Chapter 416: Who's the Burden

It will take three days to get from the capital to the Valley of the Yama King, if you move at a constant speed.

In the past three days, the new monarch candidates have been very smooth all the way.

However, no one felt at ease.

Think about it, since it is an opportunity after entering the valley, then why make trouble outside and make it so unsightly.

On the evening of the third day, we finally arrived at the destination of the trip, the Valley of the Hades.

The terrain of Hades Valley is very peculiar, surrounded by cliffs, and there is only one entrance, where there is already a Royal Forest Army.

Although it was almost dark, the head of the sect still asked the candidates to prepare and enter the valley.

There is no limit to the number of people who can come, but only nine people are allowed to enter the valley, including the candidates themselves, and the others are camped outside the valley.

Because the candidates are all noble royal families, except for Xue Wenyu and them, the other seven candidates not only brought the serving servants, but also the cooks when they came.

On the three-day journey, the seven candidates were called a pleasure, served in daily life, and had a cook cook for their meals.

At that time, Brother Hui Xue Wenyu and the others looked a little shabby, they were all dry food, sauce and meat bought on the way.

is about to enter the valley, and the seven little servants who brought personal service, although they came with kung fu, but after careful consideration, they still did not bring them into the valley. But there are no more cooks who can do kung fu.

Only nine people can enter the valley, and for the sake of safety, of course, you must bring as strong martial arts as possible, so, cook, of course, you can't bring it.

Of course, the diet without a cook will be much worse, but it is important to save your life at this time!

As long as you bring enough food to eat, you can fill your stomach.

On Brother Hui's side, Xue Wenyu, Shang Xiaohu, Lin Chuan and five others, while Luo Yi stayed outside the valley to sit in the town, and it was also very important to stay outside the valley, so he had to stay in a safe place. Luo Yi is more suitable than Shang Xiaohu.

After a short rest, they went into the valley.

Before leaving Beijing, there was a rule that only nine people could be carried, but it was allowed to bring the necessities of a carriage.

When entering the valley mouth, the Imperial Guards carefully inspected the carriages, which were allowed to carry blades, and the purpose of the inspection was only to prevent people from being brought in.

When it was Xue Wenyu's turn to inspect their carriage, the Imperial Forest Army who was checking lifted the oilcloth and took a look, and couldn't help but be stunned.

On the carriage of King Jiejun, in addition to having tents and pots like others, there are several jars, jars, and a jar!

The envoy who was supervising on the side hurriedly dragged the royal forest army in a daze.

The man came back to his senses, and very cautiously lifted the lid of the jar, only to see that the inside was wrapped in lotus leaves, and he didn't know what was inside, anyway, the royal forest army, who had a good nose, smelled the fragrance of food.

After the inspection, I watched the carriage go away, and the Guards who checked it still followed.

I wondered if it was because of the young age of this little county king, so he was afraid of starving him, so most of the things in the carriage were eaten?

If it weren't for his duty and he couldn't leave, and the sect envoy was on the side, he really wanted to go over and take a look, what was delicious in that bag, why was it so fragrant?

Of course, Xue Wenyu also noticed the look in the eyes of the Imperial Forest Army who was inspecting the carriage.

Xue Wenyu was also a little puzzled, what was loaded in this carriage?

When he was about to buy, Lin Chuan said that the old man Tao was Zhang Luo, and Xue Wenyu thought that the old man was reliable, so he didn't think much about it.

"Father, it would be nice if I could bring a woman, Mother is talking about picking mushrooms and hazelnuts." Brother Hui looked at the dense mountains and forests not far away, turned his head and said to Xue Wenyu.

"Well, I'll have to see if there's anything on the mountain, and if so, pick some back." Xue Wenyu looked at the forest and responded.

"I heard that there are tigers here, so I hunted one and skinned the tiger to make a chair cushion for my sister-in-law, and she was very happy." Shang Xiaohu also said.

Lin Chuan and several people on the side were laughing when they heard this, and when they looked at the others entering the valley one by one, whether they were the master or the entourage, they all had grim faces.

Look at these few of them, they are talking about the ladies who stayed in the capital.

"Yes, yes, my mother said that tiger bones are a medicine, and we will also take tiger bones with us when the time comes." Brother Hui hurriedly added.

As he spoke, he saw an open space in front of him, and some people had already begun to set up tents while it was still dark.

This time, I talked about the content in advance, so everyone is quite well prepared.

The tents are either cowhide or cloth tents coated with tung oil, which can protect them from rain and wind.

The people on Xue Wenyu's side are half of his own and half of Shang Xiaohu's people, and they have all traveled long distances and fought on either side.

It seems that they are more well-trained than the other seven teams, those who build tents, those who collect dry firewood, and those who move stones to build stoves, they are busy and not chaotic just by looking at them, and they don't need Xue Wenyu and Shang Xiaohu to speak at all.

Unlike other teams, Xue Wenyu has a big tent in the middle, and there are three simple small tents on three sides that can only accommodate one person.

It was already completely dark, lanterns were hung in the tents, and torches were planted outside the tents.

There are six bunks in the tent, a simple table in the middle, and wine jugs, bowls and chopsticks have been placed.

Xue Wenyu sat at the table, playing with the empty wine cup and feeling a little regretful that he couldn't eat the food she made herself.

Although they entered the valley, everyone's tents were built on a flat area that did not reach the edge of the forest.

They tacitly left a distance of more than 100 meters from each other, and some people were looking at this side and muttering; "You're still building a stove, could it be that you brought a cook in?"

The seven teams of people here are all lighting fires and boiling water and making tea for the master, that is, they are watching King Jiejun build a stove and build a pot.

They were busy roasting dry food here, and when they were cutting the sauce meat, they looked at the two cauldrons on King Jiejun's side and didn't know what was steamed, and those who were downwind could smell a fragrance from the wind, as if it was meat.

"What are you going to do?" Seeing that Brother Hui was about to go out again, Xue Wenyu called out to him.

How can you still be like in your own home when you are outside?

"I'll go talk to them, or they won't know how to get it." Brother Hui pointed to the dishes and chopsticks on the table and said.

"Pay attention to the occasion in the future." Xue Wenyu understood and reminded.

Brother Hui walked out, went to the carriage and took out a bag of things and entered the tent with the list.

Just when Xue Wenyu was still regretting that he couldn't eat the food made by his daughter-in-law, he smelled a familiar fragrance, and saw Lin Chuan carrying a large porcelain basin with a cotton cloth. As soon as he put it in the middle of the table, the one in the back came in with a large pot of hot steamed buns, and the subordinates in the back came in empty-handed.

Steamed bun Xue Wenyu knew that he bought it when he passed through a small town this afternoon.

"Let's eat." Lin Chuan shouted like a shopkeeper and lifted the lid of the large porcelain basin.

Xue Wenyu's eyes immediately widened, isn't this? Actually......
