Chapter 589: Slipping to the bottom

Early the next morning, Mu Jiu took Luo Xi and the others to continue north.

The snow was falling, and sometimes, the markers were covered in snow and were difficult to find, and the speed of travel was even slower.

The surroundings were white, and Mu Jiu really couldn't find the mark, and he couldn't tell where the road was and where the jungle was.

Luo Xi's brows furrowed deeply, "Brother and sister, if it really doesn't work, forget it, I'll find a way." ”

When he said this, Mu Jiu couldn't face him, "Look for it again, you will find the mark." Is there anyone in the big brother who is familiar with this path? ”

One of the people brought by Luo Xi happened to be familiar with this road and stood up, "My subordinates are familiar." ”

"How to get to Beidi?" Mu Jiu really couldn't recognize the way, if he found the way, maybe the mark would be easier to find.

"I remember it wasn't the main road, it was just a small road." The man said, "The official road is from another place, and I thought you need to take this way, so I didn't say it." ”

"The path is right, they are holding Fan'er, it is unlikely that they will take the big road." Luo Xi stood beside Mu Jiu, "Take the path." ”

The man led the way in front, and after a short time, Mu Jiu found the mark left by the interruption on a tree and continued to walk forward.

One foot deep and one foot shallow, the group walked for a long time and came to a cliff.

"This used to be the Beidi Kingdom, because there were cliffs everywhere, and the government didn't send people to guard it." Although Luo Xi has never been here, he lives in the north, and he has heard some about the border pass.

"There are footprints here!" Not far away, the person who led the way hurriedly ran back and said in a low voice.

Luo Xi made a defensive gesture, and his people immediately dispersed.

Everyone is wearing white clothes and cloaks, and it is not easy to be spotted if they find a random place to squat.

At this time, Mu Jiu had little experience, so he squatted down with Luo Xi's subordinates, waiting for Luo Xi's next instructions.

At this time, Luo Xi quietly moved forward.

Mu Jiu also hunched over and walked forward following Luo Xi's footsteps.

Only then did I find that there was a large group of horses under the cliff, and there was something on the back of the horse, and it seemed that there was a group of people moving under the horse, and the other party was also wearing white clothes, and it was impossible to tell whether it was from the Great Xia Kingdom or the Beidi Kingdom.

Mu Jiu asked Luo Xi in a low voice, "Can you see which country it is?" ”

Luo Xi said, "Beidi." ”

"The people of Beidi want to climb up from here?" Mu Jiu's intuition was so.

Luo Xi shook his head, "This cliff is covered with thick snow, you can barely try to climb it in summer, and it is basically impossible to climb up in winter." ”

At this time, the person who led the way crawled over again, "Master, I found a chain over there." ”

Luo Xi and Mu Jiu followed behind him and walked towards the chain.

I saw a big tree next to the cliff, the chains were tied to the big tree, and the other end hung to the bottom of the cliff.

"You can slide down from here." Luo Xi took a step forward.

"Boom la la ......"

A large white avalanche collapsed and slid down the cliff.

"Be careful!" Mu Jiu subconsciously reached out to pull Luo Xi.

"Be careful!" Luo Xi was worried about Mu Jiu again, and hurriedly pulled her.

The two took two steps back and smiled at each other.

"Be careful." Mu Jiu said again, squatting under the big tree, "Do they want to climb up from here?" ”

"I don't know, but I need to talk to General Sun about this situation." The Locke family is well-known in this area of the north, and with the fact that they have delivered supplies to General Sun several times, they can talk to General Sun.

"It's better to divide our troops into two ways, send one person to find General Sun, and the others stay to see if we can find the mark left by the interruption and find Luo Fan." Mu Jiu was unwilling to give up looking for Luo Fan.

Luo Xi shook his head, "At this time, Fan'er will definitely fall into their hands, instead of wasting time here, it is better to go to General Sun, maybe he has a way." ”

"But ......"

Mu Jiu was still unwilling to give up, but Luo Xi had already made up his mind, "Go immediately!" ”

At this moment, a large ball of snow suddenly slipped from the tree and rolled in front of Mu Jiu, "Young master! You're here! ”

Mu Jiu fixed his eyes and saw that it was Mu Xuxuan who was disguised, with several small wounds on his face, and the dark circles under his eyes were very heavy.

"Let's get up first, tell me what's going on?" Mu Jiu personally helped Mu Xuan to break up.

"I was discovered by them just after I went down, a person is not their opponent, so I had to reluctantly climb up, and I have been hiding here, and Young Master Luo Fan is below."

As soon as he heard that Luo Fan was below, Luo Xi was excited, "I'm going to rescue Fan'er!" ”

"Big brother, don't worry, there are at least thousands of people below you, and there are only a dozen of us, if we go down rashly, not only can we not save Luo Fan, but we will lose ourselves below."

Luo Xi was worthy of being the head of the family, and quickly calmed down, "Let's go find General Sun first." ”

Let the person who knows the way lead the way, and the others stay here to continue to track Luo Fan, hurrying slowly, and finally arrived at General Sun's camp before dark, and in the white expanse, let the soldiers on guard go in and pass the word, and found General Sun.

Despite several correspondences, this was the first time Mu Jiu had met General Sun.

Stationed at the border all the year round, the hunting north wind blew his skin rough, making him look several years older than his actual age, but his eyes were blazing, giving people a sense of solemn and inviolable majesty.

"I've seen General Sun." Mu Jiu thought about it and clenched his fists in a manly way.

"The head of the Mu courtyard is really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows, and the old man admires it!" General Sun also clenched his fists, "Thank you for the good things sent by the head of the Mu Yuan two days ago, it came in handy!" ”

"It's good to be able to use it!"

Luo Xi on the side was dumbfounded, "So you know each other!" ”

Ben also wanted to give Mu Jiu an introduction, who knows, the relationship between General Sun and Mu Jiu seems to be a little better than the relationship between him and General Sun, after greeting him, he chatted with Mu Jiu.

"Oh, that's half a father." Mu Jiudao, because Sun Zeyun called her sister.

Looking at General Sun, "General Sun doesn't mind if I call you that!" ”

General Sun is a pleasant person, and let out a hearty laugh, "Yun'er calls you sister, Jinxiu and you are the best sister, and you are called a father-in-law." ”

"Father-in-law!" Mu Jiu knelt down in front of General Sun seriously and made a big salute.

"Hey!" General Sun hurriedly helped the person up, "Since then, I have another good daughter, and my father-in-law will thank you for all the officers and soldiers." ”

"The father-in-law is serious, the rise and fall of the country, the husband is responsible!"

Mu Jiu really admires these soldiers who have been stationed at the border all the year round, because they shed their blood at the border pass, so that she can do business at home and make money to raise her children.

"Good boy!" General Sun's eyes were red, "Good boy." ”

There are many emotions in Luo Xi's eyes that are difficult to be strict.

At the beginning, he just took care of Mu Jiu for Lin Changsheng's sake, and followed Mu Jiu all the way to find a mark, he fell in love with this girl who insisted, naturally, it was the kind of liking that the elders liked when they saw the younger ones they liked, with a sense of relief.

Now listening to the conversation between the two, although he didn't know what happened between the two, he guessed that Mu Jiu had done a lot for the Northern Army.

After greeting General Sun for a few words, Mu Jiu got to the point and told General Sun about the situation on the other side of the cliff, hoping that General Sun could help them rescue Luo Fan.

General Sun's face was solemn, he pondered for a moment, and called Vice General Li.

Luo Fan was eager to save people, and took the deputy general and set off quickly.

Mu Jiu thought about it, took some of the poisonous cigarettes that General Sun had given him before, and followed them and set off together.

By the time we reached the cliff again, it was already the middle of the night.

Mu Xuduan and the others didn't dare to make a fire to startle the grass and scare the snake, so they ate dry food in the snow.

"How?" Mu Jiu came to Mu Xu's side.

"It's still down there, they're already encamped, most of them are asleep, but there are patrols, and in half an hour it's the sleepiest time of the day, and we'll find a way to touch it and take a look."

The cliffs are so high that even if there is snow shining on them, you can't see the bottom of the valley clearly.

"It's poisonous smoke, you find a way to set it off at the upwind outlet." Mu Jiu took out a packet of powder and handed it to Mu Xuxuan, "Be sure to bring Luo Fan back!" ”

"Don't worry, young master, wrap it up on me!" Mu Xuan patted his chest without hesitation and promised.

Mu Jiu understood Mu Xuan, "Well, I trust you, pay attention to safety, just rescue people, you don't need to think about other things." ”

"Got it, young master!" Mu was the first to slide down the chain.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Xi's people and Luo Xi, as well as the people brought by Vice General Li, all slid down.

Mu Jiu was the only one left on the cliff, staring at the chains tied to the big tree without blinking.

About an hour later, the sky was about to dawn, Mu Jiu hadn't seen any movement below, and his heart was happy, didn't he succeed?

Unable to hold back the joy in his heart, Mu Jiu stood on the edge of the cliff,

If there is no sound, I dare not pack the ticket, it must have succeeded, but there is no movement, it must not be exposed, and there will be no danger of death without exposure.

If it is exposed, there must be various sounds of catching assassins below.

When it was dawn, Mu Xuan climbed up from below, "Young Master go down together, let's go back from another place." ”

"Have you rescued anyone?" Mu Jiu first focused on Luo Fan.

"I was rescued, I was slightly injured, but I just need to go back and rest for a few days." Mu Xuan said as he took out a soft rope, "The young master is tied!" ”

Mu Jiu shook his head and didn't take his safety rope, "It's still easy to go down." ”

The so-called safety rope actually doesn't have much effect.

"Young master, be careful!"

In Mu Jiu's worry and surprise, Mu Jiu had already grabbed the chain and slid down, and only went down more than ten meters in an instant.

Mu Xuan caught up with Mu Jiu's speed and slipped to the bottom together.

When he reached the bottom of the valley, Mu Jiu noticed that it was terrifyingly quiet here.

"Stunned by poison." Mu Xuan explained, "I guess they want to go up from here and grab some food." ”

Mu Jiu nodded and did not speak.

Because she saw a corpse being thrown on the ground at random, half of the corpse was buried in the snow, but from the half of the body exposed in the snow, it could be seen that the other party was as thin as wood, as if he had not eaten for a long time.
