Chapter 523 Go to Taihang, a magical means

Soon, Xun Yu embarked on the journey to Taihang Mountain again without stopping.

I thought it was a very simple thing, but I didn't expect it to involve so many things.

Even he didn't dare to say that he could not be affected a little.

Due to the rapid locust plague in various parts of the north, the grain and grass in various places are now in a crisis situation.

Even with the continuous support of the Zhen family in the rear, it was only for a few days.

Under this strong pressure, Xun Yu and Zhihong can be said to have traveled all the way to the starry night, rushing towards the direction of Taihang Mountain at the fastest speed.

Guo Jia of Jizhou also hurriedly dispatched Zhang Fei to assist after receiving this news.

As for him, he continued to deal with the government affairs of various parts of Jizhou, and if he could, Guo Jia actually wanted to go alone.

However, Jizhou has already experienced war, and it was finally a few months of relaxation, but it fell into the shadow of the locust plague.

This time it has dealt a big blow to these hard-working and simple people, and almost all parts of Jizhou are now making trouble.

Zhang Fei can only use force to suppress and don't know how to relieve himself, so in desperation, he can only send Zhang Fei alone.

In just a few days, Xun Yu and Zhihong finally arrived at the foot of Taihang Mountain.

Xun Yu looked at the towering mountains and the wreckage of the surrounding trees, and he didn't have to think about it to know that those deadly locusts had already visited this place.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Xun Yu's eyes also flashed with a hint of sadness.

With so many wooden remains, I think in the past, how beautiful and moving this Taihang Mountain was, and it is by no means a mess now.

"Daoist, can you still know where this address is? The changes in Taihang Mountain are very huge. ”

Xun Yu looked at the dense jungle in front of him, and said seriously to Zhihong beside him.

As for whether there is the so-called treasure and grain here, Xun Yu is not worried at all.

Since Qin Feng was able to say something that could be completely trusted, it meant that this Zhihong in front of him was a completely trustworthy person.

Besides, even if Na Zhihong has unknown careful thoughts in his heart, can he really escape under the observation of the wolf's fangs?

You must know that Xun Yu specially ordered a team of wolf tooth warriors to follow him when he first set off, so as not to get injured while letting Zhihong escape.

"Of course I know where that location is. Even if I don't know, after such a long time, my son-in-law must have found the exact location of the grain and grass..."

Zhihong looked at the endless mountains and touched his beard and said slowly.

"But now the question is, how are we going to find that son-in-law of yours?"

Xun Yu said helplessly after hearing Zhihong's words.

"This Taihang Mountain is not a small mountain, and it is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack to find someone in it."

"My son-in-law must be guarding the vicinity of the grain and grass now, we just need to go there, and he will naturally come out."

The old god Zhihong said comfortably, and after slightly discerning the direction, he walked quickly towards the mountain.

Seeing this, Xun Yu and the soldiers behind him also walked quickly towards the forest in front of them.

Because of those locusts, so although Zhihong is not in front

He was in a hurry, but even if Xun Yu was far away from him, he could see Zhihong's every move clearly.

"Dao Chief, can you really find a specific location? There is not much food and grass in our army. ”

Xun Yu said to Zhihong with some concern.

"Why don't we go back and prepare some grain and grass first, and then come here to look for it."

"The prime minister can rest assured that although the grass and trees here have suffered great damage, it is precisely because of this that some traces of the past can be found more easily."

Zhihong looked at the dirt under his feet and said slowly.

Xun Yu looked down and found that his footprints were clearly imprinted on the soil.

"But how easy is it to find a person's footprints in such a large place?"

Xun Yu immediately understood what Zhihong meant, but still said with some hesitation.

"Man must live not only with food but also with water, and I don't believe that the locusts can suck all the water clean."

Zhihong said as he looked at a mountain in the distance.

"That mountain is the highest mountain in the surrounding area, so send a few soldiers to explore the surrounding environment."

"You guys go up the hill and see where there's water around!"

Xun Yu immediately commanded several soldiers behind him and said solemnly.

The soldiers were not ambiguous, and directly rode their horses to choose a smoother path and ran towards the mountain.

It is also thanks to those locusts that the dense branches and leaves are eaten, otherwise it would be difficult for horses to enter even the periphery of this Taihang Mountain.

After a while, the soldiers hurried back again.

"How can you find out what kind of environment is around the Dao?"

Xun Yu watched the soldiers come back, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"There is nothing too conspicuous around the Prime Minister, except that there is a heavy fog cloud in front of us."

One of the soldiers pointed to the other side of the hill and said seriously.

"Since there are fog clouds, there must be a water source."

Xun Yu thought for a while and said after hearing it.

"In the past, because of the dense vegetation, the fog clouds in the depths of the Taihang Mountains would not be revealed, but now without the obstruction of plants, these clouds will naturally rise directly from the divergent place..."

Zhihong looked in that direction and said lightly.

"It just so happens that the direction is also roughly above my route, so it's a good idea for us to go and replenish the water source."

Zhihong said and took the lead in continuing in the direction of Fang Cai.

Sure enough, not long after crossing the mountain, Zhihong and the others were shrouded in a faint mist.

Although it is not that he can't see his five fingers, he also blurs his vision a lot.

"The fog here is so big, I'm afraid the water source is not small."

Xun Yu took a deep breath and said, he could keenly perceive that the mist he had just inhaled contained a lot of water.

"The trees here are starting to sprout, and it seems that the first thing to feel the aura is the water source and these plants..."

Zhihong looked at the buds covered by the branches around him and said with some sighs.

"After this locust infestation, I am afraid that these plants will also carry a little toxin in themselves, so as not to be killed by locusts again

gnaw, I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse..."

"A few of you go to the front to investigate, and come back after a pillar of incense to report!"

Xun Yu didn't pay attention to the sigh Zhihong, but said again to the soldiers around him.

After a while, more than a dozen soldiers rode their horses and disappeared into the vast fog.

"It's better for the prime minister not to divide his troops in such a fog, otherwise I'm afraid someone will lose his way..."

Zhihong was suddenly awakened by the sound of horses' hooves, and said to Xun Yu with a slight frown.

"Now that the fog is still thin, we can completely divide our forces and move, and it is not too late to make peace when the fog is thickening."

Xun Yu shook his head and said lightly, for the fog in front of him, it may be a big obstacle for those ordinary troops, but it is not a problem in front of the wolf tooth team.

Although Zhihong didn't know about this, it was naturally difficult to refute it when he saw Xun Yu say this.

I could only follow Xun Yu and slowly walk towards the front, and the fog along the way can be said to be getting thicker and thicker.

The wolf fangs who followed behind him also began to get busy, constantly making marks along the way, so as not to get lost in the fog.

There was a sudden sound of bells around them, but the wolf-toothed soldiers didn't seem to hear it and were still doing their business silently.

Only Zhihong was keenly aware that with the continuous ringing of these bells, those soldiers who had been sent out were originally sent out.

One by one, they returned to the group.

"It seems that our army is really good at managing the army, and it can actually train such an elite soldier."

Zhihong looked at the soldiers around him and said with a sigh.

In this way, under the protection of the wolf's fang, Zhihong and the others also passed through this foggy area without danger.

Looking at the scene that suddenly opened up in front of him, everyone present showed an incredible look in their eyes.

I saw that in front of myself and the others, green shoots had grown on all the trees that had already died, and the ground was covered with weeds and flowers.

It's hard to imagine that this is an area infested with locusts.

"Are there really locusts here? Why do these plants thrive so well? ”

Xun Yu touched the big tree on the side and said in some surprise.

If it weren't for the fact that the green leaves on these trees looked fresh, I am afraid that the locusts would not have reached this place.

"Looks like there's a spring here..."

Although Zhihong was stunned for a moment when he looked at the scene in front of him, it didn't last long before returning to normal.

"Spring? Don't you see a spring here? And the springs are able to make these plants grow so fast? ”

After Xun Yu heard Zhihong's words, the curiosity in his heart kept coming to his heart, and he asked the Zhihong beside him with some doubts.

"This spring is not the other spring, the spring I am talking about is the spring of spiritual energy, because the seal was lifted, some spiritual places between heaven and earth also began to exude spiritual energy."

Zhihong danced in the air with his hand, and saw a small flame appear in Zhihong's hand.

"It seems that the aura of heaven and earth here is indeed strong, and it can summon fire so easily..."

Xun Yu looked at the scene in front of him with a face full of surprise, no matter how much he watched these fantastic things, he would not feel a trace of annoyance in his heart.
