Chapter 100: A Detour
When Bayu woke up from his coma, the four of them had already arrived at the shore of Boyin Lake. Located in the underground cave, the lake is lit up by the faint light that comes in through the rocks, like a moonless night sky, but the lake is the night and the light is the stars, which is very shining.
They made a fire, and when Bayu woke up, he found himself lying next to the pile of flames, while Jiuhan, Wei Xicheng and Wu Liangzi were sitting around the fire, and their expressions didn't seem to be very good.
Bayu, who woke up, saw Wu Liangzi for the first time, and was shocked. She said in her heart that she had finally met this Wu Xiaoxian Master again, although she had done a lot of psychological construction before, but when she saw this girl again, she still had a different feeling in her heart. After settling down, she immediately found that only nine and a half of the three were facing away from her, and Wei Xicheng, who was next to the nine and a half, was naked at the moment, wring out the wet water on his clothes.
Although he is close to middle age and has become a father, Wei Xicheng's figure is still out of shape. At this moment, he was like a sculpture, and the water in his wet hair that had not yet been wiped dry ran down his cheeks, dripped on his full pectoral muscles, and then ran down his extraordinarily distinct eight-pack abs, and finally flowed to the ground. If this man is not a dart master and is not a person who walks the rivers and lakes, then he must be very charming in the world, right? But even if he is not charming now? The answer is definitely no, but at this moment this charming man can only belong to one person.
What are you thinking?Shaking his head to recover from his thoughts, Ba Yu sat up and shook his somewhat sore shoulders and body to Wei Xicheng and said, "Brother Wei, what's wrong with you?"
Wei Xicheng smiled at Ba Yu and then wiped the water droplets on his face, and said, "It's nothing, I just got into the water, and my clothes are wet." As he spoke, he continued to twist his clothes, and the water, which had seemed to be almost dry, was pouring out a lot of water under the pressure of his bruised arms.
What are you doing in the water? Just when Ba Yu was puzzled, Jiu Ban sat there with his chin in his hands and spoke: "If what Brother Wei said is right, then those fish that appear in Boyin Lake are very likely to be mediocre fish." There was a clear worry in Nine-Half's words, and this worry piqued Hachiha's curiosity. What is that?
"It must be a mediocre fish, do you need to say it? Not only do I say that my arms are still numb now, but you can see what the fish are shining?" Wei Xicheng finished twisting his clothes and draped them over his shoulders, and then pointed his hand to the thin sound lake. Looking in the direction that Wei Xicheng pointed to, the Boyin Lake in Bayu's eyes was actually emitting a bright blue light at this time, as if it was a vision from the sky.
Seeing the thin sound lake that glowed with blue light, a certain trick in Hachiha's mind opened up in an instant. As a child, she had seen in her family's collection of fish, a fish that had long been extinct, but it was definitely not to be underestimated. The fish has light, and if you touch it, you will be poisoned, and if you see it, there will be a great drought in its city. If there were a large number of mediocre fish in this Boyin Lake, I am afraid that the path mentioned by Nine and a Half years ago would never be able to be completed again.
The wind whirred through the cracks in the middle of the different rocks into the Boyin Lake underneath, blowing nine and a half of the heart for a while. If this passage to Lake Boyin is not connected, then everything becomes very dangerous. Although the Mocking Wind Monarch arranged a large number of troops to attack the overlord country, there were definitely not a few troops left behind in Shiwang City. What's more, before the previous war with Zhu Yan and others, Zhu Yan had vaguely mentioned the words "four offerings", if there are four offerings, then presumably three offerings, two offerings, and a big offering must also exist. Even if they don't send an army to hunt them down, if the so-called three offerings, two offerings, or even the big offerings come out to chase them down by one person, I'm afraid they won't be able to escape.
Thinking of this, everything seemed imminent, but I couldn't think of any good solution for a while, so I could only do it there in a hurry. Looking at Jiuhan's anxious appearance, Bayu and Wei Xicheng couldn't help but be a little anxious, but Wu Liangzi's expression was very calm, and after listening to Jiuhan's words, she seemed to have thought of a solution.
"So Nine and a Half, do you think that the transmission circle of Boyin Lake that you mentioned before is not going to work at the moment, right?"
"Yes. If a large number of mediocre fish suddenly appear at the bottom of this thin sound lake, then it will definitely not work. You must know that the fish is poisonous, and if we rush into the water, I am afraid that we will die before we reach the place where the teleportation circle is located. Nine and a half said. As if he had a flea on his head, he tugged at his head a little frantically, as if he could come up with a solution.
After listening to the words of nine and a half, the word scoundrel did not show any frustration. Suddenly, out of nowhere, she suddenly pulled out a scroll, and then "snapped" and slapped it on the ground, stirring up a burst of dust that was still a little choking.
When he opened the scroll with his own hands, the maps of the nine kingdoms were displayed one by one. As the scroll opened, Wu Liangzi spoke, "Then I think we may have to choose some other ways to deal with it." ”
Jiuhan, who had a sad face, pounced on the map after seeing it, he pounced on the map and examined it carefully, and then said to Wu Liangzi without raising his head: "Master Wu Xiaoxian, Master Wu Xiaoxian, you are really a baby." How do you think of bringing a map with you? It's a life-saver!"
"Who am I? I'm Wu Liangzi. Besides, are you really like me like you?" Wu Liangzi raised her head a little proudly, and then she raised her hand and directly pushed Jiuhan's body away, pointed to a certain point on the map and said, "We are currently in this location, that is, in the north of Shiwang City. If you want to return to the country of my prisoner cow from here, you must pass through the border of the country of the overlord, and at this time, the country of the overlord has fallen and the army of the mocking wind may return to Shiwang City at any time, so I suggest that we go here," Wu Liangzi pointed his finger to a point in the northwest direction of Shiwang City, and said: "This is the departure from the city, I think it is best for us to settle here first, and then make plans." ”
Out of town, it's a bit noisy.
There were obviously a lot more guards at the city gate than usual, and the inspection was much stricter, and even some girls had to pinch their heads if they had a ball on their heads, and they could only be released if there was nothing hidden inside. The swords-wielding guards roamed around the gates in a majestic manner, but never said that they had caught anyone.
At the city gate, two squad leaders, each leaning on the city wall, yawned listlessly. They enlisted in the army at the same time, and now it has been four or five years, and they are no longer those recruits who pretend to be majestic and patrol the streets as soon as martial law is mentioned. After staying in the army for a long time, they know those rules better than others, and they have not been promoted because they have not been promoted? Isn't it because they have not been able to worship the backers? Isn't it just that they have been arranged to see the city gate so that it will be more convenient for them to kick people in the future? They have seen through it.
"Hey, you say, can there really be big fish this time?" said the squad leader standing on the left after looking at the team entering the city. The people who went into the city today were still the same as usual, the peasants selling vegetables, the fat-headed merchants with their servants and the old women carrying baskets of eggs were as many as usual, and he was really not very interested.
The squad leader standing on the right yawned firmly, and then said, "I said, my brother, we have been standing here for three years, have you seen any big fish entering the city through the city gate? He raised his hand and plucked out his ears, and said, "Besides, what are those big fish? What is that concept?"
This person seemed to be getting more and more energetic the more he spoke, he turned sideways to look at the other squad leader, and his eyes were shining: "That is a master of the semi-saint realm, and when he enters the national capital, he can directly seal the existence of a second-grade master." Even if we find them at the gates, can we stop them? ”
"Hey......" The squad leader standing on the left sighed, and his mood didn't seem to be very high. "To put it bluntly, we are cannon fodder. If it is really found out, what we can do is to delay the people for a while and a half, and then the city lord will lead the troops to arrest them, and finally our people will return to the west, and the credit belongs to others, and the generation after generation has come over like this?" At this moment a soldier trotted up to him, stood still and saluted, and then said, "Report to the captain!" Four foreign merchants appeared at the gate of the city......
It seemed that the captain didn't have any more patience to listen to the soldiers, he simply waved his hand and then said impatiently: "Okay, okay, don't check, the exotic merchants are generally fine, let them pass." He yawned and looked up at the sky, not knowing what to think.
The soldier trotted back again to inform the release.
Leaving the city, four aliens dressed in khaki clothes and half-covered faces walked down the street, and the rate of turning back was quite high. Two men and two women, although they were merchants, did not actually have anything to do with the goods in their hands.
"Master Wu Xiaoxian, you really have you, why do you say you are so smart?" one of the men opened the light veil covering his face a little and said to the woman next to him: "It's just that this thing that blocks the face is really a little breathless, too uncomfortable." ”
Wu Liangzi, who was next to him, was a little proud, so he smiled and said, "Come on, nine and a half, you don't have any uncomfortable times." Now that we have entered the city, let's quickly find an inn and then stay there, and then we can think about it in the long run. As they spoke, the group of four walked to the door of an inn. As soon as I looked up, four big characters on the huge plaque fell into my eyes: Chang'an Inn. I was very happy when I looked at the name of the store.
"Otherwise, we will live here?" Wu Liangzi asked, Jiuhan and Bayu both said that they had no objections, but Wei Xicheng on the side was a little stunned and did not speak for a while.
Looking at Wei Xicheng as if he was stunned, Jiu Ban turned his body with his elbow and then said, "Brother Wei, what are you doing?
Wei Xicheng sniffled and reflected: "Oh...... Stay in the hotel, right? You guys go in first, I'll be back in a while!" Before he finished speaking, he dodged and ran in another direction, leaving him to shake his head helplessly: "Yes, let's go in first." ”
After entering the store, I asked for a few upper rooms and then went in to change back into my usual clothes, and Jiuhan and Wu Liangzi and Bayu came to the lobby together to prepare something to eat. Eight meat and eight vegetarian ordered a bunch, and Jiu Ban shouted at Xiao Er to serve the food quickly, and then turned his gaze to Wu Liangzi and Eight Yu in an instant. His eyes looked at the two girls and then said, "How about the two of you, what do you think?"
"What Takami?" Hachiha said.
"What's the next road?" Jiu Ban lowered his voice, there was a feeling of pretending to be mysterious at this moment, but Wu Liangzi could see at a glance that his spirit was already very relaxed at this time. "The armies of the two countries have already done such a big thing, I'm afraid the next step is to move the country of the ox. And we can't stay in the city for the rest of our lives, right? At this time, we can't find Tan Yiju, of course, we have to decide what to do for ourselves. ”
Looking at Jiuhan's face, he suddenly remembered something, and then Wu Liangzi said: "Jiuhan, you just ordered so much, you don't seem to have ordered staple food, don't you eat something?"
Nine and a half were stunned for a moment, and the next moment his expression became a little obscene. "Then I said sister, I want to eat steamed buns, okay?" As he spoke, his gaze quietly moved to Wu Liangzi's chest. At this time, Wu Liangzi was wearing a low-cut dress, and her neck was snow-white, which really made people feel a little confused.
The eight feathers on the side obviously understood something, and their faces turned red to the root of their ears in an instant. After being stunned for a moment, Wu Liangzi also reacted, and then she smiled and raised her right hand, and then slapped it lightly towards Jiu Ban's face. What is a little miraculous is that Jiu Ban didn't dodge at this time, but every time Wu Liangzi slapped his face, the big boy trembled as if he had been electrocuted. slapped it lightly with three slaps in a row, and the nine and a half immediately collapsed on the table, silent.
"Nine and a half, we can eat indiscriminately, but we can't talk nonsense!"
Seeing Jiu Ban slumped on the table, Ba Yu asked a little timidly, "Sister...... What did you do to him?"
"It's okay," Wu Liangzi said with a smile, "It's just a few strokes gently, but it's just a little electricity." It's just that at this time, Wu Liangzi's smile looks like a demon in Bayu's eyes.
And at this time, Jiu Ban suddenly raised his head from the table: "Why is it okay, look at this, look at this!" he said while shaking his slightly swollen face from side to side and said, "Look at how you have broken my handsome face!"
"So, do you want to do it again?" After seeing Jiuhan's reaction, Wu Liangzi smiled again and raised her palm, and Jiuhan retracted her head violently like a frightened pine tree at this moment, shaking her head desperately.
"So now let's talk about what to do next. Wu Liangzi sat up slightly and said. Hearing this, Jiu Ban also leaned over and put on a deaf look, but his movements were slightly exaggerated.
Taking out the map again and spreading it out on the table, Wu Liangzi's expression was a little worried, "Now the situation is like this, we are already in the westward part of the entire continent, very close to the coastline. At this time, the two countries of Mocking Wind and Jairus have just broken through the capital of the Overlord Country, and the main forces must be concentrated here," Wu Liangzi put his finger on the position of the capital of the Overlord Country, and then moved to the left and pointed to the coastline to the west of the Tyrant Country, "And if we choose to go north along the coastline, not only will the forces of the two countries of Mocking Wind and Jairus be very small, but at the same time, we will be able to reach the territory of the Prisoner Cow Country as quickly as possible." As long as we reach the territory of the land of the imprisoned cows, then we will be much safer. ”
"So you mean we want to go all the way west, first to the coastline and then north?" asked Nine-Half.
"Yes, that's right, and that's the safest way to do it right now. ”
"But, if that's the case, why don't we get a boat on the beach, and then go directly to the territory of the Cow Prison Country by sea and land?" As he spoke, Nine Half pointed to the western coastline of the Land of the Mocking Wind, and then took a large arc to point directly at the Prison Cow from the sea.
Faced with his question, Wu Liangzi shook his head gently, with an idiot-like expression on his face.
"It's not as simple as you think. The first thing is that we can't get a boat, and none of you and I can sail a boat. Secondly, the sea has always been the world of the people of the country of Pulao, and it is difficult to get a boat by almost no one in the country of the mocking wind, and no one has explored the sea area to the west of the mocking wind. Are you going to let us start anew without preparation and information?"
