This canyon is steep, and it is impossible to find a way from it. Unless you can grow a pair of wings and fly out like a bird.

So the two of them went downstream along the river. The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the beautiful scenery is innumerable, and it is indeed a good place to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests and live in the old age.

However, both of them were preoccupied at this time, and naturally they were not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way.

The topography of this canyon is a miracle of heaven, and people inside can't get out, and people outside can't get in. It's just that this canyon is too deep, the cliff is too high, and the area is ridiculously large.

The two men walked for two days and two nights, but they did not get out of the canyon.

Finally, on the night of the third day, they saw the light of the fire, which was not bright enough and far away, but it gave them hope.

"We'll be able to get out soon." Chu Shuyao said excitedly and looked at Meng Yichen.

Meng Yichen was also excited.

But then, the smiles on their faces faded at the same time. Because going out, it may represent parting.

Soon, though, they were smiling again, and no matter what lay ahead, they were going to take that path. This is what they have chosen, and it is what they have to experience.

"Let's go!" Meng Yichen said with relief.

"Okay." Chu Shuyao responded without sorrow or joy.

In the middle of the night, Meng Yichen asked with concern, "Are you tired?" ”

Chu Shuyao shook her head and said, "I'm not tired." ”

"The humidity is too heavy at night, and there is no moonlight tonight, so it is inconvenient to hurry, so it is better for us to rest first, and then we will have the strength to continue to rush tomorrow." Meng Yichen suggested.

"But, it's not easy for us to see people!"

Seeing that Chu Shuyao disagreed, Meng Yichen continued to persuade, "I know you are in a hurry to go back, it is precisely because we have seen people now that we have to stop and rest, after all, when we go out, we don't know what we have to face?" We need to have the strength to turn the tide! ”

"You're right." Chu Shuyao nodded in agreement.

For the night in the wilderness, a fire is a must, both to keep warm and to drive away wild animals. Of course, you can only light a fire if you don't have a pursuer. Otherwise, you will seek your own death.

Meng Yichen quickly lit the fire. There are no caves to stay in. Luckily, it won't rain tonight. The two of them searched for a stout and tall tree, flew up, and slept on the trunk.

Although Chu Shuyao does not have serious martial arts, she still has the kung fu of the three-legged cat. So it's not a problem to even climb and fly up this tree.

In the middle of the night, the firelight flickered on and off, and the two gradually fell into a dream.

Suddenly, the roar of a wild beast was heard not far away, and at the same time, the screams of people were heard.

Both of them were awakened, sat up from the trunk of the tree, and looked at each other in unison.

Meng Yichen whispered, "You wait here, I'll go over and take a look." ”

"No, I'm going too." Chu Shuyao disagreed.

"Obedient, you can only cause me trouble. I went by myself, and if I encountered danger, I could easily escape. ”

Hearing Meng Yichen say this, Chu Shuyao could only nod, "Okay, you can go with confidence!" I'm in the tree, and if you don't come back, I won't go down. ”

"Okay, wait until I get back." Meng Yichen descended from the tree neatly and hurried quickly in the direction where the voice came from.

In the quiet night, Chu Shuyao shrank on the trunk of the tree, anxious because she couldn't wait for Meng Yichen's arrival.

When she couldn't help but look for Meng Yichen, there was a rustling sound in the woods, which was the sound of fallen leaves being stepped on.

Soon, the smell of blood came through the air.

She was worried again, "Meng Yichen won't be hurt, right?" ”

I couldn't hold my breath anymore, I turned over and got off the tree, and I saw Meng Yichen within a few meters, and there was a strong man beside him, two of them, both covered in blood.

"Yichen, where are you injured?" Chu Shuyao ran over anxiously.

"Don't worry, I'm not injured, the blood on my body is all tiger's." Meng Yichen hurriedly explained.

That strong man is already dying. Chu Shuyao took a lot of effort to save him.

The strong man said that he was a hunter in this mountain, and this was not a deep mountain or old forest, and there was no such ferocious beast as a tiger before, so he was defenseless and would be injured by a tiger.

"I know that there are tigers in the mountains deeper, but tigers are also afraid of people, and they have never appeared in this place before. ”

As soon as Orion's words came out, Chu Shuyao and Meng Yichen instantly understood.

Before they fell off a cliff. I'm afraid that not only will those assassins continue to chase and kill in order to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, but the officers and soldiers of the Western Chu State will also come to look for them, right?

In this way, there were many more people in the mountains and forests for a while, and the tiger came here in a panic.

It's just those people, why haven't they been found? It's weird.

Both of them had a bad premonition in their hearts.

Orion could not walk, so the two sent him back to his home, where the light in the distance was Orion's home.

The hunters told them that if they went further from here, they could see the township, but it was only a day's journey.

Meng Yichen asked him again, do you know how the war between the Tanglin Kingdom and the Western Chu Kingdom is.

Orion said that he had gone out to the mountains a few days ago to exchange food. The Western Chu Kingdom is still quite peaceful now. But I heard that the Tanglin Kingdom is about to fight.

Chu Shuyao asked anxiously, "Didn't the Tanglin Kingdom all agree to make peace?" Why do you continue to attack? ”

"I heard that it was our princess who eloped with the general, and the Tanglin Kingdom felt that the Western Chu Kingdom was humiliating them, so they attacked even harder." Orion said sadly.

"What did you say?" Chu Shuyao's voice suddenly became eager.

This scared Orion.

Meng Yichen comforted her, "Shu'er, isn't this what we thought of a long time ago?" ”

Only then did Chu Shuyao realize that she had lost her proportion.

After saying goodbye to the Orion, it took only half a day for the two of them to rush to the township that the Orion had mentioned.

Knowing where you are, you can calculate how far you are from the Imperial City. It was only a two-day journey, and the two of them were too tired, so they stopped in the township and prepared to continue the journey the next day.

But early the next morning, they heard the news released by the imperial city, and the emperor announced to the people of Western Chu and the Tanglin Kingdom that the princess of Western Chu had been captured by gangsters and had died. The general went to save the princess, but now her life and death are unknown.

When the people heard the bad news, they were like a great enemy.

The princess died, no one went to make peace, and the Tanglin Congress continued to attack. And the Western Chu State has lost its general, how can it win?

This is simply a disaster for the Western Chu Kingdom!

After Chu Shuyao heard the news, she didn't say anything, and silently returned to her place.

Meng Yichen wanted to persuade her, but she didn't know how to persuade her.

Chu Shuyao said, "Go back!" Go back to help my father, and you must not let the Tanglin Kingdom attack you. ”

"I must go back, I want to go back and lead the army, so that the Tanglin Kingdom will never return. Shu'er, you also want to go back with me. ”

"I can't go back, if I do, then the news sent by my father is a lie. You don't have to joke, I can't put my father in a dilemma. ”

"And as long as I don't go back, the whole world will think I'm dead. There was no legitimate reason for the Tanglin State to attack the Western Chu State. My father can also send other princesses to make peace. ”

"Yichen, I beg you, go back quickly! My father has no generals available now. Must be in a hurry? ”

Regarding Chu Shuyao's words, Meng Yichen was noncommittal, but he still asked, "What about you?" If you go back with me, neither I nor your father will have the ability to hide you. If you can go back, your father and mother will be gratified. ”

"No, I can't go back, and I don't want to go back."

Knowing that Chu Shuyao had always been assertive and what she had decided could not be changed, Meng Yichen could only take a step back and asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Chu Shuyao smiled, "I think this township is very good." And I also love life in the mountains. I will live here for a while, and when the Western Chu Kingdom gets through this difficulty, I will go back as a woman. ”

"When the time comes, I can let my father, queen and mother stuff me into the house of a certain courtier as a daughter. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to give marriage and marry you? ”

When Chu Shuyao said this, the tenderness in her eyes made Meng Yichen lose her mind, and she had no chance to think about it.

After Meng Yichen returned to the imperial city, met the emperor and empress of Western Chu, and told them the true situation, the three of them suddenly came to their senses.

Meng Yichen panicked, "I'll go find her and bring her back." ”

"You don't have to go, it's too late." The queen said silently.

"My own daughter, I know for myself, if she has an idea and insists on not wanting us to find it, she will definitely not let us find it." The queen's tone was ethereal and her attitude was indifferent. But all of them reveal sadness.

The emperor also sighed, and then ordered, "General Meng, I order you to go to the battle site as soon as possible, and you must block the advance of the Tanglin Kingdom. ”

"Yes." Meng Yichen's eyes were red, and he looked like he would never return Loulan if he didn't break it.

In the dark night, Chu Shuyao took the sky as the quilt and the earth as the seat. In this world, there are the statues of the Three Kingdoms, Dongling in the east, West Chu in the west, Northern Desert in the north, and a small country in the south, which is southern Xinjiang.

There are many capable people in southern Xinjiang, who are good at medicine, good at poison, and good at Gu arts. However, southern Xinjiang is located in a remote area, with high mountains and lush forests, an underdeveloped economy and a small population. Therefore, it is located at the end of the four countries, and it is not among the three countries.

And Chu Shuyao originally went all the way to the east, she was going to Tanglin Kingdom, but halfway through, she went south again.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was a siege of Wei to save Zhao Yi. Then why didn't she come to the south to trap the east in order to save the west?

The terrain of southern Xinjiang is steep, full of mountains and forests, and it is humid and hot, and poisonous insects are everywhere.

If you don't know how to do it, I'm afraid you won't be able to enter this southern city. Fortunately, Chu Shuyao knows some medical and poison techniques. Even so, to be able to enter this southern Xinjiang city, it was exhausting and trembling.
