Chapter 110: The Mysterious Army

This reminded Wang Xiang and patted his thigh, "I have an idea." Anyway, the top priority is to survive tonight, so it is better to kill a horse first and help Xiao Ai fill his stomach. Wait until tomorrow to get to the next market town, and then buy a new horse!"

Xiao Ai's eyes lit up suddenly, and she couldn't help swallowing, "Yes, you don't need to kill too much, one horse is enough for me to eat!"

Lao Bai also chimed in: "Good idea! I just tasted it, how is the boss's barbecue!"

Hearing that there was meat to eat, the opinions of the three of them instantly agreed.

Wu Bencao was powerless to refute, so he could only agree, "Okay, then kill Xiao Ai and ride that horse, and after eating, let her ride with me." In this case, don't be idle, I'll arrange a division of labor for you. ”

The four of them stopped in a sheltered col to prepare for a fire and a picnic.

Today's picnic is just the first attempt, and at this time, they can't realize that in the long days to come, the four people and one cat will work together tacitly, and the scene in front of them will become the norm in the adventure journey.

"Lao Bai, you have the greatest ability, and you have the most light skills, try to run a little more distance towards the north and expand the area of divine exploration. Come back and let us know if there's a new harvest!"

Bai Yujing nodded happily and rushed into the wind and snow in front of him.

"Shoko, your task is to go and collect some dry firewood nearby and try to find a water source. Otherwise, we'll just have to drink snow water. ”

Among the four people in the group, the weakest is Wang Xiang, and he can only do the dirty work. Fortunately, before leaving Goose City, he was mentally prepared, knowing that with his own conditions, it was a great opportunity to follow Wu Bencao, and it was too late to be grateful, so he didn't dare to pick the fat and the thin.

Without saying a word, he walked towards the forest.

Wu Bencao was not very relieved, and said again: "Xiao Tired, you can go with him." His foundation is relatively poor, if you encounter a powerful demon beast, most of them can't deal with it, after you bite the prey, don't eat alone, remember to drag it back to share!"

Xiao Greasy screamed excitedly, as an ancient demon beast, it has been suppressing its innate wild temper, today the master is willing to let it go, it can't ask for it, quite a dragon into the sea, want to be majestic in the mountains and forests.

It swooped out and rushed in front of Wang Xiang.

Wu Bencao finally looked at Xiao Ai and sighed, "I don't need your help, just sit there obediently." Move less now, eat less later, and leave us a few more bites, it's better than anything else......"

Xiao Ai scratched his head and said shyly: "Hehe, don't worry, I won't eat alone, I will definitely leave a horse leg for each of you!"

Wu Bencao was speechless, and said in his heart, you are really bold......

He took out a large iron pot from the ring and filled it with snow from the ground, ready to melt it into water to wash the horse's meat. Then he took off his black knife and walked toward the steed.

Among the four, he is the backbone and the head chef, responsible for cooking, and he has to do the bloody work of killing horses. To be honest, since he was a child, he had never slaughtered livestock with his own hands, and when he encountered this kind of thing for the first time, he was inevitably a little flustered.

At this time, he deeply realized how difficult a picnic is compared to indoor cooking.

"Meng'er, I need your help. Are the kitchen and bathroom modes provided by the system, such as water and electricity, only effective indoors? We are in the snow and ice, and it is difficult to even make a fire, can you get the power out of the socket?"

Before leaving Goose City, he didn't bring those kitchen utensils from the wormwood bar. The reason is very simple, the space for Na Ring is limited, and he can't carry too many sundries, and after he arrives in Chang'an, he can spend money to find a system to buy at any time, and he doesn't have to pick on these little things.

But before that, he really hadn't thought about the picnic scenario.

Meng'er replied: [The system has a picnic mode, which can provide relatively convenient cooking conditions. However, you haven't unlocked it yet, and I can tell you unequivocally that this opportunity won't come up anytime soon, so for now, you'd better be self-reliant!]

Wu Bencao rubbed his brows, unwilling to waste time on this and kill the horse.

After a while, Wang Xiang came back from the mountains, carried a large pile of dry firewood, and began to make a fire to burn snow water.

Wu Bencao peeled the horse's skin and asked, "What about Xiao Greasy, why didn't it come back?"

Wang Xiang said helplessly: "I have low skills, unlike you and Uncle Bai, who can communicate with demon beasts. Well, even if I could understand it, I still wouldn't be able to control it......"

He is telling the truth.

In terms of supernatural powers, pets can easily crush him, his status in the team is the lowest, just like the sand monk, hard work, hard work, no need to worry about its safety.

When Wu Bencao heard this, he couldn't say anything more, so he was busy preparing for the barbecue.

About half an hour passed, and the horse meat was almost cooked, and the hot aroma permeated the col. Xiao Ai and Wang Xiang sat side by side, like two little beggars, staring at the oily barbecue and swallowing their saliva.

At this time, Bai Yujing also stepped back into the air, dusty and covered with snow.

Wu Bencao greeted him, handed him a bowl of hot water, and asked, "How is it? You have been there for so long, you must have discovered something, right?"

Bai Yujing drank it all, spat hot air in his mouth, and said with a wicked smile: "There is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

Wu Bencao said lightly: "I want to scold you first." ”

Bai Yujing saw that he was not in the mood to joke, and confessed: "Sixty miles north of here, there is an army encamped, and there must be at least 100,000 people. If we had hurried away, we would have been able to reach the barracks when it got dark, but I was afraid that they were not good people, so I didn't alarm them. ”

The news is not good or bad.

If that army is willing to receive them and provide accommodation, of course it is a good thing. But the problem is that the other party is outnumbered, and they may not be treated with them, if there are evil intentions, the soldiers meet each other, even if Lao Bai is strong, it is impossible to match the 100,000 soldiers and protect Wu Bencao and the three of them.

In the face of the mighty military might, the individual is still too small.

Before Wu Bencao and others find out the other party's attitude, it is not appropriate to take refuge immediately.

Wu Bencao frowned and asked, "Like us, they are also camping in the wild?"

Bai Yujing nodded, "Yes." As it seemed, the next market town was still far away, and they knew that it would be difficult to reach it overnight, so they stopped their march and chose to stay there for the night. ”

Wu Bencao turned around and walked to the grill, took off the horse meat, put it in front of the three people, and said: "Our dinner is ready, we can fill our stomachs, and we are not hungry, so there is no need to deal with **." ”

As he spoke, Wang Xiang cut off a horse leg, first to Lao Bai, who was working hard, then to Xiao Ai, followed by Wu Bencao, and finally took care of eating meat for himself.

Wu Bencao continued: "And I'm confused, the main forces of the Tang Dynasty are all stationed on the border, which is far away from here. With such a large army in front of them, it looks like a march passing by, what do they want to do?"
