Chapter 1, Sing to Wine
Xiaofei’s wife just came back from another place on July 31. She has been together for more than a year and is better than a newlywed marriage. She has been with her for three days and has not written any words, so she has less updates... Sorry!
~~~Divideline~~~
Two days after Lei Dongfeng and others entered the Helan Mountains, the temperature dropped sharply. After all, it was already mid-December, and the northwest of the empire had entered a cold winter. (Provided with the latest chapter reading >. . Far away from the warm Mediterranean Sea and the hot golden desert, winter inadvertently brought its coldness to invade.
"It's so cold." Some weak and weak women and injured soldiers had low fevers.
"The Helan Mountain is as high as altitude of several thousand meters. The section we walked is only the edge, but it is also nearly a thousand meters above sea level. Moreover, the forests are deep and the trees are dense, and the earth is not dispersed, so it is naturally a little cold." Li Yan explained to Lei Dongfeng.
"Well, Duan Zhao, go and take out the excess clothing from the supplies and distribute it to the injured, sick, old and weak." Lei Dongfeng ordered.
"Here!" After Li Long's death, Duan Zhao was appointed as the leader of the back team by Lei Dongfeng because he was steady and loyal. He was also responsible for the escort of the entire team's materials.
"We don't have to go to a higher level, otherwise the road ahead will be even more difficult." Li Yan said.
"Jingtao, there are still a few days left to go to where you live." Lei Dongfeng asked.
"At the current speed, if nothing unexpected happens, there will be two days left." Li Yan identified the direction and said.
"My sister is ill, you can't leave for too long, right?" Lei Dongfeng said with concern.
"Don't worry, brother, although my sister is in poor health, she has been practicing martial arts with me since she was a child. None of the ordinary men are her opponents. As long as she doesn't get sick, everything will be fine... Before leaving, I have purchased the herbs she needs..." Although Li Yan said this, the unconcealed worries between his eyebrows still betrayed his heart.
"The whole army will speed up, Jing Zhan, you can lead our team to explore the way forward!" Lei Dongfeng said...
"Brother." Li Yan was very grateful.
"Brother, are you so anxious to meet that little girl?" Jiang Zhuying said quietly.
"Uh, girl, forget it, you will understand my feelings in the future." Lei Dongfeng shook his head helplessly.
"Captain Lei, the traces of the rear camp have been cleaned up in the future, and no one should follow." Duan Zhao reported.
"Okay, continue to strengthen your vigilance, take care of the elderly and the weak, and don't let others fall behind." Lei Dongfeng ordered.
There were actually not many old and weak people who followed Lei Dongfeng and the others from Leng Feicui. Most of the sand thieves who lived by robbery were desperate people, so it was impossible to bring many families. All the women, children, elderly and weak people combined were less than a thousand.
Moreover, most of them are middle-aged women and men with thick hands and feet. Even the elderly are mostly sand thieves who were once powerful and very strong. The only thing they need to take care of are the injured people who were injured after several battles.
Although he is old-fashioned; Lin Qingping is very skilled in medical skills, but there are very few herbs available in the Golden Desert. Fortunately, the humidity is low, so more wounded people are not infected.
However, this situation has improved a lot since entering the Helan Mountain Area. There is no one in this mountain area for many years and is well protected. It can be said that there are medicinal herbs everywhere. The old Taoist has not had time to take a rest for several days, and finally most of the injured have been treated.
But the speed of action is not as good as the coming and going of all the cavalrymen of Lei Dongfeng and others a few days ago.
Along the way, Li Yan's brave performance has been passed down by word of mouth by more than 200 cavalrymen and spread throughout the team. Some admired, doubted, disdained, and eager to try.
Jing Zhan is one of them.
That day, Jing Zhan was a little unbelievable when he heard Sun Desheng come back and tell the story of Li Yan’s arrows three hundred steps away from the West and repelling the Western coalition.
I miss him, Jing Mingyang, was born in the forest. As soon as he could go down the ground, he touched his father's bow and arrow. He had shot and killed a wild wolf at the age of five.
When he was in his 10s, his father was injured by a tiger. Xiao Jingzhan hid in the morning and came out at night. He lurked in the mountains and forests for more than half a month, and killed the tiger with his eyes that was said to have been seen for five hundred years in one fell swoop.
Since then, Jing Zhan, who is alone, has even held the hard work he passed down from his ancestors when eating and sleeping. In more than ten years, he has broken many strings.
With talent and acquired self-abuse efforts, Jing Zhan has developed the kung fu that has been lurking invisible and far away without sniping.
Even so, Jing Zhan has never heard of anyone who can be able to arrows three hundred steps away, and it is very powerful.
Jing Zhan has seen and used Lei Dongfeng's treasure bow. He can barely open it, but he still does not have the best time to use it. Lei Dongfeng once wanted to give it to him, but Jing Zhan refused. After all, no matter how good the things are, they are not suitable for him.
Moreover, Jing Zhan’s inner pride is absolutely not allowed to use a bow that he cannot conquer.
But even though he pulled the bow and shot an arrow that day, Jing Zhan did not try to hit the target three hundred steps away. Therefore, Jing Zhan was not convinced!
Jing Zhan is a cold person and doesn't like talking, but he is extremely competitive and competitive in his heart. For a long time, among Lei Dongfeng, Jing Zhan's archery skills are of course the best, and perhaps only Jiang Zhuying can compete.
When the troops mentioned Jing Zhan's archery skills, they all secretly gave a thumbs up. However, since Li Yan joined the team, Jing Zhan heard all the words "Li Jingtao's archery skills are unparalleled, and he can make arrows three hundred steps away!", and what else "It seems to be better than the archery skills of Battalion Commander Jing."
...
Jing Zhan had always been resentful of Li Long's death and was disliked by anything. Hearing this, although he didn't show anything, the pride in his bones was ignited and he always wanted to find an opportunity to compete with Li Yan.
On the third night after entering Helan Mountain, after camping, the pursuers could not follow again, after arranging the posts to detect the cavalry, the idle people surrounded the campfire and drank to keep warm.
At that time, the sky was cloudy and the half-curved moon appeared and disappeared in the clouds. The area where everyone camped had already opened up into an open space, but the jungle around was extremely dark.
Jing Zhan did not drink with everyone, although he was not on duty tonight. In Jing Zhan's own words, "Wine is the most misleading thing, and a good archer must not drink with him."
Jing Zhan climbed up a tall larch alone, sat upright on the branch, stroked Zhang Zucheng's hard bow in his hand, and looked at the endless mountains in the distance.
"Xiao Jing, come down to have a few drinks with Master Dao!" Old Taoist Lin Qingping had already drunk several cups in a row, his face was rosy and his eyes were blurred.
"No, thank you brother Dao." Jing Zhan smiled. He also knew that the old man was afraid that he would be lonely, so he invited him.
"Mingyang, are you okay?" Lei Dongfeng asked with his head up.
"It's okay, Lauret cares about it." Jing Zhan said.
"Mingyang, I know you are sad. Now all the brothers are here. Come and drink this sip of wine to warm up your body, forget about the past, and work hard for the future together!" Lei Dongfeng threw a sheepskin wine bag on it.
"Take a sip, Xiao Jing." "Yes, Jingtou, how can the Han family beside him not drink?" "I didn't see Captain Jiang drinking."
Everyone comforted her under the tree.
