After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

With a thunderous cheer, Lishi Town was broken!

The victims rushed in one after another.

The victims who were far away from Lishi Town also quickened their pace, with surprise, fear and desperation on their faces! Because of the complicated emotions, their expressions looked a little weird.

Amidst the huge noise, the guards led by Boss Li formed a circle with slightly pointed heads and followed the flow of people, walking towards Lishi Town!

There was chaos at the city gate.

Boss Li struggled to make a path to the west through the crowd. They were not short of food, but of water.

So they had no plan to enter Lishi Town!

However, the victims have gone completely crazy. All they see is the food in the town, and they can't see Boss Li's blade!

"Quick! Follow up!"

"No, there are too many victims and we can't squeeze through!"

"Throw away some of the baggage!"

When we finally squeezed out from the disaster victims, we found that they had lost their direction!

In front of me is a plain with light yellow surface exposed, strange-shaped stones scattered among them, and a palm-wide stream flowing through the stone forest.

Looking around, apart from this stone forest, there were no other topographical features that could be used to identify the location.

Gu Nanxi and others were breathing heavily and resting on the spot.

Boss Li began to count the number of people. It was too chaotic just now and the protective circle was almost broken.

If it weren't for Old Man Geng and Alechuan's decisive actions, killing many victims and completely shocking them, the team would probably have been completely destroyed!

Boss Li rubbed his forehead and said, "There are only 300 people left."

Old man Geng was sitting on a rock and old lady Geng was rubbing his arm.

"That's good. Let's wait until night and use the stars to confirm the location."

Boss Li took a look around and found that Old Man Geng's family were all there, as well as Alechuan, and Escort Dong and his group were also together.

Most of those who got lost were servants and medical assistants. They were not in good physical condition and could not keep up with the speed of the team.

After arranging everything, Boss Li and Old Man Geng clinked glasses, drinking water as if it were wine.

"Old man Geng, do you think our master had anticipated the current situation? That's why he told us that night that the world is round and as long as we keep heading north, we will definitely reach the border!"

Old man Geng was sipping the water in small sips. Aunt Geng had already led the others, carrying wooden buckets, to the creek to fetch water.

The water in the stream was turbid and mixed with mud and sand. Fortunately, the team had sufficient supplies, and Aunt Geng even found linen and charcoal among them.

After several filtering procedures, only half a bucket of stream water may be left, which is better than nothing.

Old man Geng puffed on his pipe, his voice hoarse: "The world is round, and so is life. I returned to my hometown from the border, and I have to go back to the border from my hometown to put an end to the regrets of the past."

The universe is round, which sounds incredible at first glance.

If you taste it carefully, you will find that it contains countless philosophies.

The crowd was reluctant to waste the hard-earned water and continued to eat dry food, choking and rolling their eyes.

When the sun sets, everyone looks up at the night sky.

However, as if things didn't get worse, Hezhong County, which had been dry for several months, encountered cloudy weather for the first time.

The sky seemed to be splashed with thick ink, and layers of clouds weighed heavily on the horizon.

Along with the rumble of thunder, the air became humid and a downpour seemed to be coming soon.

At this moment, everyone's mood was hard to describe.

For Hezhong County, the rain after a long drought is a great joy!

However, such dark clouds cover the stars, making it impossible to tell the direction!

"Put up the tarpaulin! Put out all the water ladles and basins." Boss Li called everyone to prepare for the heavy rain.

The successive incidents brought the morale of the people, which had been raised with great difficulty, back to the bottom.

"This journey has been full of difficulties and problems. It's not a good sign."

There was a bodyguard whose hometown was on the shore of Dongting Lake. He took out a tortoise shell from his arms and threw it three times, but to no avail.

Escort Master Dong looked around and saw that they were all his own people, so he spoke up: "We brothers have parents and children to take care of, and we went out on this trip just to earn a few pieces of silver. Now that God has sent down heavy rain, it is obvious that he does not want us to continue north. We cannot defy God's will!"

The words were cryptic, but the twenty escorts had lived and eaten together for many years and had already developed many tacit understandings.

Every escort has one or two unique skills. Among them, the escorts from Dongting Lake are best at identifying directions!

What Master Dong meant was that he should hide his abilities!

"Don't worry, I understand!"

Boom!

A flash of lightning streaked across the night sky, raging across the sky like a dragon!

The world seemed to be still for a moment, and the next second, there seemed to be a big hole in the sky, and heavy rain poured down!

The dry earth greedily swallowed the rain water, and all things came back to life.

This heavy rain lasted for three days and three nights.

The palm-wide stream became as wide as an arm! The rushing water, carrying mud and sand, rushed through the stone forest.

On the first day of rain, everyone was excited and collected the rain water to wash themselves thoroughly.

On the second day after the rain, everyone stared at the rain curtain in a daze.

On the third day of the rain, Boss Li was getting anxious! The military situation was urgent, how could he delay here?

Boss Li asked everyone one by one: "Do you know how to tell the direction?"

"Boss, we rely on the night stars to determine our direction. Now it's raining heavily and we can't even see the moon."

"Boss, I have a poor sense of direction!"

After asking around, no one had a good solution. Boss Li looked like an eggplant hit by frost, wilting.

Escort Master Dong and the others looked at each other and were secretly proud of themselves.

"When Boss Li is at his wit's end, we'll tell him that we have the ability to identify directions, but the weather is not favorable and there is a high possibility that we will make mistakes!"

“When the time comes, Lao Si, you will deliberately take him to the southwest and bypass the two counties!”

"That's right, we have to hurry! Taking a longer route will only take an extra half month, but it's much safer."

"I think this heavy rain will only last for two more days. Tomorrow, you go and recommend yourself, Old Four!"

Escort Dong had his own plan in mind. They were really frightened by the victims!

I just want to make money, not work hard!

They didn't want to do anything else but to guide Boss Li away from the two counties of Hezhong and Henan, and away from the victims.

Maybe, you can make a great contribution and get some rewards.

After spending some time together, they discovered that the famous wife of Marquis Yongchang was just a lady from a wealthy family who had never traveled far.

She doesn't like to take power and trusts her subordinates very much!

Escort Master Dong pondered for a long time in his mind and made sure that there were no omissions in this plan. Even if it failed in the end, there would be no loss!

"Old Four, think of an excuse first and go tomorrow!"

At this time, Boss Li, with the idea of ​​trying his luck, ran to knock on Gu Nanxi's carriage door and said, "Master, do you have a way to tell the direction?"

To be honest, Boss Li didn't hold out any hope at all.
