Chapter 304: The Mountains and Forests Change to the New Master (7)
After cleaning up the kitchen and bolting the doors of the courtyard, Qi Ke flashed back to the Thousand Lotus Realm, and quickly arranged the wolves and the spare gunpowder test site overnight, so as not to reveal the stuffing tomorrow.
When it came to the meeting time agreed upon the next day, Bai Qing and the others saw a neat group of wolves, each wolf had a dusty puff on its back, and the left and right pockets were filled with things, but there was a layer of cloth cover on the pocket, so they couldn't see what was loaded, only bulging.
The wolves all wore cowhide collars around their necks, the blacksmiths made hardware made of copper according to the drawings given by Qi Ke, and the king's collar also hung its exclusive silver name tag.
At first glance, there is a master.
"Your wolves are really spirited, and the king seems to be fatter than last time?"
"That's a thick jacket, not fat."
The northern wolf is already large, bursting in winter, and all of them are as strong as bears, and they act like moving hills.
Fortunately, the collar was made recently, and the thickness of the hair was also included when measuring the neck circumference, and the size of the collar made was just not to strangle them, if it was done in summer, Qi Ke felt that he was likely to make a mistake in size.
After the number of people was counted, all the staff arrived, and then set off.
The wolves walked in front, Qi Ke followed behind with a long wooden stick as a trekking pole, and Bai Qing and the others followed behind her.
Walking on the mountain road consumes physical strength, and Qi Ke's physical strength is indisputably the worst among them, so she walks with her head bored, and does not talk to anyone at all, and occasionally hears a few words that come from the wind, which are all chatting with the men behind her.
When the village was completely left behind, the path that the crowd had stepped out of was over, and the next was the territory of the wolves, thanks to which they had a new beast path, and the path that Yuan Ting walked out of when he was a hunter before had long since lost the slightest trace, if it weren't for the wolf to open the way, she would have gotten lost if Qi Ke came by herself, after all, she took shortcuts back and forth to transit in the Thousand Lotus Realm.
The king who led the way stopped at this time, leaned on the side of the road and waited for the younger brothers to cross it and continue walking, while it waited until Qi Ke came to her side and followed by her legs.
Qi Ke's hand on the crutch was a little shaky at this time, and he was very self-aware not to be strong, and bent down to touch something from the left pocket of the king to eat.
A small one, tightly wrapped in oil paper, opened to be a two-finger-thick nut stick, a small outdoor sports food that quickly replenishes energy, Qi Ke made his own, she really didn't dare to take people into the mountain without this thing, she was afraid that she would sit down with physical exhaustion first, and then lie and reveal the stuffing - such a waste of physical strength could not support her to go into the mountain to do gunpowder tests.
So the small nut stick is the secret of Qi Ke to protect himself from revealing his filling.
Qi Ke ate it himself, and didn't forget to take a few more and hand them to the people behind him to taste, if you think it's good, this will be another business in the future, and the army definitely needs this kind of small food.
Relying on the energy provided by the nut stick, Qi Ke finally arrived at her gunpowder test site safely, and entered the col from a sheep's intestine path, the small valley is surrounded by mountains on all sides, only this one passage in and out, safe and private when there is nothing to do, and it is really an excellent place to bury bones when there is something.
"When we arrive, I'll go to the shed and drop things down, you feel free."
The entrance to the valley is a normal mountain forest environment, and you have to go inside to see that it is indeed different.
Qi Ke basically divided this small valley into three parts, one part is the entrance, basically immovable, half of the area after crossing the middle line is divided into two, a small part is left for the shed to pile raw materials and assemble explosives packages, most of them are gunpowder test sites, and there are even grass targets on the ground that are blown up in a mess, and at a glance you know that this place is often used.
