The Peerless Double Pride System in Another World

Chapter 272 Abandoned Village
It's a pity that the first step of this road of exploration has been missed.

Seeing that there were only some dilapidated thatched cottages left in front of her, a barren village that seemed to have been looted, Guo Lijuan kept repeating softly in disbelief: "Impossible, how could...it's impossible..."

Seeing Guo Lijuan staggering towards the abandoned village, Jiang Qianyu nodded sideways, and Ji Xiaochan immediately followed up to take care of her.

Looking up at the mountains that seemed to be close in front of him, Jiang Qianyu said with a slightly heavy voice: "I didn't expect the Yuechuan people to be so ruthless. They didn't even leave any villages at the foot of the mountain that are connected to the outside world. According to Lijuan, there are also villages in this village." It has a history of nearly a hundred years."

"It's not a big deal to just move to another place. For the Yuechuan tribe, it may be more cordial to go back to Dashan." Xie Yinghua frowned and said: "However, this village is missing, and I want to find suitable guides and informants. People, it's difficult."

Jiang Qianyu also nodded in a troubled manner.This village is where Guo Lijuan lived when she was a child. After all, she is an abandoned baby, not from her own clan. It is still very difficult for Aunt Teng, who was still weak at the time, to bring her into the mountains to raise her.But now that Guo Lijuan finally came here based on her childhood memories, she looks like this, what should she do next?
After a while, Guo Lijuan finally walked out of the abandoned village in a daze, while Ji Xiaochan, who was following her, shook her head, indicating that she hadn't found anything.

"Young master, why don't we go back to the county first, and then look for the nearby villages belonging to Yanguo. Since they are all in the same area, there must be some overlap." Xie Yinghua suggested, stroking his beard.

"It's useless." Although Guo Lijuan was depressed, she still had a clear mind about the matter: "Even if the villagers in the surrounding villages know some other hunting trails at most, they definitely don't match the route of the Yuechuan people. Above. In order to ensure the stability of the border, the Yan royal family’s attitude towards the Yuechuan people has always been indifferent. Once there is a conflict, the final judgment is often in favor of the Yuechuan people. Over time, most people are quite alienated from the Yuechuan people, let alone Let’s talk about the possibility of finding a camp in the mountains.”

The cheating ethnic policy can be seen everywhere...

Jiang Qianyu smiled mockingly, and said, "Since that's the case, the Yuechuan tribe should be very concerned about their own territory, right? Or should I say, it's about what they think is their own territory."

Guo Lijuan was stunned, and finally figured out the meaning of the second sentence. She felt displeased, but she couldn't refute it.If the land on the mountain can be regarded as being self-reliant by the Yuechuan people, then the flat land below the mountain should be shared by both the people of Yanguo and the Yuechuan people.

However, the concession of the royal family led the Yuechuan tribe to occupy a large area of ​​land at the foot of the mountain. In the past few years, they have almost completely closed off contact with the outside world. — Don’t give up for nothing, let alone for such a simple existence of villagers, land is the greatest wealth.It can be abandoned for such a long time, but it has never been taken away, and there are even no people in the surrounding area. Needless to say, it must be the means of the Yuechuan tribe, forcing the people of Yanguo not to approach.

"But in this case, I have a way." Jiang Qianyu touched his chin, revealing a cunning smile. "Come on, sort out an open space in the village and pile up firewood. Tonight... let's camp!"

…………

At the foot of the mountain in summer night, although it is not too hot and unbearable, it will not have any piercing coolness. Occasionally, the mountain wind blows through, and it is full of comfort. It is even more pleasant to lie on the ground and look at the sky full of stars. very.

However, in a certain open space in this abandoned village, a large pile of firewood was stacked high, and the tongue of fire burning along the firewood was even brighter, making a slight "crackling" sound constantly.

Perhaps it was because of the extra heat in the summer night that the two sitting around were far apart.

"Lijuan, you can go to bed first, I'm enough here, keep your spirits up, if everything goes well tonight, we can start tomorrow." Jiang Qianyu got up and fiddled with the scattered dead branches in the salary rack, and returned Sitting back on the ground, he seemed to say something casually.

Guo Lijuan hugged her knees with her hands and buried her chin in the shadows. Hearing Jiang Qianyu's words, she raised her head a little, then lowered her head again, and said softly: "They can even abandon this village, I don't know Will it still be the people I know... Your plan is very good, but we have to be careful ourselves."

Jiang Qianyu was silent for a moment, and said with a consoling smile: "Anyway, I have to sleep. Although the Yuechuan people have changed a lot now, it shouldn't be too late if you want to carelessly ignore human life. Don't worry too much. In this way Come on, I'll take a nap first, and you'll wake me up in the middle of the night."

Counting the time at this moment, it is still early, even if both of them have just finished their evening class, they are far from the point where they can sleep well.Not to mention the awkward atmosphere, it is difficult to fall asleep with the warmth of the bright fire.

But in the second half of the night, my body was slightly cold and I was sleepy, and I fell asleep after changing jobs.

Guo Lijuan knew that this was Jiang Qianyu's silent care, but now, there was no joy in her heart, and instead, there was a touch of bitterness.

Thinking wildly in my heart, the effect of this vigil will naturally be greatly reduced, unless it is a horse bandit rushing over swaggeringly or something, but if someone who is a bit secretive and cautious approaches, in Guo Lijuan's state, it is really difficult to find out.

At this moment, two cat-legged figures at the edge of the village walked quickly and familiarly among the abandoned houses, and kept approaching the center of the fire source. When they saw a young man lying on the ground next to the fire, he fell asleep With a restless woman sitting with her knees hugged, the two looked at each other suspiciously, and then went back the same way silently.

"There's only this one man and one woman, are they just passing by?" After leaving the village a few miles away, a young man straightened up and asked doubtfully.

"If there is anything to guess, just report it truthfully." Another young man replied angrily.

The costumes of the Yuechuan nationality are actually based on the costumes of the Chinese nationality, and all the excess fabric is cut to make the clothes stick to the skin tightly, so that when walking in the mountains and forests, unnecessary hanging and rubbing can be avoided.After thousands of years of evolution, the long-sleeved style originally used to prevent mosquitoes has gradually become short-sleeved or even sleeveless due to habit.

However, the outfits of the two people in front of them still retained the characteristics of long-sleeved martial arts uniforms.

Seeing the discontented expression of his companions beside him, the first young man couldn't help but sighed and said, "Ah Qiang, my heart aches for the destruction of the village, but what can I do? There's no need to make things difficult for me."

Ah Qiang opened his mouth angrily, but in the end he could only say "Oh!": "Akun, I don't want to argue with you anymore, let's go!"

Under the dark night, the two walked without slowing down, and after driving a few miles, they entered the forest, and the whole journey was silent.

For the Yuechuan people who grew up in this area, this is nothing more than pediatrics. It can even be said that they are completely natural jungle guerrillas, with top-notch reconnaissance, anti-reconnaissance, combat, and transfer capabilities.

However, this only applies to the category of soldiers.

The two of them didn't notice at all that two figures followed them covertly half a mile away.

Listening to the sound of the wind, breathing the breath of the wind, for Xie Yinghua at the Huang level, this kind of night is the best cover for him. As long as the distance is far enough, the other party will not be able to find him.If it is a real follow-up... As a decent head, it is obvious that this skill is definitely not good enough.

As for Ji Xiaochan who followed behind, the world of trees in the mountains and forests was considered half of her home field.
