Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 359
At night, the night is dark and the cool breeze blows.

Hedong County, Dongyuan City.

On the outskirts of the northwest, about twenty miles away, on a gentle hill, there is a caravan stationed, lighting a fire and cooking.

This is a caravan that seems to have about a hundred people. They camped at the lee of the left side of the hill. The place is very large. They lit more than ten bonfires.

The night in late autumn was very cold, and everyone in the caravan gathered around a bonfire to keep warm.

"Crack!"

Mu Jing sat alone in front of a bonfire, broke off a branch with both hands, and threw it into the bonfire. The flames from the bonfire reflected his face one by one, revealing the outline of his facial features.

After three consecutive days of rushing, he also felt a little tired.

But exhaustion was less than the thoughts in his head.

He is simulating various persuasion schemes at this moment.

Leaving the capital at this time is naturally something that has to be done.

He wants to talk about surrendering the Baibo Yellow Turban Army.

"My lord, the time for us to set up camp is a bit tight. You haven't eaten all day. Let's make do with it first. Eat some dry food to fill your stomach!" Huo Shao came over and brought up a piece of rice cake.

"No, this rice cake is too hard, my son, let me cook it for you."

The rice cakes were dry and hard. Huo Shao saw the iron pot hanging on the campfire boiling water, thought for a while, and directly smashed the rice cakes in. After boiling, it turned into balls of rice paste, although the taste was not good. It's ok, but it's easier to swallow this way.

"It's okay, as long as you can fill your stomach, you don't have to be particular about going out!"

Mujing didn't pay much attention, picked up the wooden spoon, and started eating.

"Hehe, since when did Shizi Mu like so much a person who is so particular about being so careless!"

At this time, a handsome young man strode up, wearing a white robe, with red lips and white teeth, and a slight smile, sitting beside Mujing, looked at Mujing's rice flour, and said sarcastically to Huo Shao : "Huo Shao, you actually let our majestic Minghou son eat rice noodles, you are not afraid to go back and reprimand your concubine, you don't even think about it, how delicate your son is now, you don't have to care, at least There are also concubines of all ages who care about their concubines. They love their husbands. If they go back and find that their sons are thin, our concubines will not let us as guards. Let alone your personal guard camp, my guards may not feel better ah!"

"The commander-in-chief is right. This was my negligence. I'll go and see if there are any prey around!"

Huo Shao fled and stayed by Mujing's side for a long time. As Mujing's confidant, many people, even the few generals in charge of the military Jing Ping, could not give face to him, but he knew very well that there were a few people he couldn't afford to provoke Yes, the commander-in-chief of the guard in front of him is one of them.

"I'm not so delicate!"

Mu Jing cast a sidelong glance at Zhang Ning, then ate the rice paste that looked like balls in big mouthfuls, and said with a smile: "I think back in Mushroom Mountain, we didn't even have a bite, Brother Huzi ran away a few times. On the top of the mountain, let alone the prey, I didn’t find the roots of the tree, so I found a few sour and bitter fruits to satisfy my hunger. Those days are over, and there is dry food to eat, which is already very good!”

"It's not like it used to be!"

Zhang Ning is wearing a Confucian robe, elegant, and his appearance and temperament are several grades higher than those of Mu Jing. When he smiled, there was a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth, which was very evil. She said faintly: "The former Mu Shuai , but just a bereaved dog, today's Mu Xiangguo is the overlord of the current imperial court, who alone controls the powerful Kun, and Mu Shizi is not what he used to be, how can it be the same as before!"

She paused, her beautiful eyes flickered with nostalgia, and continued: "If it is possible, I hope that Shizi Mu is still the same as the one I saw in Jingping Village in the past, how wonderful it would be!"

"The road always has to go forward. Life is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. If my father does not advance, he will be forced to death. If I do not advance, he will fall behind and be beaten!" Mu Jing didn't have much sorrow in his heart. Born in troubled times, he should have such an awareness long ago, he does not have Zhang Ning's sentimentality.

Zhang Ning was also silent when she heard the words. She actually understood in her heart that from the perspective of Mushan and Mujing father and son, the only way to keep moving forward, only to keep taking power, and only to reach the peak is the safer.

Otherwise, there is only one dead end.

The atmosphere between the two was a bit silent, and it had been like this since Mu Jing got married, but after a while, Huo Shao really came back from hunting some prey, although it was late autumn and early winter, but the primitive people of this era The forest is well preserved, and the surrounding forests are not too dense, so it is not difficult to find a few prey.

"Go and wash this pheasant and hare, I'll show you!"

Mu's Barbecue opened again. Although Mu Jing's own barbecue lacked some ingredients, the taste is still good. Even Zhang Ning couldn't help but eat a few more mouthfuls at this time. is one-half of the eradication.

After eating and leaving behind the vigilantes, the rest of the caravan began to rest.

There is still a hurry tomorrow, and at this time, it is necessary to race against time to replenish mental strength.

But in the middle of the night, there was a sudden light snowfall in the sky.

"Snowing!"

Mu Jing opened his eyes, took off the cloak on his body, looked at the white snowflakes falling from the sky, stretched out his hand, and grabbed a handful of snowflakes in his hands, the snow gradually melted, making his hands moist.

In fact, Mu Jing quite likes snow, he stood up from the ground, looked at the snowflakes all over the sky, and his originally dull mood became much happier.

"Snowing!"

Another faint voice sounded.

Zhang Ning didn't know when he appeared next to Mu Jing, standing gracefully amidst the snowflakes, with that delicate smile blooming amidst the fluttering light snow.

Next to Mujing, a big sleeping man frowned, didn't open his eyes, but turned over, then turned around, trying his best to stay away from the two of them.

It was a night in the wild. Under such circumstances, Huang Zhong was highly vigilant, but if it was Zhang Ning who appeared next to Mu Jing, it would be a different matter. You must know that he became Mu Jing's No. [-] for Zhang Ning. As a guard, his son's breathing problem has gradually healed under Zhang Ning's mastery, which is a great favor.

Although he was dissatisfied with Zhang Ning about Mu Jing's marriage, the relationship between the two was out of his control.

"There's so much snow on your body, you haven't slept all night?" Mu Jing patted the snowflakes on her body.

"Can't sleep!"

Zhang Ning said calmly: "I'm considering Yang Feng's attitude, this time, I'm not sure!"

Back then when Baibo and Yellow Turban chased her down, there was a lot of grudges between the two parties.

Now although Mrs. Guo has died in battle, she is not sure about the attitude of the four major brigade commanders under Mrs. Guo's command. The most important thing is Yang Feng. It was this person who led people to chase and kill her back then, which is not very good. get along.

"do not worry!"

Mu Jing smiled: "I'm lucky if I get it, but my life is lost. It's best to win it. If we can't win it, we will suffer too much loss, but it's just icing on the cake!"

"The situation is like this, don't lie to me!"

Zhang Ning shook his head: "The reason why you have to come to Hedong at all costs and dangers is simply because you want to break the situation with the strength of Baibo Yellow Turban?"

She could see through Mujing's mind.

Now that the troops of the Kanto princes have begun to accumulate one after another, the troops under Mu's command are still not enough to compete with the princes of the world. It is an honor to break the stalemate, but if you want to break the situation, you need the intervention of foreign troops.

"I heard you found Yu Ji?" Mu Jing said suddenly.

"Ok!"

"I also heard that Yu Ji wants to take you back to Jiangdong?" Mu Jing continued.

"Who did you hear?"

Zhang Ning frowned.

Yu Ji has a Taoist palace in Jiangdong, with a foundation of Taiping. Although it is not as powerful as Hebei Taiping Dao, it is still a place for one to settle down. He really wants to bring himself back to Jiangdong, devote himself to cultivating Taoism, and ignore world affairs.

"If you have a chance, go!" Mu Jing was silent for a long time before he said such a sentence.

"Mulongtu, what do you mean?" Zhang Ning was taken aback when he heard the words, and after realizing it, he was completely angry, staring at Mujing with a pair of beautiful eyes, and even the snowflakes around him were covered by her body. The coldness that emanated was frozen.

"I……"

Mu Jing couldn't say a word for a long time.

He had to admit that this time, he had no confidence at all. The feudal lords of the world were attacking so powerfully. With the strength of one place in Guanzhong, they were defeated by more than [-]% due to internal and external troubles.

If possible, he didn't want Zhang Ning to be buried with him.

"You bastard!"

Zhang Ning ran away with rosy eyes and weeping.

Mujing scratched his head and let out a long sigh, not knowing what to say.

……

The next day, in the early morning, the snowflakes continued to fall, but it was not heavy snow, but light snow, which did not affect the caravan's journey. This caravan escorted the carloads of things and continued on its way.

Three days later, the caravan entered Jiangyi.

Jiangyi is a county seat located in the northeast of Hedong, at the confluence of Fenshui River and Jianghe River. Its northwest is Linfen City, and its northeast is Xiangling City.

This county does not have much special features, but it is only separated from Baibo Valley, the old nest of Baibo Yellow Turban, by the Fenshui River.

The current Jiangyi County is being occupied by the Yellow Turban Army.

Yellow Turban General Han Siam personally guarded it.

After the caravan paid the entrance tax which was almost two or three times more expensive than usual, they entered Jiangyi smoothly. At this time, a young man came to greet him in person.

"My lord, everything has been arranged!"

The young man is the head of the Wei family, Wei Ke.

He is the vanguard general sent by Mujing to Hedong.

In Hedong, the Wei family is the number one family, with their hands and eyes open to the sky, it is very easy to enter the territory controlled by the Yellow Turban Army, and everything has even been arranged for Mujing in Jiangyi City.

"Bo Yu, why is this Jiangyi city so chaotic?" Mu Jing walked through several streets, watching the scenes, there were people robbing things in the street, there were yellow scarf soldiers eating food arrogantly, everything happened.

"My son, the city under the rule of the Yellow Turban Army is in this situation. Han Xian is not bad, and he has ordered to stop it, but the soldiers and horses under his command are mixed, and he can't control it at all. The people here are used to it!"

Wei Qi said softly.

Hearing this, Mu Jing's eyes dimmed, and he became quiet, not knowing what he was thinking.
