These things are useless to think about now, and she doesn't know what the facts of these things are, maybe everything is more than what it seems, and no one knows who is right. As for the current things, it can only be seen that the tricks are dismantled, she has never been involved in those intrigues, and now it is really a headache to think about these things.
Wu Huan handed her the dry food in his hand, and the horses of the two of them were not walking very fast now, and they were more like walking on the country road. The twins took the dry food and said, "Eat quickly, and when you're done, you're on your way." "The road behind, according to Wu Huan, is mostly barren mountains and mountains, and if you cross this area, you will not be far from the capital when you get to the city over there. If you walk slowly, I'm afraid I'll have to spend the night in the mountains and forests today.
It's just that this icy and snowy place, since it is a mountain road and a path, there will be some snow, although there are also some people passing by, but there are few people, and there is basically no place to walk. So it's not going to be fast.
Jin Se returned to the capital, but the twins were suddenly not in a hurry to go back, probably during this time, no one had the time and energy to rectify the general's mansion. Mother, they can at least have another peaceful life.
If she can't get up quickly, she won't be in a hurry, just go back slowly, just enough to let her think of countermeasures. In the place in the capital that eats people and doesn't spit out bones, she can't just go back without doing anything, don't put herself on at that time, and even burden her mother and them.
The two walked for a day, although the road was really not going fast, but fortunately, these two horses are good horses, can maintain a good balance, so this day is also a lot of walking, before it gets completely dark, the twins can already see the distant city wall, but at this time the city wall must have been closed, tomorrow can enter.
So the twins discussed with Wu Huan and decided to spend the night in the forest here, and they didn't plan to go under the city wall over there, so they couldn't casually expose themselves to the eyes of others.
It's just that there seem to be a lot of people coming today, and when the twins were about to pick a tree to sleep in the forest, they saw a lot of people coming in this direction. The two looked at each other, not dodging, but both retreated to their horses and did not intend to climb the tree again.
There were about a dozen people who came, as if they were traveling in groups, some men and women, some old and young, they looked very tired, and they were startled when they saw the twins and Wu Huan in the forest, and then they all took a few steps back.
The twins raised an eyebrow, but she couldn't go up and speak now. Wu Huan understood, stepped forward, and still asked with that weak and inattentive look: "Don't be afraid, everyone, we are just passers-by, just you ......" They seemed to have brought a lot of things, and they seemed to have brought all their belongings, and they looked very dilapidated.
At first, no one in the group dared to answer them, so they went to discuss it themselves, and then a man who seemed to be a leader came out, and spoke to them in a country accent: "We came from the south, and there is no way, so we have come to flee." ”
Hair? They didn't expect this situation, and the news didn't come out, so why did these people come out instead?
Wu Huan paused, and then asked, "When did it start, you guys...... How many days have you been gone? "The south side should be a distant place from here, otherwise such a thing would have been reported over there.
"It's been five days." The leader looks listless, and his home has been destroyed, and he has left the country, and he doesn't know what to do with his livelihood in the future.
Five days! Wu Huanhui glanced at the twins, it's been five days, and no one knows the news from the south!
"Are you the first to come out?" If there were many people fleeing, they should have escaped a long time ago, and the news would have been brought out.
As soon as this question was asked, the man's face changed, and when he saw Wu Huan staring at him, he nodded. "Yes, the people there ......" he paused before continuing, his voice hoarse: "There are almost no people there who are still alive." ”
The twins were shocked, there was nothing left alive? But it's not polite to continue to ask, it's not good to put other people's sadness on the surface and hurt it again.
It's just that the man opened his mouth this time: "We haven't sent it there, and the most recent one is from the previous dynasties." Saying that, his face sank a little more: "I didn't take it seriously at the beginning, just treat it as a normal rainy season, I didn't expect it to be so serious this time, the county magistrate didn't know how, just didn't let people out, we still escaped overnight, and the next day I heard that it was sinking." ”
Sinking it, it must be almost dead, is it just so casual? Is it so fragile there? The faces of the twins also changed, no wonder there was no news coming out, what news was still spread when they were all dead.
Wu Huan also didn't quite understand: "Don't you have anyone to resist there?" Just stay in it so willingly? "You can't be stupid, right, when you see that the village is sinking, you still have to stay in it and not leave? Why didn't the county magistrate let people out?
The man closed the most, looking unwilling to say any more. Wu Huan looked like they were very hungry, and took out the amount of dry food for himself and the twins, and there was a lot left, which had been prepared for several days, and it was three meals a day, and it took just one day to reach the foot of the city wall, so there was no need for it, and it was a big deal to enter the city tomorrow and have breakfast.
When Wu Huan handed the dry food to the group of people, it was a woman who took it, and she also held a child in her arms, and looked at him and said thank you many times.
The man was more vigilant, and took the food handed over by Wu Huan from the woman's hand and wanted to return it to him.
Wu Huan didn't move, but just spoke: "We don't need to harm you, we are all outcasts." This is very convincing, after all, it is really yellow and thin.
The man opened the cloth bag on the outside of the dry food, looked at it, and it was indeed very cheap dry food, so he hesitated and accepted it, after all, after so many days, their current dry food is about to run out.
He hesitated for a moment, said thank you, and then moved closer to Wu Huan, lowered his voice and said, "Pay more attention recently, it's not too peaceful." ”
Wu Huan was stunned for a moment, and continued to ask: "Which aspect does this refer to?" "He knows that the capital is not very peaceful, but the people from the south also say that it is not peaceful? Is there a rebellion there? It shouldn't be! It's just that this question has already violated him, how could he not receive these messages?
The man didn't answer for the first time, he was still silent for a while, and the twins listened to the horse and felt that this pause had probably become their habit, and they had been pausing, and the people listening were really tired, but it did give people a very serious feeling.
"Ghosts, gods." Just two words, but the man took a lot of effort, and the whole person began to shrink a little, feeling that there was something around him, and after speaking, he hurriedly retreated to the side of his own person.
These two words, when they are really said, make people feel a little weird, especially in this case, in the dark forest, there is a little light in the distance, and there is nothing to see here except the light of the moon. When the twins heard these two words, they directly stepped forward and pulled Wu Huan back.
Because she just saw ...... Around those people, everyone has one or more necromancers following, and they, something is wrong! It's just that they don't even know it. Wu Huan was almost entangled when he got close to that man just now.
Wu Huan was dragged back by her and staggered a few steps, and just as he was about to speak, the twins hurriedly made a silent movement. This frightened him so much that he didn't dare to speak.
The goosebumps on the twins' bodies were about to stand up, because the group of necromancers turned their heads to look at them in unison, such a situation, the twins had not experienced such a situation, but at that time it was all under her control, and these, she didn't feel a trace of fluctuation at all, and the connection between them and her was as if it had been severed. She had to be silent first, for fear that they would stick to her, but she was fine, but this Wu Huan, after all, was an ordinary person, so many people came at the same time, I am afraid that the impact on him will not be small.
Wu Huan was also obedient and didn't make a sound, just looked at the motionless appearance of the twins, and he also smelled the unusual breath in the air, and then froze his body, waiting for her to give an order.
After a long time, when his feet were numb, the twins finally moved, and took him backwards, leaving the group at a long distance. Wu Huan knew that this kind of time was not the time to save face, since the twins were so nervous, they must have encountered something uncertain, and it was likely to endanger them, so even if he was dragged away by a woman, he did not complain at all. On the contrary, he quickly adjusted his pace to keep up with the rhythm of the twins.
This jungle is quite big, and the twins didn't even care about the horse, and took Wu Huan for a long distance, until they saw a dead spirit again, but this dead spirit, she could communicate and control, and finally breathed a sigh of relief and stopped.
It stands to reason that under the city wall, there have basically been wars, and there should be a lot of dead spirits, but the twins look at it, but they can't see a few, they are all very scattered and sporadic a few wandering around, but there are a lot of people gathered around that group, more than thirty of them, and the twins don't quite understand this situation.
Although she has the ability, this is the first time she has encountered this situation, when she is in the mountains, she can control the necromancers of animals and plants, as well as the necromancers of people who occasionally float over. The group just now is obviously wrong, so in this world, is there anyone who can manipulate them?
