It's still February, but the sun is shining brightly in Yanhangu. Although it's not as hot as summer, it's not at all like the weather that should be in late winter and early spring. There is a long and narrow valley in Yanhang Valley, with high mountains and cliffs on both sides. The canyon is left alone in the middle, which stretches for several miles. In the wide part, more than ten people can stand in parallel, but in the extremely narrow part, it is reluctant for the two of them to stand side by side.
The troops of more than 400 people have long since been out of formation, just slowly advancing in the same direction.
The leader of the team was Lieutenant General Min. After getting along for the past ten days, everyone knew a little about his background. Wei Lin once wanted to take advantage of the night time to go to Lieutenant General Min to get close to him and ask for information, but the two soldiers in charge stopped Wei Lin. Under Jiang Ye's cynicism, he had no choice but to stop. At this time, Wei Lin and his party were in the middle of the team, mixed in the crowd, very inconspicuous.
After so many days of long-distance travel, the smell of the people around them is very unpleasant. Now, in such a narrow place as Yan Hangu, the smell of hundreds of big men is unbearable.
Jiang Ye had been covering his mouth and nose for a long time. Wei Lin looked calm and composed, but in fact he was suffocated by the smell, but he couldn't complain.
"Stop covering it, hypocritical." Wei Lin said.
"It's you who stinks the most, stay away from me." Jiang Ye ignored him, Yi Shi covered his nose, and took a few quick steps forward, as if he really wanted to stay away from Wei Lin.
Jia Er heard the conversation between the two of them, his expression was stunned, he sniffed around, and said dumbly: "I don't smell it..."
"You may be blind," Wei Lin said.
Lin left's expression was also not good. I don't know if it was because of this manly smell, or because he had never traveled such a long distance. Everyone had not had much conversation for several days. Said: "It doesn't smell very good, this, this is still a few days away..."
"We've already arrived at Yanhangu, so we can get there today." Wei Lin said from a distance, and he could vaguely see the high wooden platform in front of him.
"Too, great, I really can't do it..." Lin Zuo said.
Seeing this, Jia Da said with concern: "Otherwise, I'll carry you."
Jia Da is a real person. In the past few days, Jia Da and Jia Er, two people with developed limbs and simple minds, have shown incomparable advantages over others. The two of them seem to be unaware that they are tired, and they are very energetic every day. Aside from the two of them, Wei Lin was the only one left, who seemed to have more than enough physical strength. Although Jiang also couldn't hold back like Lin Zuo, his face was pale.
Lin Yu shook his head: "No need, no need, this is not coming soon, you can persevere."
The crowd continued to move forward during the conversation, and Yan Hangu gradually widened. After about half an hour, Deputy General Min finally stopped.
At this time, they were in a wide and unusual place in Yanhang Valley. I don't know if it was artificially excavated or naturally presented. Wei Lin stretched his neck and looked forward. In front of him was the wooden platform he saw earlier.
"Everyone rest in place!" Vice-General Min shouted at the front.
"Rest in place!" The steward in the middle repeated.
With this order, everyone sat directly on the ground to rest.
The clothes on Jiang Ye and Wei Lin were tattered, and they looked like beggars compared to the people around them.
After resting for less than a cup of tea, Wei Lin couldn't sit still, and whispered to Jiang Ye, "I'll take a look ahead."
"Go for what?"
"Just look."
"It's just you." Jiang also gave him a blank look, ignoring him, and acquiesced.
Wei Lin bent down, not wanting to be too conspicuous, so he quietly slid through the crowd, and finally got to the front.
I saw a person standing next to Deputy General Min, who was reporting the situation to him.
"Yan and Shang, a total of four hundred and twenty-eight people."
"Just like that?" the man said impatiently. From his clothes and tone, Wei Lin judged that it should be Xue Ziqin, General Xue.
"Are there many people in other places?" Deputy Min wrote cautiously on his face, as if his tone was a little wrong, and the General Xue in front of him would be angry.
"With more than 400 people like you, the imperial court has recruited more than 900 people for me. It's really useless. There are less than 1,000 people. What do I want these recruits who can't handle their shoulders and can't resist? Acrobatics?" But obviously, Xue Ziqin was already very dissatisfied, even if he wasn't dissatisfied with Lieutenant General Min, the anger was really on Lieutenant General Min.
Lieutenant General Min, who had always been unsmiling in the eyes of Wei Lin and the others, was now sobbing and didn't dare to speak at all, looking a bit funny.
In the crowd, everyone sat on the ground to rest, Wei Lin lowered his body, but his face was still looking at where Xue Ziqin was.
Xue Ziqin was a good archery player, and his eyesight was astounding. When he glanced over, he saw Wei Lin, a timid man, eavesdropping on what they were talking about.
"What are you peeping at? Yes, just you, get over here." Xue Ziqin waved his hand and asked Wei Lin.
Wei Lin pretended to be stupid and planned to pretend that he couldn't hear him. He turned around and started talking to the person next to him. Unexpectedly, the person next to him looked at him with a foolish look, completely ignoring him.
Xue Ziqin was full of anger and had nowhere to go, so he stepped forward and walked towards Wei Lin. He bent down slightly, lifted the collar on Wei Lin's back, and lifted Wei Lin directly.
Come together, Wei Lin is very eye-catching in the crowd.
Jiang, who was sitting not far away, also saw that Wei Lin was arrested, and he felt bad. He didn't know what good things this bastard had done.
He wanted to go and see it, but he was afraid that he would be unlucky with Wei Lin. Jiang also thought about it for a moment, but decided to stay the same and wait for the changes.
Xue Ziqin squinted at Wei Lin. His eyes were not big at all, but long and narrow, with double-dan phoenix eyes. At this moment, he squinted at Wei Lin with a wicked taste. Wei Lin had no choice but to smirk. The so-called "stretching hand does not hit the smiling face", he can only hope that the famous general in front of him can speak reason.
"Are you still laughing? What are you laughing at? General Ben is funny?"
"No, no, it's not funny, it's hard to laugh." Obviously, Wei Lin's expectations fell through.
Xue Ziqin looked at Wei Lin's face and felt a little familiar, so he looked at it carefully: "Have we met?"
"Probably..." Wei Lin said, bowing his head a little deliberately.
"Where have you seen it?"
Wei Lin thought for a while: "In... in a dream?"
When Vice-General Min heard this, he didn't hold back and burst out laughing.
Xue Ziqin turned his head, looked at Lieutenant General Min coldly and asked, "It's funny?"
"Not funny… "
"Then you're still laughing? Do you want to go to practice?"
"General, the general is kind, the last general knows it's wrong..." Vice-General Min looked panicked, but Wei Lin couldn't help but want to laugh at this appearance.
Wei Lin's smile completely angered Xue Ziqin. I saw Xue Ziqin sneer, let go of Wei Lin, and said, "You two love to laugh so much?"
Wei Lin timidly added fuel to the fire: "I heard that men who love to laugh are not too bad..."
"Really? Do you know why?" Xue Ziqin asked with raised eyebrows.
"do not know… "
"Because even those with bad luck can't laugh," Xue Ziqin's expression suddenly turned cold, "The battle is imminent, you two bastards still have the time to talk about cross talk, right? Min Qiu, you and this kid, give it to me tonight. Go practice."
"General! Don't, General! The last general is innocent!"
"… What is extra training?"
"I won't know tonight." Xue Ziqin said, and left without looking back, "Min Qiu, arrange for these people to camp by themselves."
"Yes!" Lieutenant General Min's expression was very painful. He waited for Xue Ziqin to walk away, and looked at Wei Lin with some resentment, "You unlucky child, aren't you here to make trouble?"
"Ah..." Wei Lin didn't know what to say, but things really started because of him, but this General Xue was making too much of a fuss.
"All officers and soldiers obey orders!" Min Qiu shouted to the four hundred people behind him, all of them stood up and looked at him. At this moment, Wei Lin was standing at the front of the team, right in front of Min Qiu.
"A group of five, go up the mountain to chop down trees and set up a camp for yourself." Min Qiu shouted to the two soldiers again, "You two, go to the camp and call twenty people, and then there is nothing to do with the two of you."
"Yes!"
As soon as these words came out, four hundred people wailed together.
It has not been half an hour since the rest, and the weak legs are so relaxed that they are almost unable to stand up. I did not expect to go up the mountain and camp.
"That, Lieutenant General Min, I'll go to the back to form a team first."
"Go, go, I'll be angry when I see you unlucky child." Min Qiu waved his hand impatiently, motioning Wei Lin to get out, "You'll know how stupid you are in the evening."
"Follow your orders!" After saying that, Wei Lin went to find Jiang Ye. At this time, he didn't know anything about his fate at night and was not worried.
"What are you doing?" As soon as Wei Lin returned to the vicinity of Jiang Ye, Jiang also asked.
Wei Lin scratched his hair and said with a hilarious smile, "It's okay, I just overheard General Xue's speech and was found out, saying that he would practice at night or something."
"Aren't you going to die if you don't cause trouble for a day?" Jiang also said.
"Anyway, what are you mad at for what I've provoked?"
Before Jiang could scold Wei Lin for his ignorant behavior, Jia Da took the lead: "Brother Wei, you don't know how much Brother Jiang is worried about you!"
"That's right." Jia Er routinely helped.
Jiang Ye glanced over with a cold gaze, and the two of them closed their mouths angrily.
"It's really nothing, don't worry about me." Wei Lin patted Jiang Ye's shoulder with a smile.
"It's said to be a team of five, you can bring me one." Lin Yu said suddenly.
Wei Lin nodded: "I think so, plus you are exactly five people."
More than 400 people, in groups of five, soon separated, everyone stood together, and it seemed clear at a glance. The twenty veterans that Min Qiu called arrived soon. Each veteran brought four groups of people, and Min Qiu brought the rest by himself. Then the veterans began to take them up the mountain, chop wood, and then to the place where they had assembled. Camp.
Wei Lin and Jia Da Jia Er were still alive and well. They took over the tools brought by the veterans and began to chop down trees. Jiang Ye and Lin Zuo, who had no physical strength, were in charge of collecting them and then transporting them down.
Lin Zu knew a lot about carpentry work, so he volunteered to take up the camp work. According to the veteran's instructions, his movements were much faster than others. Jiang also looked at it and felt a little interesting, so he followed Lin Zu and started to do it.
In Wei Lin's words, this is called: "Men ploughing and women weaving, you two weak women, just pretend to be a house."
Then he was severely beaten by Jiang Ye.
