Those stones have obviously been washed by water for many years to become so white.
There is a river not far ahead. It is the deep winter and dry season. If it is summer, the river should be flooded here.
There are two roads to Wenshui, one along the river, and another detour to the north, which is more difficult.
Chen Changsheng chose this route in the north. This was different from the itinerary that had been planned in advance, but it was also planned in advance.
To the northwest of Hanqiu City is a large piece of lifeless rocky mountain. Passing through this rocky mountain and bypassing a large swamp is the Congzhou Military Mansion.
The Congzhou Military Mansion is the most remote of the more than ten military mansions in the north of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is already very close to the territory of the Yaozu.
Walking in the desolate and uninhabited rocky mountains with few grass roots, Chen Changsheng naturally remembered that Xue Xingchuan made his fortune in the military mansion of Congzhou, and then he thought of Mrs. The young master of the Xue family, and then, remembered Luo Luo, whom he hadn't seen for many years.
The sun was hanging in the western sky, and a lot of light was filtered out by the raised dust, which made me feel a little unhappy.
Just as he was about to turn over a rocky mountain in front of him, Nanke's small face suddenly showed an expression of extreme vigilance, and his pupils shrank slightly.
Although she is foolish and foolish now, and has completely forgotten the past, her realm strength still exists, and she is extremely sensitive to the danger hidden in the world.
Chen Changsheng glanced at her.
Nanke raised his face and sniffed the air, like a puppy.
"What smell?" Chen Changsheng asked.
"The smell of blood, a very strong smell of blood."
Nanke's voice did not have any ups and downs, and his emotions were very indifferent, as if he was talking about the taste of food.
Chen Changsheng asked, "Did you smell that monster's stench?"
After leaving Hanqiu City, the monster never appeared again, and he was still vigilant. If the monster was really of Huang Quan's lineage as he judged, it would be very troublesome.
Nanke shook his head, lowered his head and thought for a while, then continued to walk up the mountain ridge.
Coming from Hanqiu City, the gravels all over the ground are the same color as the sky, they are all gray.
However, when they climbed over the mountain, the color of the sky and the earth suddenly changed.
The other side of the mountain is red, not because of the changes in the landform, but because it is stained red with blood.
There was blood everywhere, dead bodies everywhere.
Some of the corpses were like hills. Judging from the rough hair and the unique shape of the helmet, they should be warriors of the Ursa clan.
There are also many corpses of Terran soldiers.
The stones on the ground were stained red with blood, and thick blood was everywhere, exuding a stench.
It was as if a small war had just broken out here.
Among the corpses all over the floor, only one person was still alive. He slowly stood up and turned to look at Chen Changsheng.
In such a severe cold weather, he was only wearing a single shirt with the sleeves rolled up, his forearm was exposed, and his trousers were also shorter than the average person. Sword and running will make people feel a chill.
He is still the same as before.
Chen Changsheng seemed to have seen the young man standing in the morning light outside the palace during the imperial examination.
The morning light shone slightly, and five years had passed.
Chen Changsheng walked over to him.
Zhe Xiu greeted Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng opened his arms, ready to give a warm hug in the way of Tang Sanshiliu.
But Zhexiu held the sword, a bright red was faintly visible in the depths of his pupils, and he was about to transform into a madman.
Chen Changsheng followed his line of sight and found that he was staring at Nanke, so he understood, and said, "It's all right."
Zhexiu didn't relax his vigilance, stared at Nanke and said, "What's going on?"
Back then in the Zhou Garden, he had never actually met Nanke face to face, but with his temperament, he naturally did a lot of investigation afterwards and was always ready to meet again in the future. He didn't expect that when he saw the little demon princess again, she would follow Chen Changsheng, and it was obvious that she was a follower.
Chen Changsheng lowered his arm, signaled with his eyes that it is inconvenient to talk in detail at this time, and said, "I will explain to you later."
Then he looked at the corpses all over the ground and asked, "What's going on here?"
"Someone is worried that you are going from the north, and sent someone to intercept and kill you."
The tone of Zhexiu's speech was still as flat as before, or indifferent, as if nothing could cause his emotions to change too drastically.
For example, these bloody scenes and the conspiracy hidden behind it-assassinating the pope is not a trivial matter.
Nanke's voice suddenly sounded, with vigilance and distrust: "Did you kill these people?"
She doesn't know Zhe Xiu, but she can feel the danger of Zhe Xiu. It is natural to be vigilant, and it is natural to distrust her.
To be sent to intercept and kill Chen Changsheng, these bear warriors and human warriors must have extremely strong combat effectiveness, and there must be many strong ones.
No matter how good Zhexiu was at fighting, it was impossible for him to kill so many enemies by himself, and none of them could escape.
Chen Changsheng also found it very strange, even if Zhe Xiu had advanced by leaps and bounds in the snow field in the past three years, he should not have reached this level.
"I have a companion." Zhexiu said.
As if to prove his words, a lot of howling wolves suddenly came from a distant mountain ridge.
"Some little guys from the tribe sneaked out and are following me now. In addition, there are also some acquaintances in Congzhou."
Zhexiu said to Chen Changsheng: "Human bears have always been cunning, we lay in ambush here for three days, and then..."
Chen Changsheng suddenly felt in a good mood and didn't pay attention to what he said later.
The wolf tribe's attitude towards Zhexiu seems to be changing, and he actually has acquaintances now.
Back then, this was unimaginable.
Zhexiu, who is destined to be the lone star of Tiansha, will have companions
It seems that those days at the Orthodox Academy brought some unforgettable changes to everyone who lived in it.
…
…
That night, the three of them stayed overnight in a piece of Gobi on the other side of the valley. There was no smell of blood in the wind, and in the blink of an eye, Zhexiu dug a slanted cave about three feet deep in the hard and cold ground. , the bottom of the cave is dry and warm, and there is no need to worry about being harassed by wild animals.
Zhexiu has lived like this since he was very young.
Nanke laid out the quilt at the bottom of the cave and lay down on it. Chen Changsheng took out the golden needle and began to treat her illness.
After the treatment was over, Nan Ke had already fallen asleep. He pulled the quilt up to her neck, then turned around and exited the hole.
Zhexiu squatted on the ground outside the cave, not knowing where to look.
He was still squatting habitually instead of sitting, like a lone wolf, ready to attack or flee at any time.
