In the valley, the silent darkness was gradually driven away by the morning light and the cheering of the birds, and the sun, which had traveled all night, gradually rose again from the top of the mountain, revealing a long-lost smile.

The sun was on their shoulders and dried the morning dew on their bodies. The squeaky sound of the burden on the shoulders of several warriors was like a lullaby, causing the people who had been busy all night to yawn for a while.

At the front of the team, Zhao Shixun controlled the marching speed while pressing his steps, and at the same time observed Shao Mengru beside him with the corner of his eye. Since leaving Wenxiao Village last night, Shao Mengru has changed her style from a rich lady and changed into a blue-black coarse cloth dress. In addition to the precious leather shoes on the feet, the whole body exudes a strong local atmosphere.

Rumo's long hair was simply tied together and wrapped in an inconspicuous light blue turban. On her arm, she carried a canvas package, in which, in addition to some changes of clothes, there was also the Southern Fourteen pistol that Zhao Shixun had given her a long time ago.

This woman's complexion is very white, with the unique fair complexion of a rich lady, and now her slightly stubborn pretty face is still beautiful, but it can't hide her deep tiredness.

Tossed for a night, not to mention a rich lady, Zhao Shixun and these militiamen from the mountains were tired.

His eyes left the woman's stubborn face, Zhao Shixun looked at a sunny slope not far away, turned to Xizi behind him and said:

"Xizi, you take a few people to the slope in front to reconnoitre, and come back immediately after confirming that it is safe."

After saying this, Zhao Shixun turned around and shouted:

"All stop moving forward, rest in place for twenty minutes, and no one is allowed to make a loud noise!"

With an order, the procession, which had been marching for more than four hours, finally stopped. The militiamen put down the burden on their shoulders, lay on the ground when they were tired, and lay down or rested indifferently.

took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, Zhao Shixun walked to Lao Wu in the middle of the team.

At this time, Lao Wu and intelligence officer Song Guozhong were checking the medicines in the baskets one by one, and walked for several hours between the bumpy mountain roads, and Lao Wu was most worried about the safety of the medicines. For them, who have been engaged in intelligence work behind enemy lines for a long time, they regard this batch of medicines as more important than their own lives.

Seeing Zhao Shixun coming over, after Lao Wu checked the last basket of medicines, he carefully wrapped the medicines with hay and put them in the bamboo basket.

"How long have we been gone? How are the comrades in state? ”

"After walking for four hours, the brothers were physically fine, but they were very sleepy. I plan to let everyone find a place to sleep for a while, and wait until noon to continue to set off, so that in case of emergencies, everyone will still have the ability to fight. ”

Nodding slightly, Lao Wu agreed with Zhao Shixun's idea. After walking all night until now, Lao Wu also felt that he couldn't stand it anymore.

Twenty minutes later, Kiko returned with three militiamen and reported the investigation to Cho Se-hoon.

Knowing that the slope in front was safe, Zhao Shixun immediately ordered the entire army to march to the opposite slope to rest.

The location of the slope is in the middle of a rolling mountain, surrounded by dense forests and man-high weeds. The slope overlooks the movement of several valleys below, and the view here is good, but it is also full of shrubs and dense weeds, which is very conducive to the concealment of the group.

After arranging the team and arranging the sentinels who took turns to be on guard, Zhao Shixun habitually walked around the camp, and accidentally found that Shao Mengru was curled up on the ground not far away at this time, with a painful look on his pale and stubborn face.

Lao Wu seemed to notice Shao Mengru's discomfort and came over to ask a few words. Seeing that the other party refused to speak, he told the other party to rest well and then stopped asking.

Seeing Lao Wu walk aside, Shao Mengru quietly moved to a position where there were fewer people, lowered her head and took off her leather shoes.

Looking at the several red blood bubbles on the jade feet, Shao Mengru was surprised and hurriedly took out a few medicine bottles from her package, opened one of them and sprinkled the blood bubbles on her feet.

"This won't work!"

Suddenly hearing a voice, Shao Mengru raised her head violently, and happened to see Zhao Shixun who was standing not far in front of her.

After a short silence, Shao Mengru sighed, and quickly hid her bare feet under the burden, and the blood blisters on the soles of her feet touched the weeds on the ground in a panic, and the painful Shao Mengru frowned, and when she opened her eyes, she was already in tears.

She has been a rich lady for twenty-three years, where has she ever suffered like this, the soles of her feet are full of blood blisters that hurt like pins and needles, not to mention, and let a man look at his ......feet like this.

Thinking of this, Shao Mengru raised her stubborn little face violently, and said with apricot eyes:

"What do you see? Don't look at indecent things, don't say indecent words! Don't hurry up and go away! Shameless deserters! ”

After seeing his father being threatened by the other party with a knife around his neck on the day of his arrogance, Shao Mengru secretly hated the other party in his heart, and his previous good impression of Zhao Shixun also disappeared.

"Hmph...... stupid woman with a hard mouth."

Looking at Shao Mengru, who was slightly angry on the ground, Zhao Shixun originally planned to turn around and leave, but he was provoked by the other party's words, which angered Zhao Shixun.

Damn, Lao Tzu kindly reminds you that you are still here to install it for me!

Thinking of this, Zhao Shixun suddenly grinned, strode forward and squatted down to pull away the burden on the other party's hand at will, and roughly dragged one of Shao Mengru's jade feet over.

"Ah......h Let me go, don't let go of me and call people! ”

Suddenly being held by a strange man's feet, Shao Mengru was instantly embarrassed and indignant, and after several fruitless struggles, she blushed from the root of her neck to the base of her neck.

"Humph! You're screaming! I don't care anyway, I didn't treat you like that. “

Seeing Zhao Shixun's attitude, Shao Mengru didn't dare to shout. If you recruit all these people, you won't be ashamed to death!

Thinking of this, Shao Mengru stared at Zhao Shixun with a pair of watery apricot eyes, and greeted the other party's ancestors for eight generations in her mind.

Seeing that the other party was no longer struggling, Zhao Shixun raised the jade foot in front of him slightly and put it on his lap, and carefully checked the soles of his feet.

"Don't wear leather shoes in the future, the mountain road is difficult to walk, and the leather shoes wear out your feet sooner or later. The traffic in this mountain is all about a pair of legs, don't you bring cloth shoes? ”

"How did I know that the mountain road was so difficult to walk...... so I brought a pair of cloth shoes in the baggage."

"After a while, the soles of your feet are blistered, and you have to pick the medicine. Otherwise, you won't be able to get off the ground tomorrow. Hold back! ”

"Ahh Don't ......, I'm afraid of pain. Can you not pick it? ”

Ignoring the other party, Zhao Shixun took out the sewing needle from his pocket watch. In Shao Mengru's shocked eyes, he firmly grasped the other party's jade feet with one hand, and carefully broke all the blood blisters with ......the other hand.

After picking one foot, I got the medicine ready. Zhao Shixun punctured the blood blister on his other foot and applied medicine.

After finishing these, Zhao Shixun handed the package to the other party and carefully put away his sewing needle.

Enduring the pain, Shao Mengru took out a piece of gauze from the baggage, and carefully cut it into two pieces with scissors to wrap her feet. Then he pulled out his embroidered shoes from his bag and put them on .......

"That's what you're talking about?"

Looking at the silk embroidered shoes on the other party's feet, Zhao Shixun was completely speechless.

"yes...... isn't it? That's what my cloth shoes are? ”

"These shoes are worn by you rich ladies at home, and they will be worn out after walking on the mountain road for half a day!"

"Ah......, what should I do? I've never walked a mountain road, ah....... ”

Hearing Zhao Shixun's words, Shao Mengru's face was innocent, she has been used to enjoying happiness since she was a child, where has she ever suffered this hardship.

“…… You wait, I'll find a way to go. ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Shixun pulled out his bayonet from his waist, turned around and disappeared into the wild grass. “

Twenty minutes later, just as Shao Mengru was dozing off in the grass with her package on her pillow, Zhao Shixun came back.

"Put this on the outside of cloth shoes, be sure to wear it tightly, and put the extra pair on your own."

The words were closed, looking at Shao Mengru who was dozing in the grass lying on her side, Zhao Shixun gently threw two pairs of straw sandals in front of her.

Struggling to get up, in the haze, Shao Mengru saw a blurred figure under the sunlight standing in front of her, and as soon as she opened her eyes, the dazzling light made her stretch out her hand to cover her forehead.

Squinting at the straw sandals on the ground in front of her, Shao Mengru immediately picked them up curiously and looked at them. I had seen straw sandals before, and those poor people in the mountains often wore them.

The straw sandals in front of me are made first, and although they are simple and ugly, they look very sturdy. The sole of the shoe is made of two layers of thick hay, and the straw rope of the upper is specially woven from fine grass, which shows that the maker has considered comfort.

Carefully wearing the embroidered shoes, Shao Mengru found that the size was actually very suitable. Suddenly felt a warmth in his heart, and when he raised his head and was about to thank the other party, Shao Mengru found that Zhao Shixun had left the ...... at some point.

At noon, after a brief lunch, the militia again set off in a northeasterly direction.

After a morning break, everyone's spirit is much better. After setting off again, Zhao Shixun specially arranged the top soldiers and guards.

Since it was a night march last night, Zhao Shixun was not worried about problems on the road. Now that he is on his journey again, out of his many years of military habits, although he is traveling through the mountains, Zhao Shixun still sent sharp soldiers and guards.

The strikers are Kiko and a fighter with sharp legs and feet. Kiko, who grew up in the mountains, is responsible for exploring the road ahead, and the soldiers who accompany her are responsible for running back to report the news as soon as possible when there is an accident.
