Hearing Caiwei say the names Lao Jingou and Yanzhigou, Gu Jingzhi thought they were very similar and hugged her excitedly, "Caiwei, Caiwei, it's right, it's right!"
Two quarters of an hour passed quickly, and Ji Kuo's voice ordering the whole team rang out in the distance. Gu Jingzhi picked her up and said, "Read "Xu Han's Travels" again tonight and see if you can find any clues." He ran back and returned. to the team.
The dust is still flying, the cold wind is still howling, and the exile team is still running on the official road of Yanmen Mountain.
Sweat soaked the clothes on the back, and after cooling, it stuck to the body, which was particularly uncomfortable. The officials and prisoners worked together. Those who gathered firewood, made fires, buried pots to make rice, and cut down small trees all took action. His grandma said, it’s such a cold day, whoever stays alone will be in a panic.
Ji Kuo directed everyone to tie branches as thick as a child's arms horizontally to the adjacent big tree. They were arranged in several dense rows to block the wind and prevent wild beasts.
At this time, we are close to the hinterland of Yanmen Mountain, far away from where people live. Wild beasts in the deep mountains and old forests sometimes go for a walk near the official road. By chance, they will meet one or two humans. Such delicious food is just in time to pounce on them. Kill and enjoy.
With the number of prisoners and the Gu family's entourage, the team is huge. The scent of human flesh is wafting in the ancient dense forest. It would be terrible if a beast smells it and comes looking for it!
In order to tie the branches to the big tree, hay must be used as rope. Ji Kuo saw a few short prisoners warming themselves next to the fire and shouted: "Those children, go find hay, hurry up! Damn it!" , we are all busy, you little brats dare to warm yourself by the fire!"
The children all turned around, and Gu Jingzhi's concubine and Gu Jingchao's concubine were among them. Oh my god! Ji Kuo's heart trembled with fright, and he quickly put on a smiling face, "Miss Caiwei, Miss Cailian, you two continue baking, just a few of them will be enough!"
He touched his neck with lingering fear. Yang Laoqi was strangled by Gu Jingchao because he wanted to hit Caiwei. Even now, he is still holding his neck every day and dare not make any big movements. He can't do it without holding back. Whenever he makes a move, his bones will ache.
How could an old aunt in her thirties tolerate letting a group of children work while she and Cai Lian were left alone? Pulling the lotus picker, she ran towards the woods, followed by six or seven little babies of different heights, like an old hen leading a group of chickens looking for food.
They searched around and found some hay, many short and not much long. To make ropes, it must be as long as straw. "Collecting lotus, I will go to the east to have a look. You take them to the west to find it. Don't leave." It’s too far.”
Cai Lian was timid and had no independent opinions, so he listened to her and took the children to the west.
Caiwei ran to the east quickly, stopped behind a big rock, and took out a few bundles of straw from the space, "Cailian, Cailian, come here quickly, there is grass!"
Cai Lian heard the shouting and took the lead to come here. Looking in the direction of Cai Wei's fingers, four or five bundles of straw were neatly lying under the stone.
Cai Lian grew up in the countryside and knew that there would be no straw in this place, but she was timid and didn't say much. These children were born into wealthy families, and they were all young masters and ladies who were indifferent to food and work. There was no pressure to trick them into picking weeds.
The children carried the straw in their hands and carried it on their backs. When they arrived at the team's location, the straw was in a mess and no longer as neat as before. Of course, none of these people knew that it was straw and not ordinary weeds.
As night falls, in the safe circle created by Ji Kuo's leadership, the horses sleep peacefully and the people fall asleep.
Caiwei in the tent had already entered the space, holding "Xu Han's Travels" and reading it carefully. Hey, there really is a Linglong Town.
She pointed it out to Gu Jingzhi, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief. With the approximate range, a gold mine should be found within a hundred miles. If the gold mine is found, can Prince Xian's gold hiding place be far away?
The master and servant were relieved and ready to sleep happily. Suddenly Gu Jingzhi sat up and flew out of the tent, followed closely by a black iron tower.
In the silent night, there was a shrill wolf howl, "Woo-Aw", and then countless wolf howls resounded in the empty mountain forest, "Woo-Aw, Woo-Aw, Woo-Aw...", the sound shook the whole place and was creepy.
Cai Lian came over and shook Cai Wei's hand, raised her head and said to the doctor: "Mom, you stay with Cai Wei, I'll go outside to see Jing Chao!" Her figure was extremely strong, she turned around and walked out in a few steps. In the tent, Caiwei's anxious shout came from behind her, "Get a weapon!"
I happened to see a police officer holding a long knife in his hand, shaking his body, hiding behind a carriage, and looking out.
Cai Lian was short, jumped up, slashed the back of his neck with a knife with her left hand, grabbed the knife with her right hand, and put him down on the ground. The series of actions were done in one go without any sloppiness.
If Caiwei saw this scene, she would definitely exclaim: This is not the timid and timid little maid Cai Lian, she is clearly a heroic and heroic female knight!
