Chapter 711: Strange News of the Eastern Kingdoms
Far Mountains.
Li Ping'an sat on the side of the road, took a sip of wine gourd.
Now I don't know where to go.
There is no sign on the side of the road, let alone anyone.
So he found a random path and walked forward.
Thinking that if you go far, you will definitely be able to see people.
When you walk at night, you can hear the sounds of all kinds of insects.
From time to time, the cat would go into the grass to catch one and let it go.
So he went to catch other insects.
Suddenly, there was a panicked footsteps in the grass.
The cat hurried back.
There was a long black worm on her paw, and it bit into her paw.
The cat can't shake it off, and it's so anxious.
Li Ping'an flicked his fingers.
The worm fell into the earth and vanished.
It's also a refined thing.
The cat looked at the injured hand and looked up.
Holding back the tears, "The fairy won't be poisoned, right?" ”
"Probably not."
"And what if it will?"
The old cow came over and said, "Ah!! ”
A mouthful of spit on the palm of his hand, and then wiped the cat's injured paws.
All right.
The cat looked up and looked at it in shock.
.........
After a night of rain, the sky finally cleared.
On the muddy road, someone came with a horse.
"Drive, drive!!"
Pegasus galloped, and all four hooves fell to the ground.
The mud splashes were like exploding water.
When a person, a cow and a cat heard the sound, they all deliberately moved to the side.
But I still can't avoid being splashed on my body by this mud idea.
"Drive, drive!"
Before he could take a few more steps, someone flew by.
Everyone looked like they were in a hurry.
Li Ping'an wanted to stop them and ask for directions, but it seemed that he couldn't.
Further on, I saw a huge procession approaching this way.
Holding a large flag, at the front is a soldier on horseback, who looks presentable.
Seeing Li Ping'an, he couldn't help but say something, so he dragged them into the team.
Looking at this posture, it is probably going to the battlefield.
Li Ping'an had heard of wars and marches, and generally met ordinary people.
Even if you don't say a word, you will be coerced into it.
The first is to keep it confidential and prevent information leakage.
Second, it can also replenish the combatants.
The old cow was pulled away and entrusted with supplies.
"Moo~"
The cat hid in Li Ping'an's arms and was not found for the time being.
Li Ping'an didn't resist and followed them.
In the team, there are many people who are like Li Ping'an who are being coerced halfway.
"Where are we going?" Li Ping'an asked an old man with a more kind face.
"I can't see it, we're going to Lord Yama!" The old man said angrily.
"Isn't it a war?"
"Isn't fighting a war like defecting to Lord Yama!!"
"Who is this fighting against?"
"With the rebels, with whom."
The old man glanced at Li Ping'an, "Not a local?" ”
"It's not."
The old man sighed, and his heart was also a bitter man.
It is estimated that he came to look for his relatives, but his relatives were not found, and I am afraid that I don't know if I can go back alive.
"The old man asked you about something."
Li Ping'an said as he carried the baggage, so that the old man could be lighter.
"What's the matter?"
"How do I get along the eastern seaboard?"
"Just keep going east."
"I kept going east, but I couldn't find a way, and some had to go over mountains and mountains, and there was no way closer."
The old man said, "Then you really asked the right person." ”
"What to say."
"Let's go east now, and there are rebels in several counties bordering the sea to the east."
Li Ping'an suddenly realized that it was really a coincidence.
The next few days.
Li Ping'an found that in fact, following the army could save a lot of effort.
First, there is no need to worry about taking a fork in the road.
Second, the province met the ringing horses, and the bandits robbed the road, which was very troublesome.
Third, the army is in charge of eating and drinking.
Although the taste is very average, it can be filled.
Occasionally sneak some prey, but also can eat meat.
You can also ask some soldiers or captured coolies for details of the local area.
And so it goes.
On this day, when he set up camp and rested.
The cat came out of the wilderness and dragged a rabbit bigger than her.
A few people who shared a tent with Li Ping'an were amazed, and praised Li Ping'an's cat vigorously.
These days, I have relied on this kitten.
Let them fight the tooth sacrifice.
If the rabbit is roasted, one person will not get much meat.
But if it is a pot of soup with weeds and mushrooms on the grass.
Divide the mince into small pieces and place in the soup.
When the bubble is soft, eat it in one bite.
That's what it's called incense, and everyone can eat more.
Coupled with Li Ping'an's cooking skills.
Eating a meal can make people linger for a long time.
So after a long time, the brothers in the surrounding camps knew that he cooked deliciously.
They all took food and shouted for a partner.
Li Ping'an asked them something about the eastern coastal countries.
"There are too many of them in the eastern countries."
"But there are many strange things, my third uncle's cousin's cousin's eldest nephew followed the merchant ship to the sea at that time.
When I came back, I said something wicked.
It is said that there are islands in the sea, and there are all beautiful women on it, and there is not a single man.
In some countries, people say they have three heads! ”
"I've heard of this!"
"There are also people who have long arms, and their arms can naturally hang down to the ground........."
Speaking of these gossips, everyone was very interested.
Li Ping'an listened carefully without the slightest impatience.
At night, it rained outside the tent.
Li Ping'an lay in the tent, looking at the rain outside.
The cat lay quietly beside him and stretched.
He rolled over and fell asleep again.
"Bang Bang!!"
Outside, the quartermaster was whipping the animals and telling them to hurry up and move their things to the place.
The old cow glanced back hatefully.
Attaboy! I remember you!
Turning back will make you run a loose stomach!
Li Ping'an was wearing a coat and was looking at an ancient book.
There is also a cup of tea brewing next to it.
The cat also looked at a villain book, covering her mouth and snickering from time to time.
Fear of being found out by others reading books.
At this time, a child named Ma Yuan came over, "Big brother, can you teach me to read?" ”
Ma Yuan is different from them.
Ma Yuan took the initiative to join the army, at the age of fifteen.
Say it's not big, it's not small.
"Yes."
Li Ping'an took a sip of tea and agreed.
"Big brother, why do you carry so many books with you? Are you a reader? ”
"Half of it."
"That's pretty good."
"It's not that great, what do you want to learn to read?"
"If you recognize the words, you can get a higher position in the army."
"What else?"
"I can have a big house, marry a daughter-in-law, and let my mother live a good life."
"What else?"
Ma Yuan pondered for a moment, "Defend the family and the country." ”
"What else?"
“....... Let the common people live a good life. ”
Li Ping'an showed a smile on his face.
After flipping through for a long time, I pulled out a military book.
"Come on."
