Chapter 290: It's a worthwhile trip
Not daring to light a bonfire at the top of the mountain, fifty paces below the top of the hill there was a wood, and in the woods there was a wide clearing, where five fires were burned.
Everyone gathered around the fire to drink water and eat, and let a few people lead two dogs to patrol the neighborhood. Ye Li took a few soldiers who were good at climbing the mountain and went to the top of the mountain with hemp ropes.
Xia Li, Ye Feng, Dangdang, and Kuroko's fires were piled on the other side of the boulder. Xia Li was extremely tired, leaned on Ye Feng's shoulder, and sank into a dream.
Ye Feng took her into his arms and let her sleep more comfortably.
He hit her on the top of her head with his chin, and he was very upset. In order to exterminate the bandits as soon as possible, let her work so hard
More than half an hour later, Ye Li came over and whispered, "Uncle, it's okay." β
Ye Feng nodded, but he was reluctant to wake up Xia Li and let her rest again.
After more than an hour, Ye Feng gently shook Xia Li and said, "Wake up, it's done over there." β
Xia Li opened her eyes and saw Ye Feng, mountains and forests, bonfires, stars that were close enough to reach out and touch, and wolves howling in the distance. It took a moment to realize that this was Hump Ridge, and she had come to reconnoiter the enemy.
She stood up and jumped a few times, patting her face before she was completely conscious. They took Dangdang and Kuroko to the top of the mountain and came to the bottom of the East Hump.
Someone had already gone up to the top of the eastern hump and fastened a few ropes to it. This peak is steep and difficult to climb, Ye Feng and Xia LiγWhen climbing the mountain, tie the rope around your waist, just in caseγ Ye Li and the others and the sunspot were guarding at the foot of the peak, not only to obey the order, but also not to allow any other wild things to go up.
The summit is rocky and weedy, without any shelter, and the mountain is surprisingly windy. Even when they came up, they didn't take the rope off, just in case.
Before coming up, Xia Li had already added a thin jacket, and Ye Feng took off his shoulders and put it on for her.
The peak is not large, only about fifty square meters. Sitting here, it is like being in the vast and deep bright starry sky, the peaks and everything, everything is so small. Xia Li suddenly felt that he had gone through thousands of tribulations to achieve positive results and became one of the stars
After a long time, she muttered, "It's so beautiful, it's worth the trip."
Ye Feng was also shocked by this mysterious and spectacular night sky, and stared into the distance for a long time.
I don't know what I'm thinking, but it also has a solemn expression, looking at the stars without blinking.
Two soldiers sat on the other side with their backs turned to reduce their presence. They thought that Lord Ye brought Miss Xia here just to see the night view. It's so romantic, too!
Xia Li enjoyed the night view for a long time before he started to get down to business and looked in the direction of Evil Wolf Peak. Halfway up the mountain, there are cliffs that go straight up and down, and there are buildings in the middle. There are plank roads, chain bridges, and stone gates. The houses inside the door should be mostly natural caves, and there are lights shining through the cracks in the doors. There is a tower on the top of the mountain, and there are people patrolling on it, and the facial features are blurred and some places are blocked by fog, so it is not clear to see.
At this time, there were no binoculars, no cannons or crossbows that could shoot so high, the wide lake and the high and steep cliffs were natural barriers, and they were not afraid of flash floods and mudslides, it was indeed a good place, so the Cao family had a unique vision for several generations to build many important bases in the back mountains.
They would never have imagined that because of her, a clairvoyant who knew some knowledge of the afterlife, the Heavenly Burning Barrier not only could not become a barrier, but it was also displayed naked in front of her, and the improved cannon could still hit some places.
Xia Li looked back at the two soldiers, these words could not be heard by them.
Ye Feng understood what she meant, turned back to the two and said, "You go down and listen to the order." β
The two got up and went down the hill.
After they left, Xia said in a vain manner, "Do they think that the two of us are nervous and want to come here to do something?" β
Ye Feng said, "After I go back, I will organize them into my personal army." He rubbed her hair again and said with a smile, "Be serious, don't think too much, we're on an important mission." β
Xia Li began to point in the direction of Evil Wolf Peak and said what was there. She took out the prepared paper and pen and put it on a relatively flat stone, Ye Feng studied the ink, helped her block the wind, and she drew on the paper.
For such an important thing, I don't dare to write it with charcoal, for fear that I won't be able to see it clearly.
When she was done, she stood up again and leaned against a slightly higher stone to look down. The clouds were shrouded in mist, and most of the situation under the mountain could not be seen.
No, I had to wait until dawn and the clouds cleared.
Xia Li also had the heart to observe the surroundings of the peak, black and brown stones, a small amount of soil in the cracks of the stones, and some wild grasses that were not luxuriant. In the corner of the cliff, a large red flower emerges, the flower is larger than the mouth of the bowl, it is round, swaying with the wind, bright and dazzling. If you look closely, the flowers are not one, but more than a dozen small flowers crowded together. The florets have five petals, the petals are long and narrow, turned outward into a semicircle, and are large red. The cores of the flowers are like long pink needles, and such a strong mountain wind has not bent them.
Xia Li felt that it was the most beautiful flower she had ever seen in her previous life and this life, and said in amazement, "Ah, what kind of flower is that, so beautiful." β
Ye Feng saw it, but he didn't recognize it.
Xia Li walked over, and when he got closer, the fragrance of flowers was stronger. She didn't dare to get too far away, wanting to climb down and take a closer look. Ye Feng was afraid that she was in danger, so he grabbed her and sat down on the side with the stone and looked down. "This flower has two clusters, the other with crimson petals and red cores. The roots grow on the edge of the cliff, and if you like, let them dig them up during the day. β
Xia Li smiled, "Okay." β
Since she likes to serve the pot of "evening beauty", she also likes flowers, and she has planted a lot of famous products at home.
They and when the hump rests.
When the fog cleared during the day, the two went up the hump again.
Xia Li first looked at the situation on the mountain behind Evil Wolf Peak again, and made up for the places that he didn't see clearly yesterday. pointed to one place and said, "Min Sanniang's information is quite accurate, I saw someone there come out with a weapon."
Looking further down, the large and small peaks block some places, but the environment of Wolf Lake and both sides can still be seen roughly.
The Wolf Lake under the rising sun, rippling blue waves, bubbling in the sun, like countless green eyes, glaring at the sky.
Xia Li took out the map of Wolf Lake and its surroundings before, pointed out what was wrong and where it was different, and Ye Feng revised and modified it on it.
Xia Li pointed to another place and said, "If there is a secret passage in the back mountain, the exit is most likely to be near this area, which is convenient for escape and hiding."
Ye Feng frowned and nodded, pointed to one place and said, "Then, there should be soldiers and dogs guarding here and here, driving the fleeing people here, and catching turtles in an urn." β
Xia Li said again, "Brother Ye, I'll also attack the Evil Wolf Peak, I'll stay here, as long as someone comes out from there, I will shoot it to death with one arrow." β
