It was already half an hour after Zhou Yunshu, Yan Shilei and the others finished discussing their plans to go up the mountain tomorrow.
After Yan Shilei and his party left, Wei Zhong sat there and did not move.
Zhou Yunshu looked at Wei Zhong who seemed to have something to say and said, "Is there anything else?"
"Zhou...it's okay."
Everything was his own guess, and the longer he spent with Zhou Yunshu, the less he dared to underestimate Zhou Yunshu. What if she found out that she was the prince's man and thought that his prince still had his old love for her.
Zhou Yunshu looked at Wei Zhong speechlessly, who put on an ice face every time he was worried, "Go back and rest early if you have nothing to do."
"good."
After Wei Zhong left, Zhou Yunshu said to Feng Xujie beside him: "I will let you go to the patrol team to practice during this period."
Feng Xujie nodded. He was already fourteen, and many teenagers of this age in the team had joined the patrol.
"Okay third brother."
"I will let Wei Zhong take you, and you study hard by his side." Zhou Yunshu looked at Feng Xujie who nodded seriously and said, "By the way, keep an eye on him for me."
"Staring at him?" Feng Xujie was confused.
"Well, if there's anything wrong with him, tell me in time."
Feng Xujie thought of Wei Zhong's origin, looked at Zhou Yunshu's plan, and pursed his lips. Did she discover something?
Zhou Yunshu looked at Feng Xujie and said, "Xiaojie, you should know that we are together, right?"
Feng Xujie looked at Zhou Yunshu's clear eyes and nodded tightly in his heart: "I understand, third brother."
"good."
When Zhou Yunshu confessed to Feng Xujie, she did not hide it from Hu Zi and the others.
After getting in touch with each other during this period, Huzi and the other three were quite strict. Since she decided to let the three of them become her own, she would not hide some things from them.
After breakfast the next morning after morning practice, Yan Shilei and his team pushed their luggage to the team in the dense morning mist.
The mules and donkeys in their village had long since disappeared. To make things easier, they gave the team 500 kilograms of grain and would eat with the team in the future.
In addition, the people from Shanxia Village pushed three carts filled with their own luggage.
The mountain fog has not yet faded, so the team cannot enter the mountain. Otherwise, they, a group of people who have never been to Anshan, will easily get lost and even fall into ravines and cliffs.
The mountain fog gradually dispersed, and the sun slowly enveloped Anshan. From a distance, it seemed to be covered with a layer of golden gauze, gentle and romantic.
Under the leadership of Yan Shilei, everyone walked slowly towards Anshan Mountain. Although there was still some moisture in the forest and the mountain road was a little slippery, it was okay to be careful.
The mountain road is rugged and narrow, and in some places it can only accommodate a mule cart. This is the spacious mountain road that Yan Shilei specially found.
In order to prevent the mule and donkey carts from accidentally falling into ravines or large pits covered by thorns and shrubs, they could usually cover forty or fifty miles a day, but now they could not even cover half of it.
What was originally a loose square formation turned into a long curve, constantly winding through the mountains and forests. Sometimes people couldn't see clearly what was going on in front of and behind them, and could only follow the people in front of them.
Not only that, the time spent traveling in the mountains is less than the time spent traveling outside.
You can't walk when there's mountain fog in the morning, and it's hard to move around when it's dark and you can't see clearly. This is not a plain, any kind of accident can happen in the mountains and forests.
On the first day when we entered the mountains, everyone was a little uncomfortable. It was common to accidentally sprain your feet. There were even cases where the mule cart accidentally fell to the ground with luggage. All these required help from the patrol team around us.
Fortunately, although minor accidents continued, there were no major casualties, but the overall mood of the team was not very good.
The fire at night is lit by the patrol team. Before lighting, they will first clean up the nearby branches and leaves, and then pile some dust to avoid accidentally starting a fire.
Because the traveling time has become shorter, the previous breakfast and lunch have become breakfast and dinner, and the middle time is spent on traveling.
After the first few days of adaptation, the people in the team gradually adapted to the days of rushing in the mountains, and even found a lot of fun in it.
Some people found persimmons hanging on the branches; some found red dates on the trees; some even shot rabbits.
All these unexpected gains belong to themselves, so many people will go together to look for something to eat nearby during their breaks. As long as they don't leave too far, don't light a fire, and don't travel alone, Zhou Yunshu and Du Laozhuang don't strictly prohibit it.
You must give people some time to relax, otherwise problems will arise if they are restrained for a long time. Even Zhou Yunshu took Huzi and the three of them out hunting.
Huzi and the other three have average skills and can deal with ordinary people, but when they encounter Wei Zhong's men, they have no power to fight back.
Fortunately, they have good potential, especially Huzi, who is strong and smart, and is good at fighting. If he is well trained, he will become a fierce general.
After being "educated" by Chunque, who was born with supernatural powers and practiced martial arts since childhood, Huzi and the other three have been practicing martial arts behind Chunque whenever they have time recently, as if they treat Chunque as half of their master.
The other master is Zhou Yunshu. Anyway, teaching one child every day is teaching, teaching four or five, and teaching eight or nine is also teaching. Therefore, in addition to practicing martial arts with Chunque every day, the three Huzis also follow Luo Xiaoshan, Du Xing and those children. Behind him was Zhou Yunshu, who was reading.
Life like this was much harder than when they were in Anshan County before, but they felt at ease and even had an indescribable sense of belonging.
Zhou Yunshu was very good at archery. The rabbits and pheasants carried by Huzi and the others were all brought by Zhou Yunshu. They also learned archery from Chunque, but they could only shoot arrows.
The sky was getting dark, and the golden and dark green branches and leaves slowly disappeared into the darkness. Zhou Yunshu listened to the chirping of birds and insects around her, and suddenly drew the bow string to full capacity and shot in one direction.
Hound is the youngest and most lively of the three Huzis. When he saw something shot by Zhou Yunshu, he immediately ran over to pick it up.
"Boss, it's a pigeon!"
…
Wei Zhong frowned when he heard someone from the patrol say that it was time for roll call, but six people were missing from the team.
Especially among those who have not returned are Du Huairou, who was rescued in the ruined temple last time, and Wan Liqing, who asked for their protection.
Originally, he didn't want to go to Zhou Yunshu about this matter, because Zhou Yunshu made it very clear to the team when he first went up the mountain. It was okay to go out, but he had to return to the team before roll call in the evening, otherwise the team would not care if something happened.
But Liu Fuyi kept mumbling beside him, begging him to let the patrol team go out to search. Wei Zhong was so annoyed by him that he decided to talk to Zhou Yunshu.
As a result, as soon as he came over and before he could say anything, he saw the pigeon feathers beside the fire and the roasted pigeon on the fire.
Wei Zhong:......
This pigeon looks inexplicably familiar.
