Chapter 299: The Land of the Dead
Hua Zhuo and Mu Zhiqing were not reluctant to see this, they had already seen that the two of them had something unusual hidden in their hearts.
"Well, then you must not be polite when you need it." Mu Zhiqing helped her up, and the pain on the girl's face that couldn't be concealed also pierced her heart.
"Alright, let's get ready." Hua Zhuo looked at her sweetheart's distressed expression, and she was also distressed. Quickly hugged her and diverted the topic.
"Well," Qian Scarlet Moon also smiled slightly, swept away a little haze in her heart, and cheered up, "Next, I will prepare some things like long wooden sticks, wooden skateboards, and long ropes." If the Nine Shadows Swamp are all swamps, then these must be used. ”
"Good!"
While they were working hard to prepare, Qianmo and Mingqiu had already followed Qiao Xi to the north of the junction between Zhai Rong and Jixi.
"This is it." Josie pointed to a dry grassland in front of her, "Twenty miles inside, you will enter the land of death in Yanxi, which is second only to the Nine Shadows Swamp. Yunyi and I went in once during training, ten days! Twenty people, twelve people came out. ”
Speaking of this, Josie's face also rarely showed a sad look.
He untied the two burdens from his shoulders, "Five days' rations, I will wait for you here for seven days." After seven days, we didn't come out, so we set off for Jiuyou. ”
This time, Qianmo did not refuse, and Mingqiu took one and carried it on his shoulder: "Thank you!" ”
"Be careful!"
As soon as the words fell, Qianmo and Mingqiu turned around and ran in without looking back. What they hold is not the mind of coming out alive, but rushing wherever there is danger.
As soon as they crossed the range of twenty miles, the two of them felt a sense of murder coming to their faces. It was the gloom and gloom brought about by the resentment that surrounded it all year round.
"There are wolves!" Qian Mo crouched down and looked around, and when the familiar breath and footprints appeared in front of him, he seemed to return to the scene of his youth when he was shuttling in the forest.
Mingqiu looked at the momentum of the people around him suddenly changed, he was a cold teenager before, but at this moment he was like a dormant beast.
"This way!" Qian Mo habitually arched himself, lowered his height, and began to run quickly among the grass.
Seeing this, Mingqiu also followed his example and rushed forward. His spirit also slowly concentrated in the running, and even his breathing unconsciously adjusted to the rhythm of Qianmo.
After he had been running along for a while, he noticed that his perception seemed to rise a little, and he could hear unusual sounds coming from the grassland, and he could faintly smell the blood in the cold wind. He knows that this is a benefit of high tension. And he, all along, has been extremely lacking in such external oppression.
He was even more glad at this time that he came with Qianmo.
"A mile ahead, at least eight." Qian Mo bowed down, took off the burden on his back and hid it in the crack of the stone, and pulled out the dagger and held it across his chest.
Mingqiu also did a good job, and then pulled out the blood scorpion that had not been used for a long time from his sleeve, and the scorpion tail thorn move had already begun to turn in his mind.
"One, two, up!"
Qian Mo gave an order, and the two of them quickly rushed into the wolves that were eating in front of them.
"Whew-" A wolf howl sounded, and a bloody man-wolf battle began on the grassland.
When Qian Mo's dagger drank the first drop of wolf blood, a fierce ferocity spread among the two of them.
"Ahh
"Hmm-" There were too many wolves, and finally Qian Mo was torn off a piece of flesh because he couldn't dodge, but in exchange for his even more desperate counterattack.
Finally, half an hour later, the head wolf howled and released his intention to surrender.
Qian Mo took the lead in putting away the dagger, walked in front of the wolf, and let out a soft howl.
"Huh?" It was the first time for Mingqiu to see him talking to an animal, and he was surprised and deeply admired the boy who had saved him.
"Let's go!" Qian Mo walked back and picked up the baggage, and simply bandaged the wound, "Forty miles to the west, there is a brown bear, let's go!" ”
"Hmm!" Ming Qiu simply didn't put away the blood scorpion, he felt that the longer he held the blood scorpion, the more he seemed to be able to have a sense of connection with it.
Just when the two of them were fighting in the Land of Death, Qian Scarlet Yue, who was still in Zhai Rong City, had already prepared almost everything to go to the Nine Shadows Swamp.
"Qianmo, they should come out in three days, there are still three days, let's see what else to prepare." Mu Zhiqing, Hua Zhuo and Qian Scarlet Moon sat on the table, repeatedly discussing possible situations and countermeasures.
"Weapons!" Hua Zhuo tapped his fingers on the table, "We have prepared a lot of things to guard against, and we still lack weapons to attack. He turned his head to Scarlet Moon, a little girl who always had a lot of strange things in her head, and he was quite surprised.
Qian Scarlet Moon received the meaning of Hua Zhuo, and what he said should not be an ordinary sword weapon.
"Poison!" As soon as Qian Scarlet Yue's voice fell, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Uncle Kai?" Unexpectedly, the flowers standing outside were flowers that had not been seen for several days.
"Young Master, I know that you won't allow me to go, so the old slave has prepared something for you." Hua Kai took out a wooden box, which contained a lot of bottles and cans. "There are wound medicines, poisons, and each bottle is labeled, and Miss Qianyue must know how to use it."
Qian Feiyue modestly took the medicine box and glanced at the label on the medicine bottle, "Yes, Uncle Kai, you are really timely rain!" ”
"Hehehe, the old man is just doing what he can." He sighed, because he was the head of Huajia Medicine, Hua Zhuo would definitely not let him go.
"Thank you, Uncle Kai!" Hua Zhuo thanked him sincerely, and when she saw the burden on him, she knew that he was also leaving.
"Young Master, take care!" Hua Kai had worry in her eyes, but finally sighed and confessed.
"Uncle Kai," Hua Zhuo trotted one step after him, "Daddy, and Ah Lian, please Uncle Kai." ”
The figure of the flower bloomed for a moment, and there was a flash of water in the eyes. The figure on his back nodded heavily: "Hey! ”
Looking at the backs of the two, Qian Feiyue couldn't help but think of Mu Lin, she turned her head to look at Mu Zhiqing: "Sister, Mu Te is ...... over there"
Mu Zhiqing looked out the window with a faint sadness, "And the flowers burn...... After that, he had already sent someone to the capital. I think I'm about to get the news. ”
She wasn't worried that his father wouldn't agree to her and Hua Zhuo's affair, nor would he disagree with her going to the Nine Shadows Swamp. Because since childhood, she and his father have traveled all over the country, and they have also experienced a lot of dangerous things. According to the words of his father Mulin: "There is no true knowledge in a place that is not dangerous." ”
What she was worried about was that Hua Zhuo's special status would affect his father's consistent neutral stance in the imperial court. What she is most afraid of is that because of her, what his father has insisted on all his life will be shaken.
