At night, the night is dark and the breeze is cool.

Hedong County, Dongyuan City.

In the northwest suburbs, about 20 miles, on a gentle hill, there is a caravan stationed, lighting a fire and cooking.

This is a caravan that looks like about 100 people, they are camped on the left side of the hill at the leeward port, the place is very large, they lit more than ten regiments of bonfires, the bonfires are blazing, the fire is shining, the temperature rises.

The late autumn night was cold, and everyone in the caravan was warming up around a campfire.

"Click!"

Mu Jing sat alone in front of a bonfire, broke a branch with both hands, and threw it into the bonfire, and the light emitted by the bonfire reflected on his face one by one, revealing the outline of his facial features.

After three days of hurrying, he was also a little tired.

But the exhaustion was not as good as the thoughts in his head.

He was simulating all sorts of persuasion schemes at the moment.

Leaving the capital at this time is naturally something that has to be done.

He wants to say that the White Wave Yellow Turban Army will be lowered.

"Shizi, the time for us to set up camp is a little tight, you haven't eaten all day, let's take a moment first, eat some dry food first, and fill your stomach!" Huo Shao walked over and brought a piece of rice cracker.

"No, this rice cake is too hard, Shizi, I'll cook it for you."

This rice cake is dry and hard, Huo Shao saw the iron kettle hanging on the bonfire boiling water, thought about it, directly pounded the rice cake into it, after boiling, it turned into a ball of rice cereal, although the taste is not good, but it is easier to swallow.

"It's okay, as long as you can fill your stomach, you don't have to pay attention to going out!"

Mu Jing didn't pay much attention to it, picked up the wooden spoon, and ate it.

"Hehe, when did we Shepherd Shizi love to pay attention to people so unexquisitely!"

At this time, a handsome young man who was so handsome that people were jealous strode up, she was dressed in a white robe, her lips were red and her teeth were white, her smile was smiling, she sat next to Mu Jing, looked at Mu Jing's rice cereal, and said sarcastically directly to Huo Shao: "Huo Shao, you actually let our dignified Minghou Shizi come to eat rice cereal, you are not afraid to go back and reprimand your princess, you don't want to think about it, how delicate the current identity of the prince is, you can not care, at least there are concubines who care, other princesses feel sorry for their husbands, if you go back and find that the princess is succumbing, Our princess will not let us go as guards, don't talk about your personal guard camp when the time comes, my divine guards may not have a good time! ”

"The Great Commander is right, this is my negligence, I'm going to take a look, what other prey is around!"

Huo Shao fled in the wilderness, staying by Mu Jing's side for a long time, as Mu Jing's henchman, many people, even a few Jingping generals in charge of the army, he could not give face, but he knew that there were a few people he couldn't afford to provoke, and the commander of the Divine Guard Army in front of him was one of them.

"I'm not that delicate!"

Mu Jing glanced at Zhang Ning, and then took a big gulp of rice cereal that looked like a clump of rice cereal, and said with a smile: "I think that back then in Mushroom Mountain, we didn't even eat a bite, Brother Huzi ran a few hills, not to mention the prey, the roots of the tree were not found, so I found a few sour and bitter fruits and came back to fill my hunger, such days have come, there is dry food to eat, it is already very good!" ”

"It's not the same time anymore!"

Zhang Ning was wearing a Confucian robe, with a graceful demeanor, and her appearance and temperament were several grades higher than Mu Jing, and there was a touch of evil smile at the corner of her mouth when she smiled, which was very evil, she said quietly: "The pastor of the past, but just a lost dog, today's Mu Xiangguo, but today's court, the overlord who is in charge of Qiangkun, and the son of Mu Shizi is not what it used to be, how can it be as usual!" ”

She paused, her beautiful eyes flashed with a glint of nostalgia, and continued: "If I could, I would like to hope that Mu Shizi would still be the same as when he saw him in Jingping Village in the past, how good it would be!" ”

"The road always has to move forward, life is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, my father will be forced to die if he doesn't move forward, if I don't move forward, he will fall behind and be beaten!" Mu Jing didn't have too much sorrow in his heart, he was born in troubled times, he should have such a consciousness, he didn't have Zhang Ning's sentimentality.

When Zhang Ning heard this, she was also silent, she actually understood in her heart that standing on the perspective of Mushan and Mujing's father and son, only by constantly moving forward, only by constantly seizing power, and only by going to the top, the safer it is.

Otherwise, there is only a dead end.

The atmosphere between the two is a little silent, since Mu Jing's marriage, this atmosphere has been like this, but after a while, Huo Shao really hunted a few prey and came back, although it was late autumn and early winter, but the primeval forest of this era was well preserved, and the surrounding mountains and forests were not dense, so it was not difficult to find a few prey.

"Go and wash this pheasant and the hare, and I'll show you my hand!"

Mu's barbecue is open again, Mu Jing's personal barbecue, although there are some less ingredients, but the taste is still good, even Zhang Ning can't help but eat a few more bites at this time, and Huang Zhong, who is silent and has a big appetite next to him, is even more than half of the elimination.

After eating, after leaving the vigil behind, the rest of the caravan began to rest.

I have to rush tomorrow, and at this time, I must race against time to replenish my mental power.

But in the second half of the night, a light snow suddenly fell in the sky.

"It's snowing!"

Mu Jing opened his eyes, uncovered the cloak on his body, looked at the white snowflakes falling from the sky, reached out, grabbed a handful of snowflakes in his hands, the snow gradually melted, and his hands were moist.

In fact, Mu Jing likes snow quite a lot, he got up from the ground, looked at the snowflakes in the sky, and his originally dull mood was much happier.

"It's snowing!"

Another faint voice rang out.

Zhang Ning didn't know when he appeared beside Mu Jing, among the snowflakes, slim and elegant, and that delicate smile bloomed in the light snow.

There was a sleeping man next to Mu Jing who frowned, did not open his eyes, but turned over, and then turned around, trying to stay away from the two of them.

This is the night in the wilderness, in this situation, Huang Zhong is highly vigilant, but if it is Zhang Ning who appears next to Mu Jing, then it is another matter, you must know that he became Mu Jing's first guard because of Zhang Ning, and his son is under the condition of Zhang Ning's holy hand, and his breathing problem has gradually improved, which is a great grace.

Although he was dissatisfied with Zhang Ning's marriage in Mujing, the relationship between the two was not something he could manage.

"With so much snow on your body, you haven't slept all night?" Mu Jing patted the snowflakes on her body.

"Can't sleep!"

Zhang Ning said calmly: "Considering Yang Feng's attitude, this time, I'm not sure!" ”

At the beginning, Bai Bo and Huang Turban chased and killed her, but there were a lot of grievances between the two sides.

Although Mrs. Guo has died in battle now, she is not too sure about the attitude of the four brigade commanders under Mrs. Guo, and the most important thing is Yang Feng, who led people to hunt down and kill her, but he is not easy to get along with.

"Don't worry!"

Mu Jing smiled: "I am fortunate to have it, I have lost my life, it is naturally best to take it, and if we can't take it, it will make us have too much loss, but it is just the icing on the cake!" ”

"It's like this, don't lie to me!"

Zhang Ning shook his head: "The reason why you have to come to Hedong at any cost and danger is just to break the situation with the strength of the white wave and yellow turbans?" ”

She saw Mu Jing's mind very thoroughly.

Now that the forces of the Kwantung princes have begun to accumulate one after another, the soldiers and horses under the command of the Mu clan are still not enough to compete with the princes of the world, and it is an honor to reach a stalemate, but if you want to break the situation, you need the intervention of foreign soldiers and horses.

"I heard you found Yu Ji?" Mu Jing said suddenly.

"Hmm!"

"I also heard that Yu Ji wants to take you back to Jiangdong?" Mu Jing continued.

"Who did you listen to?"

Zhang Ning frowned.

Yu Ji has a Taoist palace in Jiangdong and a Taiping foundation, although it is not as powerful as Hebei Taiping Dao, but it is also a place for one party to settle down, and he really wants to bring himself back to Jiangdong, concentrate on cultivation, and ignore the world.

"If you have the chance, go for it!" Mu Jing was silent for a long time before he came out with such a sentence.

"Mulongtu, what do you mean?" When Zhang Ning heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he was completely angry, with a pair of beautiful eyes, looking at Mu Jing deadly, and even the snowflakes around her were frozen by the coldness emanating from her body.

"I ......"

Mu Jing couldn't say a word for a long time.

He must admit that this time, he has no confidence at all, what a momentum the crusade of the princes of the world, with the strength of Guanzhong and one place, and under the internal and external troubles, their defeat has reached more than seventy percent.

If he could, he didn't want Zhang Ning to accompany him to the funeral.

"You bastard!"

Zhang Ning's eyes were rosy and ran away with a crying voice.

Mu Jing scratched his head and sighed, not knowing what to say.

……

The next day, early in the morning, the snowflakes continued to fall, but it was not heavy snow, just light snow, which did not affect the caravan's journey, and this caravan escorted this cart of things and continued to move forward.

Three days later, the caravan entered Jiangyi.

Jiangyi is a county seat, located in the northeast of the river, at the confluence of Fenshui and Jianghe rivers, its northwest direction is Linfen City, and its northeast direction is Xiangling City.

This county town does not have much special features, but it is only separated from the Baibo Valley, the old nest of the Baibo Yellow Turban, by the Fenshui River.

The current county seat of Jiangyi is being occupied by the Yellow Turban Army.

The Yellow Turban General Han Xian personally guarded it.

After paying the entrance tax that was almost two or three times more expensive than usual, the caravan entered Jiangyi smoothly, and at this time a young man came to greet him personally.

"Shizi, it's all arranged!"

The young man is the head of the Wei family, Wei Qi.

He was a pioneer general sent by Mujing to Hedong.

In Hedong, the Wei family is the first family, and it is easy to enter the territory under the control of the Yellow Turban Army, and even has arranged everything for Mujing in Jiangyi City.

"Bo Yi, why is this Jiangyi City so chaotic?" Mu Jing walked through a few streets, watching the scenes, some people robbing things on the street, there were Yellow Turban Army arrogant and domineering eating, all kinds of situations.

"Shizi, the city under the jurisdiction of the Yellow Turban Army is in this situation, Han Xian is not bad, and he also ordered to stop it, but the soldiers and horses under his command are uneven, and they can't be controlled at all, and the people here are used to it!"

Wei Qi said softly.

When Mu Jing heard this, his eyes were faint and quiet, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
