Chapter 115 Birds and beasts scream
When they reached the mountain, the two began to walk northeast along the mountain road. Only when they arrived here did they truly relax.
Even if the Zheng family learned the news and decided to avenge Zheng Yong, the forces they could send would only intercept the main traffic roads and deal with various powerful forces. No one would find the mountainside, and no one would have thought that Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun, the two "murderers", would have gone so far and walked many meaningless roads.
The two people were talking about Qin Qin, after all, they were companions who had been together for several years. This girl was very different from her peers and even from her people of the same gender. She had a bold and bold attitude and a maturity that was not in line with her age.
It is somewhat reasonable to appear in the female family of Zheng Xunzhang's family. It is really strange to appear in Qin Xiucai's family. Sometimes Zhu Da couldn't help but wonder if Qin Qin became like this because of herself. Zhu Da usually pretended to behave as per the rules as possible, but the memories and habits of those years were not so easy to erase. Such incompatible and fresh leading thoughts will definitely have an impact on the people around him. Qin Xiucai, Xiang Bo and Zhou Qingyun were all affected, let alone Qin Qin, a girl who is growing up and trying to absorb experience and knowledge.
"Maybe we will be disappointed if we go this time, maybe we will be picked up by Xiang Bo." Zhou Qingyun said with a smile.
Neither of them made it clear that the purpose of sending Qin Qin was to go there. Because it was too cruel, the reason why they sent the girl to a small mountain courtyard was because they were afraid that the assassination of Zheng Yong would fail. Qin Qin stayed in Zheng Jiaji too dangerous and sent her to Baibao Village for protection and could also be separated from her relationship. The reason why she did not send her there immediately was because she was afraid that someone would see the clues in time. If Qin Qin was taken care of, the two would either die or flee.
In Huairen County and Datong Zuowei, there are mountains between the side walls. When you are a distance from the mountain, you can still see the beacon smoke in the north. When you walk at the foot of the mountain, you can't see anything. The two of them don't care about this. Anyway, they have no obstacles to their own family. Before dark, they entered the mountain.
The mountain roads were less crowded than plain roads. When Yuan Biao led them to hunt thieves and thieves, he was just to detour in the mountains. This was difficult to be tracked and it was even more convenient to escape. After they walked on the mountain road, they completely cut off the possibility of the Zheng family's investigation because no one saw it, so it makes sense.
After entering the mountain, they didn't dare to leave. They found a nest to shelter from wind and water, then cleaned the weeds and shrubs, and cooked here. There was no big pot with them, but there was a multi-purpose iron bowl. After boiling water, they ate some dry food. The hot soup and the rice were very soft.
It was dark early in the mountains, and it was still dawn, but the mountainside was already dark. As long as the bonfire was lit at this location, there was no need to worry about the attack of wild animals. Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun had to go to bed early and get up early tomorrow to rush to get there so that they could receive Qin Qin before noon and have supper in Baibao Village.
"......I'm really lucky this time. Both bows and arrows shot into the place where they were...."
"... Zheng Yong and the other five were panicked. No wonder they were just fighting for water and land, bullying others with their power, not much life-and-death battle, and they were in a relaxed mood..."
"...In fact, it is not necessary to be so cautious. If we book the second or third arrow to shoot Zheng Yong, it may not be impossible to succeed, saving a lot of trouble..."
"...Your shooting skills are very good, but we can't just think about winning. We have to prepare for escaping if we lose, so that we can be perfect..."
"...Master is right. You are no different from an old man like this. Young people should have the motivation of me. Those who will lose will still earn a chance of winning..."
After each hunting and fighting, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun would review the experience and gains and losses under Yuan Biao's leadership. Although Yuan Biao left, they still kept this habit because they could indeed feel improvement after summarizing it up again and again. Zhu Da called Xiang Yue as his master, while Zhou Qingyun privately liked to call Master Yuan Biao, although he had never become a disciple.
I was originally planning to take a break earlier, but after the review began, the two of them became excited and became more and more in-depth, because the ambush against Zheng Yong was completely planned and arranged by the two of them, and they achieved their goal, although this success was a bit lucky.
Being fully involved from beginning to end, you will have a clearer grasp of the gains and losses of the entire process and have a deeper understanding. With this experience, you will be able to summarize more.
"...If we do the same thing next time, we can kill all of us on the official road..."
After the two of them concluded, Zhu Da came to the conclusion. Zhou Qingyun nodded calmly. As soon as he said this, he heard a whistling sound in the distance. The two of them stood up suddenly. Zhou Qingyun was more sensitive than Zhu Da in his senses. He frowned slightly and then said, "It's a sound coming from the north."
When he made this judgment, Zhu Da came to the same conclusion, because the sound was getting louder and louder, as if there was a strong wind whistling in the forest. From north to south, if you listen carefully, it seemed that from northeast to southwest, the two of them did not run around. At night in this mountain, running around was seeking death. It was easy to get lost and easily encounter beasts.
Looking up, the sky is still bright. If you are on the side of Baibao Village, you should be able to see the afterglow of the sunset and the sunset at this time. What big things will happen at this time?
While thinking about it, the manic sound had already reached this side. The birds that had already lived and fell were alarmed, chirping in the air, and some wild animals were roaring, and the mountains were in chaos.
Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun held weapons and looked around nervously, but this shock did not last long. The flock of birds that flew into the air fell again, and the manic mountain just now became much quieter, just as the scene just now had not happened.
"Where was the earthquake?" Zhou Qingyun asked.
Zhu Da shook his head slowly. In those more than 20 years of life, he did not encounter such a scene when traveling in the wild. Because there were too few birds and beasts, he encountered them twice in the three years of hunting. He and Zhou Qingyun were quite nervous, but the old man Yuan Biao was very calm. He said that the world was moving in the distance, and the birds and beasts were far more spiritual than humans, so he felt it in advance.
Because Yuan Biao said it was too mysterious, Zhu Da seemed to believe it but not believe it at that time. After a few days after he came out of the mountain, he realized that an earthquake had occurred somewhere in Shanxi, so he was convinced.
Perhaps the abnormal movement just now was affected by an earthquake or something, but at the speed of news spreading in this era, I don’t know when I will know the news.
After experiencing this sudden restlessness, the two of them lost the mood to review. They tidied up the fire and fell down to rest. They could have had a good sleep, but after just now, the two of them were uneasy at night.
But the night was very quiet. After the brightness of the sky in the mountains, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun had already gotten up, feeding the mounts first, then packing up, and continuing to rush forward.
Although I am walking on a mountain road, I cannot walk completely in the mountains, especially when crossing the Xiami River, I have to walk on the shallows and flow slowly over the shallows. I am outside the mountain. After going out, I still walk along the mountain side. In fact, after crossing the Xiami River, I can already see the riverside Xincun and Baibao Village from afar on the mountain side, but I have to pick up people first, so I can't go home first.
The two of them just got on the horse. The howling noise I heard last evening sounded in the distance again. Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun both felt that the howling noise this time was closer to him than yesterday.
Although it is closer, the noise is smaller than yesterday, because when the sky is bright, birds fly up from the plants and trees to find food, and there will be no such frightened manic movement.
Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun were both very calm, but Zhu Da muttered in his heart, "Why did there be any aftershocks when they were so continuous?" Under such chaos, both of them were a little restless and calmed down after comforting them."
The restlessness in the mountains soon disappeared, and the ones that should fly away, and the ones that should run away naturally did not have so much noise. Zhu Da and the other men got up early to prepare for the pleasure of seeing Qin Qin was dissipated a lot, and they just rushed forward silently.
They walked this road well and arrived at the Xiami River within the estimated time. The river surface was not as smooth as a mirror. It seemed that the breeze blew from all directions and blew out disorderly ripples. Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun didn't notice these, but just took off their clothes and put them on the saddle with their luggage, and began to lead the horse across the river.
The deepest part of the river was probably not at the chest of an adult. It was not the first time that their mounts crossed the river. The whole process went smoothly. However, when they were in the river, the two of them looked at each other, and Zhu Da said in a muffled voice: "Let's talk about it when you get ashore."
After getting ashore, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun didn't bother to dress and walked out of the river beach quickly. When they arrived at the mud, they immediately lay down and listened. Solemnity and shock appeared on both of them.
"Big team of horses?"
"Hundreds of cavalry, thousands? How could there be such a large number of troops? Could it be that a large army passes through the border?"
Both of them learned the ability to lie down and judge the size of the enemy cavalry with Yuan Biao and Xiang Bo. Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun exchanged judgments, but did not continue to speak. They all hurriedly went to dress and pack up, then turned over and drove the horse, and drove the mount to run out of the mountain.
They felt something in the river and made a judgment when they heard the sound. The big horse team came from northeast to southwest, and on the side of the river. In other words, the big horse team was probably coming towards the direction of Baibao Village.
"Is the alarm that last night and this morning was because of the horse team's march!"
"Why don't they rush through the day, but get up early and go to bed late!"
Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun yelled at each other in the wind, their faces were gloomy. The large team of horses was moving near the mountains, shaking the ground, which would indeed disturb the nearby birds and beasts. What kind of horses would marching along the edge of the mountain? What kind of horses would marching from early morning to early morning, dusk to dark? Why did they hide their own tracks?
