The next day, Mu Tong's master and servant who left Dry Leaf Town walked in the mountains and forests.

In order to avoid being tracked down by the Zhu family, the three chose to hide in the mountains and forests.

But after shivering from the cold in the mountains last night, the three of them realized that they were not prepared.

They didn't prepare anything except a little dry food and water, the dew and mist in the mountains were thick, and the night was rampant with wild beasts, although a bonfire was lit, but it really couldn't drive away the cold, so that the master and servant didn't sleep well, Mu Tong and Mu Qiu were cold, and Mo Qing was because he wanted to beware of the beasts.

The three of them woke up to the early morning chirping of insects and birds, hastily ate some dry food and drank some water, and continued to hurry.

Among the three, Mo Qing is from a subordinate background, although he is not treated by the current people in the Mu family, but in the hands of Gu Granny, he is a subordinate, so he can bear this bit of suffering in the mountains and forests.

Although Mu Qiu is young, he has also been in trouble for half a year, and he is used to enduring hardships.

On the contrary, Mu Tong, who is a young master, is miserable, he has been pampered since he was a child, and he has reached out for food to open his mouth. If it weren't for his high self-discipline, he would probably be miserable now, but even if he endured it, he couldn't get rid of the fact that he was embarrassed now.

"Young Master, are you sure you can go to another town if you go this way?"

Mo Qing carefully supported Mu Tong, and on the other side of Mu Tong was Mu Qiu, who was clutching his hand.

"Ann, Ann. The young master's physical strength is not good, it does not mean that his brain is not good. You are a young master, so many miscellaneous notes are in vain. I have already memorized the "Geographical Map of the Shengwu Kingdom". Withered Leaf Town is Jushui Town over three mountains, and a hundred miles east of Jushui Town is Lingguang City. As long as we pour Jushui Town, we can rent a carriage and go to Lingguang City. ”

"Wow, my uncle is amazing!"

Mu Qiu on the side looked at Mu Tong adoringly, and Mu Tong waved his hand to indicate that this was a routine operation, but the smugness on his face was not eliminated at all.

It's just that Mo Qing always feels a little unreliable when he looks at the two people who play treasure, although he doesn't like to read and write, but he also reads a lot of miscellaneous books, otherwise his organ study will not reach the point where the Zhu family misunderstands that the organ box he made is the handiwork of the puppet sect.

If he remembered correctly, the "Topographic Map of the Holy Martial Kingdom" that the young master looked at was not the version from thirty years ago?

However, Mo Qing didn't say much, anyway, as long as he didn't break into the territory of the Xuan Beast, in this kind of barren mountains and forests, he still had the confidence to ensure the safety of the two of them.

So, the three of them were moving in the direction of Mu Tong relying on the tree rings and sunlight, as well as the direction of the tree branches. It took a morning to barely reach the top of the mountain.

Standing on the top of the mountain, looking at the scene of mountains and mountains in the distance, Mo Qing didn't ask where to go anymore, anyway, just go down the mountain.

Mu Tong, who had confirmed that the scenery in front of him was different from what he expected, took his nephew Mu Qiu with a smile and took a step forward and began to descend the mountain.

He thought that he would be able to see the road when he climbed over this high mountain, but when did he think that what he thought of as a "high mountain" was just a mountain, and the next lush mountain with dense forests was the real mountain!

Steep cliffs, mountain streams that are difficult to cross, and peaks that cannot be seen at a glance, no matter how you look at them, they look like poor mountains and bad waters.

Mo Qing drummed in his heart and proposed to Mu Tong, whether it was to return to the official road.

But Mu Tong insisted on going his own way, carefully analyzing the situation in front of Mo Qing.

They have been away from the official road for a day and a night, and the people of the Zhu family must have searched for themselves and others along the way. If you turn back to the official road, it is easy to bump into them, and even if you can't bump into them, the people of the Zhu family will wait for them and others in the next town.

But it is different when you climb over a mountain, you can avoid the search of the other party, and you can confuse the enemy and not know the destination of your own and others.

As long as they crossed the hill, arrived at Jushui Town, and passed through Lingguang City, the people of the Zhu family would never have imagined that they and the others would go east to Lingguang City and then north to the royal capital, so they would definitely miss the siege of themselves and others.

Looking at Mu Tong is head, what else can Mo Qing say! Anyway, you are the young master, you have the final say.

Fortunately, the situation that it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down the mountain did not happen to the three of them, the back of this mountain is actually sparsely wooded, far less dense than the side of the mountain, the three of them arrived at the foot of the mountain before evening, looking at the high mountains not far away, the three decided not to go up the mountain for the time being, and spent the night at the foot of the mountain here.

After all, it's getting dark, and it's not a wise choice to plunge headlong into the mountains and forests where the sun and moon are gone, and God knows how many beasts there are!

But fortunately, in late spring and early summer, the temperature in the mountains is still relatively low, so there is no need to worry about snakes, insects, rats and ants.

At the foot of the mountain, the three of them found a shallow beach downstream of the mountain stream and lit a fire.

The field of vision here is wide, and Mo Qing is not worried about any danger to the two, as long as they don't run around, they can respond at any time, so they are relieved to plunge into the opposite mountain forest, wanting to give the two young masters some prey and tooth sacrifices.

With Mo Qing leaving, Mu Tong took Mu Qiu to sit on the edge of the fire and roast the fire.

The sun hasn't set yet, but it's at the foot of the mountain at the junction of two mountains, and there is a mountain stream next to it, so the temperature is very low.

Mu Tong took out the water bladder in his bag and roasted it directly on the fire.

Mu Qiu asked in surprise: "Uncle, why did you put the water bladder on the fire and roast it." It's going to burn out!"

Mu Tong smiled "haha", and then explained to him that because there was water in the water bladder, and the high-quality animal skin was selected, the surface was extremely smooth, and it would not be ignited by fire.

Feeling that the water bladder in his hand was a little warm, Mu Tong handed the water bladder to Mu Qiu and asked him to drink some hot water to ward off the cold.

Mu Tong felt that he was still reckless, but he had to pretend to be calm and reassure the two little ones.

There was nothing wrong with the direction, but he miscalculated the distance of the three of them and the difficulty of the road. Not to mention anything else, it is estimated that it will take a day or two to climb the mountain in front of me.

There is not much dry food for myself and others, but fortunately, there are many wild beasts in the mountains, but it is the end of spring, and I don't know if I can find some wild fruits or something.

After all, it's easy to find water at the bottom of the mountain, but it's hard to get water when you get to the mountain.

He and Mo Qing are an adult and a martial artist, and the shortcomings of water and fruits don't matter, but Mu Qiu is still young, and if he lacks fruits and vegetables for a long time, he may get sick.

But the thorn of the Zhu family was like a fish in his throat, he couldn't imagine that Zhu Xun really wanted to kill them all, and he regretted a little that he didn't kill Zhu Lu.

Looking at the posture in Withered Leaf Town yesterday, the other party didn't care about Xiao Muqiu's existence, and put him on the must-kill list.

"Uncle, there's someone over there!"

Mu Qiu's immature voice woke Mu Tong from his contemplation, and his first reaction was impossible!

It is the end of spring and the beginning of summer, although the animals have woken up from hibernation, but the beasts are hungry, it is impossible for any hunters to go into the mountains to find death, and now that the night is approaching, the sky is gray, and it is impossible for anyone to still advance in the mountains!

Could it be that someone lives in seclusion in the mountains!

Mu Tong hurriedly looked in the direction that Mu Qiu's little hand was pointing.

I saw a figure faintly seen in the distance walking on the river beach, slowly, it could definitely not be Mo Qing, then it couldn't be Orion.

Although he can't see clearly, he looks like an old man.
