The next day, although Zhou County's order did what he said and sold a batch of grain to Wen Bingyan as much as possible, as he said yesterday, there was not a lot of stock in this Qingyang City, and even if they got the money, they couldn't buy enough food.

I believe that this situation will not be well improved even if I go to other counties, and it is a drop in the bucket for the real demand.

This further made Wen Bingyan determined to go to the mysterious place that Miss Bai Yu said to make a final attempt.

I took a two-day break, and I didn't continue to stay because of the urgency. After they re-recruited a group of accompanying guards, they took some men and horses lent to them by Zhou Shize for safety reasons, and then reorganized the caravan and set off again, leaving Qingyang City with the intention of continuing to other areas.

Watching this caravan gradually disappear from sight from afar, Zhou Shize sighed softly, although he was very sympathetic to the suffering people, but it was a pity that he was really helpless now.

However, just after leaving the area of Qingyang City for some distance, the caravan, which had been traveling very smoothly, suddenly stopped, because the smell of ice smoke that was sitting in the carriage ordered the convoy to stop.

One of the guards in charge of seeing him off couldn't help but feel a little strange, and stepped forward to the carriage and asked in a loud voice, "Miss Wen, why did you stop suddenly?" There are barren mountains and mountains in the vicinity, and it is best for us to go to another county seat before sunset, otherwise it may be inconvenient. ”

The curtain of the carriage slowly lifted from the inside, revealing a side face that smelled the ice smoke.

"Let's reroute!" She said word by word, her face indifferent.

"Diversion?" The guards couldn't help but look stunned.

"Head northwest until the sun goes down!" She continued, turning her head to look at the mountains in the distance, her gaze solemn.

However, her order made most of the people here feel a little incomprehensible, and they all looked back at the direction of the carriage with wide eyes.

After all, this is already an extremely remote place, limited by the geographical environment and congenital conditions, even a somewhat chaotic and impoverished county like Qingyang City can already be regarded as relatively good. If you want to try your luck and buy more grain, I am afraid that there is only a slight possibility if you move in the direction of the hinterland where the land is more fertile and fertile.

And if you continue to walk in the northwest direction, it is already close to the border of the Holy Dynasty, not only is the land vast and sparsely populated, but both the weather and the geographical environment will only be worse, even Qingyang City is not as good!

In that kind of ghost place where birds don't, how can you buy more food!

Could it be that this Miss Wen has realized that she can't do anything, so she just gives up on herself and walks around?

Immediately, some more experienced people were going to come up and dissuade them, no matter what, it was better to bring this food back and at least save some people than to sit back and wait for death.

However, no matter how much they tried to dissuade them, it seemed that Wen Bingyan had already made up his mind and did not intend to change it easily.

In the end, she was the one in charge, and everyone saw that they couldn't change her mind, so they could only obey her orders, turn around, and continue to move in the northwest direction.

Wen Bingyan took a deep breath and sat down again, staring at the distant horizon with his eyes far away.

Naturally, she couldn't say that the real purpose of this trip was to deal with or even make deals with those ghosts, and if she did, I was afraid that everyone here might treat her as a monster.

It is precisely because this is the only opportunity at the moment that it is even more important to seize it tightly and not give any possibility of missing it!

As if she suddenly remembered something, she lowered her head and took out the jade plate that Bai Yu gave her at that time, held it in her palm and looked at it seriously, with a little confusion in her eyes.

Although she had already made a decision, she didn't know the exact location of the mystery at the moment, only that it should be in the northwest direction.

Fortunately, Miss Bai Yu had told them an important message at that time, that is, when approaching the entrance of that place, this jade plaque would automatically give them a certain hint to help them find the place.

But it's not known exactly how close it will be or what form the hint will take.

Originally, I wanted to find Miss Bai Yu to ask carefully about it, but since the previous goodbye, the other party has never appeared, and she asked other people but couldn't get an accurate answer, as if she didn't know the girl who was rescued together. Even Ye Hancheng Shaoxia had already left after the incident, leaving her with nowhere to go.

After waiting for two days in Qingyang City, in addition to preparing the caravan, in order to find out the news, but unfortunately, all she got was disappointing, so she did not continue to wait indefinitely, and planned to set off to find it herself.

Yubai's fingers slowly clenched the jade card, and she slowly breathed a sigh of relief, but her gaze became more determined.

"This time it may be even more painful, and it may even be life-threatening. But...... No matter how hard it is, we must seize this last ray of life......"

……

However, even if they had made up their minds, the caravan still didn't find anything after walking in the northwest direction for two days, not only the guards were a little tired physically and mentally, but even the smell of ice smoke couldn't help but have some self-doubt.

"Could it be...... Did I really guess wrong? ”

Inside the carriage, her expression was a little depressed, her eyes were in a trance, and she seemed to be a little haggard than she had described before.

Although no one knows exactly when they will find the location of that mysterious place.

"Miss......" The maid couldn't help but call softly.

Wen Bingyan raised his eyes and glanced at her, his expression was gloomy, and finally said, "If we still can't find that place tomorrow, let's go back." ”

At least she will receive a little food when she returns, and even if she goes from house to house to ask for it, she will have to scrape together enough food......

As the words fell, the carriage became quiet again, after all, it meant that the last glimmer of hope had failed.

However, at this moment, the jade plate, which had been like a dead thing without the slightest movement, suddenly trembled, and exuded a mysterious rhythm, although it could not be said explicitly, but it seemed to be guiding something!

Wen Bingyan was stunned for a moment, and then quickly picked up the jade plaque like crazy, and after confirming that this strange feeling was not an illusion that she was expecting too much, a look of surprise gradually appeared on her face that was almost desperate.
