Chapter 148: To the South
On March 22, Hu Xiu got up with his eyes glared. But he didn't practice boxing, and he had already said yesterday that he was leaving, so he naturally wanted to go.
As for Chen Dinglan, he had already sent two hundred taels of gold to the yamen yesterday. As for taking her away with the emperor and the army, Hu Xiu didn't expect it, they had stayed in Lotus County for a long time.
If I stay any longer, I'm afraid I'm going to settle here, so I won't leave.
This is the last meal in Hehua County, and the dishes are more and more hearty than usual. The meat that Hu Xiu dreamed of was served on the table.
After eating and drinking, he didn't leave directly, and he had to wait for the emperor and the soldiers to gather, so he started chatting at this moment.
"Great-great-grandson, Chen Dinglan has been rescued." Grandmother said.
"Rescued? Who rescued it? Hu Xiu asked, isn't the city gate already closed, how else can people be rescued?
"Chen Dinglan is indeed a remnant of the previous dynasty, and now he is wanted, so naturally someone will come to save him." Grandmother explained.
"Yu Xian~" Hu Xiu glanced at Chen Yien, more than six hundred years ago, they were really their own family.
"Last night, I felt a special energy fluctuation, but when I arrived, people didn't know where to run, but there was this one left at the scene, and there was a dead body."
As she spoke, Grandmother took out the vine.
"Kito can kill?" Strangling people to death with this thing? It's better to use a rope, which is much more resilient than a wooden rattan.
"Great-grandson, look at this green vine, you will know."
Hu Xiu took the vine from his grandmother's hand, and felt that it seemed to be heavier than other vines, and he tried to pinch it with his fingernails, but it didn't break.
"This thing..."
"It's not an ordinary green ivy, or it's strangulating the neck of the deceased. And it also left a piece of broken stone, the bluestone slab on the ground was broken, and it was left behind. ”
"Grandmother Gao means that it grew instantly, shattered the slate, and then killed someone?" This Nima doesn't sound scientific.
Humans manipulate plants to kill people?
This...
"It has been recorded in the history books of the Hu State that they do have all kinds of strange abilities. However, this group of remnants of the previous dynasty has not emerged for hundreds of years, and this time the appearance of fanfare is bewitching the people, and they are afraid that they will take some action. ”
Although Grandmother Gao said that it was a guess, she was already sure in her heart that this group of people was likely to really make trouble, and Lotus County, which was so close to Ping'an City, had all suffered such an invasion.
However, she has already repaired a letter and asked people to secretly return to Ping'an City, and it is estimated that it will be delivered to the emperor in a few days.
Hehe~ Who said that in Lotus County, there is no Black Dragon Guard in this Dark Prison Mansion? They were everywhere and everywhere, as for the escape of the Great Grandmother from the palace.
They also know, but they just don't dare to care, you see that the emperor knows that his grandmother fled the palace, and he doesn't dare to let go of a fart until now.
Therefore, the orders given to them by this powerful woman, they naturally listened to them.
"Then Chen Dinglan's ability is really related to that white lotus?" Hu Xiuke also had to say that the group of sect members said that the white lotus flower that was originally in the Dharma field instantly turned into Sumeru, and then with a white light, it disappeared.
"Perhaps, when their ancestors were able to escape from their Walan, it also relied on this special ability." Grandmother nodded.
"Their ability is much more strange than ours warriors." Martial artists practice qi and blood, and when they fight, most of them are righteous and tough.
But this suddenly summoned a green vine, and then strangled people to death, are these guys still summoners?
"It's weirder than we are, but you've seen how weird they are. And there doesn't seem to be a clear hierarchy, the so-called Lotus Sect Holy Son who killed before.
Although he is an 'ordinary person', his physical strength is extremely high, comparable to steel. ”
Hu Xiu nodded, and was about to chat a few more words, but the old eunuch came in.
"Niangniang, His Royal Highness, the military horses are all ready." The old eunuch said respectfully.
"In the future, I will call the son of the world." The great grandmother frowned, giving her great-grandson enough face outside, but she was an old woman, she was called first and then called, but the respect shown in it was no different.
"Yes, sissy."
The group has already packed their bags, the carriage on it, these days of leisure, this white-scaled horse has raised fat, eat all day long, is resting, can not get fat, it is strange.
"Congratulations to the Inspector!" A group of officials, as well as the patriarch of the family, sent Hu Xiu out of the south city gate. I said goodbye from afar, watched Hu Xiu's military horse go away, and then returned to Lotus County.
The road is still south!
Hu Xiu lifted the curtain and looked at the scenery outside greedily, this spring color was a little thicker than some time ago.
"Xuansun, I broke through the sixth order, and I didn't see you concentrate on cultivating qi, you don't need qi and blood to nourish qi, you simply rely on your own qi and blood to operate automatically.
The speed of qi cultivation is too slow. "As a master far beyond the eighth order, how could Grandmother Gao not be able to see through Hu Xiu's details.
"Sixth Order?" Shi Ling'er said in surprise, "Xianggong, when did you break through?" ”
"When did I break through?" Hu Xiu scratched his head, "Oh~ I can't remember clearly, it seems that I just put a fart in a dream, and then I broke through." ”
Got a fart in your dreams and broke through? This is like, but the women are skeptical. Only Akai Kikako, but her face is not different, because Hu Xiu really let out a fart and broke through.
The house was a mess, and she thought it was an earthquake.
For several days, I walked along the official road, rushed normally for four hours during the day, and slept at the post station at night, but nothing major happened.
This flag is fluttering in the wind, on the territory of Dahu, seeing this flag, who dares to take the initiative to provoke? People who want to challenge the royal family are always in the minority, and smart people will not do such a rebellious thing.
On this day, Hu Xiu spread out the silk book map given by his father every day.
"Continue to walk south along this official road~" Hu Xiu looked at the map and successfully found where he was, he pointed to a small path on the map, and shifted back little by little.
But I found that there was no way to go, a large area of green on the map, marked with a few big characters "Rihua Forest", Rihua Ye, the five elements belong to fire, representing prosperity and full of livelihood.
It occupies a large area, and it is also marked that although there is a fairly spacious mountain road. But at the same time, it is also marked that the fish and dragons here, like mountain bandits, and bearded wanted criminals, all love to drill into it and hide in it.
But I don't want to be called "Rihua", but it is extremely dark, and the hiding place of all kinds of sins is the place where pickling is located.
If you take this mountain road, choose to go straight, and you can go through it in three days. There is also an official road on the side, but it is to detour, this Rihua Forest is like a huge thing, where is it blocked, if you want to go around, I don't know how long.
Hu Xiu frowned, he was thinking about whether to choose a straight through or an official road. It is indeed safe to take the official road, but it is very slow and will delay him for a long time.
Then take the mountain road~ Hu Xiu's eyes were shining, didn't he just think about happiness in the rivers and lakes at the beginning? This is not the place where the body and mind are trained.
This pickled place, a place of filth and filth, if those people are more bright, they will not take the initiative to provoke. But if their eyes are set in the sky and they provoke them, then they can't be good.
Also, if you encounter injustice, you will be killed! No matter what he said, he was also the future emperor of the Hu State.
The order was given, and the army continued to move south, taking the mountain path of the Rihua Forest. Inside, mountain bandits and wanted criminals gather, so don't be cautious. ”
Hu Xiu summoned Luo Chenyi and gave him an order to pass on the news. Grandpa Mao said that it is necessary to despise the enemy strategically and attach importance to the enemy tactically.
Hu Xiu won't be stupid, he really doesn't have any precautions against them.
Continuing to the south, we stayed at a post house at night. That night, Hu Xiu took out the silk book map and determined again that if they went further south, they would have to leave the official road.
It is estimated that thirty miles away is the Rihua Forest, which will be the last day they can live in the inn, and for the next three or four days, they will have to sleep in the upper forest.
The women also knew that at this time they had already fallen asleep, and they were afraid that they would not have much sleep in the next few days.
And where did Chen Dinglan go? In a house in a ravine far from the cape, it was dark and damp, and there was no light in sight.
"Uncle Chen Pu?" Chen Dinglan woke up in a daze, "Where is this?" ”
"A mountainous place in the countryside, no one can find it." Chen Pu said.
"Uncle Park saved me before?" Chen Dinglan rubbed her head, got up from the bed, and looked at the surrounding environment, it was tattered, the furniture was almost rotten, and the air was damp and smelly.
"How fishy and smelly is this?" Chen Dinglan pinched her nose, this environment was worse than the place where she slept in the kennel before, and the smell of the kennel was not as big as this.
"It's very stinky~" Chen Pu said with a smile, "Miss Ding Lan wants this place to be clean and smellless?" ”
"Uncle Park~ You've made a mistake again." Chen Dinglan rolled her eyes helplessly, "Yes, I need to be clean here." ”
"Okay, meet your requirements." Chen Pu lifted up with one hand, and the bottom vibrate, but it was like an earth dragon turning over, and countless vines came out of the ground, enveloping the entire house.
Not only the room, but also the floor like stools and chairs, and even the bed was wrapped. The windows in the house were open, and a cool breeze blew in, and the rotten atmosphere in the house was dispersed.
"Uncle Chen Pu, in fact, it is better to use vines to wrap a house like this, it is better to directly build a house with vines, it will come quickly."
"Didn't Miss Ding Lan say it~" Chen Pu was still smiling.
"Uncle, Chen Shangbo was killed by the patrol envoys, and there is no one else, so don't call me Miss Ding Lan, it sounds strange." Chen Dinglan's head was still a little dizzy, so she sat back on the bed and changed her words first.
Chen Pu didn't reply, still standing there.
"Uncle Park?" Chen Dinglan greeted him, but he still didn't answer, "I know that he doesn't open his mouth if he doesn't care about what he thinks is important." ”
"Uncle! We're running away now, but I'm afraid my parents will be embarrassed by the patriarch! This voice was earth-shattering.
"Miss Ding Lan, who is fine, thought that she would not usurp the position of head of the family until the time was ripe, but because Miss Ding Lan had an accident, she had to advance."
"Don't call me Miss Dinglan!" Chen Dinglan said helplessly, she has always been called Miss Dinglan by her uncle, which is really weird.
After a few seconds, a scream, "Ah! Uncle, you're not wrong, my parents are going to usurp the throne? And because I'm one step ahead? ”
"Yes, Miss Dinglan. They've already started to act now, so that's why I'm bringing you here to avoid it. Chen Pu said flatly, as if this usurpation was like a playhouse.
"No, they will usurp the throne when they are ready, nothing will happen, right?" Chen Dinglanteng stood up from the bed suddenly, her first reaction was not, why did her parents usurp the throne.
"Otherwise, we will go back secretly and observe secretly, and Fangzheng's parents will usurp their throne. We don't stop it, we just look at it secretly, and if something is wrong, we run, how about it? ”
Chen Pu was stunned, this idea seems to be a little good, alas, and being able to watch a play, how good.
"Miss Ding Lan is so smart, why didn't I think I could do this, go back and watch them usurp the throne, maybe, I can help a little."
"Of course, when are we leaving?" Chen Dinglan asked, his uncle is easy to deceive.
"You can go now~" Chen Pu looked at it, the sun that had not risen just now, and it was only early in the morning, of course he could go.
"Okay~" Chen Dinglan looked at the package on the bed, opened it and checked it, and after there was nothing missing, she pushed open the rattan door and walked out.
As far as the eye can see, a patch of green, towering trees, endlessly, with no end in sight. Turning his head, there was a wooden house wrapped in vines, and there was no sign of anyone except for their own house.
"Uncle!! That's what you say, a mountain place in the countryside? ”
What about the mountains? It's a primeval jungle that you can't see a single person.
