Horses' hooves are lined up, and flags are lined up. A large group of men and horses poured out of the mountain pass into a defensive formation, lined up, and a dark red coarse cloth flag was inserted on the cart in front, and a large bird seal script "Luo" was embroidered on the flag with black needles and threads.

A low trumpet sound sounded from the valley, and the procession began to camp in a clearing on the right in a mixed and orderly manner.

On the one hand, Luo Jun sent people to contact the doctor of the Ministry of Rites in the Chu State, and on the other hand, he sent people to inquire about the whereabouts of ordinary people.

On the top of the fence on the moon, Gongzi Boxian sat on a crossbar at the back of the camp and looked at the valley in the distance. A pair of small pink hands suddenly blindfolded Bo Xian's eyes from behind, and said in a clever voice: "Guess who I am?" ”

Bo Xian said helplessly: "Don't make trouble, except for you, who in this team will use this kind of flavor of rouge!" ”

Zhong Ying let go of her hands a little bored, looked at her sister mischievously from the side and said, "I know, who are you thinking about - Mr. doesn't know that you secretly like him." On weekdays, he always treats us as children. ”

Bo Xian felt a pang in her heart, and said with a light smile: "Aren't you just a child - if you want to talk about your feelings for Mr., I don't know whether it's respect or love?" It's just that whenever my thoughts stop, my mind is full of him. Can't shake it, and it can't be chopped.

When I can't see him, I always want to know where he is and what he's doing. When I saw it, I didn't dare to look at it directly, but my heart was ...... Always safe. ”

Zhong Ying was thoughtful, jumped to the front and said, "Who said I was a child!" You're only two years older than me—I'm not like my sister, but I'm really happy every time I see my husband, and I'm happy every time I'm scolded by him. I won't be as depressed as my sister, the next time I see Mr., Zhong Ying must make it clear to Mr. that Zhong Ying likes Mr. ”

"You ......", Bo Xian was a little annoyed, she understood that she was actually quite jealous of her sister's courage to dare to love and hate.

"Who? Who's there? Zhong Ying suddenly pulled out her sword and looked at the camp behind Bo Xian.

With Zhong Ying's shout, several guards flashed out from behind the tent, and the two pushed an old man forward.

Boxian asked, "Who is this?" ”

A soldier reported: "Back to Your Highness, this is a folk man collected during the day. Maybe he came out to go to the toilet and didn't understand the rules, which disturbed the two masters, so we will teach him a lesson. ”

Another soldier raised the whip in his hand and scolded: "Old thing who doesn't understand the rules, look at you still walking around!" ”

Bo Xian said: "Stop! I didn't see him so old, and his legs were still ......."

Zhong Ying said: "The leg is still lame, why did you even recruit the lame?" ”

The soldier said, "This man is lame, but speaking of which, this old man has a good craft." This man can make stone tools, and the general saw the stone tools made by this person in exchange for money, so he ordered this person to be recruited, saying that it would be useful in the future. ”

Bo Xian said: "Even if this is the case, we should treat each other with courtesy, not rudeness." So he stepped forward and helped the old man up and asked, "Don't be afraid, old man, what should I call him?" ”

The old man in front of him was dressed in coarse linen, his face was thin, his beard was gray, and his right leg was shortened, so he had a wooden staff under his armpit.

The old man raised his eyes and looked at Bo Xian, and said indifferently: "I don't know if it's Her Royal Highness the Princess, the old man is offended." The little old man's surname is Shi, he can make stone tools, thanks to the princess Her Royal Highness, the old man is willing to serve in the army, just to be able to go to Shenlu with the army, and see the feat of the multinational alliance, it is not in vain. ”

Bo Xian smiled: "Old man, you are so old, you still have this curiosity, then go with me and the others, but there are rules in the army, don't walk around." ”

The old man agreed, and was taken down by the sergeant.

Looking at the old man's back, Bo Xian and Zhong Ying didn't know that this was the Chu man Bian He that their husband was looking for, and ordinary people had arrived at the Shenlu Center at this time under the guidance of Xilan.

……

An open green plain surrounded by high platforms. The pedestal in front of it is full of various flags waving in the wind, and each flag is embroidered with large characters representing the name of the country: Ba, Yong, Shen, Deng, Yun ......, these are the vassal states of the current Chu State. And Luo has not yet arrived, so there is no flag of Luo here.

The alliance has not yet begun, and the king of Chu has not yet arrived. Therefore, the countries that arrived first had already set up camp in the surrounding areas, and the lords began to move among themselves, and some even sat together to watch the fight and other things to entertain themselves, taking the opportunity to make diplomatic relations.

Vendors who had arrived on hearing the news took the opportunity to peddle their wares near the barracks. A small bazaar gradually formed not far from the place where the alliance was held, and it was very lively with merchants, soldiers, and soldiers.

In the crowd, a Tujia girl lingered among the vendors with a curious face, and a masked man suddenly grabbed the back of her neck, squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, and said: "Grandma, I didn't bring you here to go shopping, open my eyes and look at it, are there any old stones!" ”

It was Sealand who was being carried, and Sealand said: "Look at it! Look at it! I said, Mr. Jian, how strange it is that you wear a big bronze face all day long. ”

The ordinary man behind the mask: "This is the distress of the handsome guy, you don't understand, hurry up and work, find someone!" ”

Sealand was about to retort, when a riot suddenly broke out in the crowd behind, a group of soldiers in iron armor and holding long slings separated the crowd on both sides, and a group of cavalry slowly drove through the middle of the road, one of them shouted: "The king has arrived, and the idle people are waiting to retreat!" ”

Ordinary people pulled Sealand to hide behind the crowd, only to see a group of heavily armed soldiers escorting a car, in front of which was a vertical car with an umbrella-shaped canopy, and behind was a box-type car, and the car was not rich but expensive.

When one of the cars passed, ordinary people suddenly felt something, and it seemed that the people in the car also felt something, only to see the bamboo curtain on the window next to the car move slightly and unknowingly, and after a while, it returned to calm.

Ordinary people looked at the convoy and became more and more uneasy in their hearts.
