Chapter 58 Each has its own scheming
On the shore of the salt water, the sunset is obliquely shining, and the blue water is simmering. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Since Hanxi was blocked by Ji's, a large area of stream water poured into Yanze, forming a water basin of 17 miles from east to west and 20 miles from north to south in a short period of time.
For a month, the surface of the water showed no sign of abating.
Shiozawa is naturally a saltwater lake, but a variety of salt-tolerant plants such as reeds, spines, and white grass that originally grew in Shiozawa grew more luxuriant after being soaked in salt water, attracting many migratory birds to fly south.
The Cheng clan and the Ye clan all stopped by the salt to watch this magnificent scenery at this moment.
The sun was about to set, and it was too dangerous to walk through the mountains and forests at night, so they had to wait for tomorrow for the last forty miles or so, and at night they were ready to spend the night on the banks of Shiozawa.
Shu Case and Nakashiro Takushi are no longer entangled in the conflict during the day, and are standing by Shiozawa together to watch the scenery.
The two convoys were still separated, and the previous conflict was not so easy to resolve, so the two convoys chose a lakeside high ground and camped 100 meters apart, without interfering with each other, and they could support each other in case of an attack by foreign beasts at night.
Coachmen and servants orderly settled their horses, parked their vehicles, set up tents, and some took out insect repellent powder in cloth bags and spread it around the camp, where a large pile of wood had been piled up, and a large pile of bonfires was indispensable for sleeping in the wilderness at night.
Standing on the shores of Lake Shiozawa, you can see large flocks of birds rising and falling from time to time, and even in the lush grass by the lake, you can see hundreds of herds of wild sheep, bison, deer and other herbivores grazing on the weeds.
"Huh? Why are there no giant rhinos and buffaloes in the Northern Wilderness? Ye Zhao's little fat man stood at the head of his carriage and looked around curiously, "Uncle Shu, didn't you say that you can see all kinds of giant rhinos and buffaloes in the Northern Wilderness on every Daze side?" Why didn't I see it? ”
"Haha, this piece of salt has dried up for nearly a hundred years, that is, the waters have only been restored in this month, where will the giant rhinoceros and the Northern Wilderness buffalo know this place so quickly?"
Shu Ben lovingly helped the little fat man out of the car and pointed to the mountain forest road to the west, "Besides, there is a big guy over there who loves to hunt!" ”
"Uncle Shu, could it be that the dragon sparrow of the Qing clan?" While speaking, Miss Ye also jumped out of the carriage, she was wearing a men's dress and was particularly heroic, she was only fourteen years old, she was tall and nearly seven and a half feet tall, especially a pair of long legs were amazingly slender.
Zhongcheng Tuoluo was slightly surprised that the eldest daughter of the Ye family would appear here, but thinking about the etiquette of not listening, speaking, and seeing, he still pretended not to recognize it.
"That's nature, a dragon finch is so powerful, the meat it eats every day is not a decimal!" Shu Case looked at the eldest lady with great aura in his family, and then looked at the little fat man Ye Zhao was a little helpless, if only the head of the family, Ye Zhao, could have half the ability of his sister.
Ye Mengqiu quietly looked at the salt in front of him, which was more than ten miles wide, and the vast west side of the smoke was a large rolling mountain forest, and the Qing clan's sealed soil was hidden in this mountain forest, and there was also a person who had heard about it for ten years.
A large flock of wild birds appeared in the western sky, circling and flying in the sky, and suddenly the flock seemed to be frightened, and then dispersed.
With a chirp, I saw a huge fiery red dragon sparrow soaring into the sky, and the flying feathers on the edge of its wide wings seemed to be inlaid with a golden edge by the setting sun, hovering in the sky for a few moments, and then quickly disappeared into the sky.
"It's amazing!"
It wasn't until the dragon sparrow disappeared from view that Takuto Nakashiro couldn't help but admire the sky, not knowing whether it was the magnificent scenery of the sunset or the wonder of the dragon sparrow.
"May the wings of the birds fly to the great river. The flyer does not care about me, and the sigh will return in peace. ”
Shu Case shook his head and said, "This bird is still so useless!" No wonder Qingluan's girl didn't take it with her when she left! ”
"Brother Shu is laughing!"
Zhongcheng Tuo was a little surprised, "This dragon sparrow claims to have combat power comparable to the five-rank warrior realm, and the entire northern frontier of Xingguo can compete with it, I'm afraid it is just the black rhino in Beilin City and the contracting beasts of several other big cities, how can it be said that it has no potential?" ”
"Cut, when you were away from studying, how did you know how powerful its owner was! It's not the only one of the Qing Clan's female contracting beasts! Shu shook his head and didn't want to go into more detail.
Nakashiro Taku's curiosity was aroused, where was he willing to stop there, and wanted to ask a few more questions, but was interrupted by Su Kuo.
"Taku Nakajo! Not far away is the Ji's fiefdom, why don't you go there to spend the night, and have to camp in this wet and humid land of salt? Cheng Yu's cousin Su Kuo shouted very unceremoniously, "If you don't want to go, I'll take someone to go by myself!" ”
"What a bastard!" Shu Case's face was displeased, and Zhongcheng Tuo's face was also embarrassed, even the city lord Cheng Yu had never said anything to him like this, Su Kuo was just his nephew, relying on his aunt's favor, and he actually scolded him in front of so many people.
Without waiting for Zhongcheng Tuo to say anything, a gentleman-like voice came from a distance: "Corporal Jidan is visiting, ask you how you are doing!" This place is close to the salt sawa, and the humidity is extremely heavy, so it is better to go to my Ji's fiefdom for a night, otherwise it is really a sin of Jidan! ”
If it was someone who didn't know Ji Dan, at first glance he would have a little good impression of this person because of his appearance, and both of them knew the conspiracies and tricks that Ji did to the Qing family, and none of them wanted to pay attention to Ji Dan.
On the contrary, Su Kuo heard that the Ji family took the initiative to invite and felt that the other party knew each other very well, first glared at Zhongcheng Tuo and snorted coldly, and then stepped forward and raised his head and said proudly to Ji Dan: "Very good, since your Ji family's house is near the left, then lead the way ahead!" ”
Ji Dan was choked all of a sudden, he just wanted to find out what the Ye clan and the Cheng clan were here for, could it be that they really wanted to support a large amount of food for the Qing clan? As a result, I didn't expect to meet someone like Su Kuo.
However, Su Kuo's next words made him happy.
Su Kuo didn't notice Ji Dan's expression at all, and said proudly: "Clean up the room for me, let the master be happy, my uncle Cheng Dafu will definitely give you some rewards, and the little Qing clan seal still wants me to run with me!" ”
"This is nature, adults come to the cold house, it is really brilliant!" Ji Dan complimented Su Kuo repeatedly while looking at the others.
Seeing that no one on both sides of Zhongcheng Tuo and Shu Case paid attention to him, Ji Dan felt that it was a gain to be able to win over a big person, so he immediately concentrated on talking to Su Kuo while walking.
Jidan, who has experienced decades of ups and downs, is definitely not comparable to the two young people, and after just a stick of incense, he has already said that this young man is itchy in his heart, and he only feels that Jidan is really a confidant.
Nakajo Tuo's face was embarrassed.
Cheng's convoy originally consisted of thirty people, but most of them left with Su Kuo at once, and only twelve people stayed to accompany Zhongcheng Tuo, most of whom were still drivers who drove the car.
But under the guidance of Yang Hu, Shu noticed a young man in Mai in the Cheng family's crowd.
This young man was dressed in shabby, no different from the coachman in the team, and he looked like he was only a twenty-two or three-year-old servant, who would have thought that this was actually a master whose strength far surpassed that of Yang Hu?
"I've found out that this person is a diner under Dr. Cheng's door!"
Yang Hu inquired around from his own coachman and servants, and learned a little bit of information, and he said to Shu Case, "Although I can't determine his specific identity, it is likely that he is the wild man who called himself the swordsman Nie Li's disciple five years ago!"
At that time, everyone knew that Nie Li had disappeared a few years ago, and no one thought that he was really Nie Li's apprentice, even if his swordsmanship was quite commendable, and he had been wandering around for the next few years, and he didn't know when he became a diner under the Cheng family! ”
"Hmm!" Shu Case nodded again and again, "Even if he is a diner, he is dressed like a servant, which means that Doctor Cheng has not noticed this person yet, so I will try to contact him in the past few days, and when I return to Beilin City, I will quickly recruit him to our house!" ”
"Just what I want!" Yang Hu was a little excited, "There is no one in the Tianfu who can fight with me these days, and finally there is one stronger than me, and he can let go of his hands and feet to practice every day!" ”
