Chapter 354: Arrival
Time passed little by little, and the sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer! Listening to the sound, the horse does not seem to be running very fast. But at this time and terrain, this speed is almost the limit of ordinary horses!
"Who's on the road on this big night? It can't be bandits, right?! Not good! In case we have few people and can't beat them, do I surrender or run......"
Just when Xiao Han was still thinking nonsense about the rain cloth, the sound of horses' hooves finally came closer. Xiao Han stared at his two eyes and looked forward, and saw that on the ancient road, a black shadow wrapped in heavy mist suddenly rushed out!
"Boom !!"
A huge lightning bolt split in the sky at the right time, and the sky and earth were snow-white with the light imprint! With this fleeting light, Xiao Han immediately saw the knight on the horse.
I don't know how long I wore the cloth armor, and it was all mud and water! The brass helmets were a little blackened, and under the helmets, the knights' faces were pale! It's also fortunate that there are other people around Xiao Han, if he hadn't seen this ghost in this kind of place, Xiao Han would have been scared to death!
No fighting, no robbery, not even talking! The knight on the horse also spotted the small camp on the side of the road, but he only glanced at the camp coldly, and then stopped and disappeared from view.
"Whew...... Who is this? Walk like this at night, don't you want to die? ”
When the person left, Xiao Han also jumped out from behind the rice seeds, looked at the place where the knight disappeared and asked strangely.
Ren Qing's expression was solemn, and he looked at the direction in which this person disappeared and said slowly: "This is the Red Feather Messenger!" Look at him coming from the south, something must have happened there! ”
"What's the matter? Something to do with military affairs? ”
"I don't know! However, it is definitely a big deal to make the Red Feather Messenger still rush under such circumstances! ”
"South, what kind of big deal can it be......"
The Red Feather Messenger had already gone away, but Xiao Han and Ren Qing were both silent! Seeing the dark ancient road, I suddenly felt a little apprehensive in my heart.
Hanzhong, Qinling Pass.
A silver-gray half-sized dog jumped down the mountain road, startling a large flock of sparrows foraging on the ground.
"Xiaoqi! Slow down, forgot that you were almost slapped to death by a blind bear last time? ”
Just behind the happy dog, a young man on a donkey followed him out of the mountain with a tired face.
Perhaps he was not used to the big sun outside, and after walking out of the mountains and forests, the young man first subconsciously held his dirty sleeves to cover his eyes. Then he put it down little by little, looking at everything in front of him curiously.
There is no doubt that this young man is Xiao Han who has been crawling and rolling in the Qinling Mountains for more than eight days! Since that rainy night, everyone in the team has unconsciously picked up speed, and it turned out to be two days faster than the scheduled time!
A small group of mules and horses walked out of the ancient road one after another, and several men with messy beards looked at the plain in front of them and showed a rare smile. After walking the mountain road for so long, I almost forgot how to walk on the flat road!
Xiaodong and Stunned are now dirty, and their hair is like arching a dog hole, a stinging elder!
But it's not to blame them, there is one in the team now, and even Xiao Han is this respectful! The rapid march for several days, who has the heart to pack these things!
"Xiao Hou, don't go forward yet! Take a break here! Behind, Ren Qing shouted! Xiao Han, who was at the front, heard it, answered, and then pulled Xiao Qi's ear hard to make it stop chasing Xiao Qi!
Maybe it's because they are all Xiao Han's pets, and the miracle duo gets along very well, and a donkey and a dog have developed a friendship that crosses species.
Driving these two guys to join the big army, in this team, it seems that Xiao Han is the most relaxed. You don't have to do any rough work! Of course, it's not that he's squeamish, it's that this guy really can't do any work, so he can only help......
The group that had just come out of the Qinling Mountains stopped for a while at the mountain pass, gathered their manpower, and sorted out the supplies. Then this group of people continued to rush forward as if they were fleeing!
From now on, there is finally no need to pretend to be a wild man in the forest, and the team is obviously much easier.
After eating and living together for several days, Xiao Han had already mingled with these people. And several people, including Si Nongjian, are also used to Xiao Han, a Hou Ye who has no shelf. A few people can occasionally make a few innocuous jokes together to liven up the tension!
Hanzhong has been a big city since ancient times! And it is almost the origin of the Han nation! So not long after coming out of the Qinling Mountains, Xiao Han could see obvious traces of human settlement, on both sides of the road, the cultivated fields looked so neat.
Xiao Han rode a small trail to the front of the team, and when he saw a paddy field on the side of the road, he immediately cheered, jumped off the donkey and rushed to the ground, and the cat bent his waist to look into the water!
"Hey, Brother Ren, take a look. This land has not been planted yet, so we can't requisition it! ”
Ren Qing heard Xiao Han's shout, and strode over, stepping into the water without pulling his trouser legs, and groping under the water with both hands.
"Huh? Really not planted? Which lazyman's land is this, and why hasn't food been grown at this time?! After touching the water for a long time, Ren Qing looked at his mud-stained hands and was surprised!
It stands to reason that the grain should sprout now! But this obviously well-cared for land has nothing, no rice seeds, no seedlings, which is simply an incredible thing in the eyes of Ren Qing, who was born in a farmer's family!
In the paddy field, Ren Qing's face was full of surprise, but Xiao Han didn't think about it so much! He only knows that there is ready-made land to grow grain directly, and he doesn't have to do the same as he imagined before he came: use strong orders to expropriate land, and then pull out all the grain that others have planted and plant his own ......
"It's God help me!" Xiao Han felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, since ancient times, land has been the lifeblood of farmers. In his previous life, he had seen countless tragedies caused by land requisition, and he really didn't want to do it again in this world!
Now you see how good it is, if you don't plant, then I'll plant! The land can't be barren, can it? Wait until the landlord comes to ask for an explanation in the future, and directly settle it with money! No matter how you say it, it's all your own reasoning! This is simply God giving us face!
"Hurry up, that Ah San! Don't be stunned, hurry up and show me how this land is, whether there is enough to grow rice, and show me the water and everything carefully! Don't make any stubble! If there is stubble, you can dig your own pit and bury yourself here! ”
Happily shouted at a dark-looking guy in Si Nongjian, Xiao Han looked left and right, and ran down the ground to a tree. Climb up to the branches of the tree in twos and look far away.
With Xiao Han's order, the accompanying Si Agricultural Supervisor immediately got busy! The survey of the terrain of the survey of the terrain, the measurement of the land of the measurement of the land! There are even those who hold water and soil research! Sure enough, professional things always have to be done by professional people!
Everyone was busy with their work, and the guards stopped. The stunned man unloaded the package on his back, scratched his head and asked Xiaodong, "Huh?" How do I remember that Hou Ye can't climb trees? Why do you climb faster than monkeys now? ”
When Xiao Dong heard this, he was stunned angrily, and said as he walked towards Xiao Han: "Stupid! Have you forgotten that the day before yesterday, the Hou Ye was scared by a long worm? He can climb such a tall and difficult pine tree, what is this little tree now? ”
