Chapter 43: Suddenly a familiar face
The men who escorted this batch of grain wore armor, carried bows and arrows, and carried spears and short swords, and on average seven or eight soldiers carried a cart of grain, in fact, if this cart of grain was drawn in a cart, two soldiers were enough......
Obviously, this is going up the mountain to make some moves!
Now Liu Biao found that Wang Zhirong is indeed a very useful person, not to mention anything else, just brewing wine, can be exchanged for Jingzhou soldiers and enough food, plus he went up the mountain to really see Wang Zhirong's wealth, not to mention anything else, just talking about the water jade everywhere is enough to make Jingzhou rich and rival the country......
Liu Biao originally thought that whether it was in the mountains or in Xiangyang City, Wang Zhirong was already a cooked duck on his plate, and it was impossible for him to fly!
Therefore, Liu Biao has been monitoring Wang Zhirong, but he has not moved him, so that at least he can have a good reputation of respecting the virtuous......
Now it seems that it is not possible!
He found that the cooked duck on the plate actually began to slowly grow wings, and even grew claws, not only to fly, but also to eat him!
This is absolutely unbearable!
So, Cai Mao said, Lord, I have a plan......
So, Liu Biao praised his brother-in-law and said, you are my ovary!
The two decided on a plan to send food......
was about to implement it, but I didn't expect Liu Qi to come back and bring the elixir!
Liu Biao felt that this was simply a great thing for him to be helped, and it sounded like his son, who had no intention of turning to himself at all, and seemed to have been controlled by the gang on the mountain...... In this case, it is more likely that a son will go up the mountain with him......
Of course, they also heard that the defensive formation on the mountain was created by the two masters of Wolong and Phoenix, plus Wang Zhirong, a master of the immortal level, the formation of others can reach an army of 100,000, and Liu Biao can believe it......
After all, this Wang Zhirong is really not a boastful person, there are too many incredibles, and he is still a little timid from the bottom of his heart!
Liu Qi saw that the matter had come to this, and with his own strength, he would definitely not be able to return to the sky......
Let's take it with you! Take it one step at a time......
Liu Qi felt a hundred claws scratching his heart, it seemed that his father was really not the old and dumb person they said, but still the hero back then, and it was really difficult to guess what was going on in his head......
They saw the bright lights on the building of Guigu Academy from a distance, and when they passed by the garrison, they also greeted Gao Hu, the general under the mountain, Gao Hu was very serious, and carefully checked Liu Biao's seal before letting him go......
Then they went up the mountain road, which had been widened and leveled many times, but it was still rugged and more difficult to walk at night......
Liu Qi led everyone into the forest and began to walk with difficulty......
After walking for about half an hour, Liu Qi felt that something was wrong, the mountain was not high, and it could be reached in two quarters of an hour at most, but now it was still in the deep forest, although there were torches, it still felt gloomy, there were trees everywhere, and the cries of wild beasts were heard everywhere......
"Childe...... Are you taking the wrong path? ”
Cai Mao in the official history is actually a very talented person, not as obscene as in the romance at all, and after walking for a long time, Cai Mao also feels wrong......
"Uncle, to be honest, my nephew doesn't know if he's on the right track! I've been on the mountain since I went up the mountain, and today is the first time I've come down the mountain, and my nephew isn't even familiar with the path! ”
"Xiao Bu Li!"
"The last general!"
"Send a few scouts and explore the ......"
"The last general commands!"
"The rest of the people, rest in place and wait for news!"
Cai Mao is a decisive person, he knows that at this time, the more he goes, the more dangerous it is!
Liu Qi's heart was up and down at this time, and he was amazed that the formation of the master was really powerful, and he unconsciously made so many people fall into the Tao......
He is also worried about the division, after all, Cai Mao is not an ordinary person, and the soldiers and generals who can come here today are also carefully selected, and now after some exploration, they have really found the path, these more than 1,000 elite soldiers are going up the mountain, and the division is in a catastrophe......
Of course, Liu Qi is also a little worried about himself, although Cai Mao doesn't dare to kill him now, he can completely arrest himself, take him back and lock him up, once his father dies, he will definitely be killed......
After a long time, about half an hour, the scout team sent out has not returned......
Xiao Buli's second group of scouts had also been dispatched for a quarter of an hour......
After waiting until an hour had passed, Cai Mao stood up and ordered everyone to go back the way they came......
At this time, everyone's hearts began to hair......
The people sent out, two squads of twenty-eight people, are undoubtedly a loss! No one thinks they can come back......
"Don't care about the food, give up the grain cart, everyone march quickly, return the same way, Xiao does not leave, pick a few scouts with bright eyes and have been in battle for a long time, and lead the way in front with more torches, you must see the road clearly, identify the direction, and take everyone out of the ......"
"Whoa!"
Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, although they are all battle-hardened soldiers, but the current situation is really upsetting, even half of the enemy army has not seen, their own side has lost many people, and getting lost in circles is the easiest thing to lose people's minds...... Fortunately, I can finally go back now......
As it turned out, they couldn't go back......
When they returned the way they came, they had walked for nearly an hour, and it was the winter night, and if it was summer, it would have been dawn......
Everyone was sleepy, and after walking for a long time, they gradually lost their patience, and their hearts were full of despair......
Many people began to curse, causing some to roar in frustration......
Seeing that the team is about to be chaotic...... Cai Mao suddenly pulled out his saber, walked a few steps back with red eyes, and when he arrived in the ranks of soldiers, he casually raised a pawn: "What did you say just now?" Repeat! ”
"I didn't ...... It's not me ......."
"What you're saying is: we must have encountered the trick of the fox fairy Huang Xian in the mountains! The gentleman on the mountain is a god, and it is effortless to send the spirits in the forest to harm us and others......" Cai Mao's face was like a piece of bluestone, without any joy or anger, and he just asked lightly: "You say, what I said is not true?" ”
"It's not ...... I said"
Bang bang! A fresh human head was already rolling on the ground, and before the guy had fallen, his neck was broken, and the blood was like a fountain, spraying for a few seconds before his body fell......
"Who dares to make noise?"
This time it was very effective, and for a while the whole team was silent, and followed the team in front of them to explore the path again......
After a period of confusion just now, Cai Mao was distraught and very sleepy, and began to enter a sluggish state on his horse, allowing the scouts exploring the way in front of him to turn everyone around......
"Childe ......"
Liu Qi listened to the sound a little familiar, looked sideways, and saw a familiar face in the light of the torch!
