As he walked, the guard looked at his companion and couldn't help but sneer. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ??

He was going to take advantage of the pause between the three of them to ask why.

He wanted to ask several times, and each time his companion hinted at him against it.

Unexpectedly, on the subsequent road, his companion found him first.

He stepped forward and reached out and patted the guard on the shoulder as he stopped.

Then, the companion looked at the guard and whispered, "Have you forgotten what the young master said before?" ”

"I advise you...... Still don't ask. ”

With that, his companion gestured to him.

Some words are inconvenient to say directly, but it is okay to convey the meaning.

The tacit understanding of the guards also allows them to understand each other's meaning.

...... While the two of them were talking in the woods, the young man walking in front of them had already turned to look at the two guards who were left behind.

His expression was cold, and his eyes showed impatience.

They were refreshed and walked forward quickly.

The whole body of the guard tensed, and now there was no reason to stop talking halfway.

annoyed his little master, and he was simply looking for his own guilt.

Fortunately, the three of them were about to walk out of the misty forest, and the edge of the forest was faintly visible in front of them, so they could breathe a sigh of relief for a while.

...... The boy and two guards crossed the path in the mountain forest in turn.

At this moment, they have come out of the misty forest, but they still have to face the next road to take, and the situation ahead is still unclear.

There may be aliens who came in first, and the traces in the forest are enough to draw a basis for judgment.

Are there any traps in the mountains and forests in this area, and the exact number of aliens...... They don't know it at the moment, but they will find out if they keep walking.

Up to now, the boy has not had the slightest idea of giving up or changing his course.

It is true that passing through the Misty Forest is a test for him after reaching the Northland.

However, the result was unexpected, and the boy did not retreat, on the contrary, he provoked something latent in the process of walking and exploring.

That was the mood he had experienced several times in the past during the training.

Curiosity, excitement and a vague apprehension about the unknown ahead.

...... The three of them walked through the mountains and forests, and they were always shrouded in fog along the way.

When the fog in these mountains dispersed, everything in the mountains was stained with moisture.

On the branches, on the rocks, and even on the fallen leaves in the forest, the mist made the heads and clothes of the three of them very damp.

It's winter right now, and it's a bit uncomfortable, as if it's been like this since you entered the restricted area.

The young man changed his mind to the idea that if it was placed in the summer, and encountered similar weather, or even if the location was changed to West Lannan...... It is estimated that the miasma in the mountains and forests can easily make people sick.

Perhaps in the south of Xilan, places similar to this area will also be divided into forbidden areas by the Yuwen family.

The Yuwen family's power in the south of Xilan, even if people who have not been to that area have not seen it with their own eyes, can hear a lot from the gossip that has been circulating from all sides.

They almost controlled the entire situation in South Xilan, and even the prestige of the empress over there may not be comparable to that of the Yuwen family.

The more fame wins, the more good and the bad depend on each other.

...... The boy stopped, raised his hand to brush the mist on his silk, and felt the tentacles wet.

The guards who followed behind drew gourds in the same way, and also tried to pluck the leaves to inspect the surface.

Before long, the guard couldn't help but mutter, "What the hell, there's mist everywhere!" ”

He said helplessly: "But it seems to be warmer here than outside, and it's not useless." ”

The guards of the Yuwen family were right, the temperature in this area was indeed higher than outside.

The boy had long been aware of it, and he knew it well from the very beginning of his entry into the forest.

In addition, the boy judged in his mind that there was a warm current from the mountain that passed by not far away, similar to a place where hot springs gathered.

As a result, the environment in this area is affected by the warm currents of the hot springs.

In a small area, a large temperature difference from the outside of the mountain is formed.

This kind of place will not freeze, and even if it snows, it will be difficult to accumulate on the ground, because the snow will melt quickly due to the high temperature.

Walking in this area, you can sometimes forget that it is already a cold winter outside the mountains.

This is the same as staying in a warm room for a long time and ignoring the cold outside the window.

After all, it has just snowed in the area of Northland Town, so if you go outside the mountains at this time, there are still traces of snow on some mountain roads!

The young man thought in his heart, and walked forward unhurriedly.

Once here, they could see clearly that the terrain was no longer similar to that in the Misty Forest.

At least after walking for about a quarter of an hour, they didn't feel like they were repeating the same path they had taken before.

In this way, the plan to move forward becomes more logical!

The guards of the Yuwen family even had the illusion that after passing through the obstruction of the misty forest, the next road became a little easier, and they didn't know how long it would last.

If it's smooth all the time......

"Young Master," the Yuwen family's guard called after him.

The boy turned to look at him and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”

"Young master, do you want us to be the same as in the forest...... Leave some markings along the way, in case you get lost or have trouble walking ...... ahead? ”

After thinking about it, the guard met the eyes of his little master, and asked in a low voice.

He thought about it before he spoke, he didn't dare to say it too frankly, and he had to be cautious when it came to going back, and the young master didn't like to hear this.

The guard didn't expect it, but the boy agreed without thinking after hearing it.

You must know that there are very few people who can reach this area, and the marks they make are special symbols that only the guards of the Yuwen family know, and ordinary people rarely notice them.

Taking a step back, even if they notice, irrelevant people don't think of any code mark or something.

To carve in inconspicuous places, choose the right locations along the way...... This matter can be left to the guards below.

The boy hadn't thought about it before the guards brought it up, and now, now that they had all brought it up, there was no need for him to object.

They want to do things safely, to add a barrier to their own safety, so feel free.

So, as soon as the two guards got together, they immediately set out to do it.

Marking is a way that people who are guards tend to think of, and it comes in handy when walking in the wilderness on paths that are easy to get lost.

In particular, several people come out together to do tasks, and if something happens, if they fall into a trap or get lost, they can be found by their companions with their imprints.

I have to say that things in the world are often just wrong, and sometimes they can't be said by coincidence.

Equally...... What they can think of, others tend to think of.

When the guards of the Yuwen family left the first mark on the trunk of the tree, they didn't look at the surrounding scene at all, and he didn't have time to look at it, and this thought didn't turn around in his mind.

The guards only thought that they had left a mark on one side, and they couldn't be left behind, and the teenager's pace was fast, which was stressful for them.

When the guards had left about the fifth or sixth mark on the trees they passed by, he saw that there seemed to be a mark on the branches of the trees high up.

The guards were taken aback!

This time was not trivial, he immediately said in a loud voice: "Young master, what's the matter, is it still the alien who is walking in front of us?" ”

It is strange for aliens to go to the area under Sealand to investigate, and they still come to the forbidden land in the mountains, which makes people think that the other party may have ulterior motives.

Even the markers were used now, and it wasn't the first time I've seen them in the Misty Forest before.

Combined with the information received, the two guards of the Yuwen family changed their faces.

Facing the gaze of his little master, the young man seemed much calmer than them.

...... The young man raised his head and carefully examined the marks on the trees, then looked at them and said, "Since they both came to the forbidden place, it is not strange to leave a mark. ”

The young man's gaze crossed ahead and stopped in the depths of the cloud-shrouded mountain forest.

His gaze swept ahead several times, and then he said in a deep voice: "This road is extremely difficult to walk, and if you are not careful, you will get lost." ”

The young man paused, and then said, "It's hard to say whether there is a second way out of the forbidden land. ”

"They're staying behind."

If it weren't for the Yuwen family's guards who wanted to go together with the aliens, they wouldn't have seen the marks on the high places on the trees, which was sometimes really a coincidence.

There are traces, and what you see in the misty forest, you can roughly tell the time.

After thinking about it, the young man looked at the guard again and said, "It looks like ...... Their feet may not be much faster than ours, and they may actually meet them when they move forward. ”

"But ......"

The boy paused as he spoke.

The two guards glanced at each other and hurriedly asked, "Young Master, what's wrong?" ”

The young man shook his head and said, "No, I guess the number of people on the other side is not much, and it seems that there are only a few people." ”

If you want to come to the forbidden place to investigate, it must be more convenient for fewer people, and if people of different races come, they will not make a big move.

The young man looked at the marks on the tree, but he actually had a trace of doubt in his heart.

Speaking of codes...... He didn't know much about the aliens.

In the past, the Yuwen family had business dealings with people of different races, and when it came to tracking in the wild, the young man was suspicious and not sure.

His mind can be watched as he continues to walk.

Sure enough, there was a difference between intentionally observing and inadvertently, and the guards of the Yuwen family soon saw several times along the way, all of which were the same marks.

By this time, they had been able to draw a very accurate conclusion, which was deliberately left by the person who walked ahead.

The purpose is nothing more than to figure out the way and leave the way back as the boy said.

...... As the three of them walked, they gradually realized that this road was different from the Misty Forest, but it was a good thing.

Because now, it's not like the feeling of frequent detours in the Misty Forest, but always wandering in the depths of the forest.

There should be no mistake in the direction of walking, little by little into the mountains and forests of the restricted area.

They could feel that the temperature was always much higher than outside the mountain.

The air is as humid as ever, so the range that can be seen clearly on the trail is still not too far.

"The road here is different from before, and it doesn't look like a formation has been set up."

The guard looked at his companion behind him and said with a hint of joy: "Fortunately, I walked out of that strange forest, and I didn't have to go around and around, I couldn't get out." ”

He glanced at the mountains and forests behind him and said, "It's so uncomfortable to look at every time you walk a certain distance, and then you end up in the same place again." ”

The companion nodded, then looked at the guard and responded, "The strange sight in the Mist Forest may have been deliberately caused. ”

"If it weren't for that, if there was only fog in that place, it wouldn't be a forbidden area."

The young man in front of him turned his head to look at the two of them, shook his head after hearing this, and the corners of his mouth tugged slightly.

Then, with a somewhat casual tone, he responded, "It is precisely because of the strange obstacles that are set up that it is difficult for someone to get out of the woods by mistake or deliberately come to investigate. ”

"On the other hand, it's because of these obstacles, it's like reminding others that this place is not ordinary, and it's not necessarily a wise move."

...... The female officer came out of the courtyard and walked all the way to the direction of the imperial study, she knew that Gu Qimei was in that area, and she was going to reply when the matter was done.

When she reached the edge of the corridor, the female officer looked up and saw a familiar face.

She was about to speak, when she suddenly saw Gu Qimei's expression clearly, and stopped at the moment.

It wasn't until the female officer stood opposite Gu Qimei that she couldn't help but be stunned again.

After thinking about it, the female officer stepped forward and asked, "Master Gu, what happened?" ”

Gu Qimei is different from others, she is always very calm when she encounters things, which is not commensurate with her age at all.

It is rare to see her restless and with such an embarrassed look on her face, the female official said that something is likely to have happened!

She thought about it for a while, considering that the people from the front-line camp had just gone to the side house to ask, the female officer couldn't help but murmur to herself: Isn't it for the night attack?

Or does Gu Qimei already have a clear clue that will implicate people in the army?

Over there, it's General Gu, that is, the camp under the eldest sister of the Gu family!

...... Gu Qimei's expression was a little dazed, but her body was motionless.

Hearing the female officer's voice, she took a few seconds to react.

Her eyes wandered around the courtyard, and no one passed by, so she looked at the female officer and asked casually, "Have the craftsmen from the camp been settled?" ”

The female official was suspicious in her heart, but after hearing this, she quickly responded: "Master Gu, everything is settled, let them live in a small courtyard alone." ”

The lady added: "I have instructed the attendants, and when the craftsmen have seen it, they will park the cars that need to be repaired in the courtyard, so that they can do their work when the time comes." ”

"Well, remember not to let the idlers disturb them these days."

Gu Qimei calmed down, and said in a calm tone: "Craftsmen need to concentrate on their work. ”

"This is the car that Your Majesty and the National Teacher are going to ride, you must not make a mistake!" (To be continued.) )
