Chapter 239: Into the Mountains!

After coming out of this small city, Lu Chen took out his map again for comparison. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info now that they have come to the territory of Yizhou, they should be extremely cautious. Judging from the martial law situation in this small border city, those larger cities are probably even more severe.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen's brows furrowed slightly again, although they could follow that escape route into the mountain range. But Lu Chen didn't dare to do this, in case it was discovered at that time, Yizhou Taishou would definitely arrange heavy troops to guard this line, and at that time, they would not be able to come out.

Therefore, in order to prevent accidents, they must eliminate all possible uncertainties. Immediately, Lu Chen began to look for other routes into the mountain.

In the end, at the suggestion of Luo Gong, Lu Chen found a route that was relatively far, but he could go around those cities. And the road runs along the river most of the time, so you can't go wrong.

Once decided, they immediately ran towards the unknown river described on the map. On the way, Lu Chen asked Long Yan to send a few more people to the two rivers on the escape route to find a boat in advance and wait to meet them.

As for the place of pick-up, they had agreed beforehand.

And after sending these people out, Lu Chen and the others completely stopped thinking about other things, and headed towards the mountain range where the Luo family was hiding at full speed. After all, it has been many days since Yizhou Taishou began to form an alliance, and time is pressing. On the way, they also encountered some mountain bandits. However, when these people saw Lu Chen's equipment in full armor, they all wisely chose to turn a blind eye.

It was at this fastest pace that they walked for about a day and a half. In the afternoon of the next day, a long mountain range loomed in the distance. Perhaps because of the distance, the mountain range looks as if it is located at the intersection of heaven and earth, and it looks inexplicably shocking from a distance.

Lu Chen only sighed slightly for a moment, and then came back to his senses. After all, the place where they are is is not safe, and they can be recognized by others at any time. Because under normal circumstances, no one would come to this wilderness, let alone hundreds of people like them to come to this remote place together.

In normal times, there might not be anyone here when a private armed force like Lu Chen and them appeared. But the current Yizhou, after all, is in an extraordinary period. Not only them, but now the entire Yizhou territory is panicked.

When they walked a long way in the forest, Luo Gong suddenly said in a loud voice, "There should be a Taishou garrison not far ahead, and there are very few trees in the place where the fortification is located, if we walk from that side, it is easy to see the clues."

Hearing Luo Gong's reminder, Lu Chen took out the map again and glanced at it, pointed to the map and said, "Let's shuttle horizontally from here to the junction of the plains and mountains over there, so that we won't be discovered by the other party!" ”

Hearing Lu Chen's plan, Luo Gong looked at the map again, and said in agreement, "Indeed, this is a good method." The Taishou of Nayizhou only set up a defense on the plain, and as for the junction between the plain and the mountain range, there should be no manpower of the Taishou. What's more, if the Luo family escaped from the mountains and forests, they would definitely flee from the plains to the outside of Yizhou. Won't run in this direction at all. After all, only the direction where the plain is located is the closest place to Yizhou and other states."

Although the route was not fortified, they were very cautious in their actions. After all, Taishou not only set up a defensive line, but also sent many people to patrol the forest. If these people find out, then all the things they have done before will be in vain.

A group of people did not continue to walk along the river this time, and there must have been people from the Taishou Mansion secretly watching over this kind of river close to the mountains. Therefore, they went directly into the woods next to them, although there were many animals in the woods here, but because they were not very close to the mountains, and these woods were patches and not all of them were connected into a whole, there were few feared beasts in the forest.

They cautiously shuttled through the woods, and at most they encountered a few small grass-eating animals on the way, and these small animals all fled into the distance after seeing Lu Chen and them coming.

The group did not walk in the woods for long, and when they came out of the woods, there was no longer a forest in front of them, but a hill about a hundred meters high appeared.

Seeing that the terrain in front of him began to change, Lu Chen also stopped, took out the map again, and began to compare it with the surrounding environment. And Luo Gong also stepped forward and carefully compared the surrounding environment, after all, he escaped from this neighborhood and probably had some understanding of the surrounding environment.

Luo Gong stared at the small hill in front of him for a while, then looked at the map for a while, and then said loudly, "According to my judgment, this should be regarded as the edge of that mountain range, and further on, it is the junction of the mountain range and the plain." ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen immediately said, "Let's go forward a little further, and then Long Yan will lead the city guards to hide at the junction of the plain and the mountain range, and I will go into the mountain with Luo Gong to save people!" ”

Hearing Lu Chen's decision, Long Yan immediately spoke out to stop him, "No, City Lord, it's too dangerous for you to go alone." Not to mention the army in the forest, even in this deep mountain and old forest, there are countless dangers. ”

Hearing Long Yan's words, he saw that Lu Chen smiled not very much and said, "You don't have to persuade me, are you so unconfident in me?" ”

Looking at Lu Chen's relaxed expression, Long Yan finally sighed lightly and said, "Then the city master is careful, if something happens to you, I can't explain it to the people of the Holy City!" ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen stepped forward, patted Long Yan's shoulder gently, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, this matter is not difficult for me!" ”

As the two were talking, Luo Gong, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, his eyes stared solemnly at the small hills in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "We can't continue to move forward, you see, the terrain ahead has begun to get higher and higher, and even the hills have gradually become more numerous." These are signs that we have reached the edge of the mountains. If my guess is correct, there should be a defense of the Taishou Mansion in front! ”

Hearing Luo Gong's analysis, Lu Chen also nodded in agreement, and he said to Lian Feng beside him, "You go to the front to reconnoiter and see if there is an army?" ”

Hearing Lu Chen's order, Lian Feng nodded slightly, turned around and rushed into the dense forest in front of him. After this experience along the way, today's Lian Feng has completely transformed from the immature boy who was even afraid of killing people to a qualified scout. (To be continued.) )
