time!"

After Qian Hao said this, Shen Jun did recall it. At that time, they wandered the streets at night with nothing to do. Then, when passing through an intersection, Shen Jun chose to move forward without saying a word. Then, Qian Hao followed.

That's what happened, and Shen Jun didn't know what to remember about it.

"When you're about to go through an intersection, you don't choose to turn, you just go straight ahead. Maybe it's this one that makes me think that Shen Jun, you are still a person who will choose to move forward bravely in whatever you do, rather than choose to turn around and escape. That's why I think you'll definitely follow us!"

Such a large paragraph of words entered Shen Jun's ears, and he immediately let out a drunken smile, "Ah! It turns out that Qian Hao still understands me like this! Then I have a brother like you, then I have no regrets in this life!"

"Well, don't say that! What I said before was just my guess. What do you think in your heart, then you have to ask yourself!" Qian Hao shook his hand 'embarrassedly'.

Shen Jun was about to respond to something, but Shen Mengting's throat-breaking words suddenly came.

"Okay, I've decided! Let's go this way!" Shen Mengting's voice almost made everyone in the team who had relaxed tense again.

By the time all eyes were on her, she had left the tree she had leaned on and had come to the center of the crowd. The distinctive feature of this woman is that she is in season in the center of the crowd, and the people in the team have long been used to it.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Compared to the others standing still, Qian Hao slowly approached Shen Mengting.

Shen Mengting immediately shook the map in her hand, "I just looked at the map and found the best way!"

"Oh, that's it!" After walking to Shen Mengting's side, Qian Hao looked at the map.

"Look!" Shen Mengting deliberately unfolded the map and explained it in front of Qian Hao, "This is the road! As long as we follow this road, we can arrive at Qingse City in about a week!"

"Oh, it's only been a week! That's pretty fast! But ......" Qian Hao seemed to think of something, so he tilted his head and thought about it.

"It's only been a week to arrive?" Shen Jun also walked over slowly after hearing the time, "Why can it be so short! This shouldn't be! I've lived in Gunma Town for so long, and I've never heard of a week to be able to go to Kiyose Castle!"

"Yes, I think it should take two weeks!" Qian Hao said, touching his chin.

"I didn't say it would be in a week. I'm just saying that if you follow the route I said, it won't take two weeks, or about a week, and you can get there!" Shen Mengting emphasized the words 'about a week'.

"Which way is it?"

Because she was holding the map in both hands, Shen Mengting couldn't use her hands to point the route on the map. In desperation, she had to bend down and spread the map flat on the ground.

"Look! this is the road!" When her hands were freed, Shen Mengting also pointed around the map competently.

As Shen Mengting's center of gravity lowered, the two big men, Qian Hao and Shen Jun, also knelt on one knee to the ground together.

"What? you said this?" Following Shen Mengting's fingers, Shen Jun saw a winding path.

"Sure, what's the problem?"

"This road is a bit dangerous! I heard that there are a lot of wild beasts along the way!"

"I know that, but I can't help it! We've been delaying for a while!"

"I'm sorry! I have something to mention!" Although Shen Jun was currently asking Shen Mengting a question, his face unconsciously looked at Qian Haolai, "You have been emphasizing that you have been delaying for a long time. So I want to ask, how long have you been delaying? I'm so curious!"

"Do you ask me how long I delay?" Shen Mengting paused slightly, "I almost forgot the specific time." However, since accepting the task, it has almost ...... It's been a month and a half!"

"What? it's been a month and a half?" Shen Jun looked stunned. He also looked at Qian Hao again, considering the accuracy of the information.

Qian Hao could not answer this question, because he also intervened in the middle of the team.

Zhao Yu, who was still in the distance, could answer. Because, the day he received the mission to escape from Vortex Town was also the day his mother was murdered.

It's been a month and a half, and I remember that Zhao Yu still felt that the weather was quite warm at that time. Now the atmosphere of the whole season is almost winter.

"Yes! I remember the first time I received the assignment was in late October. It's December!"

"This ...... This ......"

"What's wrong with you?

"No...... No...... I just think ......" Shen Jun was a little speechless, and he blinked dryly a few times.

If it is really as Shen Mengting said, it has been a month and a half. I don't know if they'll be able to return to Kiyose Castle. Today's Sauron Empire must be stepping up preparations for war. It is estimated that as soon as they arrived in the national capital to stop the troops, the enemy's army had already invaded on the back foot.

"What do you think?"

"I ......" gave Qian Hao a quick look, and Shen Jun still decided to release the words in his heart. I saw him quickly roll his eyes upward, revealing a sharp breath from it, "If so much time has passed, then Sauron's side must also take action!"

Shen Jun's words can be said to have hit Shen Mengting's heart directly. No, it should be said that everyone here seems to have been stabbed in the chest by this sentence. What Shen Jun said was not wrong at all. Since the Sauron Empire had already known about Shen Mengting and her group's movements a few months ago. Then, at present, that country will definitely fight back. But now more than a month has passed, and there is no sound from there.

What's going on here?

Soon, Shen Mengting discovered the problem.

She had been adrift for a long time, and it could be said that she hadn't returned to Kiyose Castle for months. What was going on in Kiyose Castle was almost completely unclear to her. In other words, the news she's getting now is very, very late.

No! No! Time has really dragged on for a long time! We must hurry to Qingse City! With such an idea, Shen Mengting immediately ordered everyone to continue on their way.

"Do you want us to continue on our way?" Qian Hao was still so surprised. It seems that every move of Shen Mengting will make him have a lot of doubts.

"Exactly! We've really been dragging on for a long time. Originally, I wanted to leave Arakawa Town and go straight to Kiyose Castle as soon as possible. Who would have thought that there would be so many emergencies along the way. Therefore, we can't delay any longer, we must arrive at Qingse City within ten days!" Shen Mengting's tone revealed determination.

This woman's words are not wrong, in fact, Qian Hao himself is also very anxious. However, having said that, he thinks the specific route still needs to be considered by the team.

"I know! You're very anxious right now! But if you're anxious in fear, it will only affect your brain's judgment! So, I think the specific route will have to be discussed again!" Qian Hao was speaking, and habitually sorted out the longbow he was carrying.

"No need to discuss! this is the route!" Shen Mengting pointed vigorously on the map again. Her index finger also followed a virtual route depicted on the map to the location of Kiyose Castle, "This route I spent a few hours in the hotel last night. I just think that's the best way to go!"

"Oh! Look at you! Why can't you just listen to your teammates a bit? I'm just going to say what I think!"

"Okay! Qian Hao, since you want to say something about it. So I'm going to ask, which road do you think is the most convenient way to Kiyose Castle?"

was asked by Shen Mengting like this, Qian Hao was like being knocked on a stick. The panic caused him to be unable to speak clearly, and could only confuse indistinct and staccato sentences.

"I ...... I ......"

"Is this really the only route that is the best?" Shen Jun also extended his finger to the map on the ground, "although this road is indeed the closest. But as far as I know, it's not that safe! Not to mention the beasts, there are too many broken roads next door. In other words, the road may be even harder!"

"But now!" Shen Mengting's head gradually raised, her eyes full of helplessness, "This road is the fastest and the most hidden. I have confidence in my own strength, and I have never been afraid of those wild beasts walking in the wilderness, let alone walking on the Gobi!

Shen Mengting's tone was so firm that the rest of the people were shocked.

Then there was a long silence, in which no one spoke, but only the movements of you looking at me and looking at you.

After a long time, the silence was still broken by Qian Hao, who seemed to be the best at doing this kind of thing.

"If you insist on this, then I will still stand firmly on your side!"

As soon as Qian Hao's words were revealed, Shen Jun was surprised. He stared straight at Qian Hao, and his mind was full of certain remarks about Qian Hao's distrust of women.

"Women are a species with long hair and short knowledge, and I, Qian Hao, will never trust them. In the future, if you are in a team, this suggestion is made by a woman. I'm so sorry, I, Qian Hao, won't abide by it no matter what!"

But now, the woman named Shen Mengting firmly holds Qian Hao's heart. What a powerful method this is! Shen Jun himself couldn't help but begin to admire Shen Mengting.

There was only one question on his mind at the moment: how capable was this woman? Not only could she unite and unite the team, but she also dared to decisively complete some tasks that seemed impossible to outsiders!

Now standing in the way of this woman is a terrible empire that is inevitably discolored in the entire Celos race. But she didn't have a trace of evasion, and chose to face it head-on without giving in. Now, Shen Jun knows the reason why Qian Hao joined this team, and this woman must be one of the factors.

"Yes, thank you for agreeing to my suggestion. What about the others!" As she spoke, Shen Mengting stood up. She looked at Shen Jun with a sharp eye.

Shen Jun was a little reluctant in his heart, but he still nodded obediently.

"Well, okay!" Shen Mengting naturally responded with a nod. After that, she set her eyes on Jiang Jingwen and Zhao Yu in the distance.

Needless to say, the two of them only nodded their heads.

"Since we have all agreed, then we will hit the road immediately!" I saw Shen Mengting take a deep breath, and there was a great momentum to use the overwhelming momentum, "Our time is very tight now. I hope to officially set foot on the land of Kiyose Castle within ten days!"

Under Shen Mengting's order, the other four all said the word 'good' with great momentum.

So, everyone officially embarked on the road again. According to them, they only had a little more than ten minutes to rest.

Shen Mengting was the first to walk briskly towards her mount. Her movements did not drag the mud and water at all, she directly pulled the reins of the horse, and immediately stepped on the horse, "Let's go!"

Seeing this, the others also walked to their mounts.

Qian Hao was just about to step on the brown horse when he heard Shen Jun muttering in a low voice next to him.

"Oh yes, what a domineering woman!"

Turning around, Qian Hao saw Shen Jun, who was also leading the horse. Shen Jun is currently smiling. It's just that his smile is full of thief laughter.

Seeing his brother's appearance, Qian Hao was naturally unceremoniously, "Hey, I said, what's the matter with your cheap dog? Did you eat the wrong thing? Why do you smile like this?"

"Haha! Am I smiling?"

"You—say—what?"

"Oh yes, why are you talking like that! I'm just here to talk to you about something!"

Seeing that the smile on Shen Jun's face weakened, Qian Hao moved closer a little, "Hey, what are you going to say?"

Shen Jun first glanced at Shen Mengting in the distance, and then instantly pressed his head towards Qian Hao's location, "Has this woman's temper always been bad?"

Qian Hao's face suddenly seemed to be covered with a layer of embarrassment, "Ah! You only know now!"

"Oh! I have some sympathy for you in that case!" Shen Jun deliberately pulled the reins of the horse in his hand. In this case, the horse he was holding also lowered his head.

"What are you doing with me? I think you'd better mind yourself!"

"Yo, what are you angry about?"

"How can I be angry?" Qian Hao's face was still so angry, "I just put my current thoughts on the road." That's why I'm a little irritable!"

"Is that so?"

"Hey, why are you talking so much! Since you know that woman's temper, then you have to be clear!" Qian Hao raised a finger and pointed sharply at the tip of Shen Jun's nose, "You have suffered some along the way." I think you better endure it slowly!"

"Oh!

"It's the truth!"

"But!" Shen Jun's rather slippery tone was mixed with a sense of seriousness, "although this woman's temper is not good." But I can see it! She's not an idle person!"

"Wow!" Qian Hao was obviously a little surprised, "You can only see it now! why do you think I wanted to follow her in the first place!"

"I know that, but now I'm finally seeing what she's capable of. She's a very amazing woman!...... perhaps" Shen Jun raised his head and looked at Shen Mengting, who was already riding on horseback. Now the woman is still talking to the other two children, "Maybe one day she can really be some great person!"

"I still need you to say this, I can see it a long time ago!"

"Well, Qian Hao! There's something I've wanted to ask you for a long time. Shen Jun regained his original sense of thief smile, "On business, I kind of know the reason why you followed her." But there's one more thing! and that's ...... related to private matters. Remember what I said to you last night? To that woman......"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't say anything!" Qian Hao's demeanor had begun to be a little unstable.

"Hey, I'm just talking! Why are you so excited!"

"You ......"

"Hey, what are the two men doing there?"

At the moment when Qian Hao and Shen Jun were fighting most fiercely, Shen Mengting's roar rushed over. Not only did she shake the laughter of the two big men, but she also forcibly made them feel anxious like a spur.

"I said I was going to hurry, why did I still stay where I was!" Shen Mengting's roar continued.

"Hey, just said it! I just understood her temper!" Shen Jun quickly pulled the horse away from Qian Hao.

Qian Hao also muttered casually, "I think you'd better get on the horse first and then talk about it!"

In this way, Shen Jun and Qian Hao also got on their respective horses.

Seeing that everyone in the team had already mounted their horses, Shen Mengting also took a deep breath peacefully, "Okay!

"Ready! Sister Mengting!" Jiang Jingwen will always be the one who responds first.

"Okay, let's ......" Shen Mengting tugged at the reins of the horse, and then glanced into the distance. The direction she was aiming at now was naturally about the location of Kiyose Castle to the north, "Just follow this direction, and run towards Kiyose Castle in one go!"

"But!"

"Okay!"

"It's ready for a long time!"

Seeing her companion agreeing so happily, Shen Mengting couldn't help but smile, "Hey! Don't promise too early! I'll give you a heads up. In order to get to our destination faster, I expect that in the next few days, we will have to keep on the road without looking back, and the rest time in between may be numbered!...... You've suffered a lot!"

"What about hardship?" Qian Hao pulled the reins of his horse, and the horse he was riding turned around. Then, he controlled the horse and slowly walked to the same level as Shen Mengting, "Since I followed you on the mission, I am ready to endure hardships!"

"I hope for this answer!"

"Okay, I said this capable female swordsman! Let's hurry up and give the order, let's hurry!" Shen Jun also impatiently 'urged'.

So, Shen Mengting quickly shook her head towards the front, "Okay!

With her command, the five horses galloped forward.

Running into the distance, the scorching sun in the sky seemed to cheer them up, and the road ahead seemed to pave them with the glory of the past.

In this way, they continued to approach their destination. It seems that Kiyose Castle is already beckoning to them.

I'll be there right away - Shen Mengting drove her horse to the forefront, shouting the word 'driving' from time to time.
