Chapter 302: Returning home
Pei Qian couldn't believe his eyes, his expression at the moment was like a fool, but he didn't realize it.
Pei Qian rubbed his eyes, but there was still only a small cave in front of him, which looked empty and empty, and there was nothing.
Why, this is completely different from what I imagined.
No matter how many times Pei Qian rubbed his eyes, the scenery in front of him still did not change in the slightest.
A slight breeze blew in softly through the small holes that had been hewn out.
The originally imagined scene did not appear in the slightest. Today's Pei Qian is indeed a little skeptical about life. He had gone through a lot of hardship to get here, but he didn't see anything.
Not to mention grain and grass, there is not even a shadow of an ant here!
There was a hint of movement behind him, and Pei Qian turned around lightly and looked at the soldier who was slowly moving in. The soldier heard that there was no movement in the cave for a long time, and thought that something had happened to the second prince, and he couldn't care about his injuries at the moment, so he hurried over to take a look. If something happens to the second prince, then his life will be gone, where can he take care of the injuries on his body?
After the soldiers came in, they saw that Pei Qian seemed to have a trace of sluggishness and trance, and he was a little relieved in his heart, fortunately, the second prince was fine. But why did he look like this?
No, what about the lost grain and grass?
The soldier remembered the purpose of their visit this time, and quickly stretched his neck and looked behind Pei Qian, but what the soldier saw was also an empty scene.
Here, there is nothing at all.
The soldier's eyes widened, looking at the scene in front of him in disbelief, and he couldn't care about the rudeness, so he couldn't help but ask: "Second prince, where did all that grain and grass go?" ”
Pei Qian's expression distorted a little more.
Grain and grass, grain and grass! How did he know where to go! He wanted to ask that question too! Who can answer that!
Pei Qian tried his best to suppress the anger that was almost gushing out in his heart, and finally forcibly suppressed it. At the last moment, Pei Qian still maintained his good cultivation and did not expose the intense emotions in his heart.
There was nothing wrong with the soldier in front of him, even if he was angry at him, it didn't make the slightest sense.
Now, he really should think carefully about what went wrong.
The soldier next to him looked at Pei Qian's dull expression, as if he remembered something, and hurriedly spoke again: "Second prince, General Lu, aren't they going in the other direction?" Perhaps, the lost grain and grass is not here, but on the other side? ”
When Pei Qian heard this, he immediately remembered that they had gone separately, and there was another way!
His eyes lit up slightly, this soldier made sense, maybe the path they took was wrong from the beginning. These secret passages are just to confuse their eyes. In fact, the place where the grain and grass are stored is not here at all!
Maybe now, Lu Fei and the others have already found grain and grass. Counting the time, they have already arrived, and maybe they have already started to carry grain and grass by now.
Pei Qian thought like this, and then he felt a lot better in his heart.
After all, as soon as Fang just came in, this impact was indeed too big for him.
It's like a person who wants to get something in his heart, but after going through a lot of hardship, he finds that there is nothing at all. No matter how strong this person's heart is, he will eventually have some breakdowns. Because of the reality, it really hit Pei Qian hard.
But what the soldier said gave him a glimmer of hope in his heart.
"You're right, presumably General Lu and them have already found grain and grass at this time. Let's go, get out of here, go to their side! ”
After Pei Qian finished speaking, he no longer looked at the cave, not even the slightest nostalgia. He strode out, just about to walk in the direction Lu Fei and the others were walking.
At this time, several people came up to me.
The person on the other side saw Pei Qian while walking, and the man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Found the second prince, the second prince, can you find grain and grass here?" ”
Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, Pei Qian's footsteps stopped abruptly.
He looked at the few people who walked over from him in a bit of a daze, the person in front of him raised the torch in his hand, and Pei Qian suddenly saw their faces clearly.
Isn't it General Meng who is the leader? Behind him, stood Lu Fei, who also had a hint of joy on his face. But after seeing Pei Qian's somewhat complicated expression, Lu Fei and the others looked at each other, and a trace of doubt flashed in their eyes.
Pei Qian's mood at the moment can indeed be described as complicated. He originally thought that Lu Fei and the others must have found grain and grass. But the men were empty-handed, and asked him if he had found food and grass.
The meaning was already obvious, and they did not find food or grass. And the grain and grass, I didn't find it here.
Anger, unwillingness, helplessness, all kinds of emotions were intertwined, all poured into Pei Qian's heart, and his expression management at the moment was indeed a little broken.
Seeing Pei Qian, whose expression was obviously wrong, Lu Fei keenly sensed that something was wrong.
There was not the slightest joy on the face of the second prince, could it be that he did not find grain and grass on his side.
Lu Fei looked behind Pei Qian and saw the cave with light. But Lu Fei didn't think that there would be grain and grass in it. If there was something they wanted in it, the second prince would not have this expression.
God knows, how much the second prince wants to find that batch of grain and grass, it is no exaggeration to say that compared to those of them who are generals, the mood is even stronger.
"Second prince, what's wrong with you?"
General Meng next to him didn't notice Pei Qian's emotions for a while, but after finding that there was something wrong with his expression, he couldn't help but ask.
Pei Qian still didn't say anything.
Lu Fei glanced at a soldier who was limping out behind Pei Qian, and secretly cast an inquiring look at him.
The soldier glanced at the second prince with some horror, although the second prince did not show his emotions, the momentum on his body was indeed a little scary. The soldier must have thought that the second prince might kill himself in a fit of rage. Fortunately, the second prince did not harm the innocent.
Then, the soldier rushed to Lu Fei and shook his head slightly.
Lu Fei immediately understood what the soldier meant, he glanced at Pei Qian, who was still silent, and knew that the second prince's heart must have suffered a huge impact at this moment, and it was not so easy to recover.
After all, when the second prince discovered that secret passage, there was more joy on his face than anyone else.
It seems that this second prince really wants to make meritorious contributions, but right now, those grains and grasses are not in this secret passage at all, what is going on?
Pei Qian didn't speak, and several people didn't speak for a while. For a moment, the atmosphere fell into embarrassment.
Pei Qian was silent for a long time, and after he finally suppressed his anger and unwillingness a little, he said lightly: "Lu Fei, you are in another secret passage, have you encountered anything?" ”
Before Lu Fei could talk, General Meng, who couldn't observe words and expressions, had already said in a loud voice: "Back to the second prince, the subordinates walked on that road, and they didn't touch anything at all, not even a mouse, and they walked for a long time and didn't find anything." Later, I found out that the subordinates had been circling in the same place, and there was no exit at all, so the subordinates came to find the second prince. ”
Pei Qian: "......" dare to be affectionate, Lu Fei and the road they walked did not encounter the slightest danger at all, not to mention any traps and traps. But why did he encounter so many things on this road? What's even more annoying is that at the end, I found that I had experienced so many bad things and didn't get anything in return!
When Lu Fei heard General Meng say this, he almost covered his big mouth. This General Meng is really a bad brain, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the mood of the second prince is not very good at the moment, and he dares to say so. Isn't this obvious, to hit the muzzle?
Lu Fei took advantage of the moment when Pei Qian was distracted, secretly pulled General Meng's sleeve and gave him a warning with his eyes. Although General Meng was a little confused, the atmosphere was wrong, even if he was stupid, he felt it at the moment. Therefore, General Meng did not dare to speak out.
At this moment, the expression on the face of the second prince is indeed a little terrifying, where is there still the warmth when they first met.
It's like a devil in hell!
And looking at the clothes of the second prince, they found that the second prince at this moment looked a little embarrassed. Even if the second prince didn't mention it, Lu Fei could probably imagine what he had experienced on this journey.
Pei Qian took a deep breath, then endured it, and said lightly: "This road has already been walked by the prince, although there are many mechanisms, but there are ...... inside Nothing. It seems that this grain and grass is not in this secret passage, and it may be hidden in other places. At the moment, it's not a good idea to stay here, and another day, let the soldiers in and take a closer look. ”
After Pei Qian said this, there was already a trace of fatigue in his eyes, and the continuous nervous tension really made him very tired. Now, he just wants to get out of here, take a rest first, and then think carefully about whether he missed something on the way.
What the hell did he miss?
Pei Qian thought about it as he walked out.
This cave is full of stones, and it is very strong, even if Lu Fei and the others want to smash it open, but without special tools, it is very difficult.
They tried, and they quickly gave up.
Several people walked for more than an hour before finally returning to the granary.
As soon as Pei Qian came out, he went straight to his camp.
Not long after Lu Fei and a few people came out, a big general rushed in, looked at them with a happy face and said, "Guess, who is coming?" ”
