Everyone looked back at him at the same time, Ren Liu pointed to a pile of fallen leaves on the ground and said: "This looks like a footprint, pointing in this direction. General, if I can trace the footprints and traces back to the road to the mountain village like Captain Chen, can I avoid it?" To strengthen training?"

Huang San: "!!" What the hell? !

Chen Mang remained silent. The pile of fallen leaves pointed at by Ren Liu was half-rotten. Unless he stepped on it not long ago, it would be impossible to discern any traces of "footprints". What's more, it was dark and backlit, which was obviously stronger than people and animals stepping on. The "roads" are higher, and any experienced tracker will immediately rule out this place.But the point is not whether Ren Liu will follow up, but that he "can lead the way", so no matter how obvious the lying element is, there is no need to expose it at all.

Sure enough, He Feiyun exchanged glances with him, and said happily: "Captain Chen can only be brought here, if you can lead everyone to the destination, then you will be better than Captain Chen, and of course you will be exempted from additional training. And worthy of a promotion."

A light flashed in Ren Liu's eyes, and he said, "Okay. I hope the general can keep his promise. Master Yun, everyone, please follow me."

As a result, the front team of the group changed to the rear team, and the speed of travel was many times faster than before.Ren Liu pretended to search for traces along the way, but if he wasn't stupid, he probably didn't bother to cover it up. After all, how could there be a "pathfinder" that didn't affect the speed of travel at all?After not walking far, even Xie Qian and Xiao Xiu, who didn't know how to track, could tell: this man knew the way at all.

Although everyone could see it, but no one exposed it—including Yang San, who had a tacit understanding of his facial features. He was worried that if he exposed it face-to-face, he would completely push Ren Liu to Xie Qian, and turn his allegiance from the dark to the bright. Shaking out all the old people in the gathering place is much worse than exposing only one place.

With a guide, you can avoid going the wrong way and other delays. Soon, the dense and endless forest gradually opened up, surrounded by sparse shrubs, enough to make the group of people who came out of the forest feel like the willows are dark and the flowers are bright.Going forward, a huge strange stone blocks the way, and behind the strange stone, a low house appears.

It was the small mountain village that He Feiyun and Xie Qian discovered before.

Looking down from a distance and looking up close, although the layout is the same, it is far from Xie Qian's imagination.The houses in the village are not old, but very new, but the walls seem to have been built hastily and randomly. Not only are they crooked, but the yellow mud is not evenly applied at all. .This is completely unlike a house suitable for long-term living, or even a dilapidated house. Even a shack may be more comfortable than such a damp and dark house.

Xie Qian's heart was clear, but his face looked extremely happy, as if he didn't notice the abnormality of the village at all, instead he stopped in front of the strange stone blocking the entrance of the village, and praised: "Oh, this stone is so impressive. There are so many, why didn't you bring me over to watch it earlier? Ren Liu, you didn't do a good job of leading the way!"

Ren Liu saluted silently, neither admitting nor denying it.Xie Qian patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said: "However, now is a good time to come, the clouds are floating in the sun, and the light is the most suitable for viewing rocks, which is much clearer than breaking out a few broken lanterns. I have to take a good look at it, maybe I can draw a masterpiece when I go back."

Hearing the compliments to Ren Liu all the way, Yang San was filled with anger. Now that Xie Qian only named Ren Liu, it seemed like he was mocking him, and his lungs almost exploded.What the hell!Didn't you, dog official, insist on watching it at night? !Who forced you to hold a lantern to look at the rocks!How can a traitor be rewarded instead of being punished! !

He scolded Ren Liu and Xie Qian countless times in his heart, and with his head down, he couldn't hide the resentment on his face.Just as he was engrossed in cursing, Xiaoxiu pushed him violently, making Yang San almost jump up in fright.

Xiaoxiu curled her lips and said, "Why are you in a daze? Can you hear me when my lord asks you?!"

Yang San was dripping with cold sweat, and said in a panic: "Ah, ah? What did your lord say?"

Xiaoxiu: "Hey, you don't wink at all! Don't you know all the dialects? First go find a clean and suitable place for adults!"

Yang San was shocked by the scolding, subconsciously agreed first, and immediately regretted it after speaking.What kind of unlucky mission did he receive? Why don't you go back and find someone who will be scolded by the shaman?Good guy, just let the damn Ren Liu take advantage of the benefits of being a traitor, and let all the disadvantages fall on him? !He almost gritted his teeth with hatred, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and dragged himself to the village.

When passing by Ren Liu, Ren Liu suddenly said in a local dialect: "Be smart and lead to the best family!"

Yang San scolded: "Take care of yourself!" He strode angrily into the village, but after he turned around in the village and walked through two intersections, his mind gradually calmed down, and he finally understood the truth of any matter. Six hints.He suddenly realized, and immediately changed direction, ignoring all the rough mud houses in the village, and went straight to the tallest and most exquisite bamboo building in the central square.

At the entrance of the village, Xie Qian rode a horse all night, his buttocks and thighs were sore, so he didn't dare to sit down on a rock to rest, insisting that being idle is idle, why not have some fun, and forced He Feiyun to enjoy the village entrance. A slightly worthwhile broken stone.

Xiaoxiu took out drinking water and dry food from the small backpack, and held them with both hands.Xie Qian stared, and said: "What to eat, there are hot ones ready-made in the village, how can you still starve the county guard? Don't disturb me chatting with General He, you go to eat by yourself when you are hungry! "

This unreasonable, kind-hearted appearance of acting like a donkey's liver and lungs, even the little sleeve who knows the inside story and has been serving him all year round, can't help scolding "you bastard" in his heart.So, Xiaoxiu stopped trying to persuade him, and said angrily: "Then we will not be polite!" Then he threw away all the dry food and water bags and distributed them to others.

Chen Mang thanked him, and ate up his share in two or three bites. Turning his head and seeing that Ren Liu hadn't moved yet, he said, "You don't want to eat? If you don't want to eat, bring it!"

Ren Liu hurriedly said: "Sir, there is a rule in our clan, we have to pray before eating, it's not that we don't want to eat."

"Too much shit!" Chen Mang rubbed his belly that was only two or three times full, and gave up resentfully.

Seeing that Chen Mang only looked ferocious and did not really steal his food, Ren Liu felt at ease a little.Since the Flying Eagle Army came to camp here, his food standard has risen sharply, making the habit of being half full all the year round more and more unsustainable.Besides, unlike Yang San who took care of his family, he didn't need to set aside meals to smuggle to his family.As a result, those delicacies that he had never seen before, and that he had never eaten before, all entered his stomach that had been dry for a long time.Thinking back to the oil-splashed noodles at noon yesterday, he was full of saliva, and even the fierce Chen Mang became a lot kinder. As for the little sleeve who gave out dry food, he was like a Bodhisattva.

He ate all the dry food, wiped his mouth, and was a little bit unsatisfied. If he can live with this dog sheriff and general and can eat this good food every day, then even if he is punished by the shaman god, it seems nothing to be afraid of. .

After a while, a skinny little girl poked her head out through the bushes, and said hesitantly, "That...several officials..."

She slurred her words, her voice was low, and she yelled several times before Xiaoxiu finally noticed her.Xiaoxiu hurried over, squatted down, and said, "Little girl, did Yang San send us here to pick us up into the village?"

The little girl was too thin, as thin as a gust of wind could blow her down, with two malnourished wombs tied in her withered yellow hair, her face was sharp and her eyes were big, but she was big and dull, and her body was not as lively as it should be.She nodded in a daze, and said in local dialect: "Third Uncle asked me to pick him up."

Xie Qian looked at Ren Liu, who quickly translated and asked her to lead the way in local dialect.

The little girl nodded and ran ahead quickly, and the group finally entered the small mountain village.

The situation in the village is worse than what you can see from the outside. Many of the houses that look like they are not even "houses". The places with slopes are backed by the slopes, and only half of the brackets need to be erected. Dig into the slope in the second half.The house that can't lean on the hillside is made of sticks and mud to barely make a door, and then a small half of the house is built like a chicken coop, and the rest is all underground. It sounds like a cellar at best, and at worst, it is similar to a living person's tomb. Not far behind.

Xie Qian looked around and saw almost no villagers going out for activities, but although the houses were hung with straw mats and cloth curtains, it was clear that most of them lived there.

Ren Liu quietly approached him for half a step, and said in a low voice, "This is the Lemo dialect. The customs of their clan are quite...different from those of Chang'an. In case...offend Sir, please forgive me."

Xie Qian had a half-smile, neither explicitly agreeing nor directly denying it.

A group of people passed by rows of low-slung huts, turned many narrow bends, and then passed through a flat and empty square, finally arrived at the bamboo building that was quite different from all the huts. .

The little girl leading the way pointed to the bamboo building, turned around and ran away without waiting for a response, and quickly disappeared among the rooms.Xie Qian looked up at the bamboo building, and admired insincerely: "This building is really exquisitely built, and the residence of a master from outside the world should look exactly like this in the scriptures."

He Feiyun: "The script? The county king is very elegant."

Xie Qian: "What's elegant? It's just a pastime when you have nothing to do and nowhere to go."

The two walked towards the bamboo building as if they were shopping and chatting, Xiao Xiu quickly walked a few steps, intending to knock on the door ahead of time, but just so happened, the door was pushed open from the inside.A pair of well-dressed twins with picturesque eyebrows jumped out of the bead curtain from inside, looked at the group of visitors with a smile, and said in unison: "Master Haqiu, I hope the shaman will be overwhelmed."

The two were dressed in brightly colored tight-fitting robes, their voices were hoarse, and it was difficult to distinguish between male and female.

Xie Qian retreated two steps subconsciously, his eyes wandered between He Feiyun and the twins a few times, and said in a tangled manner: "Xiaoxiu...you go and say hello."

Xiaoxiu: "..."

Xie Qian faltered and hesitated, not daring to look around, for fear of being misunderstood by He Feiyun, said: "You have more common topics with them...that, I should avoid suspicion."

Xiaoxiu scoffed, and said, "There is a common topic of farts, I can't understand what people say. What's more, it's a video of two girls, how can I not know that adults are also interested in girls?"

Xie Qian seemed to have grasped the key point, and immediately said to He Feiyun: "Look, Xiaoxiu has a special way of communicating with twins! Otherwise, why don't you even need to say a word, and you can immediately tell that this pair is a woman?!"

He Feiyun said indifferently: "A woman's skeleton is very different from a man's, so it doesn't mean anything."

Xie Qian: "..."

Xiaoxiu put his hips on his hips and said, "Look, even your general doesn't stand by you."
