Early the next morning, Fu Yuanyuan and Yinbao were greeted by a table of fragrant and delicious breakfast.

Xiao Lao Fan said early with a simple smile: "I saw that there were a lot of ingredients in the kitchen, so I made some breakfast and dry food." ”

Yinbao ran quickly to the dining table: "Congee side dishes, shepherd's cabbage buns, shredded potato pancakes, huh?" What is it? ”

"There was rose sauce in the kitchen, so I made some rose cakes."

Xiao Lao Fan scratched his head, "I've tasted it, the homemade pickles in this inn taste excellent, and they are just right to go with white porridge." ”

"Childe, the little one looks like Xiao Lao Fan is here, so we don't have to worry about being hungry all the way."

Yinbao smiled and served Fu Yuanyuan to sit down to eat.

A delicious breakfast starts the day in a good mood.

Yinbao ate quickly, and after dinner, he went out to inquire about the news, but returned in a quarter of an hour with the latest Di Bao.

"Childe," Yinbao handed the newspaper to Fu Yuanyuan, "There is news of His Highness in the latest newspaper. ”

When Fu Yuanyuan heard this, he hurriedly spread out the newspaper and took a closer look.

This newspaper was transmitted back to the capital from the southwest frontier, mainly reporting on the current war situation in the southwest frontier.

Including various matters after Qin Ze led people to the southwest frontier.

Among them, it is said that Qin Ze participated in the planning and command of a small battle to win the good news, the article praised Qin Ze's arrival from multiple angles for its great role in boosting the morale of the soldiers, and praised Qin Ze's super talent in combat command.

Seeing Fu Yuanyuan's round eyebrows, his heart tightened.

will not be subject to the foreign monarch's order.

Not to mention that Qin Ze is just the identity of the prince.

Di Bao sang the praises of Qin Ze's role so highly, which always made Fu Yuanyuan feel unsteady.

She put down the newspaper and squinted her eyes and thought for a moment: "Yinbao, Lao Fan, let's go." ”

The capital goes to the southwest frontier, and it takes seven days to get there.

Fu Yuanyuan and they went all the way, except for going into the town at night to find an inn to rest, and they didn't stop during the day.

By the afternoon of the eighth day, the three had arrived in the southwest.

"Ahead is the Yuanjiang Mountains," Fu Yuanyuan pointed to the mountains that stretched not far away, "The Yuanjiang Mountains start in the west, and the remaining veins slowly descend to the east, and we will be able to cross the mountains in less than half a day from this road." ”

Yinbao responded: "After the Yuanjiang Mountain Range, you will reach the southwest territory." ”

"That's right."

Fu Yuanyuan and Yinbao have traveled to Miao Aguo twice and are quite familiar with this area.

However, Xiao Lao Fan has never left the capital, and he listened to the two of them introduce the customs and customs of various places along the way, and listened to them with relish.

"The Yuanjiang mountain range isolates the southwest region and blocks the influence of the cold wave in the north, so the southwest region is like spring all year round, and every day is a good weather with clear skies."

"I've heard Master say," Xiao Lao Fan asked in a serious way, "There are many ethnic groups in the southwest?" ”

"Yes," Yinbao introduced, "as far as I know, the southwest region is led by three major ethnic groups, namely the Bai people, the Yishui people, and the Yue people, and there are more than ten other ethnic groups that depend on these three ethnic groups for their livelihoods." ”

While talking about their understanding of the southwestern border region, the three of them rode towards the Yuanjiang Mountain Range. Half a day later.

"Crossing the Yuanjiang Mountains," Fu Yuanyuan grabbed the reins of his horse and pointed to the road down the mountain, "In the middle of the undulating mountains and valleys, there are many large and small dams, and the rich natural and human resources of the southwest are contained in these dams." ”

The three of them looked into the distance.

Wherever Fu Yuanyuan pointed, you can see that the various dams are flat and the soil is fertile.

"The climate here is mild, irrigation is convenient, and it is a good place for people to recuperate."

Because of the isolation of tall mountain ranges, it naturally forms a barrier for the southwest area, and the people of the southwest are self-sufficient and live a relatively backward but comfortable life.

"Let's go down from here," Fu Yuanyuan continued, "and pass through the dam of the Yishui tribe before we reach Yunzhao City, an important town in the southwestern border. ”

The three of them led the horses down the mountain, and the winding mountain path gradually widened.

Walking to a corner, Yinbao suddenly shouted: "Childe, look, that's a muno fruit tree!" ”

Xiao Lao Fan's eyes followed the direction pointed by Yinbao, and when he saw it clearly, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "What kind of tree is this?" Why does the fruit grow densely on the trunk of the tree? ”

Yinbao went up with an arrow and picked a bunch of fruits, and gave them to Fu Yuanyuan and Xiao Lao Fan: "This is called Mu Mu Guo, it is a unique fruit tree in the southwest region, don't look at it looks strange, Mu Mu Guo is delicious." ”

"The sweet and sour taste is endless!"

Yinbao ate a fruit and grumped with satisfaction, "This fruit is not only delicious, but also has the effects of relieving cough and asthma, detoxifying and relieving itching." ”

"Childe, let's pick some of the smaller ones and eat them on the way."

Seeing that she was happy, Fu Yuanyuan waved his hand and said, "Go quickly." ”

Yinbao happily answered, gave the reins of the horse to Xiao Lao Fan, walked under the muno fruit tree, rolled up his sleeves, and climbed up.

Just as she had barely taken two steps to climb, a small green snake suddenly poked its head out of the dense mare and slammed into Silvertreasure's hand with a speed that was almost uncatchable.

"Be careful!"

Fu Yuanyuan's round pupils shrank suddenly, and almost instantly, he stretched out his fingers and flicked a strong wind past.

Unexpectedly, the little green snake was agile, and he shrank back to avoid Fu Yuanyuan's blow in the air.

Fu Yuanyuan touched his chin, and his eyes flashed with a different color.

Yinbao reacted, and instead of retreating, he jumped upwards to chase the little green snake.

"Silverbaby, come back." Fu Yuanyuan stopped, her gaze sweeping over the canopy of the mummy fruit tree.

The canopy of the muno fruit tree is very thick, and the layers are difficult to see.

With Fu Yuanyuan's instructions, Yinbao jumped off the ground lightly.

"Childe, that little green snake is weird."

"This is a human-bred snake, quite human."

Fu Yuanyuan walked to the side, picked up a green leaf, and put it to his mouth to play a strange and clear sound.

After a while, I saw that the little green snake suddenly came out of the muno fruit, climbed down the trunk of the tree, and crawled towards Fu Yuanyuan.

Fu Yuanyuan picked up another branch and let the little green snake climb up the branch.

I saw the little green snake curl up along the branches, and soon remained motionless as if asleep.

Xiao Lao Fan was surprised: "Childe, what kind of trick is this?" ”

"It's just an ordinary snake control song." Fu Yuanyuan glanced around, and put the branch into the sack on the horse's back, "Let's go." ”

The three of them walked down the mountain road, and after walking a few steps, they all stopped.

Not far away, there was the sound of footsteps.

Accompanied by the sound of eager footsteps, it is the local vernacular.

After a while, seven or eight strangely dressed men appeared in front of the three of them.

The men were quite surprised by the appearance of the three men, and after discussing a few words with each other, they let one of them come forward.
