Chapter 45
Although the status of the king is precious, but there is no real job, even if he will bring his own soldiers to help, I am afraid that it is not the opponent of the Royal Forest Army, Qi Shan thought for a while and said: "If this is not the case, if the king is willing to help, we will set fire to the mountain, the king of the mantis sent troops into the forest in the name of fighting the fire, we changed the clothes of the king of the mantis on time, and took advantage of the chaos to get out." ”
The evil general's eyes lit up, "This is a very good plan...... However, after the fire is extinguished, we can't find our body, the Queen Mother will send troops to search, there is a way is the most dangerous place, is the safest place, we wait for the Queen Mother to search the King of the King Jingwei camp, and then go to the King. ”
If they are not found in the mountains, the idle people who enter the mountains will be suspected by the Queen Mother, and they will hide in a safe place first, and then go to take refuge after the Queen Mother searches for the King, presumably they can be confused for a while.
Qi Shan nodded in agreement and fled outside, they are also fugitives, but I am afraid that with the current situation, they will not be able to find anyone to take in at all, and they will be chased by the pursuers at that time, then they will be too passive.
Mu Bingyue thought that they would wait a long time to wait for the letter, but she didn't expect that she would come back in less than half an hour at night, and the king of the mantis did have the courage, and without even the slightest hesitation, he decided to help them, and also proposed a plan to burn the mountain with fire, which coincided with Qi Shan.
There is no doubt about employing people, Mu Bingyue and Qi Shan are preparing to set fire to the matter.
Although it is winter, the dense forest is huge, and it is still easy to find a few dead trees, as long as you judge the direction of the wind and choose a good hiding place, everything will fall into place.
In the dense forest, a thick smoke suddenly rose, although it was winter, but the forest density here is large, and there are many dried shrubs, once the fire grows, the consequences are unimaginable, the royal forest army that came to encircle and suppress the fugitives, although they knew that this might be Mu Bingyue and his group of suspicious formations, and wanted to escape from the chaos, but they also had to draw troops to extinguish the fire.
Another corner began to fill with thick smoke, the leader of the Royal Forest Army couldn't help but have a headache when he saw it, the soldiers sent by the Queen Mother to search the mountain had been sent by him to fight the fire, and now only the periphery of the forest still had troops, but once he transferred troops, Mu Bingyue and his party did not immediately flee without a trace.
In order to prevent the dog from jumping off the wall in a hurry, he didn't dare to press too hard, he didn't think that these traitors were so bold and reckless, and they dared to be so presumptuous in this imperial tomb, if the situation was allowed to develop like this, even if he captured the fugitive, he was afraid that he would still be unable to escape being questioned by the queen mother.
Just when the leader of the Imperial Forest Army was at a loss, he found a place where thick smoke was billowing, he cursed secretly, the green tendons on his head were beating, and when his heart was crazy, a small soldier suddenly came to report, "My lord, the king of the mantis took thousands of elite soldiers to ask for instructions on the periphery to put out the fire." ”
"The King?" Lin Nan, the leader of the Royal Forest Army, looked puzzled.
Seeing this, Xiao Bing hurriedly replied: "King Yan has been guarding the imperial tomb here for more than ten years, I think I am afraid that the fire will spread and endanger the imperial tomb." ”
Lin Nan pondered for a moment, "Let them in." "King Chan has never participated in court politics, and he has never formed a party for personal gain, so he really came to fight fires.
"Yes." The creep took the order and left.
Although the fire did not start much and was discovered in time, the mountain road was steep and it was difficult to get water, so the royal forest army still tossed until dark to completely extinguish the mountain fire.
Lin Nan looked helplessly at the exhausted soldiers who were tossed, and did not speak for a long time, it seemed that he was worthy of being the most famous general in their Xuanyuan, plus the headache Mu Bingyue, it was really enough for them to drink a pot.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, the difficulty of searching was increasing, but the soldiers were already sleepy and lacking, how could they still have the energy to search the mountains, and Lin Nan's head was like a big fight for a while.
......
"Who?" On the periphery of the dense forest, a group of Imperial Forest troops surrounded outside were awe-inspiring.
I saw that in the dark woods, there were thousands of figures swaying with the torches, and it was not until they got close that the team of small soldiers saw the leader clearly, "It turned out to be the Lord of the Dragon." ”
The king snorted, "The soldiers have worked hard, and later this king will send someone to bring water and wine to treat everyone." ”
"The young generals thanked the soldiers for their success." After speaking, the leading soldier waved his hand to let his subordinates put away their weapons and dodge the way.
King Chan and his entourage left in a majestic manner, and after walking a distance, a team of more than a dozen people quietly left the home team out of sight.
When he returned to the camp of the King, he left only his personal guards and ordered the remaining soldiers to go back and rest.
The Imperial Forest Army, who was so tired that people turned over on their backs, when they received the food and wine sent by the King of the Mantis, Lin Nan suddenly jumped up from the ground, "That's not right. ”
The soldiers who were discussing the search with Lin Nan were startled by him, and they heard Lin Nan continue: "I'm afraid that we will fall into the scheme, so we will attack the west and secretly Chen Cang." ”
The soldiers didn't know why, Lin Nan had already begun to call everyone up, "Get up, one team led by Wang Tong will continue to search the mountain, and the other team will follow me." ”
Mu Bingyue kept breathing into her palm, her feet were almost frozen and unconscious, she couldn't wait to stomp a few feet on the ground, if it weren't for Ye Ling's continuous transmission of true qi into her body, I was afraid that she would have frozen.
Obviously put the bait, but no one bites the hook for a long time, Jia is a little impatient, "Don't that Lin Nan is an elm head, right?" Or maybe he was so tired that he fell asleep and didn't think about anything, then wouldn't we have spent the night in this bush in vain. ”
"Won't it?" Sheng Wenyan was a little incredulous, although he could use his luck to keep out the cold, but he couldn't stand the east wind in the night when the water turned into ice!
A sharp and piercing wind whistled through, and everyone felt a chill to the bone.
"Fortunately, he went to hide elsewhere and was not here, otherwise his silver hair, coupled with this dark night and the sound of the obedient wind, would only make people think that he had seen a ghost." Sheng Yin rubbed his arms strangely.
Mu Bingyue was so cold that her teeth froze, although she left most of her clothes inside, and covered with the clothes and armor of the Royal Forest Army outside, the cold wind still cut her internal organs like a knife.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Sheng heard the sound of Mu Bingyue's teeth fighting, and sneered, "Then if Lin Nan really doesn't take the bait, and freezes to death, we will become the biggest joke in the world." ”
Avoiding the shadow of the sword and sword, but freezing to death in aggrieved circumstances to save the person against all odds, isn't it the biggest joke in the world?
The evil general looked at Mu Bingyue, who was wrapped like a zongzi, but was still shivering from the cold, "Miss Mu can stand it." ”
"At most, it's going to be an hour." Considering the seriousness of the matter, Mu Bingyue decided to tell the truth.
The evil general sighed secretly, knowing that it was also embarrassing for her, "Although there are dense forests everywhere and there are many covers, the Queen Mother must have already issued a forbidden city order, even if we can escape from here, we can't go far, not to mention that this is the root of the imperial city, there are guards everywhere, because of their duties, they are all hidden in the shadows, unknown, if we accidentally expose the traces, it will be more than worth the loss." ”
Qi Shan also knew this truth very well, so he took the risk of proposing to take refuge in the King of the Mantis, with their appearance, they couldn't hide in the ordinary people at all, some people couldn't show their heads, and no one knew where there were guards stationed, it was really difficult.
"Protectors?" Mu Bingyue's eyes lit up, the guards were generally guarded by the emperor himself, guarding the periphery of the imperial city, in case there was a change in the palace and timely support.
Knowing what Mu Bingyue was thinking, the evil general said: "The queen mother has the edict of the emperor, even the emperor cannot disobey it, the queen mother is famous, and the emperor is forbidden in the Taimiao, I am afraid that we will not be able to transfer the army at all." ”
"Someone's coming." Ye Ling said in a low voice.
Everyone listened intently, and sure enough, they heard a group of people walking towards this side, and they couldn't help but stop talking.
The moonlight was faint, and a team of fire dragons hurried towards the camp of the King of Evils.
"Lord Lin, wait a minute, wait for the lowly prince."
"Get out of the way." Lin Nan waved his hand, didn't wait for the guards to report, and directly gave an order for his subordinates to break through.
Where did the little soldier dare to let it, the two sides confronted each other, and no one let anyone, and in a commotion, he heard the king of the mantis shouting majestically: "Stand down." ”
The minions, though reluctant, immediately retreated.
Looking at the king who was not wearing the prince's official uniform and hurriedly came out with a big coat, Lin Nan squinted, "It's really helpless to disturb the prince's good dreams, and I ask the prince to forgive me." ”
"I wonder why Lord Lin is here?" The king of the mantis went straight to the point.
"Today, the prince went to the woods to put out the fire, and I am afraid that there will be fugitives who will infiltrate the prince's Jingwei, and return to the hiding camp together."
"Oh?" King Chen's expression changed, but he didn't continue to speak.
Lin Nan had no choice but to step forward, "Lord Wang, the stakes are very high, if you wait for the Empress Dowager's decree, I am afraid that the fugitive has already fled, and the matter is urgent. ”
When the king heard this, he raised his eyebrows, "In this way, Lord Lin has decided that the fugitive is here with this king?" ”
"Search and you'll find out." Lin Nan knew that he would offend this prince left and right, so he was not ambiguous.
"Humph!" King Yan sneered, "Although this king has guarded the imperial tomb for more than ten years, it is not easy for people to trample on, if Lord Lin accuses this king of hiding a fugitive, then report it to the Zongren Mansion, and the Zongren Mansion will try it." ”
Lin Nan's face turned cold, but he also knew that if King Yan had a tough attitude, he would not be able to be stronger than him at the moment, so he had to soften his attitude, "The prince misunderstood, he was just in a hurry, the wording was inappropriate, and he didn't express it clearly." ”
Seeing that King Chen's face turned, Lin Nan then lowered his attitude and said: "I was ordered by the Queen Mother to capture the culprit, but I couldn't find it, and I was busy putting out the fire everywhere, I was upset and irritable for a while, and I asked the prince to forgive me." ”
"Hmm." The king responded lightly, but his attitude was still unclear.
Lin Nan scolded secretly in his heart, but he didn't dare to show a trace of dissatisfaction on his face, "Please also ask the prince to make it convenient, and Lin Nan will come to the door to thank you in the future." ”
Seeing that King Qi's face seemed to be a little soft, Lin Nan made persistent efforts and said: "General Qi Shan who defected this time, if I didn't find the traitor in the dense forest tomorrow, and I didn't search the prince's Jingwei camp today, with the friendship between the prince and General Qi Shan, it is inevitable that he will not get sick in the future." ”
"I know that the prince disdains these gossips, but he has to think about the prince's family and subordinates, if the prince interferes in every way today, it is inevitable that the queen mother will not think too much."
