Chapter 8: Orion (1)
At this time, the weather was still early, and the official road was still empty, and there were no people.
He Baoton was suspicious, and gave a look to the person behind him, and the two soldiers quietly dismounted and went deep into the grass.
Fang Ling stood on a high place, all the movement around him was under his nose, and when the two of them were about to walk down the hill, he suddenly laughed, turned around, and galloped away.
This war horse is a few fine horses in the horse training farm, and the speed is as fast as lightning, and it rushes out like this, shocking Xiao Xue instinctively hugging Fang Ling, and her chest is tightly pressed up.
He Bao was not discouraged by Fang Ling's escape, but laughed out loud: "Actually taking the small road, you really chose your own dead end, chase me!"
Fang Ling has an excellent memory, he has long kept the map of Chu in his heart, and the counties around Qingping Pass are also well understood, this mountain road is the route he determined after careful selection, not to mention the twists and turns of the road, and there are many places connected.
Fang Ling rode his horse and galloped wildly, and the fat and strong horse was like an arrow from the string, running fast.
Although Xiao Xue knew that such contact would inevitably occur, she was still angry, but she had to hug him tighter, so as not to accidentally throw him off the horse.
Just sitting on the galloping horse, the sensitive parts of his chest hit the young man's back again and again, even if it was Xiao Xue, who had a strong heart, he couldn't help but have red ears, his little teeth were crumbling, and he wanted to jump off the horse.
It's just that Fang Ling didn't have the heart to enjoy such a beautiful blessing, the road was basically going around the mountain, turning left and right, it seemed to be running around, but in fact, it was all a curve heading towards the north.
When the road became narrower and narrower, and the two horses could not go side by side at all, He Bao and the others had to slow down, so they had to adjust to let the fast horses chase ahead.
The distance between the two parties is getting farther and farther, and when passing by a mountain road and seeing a small county town in the distance, Fang Ling and Xiao Xue got off the horse, and then slapped the horse's buttocks with the horns, and the war horse galloped away in pain.
Fang Ling didn't have time to take pity on the abandoned war horse, and took Xiao Xue to the side of the mountain, heading in the northeast direction.
According to the mark on the map, the mountain that the two of them went on is called Jiukong Mountain, which is an extension of the mountain range on the side of Qingshui Pass, walking along the northeast direction of the mountain, it takes about two days to reach Zou County, and then from Zou County to the official road, it takes three days to reach Pingtan Pass.
On the way to Zou County, He Bao and the others would waste a lot of time in that county, because following the hooves of the war horses, they would definitely search in the vicinity, but they didn't know that they had already rushed to the northeast.
The mountains are as vast as the sea, and at first there are still mountain paths to be found, but the more you go up the mountain, the deeper and denser the forest becomes, and there is almost no road to find.
Fortunately, the horns of the fire pattern beast in Fang Ling's hand were extremely sharp, and it was easy to cut through thorns and thorns, and with one slash, the trees with thick bowls could be cut off without any mud and water, not to mention those small vine plants.
Walking in the northeast direction, walking down the hill and climbing up another hill, the time passed very quickly, and soon, the sun was about to set down the mountain.
