Chapter 101: Trekking through mountains and rivers to finally find it

It's getting darker and darker. Han Xiluo and Lan Ling'er, who were still making a detour in the mountains, had to find a relatively safe and clean place. Otherwise, I will really have to sleep in the wild tonight.

Fortunately, the emperor has paid off. When they were walking for almost half an hour. A dilapidated log cabin appeared not far away. It is estimated that the forest keepers lived before.

"That's where I'll stay tonight." Han Xiluo pointed to the cabin not far away.

"That seems to be the only way to go. It's better than not having a place to shelter from the elements." Lan Ling'er said helplessly. She didn't want to spend the night just like that.

So the two of them quickened their pace. After a while, we arrived in front of the wooden house. Gently push open the dilapidated door. Crunch. In this dimly lit wilderness, it seems a little infiltrating. The two of them just walked into the door. A pungent musty smell came to my face. This made Han Xiluo frown. Lan Ling'er on the side was obviously choked by the dust that flew up when she opened the door. I couldn't stop coughing.

"Holy. Can this place be inhabited?"

"That's better than staying outside." Han Xiluo automatically ignored her complaints. Pick up a branch on the ground next to it. Pull away the cobwebs in front of you.

Lan Ling'er behind her took out a fire fold from her bag and lit it. The faint light brightened up the otherwise dimly lit room a little. I saw that the house was full of dust. There are also several plates with dishes on the table. However, the vegetables inside have long been moldy and rotten. It emits a pungent smell.

"Looks like this forest guard has encountered some kind of emergency." Han Xiluo looked at the dishes and chopsticks on the table and said.

"There was no sign of a fight in the house. The items are neatly arranged. It looks like I've been led out of the house by something or someone." Lan Ling'er then said.

"What the hell? Clean up a clean area tonight. Will nest for one night. We'll leave early tomorrow morning." Han Xiluo plucked all the cobwebs in the house with branches. I started looking around again for tools that I could clean.

Lan Ling'er lit the remaining half of the dusty candle on the table. The room was brighter again.

"Luckily, I was prepared." Han Xiluo took out a piece of cloth from his bag. Pour some water. Wiped the only bed in the house made of bricks and planks. Then Lan Ling'er took out a clean white cloth from her bag. Spread out on the board. No way. Women always think more carefully when they go out. I also bring more things than men. Not to mention two women who have lived in modern times.

"Alright." Lan Ling'er clapped her hands. For tonight's accommodation. I'm still quite satisfied. Of course, it's compared to sleeping in the wild. That's pretty good now.

"Yellow." Han Xiluo shouted Xiao Huang, who had been squatting outside the door. It has to be said. This little yellow is really not ordinarily smart. It feels like a spiritual dog. So Han Xiluo and Lan Ling'er especially like it.

Hear the call of the new owner. The little yellow fart came in wagging his tail.

"Good." Lan Ling'er patted its head. Then he took out the dry food he had brought with him from his bag. Divided more than half to Xiao Huang. Xiao Huang walked around her several times excitedly. I guess I want to be friendly. Then he picked up the loaf of bread on the ground. Walk towards the door.

"Hey, do you think this little yellow is the reincarnation of the Howling Sky Dog? How can you be so smart?" Lan Ling'er was eating. while looking out.

"I think you've read too many myths." Han Xiluo gave her a blank look.

"Oh, don't say it. Maybe I'll be right. Look at your bizarre background. The mysterious existence of the Wicans. Fate that cannot be changed. Isn't this a good confirmation that there is indeed a different dimensional world in this world that cannot be touched by humans?" Lan Ling'er said seriously.

"Or you'll call Yellow in. Showdown with it. Then ask if it was sent down by God to help us." Han Xiluo is full of black lines. Also whistling dogs. I'm still the Monkey King.

"Call it. If it's true. Don't be scared." Lan Ling'er smiled mysteriously. Then he shouted to Xiao Huang outside the door: "Xiao Huang. You come in and have a look. I'm looking for you."

Xiao Huang has just finished eating flatbread. Hear the owner calling. Thought it was going to give it something to eat again. So a gallop came to Lan Ling'er. Spit out a long tongue. A flattering look.

"Do you want to eat?" Lan Ling'er shook the big cake in her hand. Xiao Huang sighed vigorously. It's like saying I want to eat. Want to eat.

"This IQ makes people anxious." Han Xiluo said disdainfully.

Lan Ling'er ignored her. Continue to say to Xiao Huang: "It's okay for you to eat. But you're going to tell me. Are you a greyhound?"

Huang didn't even listen to what she was going to do. Just focused on her hands.

"Can't speak. That's it. Usually the god dog will always have some spells or something. Why don't you show us?" Lan Ling'er smiled evilly.

Xiao Huang is still only interested in the big cake in her hand.

"Alright. Don't be stupid. Hurry up and go to bed." Han Xiluo really couldn't stand it. So he got up, walked to the bedside, and lay down in his clothes.

Lan Ling'er doesn't give up. Continue to tease Xiao Huang. Maybe after that, Xiao Huang also discovered her intentions. So he whined a few times to express his dissatisfaction. Then he turned around and walked out. No matter how Lan Ling'er called, she didn't care about her anymore.

"And said it's not a god dog. Isn't it true that the divine dog has such a human side?" Lan Ling'er always firmly believed that this little yellow was the reincarnation of the Roaring Sky Dog.

Seeing a man and a dog, he didn't mean to pay attention to her. Lan Ling'er could only shrug helplessly. Throw the bread in your hand to the door. Then I gently climbed onto the bed. Because there is a little yellow watchman. The two people in the house are still relatively at ease. Just to be on the safe side, though. Before going to bed. Lan Ling'er still set up an enchantment around the house. And told Xiao Huang not to leave the door three feet away. Only then did I sleep peacefully.

The silence of the night was broken by a sudden barking of dogs. Han Xiluo and Lan Ling'er jumped up from the bed at the same time. Look around warily. After discovering that there was no movement. Lan Ling'er complained and said, "I said the Roaring Sky Dog. You don't have to bark in the middle of the night."

Huang didn't bother with it. Still barking at somewhere in the woods ahead. Limbs keep walking on the ground. It seems to be in a hurry.

Han Xiluo and Lan Ling'er felt that something was wrong. So I tiptoed to the door. It's still pitch black outside. Look in the direction of Xiao Huang's call. They didn't find anything. The two of them slowly mobilized the spiritual power in their bodies. That's when I found out. There seemed to be a figure hiding in the bushes. I'm looking this way. Look at Xiao Huang with an anxious look again. They could guess who it was on their toes.

The two looked at each other. Then he sighed helplessly. Lan Ling'er removed the enchantment that was placed around her. When Xiao Huang felt that the danger in front of him was gone. Then he rushed towards the figure with an arrow.

"Ouch." Due to the impact of Xiao Huang is too strong. The center of gravity of the small pillar is unstable. Stumbled to the ground.

"Come on." Han Xiluo shouted towards the small pillar.

The little pillar slowly came out of the pile of grass. Keep your head down. With a look of doing something wrong, he walked in front of Han Xiluo and Lan Ling'er.

"Didn't I let you come? Why did you sneak with you again? A man wandering in the middle of the night in the wilderness. If you run into a wolf or a tiger, I'll see what you'll do." Lan Ling'er looked at him angrily.

"I. I really want to go with you. But you won't take me with you. So I'll have to wait until you're almost as far away as you can sneak along." The little pillar said resignedly.

"Alas. I knew you stinky boy had such a stubborn temper. I shouldn't have left you alone." Han Xiluo looked at him with some fear. Thankfully, nothing happened to him. Otherwise, she won't be able to feel at ease in this life.

"Let's go first." Lan Ling'er walked into the house with the little pillar. While patting the weeds off his body. While saying, "You're too bold. A man dares to walk around in this wilderness. Look at the dirty."

The little pillar just smiled stupidly.

"Hungry." Han Xiluo walked up to his side and asked.

"I brought all the dry food with me. Ate a little while on the way. So don't be hungry." The small pillar takes off the burden that is carried on the shoulder. Take out some of the dry food they had left him with.

"It's good to have eaten it. It's so late now. After chasing us all day and tired. Let's go to bed first. I'll talk about it tomorrow." Han Xiluo waved his hand. Signal everyone to rest first. So they climbed into bed again. Then. Lan Ling'er took advantage of the small pillar to fall asleep. Once again, an enchantment was laid. Only then did I sleep peacefully.

Day 2. From the original two people and one dog, it has become the current three people and one dog on the road together. Han Xiluo and Lan Ling'er didn't dare to leave him alone again. Because they know. Even send him back again. He'll still sneak along. Rather than let him follow out of sight. It's better to take him with you to safety.

The three of them walked on the rugged mountain road for nearly three more days. Finally. Xiao Huang, who was leading the way in front, stopped.

"It's here." Han Xiluo asked in a low voice.

"You ask me how do I know." Lan Ling'er gave her a blank look. Then he turned his head to look at the small pillar. The little pillar understands it. He muttered a few times in Xiao Huang's ear. I saw Xiao Huang stick out his tongue and lick his palm. Xiao Zhu nodded at the two of them.

Han Xiluo motioned for Xiao Zhu to stay where he was with Xiao Huang and not move. Then he went separately with Lan Ling'er to check the surrounding terrain.

The terrain here is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Mountains on all sides. Two of the mountains are tightly together. Form a radian shape. It also seals the way forward. And only one place appears a gap like a knife and an axe. Enter it. The bandits had set up their base camp in the deepest part of the arc. If you want to go straight to the Yellow Dragon. Then it is necessary to enter through the gap out. Walk ten kilometers ahead. to arrive. But Han Xiluo found out. On the high mountains on both sides. All are guarded. And it seems to be ready to block at any time. Want to conquer here. I'm afraid it won't work.

Han Xiluo and Lan Ling'er took advantage of the situation and retreated to the same place.

"If it's just the two of us. Wanting to blend in shouldn't be a problem. But." Lan Ling'er frowned and looked at Xiao Zhu and Xiao Huang.

Han Xiluo naturally understood what Ling'er meant. So he turned to the little pillar and said, "Little pillar. You and Huang find a safe place to hide first. After Sister Lan and I managed to get in. I'll find a way to bring you in."

Xiaozhu nodded. He knew the situation was dire. I can't let him come nonsense.

Han Xiluo patted him on the shoulder. The little pillar whispered a word of caution. We are waiting for you in the cave where we rested last night. He and Xiao Huang retreated back the way they had come before.

Until he and Xiao Huang's figures completely disappeared from their sight. Han Xiluo and Lan Ling'er turned around. The two looked at each other and smiled. Quietly waiting for the night to fall.

"Your Majesty."

Inside the Imperial Study of the Northern Palace. The lights are bright at this time.

"Your Majesty. According to the spy report. Recently, there has been no further action by this gang of mountain bandits. They all stayed in the stockade of Longhu Mountain. So it's a great opportunity to catch it all." A middle-aged man dressed as a general said in a loud voice.

"The terrain of Longhu Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you send an army to exterminate it. There will be an ambush of the enemy." Bei Minghao said in a deep voice.

"But this gang of mountain bandits will not be eliminated. There will never be peace on our borders." The middle-aged man was obviously in a hurry.

"I didn't say no. Just deal with this group of people. You can only outwit it." Bei Minghao said lightly.

"Then the emperor has an idea."

"I have my own decision. General Hu doesn't need to worry." A hint of shrewdness flashed in Bei Minghao's eyes. That's right. He's already thinking of a solution to this group of bandits.

"Now that the emperor has thought of a way. Wechen hopes that the emperor can resolve the matter as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will only increase the casualties of innocent people."

"Listening to the general's tone, are you blaming me for protecting the people?" Bei Minghao's voice suddenly became extremely cold.

"Wechen don't dare." General Hu was shocked by the chill emanating from Bei Minghao's body.

"It's good if you don't dare. If it's okay. The general will step aside." Bei Minghao said coldly.

"Wechen retired." General Hu didn't dare to stay longer. Turned around and walked out of the imperial study.

"Senior brother has really thought of a way." Murong Qingyi walked out of the side hall.

"Capture the thief and capture the king first." Bei Minghao said these five words lightly.

The whole temple fell silent again. No one knows what Bei Minghao is thinking at this time. Maybe it's a matter of banditry. Maybe thinking about her.
