Chen Wen stretched out his arms, stared at the sky, and was speechless for a while. He turned around and looked at Liu Qi's expectant eyes, and shook his head: "My lord, the sky is unpredictable. The clouds are so strange that I can't predict them."
Will it rain or rain heavily?"
Liu Qi did not express his disappointment. You must know that the high technology of later generations cannot accurately predict the ever-changing wind and rain through satellite cloud images. It is really difficult for Chen Wen to measure the clouds and rain with his naked eyes.
"Second brother, now that we are here, there is no reason to stop at Wangling. Let's prepare for the worst and prepare to set off." Liu Qi looked up at the changing clouds in the sky, not wanting to delay any more time.
Chen Wu waved his fist: "Master, I am the one who takes the lead." Chen Wu also called Liu Qi "Master" and felt that he had been promoted. As soon as he called him "Master", he felt a sense of pleasure that he was willing to go through life and death for his son Liu Qi.
.
The title "Lord" came from Chen Wu's mouth, and it sounded quite useful to Liu Qi.
"Brother Wu, wait a minute." Chen Wen stopped Chen Wu and admired Liu Qi's courage very much. He said, "A flash flood is no joke. Let me test it again."
As he spoke, Chen Wen began to take off his armor. He looked around at Huang Wudie and Huan'er beside him. He couldn't help but blush. As he took off his armor, he said to Huang Wudie: "Please, Mrs. Huang and Huan'er, please turn your back."
Huang Wudie looked at Chen Wen, very puzzled, but she still didn't want to ask more questions. She pulled Huan'er and turned her back reluctantly. Since General Chen Wen said this, it was not convenient for women to watch.
Liu Qi was also curious and asked: "Second brother, why are you doing this?"
Chen Wen said calmly: "My lord, I once studied with an old Taoist in the mountains and learned the technique of measuring rain while naked. When I couldn't observe the astronomy and judge the weather, I took off my clothes and practiced Qigong. My skin could fully feel the moisture in the air.
If you change the situation, you can roughly predict the wind and rain situation within 24 hours, and it will be indistinguishable."
"Oh, that's it." Liu Qi said, standing with his back to Huang Wudie, and watched Chen Wen test the wind and rain nakedly.
Chen Wen quickly took off his armor and underwear. Of course, he still wore a pair of large underwear. His shirt and thighs were bare. He still stretched out his arms and spread his legs in a "big" shape.
, closing his eyes, he could see the muscles all over Chen Wen's body beating. As for how Chen Wen felt the changes in the air while naked, others had no way of knowing.
Leaning slightly, Chen Wen opened his eyes, slightly excited. He picked up his underwear and put it on. While putting it on, he said hurriedly: "My lord, the situation is clear. There will be a heavy rain in an hour and a half. We can walk through Qingdao at normal speed."
It takes two hours to climb the mud ridge, so we have to race against the clock, and we can survive even half an hour."
"Okay." Liu Qi looked at the Qingni Ridge in the mist, waved his hand, and said loudly to Chen Wudao: "General Wu, in order to prevent falling into the swamp, use a long hemp rope to tie up everyone's waists. Every second counts.
Run forward.”
"Yes." Chen Wu responded. Chen Chun had untied a bundle of hemp rope. Chen Wu tied it around his waist first, followed by Liu Qi, Huang Xu, and then Chen Chun, Chen Xia, Chen Qiu and Chen Dong. The four guards would protect him.
Huang Wudie and Huan'er were in the middle, followed by ten bronze-armored guards carrying some necessary supplies, with Chen Wen in the rear.
Chen Wu held a slender iron drill in his hand to explore the way, Chen Wen and Goujian's sword was unsheathed, Huang Xu's iron bow was in hand, Chen Chun and other four generals also had weapons in their hands, and a group of twenty people strode on a rope.
Climb the mountain road over Qingni Ridge.
Everyone was very cautious and didn't say anything. Since they were wearing the same rope, everyone ran at an inconsistent pace at first and couldn't run fast. Fortunately, they were all skilled people. After getting used to a hundred handfuls of rice, a group of twenty people ran.
When they get up, they walk in a straight line, taking care of each other and running very fast.
For Liu Qi and others who are good at martial arts, Qingni Ridge is not as scary as the legend says. Because the young master Liu Qi and the soldiers were tied to a rope and climbed over Qingni Ridge themselves, everyone had a backbone and started running.
The wind was blowing, and even though we were treading in mud of different shades, everyone was still full of energy. One foot was deep and the other was shallow. You helped me and I pulled you, without stopping for a moment.
We encountered several dangers on the way, killed several python-like molluscs in several shallow mud pools, and almost encountered mountain landslides several times. Fortunately, everyone worked hard and ran out of Qingni Ridge with all their might.
When we reached another place that was slightly flat, before we could untie the rope and take a breath, we heard a thunderous thunder, and a heavy rain began without any warning.
It is common for the weather in the mountains to be sunny and rainy at the same time. The Qingni Ridge opposite was suddenly shrouded in rain and fog.
It was just cloudy here in Liu Qi, but not a drop of rain fell.
"Young Master, it's so dangerous." Huang Wudie looked at Liu Qi's colorful face and couldn't help laughing.
In fact, everyone had similar faces. After running for an hour and a half, that is, more than three hours of climbing over slippery mud ridges, it would be strange not to have faces.
Huan'er called a few bronze-armored guards to bring a few basins of water from the nearby pond, took out a few handkerchiefs, asked everyone to wash their faces, and wiped the mud off their armor a little.
Girls always like to be clean.
Liu Qi said thank you to Huan'er sincerely and gratefully. Huan'er's handsome face blushed slightly and looked even more charming.
After a short rest, everyone continued to set off. After walking for a while, they came to the sword pavilion where "one man can guard the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it". There was a suspended plank road winding up the cliff. The plank road was very dilapidated and there were no visible signs.
It looks like there are people walking on it. It may be an abandoned ancient plank road that has been in disrepair for a long time. It is still a dilemma whether it can be passed.
However, after passing the hundred-meter cliff without any place to stay, there is still a plank road that can be used to walk around the wall, which is not difficult for people like Liu Qi.
It was Liu Qi, Chen Wu, and Huang Xu who went to check out the suspended plank road.
Liu Qi tried to step on a few wooden planks. Perhaps the ancient construction technology was really superb. Although the plank road was in disrepair and was dilapidated in many places, there was no problem in standing on it to bear the weight of one or two people.
Passing the suspended plank road, this time everyone did not tie a hemp rope together, but held a hemp rope, holding hands and looking after each other in groups of two or three.
Needless to say, it was dangerous, but after passing the 100-meter cliff and Qingni Ridge, everyone seemed to take life and death very lightly. While walking on the plank road cautiously, they occasionally let out a few knowing laughs.
It was already sunset when crossing the sword pavilion, and there were no troops stationed to guard it. Liu Qi and his party finally crossed the Shu Road after many difficulties, overcoming the legendary difficulty of climbing the Shu Road to the sky. In the process of crossing the Shu Road, they may face obstacles every step of the way.
There was a danger of death, including falling off a cliff, falling into a swamp, being hit by a flash flood, or encountering a wild beast, but everyone still made it through safely.
Following the young master Liu Qi had such an experience, everyone's hearts became more closely connected, and Liu Qi became the real "lord" in everyone's minds.
After leaving Jiange, there is an ordinary mountain ridge in front of you. According to the topographic map, you can go straight to Jinguan City Chengdu after climbing over this mountain.
As it was getting dusk, everyone was tired, so they camped on the same spot and spent the night to recuperate their energy. Tomorrow they could go to Jinguan City to look for the Sword God Pu Yuan.
A fire was made to make food, and everyone took an early rest after the meal. There were still three tents, one big and two small, with bronze-armored guards taking turns to guard them as before.
In the middle of the night, Huang Wudie and Huan'er were whispering in their small tent.
Huang Wudie patted Huan'er's hand and advised: "We will arrive at Jinguan City tomorrow. Sister, please go and accompany the young master tonight."
Huan'er didn't make a sound.
Huang Wudie said again: "Go, sister, and be obedient. It will be inconvenient to return to Xinye in the future."
Huan'er whispered: "Sister, I don't want to go."
Huang Wudie asked: "Why?"
After a while of silence, Huan'er said: "It hurts down there."
Huang Wudie smiled: "Silly sister, this is the first time. It hurts no more."
Huan'er was silent again.
Huang Wudie said: "Go, sister, tell the young master to be gentle."
Huan'er shook his head and said, "It still doesn't work."
"Why can't it work?"
Huan'er hesitated for a while and said sheepishly: "Sister, we have run out of fish bubbles."
Huang Wudie was shocked: "What? No, five fish bubbles... Oh my God, how did you and the young master do it? Did you waste it?"
Huan'er lowered his head: "I've put it all to use. Didn't you see that the young master got up so late this morning?"
"Alas..." Huang Wudie sighed in her heart, feeling an inexplicable sense of loss. Although she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, Huan'er was even younger. This girl's youth was an advantage. The young master's mighty Huang Wudie was
I know better than Huan'er.
"Sister, go ahead." Huan'er persuaded Huang Wudie in turn.
"I..." Huang Wudie was moved by Huan'er's words, and her whole body suddenly became hot, thinking about how she felt when she was alone in the camp in the middle of the night last night, but pushed her beloved son Liu Qi into Huan'er's arms.
, I feel so uncomfortable. Do you want to accompany the young master tonight?!
Huang Wudie hesitated. Last night Huan'er was with me, and tonight I am with you. Why don't you make a fool of yourself if this matter is spread out? Although only the young master, himself and Huan'er know about this matter, and no one will know about it, but in his heart
The head always feels that this is not the case. After all, the young master is still an unmarried person. He has not taken a wife and concubines, but it is unethical for sisters to play with each other...
However, what should we do if there is no more fish? If Huan'er is forced to accompany the young master, if he is shot, Huan'er's reputation will be gone. Without a reputation, he will naturally have no status. That is not what Huang Wudie wants to see.
the result of.
Come on, bear with it, and go back to Xinye to make more fish soaks for Huan'er as a spare. Huang Wudie became a little upset, sighed secretly, and said with concern: "Sister, let's go to bed early."
"Well..." Huan'er nodded and fell asleep, because he was too tired. After a day of intense hiking over mountains and ridges, Huan'er's physique was different from that of Huang Wudie, Chen Wen, Chen Wu and other great men who were good at martial arts.
It was incomparable. Anyway, without Yupao, Huan'er was facing inwards and no longer had to think about the messy things that happened with the young master last night.
After seeing Huan'er, she fell asleep within a short time, but Huang Wudie couldn't fall asleep. She kept thinking about Huan'er's words in her heart: "Sister, you better go!" She couldn't help but get up several times to go to the young master's Liu Qi camp.
He restrained himself and lay down with his clothes on.
Lying down and sitting up, sitting up and lying down again, Huang Wudie couldn't sleep over and over again. She couldn't decide whether to sneak into the young master's camp. This night, for the chivalrous girl Huang Wudie,
