Chapter 231: Golden Cicada Shelling (3)

Yu Shangqing was kicked far away by this kick, he was so frightened that he hurriedly ran back, hugged Yuan Che's thigh and began to beg for mercy: "The son of the world spares his life!" The son of the world spares his life! The little ones don't dare anymore! You don't know the little two days...... It's worse than death! The little ones are no longer deserters! Otherwise, how can you be worthy of your dead brothers! ”

Yuan Che was so angry that he kicked him away again, standing still in place.

When Yun Xiao heard the end, she was really angry, and couldn't help but say to Yuan Che: "Shizi! Such a person should be sent to the government for investigation! Punish him severely! ”

"Xiaoxiao," Wei Nong stopped her, "The prince has his own opinions, let's not put a beak." ”

"I won't send him to the official mansion," Yuan Che slowly turned around, looked at Wei Nong and Yun Xiao, and showed a hint of interesting expression, "Don't we still lack a coachman?" ”

*****

From the next day, Yu Shangqing took over the work of the coachman. However, Yuan Che's original principle of "not hitting the top and not staying in the store" was also broken, and the time to travel a day was reduced from twelve hours to eight hours. The reason for this is that the first few days of travel were too hard, and the three horses were a little tired, and Weinong insisted on refusing to change horses; The second is that Momen has already been sneak attacked, and the killers must have chased in the direction of Jiang Guo, and now walking slower is beneficial to save their lives.

When Yuan Che, Wei Nong, and Yun Xiao sat in the chariot at the same time for the first time, the space seemed cramped. Wei Nong was still a little worried about Yu Shangqing's sudden appearance, so he asked Yuan Che in a low voice: "Is he really from the Weihou Mansion?" ”

Yuan Che yawned: "It looks familiar, it should be right." ”

"Such a greedy thing for life and afraid of death, you are not afraid that he will betray his master for glory?" Yun Xiao snorted coldly.

"Then he has to have a chance to sell it." Yuan Che smiled indifferently: "I told him, as long as he does a good job this time, this son will not be investigated in the past, and there will be a reward." ”

"This is really strange, you have always punished your subordinates severely, I thought you would settle accounts with him." A slight smile.

Yun Xiao also covered her mouth and snickered: "That's it, it's weird." Why are you so generous to a second-class guard who betrayed you? Is it really because of the lack of a coachman? ”

Yuan Che looked very calm: "Because he is handsome!" ”

The other two burst into laughter, diluting the grief and fear caused by the attack.

Because of Yu Shangqing's appearance, the relationship between the three of them has gradually undergone subtle changes, originally they were on their own guard, and they were a little wary of each other; But now they have become unanimous and tacitly guarding against Yu Shangqing.

But gradually, Wei Nong and Yun Xiao found that something was wrong - Yuan Che's attitude towards Yu Shangqing changed, originally he was not pretentious to him, and then he gradually said a few words to him, and then he talked and laughed, and the title changed from "Yu Shangqing" to "Xiao Yu", and finally to "Shang Qing".

When they entered the realm of Jiang Country, Yuan Che's eyes became a little ambiguous when he looked at Yu Shangqing. Thinking of the rumors of Yuan Che's good male style, Wei Nong and Yun Xiao had no choice but to pretend that they didn't see anything, and they were looking forward to seeing the connector arranged by Queen Jiang as soon as possible.

Long before leaving, Yunchen put the Dragon Yin Sword and the Shocking Sword together and said how to view the map. It turns out that the graphics on the body of the sword of the Thrilling Sword, at first glance, are as thin as the wings of a cicada, but in fact, the lines on the wings are a very hidden river in Jiang Country - the Cat's Eye River.

Before coming to Ningguo, Yunchen had used a stupid method, that is, with the assistance of Queen Jiang, he searched the Maoyan River. Originally, I thought that the collection of books must be related to the Maoyan River, but after searching for more than half a year, there were no clues in the upstream, downstream, bottom of the river, and riverside. Only then did he make up his mind to go to Ning Kingdom, firstly, he wanted to eradicate Nie Xing's trace by the hand of King Ning, and secondly, he wanted to find the Dragon Yin Sword.

After actually finding the Dragon Yin Sword and piecing the two swords together, Yunchen realized that he had found the wrong direction. The lines on the head of the Dragon Yin Sword and the Shocking Sword were unsurprisingly put together into a whole pattern, which also clearly showed that the birthplace of the Maoyan River was the place where the dragon mouth of the Dragon Yin Sword was located. If you look closely, the shape of the dragon's mouth is clearly like a mountain, and the place where the dragon's eye is located is where the books are stored!

In other words, the place where the books are stored is in the upper reaches of the Maoyan River, in a deep mountain that is inaccessible to people! And the only way to get into that mountain is to swim upriver from the Maoyan River.

Yuan Che was still lucky, and planned to bypass the connector after arriving in Jiang Guo. But because he was going to enter the mountain, he had to rely on Queen Jiang's men.

I don't know how Yunchen mentioned it to Queen Jiang, in short, Queen Jiang only sent one person to connect, which also greatly reduced the defense in the hearts of Yuan Che and the others. The name of the connector is "Nantian", he is an authentic Jiang countryman, and the two sides made an appointment to meet in Rongcheng on the border of Ningjiang and Jiang, and Nantian took them to the nearest ferry port to the Maoyan River.

"Our queen mother heard that your guest was attacked on the road, and she specially sent someone to inquire about the news, and she was worried about whether your guest would be able to make the appointment as scheduled!" Nantian expressed concern in place of Queen Jiang.

"Thank you for your concern." Yuan Che smiled perfunctorily: "We met a few bandits on the road, so we just calculated it." It's good in this way, so you don't have to trouble the mother to send someone to make a show. ”

Nantian didn't say anything more when he heard this, and honestly brought a group of four people to the ferry, and arranged a small boat that could barely fit the four people.

Yuan Che was not happy when he saw the ship: "So simple? ”

Nantian's explanation is very simple: "Don't get me wrong, it's not that the queen is reluctant to give you a big boat, but that the upper reaches of the Maoyan River are very narrow and deep, and there are strange rocks on both sides, and the boat is too high and too big to be stuck in the middle of the stone wall."

When Yuan Che heard this, he became vigilant: "How do you know so clearly? ”

Nantian didn't hide it: "The villain once followed Lord Yun to swim all over the Maoyan River. ”

Yuan Che sneered when he heard this, and didn't ask any more: "Then thank you Lord Nan, or we will leave here?" ”

Nantian was stunned when he heard this: "Don't you need a villain to send you into the mountain?" ”

Yuan Che pointed to the boat: "You also saw it, the four of us are going into the mountain, there are not so many places!" ”

Nan Tian was puzzled: "But the queen mother has explained that you only have three people into the mountain." The villain was still thinking that four people were barely enough to sit, and one more person would not work. ”

"But the plan can't keep up with the change!" Yuan Che shrugged: "Oh, why don't you find a bigger boat?" The five of us go into the mountains together? ”

Nantian shook his head: "No, the upper reaches of the Maoyan River are very narrow, and this boat is already the largest, no matter how big it is, it can't get by." ”

Yuan Che pretended to be regretful: "How is that good?" ”

Nantian's jaw tightened, scratched his head, and thought for a long time before he said: "Honorable guest, let the villain go with you, once you enter the mountain, the villain will not follow." Otherwise, it will be difficult for the villain to explain to the queen. ”

Yuan Che was a little embarrassed: "Then we have to leave one person behind." ”

As soon as his words fell, Yu Shangqing was already so frightened that he grabbed his sleeve: "Shizi, can you leave me!" I don't know this place well, and I've heard that there are Gu worms everywhere...... I'm ...... You can't leave me behind! ”

Hearing this, Yuan Che looked at Yu Shangqing with that kind of reluctant look, then looked at Wei Nong, and finally looked at Yun Xiao, obviously very hesitant.

Yun Xiao couldn't stand it anymore, and persuaded with disgust: "Shizi, we are here to do big things, do you still want to take this dispensable man?" Let's let Nan-sama go with me. ”

"Who said I was dispensable!" Yu Shangqing glared at Yun Xiao fiercely: "I, I, I, I can row!" ”

Wei Nong stood with Yuan Che for the first time, and said to Yun Xiao: "Since the prince is reluctant to leave the guards, let's bring them." In case of an accident in the mountains, there are many people to protect us. ”

Nantian was obviously not convinced: "The villain can also protect the guests. ”

Wei Nong blinked, pretending to ask: "Huh? Didn't Nanda just say, you only sent us to the foot of the mountain? So what happens to us in the mountains, and how can you protect it? ”

Nantian was stunned for a moment, his face was a little unbearable, so he had to hold on and said, "That villain will follow the distinguished guest into the mountain." ”

smiled slightly: "Then didn't you disobey the order of the queen's mother?" If it's for the sake of the three of us, how about you being condemned again? ”

Nantian couldn't speak anymore.

Yuan Che and Wei Nong glanced at each other tacitly, and the former sighed again: "The queen mother has helped me here, I am already grateful, how dare I bother Lord Nan again?" You just go back and tell the truth to the queen, I believe that the mother will not blame. ”

The expression on Nantian's face was wonderful, and he was silent for a long time before finally nodding.

Yuan Che took out a brocade box from his baggage and handed it to Nantian: "Be careful, thank you Nan for your help." ”

Nantian hurriedly refused: "No, no, no, if you let the queen know, the villain will ......"

"The queen won't know," Yuan Che winked at him, "Otherwise, the adults will open it and take a look?" ”

Nantian hesitated for a moment, and saw that the brocade box was very exquisite, but after all, he couldn't hold back his curiosity and opened it to take a look. However, at a glance, his expression became very strange, like surprise, like joy, and finally he didn't say anything, and bowed directly to Yuan Che to thank him: "Villain, thank you for the reward." ”

Yuan Che waved his hand at him: "Lord Nan is too polite. ”

Nan Tian then pointed to the location of the rear compartment of the ship, where a very large oil paper bag was placed: "There is dry food for three people, enough to eat for three months." For easy storage, only naan. Please don't be surprised. ”

"It's okay, it's okay," Yuan Che replied with a smile, "The queen is really thoughtful!" Then we're going to take our leave! ”

Nantian nodded, looked at the baggage carried by several people, and reminded: "The distinguished guests have too many bags to fit in this boat." ”

As soon as Yuan Che and the others looked at the situation of the ship, and then looked at the package they were carrying, they knew that what Nantian said was true. So a few people unloaded on the spot, threw away everything they could throw, and took a few pieces of clothes with them. Everyone had prepared a rudimentary tent, but now they were forced to throw two, and only the necessities such as water bladders, knives, condiments, pots and pans were left.

After packing like this, more than half of my bags were missing, and I could barely put them in the back cabin. Yuan Che then asked Yu Shangqing to get on the boat first, and only after he had put his bags in place did he follow, and found the most comfortable place to sit down. Wei Nong followed behind Yuan Che, and Yun Xiao was the last to get on the boat.

When she walked past Nantian, she suddenly looked at the upper reaches of the Maoyan River and sighed long: "This Maoyan River is rugged and narrow, and we are going against the current, but it is really difficult to go to the blue sky!" ”

(Some readers asked why there was only 1 woman in the team pursued by Momen, and I explained briefly: Yun Xiao came out pretending to be a maid, and King Ning only knew that he had arranged 1 maid for Wei Nong, if the 2 women died during the chase, it would be easy for people to suspect that this was a plan for the golden cicada to get out of her shell, and Wei Nong found someone to pretend to be herself, and she ran away by herself.) But if there is only 1 maid, the killers must think that it is Wei Nong, but the real identity of this girl happens to be the maid of Wei Hou Mansion, from the perspective of King Ning, whether she is dead or not, in the end it can only be proved that she is the so-called Wei Nong maid, then the real Wei Nong is obviously missing and taken captive with Yuan Che. )
