Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Inchworm's Bending, in order to seek faith

Qiu He has been completely integrated into the Lan Jiang army, it may be that Qiu He rarely had contact with these slaves before, and he has not done anything to make the slaves hate, even the unsmiling Zhai Qiu can sometimes show a stiff and embarrassed smile when chatting with Qiu He.

This little fox is a qualified longitudinal and horizontal family by nature.

Wang Xu couldn't help but sigh.

But he is not ready to let Qiu He have too much contact with the Lan Army, because the two are actually incompatible, the Lan Army is destined to take an extreme path, while Qiu He is the opposite of the other path.

He is now just waiting for the royal army of the ink wolf to completely become a 'Lin Hu man', so that he can follow Qiu He to learn about the situation of the Bai Di Department in the city.

The temperature is getting colder and colder, and now when I wake up in the morning, I feel stinging when I wash my face directly with river water.

It is estimated that in another month, the entire mountain forest will lose its current lush color and become a lifeless gray and bald color.

Now the weeds are more than half yellow, and the trees are beginning to lose their leaves.

But the food for the winter has not been fully prepared, which makes Wang Xu very anxious, and I heard that the big canteens of Chaoge and Haodu have begun to reduce the amount of food.

In the past few days, I have been compiling the "Divine Codex", and then giving lessons to Lan Jiajun, today is Wang Xu's first day of leisure, and I want to take a look at it all when I want to go back.

The Shihe River has become more and more smooth these days, not only cleaning up the sand and gravel in the river, but also a large number of fish and shrimp in the river have been salvaged.

The model of the breeding pond can be thought of by the dumb, and it is also unexpected by Wang Xu, but he is not optimistic about this project, because the water flow next to Chaoge is not large, even if the pond is built, it will not be able to raise many fish, and it may cause the miserable situation of fish eating fish and eating death, and it will not form a complete ecological chain, but it reminds Wang Xu.

Wait until next year, you can raise frogs, now the most important thing is mosquitoes, and there is no complete circulating water system of the breeding pond itself is easy to become a stinky ditch, the most suitable for mosquito breeding.

If you raise frogs, you can provide a lot of meat, and you don't have to invest too much energy, after all, that thing has a terrible ability to reproduce, and if there are no natural enemies nearby, it's very scary to think about it.

Since moose and takin became important strategic items for mounts, the Lone Bamboo Kingdom forbade random slaughter, and in order to provide enough meat, Wang Xu asked Mo Ren to start raising rabbits.

Don't be fooled by the rabbit's innocent and harmless appearance, this animal is called a walking reproductive machine, sexually mature in four months, embryo formation to maturity only takes one to two months, can give birth to up to six times a year, and a litter of at least five or more.

And I don't know why the hares in the mountains and forests in the eastern Liaodong region have a particularly high meat yield, and the seed rabbits they caught are the largest ones that are almost the size of a lamb, and they are simply giant rabbits.

Following the forest hunting, the Lone Bamboo Country began a new round of underground sweeping, and the three caves of the cunning rabbit were nowhere to hide under the shovel of the sappers, and a lot of wild ginseng was accidentally dug up.

When I first dug up the ginseng, no one paid attention to it, and it was regarded as some kind of wild vegetable, but after a meal, most of the people began to bleed, which scared Mo Kui, who was sitting in the capital of Maodu, thought that he had an epidemic, if Wang Xu hadn't rushed back in time, it was likely that Mo Kui's means would have pulled the whole city out and burned it.

Although ginseng is a nourishing artifact, it has been recorded in the "Shennong's Materia Medica" more than 4,000 years ago.

The word ginseng is a pictograph that fits the image in the oracle bone inscription.

However, these records are all Codonopsis, and although Codonopsis also has beneficial effects, it is far from being good for ginseng.

Ginseng can not only nourish, but also 'hang'.

For the country of Guzhu, where medicine is still in the stage of ignorance, it can be regarded as the only highly effective medicinal material.

Although Mo Kui is the Great Witch of Yin Shang, and the Great Witch is in charge of sacrifice and medical treatment, after all, the Lone Bamboo Kingdom has been destroyed for so many years, even if he memorizes the potion well, and has no clinical experience, it is all on paper.

I originally thought that there was no ginseng in this area of Qinhuangdao, but now I found it is really an accident, and depending on the size, the roots are more than 20 years old, and the effect is just right.

Ginseng was regarded as an important strategic material, and Wang Xu took part of it to replenish the body of the Lan Jiajun, and the rest was confiscated.

But what is the efficacy of ginseng's 'hanging life', Wang Xu really doesn't know how, he plans to find more people to try it in the future, and it will be convenient to sort it out into the pharmacopoeia in the future.

However, he didn't expect that his experimental subjects would appear so soon.

When he was about to take the boat back to the capital, a kite iron rider that reflected the sunlight in the sunlight seemed to be like a small sun running from a distance with a flag held high, and everyone subconsciously frowned and became nervous when they saw the flag of this flag.

Because this is the flag of the enemy attack.

Could it be that King Linhu came back so soon?

.............

Getting lost in the endless mountains and forests is a terrifying thing.

If you don't follow the sun, you can find the right direction and go out.

Because in the mountains and forests, the most important thing to consider is the issue of supply.

I don't know if I'll be able to walk in the mountains and forests for a long time before I can come across a source of water or food.

So Li Xin could only follow this unknown river and go straight down.

And the soldiers who followed him were already less than two thousand.

Moreover, most of them were seriously injured, and their armor was scattered, completely lacking the appearance of the Great Qin cavalry.

And the war horses under their crotches are even more miserable, some of the arrows on their bodies have not been pulled out, and the wounds have formed black scabs, but as they walk, they will crack and ooze black blood, and the appearance of limping is very miserable.

The whole team was like a puppet that had lost its soul, silently, and followed Li Xin forward with a numb expression.

It's eerie quiet.

Finally, a badly wounded horse let out a mournful roar and fell to the ground with a thud, convulsing twice before moving, and the knight on its body was also thrown to the ground.

Li Xin quickly jumped off his horse and pulled the knight out from under the horse's corpse, "Are you okay?" ”

"General...."The knight's face turned pale and his lips were blue.

"Stop talking, drink some water, everyone take a break!" Li Xin fed him water, looked at the lifeless team, and his mood became heavy.

They had been lost in the forest for four days, and four days earlier he had raided the Donghu camp with a thousand fine horsemen and had succeeded in setting fire to the granary tent.

But they were frantically counterattacked by the Donghu rangers, who chased them for a day and a night as if they were crazy, and if it weren't for the sudden rainstorm, Li Xin would probably have been wiped out.

This was also the first time that Li Xin realized the horror of the Donghu people.

Their way of fighting is crazy, almost suicidal attacks, and the only way to defeat them is to crush them head-on.

Even the Qin army, which was known for its ferocity in the Six Kingdoms, was not so crazy.

Li Xin, who escaped death, took the remaining less than 500 remnants of the army to find the team that had gone south before, and after gathering, he got lost in this mountain forest.

And along the way, because the wounded soldiers who did not receive treatment, one by one either died due to excessive blood loss or wound infection.

By now, there are less than 2,000 people left.

And the bleaker the future, the heavier the soldiers' hearts, because in this battle they not only lost their robes, but also lost the glory and the possibility of being crowned with a wife.

What is even more desperate is that they may never be able to get out of this mountain forest.

The tall forest was like a huge prison, making them more and more depressed and frightened.

"General, you can drink some water too." Li Qi, who had lost one eye, held water in his helmet in a hoarse voice and handed it to Li Xin.

Li Xin took it with a blank expression and took a sip, "Li Qi, do you think we can go out?" ”

"The general is a good man, so he can naturally go out." Li Qi's expression moved slightly, and he said with a chuckle.

"I'm running out of food." Li Xin blinked.

"Two more horses just died." Li Qi said softly.

"Drinking horse blood and eating horse meat, how different are we from the barbarians?" Li Xin smiled extremely lonely.

"The inchworm bends in order to seek faith; The sting of the dragon and snake to survive also. Why is the general so self-pitying. Li Qi smiled and said, "Besides, in this mountain forest, can you starve to death our tiger and wolf army?" ”

Li Xin blinked, and shook his head with a bitter expression, "It's me who has caused everyone, and you shouldn't be greedy for merit and put everyone in danger." ”

"Wealth and danger are sought, military orders are like mountains, what does it have to do with generals?" Li Qi frowned and said, "At this time, don't think nonsense, general, we will definitely go out." ”

"Lushan said that there are five immortals in the Yandi mountain forest: Hu, willow, gray, white, and yellow, you said that if I prayed sincerely, could I get the guidance of the immortals?" Li Xin's gaze suddenly drifted.

Li Qi was taken aback, turned his head to look at the soldier who made the fire and slaughtered the horse, then looked at Li Xin, and pursed his lips, "I'd rather believe it than not." ”

"As long as you can lead everyone out! I, Li Xin, am willing to give 20 years of life! Just ask for the five immortals in the mountains to appear! Li Xin suddenly stood up and let out a roar at the vast mountains and forests.

Li Xin's howling attracted everyone's attention, and some soldiers who were under great mental pressure also roared inexplicably.

And more and more people began to roar, and for a time the roaring sound reverberated in the mountains and forests, as if the rushing river had been shaken apart.

Li Qi's face turned pale again, and the most feared thing still happened.

Camp Howling!

A few days of depression and uneasiness were completely ignited by Li Xin's voice.

The warriors, whose roar was not enough to satisfy their crumbling soldiers, their eyes red, turned their gaze on their companions like angry bulls.

Regardless of the fact that it would attract the attention of the pursuers behind, in order to prevent a large-scale brawl from happening, Li Qi decisively chose to blow the rallying horn, trying to use the horn sound to recall the sanity of the soldiers.

The first to wake up with the dull and loud sound of a horn was Li Xin next to him.

Li Xin, who came back to his senses, realized that he had done something wrong, and his face instantly turned pale and bloodless.

When he was about to do something, he suddenly froze.

His pupils contracted violently, looking at the monsters with divine brilliance that rushed out of the mountains and forests.

Li Xin swore that he had never seen such a monster, which was huge and had a dazzling light on its body.

Could it really be that the five immortals have appeared?

Li Xin, who was stunned and still in a trance, weakened his knees and knelt on the ground.

After the giant monster approached, a familiar voice completely broke Li Xin's nerves, which had not slept for two consecutive days, and his eyes passed out as soon as his eyes went black.

"General Lee?"
