However, he was still a little worried, "Send people to test the passage through the narrow valley first, and retreat immediately if something is wrong."
"yes."
So Yewu sent two people to test the way forward...
As soon as the two people stepped into the narrow valley, rocks fell from the narrow valley. Needless to say, when Ye Xiaohan saw this, he immediately galloped away and turned to the mountain trail.
The person who set up an ambush went after Ye Xiaohan, but was stopped by a formation of rocks on the mountain trail... Feng Siyan looked at the formation of rocks that suddenly appeared, and he felt a little strange!
It was not easy to break through this stone formation. It took about a quarter of an hour for Feng Siyan and others to break through the stone formation.
But where is the trace of Ye Xiaohan?
"Right Prime Minister, Ye Xiaohan escaped. He took a trail instead. What should we do? If we chase him along the trail, we probably won't be able to catch him..."
Feng Siyan, "The small road cannot lead to the Kingdom of the Underworld. He still has to take the main road. If we stop him from the main road, we must get in front of him!"
"yes!"
…
After going all this way, Ye Xiaohan finally understood what the red circles on the topographic map meant!
They are all reminders of where he set up an ambush!
There were people setting a trap for him along the way.
Moreover, it was the Dongyue Kingdom's imperial guards headed by Feng Siyan who were setting him up!
At first, he didn't believe the marks on the topographic map and was dubious. However, after a second verification, he found that the ambush points on the topographic map were all real.
And the person who gave him the map was really helping him go to the Kingdom of the Underworld. Otherwise, he would have been killed during the first two ambush attempts.
When he passed the second ambush point, he was already planning to fight to the death. He knew that the guards were waiting for him on the mountain and would release arrows as soon as they approached.
Unexpectedly, thick smoke suddenly rose from the mountain.
The thick smoke turned out to be psychedelic smoke. There was no movement on the mountain for a long time, so Ye Xiaohan easily passed the second ambush point without losing any soldiers!
Feng Siyan and others were stunned for a quarter of an hour before they woke up.
The sudden thick smoke made everyone unprepared and fell down! Now Feng Siyan has determined that an expert is helping Ye Xiaohan escape to the Kingdom of the Underworld...
The leader of the imperial guards asked anxiously, "Right Prime Minister, what should we do? We have been delayed for so long, and Ye Xiaohan may have fled to the Kingdom of the Underworld..."
"You still have time, chase him! However, this is our last chance, we must stop him at the border! Capture him alive!"
…
The border between the North and the Kingdom of the Underworld.
Ye Xiaohan galloped all the way and finally escaped to the border. The other side of the river was the Kingdom of the Underworld.
"Master, the Kingdom of the Underworld is ahead. We can already see the camp of the Underworld... As long as we cross this river, we can reach the Kingdom of the Underworld."
Yewu said excitedly.
But Yewu's excitement did not last long, because he found that there was nothing to cross the river, no boat and certainly no bridge.
"Master...how do we cross the river?"
Ye Xiaohan saw that the river was frozen. If the ice was solid, he could walk across it on the ice...
But he didn't know if the ice was solid. If he stepped on it, the ice was not hard enough and he was afraid he would sink into the ice cellar.
Ye Xiaohan was about to take out the map to see if there were any reminders about crossing the river, when the pursuers from the Dongyue Kingdom arrived, led by Feng Siyan.
Feng Siyan thought he could catch Ye Xiaohan at the first ambush point, and at most the third ambush point.
He never expected that he would chase Ye Xiaohan to the border.
