Chapter 405: Tracking
Although Liu Suifeng is a killer, as long as he is not on a mission, he basically will not eat hard and cold dry food. Therefore, along the way, he occasionally went hunting and catching fish to solve the food problem of the two.
If not, Yu Panxi's weak little body can't help the wind, gnawing on dry food that can only fill the stomach day and day, and rushing day and night, I am afraid that I will be tired and lie down. How can you talk and laugh with him like you are now, while thinking about things in the capital?
Liu Suifeng resigned himself to the order of going down to the river to catch a few fat crucian carp, and then scraped the scales very skillfully. The spices were bought in the previous town and kept in the baggage, although they were not much, but they were enough to remove the fishy smell after being smeared.
By the end of the day, it was already dark, and even half of the sunset that had been hanging on the horizon was exposed. The two of them made a fire, put the carp that had been processed on a branch and roasted it on it, and chatted without saying a word.
Liu Suifeng took the branch and flicked the crackling flame, and then pouted, as if he was a little dissatisfied with the things he had done along the way: "If you want me to say, I have come to the capital to walk around once I can be regarded as a free coolie, and I have done everything." ”
Although his tone was a little complaining, Yu Panxi knew that Liu Suifeng was actually not really angry. Otherwise, according to his identity and temperament, I am afraid that he would have left a long time ago, how could he sit with her and grill fish so kindly?
So she couldn't help laughing: "Situ Ye's task is your own next, and the cooperation between us is also agreed to by yourself." Why are you suddenly complaining now? ”
The former was instantly unhappy, and after hearing her words, he threw aside the branch he was holding in his hand, and then looked at her with a straight face: "Hey, although it is true that I did wrong to assassinate the shaman, I agreed to cooperate with you in order to be able to take revenge on Situ Ye." Now you're a little guy running around with you as a coolie, which is not what I thought it would be, right? ”
"Bear with me, after all, it's only temporary."
Unexpectedly, Liu Suifeng was actually complaining because of this matter, Yu Panxi couldn't help but laugh a little, and then explained: "If we want to deal with Situ Ye, the help of these people in the rivers and lakes is indispensable, and they are a great help." When the two sides really fight, you will have to contribute. ”
"Okay, okay, I knew I couldn't talk about you!"
Liu glared at her angrily, and saw that a fish on the side was almost grilled, so he hurriedly handed the fish over with the branches: "The fish is grilled, eat it quickly." Don't talk to me about all these twists and turns. ”
Although he is not stupid, he usually hates these complicated analyses the most. In the past few days, Yu Panxi has been talking to him about these things at every turn, which really makes him a little unbearable, and he only feels that his ears are about to become calloused.
The latter couldn't help laughing, but he didn't say any more, just took the grilled fish and ate it.
The two of them were not familiar with the mountains and forests here, so they did not go deep into the woods to find the cave. Seeing that the moon was bright and the stars were sparse tonight, and it didn't look like it was going to rain, they found some hay and fallen leaves, and laid a simple layer on the ground. Although it is still simple, it is indeed much softer than lying directly on the grass.
"It's just a late night."
Liu Suifeng put the burden on one end of the haystack, but his eyes were on Yu Panxi.
Before this, it was not that they had not spent the night in the wilderness, but at that time they had enough time, and basically found a cave to get into. Now it is the first time that the sky is a quilt and a bed like this.
I just don't know if the girl standing next to him can adapt to it. After all, she grew up in the palace, and later married directly into the regent's mansion, and lived an almost pampered life. In such a humble environment at the moment, if you change to a young lady from any big family in the capital, I'm afraid you can't help but lose your temper.
Yu Panxi was a little inexplicable by him, walked to his pile of hay, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at him: "What do you want me to do?" Rest early, I'll have to get up early tomorrow morning! ”
Liu Suifeng realized his gaffe at this time, and also felt that his desire to watch a good show seemed to be a little bad, so he subconsciously raised his hand to cover his mouth and coughed dryly: "Cough, I know." You go and rest first, and I'll go over and put out the rest of the fire." ”
After speaking, he hurriedly turned around and walked to the side, without giving Yu Panxi time to react. And the latter did not doubt this, after all, the fire really needed to be extinguished. Otherwise, if it is allowed to burn, the men of the Bunqi Situ Ye will find their traces before it is extinguished.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, the two did not delay too much and continued to rush towards the capital. It's just that not long after they left, a group of people suddenly appeared in the place where they had rested last night, and it seemed that they had been specially trained to see their movements.
The black-clothed man at the head squatted down and carefully looked at the remaining traces on the ground, and suddenly turned around and gestured to the group of people following behind him, and his voice was a little low: "The fish and meat left here are still very fresh, and they haven't been taken away by the nearby beasts yet, so it shouldn't have been long since they left." Keep chasing! ”
The group quickly chased in the direction where Yu Panxi and the others left, and their speed was so fast that they disappeared in an instant. If someone passes by here at this time and sees such a scene, I am afraid that they will have to wonder if they are dazzled.
At the foot of the mountain, a little further away.
"It looks like it's going to rain, should we find a place to hide?"
Liu Suifeng put his hand on his forehead, looked up at the large dark clouds in the sky, and then turned back to Yu Panxi, who was half a step behind him.
In fact, if you want him to say, this weather is like the girl's mind is changing all at once. Obviously last night was fine, but today suddenly the clouds are thick.
The latter did not ignore the gloomy sky, but now they were at the foot of the whole mountain, which was connected to the forest of yesterday. It was the largest mountain in the vicinity, and if they wanted to reach the next city, they would have to walk for at least another hour, even if they were on horseback.
Looking at the dim sky overhead, Yu Panxi could also guess that the rain would not be small, so he nodded and agreed to Liu Suifeng's suggestion: "Okay, then let's find out if there are caves or anything like that nearby." ”
