Chapter 122: Taken Away

"Lady." Zelan pulled Shen Qu to the side and carried the person, "Are we going to go to that Wuyun Mountain, where do you want to go to find His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

Shen Qu nodded yes, his attitude was very resolute.

Zelan said: "Lady, the slave and maid have never been afraid of following the lady, but now the slave and maid want to persuade the lady, you are not alone now, you still have a purple, even if it is for the sake of the child, you should protect yourself first." ”

Zelan was very nervous, looked around, and said nervously: "The people here are extremely vicious, they haven't eaten for two days, I don't know what will happen if they continue like this, there was a famine in the hometown of the slave when she was a child, and then not to mention selling children and daughters, even people cannibalism has happened, it's really terrifying." ”

Shen Qu took her hand and smiled: "I know what you're worried about, but Zelan, I can't leave him here alone, if I really leave like this and miss him, I won't have a good time in my life."

Besides, he is the hope of Daye, the backbone of Daye, but now fortunately, his identity has not been exposed, if he really has any accidents, Daye will be in chaos, where can we run, all the disasters are just a day before and day after day.

Good Zeland, you just think it's a little selfish on my part, I just want to go and see it, or I'll ......"

Zelan instantly understood, and said: "Don't talk about it, the lady still thinks clearly, it's the slave who thinks wrong, the lady says let's go, and the slave and the maid will accompany you." ”

In the evening of this day, the government finally came to distribute porridge, although it was just some vegetable porridge with clear soup and little water, it was better than having nothing to eat.

The old woman spread licorice for them at night so that they could sleep more comfortably.

This night was the most solid sleep Shen had slept in the past few days, there was no need to worry about the mountain bandits, and she also knew Li Luansong's possible whereabouts, she made up her mind, the snow stopped today, and she would go to Wuyun Mountain early tomorrow morning.

Either way, she had to know if he was dead or alive.

On the second day, when the sky was just dawning, the people in the ruined temple got up one after another.

Two days later, I ate some gruel, and everyone was awakened from hunger.

Shen Qu cleaned himself up, touched his lower abdomen again, and muttered: "My Liuzi, A-Niang really can't stand you, let you suffer these grievances, you have to be good, wait for you to give birth to A-Niang to love you even more." ”

The little child has not yet felt it in the womb, but Shen Qu seems to know that she is well, this is a child who can bring blessings, and she will definitely be fine.

Shen did take Zelan to go out, but the old woman came in from outside the door, and mysteriously stopped the two and pulled them aside:

"My son has been out looking for food these days, this is what he just delivered, you can take it with you, eat it on the way."

As he spoke, he stuffed a pancake into Shen Qu's hand, which was a pancake with chopped green onions and oil.

Shen Qu was surprised: "Where did you get such a good thing?" ”

The old woman opened her mouth, a look of embarrassment on her face, and finally thought about it and swallowed her words: "I don't know, anyway, you can bring it." ”

Shen Qu excused, "How can this work, you are not in good health, stay and eat by yourself." ”

The old woman said no, "I have been lying here all day, I don't need my strength and I can't go hungry, maybe the government will send you food in a while, you should take it, but you must come back safely." ”

After speaking, he looked at the sky again: "It won't snow today, you should be careful, it will get dark early at night here, don't be too late." ”

It would be hypocritical to excuse himself at this time, Shen did hurriedly thank the old woman, and pulled Zelan to hurry away.

The old woman stood looking at their backs for a long time, what she couldn't say was that the pancake was robbed by her son.

After doing such a thing that hurts the heavens and destroys the conscience, it must be done to make up for it, the old woman thought to herself, and I hope that I will see them return safely in the evening.

That Wuyun Mountain is located in the southeast of Fengyi County, the mountains are covered with snow, originally thought to be a not very high mountain, but at the foot of the mountain only found that this Wuyun Mountain is not only high, but also very steep, as if there is no path to climb, raise your head and can't see the top of the mountain, can only see the gray-white clouds on the mountainside.

No wonder it is called Wuyun Mountain, it really looks like a dark cloud with a spell.

Shen really thought, wrapped the coarse cotton jacket on her body tightly, and tied the belt around her waist tightly, this patched short cotton coat was easy for her to get.

When I was young, I went out with my father, although I didn't encounter such a dangerous situation, but I also suffered hardships, which was nothing to Shen Cheng.

It's been a good time in the past few years, and it's rare to have such a predicament, which can be regarded as a rare experience.

"Zeelan, follow me." Shen Qu told her, "Step on your feet, hold your hands steady, it doesn't matter if you are slow." ”

"Don't worry, lady, Zeelan Pi is real."

The master and servant began to climb the mountain.

It was icy and snowy, and there was no shadow to be seen, and only the whirring wind could be heard in my ears.

The mountain is not very steep, the slope-like mountain path is full of gravel and dead grass, but the ice and snow are too slippery, and the two climb very slowly.

Walking to a flat place, the two sat down to rest, and Shen did observe the terrain.

If the Shuo army was fighting with the mountain bandits, it must not be a very steep slope, and she looked around and saw a large clearing not far away, where the trees were relatively dense and the terrain was flat.

"It should be there." Shen Cheng gasped, "Turn around this halfway up the mountainside and you'll be there." ”

Zelan sat on the boulder and fanned himself with his hand, and quipped: "Who would have thought that such a cold weather could make a sweat, and it is quite comfortable, it is better than freezing to death in that broken temple." ”

"It's just a pity that the dry food we brought yesterday, how good the rice crackers and cakes were, were ruined by them like that."

Zeeland was still haunted by the thrilling scene of yesterday.

Shen Qu smiled and said: "You girl, you have a heart-eating eye, you are hungry, I am hungry too, let's take out the oil cake given by the eldest mother and eat it." ”

Zelan was overjoyed and nodded busily, already singing about the empty city plan in his stomach.

The oil cake was cold and a little hard from the cold, and the oil was not delicious to eat, but the two of them still ate it with relish.

After resting and eating bread, I had the strength to continue climbing.

About two more incense sticks had passed, and the sight before them frightened the two of them.

Although it was covered in snow, you could still see mountains of corpses piled up under the white expanse, those armor, weapons, and broken limbs, which was shocking.

"Lady."

Zeeland was frightened.

Shen did say that it was okay, "Don't be afraid, they are all heroes, soldiers who sacrificed for peace, you won't be afraid if you think about it like this." ”

The scene in front of him reminded Shen Qu of the soldiers who had been rescued from the battlefield with Daddy, and under the bones of such a mountain of corpses, they used their hands one by one to find people who still had a trace of breath.

When she was eight years old, she witnessed the cruelty of war for the first time, and the rescue of the wounded from the battlefield was the Shuofang Army, which was led by Li Luansong.

Now, she's here again, only, this time, to find him.

"Your Highness, Li Luansong."

Shen Qu shouted, a faint voice echoing through the valley, becoming more and more empty and quiet.

The two of them opened the corpses one by one, looking at the armor, the weapons, and the ornaments on their bodies, Shen did brush away the snow on their faces, and some of them were already blurred, so look at the hands, look at the neck, and look at the limbs......

Li Luansong's appearance has long been engraved in her mind, it is a body she is very familiar with, every callus, every scar, every inch of skin and hair, has been with her every day.

Thinking of the past, Shen did wipe away the tears on his face.

He had blocked a knife for her, and the wound was in the left abdomen; I was injured a while ago, and the scar on my lower abdomen had just scabbed; And that time they stabbed each other with their swords, and the scar on his left chest could never be removed......

Li Luansong, you must live.

Shen Cheng thought silently in his heart, his body tirelessly searched for it but prayed silently in his heart, I hope he is not here, it means that he is still alive......

After the afternoon, the sun loses its brilliance, the sky darkens, and in the afternoon the snow flakes fall again.

Zeeland pulled her away: "Lady, we will come back tomorrow, you need to rest." ”

Shen Qu straightened his waist at this time, and looked around, only a small area had been moved this day, and there was still a large area.

Before dark, the two rushed back to the broken temple, just in time for the official mansion to eat at dusk, today it turned out to be pimple soup, the thumb-sized gnocchi was enough to inspire, so that everyone flocked to it.

The old woman looked at the two of them in a depressed and depressed manner, and without saying much, she moved the place and gave them the fire:

"Let's bake and eat some hot soup to warm up."

Shen was silent, bowing his head and drinking the soup.

"It must be someone who is very important to the little lady, so that he can go to find it without regard for his life. I was as persistent as you back then, the child's father died on the battlefield, I had to go and take his body home, I was still pregnant with the child, tired for a few days and almost injured the child, but fortunately, God has eyes, so I didn't work in vain. ”

Shen Qu glanced at the old woman: "Is the child okay?" ”

The old woman smiled: "No, his father bless him, it's good, he has already grown into a young man like a calf, and he also went to join the army, and he also made war exploits." If it weren't for this disaster year and mountain bandits, I'm afraid I would have been able to become a big official, but it's a pity that I ...... now."

As if talking about something sad, the old woman wept, and Shen Qu didn't ask any more, silently accompanying the old man to roast the fire.

The snow fell for a few days in a row before it was completely cleared, and Shen did go out early and return late every day, and he searched for more than ten days, but he still had no clue.

She and Zelan had searched almost everywhere they could, just like in that dream, there was no Li Luansong, not even a single thing from him.

Does this mean that he is safe and sound, Shen really thought, maybe it is good news.

"If there is no result today, let's go back and leave Fengyi tomorrow." Shen did look at the long-lost warm sun, "He must not be dead." ”

It was the last day, and they had returned a little late, and it was already completely dark, and the two of them walked hand in hand on the cold and desolate mountain path, and occasionally heard the cries of wild beasts and crows, which was terrifying.

"Lady, I'm afraid." Zeeland shuddered.

"Don't be afraid, there's nothing here, only the souls of heroes."

But before the words fell, the two heard a gust of wind behind them, and they didn't dare to turn back, so the two of them held hands and ran away.

"Lady, do you hear me, what is it?"

Shen did say that he heard it, "Don't care what it is, run quickly." ”

But the two of them were tired for several days, and they were physically exhausted, and they couldn't run fast at all, and the black shadow behind them suddenly appeared in front of them, a tall and strong man, veiled, and his eyes showed a fierce light.
