Chapter 81 Adventure through the two surrounding mountains
Ji Wudi stood up and carried a bag. The store owner just came to collect the silver on the table. So Ji Wudi, who was about to leave, suddenly turned around and asked the store owner, "Can you ask, how far is this place from Xiangyang Mansion? How to get there?"
"Kei, this place is about a hundred miles away from Xiangyang Prefecture. Just follow this road, but if you walk, it will probably take four or five days!" The store owner glanced at Ji Wudi and said, "I suggest you find a place to buy a horse instead of foot strength. Maybe it is not necessarily possible to arrive faster!"
"Look at what the store said, buying horses to replace foot strength will definitely lead to Xiangyang Mansion soon, why isn't it?" Ji Wudi heard that the store seemed to have something in his words, so he said to the store with a smile.
"The guest official is probably a foreigner, so he doesn't know much about this place. When he goes to Xiangyang Prefecture, he must pass through two surrounding mountains. However, the bandits in the two surrounding mountains are serious, and the local government office has sent troops to encircle and suppress, but most of them return without success. Therefore, the risk here is too great. Even if the guest official has a horse, it may not be able to get through!" The store owner said it clearly. Because Ji Wudi is a foreigner and does not know the situation, he explained so clearly to Ji Wudi.
"Then are there any other way to pass?" Ji Wudi felt half-hearted when he heard this. You know, he had just run out of the wolf nest of the palace. If he fell into the tiger's mouth of Liangwei Mountain, would he still have a chance to live?
Therefore, he could only hope that the store owner would point him other roads to see if there were any other roads to bypass the two surrounding mountains. As long as he could bypass the two surrounding mountains, he could safely arrive at Xiangyang Prefecture, and it didn't matter if he took more time.
After all, things are done for others, but their lives are their own. There is no need for him to lose his life for this matter.
"There is no other way to go. I would like to advise the customer to give up this trip and go back home!" The shop owner immediately said, there is only one road here to go to Xiangyang Prefecture, and there are no other roads, so there are only two roads that are still in front of Ji Wudi. The first is to cross the two mountains and go to Xiangyang Prefecture and bear all the dangers.
The second way is to return the same way, give up this trip to Xiangyang Prefecture, and ensure your life's safety.
After saying this, the store started to pack up the table and ignored Ji Wudi anymore. After all, whether to go or not is not his decision, everything depends on Ji Wudi himself.
Ji Wudi thought for a long time, and many times he thought about ignoring the emperor's instructions and went back to Zuomaguan to find Xueying and his brothers, and fought with soldiers from the northern country to defend their country on the front line. It was always easier than this.
But he was always ruthless and did this. After all, the emperor was trapped in the deep palace and needed someone to save him. When he needed help the most, the emperor chose to trust him. If he failed the emperor's instructions, wouldn't it be too irresponsible to have a single one?
And if you do that, in addition to showing that he is timid and afraid of death, he is also not just that he does not keep his promises. He may not even be able to look down on himself in such a way.
If the emperor had something happened to him because of this, even if he lived, he would probably have to live in the guilt of being unable to sleep or eat in the future.
That kind of life is definitely not the life he wants to live, so when he thinks of this, he can't care about anything else. He immediately took the bag in his hand, left the market, and followed the route pointed by the store before.
Seeing Ji Wudi leaving the breakfast stall and walking towards the road leaving the market, Lin Wei and the others hiding aside immediately chased after him. Seeing this attitude, they wanted to take action in a place with few people, and directly defeated Ji Wudi, and then snatched away the secret edict and reported to Concubine Jing.
But just as Lin Wei and the others were following, the four armored soldiers also let go of the food they had not finished, threw the money on the table, and followed closely behind.
Of course, Ji Wudi had no way to find that there were two people chasing him behind him, but he was rushing forward and didn't even think about anything.
I don’t know how long I walked, two mountains close together appeared in front of the road in front of me, and the path passed through the middle of these two mountains.
When you walk into the path, you will see the mountains on both sides of the road. It is like being surrounded by two mountains, and there are not many gaps to see outside.
"Is this the two-encircled mountains?" Ji Wudi murmured in his heart, and he couldn't help feeling cold on his vest, and the temperature of his hands and feet suddenly dropped a lot.
He didn't buy horses for transportation because he knew that even if he had a horse, it would be useless, so he would rather save some money and walk over by himself.
At this time, he could only hear the footsteps of himself walking, and there was no other sound around him, so quiet that he was a little afraid of people.
Suddenly, a group of people jumped out of Ji Wudi's surroundings. They were wearing armor and holding long swords, pointing directly at Ji Wudi's side. Then Lin Wei appeared in front of Ji Wudi.
Ji Wudi was originally worried that the bandits would come out to find a problem, but he didn't expect that at this time, the bandits in Liangwei Mountain appeared, but the bandits in Daliang Tangtang National Master Lin Wei. He really didn't know whether he was lucky or bad.
"Master Sun, hand over the things?" Lin Wei saw that his people had surrounded Ji Wudi, so he walked up to Ji Wudi and said to Ji Wudi.
At this time, in Lin Wei's opinion, Ji Wudi had no second choice at all, so he could only hand over what he wanted, otherwise there would be only a dead end to wait for Ji Wudi.
"What? I don't have it!" Ji Wudi said coldly. If he handed over the secret edict at this time, the other party would definitely kill him, because Jing Fei would never allow the secret edict to leak a word, but Ji Wudi was the only person who had seen the secret edict. Only by killing Ji Wudi can he ensure that the secret edict is not leaked.
Ji Wudi is not a fool. Of course, he knows how powerful it is, so he will never admit that he will have an emperor's secret edict on him.
"Will you take the risk of going to Xiangyang Mansion without a secret edict?" Lin Wei obviously didn't believe this nonsense, so he said to Ji Wudi in question, "I'm afraid the emperor wants you to contact the King of Qingjiang Jiang Yunong and rescue the emperor in the palace?"
Lin Wei had already guessed a rough idea, so he could not believe the nonsense that Ji Wudi said more, and he had to force Ji Wudi to confess honestly.
"I don't know what you are talking about!" Ji Wudi immediately denied, "If you want to do something here, I think you should think clearly whose territory this is, otherwise you will be afraid that you will be unable to deal with it if you cause trouble!"
