The cultists continued their journey after praying.

Wei Renshi sat on horseback, and Boss Shi led the horse forward in front.

Another night passed, and Wei Renshi didn't know where they were.

After daybreak, the group began to pause and rest again. At this moment, the place where he stopped was already a mountain road, and he was heading west, so Wei Renshi felt that he had at least come out of Fuchang, and even passed Yique.

Without the carriage, Wei Renshi could take a good look at these people.

Seventy or eighty people, most of them were like ordinary farmers and hunters.

There are only a dozen or so, and they look a little fierce, either from the military or from bandits.

It can be said that as long as you can handle these ten or so people, the rest of the people will not be a problem.

Wei Renshi looked around, saw that the dry food of these people was just dry cakes, thought about it for a while, and then said to the person closest to him in the group of people guarding him: "This big brother, I can't eat dry cakes, I'll give you some money, help me catch a hare, sparrow and the like, okay?" ”

The man turned his head to look at Wei Renshi and didn't say anything.

"Big brother, I still have some copper coins on me, if you help me catch a hare or something, I will give you all the copper coins. I made the meat of the hare, and I will share it with you! ”

As he spoke, Wei Renshi took out some copper coins and handed them over.

The man looked at the copper coin in Wei Renshi's hand, hesitated for a moment, took it, and quickly stuffed it into his clothes, but said in his mouth: "I can't be the master, but I can ask the altar master for you." ”

As he spoke, he pushed the person next to him and said, "He wants to eat, I'll ask the altar owner." Look closer. ”

The man moved over and sat down directly across from Wei Renshi.

After a while, that person came back again, but to Wei Renshi's surprise, the leading altar master also came here with him.

Wei Renshi stared at him with a worried look. The altar master walked up to Wei Renshi, sat down cross-legged, stared at Wei Renshi, and asked, "What did your uncle say that you asked you to go to Dunzhou?" ”

As soon as Wei Renshi heard him ask, he knew that he had not encountered an ambush along the way, so he somewhat believed that what he said last night was true.

So he calmed down in his heart, but his face was frightened, and he said, "My uncle didn't say much in the letter he sent me. It seems that whoever is going to die, he is about to develop and teach me to enjoy the past blessings...... also told me to burn the letter after reading it. ”

"At your age, you must not be alone." The man asked, "Didn't anyone else in your family go with you?" ”

Wei Renshi replied: "My uncle's letter only said that I should go by myself. My Aya left early, and there is a mother left at home. ”

The man asked something more, but Wei Renshi was prepared. And they also explained to Boss Shi and Gou Er, and the two of them didn't say anything.

After asking for a long time, the man thought for a while and instructed the person next to him, "Go and catch some game for him." ”

When the altar owner had finished asking the question, he left the place and asked those who were with him, "What do you think?" ”

"I can't tell." The man beside him shook his head and said, "We haven't encountered an ambush all the way, and if someone is really ambushed, it is impossible not to leave a trace." But I always felt that something was wrong, it couldn't be so coincidental, just so that we could bump into General He's family. ”

"What he said is indeed as if General He had been in contact with him in letters." The altar owner said: "He can tell the name of General He, and he knows that he is in the army of Yanfang. also knew that Wang Qiyao was dying. General He asked him to go over to save him. If he is not in front of General He, once General He gets into trouble, he will definitely not survive. ”

"He knows about the affairs of Dunfang, and our people must know it." The person next to the altar owner said, "What General He really wants to do now, only you know. But he can say it, he can say it, if this is not a spy or an ambush, then it must be true. But I can't rule out that he is a spy who has learned the news and is ambushing here. ”

The altar master thought for a moment and said, "No. He may not be a spy. If you think about it, even if General He leaked the news from the side of Yanzhou and was discovered. The court doesn't know about us. Even General He doesn't know who we really are. The imperial court didn't even know that we would be involved, let alone know where we were going from so that we could send a little doll there in advance to ambush us? It's impossible. ”

"Does the altar owner think that this kid is really General He's family?" The man next to him asked.

The altar owner thought for a moment and said, "Don't take it lightly. I still watched them like this along the way, and sent out more spies to pay close attention to the exploration. If he has a small request, it will satisfy him and not torture him too much. When we get to Juzhou, we'll see. If it weren't for General He's family, we would have watched him so strictly, and the three of them wouldn't have made any moves. If it's really General He's family, then we don't have much of him. At that time, General He will still cooperate with us to start a matter, and seeing that we don't have anything to do with him, we won't be too annoyed, let's be cautious, and it is reasonable. ”

The man beside him thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay! It's still the altar owner's thoughtfulness! ”

There are many wild mountains and mountains here. The altar owner gave the order, and it didn't take long for the men below to catch a few hares.

"Thank you for this big brother, and the big brother will eat it together after it is done later." Wei Renshi said, and then said to Shi Lao Da and Gou Er: "You slaughter these hares, then dig two pits in the ground, light a fire, and cut a few branches." ”

Boss Shi and Gou Er nodded, and didn't ask the people around for knives, picked a few thinner stone chips from the side and smashed them a few times, and then found the ones with sharper edges from them, and opened the intestines of a few hares and cleaned them up.

"This big brother, can you light a fire?" Wei Renshi asked again.

Because of the explanation of the altar master, the people who guarded Wei Renshi no longer embarrassed him, so they lit a fire for him.

Wei Ren used the branch to pierce the hare, and roasted it on the fire.

The smell of meat gradually emanated, and the people around turned their heads to look for it. They ate the dried biscuits all the way, and at this moment they smelled the meat, and they couldn't help but be greedy.

After a while, you can hear the sound of sucking saliva from time to time.

Wei Renshi sighed.

I finally got the cumin back, but I didn't expect it to be tasted by these cultists first.

"Uncle Shi, give me cumin." Wei Renshi opened his mouth and said.

Boss Shi unloaded the package, took out a cloth bag from it, untied it, and handed it to Wei Renshi.

Wei Renshi pinched out a little cumin and sprinkled a small layer on top of the rabbit meat.

Immediately, the air was filled with a strange and unique aroma full of temptation.

And the people around them began to gather in this direction.
