Chapter 56: Up the Mountain

Early the next morning, in front of the manor.

Cui Haoran waved his hand and motioned for several of his guards and maids to go back, and then took Wang Hu, Luo Biao, and Tong Lao into a carriage together.

Wang Hu and Luo Biao were driving in front, Tong Lao and Cui Haoran were sitting in the carriage, and several people in the group were dressed in fur suits with tight belts.

During this period, Tong Lao also took out a mink brocade hat from his leather bag and put it on Cui Haoran, which further deepened Cui Haoran's impression of this old housekeeper, and the old housekeeper's behavior added a lot of points to Cui Haoran's heart.

About half a day, the carriage came to the foot of Daqingshan Mountain, and the group came to a hidden cave, put the carriage away, each took his weapon, and walked up the mountain.

On the way, Wang Hu asked Tong Lao why he knew about such a hidden cave, and Tong Lao said that it was the shelter of the hunters under the mountain before entering the mountain, and most of those hunters belonged to the Hou Mansion, so the cave could be regarded as the Hou Mansion.

Wang Hu asked the question in Cui Haoran's heart, Cui Haoran didn't say much, and the group hurried up the mountain.

Along the way, Tong Lao took the trouble to tell Cui Haoran about some taboos on the mountain, Cui Haoran did not tell Tong Lao that he was actually very good, but just listened to Tong Lao's explanation silently.

After about two hours, Cui Haoran and his party began to enter the sparsely populated places in the deep mountains and old forests, and everyone became cautious, rarely speaking loudly, all in simple sign language or whispering in close ears.

To be honest, Cui Haoran had no experience in hunting in the mountains, so along the way, the group followed Tong Lao's instructions and quietly and slowly looked into the depths of the woods.

Although he has perceptual skills, it is only perception, and he does not have this kind of ordinary people's hunting experience, so he is almost silent, and only acts a little relaxed with a spear in his hand.

This time he went up the mountain, he planned to come to the mountains to hunt demon beasts, evaluate the combat effectiveness of the demon beasts in this world, and then evaluate the combat effectiveness of ordinary people. If you encounter the likes of rogue bandits, you can further evaluate the combat effectiveness of the people of this world.

Or to put it directly, he just wants to evaluate the general combat effectiveness and top combat effectiveness of the people of the Lu country where he is located, according to his understanding, the general demon beast can be regarded as the top combat power of the Lu country.

Because it is rumored that the top warrior of the Lu country is also the level of the demon beast, Cui Haoran urgently needs to go into the mountain to evaluate the combat effectiveness of the demon beast.

Daqingshan, a radius of many thousand miles, Qingshan is surrounded by six countries, and Lu is only one of them.

Liuhe, the capital of the Lu Kingdom, is adjacent to Daqing Mountain, which is the same as if one day even if he is defeated, he can escape into the depths of the mountain.

At this time, Cui Haoran and his entourage went far and far into the mountains, during which they encountered three elk, all of whom were killed by an arrow from Tong Lao.

Wang Hu found dry firewood, Luo Biao found clean water, lit a bonfire, and Tong Lao roasted the elk.

Watching Tong Lao cut the elk's thighs one by one, sprinkled with spices, Cui Haoran, who was sitting on the stone on the side, said jokingly:

"Tong Lao, look at your barbecue posture, you are a veteran! Entertainer? ”

"That is, Your Highness, my old copper stayed in the Zhuangzi after retiring, and I was really bored and went up the mountain to hunt with the hunters, not to mention anything else, my old copper still knows the way in this old forest."

As he spoke, an elk was placed on the fire, and Yuanshan Copper began to roast the whole deer.

Seeing this, Cui Haoran didn't say much, turned his head to Luo Biao, who was cleaning out a sleeping place for him, and said:

"Luo Biao, I'll clean up the deerskin cut off by Tong Lao in a while, and take it back to make some deerskin boots for the guards."

"Yes, Your Highness." Luo Biao clenched his fists and said.

"You are my close guards and butlers, don't be inhibited here and now, be casual." Seeing Luo Biao clenching his fists and solemnly agreeing, Cui Haoran added.

After a while, Wang Hu took out some pastries prepared by the maid in the Zhuangzi from the leather bag he was carrying and brought them to Cui Haoran, who took them and said to Wang Hu:

"You also prepare some for Luo Biao and Tong Lao, and everyone eats together. Don't forget to keep a copy for yourself. ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

An hour later, the sun went down and it was getting dark. Tong Lao finally finished roasting his whole sheep.

Tong Lao cut off the cooked meat on the elk's thigh, put it on a simple silver plate, and brought it to Cui Haoran.

Taking the plate and looking at the extremely light and thin silver plate, Cui Haoran said with a smile: "I can't see it, Tong Lao, your leather bag is still a treasure chest." ”

"Your Highness has praised it falsely, if you come out more, you will know what you need to bring, in the wilderness, this silver plate can not only hold food and water, but also sometimes be used to test poison." The bronze old man had a smug look on his face.

Picking up the plate, Cui Haoran put the venison in his mouth, not to mention, it tasted really good. Delicious and delicious, venison with tendons, elastic teeth, delicious in the world.

Tong Lao looked at Cui Haoran's face with surprise and joy, so he said with a smile:

"Your Highness, venison has the effect of nourishing the spleen and stomach, nourishing the liver and blood, and aphrodisiac and benefiting essence. It can also cure fatigue and thinness, you eat more. ”

After Cui Haoran heard this, his mind was full of ellipses...... Do I look like yang deficiency? Do I need to eat more and replenish more?

Wang Hu, who was already greedy on the side, took the venison handed over by Tong Lao, and also said:

"Your Highness, this elk meat is mainly for kidney deficiency, replenishment of deficiency, relief of back pain, epistaxis, bruises, rabies and wine to treat pulmonary dystrophy and vomit blood. It has the effect of greatly replenishing deficiency, benefiting sperm and blood, detoxifying acne and drug poison. ”

Cui Haoran glanced at Wang Hu and said, "Eat yours, you eat more and make up more." If you enter a mountain, you won't want it. ”

Luo Biao and Tong Lao on the side laughed together when they saw Wang Hu's embarrassment.

After eating the venison, it was already dark, and Wang Hu and Luo Biao took turns to be on duty at night. Tong Lao sprinkled a circle of homemade unknown powder around the tent, saying that it was a good thing to repel mosquitoes and insects.

Cui Haoran didn't care about him, and soon after, Cui Haoran and Tong Lao each sat on a mound of stones and began to meditate and practice.

And Wang Hu fell asleep beside the bonfire, as for Luo Biao, staring at a pair of tiger eyes, he kept paying attention to the surrounding flowers and trees, and did not let go of anything inappropriate.

In the middle of the night, Wang Hu quietly replaced Luo Biao, yawning and paying attention to the surrounding night.

The sound of birds and unknown insects from time to time in the deep forest made this man with a strong body and name a little nervous, and he seemed to be a little nervous when he first went deep into Daqing Mountain.

The mountain was dark, and the bonfire in front of him occasionally crackled, Wang Hu looked at Cui Haoran, who was meditating, and his heart was inexplicably relaxed.

So, I looked away and started to get up at night.

So far, the first day of the ascent has been spent in a relaxed way.
