Shu Blossoms

Chapter 634 Dilemma
Mou Qing and Xinggui stopped and went, they didn't even finish half of the distance all day, and Xinggui kept urging them.

Mou Qing lay down by the river and drank some water, looked up at Xinggui's anxious face, smiled imperceptibly, leaned against the stone and asked, "How long will we be there?"

Xinggui was puzzled when he heard this, "Didn't you come from General Sun's army? Why don't you seem to know the way?"

Mou Qing said helplessly: "It is impossible for General Sun's army to stand still for several days, and his army deployment will not tell me about this unknown person. I dare say that the position when I left is definitely different from the position where you met them, and even , not the same army!"

"Why is it not an army? Could it be that besides General Sun's army, other troops have also come to Jiujiang?" Xinggui felt that it was reasonable, and couldn't help showing anxiety.

"I heard that General Sun seems to have divided the [-] army into two, and his confidants led him to surround you in another direction. If the encirclement is successful, you will be blocked in Jiujiang City or outside Hongdu County. Defeat Han Shiying!"

What Mou Qing said was very firm, Xinggui felt that he did not sound like what he had heard, and thought that General Sun's army was more than double that of Han Shiying's army, and he felt worried.

Mou Qing smiled and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? You seem to have something on your mind!"

Xinggui came back to his senses and pretended to be calm and explained, "I'm just worried. Where should I find General Sun now? General Xu has an important trust and I will give it to General Sun. If General Xu and General Sun can cooperate internally and externally, General Sun will make great contributions in suppressing the rebellion. , I also contributed a little bit."

Mou Qing nodded, seeming to believe his words, and pondered: "Then let's continue walking over there to try our luck, we should be able to meet one of them, but the general of the other team may not know me. I don't know if you can trust us!"

"I have a letter written by General Xu, it must be possible!" Xinggui was also a little uncertain, wondering if it was written by General Xu.

Under Xinggui's urging, Mu Qing continued on his way. He intentionally or unintentionally changed their direction and led them to the east.

At night, Mou Qing's body was unable to climb the tree at all, so Xinggui could only pick up dry firewood and set up a fire. Xinggui didn't dare to go into the depths of the forest alone. He stuck two fish in the river, and the two of them roasted and wrapped their stomachs .

Afterwards, the weak Mou Qing lay on the dry grass and started snoring quickly, leaving only Xinggui watching him as he fell asleep, his eyes flickering.

Xinggui woke up at the dawn of the next day, kept watch all night, and fell asleep for less than an hour. When he woke up, he looked at Mou Qing who was still sleeping soundly. Anger flashed in his eyes, and he suppressed it again.

He walked over and gave Mou Qing a push, "Get up and hurry!"

Mou Qing gave a naive 'huh', Xinggui ignored him and went directly to the river to wash.Naturally, he didn't see the person behind him looking at him with clear eyes.

Xinggui walked to the river bank and was about to bend down to lift the water when he suddenly found a big footprint in the wet and soft soil by the river bank. Xinggui lifted his foot up to compare and found that his foot was several times bigger. He was shocked again and again. He backed away, not daring to touch the footprints again, not even daring to drink the water, and ran back in a hurry, dragging Mou Qing along.

Mou Qing was caught off guard and almost fell to the ground, "What happened?"

"There are big worms coming here to drink water, and when they wake up in a while, we won't be able to leave even if we want to!" Xinggui walked forward with fear on his face, and Mou Qing followed behind with a smile.

They walked up to the sun, and Mou Qing couldn't walk any longer, so he lay down panting heavily, and asked Xinggui, "Have you eaten?"

Xinggui's face sank slightly, he patted himself, and said angrily, "Where can I find food?"

Mou Qing was not dissatisfied with his anger, but looked at the road and said softly: "We have been walking for almost two days, and we should have found out yesterday that we are missing, are you looking for us soon?"

Xinggui looked slightly stagnant, took two deep breaths, and said in a muffled voice: "Be careful yourself, I'll go find something to eat!"

Although the wound on his body was milder, but after all, he hadn't taken care of it well, and the wound still hurt from time to time. The wound that was about to heal when he caught fish yesterday burst open again, and his clothes were slightly wet with blood.

But Mou Qing's injury was more serious, he was almost breathless at that time, if not for the bottle of golden sore medicine given by the military adviser before leaving, he would have collapsed long ago!
Xinggui picked some wild fruits and hurried back. When he came back, he found that Mou Qing was no longer beside the big rock. He was startled and looked around quickly.

There seemed to be a fighting sound not far away, looking for the sound and rushing over, I found that Mou Qing was fighting with someone.

He quickly put down the wild fruit and ran over, blocking Mou Qing behind him, and asked solemnly, "What's going on?"

"This person came from the east, and his sneakiness is very suspicious!" Mou Qing stepped back and said in a deep voice.

Just as he was about to complain that he shouldn't have made a fuss, he heard the person on the other side exclaim, "Brother Xinggui!"

Xinggui subconsciously raised his head to look at the person opposite, and after identifying him, he found that this person was Shitou under General Sun's command, "Shitou, why are you here?"

Sun Jiang had a personal relationship with Xinggui's Shangguan, the two often drank together, came and went, and met Xinggui and Shitou several times, they were fairly familiar with each other.

Shitou was about to answer: "Jiang Sun and other brothers have been arrested, I want to report back."

After he finished speaking, he noticed something was wrong, pointed at Mou Qing and asked, "Brother Xinggui, who is he, why are you not in the barracks, what are you doing here?"

Standing behind them, Mu Qing crossed his arms and looked at Xinggui as if he was watching a show, as if he was curious about how he would explain it to his former brother.

Sure enough, Xinggui was confused by the question, he hesitated for a while, and Shitou's expression gradually became vigilant, "Are you sneaking out? Are you going to betray the Han family army?"

Xinggui quickly explained, "Don't talk nonsense, the Second General has always been strict in running the army, how can I sneak out of the barracks!"

"Then why are you here!" Stone was not satisfied with this explanation, and was still aggressive.

"You don't know, the military adviser personally sent us out of the camp to spy on the military situation." Xinggui only said one sentence, glanced behind him with some trepidation, gritted his teeth, turned and walked to Mou Qing and whispered: "Our affairs cannot be ignored. If someone notices, I will stabilize him first, and you go eat some fruit!"

Mou Qing sneered: "Since you are already an enemy, just kill him, why bother!"

Xinggui froze, feeling faintly chilled in his heart, took a deep breath and tried to persuade him in a calm and warm voice, "Your body is not as good as a rag now, you just moved your hands with force, do you still have some strength? I Although his injury is lighter than yours, he is not sure to win him. He is the bravest soldier under General Sun! And you just heard that he sneaked out from the barracks of the Great Zhou Army, so you must know where they are now , let alone kill him hastily!"

Mou Qing raised his eyebrows noncommittally, but he didn't insist on killing him again, Xinggui heaved a sigh of relief, grabbed a handful of fruit and walked towards the stone.

"Shitou, eat some fruit and listen to me slowly!" Xinggui pulled Shishi a little further away, and said in a low voice, "I met that man on the road, and I suspect he might be from the Great Zhou Army."

Only those generals under Han Shiying's command saw Mou Qing being arrested, and no one else knew what he looked like.
