Crossing town house man and wife

For this trip, Yan Heng originally planned to go to the frontier where the Great Wall is located to supervise the battle, and then leave for western Liaoning after the frontier is stabilized.

But after arriving at the Great Wall, Yan Heng unexpectedly learned that there was no war at all this year. Both Donghu and Fuyu were honest and had no intention of invading south. Only some scattered mountain people came to seek deals after the snow stopped. Exchange wild game and frontier troops for briquettes.

After careful questioning, Yan Heng learned that several officers stationed in the garrison felt that the briquettes distributed from above were too much to be consumed if they just traded with the herdsmen, so they exchanged wild game and medicinal materials with the surrounding mountain people without authorization.

Of course, honeycomb is better than ordinary wood. It has a high temperature and burns for a long time. Even if it snows, it will not be as difficult to ignite as wood.It happened to be severe cold and heavy snow this year, and burning wood alone was not enough. Some mountain people who had used briquettes ran over in the cold wind, wanting to exchange some briquettes for the winter.

Disobedience and disobedience are taboos in the army. Once Yan Heng intervened, those officers and their subordinates who traded with the mountain people without authorization would not escape punishment. Even if Yan Heng didn't want their lives, he would at least whip them a few times. To serve as a warning to others.

Because of this, Yan Heng finally understood the reason why Donghu and Fuyu didn't come to harass him.

Herdsmen live in tents, which can be rebuilt at any time even if they are crushed by snow, but in the past, heavy snow will not only collapse the tents, but also freeze the cattle and sheep to death.However, there are no trees on the grasslands, and most herdsmen can only use cow dung as fuel. Once the cattle and sheep die, the fuel supply will be cut off, and both heating and cooking will become problems.Even if the herdsmen can be cruel enough to drink blood, they can't bite the frozen cattle and sheep.Facing hunger and cold, they had only one way to invade the south.

But in this life, with stoves and briquettes, even if the cattle and sheep still freeze to death, the herdsmen have the hope of surviving. Naturally, they will not take the risk of being frozen to death halfway to fight for their lives. Happen again this season.

After figuring out the cause and effect, Yan Heng couldn't be happy at all.

He had been preparing for this winter for a long time, and he was dispatching troops and raising supplies, but in the end it was in vain? !

You can also listen to the sound and see the splash when you are swimming in the water!

Depressed, Yan Heng could only use Wu Ming to comfort himself——

If there is no more chaos in Liaoxi in this life, then he doesn't need to leave Wu Ming, let alone worry that he will be taken away by his master who is an outsider.

But it turns out that even if many butterflies flap their wings together, it is not easy to blow a typhoon.

Yan Heng was hesitating whether to continue to act according to the plan, or give up his thoughts and return to Xiangping, when Udong flew over from Xiangping and brought him a letter for help from the Governor of Liaoxi County.

In this plan, Yan Heng used Udon as a trump card, deliberately took it to the border, and then released it back to Xiangping, just to help it find its way, so as to serve as a messenger in this winter, so that he can conquer Remote control the whole world on the way.

Since Wu Ming promised to teach Udon spells, he has taken the time to give advice. However, Wu Ming is not a good teacher, and Udon is not a good student. After a few months, he only learned one skill, and he can only do it while flying. in the display.

It was precisely because of learning this spell that Wu Ming agreed to let Udon act as the messenger.

After all, crows are not birds that are good at long-distance flying. If it weren't for the magic that shrinks the ground to an inch as an accelerator, no matter how smart Udon is, he would not be able to take on the important task of delivering messages.

However, flying too fast is not necessarily a good thing.

Yan Heng took the bag containing the letter from Udong's neck and took a look, and soon found that the two letters that Udong brought back were from Liaoxi and the other from Yao Zhong.But judging from the time indicated in Yao Zhong's letter, it only took less than an hour for Udon to deliver the letter from Xiangping to here.

Even a falcon can't reach this speed, can it?

Yan Heng immediately glanced at Wu Ming.

Wu Ming was glad that he had already vaccinated Yan Heng, otherwise, there would be no way to explain what happened today, so he coughed lightly and whispered next to Yan Heng: "The crow on your family's ancestral hall It’s already a good one, I just pointed it out.”

"What else does it have?" Yan Heng asked.

"No more." Wu Ming shook his head, "It's just flying fast, and it can't hold on for too long—you can't stand up right now without looking at it?"

Yan Heng turned his head to look, only to notice that Wu Dong had already slumped on the desk like a nest.

Although Udon has become a spirit, he doesn't know any serious cultivation methods. He only accumulates a little spiritual energy by relying on instinct and intuition, and it consumes seventy-seven eighty-eight eighty-eight with one spell.This time, it was only thinking about how to show off its speed. It used the spell of shrinking the ground twice in one breath. As a result, it was over-consumed and half dead from exhaustion. At this moment, it didn't even have the strength to drink water. .

Seeing that it was so tired, Yan Heng couldn't bear it, so he called his attendants to carry Udon down to drink and feed it.

Wu Ming said worriedly, "Feed less, don't overwhelm it!"

Udon immediately flapped his wings twice, shouting with the last bit of strength: "Bad guy! Bad guy!"

"Shut up, talk too much and you'll be stewed!" Wu Ming rolled his eyes.

Yan Heng quickly coughed lightly, and told the attendants to take Udon away quickly.

The letter asking for help arrived on time, and all actions were carried out step by step according to plan.

That night, Yan Heng led people away from the inspection team and rushed towards the scheduled assembly point.Udon, who hadn't fully recovered, was also stuffed into the arms of a guard and taken away together.

Before leaving, Yan Heng forced Wu Ming to swear to the sky that even if his master master came to him, he would never leave before Yan Heng came back to reunite with him.

Wu Ming was helpless, "I don't believe in God at all, even if I swear it's useless!"

"Then you go with me, anyway, you have magical protection, you can always protect yourself." Yan Heng said immediately, "It's just an extra horse."

"...I'll swear."

Seeing Yan Heng away with back pain, Wu Ming immediately fell asleep.

But sleeping until midnight, a strange feeling invaded the soul, Wu Ming suddenly opened his eyes, and then found that he was unable to move as if he had encountered a ghost pressing the bed.

Before Wu Ming managed to break free, an unpopular voice sounded faintly in the darkness——

"No wonder people in the world often say that after marrying a daughter-in-law, they forget their mother. They really do not deceive me."

"Damn, whose old lady are you?!" Wu Ming rolled his eyes, and didn't bother himself, he just yelled, "You old merchant ghost, quickly undo the spell for me! You don't know how scary people are!" Can it scare people to death?"

"Are you human?" It was the elusive old ghost Shang who spoke in the dark. When he heard Wu Ming call out his nickname, he immediately walked slowly to the bed and looked down at Wu Ming condescendingly, "We have an appointment in Xiangyang. See you, what are you doing here?"

"Anyway, it's not that you can't find me, it doesn't matter where I am." Seeing that the old ghost Shang didn't intend to do anything, Wu Ming had to rely on himself, use his spiritual power, break free from the bondage set by the old ghost Shang, and then let himself go Turned over and sat up.

Old Ghost Shang raised the corner of his mouth and said with a sneer, "It seems that your life is going too smoothly, and you don't even have the most basic vigilance."

I'm just overtired!

Wu Ming could only mutter something in his heart, then crossed his legs, stared and said, "You haven't heard from me all this time, so I thought you wouldn't be coming!"

"They said they would come to see you in January, so what news should I send you?" Old Ghost Shang snorted coldly, "It's you, it's rare that you can spend a warm winter on the warm kang, why can't you live comfortably? Run out to catch the cold?"

"Of course there is a reason." Wu Ming rubbed his nose embarrassingly, and asked, "What have you been doing all this time, have you found Old Ghost Xia?"

"I found it." Shang Laogui said indifferently, "I am just as leisurely as you, and my life is so happy."

Uh, why is this tone not quite right?

Wu Ming blinked, and asked tentatively, "Could it be that Old Ghost Xia has a new love?"

"Hehe." Old Ghost Shang smiled lightly, his eyes gouged out like a knife.

Wu Ming shrank his neck, knowing that he had guessed right, but then he became confused again.

Shang Laogui has always been so rational that he is inhuman, and he will never be like Yan Heng who can't even tell who the people around him are, let alone do stupid things like empathy.

Old Ghost Shang is annoyed, and he is really annoyed. This can only show one thing——

"Is that really Old Ghost Xia?" Wu Ming blurted out.

"Don't you think I'll recognize the wrong person?" Shang Laogui laughed sarcastically, "I've been with him for 4000 years, even if he's attached to a pig, I can still recognize him from the pigsty!"

"Hehe." Wu Ming really didn't know what to say, so he could only change the subject, "Why did he also pass through? Could it be because of the tomb of the First Emperor?"

"Maybe yes, maybe not." Shang Laogui's answer was ambiguous.

Wu Ming was taken aback for a moment, "Didn't you ask him?"

"I'm not interested in talking to him anymore." Old Ghost Shang said indifferently.

Wu Ming twitched the corner of his mouth, not knowing whether to show sympathy for Old Ghost Xia or understanding for Old Ghost Shang.

The old ghost Shang continued: "Although I don't know how Xia Bo came here, I know that the fate here has been completely messed up. Travelers like Xia Bo and you and me are by no means an exception."

"Qin Sanshi is one, but he seems to be an ordinary person, not a monk like you and me." Wu Ming said, "I heard from Yan Heng that - er, it's my bed partner - and there is another person named Lu Liang. My son is probably in Longxi, and she should also be a time traveler. Also, there is not only time travel here, but also rebirth, and there is more than one of them!"

"Your so-called bed partner can't be one of them?" Old Ghost Shang asked with raised eyebrows.

"You guessed it all, why are you asking?" Wu Ming curled his lips, "Speaking of which, it's time travel and rebirth, what's going on here?"

"Maybe it's Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly." Old Ghost Shang said, "It's just that we have all become butterflies."

"Then how do we go back and find Zhuang Zhou here?" Wu Ming asked.

"You still want to go back?" Shang Laogui looked at Wu Ming meaningfully, "I thought you couldn't think of leaving anymore!"

"Aren't you not in a hurry and not getting angry? Could it be that you have a new love too?" Wu Ming replied.

"I'm not that boring." Old Ghost Shang snorted.

"Then why did you come to me now?" Wu Ming asked, "With your ability to travel thousands of miles a day, and your destiny chart to guide you, how could it take you so long to find Old Ghost Xia?"

"I'm going to track down the orthodox sect." Old Ghost Shang replied.

"What did you find?" Wu Ming immediately sat up straight.

"Nothing." Shang Laogui's tone was obviously a little depressed, "Maybe someone calculated that I was going to go there. When I found Funiu Mountain, the entire Zhengdao Sect was empty."

No wonder he didn't come to seek revenge on him, it turned out he was scared away by Old Ghost Shang!

Wu Ming's heart moved, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "You haven't been chasing down the Taoist priests of the Orthodox Sect for the past few months, have you? Have you caught up?"

"What do you think?" Old Ghost Shang glanced at Wu Ming and asked coldly.
