203 Encountered resistance; all the four elders dispatched
On the second day after setting off from Yuqiu, Su Wen and his party of six entered the Yuhuan Mountains. This kind of mountain range is surrounded by mountains and looks like a jade ring, hence its name. Therefore, the distance between the mountains is too small, making it impossible to pass through the mountains.
To travel between the mountains, you can only go around the mountain, and it will be even more time-consuming to get there.
The Yuhuan Mountain Range is the only way to enter Shangyu City, the imperial capital of Ximo. It is also the most important military fortress in Ximo. The mountains surround it to form a natural barrier, and a city wall is built on the mountainside. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition,
There is only one official road accessible, and it is the strongest fortress of Simo border defense.
In the early years, when Ximo's army repeatedly invaded the Holy Dynasty's westward border, the Holy Dynasty's army counterattacked and killed them. Each time, they suffered heavy losses in the Yuhuan Mountains and were unable to move forward. Therefore, Emperor Yanxi was eager to negotiate peace with Ximo, which had great consequences.
Part of the reason is that it is impossible to break through the natural dangers of the Yuhuan Mountains. Although the Holy Dynasty's western frontier defenders are effective, Ximo's army has been unable to break through the Xucheng defenses after years of intrusion. However, being constantly disturbed is too much military power. And Ximo
, after several years of being unable to break through the defenses of Xu City, they could only agree to negotiate peace. After all, the Holy Dynasty is the strongest among the five countries today, both in military and national strength.
Mo Ming had already prepared the documents for customs clearance. Su Wen and his party entered the Yuhuan Mountains smoothly. The Yuhuan Mountains are only three hundred miles in radius, but the official road is built around the mountain and winds around. This circle is much closer than the actual distance.
It's more than doubled. The entire mountain trail in the Yuhuan Mountains is five hundred miles long. It goes around the mountain and it's very slow to walk.
By the evening of the third day, Su Wen and his party had walked less than one-fifth of the distance. The mountain road was difficult to travel and it was an official road. There were no inns or villages along the way, so they had to stay overnight in the mountains and eat dry food.
Chewing on the hard flatbread and dried meat, Phantom looked impatient, "Why can't we go hunting for game?" He mumbled and could only whisper to the flatbread in his hand, because the order not to hunt game was
From Xia Qingcang.
Su Wen and others ate their own dry food and ignored him.
He reluctantly took a bite of the big cake and said, "Hey, compared to this, I would rather eat the red pepper from the mountain. Although it is spicy to death, it still tastes good." As he said this, he chewed the food reluctantly.
of pie!
After hearing this, Su Wen slowly shook his head, his eyes full of helplessness, but also a little indulgent. How could she not know that the Phantom just opened his mouth and refused to be lonely, and he was too tired and bored after traveling for the past two days, and he just wanted to talk about it.
Just grumbling to satisfy my appetite. Although this big biscuit and jerky is not delicious, in the Shuramen back then, they had never eaten anything that was difficult to swallow! What’s more, he always loves beauties and does not pay attention to the appetite.
.
"Oh! It tastes really bad!" Phantom continued to complain while nibbling on the pie, "Su Wen, why don't you just give me a pill to reward us for not starving to death for ten days!"
"I haven't researched this kind of pill yet." Seeing that he was really bored, Su Wen spoke to Xiang and answered this sentence calmly.
"Huh?!" After receiving the response, Phantom became even more enthusiastic, "Then you should study it quickly!"
"We'll talk about it later when I'm free." Su Wen was perfunctory, which was obvious.
"When you are free, I will be so disgusted by this big cake and jerky!" With his face full of grievances, Phantom looked pitiful.
Su Wen smiled lightly and stopped answering.
The other people all knew Phantom's temperament and were not interested in playing tricks with him. They all ate their food in silence and did not answer the conversation.
It became quiet again, and the Phantom felt deeply bored. He curled his lips and stopped talking. He only gnawed the big cake in his hand, chewing hard to vent his dissatisfaction!
After eating the dry food and taking a short rest, it was just after nightfall. Su Wen proposed to continue driving for a while and rest at Haishi. But Xia Qingcang disagreed, saying that they had been driving for two consecutive days and the mountain road was difficult to walk.
I need to take a good rest tonight, rest here, and leave again tomorrow.
Seeing that everyone looked tired, Su Wen agreed.
So everyone found a good spot in the woods and climbed up a tree to rest.
The cool night is quiet, and the temperature in the mountains is extremely low. But the six of them, except Xia Qingcang, Su Wen, Mo Xuan, and Li Zhu, have magical powers. Even Phantom and Basket Qian have deep internal powers. This low temperature has no effect on them at all.
No effect.
Time passes quietly, Hai hour has passed, and Zi hour is approaching.
In the dark woods, suddenly two points of silver light flashed! Xia Qingcang turned over, jumped up, fell to the ground and stood with his hands behind his back. The aura around him was as cold as a bone, like an ice cellar! His eyes were looking straight ahead, and his eyes were full of coldness.
The fierce spirit!
"Xia Qingcang!" As soon as he moved, Su Wen was immediately alert. He flew down and stood beside him, holding his arms tightly with both hands. He felt that he was on guard and had a fierce aura, and his heart sank. Then he looked at his
Eyes and hearts were even more shocked, and she immediately stretched out her arms to hug him, "Xia Qingcang, calm down! Calm down!"
After their actions, Phantom and others also woke up and came down one after another. Seeing Xia Qingcang like this, a thought suddenly rose in their hearts. Could it be that the time has come when his Yin Yin skill has improved and lost control? So soon?
!
wrong!
Mo Xuan was the first to wake up. He raised his eyes and looked around. The atmosphere around him was wrong!
Li Zhu also noticed it quickly. She raised her eyebrows, guarded Xia Qingcang's side, and looked around cautiously.
"I just realized it now, it's a bit late, kids." An old voice said this with a playful tone, thinking about it in the night sky.
Mo Xuan and others listened attentively, but they couldn't tell where the sound came from!
"Let me just say, a bastard is not worth all of our efforts." It was also an old voice, but this one was full of contempt and cold.
"At the age of twenty-six, Cun Yin has already reached the middle level. He is considered a natural genius!" The third old voice said with some praise and the aura of looking down at the world from above.
"Hmph! The descendant of the Yue tribe, you are a waste!" The fourth old voice was actually aimed at Su Wen. Not only was he contemptuous, but he also directly scolded Su Wen.
There was a flash of cold light! Xia Qingcang raised his hand, flew out the move 'Fanghua', and struck in the direction of the fourth voice.
"You are not a waste, you should hide and hide if you have the skills!" At the same time, Phantom cursed loudly: "The four old guys are playing tricks in front of you, Mr. Phantom. The ones hiding in the dark are old turtles. If you have the skills, come out to compete.
!”
"War ghost clan!" Mo Xuan frowned and immediately ducked to Su Wen's side, assuming a protective posture.
At the same time as he spoke, the aura of the War Ghost Clan became apparent around them. Around them, a dim blue circle of light gradually appeared about a foot away. The circle of light gradually became apparent. Outside the circle, eighteen 'ghosts'
The people from the organization stood outside the management and surrounded them!
"Boundary, damn it!" Li Zhu cursed secretly, "They were already here!"
"The four elders are here in person. They really think highly of us!" Mo Xuan was on guard, and thoughts were racing in his mind. He could set up a barrier in front of them, but Xia Qingcang only now realized that,
It was the voices of four old men again. No need to think anymore, it must be the four elders of the War Ghost Clan, here they are!
Chapter completed!
