Before the house is confiscated, the enemy's warehouse is emptied and exiled

The next day, when the first ray of sunlight shone on the earth, everyone was ready to go into the mountains.

Before entering the mountains, they had made sufficient mental preparations.

After all, even the official road is dusty and rugged, so the way up the mountain must be even more difficult.

However, once they set foot on the mountain road, they unexpectedly discovered that the situation was not as bad as they had expected. Although the mountain road was still winding, it was still easy to walk on.

However, the narrow mountain road made it impossible for carriages to pass.

After some discussion, everyone finally decided to abandon the carriage and the wooden wheelchair.

Since there was only one horse to pull the cart, Xiao Heng and Shen Qingge had to ride the horse together.

As for the carriage, I can buy a new one after I arrive at the market.

In this way, the group traveled lightly and headed deep into the mountains and forests.

Along the way, everyone remained alert.

Cangyu led a few people and walked at the front of the team.

From time to time, he would gallop forward on his horse, carefully surveying the surrounding terrain, not missing any corner where danger might exist.

In the middle of the team are Xiao Heng and Shen Qingge.

The two men rode on one horse. Xiao Heng held the reins, keeping a gentleman's distance and walking slowly forward.

The rest of the attendants walked on their sides and behind them, protecting them in the middle.

Despite this, Shen Qingge did not let her guard down. She always focused her attention on opening her sharp five senses, looking far into the distance and listening attentively, trying to catch even the slightest abnormality.

However, maintaining this state for a long time is undoubtedly a drain on one's mental energy.

About half an hour later, Shen Qingge began to feel deeply tired.

At a certain moment, a strong sense of sleepiness swept over her like a tide, and she leaned back involuntarily.

In a flash, Xiao Heng noticed this subtle change.

Almost at the same time, he stretched out his arms, hugged Shen Qingge's slightly petite body, and held her completely in his warm and broad arms.

Shen Qingge, who was suddenly embraced by the man, trembled violently and her body became a little stiff in an instant.

She immediately came to her senses and realized the embarrassing situation. She straightened up hastily, her cheeks flushed.

She said shyly, "Your Highness, I'm sorry. I was disrespectful just now!"

A faint blush instantly appeared on Xiao Heng's face. His hands unconsciously tightened the reins, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke:

"It's okay... Don't take it to heart, girl! I see you're exhausted right now, so I guess your five senses have been activated again, right?

You don't need to waste your energy so frequently, the vast sky will pave the way ahead!

You have also seen it with your own eyes. That boy is very skilled and acts steadily. With him leading the way ahead, there will definitely be no mistakes!

If you really reach a place not marked on the map, it won't be too late for you to use your extraordinary five senses!"

After saying that, he gently loosened his arms around Shen Qingge, and a barely perceptible concern flashed in his eyes.

Shen Qingge originally wanted to open her mouth to argue a few words. She had good intentions and was worried that something unexpected might happen.

But in the end, he did not speak, listened to what Xiao Heng said, and restrained his extremely sharp hearing and visual perception abilities.

It was quite a coincidence that not long after they continued to move forward, they saw wisps of mist slowly rising from the ground, like a layer of thin white gauze, gradually covering the mountains and forests in front of them, making their vision blurred.

This feeling was somewhat familiar to Shen Qingge. In a trance, she seemed to be back in the miasma-filled forest that she had passed through when she was exiled.

At that time, the scene of the terrifying miasma flying in the sky like flowers scattered by a fairy was vivid in Lin's mind, which made her alert.

She immediately shouted:

"Your Highness, quickly stop the team, everyone retreat, and send someone to retrieve Cangyu and the others. Quickly!"

After hearing her urgent words, Xiao Heng did not have time to think and immediately gave the order:

"Everyone, stop immediately!

Hei Mu, you must rush forward and bring Cang Yu and the others back safely! No mistakes are allowed! "

Seeing this, everyone present did not dare to hesitate at all. They stopped moving forward and stood quietly in place, waiting for the next instructions.

The secret guard named Heimu instantly raised his whip and rode his horse into the forest in front of him, which was filled with thin white mist.

However, the fog seemed to be driven by some mysterious force, rising at an extremely fast speed. In a blink of an eye, the surroundings became white and it was difficult to see one's fingers when stretching out one's hand.

At this moment, everyone began to get anxious, and one of them shouted at the top of his voice:

"Master, what should we do in this situation?"

Shen Qingge also took over the conversation and said:

"Your Highness, there is no time to lose and we must not delay any further.

The most urgent task is to evacuate everyone to a safe area as quickly as possible and not let them be swallowed up by this strange thick fog.

As for Cangyu and the others... leave it to me to find them!"

Before he finished speaking, Shen Qingge swiftly took the reins from Xiao Heng's hand and pulled them hard with both hands.

Accompanied by a loud and piercing horse neigh, she quickly turned her horse's head and galloped back, while shouting loudly:

"Brothers! Hurry up and keep up with my pace! Speed ​​up! Faster..."

Hearing her urgent call, the guards urged their horses and hurriedly followed her. For a moment, the sound of horse hooves echoed throughout the forest, raising clouds of dust.

In this way, everyone galloped on horseback through the forest. After about an incense stick of time, they finally succeeded in getting rid of the terrifying fog.

Everyone was exhausted and panting, with beads of sweat the size of beans constantly sliding down their foreheads, soaking their hair and clothes.

Everyone wiped the thin layer of sweat from their foreheads with their hands and breathed heavily, feeling quite grateful for having survived the disaster.

After calming down a little, Shen Qingge immediately turned around and said anxiously to Xiao Heng behind him:

"Your Highness, now that everyone is out of danger for the time being, I will go find Cangyu and the others!

Please dismount and rest first. If you encounter any unexpected situation, don't wait for me, just go!"

But Xiao Heng did not move when he heard this.

Seeing this, the guards quickly echoed:

"Yes, my lord! Please listen to Madam Shen and dismount and rest for a while!

I am willing to accompany Madam Shen to find the others!"

"Count me in, I'm willing to go too!"

"..."

But in the face of everyone's persuasion, Xiao Heng seemed to turn a deaf ear.

In the next moment, to everyone's surprise, he suddenly squeezed his legs against the horse's belly, and both he and the horse rushed into the thick fog.
