Chapter 571: Rice Flower Fish
Now, Mu Ying is going to Mengde, that is, the cavalry unit located in the rear of the flank.
The current Wuhun Empire army, it can be said that both infantry and cavalry are very strong rapid mobility forces, but the cavalry units are not equipped with artillery, and the firepower is not strong enough.
In addition, the main projectile weapon was the recurve composite bow, which was the weakest of the three standard weapons, so most of the cavalry was placed in the flanks and rear.
If the front army is fighting well, the cavalry can be dispatched from the flank and rear to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and if the front army is unfavorable, the rear cavalry can choose to support the infantry or choose to retreat in an orderly and rapid manner, without causing congestion.
On the road, Mu Ying looked ahead, continued to lightly step on the accelerator with one foot, and continued to lightly step on the clutch with the other, driving the car in one direction at a constant speed......
After a while, Mu Ying drove to the cavalry station, and after showing her identity token, she met Meng De drinking beer in a wooden house.
In the wooden house, Meng De's tall body sat on a wooden chair, and in one hand he picked up an extra-large beer glass with a nearly one-liter capacity, filled with ale, that is, beer.
Meng De picked up the wine glass, poured a big gulp, and let out "Ha! A hearty moan.
Mu Ying's indifferent purple pupils did not carry any trace of emotion, and her eyelids were raised, as if she was talking to Meng De, and it was like talking to herself.
"The doctor said that drinking 500 milliliters a day is the limit, and after exceeding, the liver's ability to detoxify will decrease."
Meng De glanced at it, didn't reply, but raised his chin and asked rhetorically: "You are Na Wei's bodyguard, right?" Do you have something to do with me? ”
Meng De hadn't seen Mu Ying before, so he didn't know him.
In addition, Meng De, as a senior general of the cavalry corps, has a separate telephone line connected to the wooden house, and Qian Nawei did not call to find him, which means that it is not Qian Nawei who is in trouble, but the little girl in front of her is in trouble.
Mu Ying looked at it and concisely stated her purpose.
"Do you have rice here? I want two bags. ”
Meng De raised his eyebrows.
"Rice? What do you want rice for? Want to try something new? ”
The standard food in the army of the Wuhun Empire is flour, and the rice is almost never cooked.
In front of Meng De, the expression on Mu Ying's face was still indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with Meng De.
"It's nothing, you can do whatever you want, just give it to me."
"Oh"
Meng De responded. He actually didn't want to make it convenient for this girl, because Mu Ying didn't say anything for any reason, and he didn't know what Mu Ying wanted to do.
However, after all, Mu Ying is Qian Nawei's person, no matter what Qian Nawei says, she is the boss, she must give face, and her subordinates should also give convenience.
After a moment's thought, Meng De nodded.
"Alright, you can go to the kitchen and take two bags and go."
While speaking, Meng De threw out a token to Mu Ying, "Remember to bring the token back to me." ”
Mu Ying took it, turned around, said "thank you" succinctly, and walked out of Meng De's wooden house.
Out of the wooden house, Mu Ying walked a few streets, entered the kitchen, took the rice with the token given by Meng De, then returned the token to Meng De, and finally drove away.
After a while, Mu Ying drove back to Qian Nawei's camp and entered the wooden house, where Qian Nawei was meditating and cultivating.
Mu Ying looked at it and asked Qian Nawei.
"Navi, are you leaving tomorrow?"
Qian Nawei had promised Qian Fei'er to go back in two days, and she also told several of their bodyguards that today happened to be the last day.
Hearing this, Qian Nawei woke up from her meditation, she looked at Mu Ying, shook her head helplessly, and sighed.
Mu Ying's face remained unchanged, still indifferent, but for some reason, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She looked to the side and said succinctly, "Why?" ”
"Because ......," Qian Nawei said.
It turned out that recently, there had been an attack by soul beasts in Soto City, Longxing City, and Notting City in the Barak Kingdom, and a large number of high-level flying soul beasts were dispatched to hunt and kill high-level human soul masters.
Those soul beasts are similar in appearance and appearance, with a long bird head and a human body, wings on their backs, and a golden body.
Among them, there are some rumors that they have seen a huge golden bird flying soul beast with a wingspan of more than ten meters, hunting and killing human Contra powerhouses.
Such a rumor, Qian Nawei was instantly determined, it must be the Golden Bird Clan!
It's just that Qian Nawei doesn't know why the Golden Bird Clan suddenly came down to attack humans. It stands to reason that humans are not high-quality food and prey, human fat content is not high, and the energy contained in the body of humans of the same level is not as good as that of soul beasts.
Hunting humans is better than hunting soul beasts of other races.
However, something has happened, and the Golden Bird Clan is a whole soul beast race, with strong strength, and there are a large number of high-level soul beasts in the clan at the level of tens of thousands of years.
Therefore, Qian Nawei could only postpone her trip back to Heaven Dou City.
The only good news is that the Golden Bird Clan only hunts high-level soul masters, and completely disdains ordinary people and some soul masters below the Soul Venerable, and does not completely cut off the logistics line of the Martial Spirit Empire.
In the wooden house, Mu Ying listened to Qian Nawei's narration, replied with a simple "um", then turned around and walked out of the wooden house, out of the house.
Before walking out of the wooden house, Mu Ying said a word without looking back.
"Navi, aren't you going out today? I'll go out for a while, and I won't come back for dinner in the evening, so I don't have to wait for me. ”
"Well, be careful on the road."
Qiannawei smiled and nodded.
On the other side, Mu Ying went out to the wooden house, stood on the street, looked left and right, identified the next direction, and walked in one direction of the village.
Not long after, she, that is, Mu Ying, came to a small river.
The villages on this side of the Star Luo Empire are all built on water, without water, people and animals cannot survive, and crops are not harvested.
As a result, almost every village has a small river or stream next to it, or a reservoir or lake.
At this moment, in this village where Qiannawei is camped, the small river is full of dusk water. Due to heavy rainfall, the direction of the water source caused flash floods, and the river became dark.
In addition to the turbidity of the color, there are many debris in the river, and some wood, thorn branches, and pieces of cloth are constantly washing downstream.
Mu Ying even saw a pig!
The two brothers struggled in the dusk flood, but they could not swim to the shore, so they could only rush down the dusk river.
The bank is quite deep from the bottom of the river, because it is close to the village, and the bank is deliberately reinforced and stacked, and the bank is five or six meters from the bottom of the river.
However, even so, the dusk water of the river was more than a meter short of flooding the road, which is enough to see the amount of rainfall.
Mu Ying looked at the side of the road, turned around, and walked towards a rice field.
The rice in the paddy field has been harvested once, and all the ears of rice have been cut, leaving only a foot of straw and some new shoots and seedlings growing from the straw.
This was all done by the Star Luo army, most of the villagers in the village were killed, and the rice left behind became an ownerless thing, and the Star Luo Empire army certainly would not give up this opportunity to plunder.
If it weren't for the Xingluo army's actions of "killing the poor ghosts" and "killing the rich", perhaps, the current second crop of rice, that is, late rice, would have reached a height of more than one foot long.
Mu Ying couldn't help but think.
After thinking about it, she took a deep breath, bent over, and took off her water shoes and socks.
The jade feet as white as mutton fat jade were exposed, and they were so eye-catching under the dim sky, and in an instant, several Martial Spirit Empire soldiers patrolling a little farther away all looked at each other, and their eyes were straight!
Mu Ying didn't pay attention to them, and didn't even raise her eyelids. She rolled up her trouser legs to reveal her shiny calves, then rolled up her sleeves again.
After doing all this, Mu Ying took out a bamboo basket from her soul guide bracelet.
This was done by Mu Ying in advance, there was no back cover at the bottom of the bamboo basket, it was a cylindrical shape with two openings up and down.
Holding a bamboo basket like a cylinder, Mu Ying got up, walked to the edge of the rice field, raised her feet forward, and stepped on the rice field with her jade feet as smooth as jade.
The moment she came into contact with the water flowing in the rice field, Mu Ying felt a bone-piercing coldness coming from her toes, and the coldness of that moment made her brows frown.
However, this did not stump a soul master of a top-notch snake martial soul, Mu Ying only frowned for a second or two, and immediately recovered, her face became indifferent again, as if this world had nothing to do with her.
When you enter the rice field, the soil is a little soft at first, but you can't step directly into it with a little force, and the surface feels like a whole rag with springs connected together.
The surface of the rag is very tough, and it will be slightly deformed, but it cannot be broken.
When you step on it, the deep soil will make a "gurgling ......" sound, and bubbles will emerge from underneath!
Moreover, the surface soil is still a little slippery, and Mu Ying feels that her feet are sliding along the soil to lower places, and if she is not careful, she may slip.
Is this what characterizes rice paddies?
Mu Ying looked at it and didn't pay attention to it. She held the bamboo basket she had taken out earlier in both hands, and as she walked forward, she saw that not far ahead, a basket smashed down.
"Poof!"
The water splashed, and in the basket, the crackling water splashed continuously.
There are fish!
Rice flower fish, people's name for the fish in the rice field. In the south of the Douluo Continent, that is, on the side of the Star Luo Empire, due to various reasons such as releasing water for irrigation, rising floods, plowing fields, etc., fish from rivers or streams will enter the fields.
After that, the fish grows in the rice fields, and eats the aquatic plants or mosquitoes and other foods in the rice fields, and it becomes the rice fish in people's mouths.
There is nothing special about the rice fish compared to the fish in the river, except that the rice field food is more abundant and grows faster, and that's it.
Of course, there is still an advantage, that is, when the flood rises, people cannot go to the river to catch fish. At this time, catching rice fish is the best choice.
In the current Douluo Continent, the land has not been destroyed by pesticides and chemical fertilizers, and there are many rice fish in the rice fields, in addition to this, there are quite a lot of loaches, crabs, etc.
