Chapter Twenty-Three: Old Forest Logging
On the mountain, more than 2,000 meters by the sea, a dense primeval forest appears in front of you.
In winter, the primeval forest is covered with snow, the pine stands upright, the branches and branches of the big forest look like a thick layer of snowflakes hanging from afar, and the jade is clear and clear under the sunshine, exquisitely clear.
The convoy stayed on the edge of the forest, deep in the mountains and old forests, with ancient trees towering to the sky, covering the sky and the sun. No one dares to rush in, but fortunately there is wood at the edge of the forest, pine and spruce towering into the sky, and no one has come to destroy the vegetation here, so that the primeval forest retains its mystery and danger, and the big trees and rattans inside are intertwined with each other, as if covered with layers of large nets, such as the dark green seabed, and a trace of sunlight cannot penetrate it.
The ten-captain Bileg ordered his men to unload the logging tools, and then walked to Ou Xuzi's side and said, "Master Ou, it's getting late today, and the forest situation is unknown, so I see if I'm working tomorrow." ”
Ou Xuzi nodded and said: "Our soldiers are divided into two routes, one is led by me to stay here to cut wood, and all the way to the unfrozen spring with Brother Renci to get ice water. ”
Renci shook his head and said: "The place I went to is high and dangerous, and few people go up, no problem, but you are here, there are bandits in Sun Moon Mountain, they are all outlaws, robbing and killing, doing all kinds of evil, Brother Ou, you have to be careful." ”
Ou Xuzi smiled and said, "What can they rob? We are not a caravan, all we have in our hands are axes and steel knives, but you are carrying a big jar, and what is in it, they know there." ”
Bileg was a little reluctant, he was reluctant to go to the dangerous place, and hesitantly said to Ou Xuzi: "Master Ou, Master Tusi asked me to protect you, and I can't leave you an inch. ”
Ou Xuzi replied impatiently: "You are the commander of the ten, the commander of the army, you should understand the heavy responsibility you are carrying, and there is nothing to talk about. ”
Bileg's face turned red, and he was about to argue, when the official family of Chi Na said: "Master Ou has the final say here, even I have to listen to him, we can't stay here for a long time, and we can fight quickly, you know." ”
Bileg did not dare to offend the official family and left.
The housekeeper did not embarrass Ou Xuzi along the way, on the contrary, he was polite, he knew in his heart that Ou Xuzi was a character, and the sword would definitely be cast, and he understood the ghost eyes of Bala Toast clearly, and the sword was dedicated to the imperial court, and the emperor was born as a military general, and he loved beauty and loved the blade more, and he had sent people to look for famous swords and knives everywhere, what fish intestine sword, cadre sword, Mo evil sword, seven-star Longzhou sword, etc., but there was not even a shadow.
In the past, Chi Na has always thought that the famous blades are just legends, blowing them too godly, seeing the Zhan Lu knife to know that he is the frog at the bottom of the well, too little knowledge, the Zhan Lu knife is extremely powerful, killing and invisible, the radiant knife momentum is like thunder, it can really be used to control the knife, to the intention of the sword, flying to the sky, the power is endless. A knife pointed, the mountain collapsed and the ground cracked, and the river flowed backwards. Such a sharp weapon naturally became the treasure of the samurai.
The sword is priceless, the master who casts the treasure knife is simply unavoidable, the appearance of Ou Xuzi, Bala Tusi thinks that it is the best gift given to him by God, and he really casts a famous weapon, the emperor is happy, promoted to the knight, the brocade fox Qiu, the glory of the ancestors, he Chi Na also followed the chicken dog to ascend to heaven.
So Chi Na was respectful to Ou Xuzi.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Renci and Bilege left the team with more than a dozen soldiers to look for an unfrozen spring on the mountain, and said goodbye to Ou Xuzi, who said to Renci: "Brother Renci, the mountains are not peaceful, you have to be more careful." ”
Renci nodded and returned: "Don't worry, although the bandits are very cruel, they still have some scruples in the face of the real Yuan soldiers, isn't there such a saying on the grassland, friends come with good wine, jackals come with knives and guns." ”
Ou Xuzi was still not at ease, and said: "This ten-master Bileg has bad intentions, he is afraid of me but not afraid of you, this person is not good, you must be careful." ”
Renji agreed, looking at their distant figures, Ou Xuzi was a little panicked.
The huge primeval forest looks eerie and mysterious, and the locals say that few people dare to enter it, and even those who enter it never come out. It is isolated from the outside world, and it is separated by forests and swamps. In front of me, there was a narrow old walkway, twisting and turning, and the wind swayed on the top of the high trees, making a huge and slow rustling sound.
A dozen or so soldiers and rude-language craftsmen hovered at the edge of the forest, and no one dared to go inside, and when the snow foam and ice chips that blew down from the wind touched their skin, they would stir up small goosebumps. In addition, there are few bushes in the forest, and it is full of towering thousand-year-old trees. The branches of the trees are intertwined, and the lush foliage is covered with snow and ice. Like a white cloud, the blue sky is tightly obscured.
There is also the terrible silence, so quiet that it is as if all qiē are sleeping in the fear of death, and occasionally there are a few creepy cries that make people shudder.
The power of nature is terrifying.
