There was some hidden worry in Qiu Yu's relaxed and comfortable expression.
If you want to take shortcuts, you have to take risks.
Normally, they would still have some confidence. Although the road is difficult, there is no harm in being careful.
However, someone is already watching them.
If the other party does not want Lin Mengya and the others to succeed in seeking medicine, there will definitely be a fierce battle here.
"Why don't I go and tell Master Guo later that we should leave early. I don't want to implicate the caravan. If their target is just me, as long as I am no longer in the caravan, they should and will not cause trouble."
At dusk, when you pass by the apricot blossom forest, you will see the difficult and dangerous mountain road. At the narrowest point, only one car can pass. .??.
And below, there is a cliff. But what is even more dangerous is that violent winds blow up from the mountain stream from time to time.
Not to mention humans, even horses can stagger around.
This is why most people would not choose this naturally dangerous place.
If a caravan passes by, it will be able to pass through this natural danger without any danger because of the help of the carriage and the chain.
If there were only three of them and three horses, it would be a bit dangerous.
"Well, I'll tell you. I think Mr. Guo will understand."
Qiu Yu also nodded. After all, the caravans are just civilians doing business. There is no need to involve innocent people.
Looking at Qiu Yu's back, Lin Mengya let out a breath.
"Are you nervous? I will protect you."
Long Tianyu gently but firmly held Lin Mengya's little hand. There was a sense of security in his eyes that made Lin Mengya a little wary.
Nodding, she didn't know why, but she always believed that Long Tianyu would do what he said.
Qiu Yu, who had already discussed with Mr. Guo, quickly turned back.
Mr. Guo is the best among the best. Of course he knows that these people have extraordinary status. Therefore, the trouble they cause is also extraordinary.
"Master Guo agreed, but he said that the wind will be stronger at night. Therefore, he will take the caravan to rest in the apricot blossom forest for one more day. Let us go there the next day."
This is the biggest concession Mr. Guo can make for them.
Lin Mengya looked in the direction of Mr. Guo and nodded slightly to express her gratitude.
The caravan moved forward and soon arrived at the apricot blossom forest that Qiu Yu mentioned.
Before I walked in, a quiet smell came into my nose.
Compared with the cool fragrance of the plum blossoms, which are not terrestrial, this ordinary apricot blossom is more like the little girl of the Lin family, which makes people feel cute and amiable.
I am afraid that even the national masters cannot use thick ink and heavy colors to depict one-tenth of the scenery in front of them. Large tracts of pink and white snow are connected together without any gaps. They are like hills piled with apricot flowers, endless.
If it weren't for the apricot blossoms all over the mountains and plains, who would have thought that there was a chasm behind that could kill people?
"Everyone, rest in the apricot blossom forest in front!"
Wen Shi's rough voice sounded, and everyone responded in agreement.
Before it got dark, they all went to the apricot blossom forest in front to find a suitable place to set up a pot and stove.
Lin Mengya rode a horse and went to the front to investigate with Long Tianyu.
The journey was not difficult, but Lin Mengya still gulped when she saw with her own eyes the dangerous terrain like the Great Rift Valley in Africa.
"No wonder, although the Lintian Kingdom is not as powerful as other countries, no other country has invaded it for so many years."
Seeing it with her own eyes, Lin Mengya could only marvel at the wonder of the Creator.
"Of course, Lintian Kingdom is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and only one side is connected to the mainland. However, this rift valley only leaves two passages in and out."
Even though he was suppressing it, Qiu Yu's tone was filled with pride.
Lin Mengya didn't bother to press him. If she couldn't guess that Qiu Yu was from Lintian Kingdom by now, then her head could be used as a ball.
However, whether they are people from Lintian or Jin, at least they are friends who can support each other, so there will be no problem.
"Although it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, once the Qi soldiers capture the two entrances and exits, wouldn't it be impossible for the people of Lintian to retreat?"
Long Tianyu just couldn't stand Qiu Yu's smug look. If this was in Kyoto, he would definitely arrest this guy as a spy and interrogate him.
But Qiu Yu was not angry, he shook his head and said
"Why do you think this place, which belongs to the realm of Lintian and Earth, has no one to live here? It's because Lintian is surrounded by water on three sides, every household has a boat, and everyone is a good hand in the water. If these two places are occupied, then
The people of Lintian Kingdom have already gone to bed and run far away. No matter how powerful you are, can you still sail on dry land?"
Qiu Yu's words choked Long Tianyu, and the two of them were dissatisfied with each other.
From military geography, to disputes over the national economy and people's livelihood.
Lin Mengya looked at the two people who looked like fighting cocks and couldn't help but shook her head.
They are all adults, so why are they just like children who have not grown up?
He squinted his eyes and looked towards the other side.
Although this was her first visit to heaven, for some reason, she felt a little longing for the other side.
He took out the plum blossom copper seal from his arms.
If she guessed correctly, this thing must be related to her mother's life experience.
Qiu Yu also said that most of the nobles of Lintian Kingdom would use plum blossoms as their family symbols.
If nothing else happens, this should be her mother's homeland.
No matter what, one-half of the blood of Lintian Kingdom flows in her body.
Therefore, even though it was my first time here, I didn't feel any strangeness at all. Instead, I felt a sense of excitement hidden deep in my blood.
The worries that lingered in my heart seemed to have completely disappeared at this moment.
I really don’t know what kind of changes this trip to Lintian Kingdom will bring to my life.
Thinking of this moment, she actually had some expectations.
"Let's go, the wind is blowing, be careful of catching a cold."
After the battle ended, Long Tianyu's eyes were filled with a small sense of pride after the victory.
Let Long Tianyu hold the reins, and they returned to the apricot blossom forest together. Qiu Yu, who was temporarily at a disadvantage, was muttering quietly from behind.
On that handsome and downcast face, there were clearly written the words 'I am unhappy'.
"Really, you are such grown-up people, can you not do such childish things?"
Lin Mengya really couldn't stand it. When they were in Kyoto before, the two of them were fine.
Why, as soon as he left Kyoto, his IQ regressed and he became a childish person.
"He was the one who started it. Of course I can be magnanimous and tolerant, but this matter concerns the prestige of the country. As the third prince of the Jin Dynasty, Prince Yu, I naturally cannot give in at all!"
Long Tianyujun had a serious face and was talking very seriously.
Cut! Lin Mengya spat at Long Tianyu in her heart.
He is obviously a childish person, but he has to find a high-sounding reason for himself.
There were many people in the caravan and the strength was great. In a short time, the aroma of the food was wafting throughout the apricot forest.
The fireworks in the world, combined with this rare spectacle, made even Lin Mengya feel elegant for a time.
I got off my horse, found a place where flower petals were piled up, and rolled around.
The scent of apricot blossoms covered her body, but she didn't know that her child-like behavior made the entire caravan smile and roll their eyes.
"Brother Yuan, you are already married, why are you acting like a child?"
After a few days, everyone knew that although this guy was sometimes harsh, he was a good-tempered master towards his own people.
And because he is young, he always has a lively personality. I like to make fun of him.
He wasn't angry at all, he just smiled and passed away.
At this time, Lin Mengya, who rolled up from the pile of apricot blossoms, smiled mischievously, and then took the wine bottle from the man's hand.
"What? You're angry, so you want to pour my wine? That's not possible, I only have this little wine left. Hey, little ancestor, what are you doing?"
The man chased Lin Mengya to ask for it, but unexpectedly, she reached out and grabbed a handful of apricot flowers on the branches and stuffed them into the wine pot.
Seeing that the man was anxious, he shook it vigorously, and then placed it on the man's lips with a smile.
"Taste it!"
The man was not pretentious, he took the wine bottle and took a sip.
Unexpectedly, the liquor, which was originally a hot and bitter liquor, tasted much cleaner because of the apricot blossoms.
The taste of sorghum, coupled with the fragrance of apricot blossoms, is quite unique.
"Well! This wine is good! Thank you, little brother Yuan!"
The man was satisfied and went to find someone to show off to, leaving Lin Mengya behind, still picking apricot flowers.
"What are you doing picking these things?"
Long Tianyu didn't know what she was paying attention to. Instead, he was pulled by Lin Mengya and used the hem of a pair to carry the petals she had snatched off.
Seeing that she could no longer hold it anymore, Lin Mengya took Long Tianyu, who was confused, to the cooking stove.
I washed the rice myself and put it into the pot, then washed the apricot flowers with water and put it into the pot too.
"Brother Yuan, we carried this rice little by little. Isn't it a bit wasteful for you to do this?"
Wen Shi didn't understand what Yuan Lin was going to do, so he frowned to stop him.
But Lin Mengya, while stirring the porridge in the pot with a large spoon, explained
"This apricot flower is also a kind of medicinal material. It has the effect of replenishing qi, dispelling wind and unblocking meridians. It is especially good for the skin. I prepared it for the women in our family. You grown men, go away!
"
Except for Qiu Yu, no one thought that this seemingly useless apricot flower could be used as medicine.
So, I had no choice but to stand aside and watch.
The sun was setting, and the simple meals everyone had cooked were out of the pot.
Everyone sat on the floor, thanks to the apricot blossom forest. Regardless of whether it was white rice, stir-fried vegetables, or pickles, a few petals of apricot blossoms would fall off in the wind.
It adds a bit of poetry. Although most of the caravans are rough people, it still feels novel.
Lin Mengya's group also occupied a position. Of course, the most prominent one was the apricot blossom porridge that Lin Mengya made with great passion.
