When Feng Jiuer went back, the mute slave brought chicken soup over as expected.
Seeing the mute slave who was still making her bed, Jiuer said: "Mute slave, we don't have much food. Don't waste it on me in the future. I don't have a big appetite."
"I caught this on the road today, and these mushrooms and wild vegetables were all picked on the road."
The mute slave actually knew that they did not have much food, but he did not want to see Jiu'er eating in such a rough way, so he kept an eye on it along the way.
"But..." "Try to see if it smells good."
The mute slave didn't listen to her at all. He brought the chicken soup and put it directly in front of her.
Feng Jiuer was almost starved to death by the smell! I never thought chicken soup was delicious before, but now, in these days when eating fresh meat has become a luxury, this chicken soup has simply become the most delicious thing in the world.
of delicacies.
Seeing her greedy look, a smile flashed across the eyes of the mute slave, and he put the soup bowl into her hand.
Since the meat is already in her mouth, it would be useless if she doesn't eat it. If she doesn't watch her eat it, the mute slave won't give up.
So, let’s eat.
After Jiuer found an excuse for himself that he had to eat, he immediately picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
This pheasant is not big, it is a small one, and it does not take long to stew, but the meat is tender and really delicious.
"What condiments did you put in?
It smells so good!”
These days, there are actually very few condiments, just salt, sugar, and some spicy things.
But this bowl of soup had a sweet aroma that was clearly something I had never tasted before.
"On the way here, I saw mint seeds, so I picked some and put them into the soup."
Mint seeds are not mint, the taste is completely different.
Jiu'er didn't know what it was, but the mute slave's cooking skills were truly outstanding.
"Hey, what is this?"
Just after finishing a bowl of soup, Feng Jiuer suddenly noticed the rope that the mute slave tied to the tree branch.
It's not a rope or a bark, it's thin, what on earth is it?
She put down the bowl and walked over, pulling gently. Unexpectedly, this thin thing was actually quite strong.
I pulled hard again, but it still didn't break.
"It's a kind of grass. I can't tell what kind of grass it is. It's not enough. I saw it was tough enough, so I cut it back and used it."
"Where did you get it?"
Something flashed in Jiu'er's eyes, and she became excited instantly.
"This thing is useful!"
"It's not far from here."
"Take me there, I'm going to get a big bundle back."
Feng Jiuer stood up.
The mute slave didn't know what she was going to do with it, so he could only accompany her out of the tent.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they went out, they saw Xue Gu and Qiao Mu arriving, followed by Mu Mu and Jiu Qing.
Knowing that they must have something important to discuss with Feng Jiuer, Ya Nu said: "I'll just go and get it back for you."
"Take a few brothers with you, the more you can get, the better."
Even Mu Mu and Jiu Qing were here, so Jiu'er naturally knew that there must be something important.
The mute slave nodded, turned and left.
Qiao Mu wanted to catch up and help, but the matter was a bit urgent, so she had to put aside her personal feelings first.
"shortcut?"
Several people entered the tent that the mute slave had set up and could barely sit together.
Seeing the terrain map that Mu Mu spread out, Feng Jiuer was surprised: "Where did you find it?"
"Mr. Lanyue from the No. 1 Village in the World sent someone to deliver it. He just arrived."
Uncle! However, there were many people here and Feng Jiuer didn’t say anything.
In fact, her uncle knew some things about the Feng Clan, and Feng Jiuer could feel it. However, her uncle seemed to have a special hatred for the Feng Clan, even with a feeling of hatred.
Therefore, Feng Jiuer did not ask him too much about the Feng clan.
This topographic map... "Through this mountain system, you will reach a place called Black Pool. By taking a boat through the Black Pool, you can reach the Phoenix Clan."
Mu Mu had thoroughly analyzed the terrain map, but he didn't expect that there would be such a quick way to reach the Feng Clan.
However, passing through this mountain system is not easy in itself.
The mountains are full of bandits, and their numbers are too numerous to count.
What's more, although there are topographic maps, they are actually not familiar with everything in the mountains.
If the two sides really wanted to go to war, they would not have the upper hand.
But the route indicated by this topographic map was indeed much faster than their original route.
If there are no accidents, we will definitely be able to arrive within half a month, maybe within ten days.
But if we stick to the original plan, we can arrive within a month, which is not bad.
After all, after passing through the edge of the mountain system, you still have to pass through the Nanman region.
In fact, the Nanman region is also a very dangerous place, and the level of danger is not necessarily lower than here.
Feng Jiuer agreed to take shortcuts.
She quietly raised her head and glanced at Jiu Qing.
Jiu Qing just sat quietly aside, seemingly concentrating on studying the terrain map and not paying attention to her gaze.
If Jiu Qing is really the Nine Emperors Uncle, then the longer he leaves Beimu Country, the more dangerous half of his country will be.
Therefore, being able to shorten the time is definitely a good thing for Feng Jiuer.
When there is not much difference in the risk between the two choices, she must give priority to safeguarding the interests of Uncle Nine Emperors.
Mu Mu was also studying the terrain map. After a while, he looked at Jiu Qing and said, "Can you ensure her safety?"
Jiu Qing didn't even raise her eyes: "Not necessarily."
Mu Mu frowned. If he couldn't guarantee the girl's safety, then the future would be really unpredictable.
"Deep in the mountains, the paths are complicated, and no one can guarantee anything."
Xue Gu glanced at Jiu Qing, then looked at Mu Mu and said: "The most important thing is that the owner of Lanyue Villa did not give a specific road map to the place called Black Pool."
Even if it is a waterway, you must have a route map, otherwise, the waterway is actually more dangerous than the land route.
"The person who sent the letter said that the owner of the village does not have a road map to Blackpool, but some local mountain people should know the way."
"But what if they don't want to tell us?"
The tree is a bit big.
Local mountain people, aren't these bandits?
"Mr. Lanyue has analyzed the routes of both parties. He believes that the Nanman area may not be easy to navigate."
Nanman, a place famous for cultivating poisonous insects, seems to be more dangerous.
Feng Jiuer had been harmed by poison for so long before, and she already had an instinctive fear of things like poison.
Looking at her face, Jiu Qing was silent for a moment and then said: "Then we will go through this mountain and not go through the southern barbarians."
Things seemed to be settled like this.
Mu Mu continued to lead people on patrol, and Jiu Qing disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Xue Gu returned to her resting place, leaving Qiao Mu behind Feng Jiuer, still full of doubts.
She suddenly grabbed Feng Jiu'er's sleeve: "Have you noticed that Mu Mu and Xue Gu seem to listen to Jiu Qing's words, what's going on?"
