Chapter 65: Departure

Now that Ariel Ye has already made a decision, the matter has been settled. Peng Ze also followed the mark left for him a little later to the Zhao family's old house. Yue Guo has very little power left in Anting, only the last group of the big inner secret spy, half-dead to open a noodle restaurant, the boss and the cook often quarrel. In fact, the boss and the cook are both good hands, and this quarrel is just the daily pastime of two guys with different tempers and excellent relationships. In addition, in a pawnshop not far from the noodle shop, the owner is also an elite dead soldier of the Yue Kingdom. These are the only three people who can be called combat power locally, and there is a guy who pretends to be demented, and he is a messenger who is good at stealth.

After Peng Ze asked about the situation, he passed on the news that Princess Qinghe was still there through the owner of the guò noodle restaurant. As for how the information was sent back, how long it would take, and what the reaction would be after that, Peng Ze didn't need to know.

Hearing Ye Yichen say that he was going to go to the hinterland of Chu State, Peng Ze was also very appreciative, but he was also worried about the local information transmission. If news and instructions come from the Yue Kingdom, someone must be able to convey them on their behalf, right? Zhao Tiegong volunteered to solve this problem.

Since Zhao Tiegong didn't need their help, they didn't have to stay at Zhao's house for a long time, so as not to attract the attention of people with a heart, and before nightfall, they left with their group. But before leaving, Zhao Tiegong called his fourteen-year-old youngest son Zhao Hongyuan and his twenty-three-year-old nephew Zhao Yue and asked them to follow Chengbang.

Although Zhao Hongyuan is young, his cultivation foundation is very solid, and he is already in the early stage of his round body, which is not worse than Chengbang at that time. And Zhao Yue has reached the late stage of the round body, and it is very promising that he will soon hit the exciting period. Zhao Tiegong insisted on this, and the two of them were familiar with the situation near Anting, so I am afraid that they would often go back and forth as liaison officers in the future, which was very useful, and Cheng Bang did not refuse. Cheng Bang actually didn't dare to refuse, Zhao Tiegong put on the posture that their family was a vassal of the Cheng family, and their sons and nephews should naturally be the young master of the Cheng family. This kind of naturalness makes Chengbang a little unbearable.

Originally, I thought that it would be very difficult to persuade everyone to go to the hinterland of Chu after returning to the camp, but what Cheng Bang and Ye Yichen didn't expect was that everyone seemed to accept this statement lightly and skillfully, and they didn't hesitate to pack up and prepare to deal with various challenges on the journey. Cheng Bang was a little surprised, but Ye Yichen was very relieved, this was the first time she had gained the trust and loyalty of her subordinates who were completely free of impurities, not because of her identity, not because she was the princess of Qinghe, but because she took everyone all the way here and walked out of the Ten Directions Mountain alive. Of course, Ariel Ye will not really attribute this matter to herself, she knows best how much effort Chengbang has put in it, but even if it is to assist Chengbang to lead such a team, this feeling makes her very proud.

Unlike before, when they walked out from the inside of the Shifang Mountain, the problems they faced now were a little more complicated. In the past, their worst enemies were unpredictable forest roads, strange climate changes, and demon beasts that were ready to trouble them at any time, but now, the trouble has become how to get to the hinterland of Chu.

After studying the notes left by Dugu Xuan, everyone found a very interesting path: continue to walk from the mountains of the ten directions. at

Walking in the mountains, it is true that they may face all kinds of difficulties, but these are already familiar to them, and everyone is mentally prepared to know how to deal with it and whether they can cope with it. This is safer than walking on the post roads that connect the towns, they are not sure that they can retreat when they encounter the army of the Chu State, and as long as they walk on the post road, it is inevitable to encounter the Chu ** team. God knows why the army of Chu State entered Yue State this time, why it took military discipline so seriously and maintained it so well, there was almost no news of slaughtering cities or anything in various places, and there were not even many things about robbery, rape, and oppression of the people, you know, those armies of Chu State are really very, very difficult to do this, and no one may doubt the combat strength of the Chu army, just like no one will doubt their loose military discipline, which is also famous among the nations.

Through the periphery of the Ten Directions Mountain, plus a trip to re-enter the deeper areas of the Ten Directions Mountains, they could reach directly to the vicinity of Yong'an. In fact, with their current tutorial, walking this road will only take more than ten days at best, and the absolute distance is not very far, mainly the road in the deeper area of the Shifang Mountain, Dugu Xuan's predecessors have made a very detailed mark on the map, and they can directly pass through a naturally formed canyon culvert. Due to the effect of rock crystals and other things, there were almost no monsters on that stretch of the road. It's just that the mountain wind goes back and forth in the gaps between the mountains, and I'm afraid that part of the road will be very noisy. That place was originally the place that Dugu Xuan had chosen to have a duel with a master of the same era, and he named it "Thunder Gorge". However, after digging through Dugu Xuan's notes, Cheng Bang didn't find any other information about the duel, and he didn't know whether he was alive or not, nor did he know the final result.

Choosing the vicinity of Yongan as the destination, Chengbang also took a lot of thought. Yong'an is a city in the Chu State that is very close to the mountains of the Ten Directions, and its status is roughly equivalent to that of Anting. However, due to the early establishment of Anting, and the fact that various major markets related to the Shifang Mountains are here, Yong'an is far behind Anting in terms of the functions of undertaking transactions and support. When it comes to the adventures of Shifang Mountain, almost everyone will know Anting and Shifang Town, but not many people will know Yong'an. However, the Chu State itself, especially the exploration teams organized by those big guilds and families, must have come out of Yong'an. The war between Yue and Chu is together, and Anting is close to the front line, so Yong'an has become a last resort, and it will surely become more and more lively for a period of time. And the excitement has always been associated with chaos and opportunity.

From the vicinity of Anting, to Yong'an, the road is about less than a month, this is because the main line is a straight line, the distance is not far, and everyone has long been tested in the worst environment. When staying near Anting, Cheng Bang also asked Peng Ze to quietly send two truckloads of not too rare materials to the Zhao family and let them deal with them themselves. For their party, this is just a simple choice to reduce the burden, but these things may be able to play a greater role in Zhao Tiegong's hands. A batch of fresh materials is enough to show that the Zhao family has not fallen, and it is enough to make those local merchants and people who support them feel their hidden strength. As for where this force is, presumably no one can ask from Zhao Tiegong's mouth, this kind of uncertain danger hanging over his head is the most deterrent.

Their luggage is a little lighter, and their journeys are naturally faster. On the twenty-second day after coming out of Anting, he had already crossed the last steep mountain pass and entered the range of the ten mountains that could probably be regarded as the radiation of Yong'an City. It looks like it's about three to four days away from Vinh On.

After choosing a flat slope, Cheng Bang breathed a sigh of relief and announced loudly to everyone: "Okay, we will camp here today." ”

Soon, the command tent used for deliberations and looking at the map was set up first, and the map was spread out on the wide folding table, and Cheng Bang hurriedly took out his notes, and added new content to the map against his records along the way.

If someone else saw this map, they would probably take it for their own use. This map is too complete and detailed, and the various terrains are marked very clearly and clearly, as well as the descriptions of various monsters and products along the way. It is true that they did not have much time to gather and hunt all the way, and only scratched the surface of the situation, but it was not easy to do so. For adventurers, this is an opportunity to safely and easily reap large profits, and for the military, it represents a safe passage that has been explored and proven.

"Chengbang, will we stay here for a few days?" Ye Yichen also walked into the command tent after arranging the layout of the camp.

"Sister Chen, although this side is suitable for camping, the terrain is too open, and there is no dangerous terrain to garrison. Let's find out the situation first and find a better camp nearby. However, it has finally arrived, and it should not be a problem to repair here for two or three days. Cheng Bang said.

Ariel Ye leaned on Cheng Bang's side, bent down and looked at the map, watching Cheng Bang skillfully mark all kinds of information on the map. The soft silk swayed directly on Cheng Bang's face.

"Sister Chen, it's so itchy!" Cheng Bang grinned and gently bumped Ye Yichen with his shoulder, as if to push her away a little.

"Isn't that red mountain pig over there going to call and eat it?" Ariel Ye pointed his finger somewhere on the map. In addition to Cheng Bang, she was the first to learn the surveying and mapping method left by Dugu Xuan, who didn't know much about marching and fighting, but she was able to learn map mapping, which really surprised everyone. But if you think about it carefully, it is not surprising that she has received the most thoughtful education from the royal family since she was a child, and she is proficient in poetry and painting, and she is also considered to have entered the door in arithmetic, and her foundation is very good. As long as you want to learn, of course, you will soon be able to master mapping. And mastering this skill has also further increased Ariel Ye's importance in the team, reading maps, mastering the skills of combining maps with actual terrain for guidance, has become a new agenda for Her Royal Highness the princess. At that time, she will really become the core person that everyone can rely on when Cheng Bang is away. As for the princess's cultivation realm, there is also such a thing as improving, but it is not so important.

And pointing on the map and expressing all kinds of reliable or unreliable opinions is probably a very interesting daily interaction between Her Royal Highness the Princess and Cheng Bang.
