The maze forest at [-]:[-] was still shrouded in darkness, and with the hard work of Pei Shang's men, the blocked road was finally cleared.It is said to be unblocked, but it is only enough for two people to run side by side.
"Let's go!" After Ji Houchen finished speaking, he led his troops forward.
Because the passage is too small, the horses can only enter one by one.
"This road is not long, at most 200 meters, just persevere." Pei Shang turned around and said.
Cheng Xiuyuan thinks that this Marshal Pei is actually quite a nice person. He has never seen him before, and thought he was the kind of insidious person playing tricks, but seeing him now, he feels that he is better than that cunning Ji Houchen. A lot of decent.Since Shengyu and He Shengliang, he thought, this should be the case between Mo Yunxuan and Pei Shang!
"Cheng Butler, let's go!" Seeing that Cheng Xiuyuan was distracted, Li Jiang reminded him specially.
"Oh, good." Cheng Xiuyuan came back to his senses, Mo Yunxuan had already walked into the passage, he trotted a few steps quickly, and squeezed to Mo Yunxuan's side.
Although those soldiers managed to open a passage, the dead branches inside the passage, and some branches had barbs on them, which would scratch the bare/exposed skin if they were not careful.
"Your Highness, be careful."
Cheng Xiuyuan deliberately walked in front of Mo Yunxuan, and broke off the branch that was growing in midair.
Mo Yunxuan silently looked at Cheng Xiuyuan who was constantly busy in front of him, and felt that he had really changed a lot since he was injured.
"Ah!" Cheng Xiuyuan snorted softly and immediately closed his mouth. He secretly gasped, he spread his hand, and a barb pierced into his middle finger, saying that the ten fingers connect to the heart. , Sure enough, that's right!
Although Cheng Xiuyuan deliberately concealed it, Mo Yunxuan still heard it.
"Let me see." Regardless of Cheng Xiuyuan's struggle, Mo Yunxuan forcibly pulled his hand in front of him.
"Your Highness, it's all right, it's just a thorn."
"It's okay, in the wilderness, how do you know whether these plants are poisonous?" Mo Yunxuan leaned close to Cheng Xiuyuan's hand, and saw the barb on his middle finger.Only then did he realize that this man's hands were so white and slender, like green onions, but now they were stained with impurities from the branches, making them a little dirty.
Mo Yunxuan quickly pulled out the thorn on Cheng Xiuyuan's hand, then took out a clean handkerchief from his pocket and threw it to him.
"Put your fingers in your mouth to disinfect them, and wipe your hands clean with a handkerchief."
"Ah?" Cheng Xiuyuan's eyes widened, "Didn't you just say that you don't know if this plant is poisonous? If I inhale it with my mouth, then if it is poisonous, wouldn't I be poisoned?"
Mo Yunxuan felt his head swell and ache, he leaned in front of Cheng Xiuyuan, their noses were about to touch each other.
"If it is poisonous, I will count you as a heroic sacrifice, and I will credit you, and then I will bury you here, with your skin stinking and your body rotten!"
Cheng Xiuyuan had already sensed Mo Yunxuan's anger, and took a step back foolishly: "Your Highness, please go."
Mo Yunxuan looked at each other coldly and walked forward.
It didn't take long for everyone to pass through the passage and organize the team at the other end of the passage.
The sky gradually became brighter, the fog dispersed a lot, and the whole forest became clear to everyone's eyes.The sunlight passing through the mist did not significantly change the temperature in the forest, and everyone still felt a little cold.
"You said, did this Shengxi tribe just happen to appear in the Lost Path Forest or lived here?" Ji Houchen observed all the way, but found nothing related to the Shengxi tribe.
"If you found it so easily, you wouldn't have come in person." Pei Shang said.
"Marshal Pei, I'm curious how you are still so interested in this Shengxi clansman when you already have a large army in your hand?" Ji Houchen retorted.
"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you. According to what you said, I'm also very curious about your motives."
Ji Houchen replied without hesitation: "How much intention can I have as a businessman, but I just want to make more money. If I find the Shengxi tribe in the end, then whoever of you can afford the money, I will pay for it." Who will you give the Shengxi people to?" After speaking, he also looked at the reactions of Mo Yunxuan and Pei Shang.
Mo Yunxuan and Pei Shang naturally believed that Ji Houchen was telling the truth. This season, Ji Houchen was very wealthy, and he wanted to be the first richest man in the universe, so he would do anything to make money.
"Let's see where to go next!" Mo Yunxuan was too lazy to argue with them, so he asked Li Jiang to take out the map and start surveying the route.
The place where they are now is a large open space, because the three teams are here, so it has been crowded.The left side of the clearing is a dense forest, and the vegetation in the middle is mostly shrubs. There is only a winding path on the right side that is easier to walk.
"Now we have to go through the forest according to the route to see if we can find the Shengxi tribe." Pei Shang turned his gaze to the path, "There are footprints on the path here, and someone must have walked there , why not choose this path.”
Cheng Xiuyuan also felt that what Pei Shang said was reasonable, so he looked at Mo Yunxuan.
Mo Yunxuan frowned in thought, and finally ordered the troops to divide into two groups, one group led by him to walk the path, and the other led by Li Jiang to go to other places.
His decision influenced the decisions of others as well.
In the end, both Pei Shang and Ji Houchen divided their troops into half and marched from other places, all in order to increase the probability of finding the Shengxi people.
In order to save energy, everyone got on their horses, and Cheng Xiuyuan still rode the same horse with the soldiers.
For some reason, the sky suddenly became overcast, as if it was going to rain.
"Your Highness, it's going to rain." Cheng Xiuyuan said.
Mo Yunxuan raised his head to look at the dark cloud billowing sky, and frowned: "It seems that the rain is not light."
"Let's find a place to shelter from the rain! The weather here is weird, and there's no guarantee that it won't rain for a long time." Pei Shang turned to ask everyone for their opinions.
"Walking forward, you might meet a place to shelter from the rain." Ji Houchen looked around, "There are only large trees here, and it is not a wise choice to shelter from the rain under the trees."
"Let's take a walk ahead!" Mo Yunxuan glanced back at Cheng Xiuyuan.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and I feel that the dark cloud above my head is within reach.
In order to find shelter from the rain before it rained, everyone began to work hard.
Cheng Xiuyuan, who can't ride a horse, suffered a lot. He never thought that bumping on a horse would be so uncomfortable, and the contents of his stomach were rolling up and down with the horse's back.He patted the soldier riding in front of him, and tried his best to hold back the feeling of nausea: "Brother, you can ride slowly, I... I can't stand it..."
But the soldier said very seriously: "My lord, please bear with me, we will not be able to keep up with the team if we slow down, if you want to vomit, you can vomit on me!"
Everyone has said so, even if Cheng Xiuyuan feels uncomfortable, he is too embarrassed to complain again, he just hopes to find a place to shelter from the rain sooner.
"There is a mountain wall ahead, maybe there is a cave that can shelter from the rain." Ji Houchen pointed to the front.
Mo Yunxuan estimated that it would take about 10 minutes from here to the other side of the mountain wall, but he didn't know when the rain would fall.
The surrounding trees were so tall that they blocked most of the line of sight, and now they could only go to the direction of the mountain wall.
A flash of lightning flashed across the sky, covering the forest with a layer of golden light, and opened the curtain of heavy rain, followed by billowing thunder.
"Now we must move forward at full speed." Ji Houchen raised his horsewhip, leaving a series of horseshoe marks on the road.
Cheng Xiuyuan wanted to cry, but the current speed was almost making him vomit on the spot, and he still wanted to speed up.
The soldier brother turned around and told Cheng Xiuyuan with rare understanding that he was going to speed up, so he had to hold on.
What Pei Shang said was indeed correct, there is a sunken cave under this mountain wall.And just before arriving at the cave, it began to rain heavily.
After getting off the horse, Cheng Xiuyuan lay down on the stone wall and vomited.
"I didn't eat much, and you vomited it all up." Mo Yunxuan looked at Cheng Xiuyuan who was in a state of distress, and hated iron for nothing.
Originally, they planned to send someone in to check it out, but they had to give up due to the rain.
This cave is so big that you can't see the end at a glance. The highest place is close to five meters, and the lowest place is about three meters. The interior space can accommodate two to three hundred people.
At the same time, its terrain is low, and the ground is full of stones, and the rain outside formed a stagnant water that quickly flowed in.
"It seems that this cave is not an excellent shelter from the rain!" Ji Houchen found a high place to stand.
Pei Shang nodded: "The stones here are rarely sharp-edged, which shows that it rains all year round."
A flash of lightning flashed again, illuminating the cave, and Mo Yunxuan looked into the depths of the cave, thinking that there might be traces of members of the Shengxi clan in this big cave.
"Bring a searchlight over here." Mo Yunxuan stretched out his hand to signal Cheng Xiuyuan.
"Here, Your Highness." Cheng Xiuyuan passed the things over quickly.
The range of this searchlight can reach 300-400 meters, but it still hasn't reached the end of the cave.
"This cave is actually so long," Ji Houchen sighed, with a sinister smile on his lips, looking a bit evil under the thunderstorm, "Anyway, the rain is so heavy, why don't we go in and have a look?"
"Then you take the lead?" Mo Yunxuan handed the searchlight to a soldier next to him, his eyebrows raised, "Since you want to see it, I will naturally accompany you."
The deeper the cave is, the darker it becomes. You must rely entirely on external light sources to move forward, and darkness means danger. No one wants to be cannon fodder if you shoot the first bird.
"What do Young Master Ji think of His Highness's proposal?" Pei Shang also stood by Mo Yunxuan's side.
Ji Houchen looked at Pei Shang and Mo Yunxuan with bright eyes, did not speak, and laughed a few times after a long time: "Okay, that's the decision."
Mo Yunxuan and Pei Shang were slightly surprised, but Ji Houchen himself agreed, and they would not say anything more.In fact, everyone knows that there are hidden dangers, but it is not without benefits.
"Let's go!" After Ji Houchen finished speaking, he led his troops forward.
Because the passage is too small, the horses can only enter one by one.
"This road is not long, at most 200 meters, just persevere." Pei Shang turned around and said.
