Entering through a gap in the stone wall, the three of them gradually returned to the same formation as when they first rushed away. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

I could actually see what was ahead from the moment I got through the gap.

As my gaze swept over the nearby figures, I knew it.

The bend in the water was the first time we stopped to rest after changing routes.

Glad that the tsundere boy carried the lighting tools.

It is difficult to find dead wood and light torches here.

The conditions are clear!

Fortunately, the boy was well prepared before this trip.

Along the way, I've been thankful for this more than once.

Although the light and illumination range are not comparable to those used in outdoor activities before the crossing, they are enough to see the road conditions in close range ahead.

The current in the passage looked like a trickle through the mountains, and its sound was far from comparable to the waterfall we had seen along the way.

"Looking at it this way, we still have to walk a long way, and we don't see a way out for the time being."

I let out a sigh of relief.

When I said this, my feelings were also a little complicated.

Although the range of light is limited, I have a certain feeling that it is not so easy to find an exit.

It's a difficult thing to get through the stone wall, and in fact, the situation would be even worse without the tsundere boy with him.

If it was just me and people like Uncle Decrepit walking in the cave passages, then the only thing I could do at the moment would be to turn back the way I came.

But this assumption is not true, because we should give up on the way just because the waterfall blocks the way.

Looking back, if it weren't for the tsundere boy who walked this passage...... I probably won't come in for him at all.

I might look for another way out of the area near the sand before I go into the cave.

In my opinion, it is unknown if it can be found, right! Didn't Uncle mention it too?

"Xiaoling, are you talking about discouragement?"

The tsundere boy looked at me when he heard this, and the corners of his lips moved, which immediately brought me back to my thoughts.

"Xiaoling, when I was training in Xilanan before, I encountered more than once a seemingly desperate scene!"

The boy turned his head to look at the section of the road we had just walked, his eyes moving over the water in the passage, and his tone was mixed with a bit of emotion.

His tone changed, and his voice raised a few points and said, "Xiaoling, it turns out that as long as you have enough willpower, you will always encounter a turnaround." ”

As I spoke, I couldn't help but turn my head to look at him.

That's right! How good is the tsundere boy in this state!

Cheering up his confused partner and cheering up his frustrated teammates is what he should do most.

The most important thing to do as the leader of a team.

It's better than the previous kind of speculating about other people's minds at every turn...... At every turn, I take advantage of my weak strength and talk about my convulsive state many times stronger!

"The eldest young master is right, borrowing your auspicious words, I just nag a few words, and it is not so easy to give up."

I smiled, shifted my gaze to Uncle Decrepit, looked at him and asked, "Have you walked through this area?" Uncle. ”

"No," the uncle frowned and muttered to himself, "this time...... The way I walked, the way I walked was a little different from what we saw when we came in this time. ”

He paused, pursed his lips and looked at me and said, "Xiaolin, I told you a long time ago, you have to believe me, what I said is the truth." ”

Uncle explained to me anxiously, I shook my head and looked at him and said, "Uncle, don't be so nervous, I didn't doubt you, just ask." ”

He hasn't even walked this road, and it should be said that he doesn't know anything about it.

The three of us are the ones who are exploring right now.

We must be cautious about the unknown road ahead, but we must not be afraid of the end, otherwise, we will not be able to move forward, so we will have to wait where we are.

If you want to make progress, you have to take some risks, and I know that better than anyone.

"Keep walking," after waiting for about a quarter of an hour, I thought I was almost rested, and there was no reason why the two men hadn't rested enough.

Before leaving, I looked at the tsundere boy and asked, "Young Master, you are injured, what if...... If you can't hold on, you can say something, and we'll stop and rest immediately. ”

Hearing this, he immediately smiled at me.

I knew that I might have to be ridiculed by him again in the next second, and said a lot of things like bragging about my physical strength.

When the alarm bell rang in my heart, I immediately made a gesture and said to Uncle Decline: "This time I'll go ahead, and you can follow in the middle." ”

Just don't give the tsundere boy a chance to say about me.

I threw down a sentence and walked to the front first, without even looking back.

...... The second time I stopped to rest, it was still at a bend in the rocks.

After walking for a long time, I slowly realized that this passage is not short.

From the time we came in through the gap in the stone wall to the present, we are still walking in the direction of the water flow in the passage.

The scenery around me hasn't changed much, which is beyond my expectations.

Looking at the mountain rock cave wall stretching all the way, it seems that there is no end.

"Young Master," I said, pausing at the head of the line, looking behind me, "I need to take a look at your wounds, and we still have to walk a long way like this." ”

I was prepared, but I wasn't a little reassured.

The only advantage is the advantage of the season.

Because of the cold weather, the wound is not easy to infect, which is a favorable condition for him.

The boy and Uncle Decrepit both stopped, and I looked at it carefully, and saw that the wounds on the boy's arms, which had been cut by stones, looked much better.

"Xiaoling, you can't trust the medicine I carry?"

The boy looked at me amusedly.

I didn't answer yet, but the decrepit uncle on the side showed a surprised look and asked, "Aren't you a ...... young master?" I've never seen such a good medicine, and my brother is also a doctor......"

His tone was solemn.

"Uncle, don't you see that this master is the eldest young master?"

I glanced at him and continued: "The children of the family are not only rich, but also have some secrets in the family. ”

"For example, a unique medicine for treating injuries, martial arts cheats and the like."

"That's right," Uncle Fu nodded seriously, "even in places like Nanhua Town, there are big families who have these sayings. ”

I nodded in agreement, but I didn't expect that in the next second, the uncle said something that made people speechless.

The uncle said, "It's okay to pass on the prescription, and some say that they even have a secret recipe for giving birth to a son!" ”

Where is this?

Hearing this, I almost didn't choke, and looked at my uncle in a daze, I didn't understand how this person could say such a sentence!

"There are no such crooked and evil people in my family, otherwise I won't be ......," the young man subconsciously answered, and he seemed to feel that the answer was not appropriate.

He stood up and looked at Uncle Decrepit and said in an unhappy tone, "What are you doing with that, just keep going if it's okay!" ”

I don't think he meant to reproach me a little bit, blaming me for bringing up weird topics.

But he obviously didn't want to lose his temper with me, and the anger was directed to Uncle Decline.

"Don't be in such a hurry, just take a break and then hurry."

"Young Master, there's something I want to ask you."

After thinking about it, I suddenly remembered a question that I had been thinking about for a long time, and I was going to take advantage of this time to bring it up to hear the explanation of the tsundere boy.

To reverse the current and somewhat embarrassing situation, it is better to get back to the point!

"Master, we want to go to the Northland...... I wonder what the princess is like, isn't there a war between the two sides? ”

I'd love to hear the other side of the tsundere boy's narrative.

Although I know that his territory is in the south of Xilan, since even Suzhou has his family's mansion, the power representing the Yuwen family has slowly infiltrated into the north.

It's no surprise that any merchant who has made his business big is always easy to hear some gossip in various places.

At that time, the speed of message transmission was not slower than that of the people in the yamen.

Although their family has a monopoly on one side in the south of Zealand and has an absolute sphere of influence, it does not mean that they know nothing about the Northland!

The boy raised an eyebrow and looked at me with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

I am very familiar with his expression, and when I saw this, I looked at him generously and said, "Curiosity, I always want to know more, since you know, why don't you tell us." ”

Uncle Decrepit on one side also cast his gaze, staring at the tsundere boy with both pairs of eyes, waiting for him to solve our puzzles.

He lowered his head and thought about it, and asked me, "Xiaoling, what do you want to know about?" ”

If he can ask this question, it means that he is willing to talk to me.

I was happy in my heart, and hurriedly said to him: "If you can say anything, just tell us about it, I am willing to listen." ”

For people outside of Sealand, the country is somewhat mysterious.

I think I knew this place at the beginning, it was nothing more than an encounter on the street, which would have the relationship between the emperor and the emperor going out on a parade.

I stumbled upon someone under her on the street, and when I asked Yun Chu about it, I learned something about Sealand.

I have the impression that because it is the place where the empress is in power, I feel that it has a special meaning, so when I have the opportunity to go to Sealand, I came with greater curiosity.

I used to look at the map of Sealand.

Sealand's territory is not small, except for the southernmost and northernmost places, most of them look quite livable.

In fact, I have also heard rumors about the empress's sister who is the princess who is about to go to war with her.

...... I talked to people about this when I was approaching the border of Sealand.

At that time, it was the scene of Sealand buying supplies from neighboring countries and transporting them to China, and I thought it was very strange when I learned about it.

It is my impression that, apart from the northernmost and southernmost parts of the country which are less suitable for farming, there is a considerable area of Sealand that is suitable for climate.

It should be said that the Sealand people are very self-sufficient, and they still need to buy from neighboring countries.

At that time, the shopkeeper of the inn told me that the current monarch of Sealand and the position of the empress were not so peaceful.

mentioned that her sister left the palace a few years ago and occupied a corner in Sealand and had her own power.

At that time, the innkeeper told me that the place was the most fertile plain, but now it seems that this is not accurate.

After all, it's not from Sealand, so I don't know that much.

For, as far as I know, the position she occupies is an extremely narrow stretch of land, separated by mountains.

The southern end is bordered by Sealand's eastern borders, and the northern side is where we are headed.

If you look at the map, the princess occupies a narrow area in the northeastern part of Sealand.

The land under her rule is indeed rich in plains, but there are also bitter cold places in the north with complex terrain.

The problem is that the two sides are fighting, not the south, that area of the plains, they are actually fighting for the northernmost area, it seems that something is wrong!

If I put myself in my shoes, I will inevitably think that there is something unusual about this area, which attracts both sides to rush to it!

The message I wanted to know from the tsundere boy was the area of my mind that put a question mark.

Where is the Northland good, and what are you going to fight for?!

"Xiaoling, how many have you heard about that princess before?"

The boy looked at me and asked with a smile on his lips.

"That's a lot, I won't tell you."

My voice sounded in the cave passage, accompanied by the sound of water, and I told the tsundere boy all the information I had known.

This process of narration also unconsciously attracted Uncle Decline's attention, and even he participated.

He had been in Nanhua Town for a long time, and the two sides were about to go to war, and people who passed by the town would mention some of them every day.

So all the news came together, and he must know more than I did.

The boy listened to the story, occasionally frowning, and according to his expression, it may be that some of the details were different from what he knew.

"Young Master, we've almost finished what we know, now it's time for you to solve our puzzles."

...... About a few miles away from the town is a mountain range that winds through the official road.

It is close to the river, but it is already the frozen season, and it is rare to see fishermen along the river.

The villagers in this area are extremely busy as the New Year approaches.

They would take their home-pickled mountain goods, picked mushrooms, and dried fish to the town to sell.

The money from the sale is exchanged for the things you need back home, and also for the items you need to prepare for the New Year.

The tea shed next to the official road provides some rough tea and hungry snacks to satisfy the temporary rest of passers-by.

At this time, most of the people who stay in the tea shed to drink tea are nearby mountain people.

At dawn, the mountain goods were transported to the town passing by the tea shed.

When I came back from running errands in the town, it was the peak period of a stopover.

Occasionally, there are often some ordinary business trips mixed in.

The old couple in the tea shed is doing the business of these people.

As for the more expensive guests, they would never stay in such a place.

With such a humble tea shed, they must not be able to look at it. (To be continued.) )
