In the mountains, there were soldiers advancing rapidly, alarming countless mutant beasts in the mountains. Some mutant beasts rushed towards the soldiers, and some mutant beasts were alerted and immediately turned around and ran away. In the end, the mutant beasts that rushed over caused
Several violent gunshots, leaving corpses on the ground, had no impact whatsoever, but the mutated beasts that turned around and fled were able to live longer.
Guo Pinming looked at the map and frowned. The next road was really difficult to walk, and he had to kill mutant beasts while walking. This would slow down the speed greatly.
"No, if we can't reach the destination in ten days, there will be a big gap in the encirclement net, and the mutated beasts will escape." Guo Pinming said to himself while looking at the map.
In fact, the route Guo Pinming chose was the most difficult to take, and the pressure he endured was also the greatest. However, he is a professional soldier and has long been accustomed to endure hardships and stand hard work. Therefore, Guo Pinming did not complain about hard work and gave him the most difficult task.
Himself, then it must be because the city lord trusts himself.
At this time, Cai He stepped forward and said to Guo Pinming: "Minister, those mercenaries are not leaving at all. They have reached their limit. Should we take a break?"
Guo Pinming didn't want to rest, but the mercenaries couldn't go any further, and he couldn't continue to force them to fight while marching, leaving soldiers to guard key intersections. The defense line arranged was the most rare. These mercenaries
It's normal to be unable to bear it.
"Then let them take a rest and continue moving forward in half an hour." Guo Pinming said helplessly.
For Guo Pinming, the food problem is still secondary. After all, even if he is hunting in the mountains, he can advance by eating meat for a period of time. The main problem is tiredness. Traveling and fighting take up a lot of time, and many places are
It is a deep mountain and old forest, and someone must open the way to pass. In this way, the physical strength consumed becomes even more serious.
Even the evolved ones can't withstand such high-intensity physical exertion, let alone there are many ordinary people among the mercenaries. These ordinary people are eager to find a place to sleep after they are on the road. As a result, there is still no day these days.
After traveling all night, they could hardly bear it.
Yu Muhe's mercenary group was assigned to Guo Pinming's men. Originally, Yu Muhe wanted to fight with fists and kicks to establish prestige among the mercenary group and pave the way for future actions, but he suddenly discovered that,
Now I have to drive hard every day and I can’t stand it anymore.
The gap between ideal and reality is really too big. The ideal battle is a battle with bullets and bullets on the battlefield, but the reality is very boring. Rush, rush, rush.
"Take a rest for half an hour and continue setting off!" the leading soldier gave the order. The mercenaries immediately seemed to have heard the good news and immediately fell to the ground to rest. Some lay in the hay and were about to sleep, while others
He leaned against the stone and started drinking water.
"Damn, I can finally rest. Boss, we are really unlucky. I heard that the other four teams still have good food and drink even if they work hard. Where are we now? We are doing the most tiring work and still
There's nothing good to eat to fill your stomach!" After Wei Tong sat down, he couldn't help complaining to Mu He. He leaned against the stone and had a split lip.
Wei Tong was still very thoughtful. Others were taking naps or drinking water during their breaks, but when he had nothing to do, he liked to hang around the Yuzhou soldiers, but he heard a lot of news. It turned out that under Guo Pinming Combat is the hardest part, and Guo Pinming does all the dirty work. It's like being taken advantage of.
Let’s just say that this time the war was most successful under Shen Feng’s hands, because Shen Feng’s side had the largest number of people, and it was also very close to Yuzhou, so the supplies were transferred very quickly. It took two days to set up the front line. Immediately they began to advance, and the mercenaries also followed the regular army to eat soup, and made a lot of benefits. The worst thing was Guo Pinming, who had to bear the heaviest tasks, and it was difficult to replenish food and drink. Even if he was fighting and traveling every day , it’s simply exhausting to death.
Wei Tong's heart suddenly became unbalanced. Obviously everyone was a mercenary, but now he was suffering a lot. He was traveling in the mountains all day long. Not to mention the suffering, he still couldn't get any benefits. It can be said that I got the lottery, and now I can't do anything except complain a few times.
When Yu Muhe heard the complaints from his men, he recalled the plan that his son had told him before, that he must perform diligently in the army, so at this time, he quickly persuaded Wei Tong beside him, saying: "Don't be like this now. We are dejected, maybe we can make meritorious deeds in the future? The rewards we will receive will definitely be very generous."
But when Wei Tong heard this, he looked at Yu Muhe in surprise and asked: "Boss, do you really believe what the union said? We are now being caught in this battle as if we were trying to catch a strong man. We are exhausted." It’s tiring work, so forget it if you don’t give up, now I have to work hard, anyway, I can’t stand it anymore!”
When Wei Tongtong heard that he had to work hard to make meritorious deeds, he immediately didn't dare. He was a man in his thirties and would not be a mercenary at all if he didn't want to support his family. Now that he was caught as a strong man, of course he was lazy as long as he could. Why keep trying?
Yu Muhe quickly persuaded and said: "Brother, listen to me, our life is very poor and hard now. Just the water and electricity bills cost a lot every month. We always need to consider our family members, right? So, as long as we By doing meritorious service, we can ask the city lord's palace to give us better treatment, so that everyone can live a good life, right?"
After hearing this, Wei Tongtong thought it was reasonable and stopped complaining, but he still refused to admit defeat and said: "I am doing this just for your sake, boss. If someone else had tried to persuade me, I would have done it." I don’t care at all!”
Yu Muhe said quickly: "Yes, yes, brother, you are the one giving me face. If I need to make meritorious deeds in the future, I will have to rely on you more."
When Wei Tong heard what his boss said, he felt very happy. Then, Wei Tong wanted to take a rest on the lawn, but strangely enough, it was already late autumn, and many trees in the mountains had lost their leaves. The only one left was still alive. The green ones are the pine trees, and a lot of the grass on the ground is dry, but the grass where Wei Tong was lying is full of green. Looking around, there are quite a lot of this kind of green grass.
Wei Tong lay down in the green grass, preparing to rest for a while under the rare shade. However, as soon as he lay down, Wei Tong felt his back was itchy. He couldn't help but reach out to scratch his back, but he scratched it from his back. It is a round thing. When you pick it up and take a closer look, you will see that it is an oval ball, like a small fruit.
"What the hell is this?" Wei Tong looked at this small yellow-white fruit, frowning and confused.
When Yu Muhe saw this thing, he quickly advised: "Throw away anything you don't recognize. Don't eat it randomly. If there are problems with eating, it will be troublesome."
According to Yu Zhijing, his incomplete evolution was caused by eating fruits brought back from the mountains. As a result, he became terminally ill at a young age. If he could not find a way to complete his evolution, he would only be alive for twenty years at most.
He could survive, so Yu Muhe no longer dared to take back things he didn't know casually, especially he couldn't let his children eat indiscriminately.
Some things may seem harmless, but as long as they are eaten, they will lead to a lifetime of despair.
When Yu Muhe nervously asked Wei Tong to throw away the fruit in his hand, Cai He passed by and heard Yu Muhe's nervous words and couldn't help but said: "What two bumpkins from the city?
The thing is a phoenix egg, and everyone in the countryside knows it, but you are so nervous!"
Cai He was wearing Yuzhou's standard clothing, and there were special decorations on his body. At a glance, it was obvious that he was an officer in the army.
Cai He just passed by here and was about to take a rest when he saw two mercenaries looking at a fruit nervously. It had a yellow-white skin and was stained with soil. It was only as big as two fingers and was about the same size as a small potato.
Da. Suddenly Cai He couldn't help it. These city people had been separated from the masses for too long, so they didn't even know such a little thing.
Yu Muhe looked at Cai He's clothes and saw that he was an officer in the military camp. He didn't dare to offend him and asked quickly: "Brother, do you think this is a phoenix egg? What is it?"
We haven't seen anything before, please enlighten us."
Cai He, a villager, was immediately happy when a city man asked him a question for the first time. After his vanity was satisfied, he did not hesitate to teach him and said directly: "The plant you are leaning on is called kidney fern. The plant you are holding is
The fruit is actually not a fruit, but the tuber of the kidney fern, which is the same part as the potato. It contains a lot of carbohydrates, so it’s okay to eat it.”
Yu Muhe continued to ask: "Have you eaten it?"
Cai He nodded and said, "I've eaten it before, and it tastes just average. It's not as delicious as fried potatoes anyway. Of course, it's been more than ten years and I can't remember how it tastes."
When Cai He was a child, he grew up in a village. When he was hungry, he liked to look for food in the mountains. There were quite a lot of edible things on the mountains, such as wild fruits, field peas, snakeberries, and small grains like this.
The small tubers don't taste very good, but they are enough to eat.
Yu Muhe nodded, suddenly realized, and said: "So that's it, I was too worried, mainly because my child got sick after eating strange fruits. Therefore, once I was bitten by a snake, I was afraid of well ropes for ten years. It's really
Don’t dare to eat randomly.”
Cai He shrugged and said, "You should rest quickly. We will be on our way again in half an hour, so don't delay."
Yu Muhe said nothing and watched Cai He leave.
But Wei Tong became a little angry, and quietly said to Mu He: "Boss, don't you think this person knows a little more than us? What's so great about him being so arrogant?"
Yu Muhe said quickly: "Okay, okay, take a rest quickly, we have to go on the road later."
Wei Tong shrugged and shook his head helplessly. He peeled the phoenix egg without cooking it, threw it into his mouth and started eating it raw. Since this thing is mainly carbohydrate, it means it can replenish energy. Anyway
Eat something to fill your stomach.
Maybe in the past, even the dogs on the roadside wouldn't even take a look at such small things, but now, as long as it can supplement the ability, anything is good, especially in the city, as long as there is food, then whatever is enough
, He who has food is the master.
Yu Muhe watched helplessly as his brother ate the so-called phoenix egg, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. However, after Wei Tong ate the phoenix egg for a while, nothing happened, so he felt relieved.
It seems that not every crop is so dangerous.
After Wei Tong finished eating the phoenix eggs in his hand, he didn't give up. Although the taste was a bit bad, it could fill his stomach. He had been traveling all day and the food he ate in the morning was almost digested by noon. He didn't want to replenish it now.
If you have a little energy, there will really be nothing left in your stomach after a while.
So Wei Tong immediately called some of his close friends and started digging for the green kidney ferns on the mountain. As soon as they dug out the tubers underground, they immediately stuffed them into his mouth.
Wei Tong led his people to look for food on the mountain. Some people joined in and wanted to eat more food, but more people just fell asleep. If you don't rest at this time, who will be there?
Take your time digging tubers. No one can fill their stomachs with such a small amount of energy in tubers. Instead of spending half an hour digging tubers, it is better to take a good nap. This will help restore your physical strength.
Bigger.
When the soldiers saw the behavior of the mercenaries, they were even more disdainful. They said to themselves: "I am complaining after traveling so far. It seems that there is a lack of training. Now I have the physical strength to dig tubers. I am really used to it!"
Yu Muhe leaned on the stone, frowning and thinking, how can he achieve meritorious service next? Only after meritorious service can he make a request and establish prestige. Although he may not have much ability in the city by then, but outside Yuzhou City, he will definitely have
It can dominate one side.
However, how can it be so easy to perform meritorious service? Now we have to rush on the road. Unless we can increase the marching speed, otherwise, the opportunity to perform meritorious service will not appear.
"Oh, it's so difficult. My IQ is not as good as my son's. I can't think of anything!" Yu Muhe thought for a long time, but still couldn't think of anything, and couldn't help but feel helpless.
Yu Muhe found that he had failed in his evolution. Although he was an evolver, his IQ had not evolved. As a result, he had to discuss everything with his son first and wait until the discussion was over before making a decision. However, genius also comes with a price.
, true geniuses often die young.
