After walking for a day, at night, when Chongyun went to collect firewood, Zhong Mo took the hammock that Xinghuo had given them and found a few trees to hang it up.
"It seems that this time I have to go back to the master to learn the method of [Dongtian]. It is really inconvenient to carry so many things with me every time."
After a while, Chongyun came back with a pile of firewood. He took out three petals of the Flame Flower and started a fire. The fire immediately illuminated the area.
Zhong Mo took out the novel that Chongyun gave her during the day and read it with gusto. After reading a little during the day, she became completely addicted to it, but because she had to be on the road, she couldn't take any time off.
Now that she was finally free, Zhong Mo lit up the fire and read the novel in his hand with gusto, until Chong Yun brought the food in front of her.
"It's time to eat! Xiaomo, can you watch it after eating?"
"He's dead, please. I don't want to read it. The villain is clearly so oppressive, so why did the protagonist defeat him in one go?
And what about the story after the protagonist was discovered by his family and ran away? Why is it gone? Chongyun, do you have any follow-up stories?"
Chongyun handed the bowl to Zhong Mo and said: "This is the last book. If you want to follow up, you may have to wait until Wangshu Inn to go to Xingqiu to ask for it. But now, let's eat first."
"Yeah." Zhong Mo put down the book, picked up the bowl handed over by Chong Yun and took a bite, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Chongyun, I didn't expect you to be quite talented in cooking?"
"Do you still have an appetite? I'm worried that you can't get used to it? Haha, after all, you have to master some life skills when you are alone outside. I learned this from Xiangling."
"Xiang Ling is the chef of Wanmin Tang! If I have a chance, I will take you to Wanmin Tang to try the food she cooks. It is much more delicious than what I cook."
"Then it's agreed?"
"Well, let's take a rest after eating. We have to travel tomorrow."
Zhong Mo quietly opened her eyes, glanced at Chongyun, and found that Chongyun seemed to have fallen asleep. She quietly rolled down the hammock, secretly took out the novel that Chongyun had just given her, and secretly held it by the light of the fire.
Look.
"Ahem."
Just when Zhong Mo was looking fascinated, a human voice suddenly sounded in her ears, and she recognized it as Chongyun's voice. Zhong Mo was like a child who got up in the middle of the night to play games secretly and was caught by his parents. He read the novel
Once he got together, he hid behind his back and gave an awkward smile to Zhongyun.
"Chongyun, um, you haven't slept yet?"
"Shh." Chongyun didn't seem to care about Zhong Mo secretly getting up to read a novel in the middle of the night, but motioned for her to keep her voice down.
Chongyun went over and extinguished the fire on the ground, and the surroundings became dark again. After adapting to the darkness, the moonlight in the sky shone down, and I could barely see the surrounding situation clearly.
"Keep your voice down, there's something going on."
Zhong Mo also lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Put your things away and follow me."
After packing his things, Zhong Mo followed Chong Yun and climbed to a big tree. He stood on a high place and watched the movement coming from the depths of the forest not far away. After a while, Zhong Mo could clearly see what the things were.
It turned out to be a pack of wolves. The pack of wolves was actually marching in a neat line. Each wolf followed the wolf in front quietly, without howling or commotion, just slowly walking under the white moonlight.
Walk forward.
Looking at this large group of wolves, Zhong Mo felt that his breathing had stopped.
"These are rock wolves, which live in groups in mountainous areas with exposed rocks. They can directly obtain energy from exposed surface ores.
In the past, because humans gathered in large numbers to reclaim mountains and forests, they followed humans and settled on the barren hills left behind by humans, especially around Mingyun Town."
"Mingyun Town?"
"It was a small town that developed because of mining. It was east of Wangshu Inn and north of Yaoguang Beach. Later, because the mineral resources were gradually exploited, the town also declined.
When humans evacuated, they destroyed the only bridge connecting Guiliyuan, completely isolating Mingyun Town and Guiliyuan.
The wolves should have migrated from Mingyun Town. However, the bridge has been damaged. How could the wolves cross a river hundreds of meters deep?"
"What should we do? Chongyun, do you think this wolf is worth anything?"
"Don't be stupid, the two of us together are not enough for these wolves. Their teeth can crush even the hardest ore."
"Oh..." Zhong Mo looked a little frustrated.
"We must inform Liyue officials about the situation here. It is too dangerous to leave these wolves alone."
Liyue Port, Qunyu Pavilion.
A girl with ice-blue hair and a pair of horns on her head carried a pile of documents and rushed straight into the largest and most luxurious room in Qunyu Pavilion.
"Lord Ningguang!"
On a wooden board covered with various business information, a white-haired woman wearing a golden cheongsam stood there, analyzing the business information on the board. When she heard someone calling her, she stopped her thoughts and looked back.
her people.
"What's wrong? Miss Gan Yu? Do you have any new information?"
As the saying goes, the iron-clad secretary is the seven-star secretary, and the seven-star secretary is the running water. Over the past thousands of years, the seven stars have changed one after another, but the secretary will always be the same secretary.
In fact, Gan Yu, this confused-looking girl with horns, can be regarded as the most powerful person in the huge country of Liyue after the King of Yan, but she has no idea in this regard.
That's all.
Every Seven Stars maintain the most basic respect for Gan Yu, and Ning Guang is no exception.
"It's like this. We have news about the Qianyan Army that Gui Li originally sent to keep an eye on the Fools."
"Oh? Could it be that the Fools deliberately released false news? I just hope they can restrict the Fools a little, but I don't expect them to really send back any useful news."
"It's not news from the Fools, but they discovered that the passage to Mingyun Town has been repaired, and now a large number of rock wolves are pouring into Guiliyuan from Mingyun Town."
"How many days ago was the news?" Ningguang asked.
"Judging from the records on the paper, it happened three days ago."
"Three days? Then the wolves should have arrived at the grassland south of Wangshu Inn by now."
Ning Guang looked at the map of Liyue on the wall, lowered his head and thought.
"Summer has just passed and autumn has just entered. The southeast wind has not yet ended. Let Beidou ride the wind directly from Guyun Pavilion to the north. It should be possible to arrive in three days. Go directly to the link entrance to cut off the wolves' retreat to avoid the wolves.
A steady stream of people came to Guiliyuan.
Let the Qianyan Army of Wangshu Inn set up defenses at the entrance of the bridge and not allow any wolves to enter the vicinity of Wangshu Inn. In addition, prepare various ores that rock wolves like and use them as floating bridges to introduce the wolves into the Bishuiyuan and Cuijuepo areas.
.Then cut off the back road and trap them on the opposite side."
Then she sat down, picked up the pen, and wrote two chapters of paper.
"Miss Ganyu."
"Lord Ningguang, please speak."
"Please help me give this one to the captain of the Death Omen Star, and this one to the Qianyan Army at Wangshu Inn. Also, call Yuhengxing for me."
"Okay, Lord Ningguang."
Gan Yu put the specific information on Ningguang's table, picked up the two letters and walked out. Gan Yu stood on the rooftop outside Qunyu Pavilion, the frost in his hands condensed, freezing the two long tubes of paper.
stand up.
The surface of the frozen note was continuously covered with frost, and soon it turned into two arrows made of frost.
Gan Yu raised her hand and made a move, golden light spots condensed in her hand, summoning a white and purple bow. This bow was a gift to the emperor from Lord Barbatos of Mondstadt who visited Liyue thousands of years ago.
, and later the emperor gave this bow to himself.
Gan Yu bent the bow and set an arrow. The power of frost condensed on the arrow, showing a faint lotus-like bloom. Blue-white light flew out from the bow, flying towards Guyun Pavilion with indomitable power.
Gan Yu changed direction and shot another arrow in the direction of Wangshu Inn. The arrow with the condensed light command flew towards its target.
