I didn't expect that the people would live so hard!" Ji Xuewei suddenly said, this time I went to a lot of villages, and many people did not have enough to eat, and they were on the verge of starvation and semi-starvation, and they had a very hard time.

"My sister rarely travels to the rivers and lakes, in fact, the people have always had a hard time!"

Hua Wuying said.

"The people at the bottom want to get ahead, there are only two ways, one is to study and become a civil official, and the other is to practice martial arts and become a martial artist. The prince will have a kind of call, and the strong are respected!"

It's just that whether it is reading or practicing martial arts, it depends on qualifications and understanding.

The road of civil and military affairs seems to have different choices, but in fact, the final attribution is the same.

A strong martial artist must continue to read, if he is illiterate, he can't even recognize the exercises, and naturally he can't go further. The more advanced the exercises, the more difficult it is to understand, and the more cultural background is required. Reading a lot can improve the understanding of martial artists, which is a recognized principle in the martial arts world.

Similarly, people who read books do not seem to practice martial arts in the early stage, but they can continue to read, and they often have outstanding spiritual understanding.

Many scholars do not practice martial arts before the age of twenty, but mainly study to improve their understanding, and then practice martial arts after the age of twenty, soaring to the sky, and cultivating to become powerful and terrifying.

"Actually, it's the same everywhere, the people are all leeks, and they are all harvested...... It's just that there are leeks, and there is hope, and there is no hope for leeks!" Li Mu said.

It's like in the previous life, many people wanted to immigrate to the United States, but after immigrating, they realized that they were actually the same, China was unfair and had various problems, and the United States was also unfair and had various problems. Many immigrants go out, and they regret it to death.

This epidemic is even more of a slap in the face.

There are also not enough ventilators, and the West is the first to use them for young people, and the old people give up treatment; but in China, it must be the old people who use them first, and the young people are strong and can withstand it, and there is the virtue of respecting the old and loving the young.

Li Mu continued: "In fact, people live, a little hard, a little tired, and nothing, they are afraid that there is no hope, they can't see the future, day after day, keep repeating, and live a hopeless life!"

Ji Xuewei was about to say something.

Suddenly I smelled blood.

Hua Wuying also has a bad feeling.

The three of them immediately urged their horses forward, but they saw a corpse lying on the ground.

Walking forward again, I saw a corpse again.

The horse saw a village in front of him, and he saw a corpse, all of which fell to the ground, and the death was very miserable, and the scene was a little scary.

A village was slaughtered.

More than 1,000 people were slaughtered one after another.

These villagers were all armed with weapons, and after a terrible fight, they were killed.

"What happened, who did it?" Ji Xuewei said, her voice trembling.

"You see, this wound is caused by a mace, and this is a wound caused by a scimitar, and here is a wound left by a wolf's tooth arrow!"

Analyzing the wounds of the deceased, Li Mu commented.

"It was done by the steppe people, and it was done by the Yuantu knights...... Here a group of Yuan Tu cavalry appeared here, slaughtering this village, snatching food, gold, silver, cloth, etc., and robbing the women here!" Li Mu said suddenly.

"Most of the villagers were slaughtered, but most of them were men and very few women. ”

Ji Xuewei asked, "Why didn't they kill the woman?"

Hua Wuying was speechless, she didn't expect this sister to ask such a cute and stupid question.

Do not eat minced meat.

Li Mu took a deep breath and explained: "Because women can give birth to offspring. A population that does not fall behind depends on the number of women. Snatching away a large number of women means that in ten or twenty years, the tribe will have a large population. ”

"According to the rules of the grassland, when two tribes are at war together, the victorious tribe will kill all the men of the defeated tribe, as long as they are higher than the wheels. As for the women, there are children below the wheel who will stay. Women, they can have offspring. As for the children who are lower than the wheels, they will not hold grudges when they are young!"

"We may take in some slaves, and we will also recruit some vassal tribes, but only if we can digest them!"

Ji Xuewei said: "Border pass, isn't it guarded by a large army, how can the grassland cavalry be killed!"

Li Mu said: "The defense line is too long, there are always loopholes, and it is normal for the grassland cavalry to rush in...... Every year, the steppe cavalry assaulted in and constantly hit the grass valley. ”

Li Mu inspected the body, the body was still warm, and the time of death was not long.

"It's not more than two hours before the time of death, and those steppe cavalry haven't been away for a long time......" Li Mu stepped forward to check, and sure enough, he saw the traces of the horse's hooves, "Let's go, let's follow the horse's hoof mark to chase and kill, maybe we can destroy this cavalry!"

"Good!"

Saying that, Ji Xuewei was also gearing up.

The three of them followed the traces and searched away, but when they reached twenty miles, the traces of horses' hooves on the ground disappeared.

"Why did it disappear!"

"Because there's a big broom tied to the back of the horse, erase the traces!" Li Mu said, "Where will you run?"

It is somewhat similar to the north, a little similar to the west, and it is also possible to look at the east...... It's very likely, but where it will be.

Li Mu was confused, confused, and dazed.

Where is the road?

Some nostalgia, maid Sun Mengxi.

This maid is the best assistant, following the clues, and being able to find the truth of the matter, the best. Without her, many problems are difficult to handle.

"Bring me the map!"

Li Mu said.

Hua Wuying immediately took down a map from the horse, about two meters long and about one meter wide, spread it on the ground, and immediately appeared a topographic map of Youzhou.

There are exotic golden eagles, which can fly high in the air and carry out drawing operations.

The map has precise data, depicting valleys, rivers, lakes, meadows, checkpoints, etc., just like a satellite map.

"The west, going directly to the steppe, is also the closest route. In the east, there are some detours, but it is also possible; as for the north, it seems that there are mountains blocking it, and there are dangerous checkpoints to kill the tiger's mouth, which seems to be the most unlikely, but there is still a little possibility......"

"Three roads, three choices, do you think the Yuan Tu cavalry will go in that direction!"

Looking at the map, Li Mu was also confused and a little undecided.

"The three of us are to make three choices, look for them in three directions, and whoever finds it first will send out an arrow notification!" Ji Xuewei said a stupid way

"It's good, it's a good idea!"

Li Mu said: "I choose the north!"

Ji Xuewei said: "I choose the West"

Hua Wuying said: "I choose the East!"

Li Mu said: "You have to be careful and pay attention to safety. Notify me as soon as you see something is wrong. Don't be pushy. ”

Ji Xuewei said: "Don't worry, we are not vases. ”

As he spoke, the three of them separated for the first time and followed different paths, looking for them.
