Chapter 218: Out of the Customs
Overnight, heavy snow quietly covered most of the southern regions.
White Stone Creek walked out of the secret room, and it was snow-white outside. In the early morning, the cold wind blew, bringing snow powder from the pine trees in the yard.
He let out a long breath of hot air, and heard the faint crying of children in the distance, and the crowing of the big domestic dog, the rooster.
Several guards of the Sequoia Army were guarding the door, and their bodies were actually covered with a thin layer of snow powder, and they were still motionless.
"Thank you for your hard work." Bai Shixi was in a good mood and looked appreciatively at the guards guarding the guard.
"Do your duty for the commander, don't work hard!!" Several people suddenly replied loudly with excitement as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
Bai Shixi looked at the fanatical reverence in the eyes of several people, and he probably understood in his heart what kind of prestige he had in the Sequoia Army.
Now that the senior brother Xia Zhong has completely faded out of everyone's field of vision, he goes back and forth with his friends in the pharmacy Danfang and at home every day, concentrating on research and I don't know what I don't know.
Deputy Army Commander Wen Long was injured before, but now he is still recuperating, and there are only some newly promoted foreign affairs officers and chiefs of staff in the army.
"It seems that people's hearts are available" Now that the Kun Realm and the Dry Realm are balanced, Bai Shixi obviously feels that his mentality is becoming more and more unhurried, and there is a taste of controlling the overall situation.
The internal qi network of the Kun realm still has the ability to cross the qi. This kind of strange ability similar to the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Demon has no effect for the time being, and he plans to try to select dead soldiers in the army and cultivate them on a large scale once he finds benefits from Tang Shan. 35xs
"Where is Xuwen now?" White Rock Creek asked again. "And Shangqinglong, also called over."
"My subordinates will go and inform me." A soldier bowed down, turned and swept away.
White Rock Creek went out of the yard and walked along the side of the boat to the small garden on the upper level.
When he arrived at the entrance of the small garden, Xuwen also hurried over. When he saw White Rock Creek, he was also a little flustered.
Others are not familiar enough with Baishixi, so they can't see any major changes, but he is different. He has been in charge of all kinds of trivial matters in Baishixi, and with his strong memory, he will never forget some details and characteristics of the military commander's appearance.
So the first time he saw White Rock Creek, he hesitated.
"Commander, what are you?"
Bai Shixi smiled: "I have gained a little from martial arts, don't care." Also, this is not a wig. He reached out and pulled the hair from his head, and laughed.
Xuwen nodded solemnly, and looked at Bai Shixi's long hair curiously, since the commander said it was true, then it was really good.
"I don't know what the commander called his subordinates for?"
"Two things, the location of those treasure medicines that I asked you to find before, give me the map that has been determined. Flash," Bai Shixi said, holding up a finger.
"That's fine." Void nodded.
"The second thing, how many orphans did I ask you to collect before?" White Rock Creek is the color road.
"Well, there are already about a hundred, this world is difficult, there are many orphans, as long as you give food to eat, it is easy to gather a large number of them. We also carefully selected more than 100 people from among them. After all, there is not enough food, and raising too many people is also a burden on the army. Xuwen said in a low voice.
"Has the famine begun?" White Rock Creek's heart sank.
"Emboro City is okay, and in the rest of the nearby cities, the price of food has risen in many places, because no one dared to cultivate the rice fields before, resulting in many people now selling their sons and daughters, just to eat with fewer mouths" Xuwen was quite helpless. "Many members of our army have made porridge fields, which is useless and will only attract more hungry people.
If the army commander wants to carefully train dead soldiers, I am afraid that he will have to think twice, with the current situation in the army, the training of dead soldiers, the consumption of grain, oil, rice and noodles, all kinds of meat and vegetables, must not be missing. ”
"I know" Bai Shixi also had a headache, this famine problem, as the boss of the largest force in the Southern Regions, was also a problem that had to be considered. After all, so many people from the Sequoia Army have to eat.
"What about the main development of fisheries?" Bai Shixi thought about it and asked.
"The fishing industry is now about to reach the ban period, the weather is cold, and many fishing boats can't get out at all." The text replied. "During this time, the fishermen were also crazy, and they couldn't find much in the river."
Bai Shixi thought for a moment, and then asked: "At the pharmacy, you can sort out some medicinal herbs that grow quickly, and choose medicines with large tubers like yams, which can resist famine." ”
"Commander, don't you know, this kind of thing has long been gnawed up by the hungry people, and now it is the yellow mud and stones that no one eats." The void whispered back.
"Forget it, you bring me what I want, and besides, do something for me. I'm going to go out. Bai Shixi frowned helplessly.
Tianhe, full stop area.
As a checkpoint on the way to the Southern Regions, the full stop area has a tall city wall, a large population in the city, and tens of thousands of officers and soldiers are stationed here.
Watchtower forts were scattered all around, forming a larger network that blocked access to the southern regions.
Ye Yuchun sat on the caravan, like the most ordinary outsider, looking up at the tall blue-gray city wall in the crowd.
"Master, you have to pass through here, through another city gate on the opposite side, before you can go to the north road." The old grandson, who had the experience of going to the Southern Regions several times, whispered beside Ye Yuchun.
"How far do you think we go?" Ye Yuchun asked in a low voice. While queuing up to enter the city, he was also carefully observing the surrounding situation.
"Back to the master, you can get to Boluo City in about five days, Boluo is a big city close to our Tianhe after all, but recently I heard that there is a famine over there, and I am afraid that the garrison of this level will be stricter. Our caravan is not necessarily going to be easy. "The old grandson didn't know the identity of his master, but he was worried about himself.
"It's okay that I have paperwork that goes down and down, just us, it's okay to pass the test." Looking at the full stop area, Ye Yuchun also remembered the scene when he escaped from the Southern Regions in embarrassment.
At that time, as the commander of Miyu Space, his subordinates actually died in battle, and he was reduced to the point of being surrounded and suppressed.
As soon as he remembered the past, his eyes were deep, and his heart was churning with fire.
"I still have five days to go, I don't know how this trip has become."
The old grandson said with a smile: "The old man has returned to his hometown, and he must be rich and noble when he goes back, so that those guys who looked down on people at the beginning can see that you are doing well now, very good!" Isn't that what makes life interesting? "He can see through it.
Ye Yuchun's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.
"That's right, let those who have provoked me before know that I, Ye Yuchun, are back."
"Sir, do you still have an enemy in the Southern Regions?" Old Sun asked cautiously.
