Volume 1, The Sound of the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 23, The Northland World

Lin Yueshan held the sword in his hand and turned around slowly, but when he saw Lao Li behind him looking at him smiling obscenely, his heart was about to jump out, so he put it back, and couldn't help but punch Lao Li: "You really scared me out of the way, I thought I was discovered just after I came." ”

"The young master's psychological quality is still not good enough, it seems that we haven't been out for a long time to practice?" Lao Li was hit by Linyue Mountain with a smile, "Young master, the northland is different from our rivers and lakes back then, let's go back, right?"

"I just came out and was discovered by my father? ”

"Young master, this trip is not a child, not a child, the danger of the Northland is extraordinary in itself, not to mention that the situation in the Northland is not quite right recently, Song Tian's rangers have come out so much, none of them have gone back, not even the one who passed on the news, and the current Northland is probably a hundred times more terrifying than before." ”

"Lao Huang, no matter what you say, I won't go back, either come with me, or go back by yourself. Lin Yueshan said as he drilled into the dense forest, "I have also learned kung fu now, at least simple self-protection is no problem." ”

Lao Huang sighed and chased after him, following behind Linyue Mountain: "Young Master, if you really don't go back, Lao Huang will accompany you on a trip, but if there is danger, after I come to break off, you must leave quickly, I heard General Lin say when I left, the barbarian attack is too fierce, I can't only retreat to other cities in the north, stay too long, I'm afraid that if the northern city is captured, we won't even have a place to retreat." ”

"Don't be verbose, Lao Huang, Northern City will definitely not be lost, you hurry up and keep up. Lin Yueshan took a sword to cut off the dead branches and small trunks in front of him, and walked briskly, Lao Huang quickened his pace and followed closely behind him.

The dense forest at night is quiet and terrible, as if there is only the footsteps of Linyue Mountain and Lao Li between heaven and earth, in order to avoid too much sound, Linyue Mountain put away the sword, not cutting the road, even the pace has slowed down a lot, but even so, the surroundings are still quiet, only the footsteps of two people, at this moment, Lin Yueshan heard the sound of sparse leaves behind his head, and wanted to turn his head, but was only pressed down by one hand, and his head was buried heavily in the bushes, but after a while, Linyue Mountain felt that his hand was held down and taken away, Linyue Mountain raised his head and saw a female barbarian who was choked by Lao Li's throat, and both hands were grabbed by Lao Li, the female barbarian's eyes were flustered, and she kept trying to shake her head.

Lin Yueshan saw that the female barbarian was dressed plainly, and she had no weapons, unlike the barbarian soldiers on the battlefield, so he motioned Lao Li to let go a little, and asked, "Who are you, why did you come to attack us?" When the female barbarian heard this, she shook her head again and again, sat and booed, and then stopped in the jungle not far away, and a trace of fire flashed in the jungle, and Lin Yueshan hurriedly pulled Lao Li to lie down. The female barbarian immediately lay down, and a group of patrolling brutes walked past the three of them. "Search carefully, I found two spies just now, and other patrols have also found them, and there must be soldiers from the north today, don't let any of them go. The patrol team spoke barbarian language, Lin Yueshan didn't understand it very well, but he could understand a little, looking at the blood stains on the brute knife that had not dried up, and he understood it all at the moment, Lin Yueshan was resentful in his heart, but thinking about his purpose, he lowered his head and buried his head lower.

Fortunately, the appearance of the female barbarian allowed Lin Yueshan and Lao Li to see the arriving barbarians in advance, so they avoided the search of the barbarians without danger, and the barbarians quickly walked past the three of them, Lin Yueshan raised his head and looked at the female barbarians who were still controlled by Lao Li: "Why did you save us?" The female barbarian looked left and right, did not speak, just pointed to herself and pointed to Linyue Mountain and Lao Li, and in the future, she pulled Lao Li to control her hand, signaled Lao Li to let go, and after Lao Li let go, the female barbarian walked forward, saw that the two did not move, and came forward to pull, and then walked forward, looking back from time to time to see if the two followed.

Lao Li glanced at Linyue Mountain, Linyue Mountain had just entered the dense forest, and he didn't know how to go, looking at the female barbarian meant to let them follow, and this person didn't seem to have malicious intent, Linyue Mountain thought about it, nodded, and motioned for Lao Li to follow the female barbarian.

The female barbarian jumped up and down in the dense forest, walked very fast, and then looked at Linyue Mountain and Lao Li, it seemed much more laborious, fortunately, the female barbarian would always stop and wait for the two after walking too far, the two did not lose it, and the time could not be felt in the dense forest, so the two did not know how long they walked, anyway, when Linyue Mountain felt that his legs were sore, a white snowfield was imprinted into the eyes of Linyue Mountain, and the female barbarian replied to the two:" You don't want to die, the demon jungle is the front line, there are not only soldiers but also evil ghosts, aren't you afraid of death walking around in the evil ghost jungle?" the female barbarian said word by word, thinking that she was not used to speaking the official language of Daqi.

"Do you know we're not barbarians?" Lin Yueshan pointed at himself and then at Lao Li.

"Don't be a barbarian, we are Northlanders, and I have a name, my name is Mishaya, you can't find your way in the demon jungle, you can't even go up the tree, of course I know that you are not Northlanders, although you wear our clothes, but if you smell it for a while, you will know that you have a different smell on you. Mishaya pointed at herself and then at the two of them, sniffling as if to show off.

"Then where are you taking us?" Lin Yueshan was a little more vigilant when he heard Mishaya's words, although he couldn't feel Mishaya's malice, but in the Northland, it was better to be careful after all.

"Don't worry, we Northland people don't like to fight, although there is no food in Northland every winter, we have to rob, but robbing is the business of warriors, we are just ordinary people, usually there are people from outside who come to Northland with packages, they give us food, we give them stones, we don't like fighting, we villagers don't like it. Besides, we only went out to fight because we were hungry and went hunting, and the barbarian god said that just like the Northland Tiger will eat us, the Northland Giant will also eat us, but the relationship between eating and being eaten, we don't want to eat you, so why should I harm you?" Misaya said flatly.

Mishaya walked forward, Lin Yueshan and Lao Li followed behind, although the two were still a little guarded, but they were already much better than at the beginning. Soon, on a piece of snow, the two found a village, surrounded by sharpened trees, leaving only one exit, no one at the exit, the wooden door was opened so widely, inside the wall was a house made of ice, in a semicircle, the village was mostly women and children and old people, seeing Mishaya was smiling and greeting, as for Linyue Mountain and Lao Li, some children will feel curious to look twice, but will soon be taken away by adults, everything is no different from a human village, and even more peaceful and harmonious。

Mishaya took the two to an igloo, the igloo has no door, there is a curtain in it blocking a bed, and another piece of ice in the house, the shape is the same as the entrance of the igloo, it may be the door of the igloo, all the furniture in the house is wooden, it is a bit far-fetched to say that the furniture is a bit far-fetched, but it is a bed and a table, and a log should be used as a bench, there is almost no iron riding in the whole house, Mishaya ran to the curtain as soon as he entered the house, and then walked out with a box, the box is made of ice, not too thick, and even the gems contained in it can be seen, Mishaya smiled and came to the two with the box in front of them。 "Hey, did you bring anything good to eat, this is the stone I saved this year, and I haven't brought anything from outsiders this year." You can choose first, these are the best stones I have been looking for for a long time. ”

Linyue Mountain only knew at this moment that Mishaya regarded them as merchants who came to the Northland, and there were often merchants in the North who came to the Northland with food and exchanged food for some gems, although this way was more dangerous, but if it succeeded, it would be a lot of money, so even if it was dangerous, there were still many merchants who were not afraid of death who came with food, but this year the siege came too early, and most of the merchants did not come out of the city in a hurry, so they were blocked in the city.

Misaya smiled and took out a few stones in the box and put them in front of Linyue Mountain: "Nuo, you see, these are all the stones I have carefully selected, and they are all the most beautiful stones." Lin Yueshan glanced at the stones in front of him, almost all of them were real stones, but the stones that Mishaya put in the box and thought they were not good-looking were some gems that were not common outside.

Lin Yueshan looked at Mishaya, Mishaya looked at Linyue Mountain and didn't speak, and kept blinking his eyes, "That's it, you are the first person to come this year, and I will let you change some more stones." "I want the stones in your box. Lin Yueshan pointed to the box that Misaya put aside, but he didn't want this female barbarian to laugh suddenly: "Then you can take them all, I still have some reluctance to these beautiful stones." Lin Yueshan knew that Misaya didn't take out the stones in the box because he knew the value and deliberately hid them, but sincerely, and immediately took out four cakes from his bag, gave them to Mishaya, reached out and took a beautiful stone and an ugly stone from in front of him, and smiled: "I want these." ”

Mishaya shook her head again and again: "This is too much, you take away all those ugly stones," Mishaya said and thought for a while, "Let you pick two more beautiful ones." After speaking, she took the cake in Lin Yueshan's hand, her eyes smiled into a crescent moon, this was the first time she had exchanged for so much food, Lin Yueshan looked at Mishaya and smiled, and stood up: "There are so many stones, I can't take them, let's put them here for you first, I still have to go to the village in front." ”

Mishaya took a bite of the cake, a small bite, only a small gap was missing in the cake, then grabbed a handful of snow and ate it, burped, and smiled, "Okay, then you must remember to pick it up, I will definitely keep it for you." Lin Yueshan smiled, put back another ugly stone in his hand, and just picked up a beautiful stone, "Then say okay, you have to wait for me, I will come to fetch it." ”

Mishaya carefully wrapped the cake and set it aside. Then he pouted his ass and dug a hole, "Go, go, I'll bury you here, and I won't move at all when you come and get it." Linyueshan looked at Mishaya's appearance, laughed, the long-lost ease even relieved Linyueshan's tension, Linyueshan and Lao Li walked out of the door, and soon left the village, Linyueshan walked and walked, suddenly turned around, looked at the still quiet small village, and said: "Northland, it seems to be a little different from the legend." ”
