Chapter 236 The Water Pool
Because Lei Long's little guard was there, Huang Ming said: "Master, why don't we go back and fight them?"

The guards of the Zhen Guogong's mansion lifted their spirits, and they all looked at Ren Ning with eagerness in their eyes.

These days, they have been passively beaten and can only hide in Tibet. They have already had enough of the birds in Xiliang.

Although there are thousands of people chasing from the other side, and only one-third from the own side, the guards of the Zhen Guogong Mansion are not afraid.

"No hurry, wait until next time."

Ren Ning shook his head and refused.

"We're not afraid of them. It's just that the brothers have been hungry for a while, and their physical strength is relatively lacking. Everyone should take the meat back to replenish their physical strength, and come back later to compete with the Xiliang people."

Everyone understood, turned around and left quietly.

Ren Ning fell behind, using trees to set up a few ecstasy arrays to cover up the whereabouts of the crowd, and then disappeared on the west mountain.

The next day, the sky was bright.

Yingxiang stared expressionlessly at the more than twenty half-burned corpses in front of him, and felt irritable after hearing the loss report.

The men sent to the west mountain found nothing except the hidden sentry that they had killed.Even where the other party came from, he still didn't know anything.

"Where are our hounds, can't find where these cloud-dropped mice have gone?" he asked.

The guards around him looked embarrassed, and finally shook their heads silently.

The hunting dogs of the tribe started from the foot of the hill in the east, looking for the smell of grease left by dried beef and mutton, and chased westward all the way.However, after chasing to the top of Xishan Mountain, they lost their way all of a sudden, and finally had to turn around on the top of the mountain.

The smell of grease and the footprints of the enemy seemed to disappear all at once.No matter how the dozens of hounds searched for it, they couldn't find the slightest trace.

"How is it possible?" Ying Xiang couldn't believe it, "Could it be that they can still fly away with heavy dried meat?"

cough.

A guard coughed lightly.

"Young patriarch, it's also possible that our soldiers were wandering around on the western mountain looking for clues, which resulted in the confusion of the atmosphere in the mountain. When the hounds arrived, it was impossible to tell who was the enemy."

Ying Xiang's face was even more ugly.

So it was his command that was wrong?

At this moment, a panicked call suddenly came from the front.

"Young patriarch, something is wrong in the east."

Yingxiang was refreshed and strode over.

However, before taking a few steps, he was stopped by several guards.

"Young patriarch, don't go there yet." The man's face was full of panic.

"Before, everyone was only focused on putting out the fire and didn't pay attention to other things. I just found a few strange rotten dried meat in the fire."

He swallowed, "It seems that the Yunchui people brought these jerky meats, and deliberately hid them in the fire, as if they deliberately didn't let us notice them at the first time."

"How weird?" Ying Xiang's heart skipped a beat.

As the pioneer of Xiliang, his Blood Moon tribe has been stuck in the Benlu tribe and cannot advance eastward first. In the end, he led a small tribe and followed the Chinese army around the Yanzhen Fortress, and then came to the Luoxia Mountains.

The reason for all this is not only due to the tenacity and bravery of the soldiers in the fortress, but also because of a word that turns people's faces.

Epidemic!

Therefore, when they heard adjectives such as weird, rotten, and unapproachable, all Xiliang generals couldn't help but shudder.

The little soldier who came to report focused on describing the appearance of the jerky, and the faces of the blood moon people changed drastically when they heard it.

Yingxiang made a decisive decision even more.

"Let Doctor Luo check the condition of the jerky. No matter who they are, all the people involved in fighting the fire should immediately isolate themselves in place and not move around without permission, otherwise they will be killed. Everyone else walked around them and retreated [-] miles to set up camp again. "

No one questioned.

To deal with the epidemic, there is almost no other way except to isolate and stay away.

The entire Blood Moon camp immediately moved into action impatiently.

Those who pull carts pull carts, those who drive livestock drive livestock, those who move houses move houses, and those who drive troops march.

In the morning, the endless livestock and tents in the sleepy dragon's den had been swept away, and they moved collectively to a small valley about twenty miles to the east.

The others were busy, Ying Xiang came out and walked around, frowning even more.

It was not without reason that he chose to camp in the sleepy dragon's den before.

In the vast Luoxia Mountain, it is not easy to find a place to spend the night when the east-west line caravan passes through this place.The Kunlong's Nest has an open terrain and abundant water sources, which is most suitable for large troops to camp.

The unnamed small valley in front of me is not big, and the tents can only be lined up along the foot of the mountain.There are lush mountains and forests on both sides, which makes Ying Xiang feel guilty just looking at them.

"Young patriarch, this place looks dangerous, why don't we retreat a little longer." Someone suggested.

Yingxiang shook his head silently.

He also wants to quit.It's just that unless they completely exit the Luoxia Mountains and return to Dingxi County, there is no good place to camp.

"Hurry up and let Dr. Luo, who is staying behind in the trapped dragon's nest, find out what those jerky are?" he said.

The guard responded and quickly sent someone to the east.

However, it didn't take long before news came.

"Young Patriarch, Dr. Luo seems to have caught the epidemic."

"As if?" Yingxiang was furious: "If it is infected, it is infected, and if it is not infected, it is not infected. What is it like?"

"It's like this." The soldier who reported the letter trembled in fright, and hurriedly talked about what he had seen and heard.

Because of the isolation and ban, he was a little far away from the pool of the trapped dragon's nest, so he couldn't see it very accurately.

I only saw Dr. Luo fetching water from the stream by himself, presumably for brewing medicine or testing.As a result, as soon as the person reached the water's edge, he fell headlong into the water and could not climb up again.

Pool?

Ying Xiang pondered.

When the team first arrived at the Sleepy Dragon's Nest, he had inspected the surrounding environment and understood the water pool of the Sleepy Dragon's Nest.

The Yunchui people also built a dam downstream of the stream to provide drinking water for the caravan staying here.So the pool is both deep and wide.

"Maybe Dr. Luo's feet slipped, or there were people in the water?" he said.

Xiao Bing shook his head and said firmly, "It can't be slippery feet."

Few people in Xiliang are good at water, and they all have a kind of fear of deep water.

Doctor Luo is not very old, he can call for help the moment he slips into the water.However, there was no sound without a word.

"And the little one and a few clansmen have been staring at it from a distance. There is absolutely no one floating in that pool, unless he can live in the water like a fish."

Ugh.

Ying Xiang sighed, frowning so much that he could kill a mosquito.

"Has Doctor Luo caught it now?" He asked with luck.

Xiao Bing nodded, "The man has been fished up, and there is no wound on his body. It's like he was unconscious before falling into the water."

Yingxiang finally gave up.

He waved his hand helplessly, telling Xiao Bing to go back and continue to stare.

"Order, let all brothers be more energetic, whether they are eating, drinking or sleeping. It is very likely that the Yunchui people will sneak in and attack at any time."

It was night again, and Lei Er finally returned to the camp on the top of the mountain.

"Old Lei, did you fall into the water?" Huang Ming was a little weird, and quickly brought a bowl of hot soup, "Drink some beef soup to warm up first."

It was just the turn of spring and summer, and the weather was still quite cold at night.

Lei Er picked up the bowl hahaha, "Didn't you just keep going, your body was so dirty, so you took a bath in the water."

"Aren't you worried that Xiliang people will follow the fire to the camp?" He asked curiously.

Huang Ming, who was full of food and drink, didn't care, and said carelessly: "With Lao Ren here, I'm afraid of hair."

Right now, he is still hoping that the people from Xiliang will touch him, just in time for a good fight.
