If that person is harmless to others, it is absolutely unreasonable to simply come to deceive others, this kind of thing that obviously harms himself and is not beneficial to others, not many people will do it, with the old man's bearing, it is obvious that he will not panic when he is full.

After pondering for a long time, Wang Xu said in a deep voice: "Don't make judgments for the time being, maybe this mountain is more secret, and we will make a decision after careful investigation." ”

After that, several people wandered around Makino and Asaka for several days, asking around about the location of Asakayama, but they found nothing.

People only know various place names such as Lugu Mountain, Qingyan Mountain, Yunmeng Mountain, Black Mountain, etc., as for Chaoge Mountain, most people have never even heard of it, and at this time, Wang Xu's body is also getting worse day by day, and everyone is getting more and more anxious.

Until one day I met an elderly man who was chopping wood, and he laughed and persuaded him: "I don't know how you learned the name of this Asagayama, but you can't find it anyway." ”

"Why?" Zhou Zhi asked.

The old man smiled and said: "Because it is a legendary mountain at all, I have heard from my ancestors that there are many divine beasts, demon beasts, poisonous weeds all over it, and it is named after the song of the court." But in fact, I have never heard of anyone who has seen it, as far as I know, there is a book called "The Book of Mountains and Seas", which is recorded, but it is a pity that I, a people of the mountains and wilderness, have never seen it. ”

"I see, thank you uncle."

After saying goodbye to the old man, several people were a little dazed because of this bad news, and they didn't know what to do next.

Zhou Zhi said anxiously: "The boss's body is not as good as day by day, and it is not a way to find it like this!" ”

At this time, Wang Xu was already very weak, his face was pale, and the frequency of poison was getting higher and higher. Even the anti-poison drugs that are configured are about to be overwhelmed.

"So what to do? The place of growth recorded in the Taiping Technique. We've been to see it too. Nope! ”

Zhang Ningqing's beautiful face was full of sadness, and she looked at Wang Xu, who could only sit in a simple carriage, and her tone was slightly choked.

"It's really not okay to go on like this, it's not worth wasting time for a legendary mountain." Although Ling Wanqing was also anxious, her mind was much calmer, she thought about it for a while, and asked, "Zhang Ning, what about the other places recorded in the Taiping Technique?" And also. Your father has told you about this, has he revealed any clues, has he seen it with his own eyes? ”

"My father must have seen it with his own eyes, otherwise I wouldn't be so sure that there is one in Hebei." Zhang Ning immediately recalled: "At the beginning, when my father told me about this, he was quite emotional, and carefully described the appearance and characteristics of those strange grasses, many of which were not even recorded in the Taiping Technique, but he didn't tell me where he had seen them. ”

"Huh!" Huang Xu sighed heavily, angry but helpless.

Zhou Zhi saw that everyone's feelings were low. Confused, take a deep breath. In an unquestionable tone, he suddenly said: "Forget it, don't say anything about it, don't look for Chaoge Mountain, we are looking for all the growth places recorded in the "Taiping Technique", maybe there is a chance." ”

"That's all it can be." Ling Wanqing's charming face was full of sorrow.

Zhou Zhi played the role of a leader at this time, and asked decisively: "Zhang Ning, apart from the Chaoge Muye area, where is the nearest growth place?" ”

"Deep in the mountains north of Montenegro."

"Okay, then go north." Zhou Zhi set the direction with rare strictness.

The group has been going north for a long time, the winter is gradually passing, the early spring is coming, and it is also the rainy season, so the road between the mountains and forests has become extremely rugged.

And Wang Xu's body is getting worse and worse, his mind is gradually confused, sometimes awake, sometimes unconscious, after entering the mountain, he can't be loaded in a carriage, so he can only rely on Zhou Zhi and Huang Xu to carry him in turn, coming in the wind and going in the rain, and it is hard work.

For a whole month, they marched through the mountains, marching firmly for what little hope they had.

Ling Wanqing became more and more silent, this spy leader with a heart like iron was exhausted physically and mentally, just because her weakest link was suffering.

Zhang Ning is no longer reckless, no longer hard-mouthed, she has completely understood, I don't know when, maybe it was because of the tall figure when she was a child, maybe it was the free and easy man later, or maybe it was the bastard who teased her, which has been deeply imprinted in her heart.

From the moment Wang Xu broke Guangzong and let her go, and she vowed to take revenge, her life has been entangled with this man.

For her short life of more than twenty years, this person occupies most of her time and soul, and all her contradictions, all her thoughts, and all her qiē are fighting with this man.

Her intellect made her respect this man, and respect the heart and courage that had the world in mind.

Her hatred made her never forget this man, she hated him for taking away her warm home and her father who loved her.

Her resentment made her vent to this man, he complained about this troubled world and fate, but there was no specific carrier, so he could only transfer it to this man.

Her weakness made her yearn for this man, because of the strength of this man in front of her.

Her feelings made her at a loss for this man, because she understood that this man was giving her hope to live in a unique way, encouraging her to be brave, and encouraging her to get rid of the past.

Perhaps neither of them realized that this qiē qiē inadvertently formed two terrible words - conquest.

Naked conquest, savage and primitive conquest in troubled times.

At this moment, the conqueror has fallen, which means that the qiē she is chasing is about to disappear, and if there is no new hope, then it will be a collapse.

In every quiet night, tears always pass through those beautiful eyes, and in the cold mountain wind, the trembling shoulders are so weak that people regret it.

In a daze, everyone trekked in the mountains for more than half a month, searching for the main growth places recorded in the "Taiping Technique", but unfortunately they didn't even see the shadow of the purple blood nether root, but Wang Xu's body could no longer hold on.

"Let's rest, Huang Xu, you go get some game." Zhou Zhi's slightly tired voice broke the silence in the mountain forest.

"Good!" Huang Xu's face was also very bad, and he responded and disappeared into the dense forest.

Zhang Ning and Ling Wanqing, the two beauties, were even more physically and mentally exhausted, with red and swollen eyes and sunken cheeks. Completely lost his usual demeanor.

Zhou Zhi, who loves to play the most on weekdays. I wasn't in the mood at the moment. His face was heavy, and he only cared about picking up dry branches.

After a while, several people lit a bonfire, and Huang Xu used a knife to pass through the washed and peeled hare, slowly turning and roasting, and the fat and fat dripped into the fire and crackled.

Zhou Zhi silently wiped his waist knife, it was the first time in so many years that he was so long-lasting. "Commander Ling, Zhang Ning. Tomorrow we will go south and go back to Jingzhou! ”

Ling Wanqing, Zhang Ning, and Huang Xu all trembled when they heard this.

"Do you really want to give up?" Ling Wanqing asked helplessly, with a haggard face.

"It's not that I give up, but I can't help it, I've looked for all the places I should be looking for, and now I should think about bringing the boss back to the south." Zhou Zhi said lightly.

"No, if you want to go, I must find it." Zhang Ning pursed his lips, and his red and swollen eyes once again welled up with bean-sized tears.

"In three to five days at most, the boss will definitely die. What's the use of finding medicine if everyone is dead? Zhou Zhi said bitterly.

In fact, everyone knows it very well. It's just that he has always refused to accept it, and at this moment, he was picked by Zhou Zhi, so he had no excuse, and they all fell into silence again, only the suppressed whimpering voices of Ling Wanqing and Zhang Ning echoed from time to time.

It didn't seem to want them to be too sad, after a while, although Zhou Zhi was still staring at the knife in his hand, he said leisurely: "The boss should be sober once or twice, if you have anything to say, just say it quickly, if you hesitate any longer, you will never have a chance in this life, don't regret it for life." ”

Ling Wanqing and Zhang Ning's delicate bodies trembled imperceptibly, and it took a long time for them to soften, snuggling up to each other, Ling Wanqing said sadly: "What's the use of saying it?" ”

"It's useless, but at least you said it, at least you let him know it yourself." Zhou Zhi said lightly, his eyes still staring at his knife.

"But ......"

"Nothing." Zhou Zhi was rarely strong, raised his head and stared at Ling Wanqing and Zhang Ning. "One of you has low self-esteem, and the other carries a huge burden, don't you get tired of living? I'm just reminding you that blindly avoiding and waiting can only make people feel sorry for themselves and die, and only by facing it will there be results, no matter what the result is, at least get rid of the life that is spinning in place. ”

"Of course, I have no right to ask what you choose."

Zhou Zhi's words made the hearts of the two women set off monstrous waves, their faces changed, and their eyes were blank.

"Water...... Water ......"

A faint moan suddenly sounded, instantly attracting everyone's attention, it was Wang Xu who was lying next to him in a coma.

"Huang Xu, quickly bring the water bag." Ling Wanqing shouted anxiously.

"It's coming!" Huang Xu didn't care about roasting the rabbit at this moment, picked up the water bag and strode to the side.

Zhang Ning lifted Wang Xu's head and lay down on his chest.

With a few sounds of "grunt, grunt", Wang Xu's breathing became much steater, and he slowly opened his hazy eyes under the anxious gaze of everyone.

Zhou Zhi suddenly choked up and said, "Boss, you finally woke up, you were in a coma for two days this time, and you couldn't even pour water into it." ”

"Hehe, let you worry about it." Wang Xu's voice was particularly weak, but he still reluctantly smiled at everyone.

At this moment, not only Ling Wanqing and Zhang Ning, but even Zhou Zhi and Huang Xu couldn't control it anymore, and tears fell down their eyes, but no one spoke.

"Hey, what are you doing here, aren't there two days left before you die? Start crying now, it's early, don't cry! ”

"Lord!" Huang Xu choked and shouted.

Although Wang Xu's mood was also extremely complicated, he still comforted him and said: "Life and death are fate, everyone will have this day, it doesn't matter." Besides, now that Shuzhong has been decided, Jingzhou has a stable rear, and the foundation has been formed, after I leave, everyone can also have a place to live and live. ”

"Boss, but if it's undecided today, if we don't have you, we can't hold it!" Zhou Zhi cried bitterly.

"Eh, how do you say such frustrating words." Wang Xu looked at Zhou Zhi with a little reprimand, shook his head and said: "Although Cao Cao and Sun Jian are powerful, my Jingzhou is not weak, after I leave, as long as you work together, you may not be able to calm the world." Before going north, everything that should be entrusted has been handed over, and although I am dead, you must make our dreams come true. ”

"Don't worry, the lord will definitely assist the young master to achieve great things." Huang Xuyinglang's face was already stained with tears, but his tone was infinitely firm.

"So, please."

Wang Xu gritted his teeth and said this, but he couldn't control his feelings anymore, he couldn't bear his family, his brothers, and his children who hadn't seen each other yet!

He can't let go, he can't let go of the dream in his heart, and he can't let go of the goal that he has worked hard for so many years!

A teardrop slowly slipped from the corner of her eye, crystal clear!

It tells the story of Wang Xurong's fifteen years of horses, a qiē in the southern and northern wars!

It also tells of his infinite loneliness, sorrow, and unwillingness...... (To be continued......)
