Chapter 224: Ghost Strikes the Wall

After rounding the huge rock, the beech grove stretched endlessly, forming a whole sea of green. Schukin had observed from the air that this forest was about three to five hectares long, and there were probably thousands of zelkova trees in it, but there was absolutely no lake to hide. But as soon as he came in with a large group of people, Qi Lang immediately found that his previous judgments were completely wrong.

That's probably the effect of the so-called Feng Shui array. Thick tree trunks and low shrubs shade each other, and occasionally a few boulders appear just enough to block the view, so that you can't see too far. The scenery in front of me seems to be repeated, because no matter which direction you go, the combination of trees and boulders is the same.

Since entering this feng shui array, Qingguo has been frowning, pinching his fingers, his expression is solemn, as if he is measuring something, almost every time he walks dozens of meters, he will make Ao Wu stop for a while and look around, for fear that he will accidentally go in the wrong direction.

Although he didn't know much about Qingguo's professional level, Qi Lang still gave her full trust, and of course, he had no other choice other than that. No one could understand this so-called suspicious array, and even the clever Jira had never set foot in such a difficult and difficult field of science. However, there is one point that Qi Lang is a little puzzled, because so far, Qingguo has almost given more than a hundred left turn instructions, but the expected right turn has never appeared, and people with a little common sense will judge that it is going in circles at this time.

In this way, after a slow march for an hour and a half, most of the soldiers managed to enter a state of dizziness, needless to mention the two self-righteous little guys of Atsa and Awan, and even the always hard-working Parry showed some negative attitudes, but Qingguo's left turn command was inevitably passed over: "Turn left fifteen meters ahead, and then at the next boulder, continue to turn left......"

"Hey, let's stop, mom. Gulf shouted, holding his forehead and walking over to Qingguo, "Little Jira is probably going to need to be fed, and we should finish dinner before leaving." Everybody's starving, and I'm guessing so are you. ”

Qingguo patted Ou Wu on the back, motioned for him to let himself down first, nodded to Gulf a little apologetically, and then turned back to Qi Lang and said, "Qingguo is incompetent, so everyone is tired." For now, we might as well rest here for the night, and let me take a closer look at it and see if there is anything else we can do. ”

Although Qi Lang didn't quite understand, looking at Qingguo's pale face, he could guess that it was definitely not an easy job, so he comforted him: "It's okay." I guess we're getting closer to our destination, aren't we?"

However, Qingguo rubbed her temples, lowered her head and slowly paced, and even hung Parry who came up with the child in her arms.

Gulf snatched the hamburger that Joanna handed to Qi Lang on the side, took a bite in a hurry, and whispered mysteriously: "I have heard that women generally have children and their brains will become stupid, do you think Qingguo is too consumed, and now the brain is not very clear?"

Before Qi Lang could answer, Joanna preemptively returned Gulf's eyes: "Don't worry, she hasn't drunk any liquor, and her brain must be clearer than you." ”

Gulf pursed his lips, knowing that it was Joanna who was avenging Lucy's grievances, and that no matter how much he talked, he would only be bored, so he had to step aside and enjoy dinner on his own. Since falling out with Lucy, now that great love saint has a bad reputation in the circle of female soldiers, and he looks lonely all day long, Qi Lang feels strange and pitiful when he sees it.

"Jojo, did you say that Lucy would not forgive Gulf again?" Qi Lang remembered the request that his good brother had made earlier, and took advantage of this moment to find out from Joanna first.

Joanna's eyes showed a slight smile, but her tone was still full of disdain: "That's him damned." Whoever made him do that kind of thing, it's a shame for you to have such a friend. ”

"Come on. Qi Lang felt that Joanna had said too seriously, "That's a complete misunderstanding, you know, he can't drink enough, and he gets drunk after a drink......"

"Stop using this lame excuse to fool people, he's just a bastard guy. Joanna categorically put Gulf on the coffin, "Who can't see that he thinks Lucy is Lieutenant Maggie!"

Joanna's voice was slightly higher, and although Gulf was sitting a dozen meters away, Maggie's name still seemed to be in his ears. He raised his head and looked this way, his expression was gloomy, and he really looked a little like an infatuated man with unrequited love.

Speaking of Lieutenant Meggie, Qi Lang's mood also became heavy. About a month ago, Schukin's industrious messenger had brought back a personal letter from King Henry, in which he mentioned that the war was still in a stalemate and that the area north of Meisburg was still under the control of the Spiral Army. But...... Maggie was injured.

Maggie was allegedly ambushed by Absion during an operation and almost lost her life on the battlefield, but Quill rushed forward in time to save her. Now that Maggie has been sent back to Shaqi Town, she will need to recuperate for at least half a year before she can fully recover. You must know that the medical skills of the military doctor Aiden are among the best in the whole army, and if this requires half a year of recuperation, it will definitely not be a small injury.

But the elder Henry also revealed good news. Captain Dodim gained the upper hand, and he was promoted to Major Commander, nominally Lieutenant Colonel William's deputy, but in practice all twenty-eight regiments of the Rotary Front Army were under his command. Although Felix was also promoted to a lieutenant in the ranks, on the whole, such personnel adjustments were extremely favorable, and Abcion's dragon army had not been able to achieve new results during this period, mostly due to the achievements of the capable Dodim.

Recall that when the Legion of Hope embarked on this expedition, King Henry had suggested that the empire might be in crisis within two or three years, and now a full year has passed, and there are no bad signs of development, but on the contrary, apart from the inevitable casualties that worried the expeditionary force, the situation on the Luhmann side is very good. Qi Lang really hoped that Old Henry's remarks were too much to worry about, if the rear maintained such a stable situation, then those young men would not have to worry about their relatives in Xia Qi Town, and they could let go of their hands and feet and make a big deal here.

Qi Lang was thinking about it here, but the mother of the child, who was also distracted, seemed to be relieved.

"I found out!" Qingguo walked back, and the smile resurfaced on her slightly swarthy face, "This should be the ghost wall, we should go this way!"

"Good thing you figured it out. Gulf stretched lazily, "I thought we would be repeating the command to turn left for the rest of our lives, like that big stupid dog in Owu, trying to fight with his own tail, but never being able to catch that cunning thing." ”

Qingguo took little Jira from Parry's hand, and while touching the little guy's face affectionately, he replied with a faint smile: "Speaking of Leo, I really need his help." ”

She communicated with Ao Wu again, and in the blink of an eye, the scuba mastiff came out of nowhere, lowered its head and sniffed around, then raised its head and shouted loudly twice.

"He advised us to go to the left. At the rock in front of him, he smelled a special smell, the smell of water. Owu's tone was unusually affirmative.

Gulf went limp again, and shouted in a bit of frustration: "You're colluding! You're deliberately playing tricks, I'm fed up with going left, I'm fucking fed up!"

Qingguo laughed: "Dear Gurf, sometimes life is like this, repeat and repeat until we find the final way out. ”

Qi Lang walked up with a smile, stretched out his hand and pulled up Gulf who was playing on the ground: "Come on, hold on a little longer, victory is just around the corner." He raised his voice again and gave an order to all the Hope Legion: "Soldiers, I have a hunch that the circle is about to come to an end, and all we need is to go on firmly! Now, please drive away your doubts and laziness, tidy up your equipment, and turn left!"

So, with full spirit, the Hope Legion is back on the road. Turn left, around the mossy boulders, then turn left again, through the low coral trees, and turn left again......

This time, the warriors' steps became unusually brisk, and although there may be hundreds of circles waiting ahead, they no longer felt that it was a never-ending idle busy, and they began to believe that their destination would eventually be reached. Although the scenery was repeated over and over again, they could already see the difference - it was a change brought about by a different mentality.

The path led by Qingguo and Leo may not be the shortest shortcut, but after a thousand repetitions, the destination will also appear in front of you. It was like a test of patience, a path that can only be passed with perseverance.

Night falls. The bored night owl stood on the branch, making a strange cooing sound, as if deliberately trying to scare away the group of guests from afar. However, the sound of the battle song rang out, and all the ill-intentioned ghost cries in the beech woods were dispelled.

"Bidding farewell to his hometown and stepping on the battlefield, the Xuanfeng Army is a fearless commander of fate! The sword has been polished, the flag is fluttering, and the firm belief guides the direction of victory. The blood of pride flows in laughter, and the enthusiasm that rises blooms in battle! No matter how high the Holy Son Peak is, it cannot stop the soldiers from ......."

"The song is not loud enough, repeat it again!"

"Wow!"
