Chapter 103: The Strange Leader

The sound of the flute in the night is intermittent and tugging at people's heartstrings.

The sound of the flute is like the wind blowing in March, gently and slowly, slowly seeping in, one is not paying attention, and his mind has been hooked.

The cadres listened attentively, and all of them were quiet in their own hearts.

I was the quickest to get out, and I was full of thoughts about where our young master had gone, and I broke free and woke up.

Looking back at the few people behind me, the expressions on their faces were different, with a little dazed in their eyes, I was surprised, what, this flute sound is still weird.

In an instant, a sharp blade flew from the sky, cutting through the night, and the thunder had broken the "boom" of an ancient tree next to the carriage.

The sound that broke through the air interfered with Xiao Yin, and the ninth princess and Tianfang regained their clear expressions in an instant.

"Demon barrier, magic barrier," in the laughter, Chen Yuqing's flat face leaned over, admired my expression with satisfaction, and said, "Almost landed, right?" ”

He couldn't hide the smugness between his eyebrows, and turned to the carriageway behind a slowly approaching carriageway: "It's you every time, it's a good thing to hurt me, I still want to see what these people will do next?" ”

"Enough is enough."

Yun Chu got off the carriage, frowned at him, and walked straight towards me, seeing that there were only a few steps left, and when the clothes and belts were swinging, I was pulled by him, and he looked at Chen Yuqing unhappily, as if he was silently accusing him.

The latter immediately took a few more steps back to our side, and Yun Chu nodded with satisfaction.

"Yuqing, you go to explore the way, can you find a guide?" Yun Chu opened me lightly with his hand, straightened the folds on my clothes by the way, and looked directly at Chen Yuqing.

"What am I," Chen Yuqing smiled. Turning his head and glancing at the dense mountains and forests, he said proudly, "Come on." ”

I was surprised in my heart, listening to the conversation between the two of them, it seems that this trip to Hongdong Cliff to capture Cangyan also found helpers, except for the elusive people around Chen Yuqing, I don't know what kind of people he found.

I saw the Ninth Princess and Lan Tianfang look at each other in some surprise, but they didn't say anything.

The atmosphere was somewhat quiet, and there were a few dog barks faintly at the other end of the mountain road.

I glanced at Chen Yuqing and said, "Could it be that you found a few dogs to lead the way for us." However, the section of the rock is connected to the cave by waterway. ”

Chen Yuqing didn't answer my words, Yun Chu looked down at me and smiled slightly: "Xiao Ling'er, we won't follow the path that the Ninth Princess took before." I discussed with Yuqing and took the mountain road instead, from the dense forest in the west to the Cangyan, that part of the road took some time, but we both thought it was safer than going directly by water. ”

"Is it possible?" The Ninth Princess spoke up.

"Why not?" Chen Yuqing raised her eyebrows and smiled. "As long as the purpose is the same, it is naturally okay to go no way."

He grinned and broke a branch from a rock, and raised his hand to slash into the deep night air, and the fire flashed like a meteor in the branches, and a bird fell from the sky.

I looked closely. Good fellow, the branch goes straight through the bird, it's bad luck. ran into Chen Yuqing, a killer star.

He stooped down, picked up the bird, stripped it of its fur, forked it with a branch, and roasted it on the fire.

The blue sky on the side is like this. Not idle, the two of them hunted a few birds one after another. All are disposed of and put on the fire.

The barking of the dog was near, and a thin figure finally appeared on the other side of the col.

The figure approached slowly, it was a little gray-haired old man, and when I observed the man, it seemed that his legs and feet were a little inconvenient, because he walked a little staggering.

As we got closer, I finally saw the man.

I was a little surprised, because I saw the man's gray hair before, and I thought it was a little old man, but when I got closer, I realized that the man was actually not very old.

Look at a person's age, nothing more than hair, skin, body shape, and so on.

The person in front of him, although he had gray hair, his skin was very tight, which was the texture of a young man, probably because of the mountain people, and he was a little tanned.

He approached us with a blank face and nodded his head as a salute.

I looked at his face, a pair of eyes that were shiny and dark, and under such a gaze, people couldn't help but ignore the impression he gave people before.

Yun Chu didn't care about his rudeness, but nodded with satisfaction, and looked behind him, a small shadow slowly approached us, naturally the voice we heard earlier.

I couldn't help but laugh in my heart: This dog is so interesting, ordinary dogs follow their owners out, shouldn't they be exploring the way ahead? Why is it still such a big shelf, unhurriedly following behind the master.

When I saw the dog, I almost didn't laugh out loud.

The dog's body shape was very peculiar, and it felt as if it had been clamped by the door panel, and it was particularly flattened.

One person and one dog, both are a little weird.

I looked closely at the clothes that the man was wearing, and I thought it was very strange, his clothes were a little tattered, his arms felt as if they had been cut by tree branches, the slightest strand of rags were there, and the exposed arm muscles were exceptionally strong, which did not match his whole feeling.

Anyway, this guy looks, uh...... It's very unharmonious!

There was a fragrance from the fire, and Chen Yuqing keenly tore open the unlucky bird and threw half of it away.

He didn't even say hello, but the person quickly caught it and gnawed it, Chen Yuqing told us that his name was Ah Si, and he was the hunter who lived in the mountain forest of Hongdong Cliff that he found, and he went to capture Cangyan and give us a guide.

…… Early in the morning, the mountains were still filled with fog that could not be dispersed, I woke up from my dream, I did not know when there was an extra coat on my body, I leaned in and took a deep breath, full of good smell.

The mountain road is rugged, we are two hours later than the scheduled departure time, because Xiaoru's feet are very swollen, we have to leave her here, this kind of injury, even if it is used with elixir, it is not good for three or five days, it is obviously not appropriate to take her to capture Cangyan together, but it is really not safe to leave her here alone.

Xiaoru grabbed me with tears in her eyes, for fear that we would leave her and never return, so I comforted her a lot, and after all, I couldn't bear to leave her where she was, so I had to ask Chen Yuqing to take her in a carriage to the foot of the neighboring mountain to find a farmer to settle in.

Chen Yuqing was a little reluctant to do this. Xiaoru refused to go with him, and in the end, Tianfang promised her that she would come back to find her, and she agreed.

After settling Xiaoru, we set off to catch Cangyan.

Chen Yuqing looked back at me several times and shook his head, I was shaken by him, and I was reluctant to ask him why.

Taking advantage of the middle of the road to rest, I hesitated for a moment, and was about to ask him something, when Yun Chu, who was resting by the tree trunk, raised his hand and grabbed my elbow, and whispered, "He means that you are soft-hearted." For the sake of a little girl, delay so much time. “

"Xiaoru is not a maid, she is our partner. There's no reason to leave her alone. "I'm right.

Yun Chu reluctantly glanced at Chen Yuqing, and in an instant, it suddenly occurred to me that after all, the gap in concepts was there, and there was always a clear distinction between people in their eyes. Identity is a gap between people.

I let out a long sigh, feeling that it was not possible to get these people to accept my point of view and show that it could not be done overnight, and that there was not much point in dwelling on such a topic at this time.

I silently nibbled on a few mouthfuls of dry food, grabbed the copper kettle next to me and poured a large mouthful. I almost choked and didn't throw up.

The country is ruined, and my current status as an exile is only inferior to that of the civilians in the Snow Country, and there are still endless people chasing and killing along the way. Yun Chu and I don't know what the future will turn into.

Thinking of this, I felt a kind of desolation in my heart, leaning against the tree, looking at the mottled shadows in the dense forest in a daze.

The nine princesses on the other side and the blue sky were smiling and smiling, along the way. The two of them were so relaxed that they seemed to have gone out on an outing in the spring.

I laughed dumbly, and then I thought about how hot these two had been fighting. Someone seems to be happy to see it happen, and rarely finds fault with it.

"The jujube paste cake in Qiyunzhai in the capital is the most delicious, I haven't eaten it for many years, and the imperial dining room in the palace can't make that taste," the ninth princess looked at the blue sky, her eyes sparkled and said: "When I finish it, I must go to you, and then you will take me to eat all over the capital." “

This capital is probably the capital of the land of the sea.

Tianfang didn't answer, only smiled and nodded, he was in a good mood all the way.

I looked at the beautiful Tianfang, which looked like a girl, and placed it next to the ninth princess, and it felt like a ...... Good sisters.

Sure enough, after finishing eating, the ninth princess talked about the ugly things he had done when he was a child, and I knew for the first time that his mother had dressed him up as a little girl until he was five years old.

The ninth princess talked about the situation when she was a child when she first saw Tianfang and pulled him to call his sister, and laughed happily.

It has somewhat diluted the tense atmosphere of the difficult road ahead.

Our footsteps are not slow, but the closer we get to the mountains and forests around Hongdong Cliff, the more difficult the road becomes.

I couldn't distinguish between the east and the west, and it was only at this time that I realized that the guide who led the way, Ah Si, was like a fish in water, and he and the strangely shaped dog he was carrying rushed straight ahead all the way, in vain I thought his legs and feet were inconvenient before.

We followed him closely and soon arrived at the hinterland of the mountains and forests around the Hongdong Cliff.

The ancient tree luan branch was across the eyes, and Ah Si held a black knife in his hand and slashed all the way over, this person was always silent along the way.

Chen Yuqing cooperated with him, the latter was better than the sword in his hand, and the sword was made of unknown materials, and cutting branches was like chopping tofu.

I looked at the cyan sword shadow less than five feet in front of us, and then saw the two of them working together to "open" a path.

The deeper we go into the forest, the closer we get to our destination, but the road becomes more and more difficult to walk, and the fog in the mountains is so thick that it is impossible to dissolve.

In the evening, we went deep into the most difficult forest, and even Chen Yuqing, who was holding a sword like clay, had to stop for a short rest every other time.

The three of them divide the labor, and replace the next person to rest every round, although it is slow, but it is more stable and economical.

Seeing the branches of the trees in my way gradually thinning out, I was a little excited, which meant that we were about to get out of this nasty forest, and the Nine Princesses behind me muttered something that I didn't hear clearly.

With the last sound of cutting down the tree, the three people in front of them suddenly stopped and took a step back in unison.

What's the situation? I squeezed forward with the Ninth Princess, and my mouth grew in surprise, and a completely unexpected scene appeared in front of us.
