Chapter 373: The Strange Forest

He never thought of ordering any soldiers, and when he was dealing with Xiao Luan Guo and Xiao Guo in Ha County, he only gave advice, and it was Bai Fang who commanded the soldiers. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but now that these soldiers said that they were under his command, he suddenly felt more fear and responsibility in his heart.

Ye Cheng was afraid that if he didn't command properly, he would kill these soldiers.

Bai Yingping saw Ye Cheng bowing his head and being silent, with a frightened expression, he walked over, stood next to him and patted Ye Cheng on the shoulder, looked at those soldiers, his face was a little serious, and said in a low voice, "General Lai can actually put the soldiers under your command, which shows that he trusts you, if you show this frightened expression again, they will also be afraid."

Ye Cheng turned his head to look at Bai Yingping on the left, and then turned his head to look at the white-robed soldiers in front of him, the white-robed soldiers really looked panicked, and some of the soldiers began to exchange heads.

He knew that if it didn't go on like this, the morale of the army would be scattered. After struggling in his heart, his expression became serious, and he secretly said in his heart, "If General Lai trusts me so much, then I have to take this responsibility."

Ye Cheng took a deep breath, looked at the white-robed soldier with a lofty face, and said, "All the soldiers obey the order."

After the frightened look on Ye Cheng's face disappeared, the soldiers stopped panicking and stood straight, facing Ye Cheng with full energy, and shouted "yes" at the same time

One person's voice is not to be feared, but the voices of thousands of people sounded at the same time, which was not only deafening, but also made people's blood boil.

With this enthusiasm, Ye Cheng issued an order, "Select two hundred strong people to go down the mountain with me, and the rest stay in Dongzhong County to protect this place in case the enemy army sneaks up."

"Yes," shouted fifteen hundred soldiers at the same time. Then turn sideways to the inside of the mountain road and slowly approach the rock wall.

Ye Cheng walked down the mountain road with his head held high, passing through the long queue of soldiers. A somewhat muscular man stepped out of the queue and followed.

......

The forest I saw just now was indeed full of foliage, and the trees were tall, each tree was six or seven meters high, and the trunk was thick, and the bark was already thick.

But these trees couldn't burn charcoal, and Ye Cheng looked down under the trees. There were no avenues in the forest, only weeds everywhere, but these weeds were knee-high, and stepping on the weeds, he saw a tree in front of him with branches the size of an arm.

Walk over quickly, hold it with your right hand, and feel that the trunk is just the right size.

Ye Cheng looked at the two hundred white-robed soldiers and Bai Yingping who followed behind him, and said with a smile, "What we are looking for is such a big tree, it is too big to burn, and if it is too small, it will be gone as soon as it burns." Let's find it, everyone."

"Yes," replied the two hundred white-robed soldiers, scattered.

Bai Yingping walked over with a solemn face, looking around, looking vigilant.

Ye Cheng didn't know what Bai Yingping was looking at? Strangely asked, "What's wrong with you?" Then he turned his head around and didn't notice anything unusual.

"It's nothing" Bai Yingping didn't notice anything abnormal, and when he wasn't sure what danger there was in this forest, he didn't want to say it, so as not to make everyone panic, but he was always on guard.

"If it's nothing, then let's cut down the trees quickly and transport them back to Dongzhong County to be fired" Ye Cheng said,

……

After a while, the sun had completely set, the sky was covered with a black coat, and the forest was even darker. They cleared a clearing in the grass, lit a bonfire, and used the light to continue cutting down trees.

More than 200 people have worked together, and they have cut nearly 600 pieces of wood as thick as an arm's length of nearly 600 meters.

Ye Cheng and Bai Yingping returned to the bonfire with a piece of wood and threw the wood to the side, and the wood next to the bonfire was already piled up like a mountain.

Ye Cheng was so tired that he panted and looked at so much wood.

Bai Yingping on the side was also a little panting, he was still looking around, and said with a somewhat ugly face, "Ye Cheng, is there enough wood for so much?" ”

"I think enough, it's not easy to burn so much wood," Ye Cheng said.

"If that's enough, let's go back, I have a bad premonition," Bai Yingping said, always on his toes.

From just now, Ye Cheng found that Bai Yingping was nervous and didn't know what he was worried about, which made him feel more and more that there was something wrong with this forest. He also turned his head to look around, the forest was dark, and the fire light of the bonfire was not so penetrating, so his line of sight was only a few meters away.

In the forest, except for the sound of felling, there was no longer any sound of insects and birds, and the surrounding soldiers were slowly approaching their bonfire, the sound of felling became weaker and weaker, and the surroundings seemed much quieter.

This silent forest made Ye Cheng cautious and scared, and suddenly a red dot flashed in the dark forest, and quickly disappeared into the darkness, looking in the direction of disappearance, the red dot was completely gone, and only darkness remained in the woods.

This made Ye Cheng's body tremble, and he looked at the dark woods around him tremblingly, and asked, "Bai Yingping, what are you worried about?"

Bai Yingping also noticed the red dot that flashed just now, and became more cautious, reached out and took out the red tassel gun from behind him to prepare, looked around with a solemn face, and said, "There may be homeless people here, be careful"

"Outcasts!"

Ye Cheng was frightened and frightened, he knew what a homeless person was, and a homeless person was someone who sought to survive in order to escape natural disasters and wars.

But what puzzled Ye Cheng was that the war had just begun, how could there be displaced people, and there were no natural disasters for most of the year.

"Could it be ....." Ye Cheng had a terrible thought in his heart, revealing a look of horror.

The soldiers who were cutting down trees around also returned to the campfire, and several soldiers whispered to each other:

"Did you think someone was watching us just now?"

"No, there's nothing strange in the forest except for the quiet."

"No, I feel it too, as if a pair of eyes have been watching me"

......

Ye Cheng heard the soldier's conversation, which made his nerves tense even more. This forest is getting weirder and weirder, in order to prevent accidents, Ye Cheng shouted in a panic, "Everyone, we have enough wood, let's get out of here quickly"

"Yes," shouted the two hundred soldiers next to the campfire at the same time.

The soldiers walked over to the mountain of timber and carried three sticks on their shoulders. The wood was arm-size, not very heavy, and a perfectly acceptable weight for the soldiers.

Two hundred soldiers carried six hundred pieces of wood completely on their shoulders and stood at a great distance.

"Let's go, go back to the mountain" Ye Cheng gave an order, he didn't dare to say the three words of Dongzhong County again, for fear that if there were people in the forest, they would hear it, thus exposing their location.

Two hundred soldiers began to walk out of the forest, one after the other, and they were more than two meters away to prevent the wood from hitting others.

Suddenly, there was a shout from the front of the long line, "Your Excellency......
