The host of the quick travel is lacking in virtue for eight generations

They took a break here as well. They didn't know how long they would have to walk in the desert, whether they could find a place to rest, and what the situation was like in Dafeng County, so they planned to rest in this village for a day and a night and then leave tomorrow morning.

This time they learned their lesson and paid attention to their surroundings along the way, making sure they didn't see anyone else before coming in. They planned to stay in the cellar where they found the water at night. The cellar was not closed and had two ventilation outlets.

The goat was tied not far from the entrance to the cellar. It would call if there was any movement, thus attracting the attention of others and buying them time to leave or launch a surprise attack.

The temperature here is obviously lower, so they have to put on more clothes in the morning and evening. Fortunately, they stripped the five bandits of their outer clothes, otherwise Gu Lanzhang and the other three would have no clothes to change into.

Moreover, the wind here is very strong and sand can be blown into the house, so it is more comfortable in the cellar than outside.

While taking a break, Xiao Yun and Gu Mingyue and their sister cooked yam and chestnuts, then peeled and crushed the skin to make yam and chestnut cakes. This way, they would not take up much space and were easy to carry, so they could be eaten directly on the road.

But plans always fail to keep up with changes. During this stop, they were not caught up by the bandits, but met the conscription officers and soldiers.

These officers and soldiers went to Dafeng County to recruit soldiers, and returned with the recruited men, preparing to meet up with those in Shun'an County, and then return to the county town together.

They didn't notice Xiao Yun's family, they just passed by here.

They had already searched the village and knew that it was empty. Xiao Yun and his companions did not go out openly to make trouble. Even when they cooked, they stayed inside the house and did not use other people's stoves, otherwise the smoke coming out of the chimney would easily attract attention.

They also had people outside observing the surroundings to see if anyone was coming, so they immediately discovered the large group of people coming out of the desert.

Gu Lanzhang immediately took his family into the cellar, even pulling the sheep into the cellar, ready to hide until the other party left.

Xiao Yun originally wanted to ask Xiao Lin to go out and find out what the situation was and what these people were doing.

Unexpectedly, it was not so troublesome at all, because the house they were in was close to the roadside, and the cellar was also next to the roadside. When those people passed by, two officers and soldiers came over to urinate in a hurry and chatted for a while, and they were overheard by them.

It turned out that the situation in Dafeng County was no different from here. Not only did they suffer from the disaster, but it was even more serious because they suffered two locust plagues. The locusts made a comeback, turned around and flew back.

Therefore, recruiting soldiers was more difficult, causing these officers and soldiers to run to the oasis town in the desert to gather the required number of people, which was why it took so long to return.

"It seems that the entire county is really recruiting soldiers. We can't avoid it unless we leave Yanshui County. It's meaningless even if we go through the desert to Dafeng County with great difficulty."

After the two men walked away, Gu Lanzhang sighed and said.

Xiao Yun thought about the male protagonist's future movements and suggested, "Why don't we go west? Go back to the fork in the road and go south. About ten miles away is Yazui Mountain. Going through the mountain is the territory of Fanyang County. At least I have some impression of that place, so I'm not completely in the dark."

Yazui Mountain is the boundary between Yanshui County and Fanyang County. It is named after its shape which resembles a duck's beak. It belongs to the Xiling Mountains. The vegetation and animals there are very rich, and some of them are even relatively rare species.

The family discussed it seriously and decided that this was the safest way. They had already gained some experience after traveling in the mountains for half a month. As long as they did not go into the real deep mountains and tried to walk on the periphery, they would not encounter any wild beasts.

Moreover, it is much more comfortable in the mountains than outside. At least there is no worry about food and drink. You can't find food outside, and the water sources are getting scarcer. You dare not go into those county towns or towns. Now, even if you have money, you can't spend it.

After making the decision, he was worried about running into soldiers again, so he did not leave immediately. Instead, he prepared to take a nap in the cellar and travel at night in a more hidden way.

After everyone went to bed, Xiao Yun did not sleep with them. Instead, he let Xiao Lin out, gave him a powerful sleeping drug, and asked him to find a way to give it to the officers and soldiers.

She wanted to let those able-bodied men go, which was both a good thing and a way to create chaos, making it easier for them to leave.

She just didn't care whether those people would run away or not. She gave them a chance. If they still foolishly waited there for the officers and soldiers to wake up, that would be their lives.

It was noon, a time when people were easily tired and exhausted. Xiao Lin took advantage of the other party's rest and drink water to give him the medicine, so he came back quickly.

Xiao Yun didn't know that this small operation had destroyed the male protagonist's right-hand man.

Among these people there was one who used to be a martial arts master in an official's family. Later, because his master committed a crime and was implicated, he lived in an oasis town under an assumed name and became a hunter there.

Of course, it’s not the kind of hunting in the mountains, but the kind that specifically hunts wild donkeys in the desert.

Unexpectedly, he could not escape the fate of being conscripted. In the original world's plot, he was transferred to the male protagonist's side because of his outstanding performance. Later, he followed the male protagonist in battles all the way, showing his superb martial arts and tactical attainments.

These tactics of his were completely self-taught, honed from years of hunting wild donkeys, which made him one of the first echelons around the hero.

Because of Xiao Yun and Xiao Lin's interference, the other party seized the opportunity and ran away, and even ran to the neighboring country. When the male protagonist Shen Qingchen went to war with the neighboring country for the first time, he directly helped the neighboring country win a great victory, leaving the male protagonist without any success.

What was supposed to be a good opportunity to become an internet celebrity turned out to be a closed-door dud, causing instability in the morale of the troops, directly changing the direction of the plot and providing an opportunity for Yaoyao and Yueyue.

The more the male protagonist fails, the more he asks for help from the system, and the more he uses the system. The more times the system shows up, the chances of being captured by Yaoyao also greatly increase.

Yaoyao found an opportunity to remove the system from the male protagonist when he was regrouping and preparing to fight again according to the system's instructions.

Then, as soon as the system left the male protagonist, the son of luck, it completely lost its protection and was directly exposed to the rules, and was chased and struck by the thunder punishment brought down by the rules. If Yaoyao had not reacted quickly and asked Xiaoyueyue to cover up its breath and put it into the space button, all the luck it had seized would have been taken back.

In this way, the system will completely disappear from this world, so how can he study it?
