Concubine Doctor Concubine: Prince Miao only spends money like soil

Chapter 173, Northern Wilderness

The woods at night are weird, and there are many unknown dangers in the dark.

"Is there anyone?" Suddenly, there was a miserable cry in the dark mountains.In a deep trap, there are two figures lying crookedly.

"Is there anyone?" Meng Heng never thought that he would be so unlucky. He had been lost in the mountains for a long time, and seeing the sky getting darker and darker, they still couldn't get out.

He accidentally fell into a trap dug by Orion.Fortunately, there are no sharp bamboo slips, but the pit is a bit deep, which is used by hunters to deal with wild boars.

The entourage was held by the collar by Meng Heng after he fell, saying that he was going to climb up, and the physical strength of the tossing was exhausted, and finally passed out with blind eyes.Meng Heng himself fainted, and when he woke up again, it was already dark.

The woods are more dangerous at night.There are strange sounds that can always echo overhead.Meng Heng, who was so angry that he didn't know how long he had been shouting.

His voice was hoarse, his lips were dry, and he was dizzy.His clothes were soaked and he was in a mess.

"Come here, help me." Is he really going to die here?Father, mother, Miss Shen.Woohoo!
"Young Master Meng, Young Master Meng, where are you?" Suddenly there was a call from the woods, and there were figures of flames.

"Young Master Meng, Young Master Meng." Shen Muqing held up the torch and looked around.He didn't see Meng Heng in the crowd just now, and asked a few people, but they all said he didn't see him.

So I went to his house to check, and the luggage was there.People are not there.Recalling that today he also went to the mountains to hunt together.

So I went to ask Xiao Han and Cao Yu.

Xiao Han said with contempt on his face, "Didn't he come back early in the morning? The person who retreated halfway through the walk, who knows where he is slacking off now." Cao Yu also said that he separated from them early in the morning.Said that he didn't want to go up the mountain and wanted to go back to the village.

After thinking about it for a while, Shen Muqing went to tell Xiao Yanling.So they went out to find someone.

The mountain is not big, but there are many traps.

Maybe they accidentally fell into a trap when they came back.

"Mr. Meng, where are you? I heard the answer!" Meng Heng seemed to have heard something in a daze, and hope was ignited in his heart.

So he opened his throat and shouted with the last of his strength, "I'm here. Help."

"There seems to be movement somewhere." Someone heard it, and immediately turned to a big pit.

"There are people below."

"Is it Mr. Meng?"

"Help." Shen Muqing had already jumped off the trap, followed by Xuanji.

They rescued people from left to right.

"Is he alright?" Xiao Yanling frowned and looked at the messy person on the bed.

He lowered his head and asked Gu Wushuang who had just been healed.

"Well, it's nothing but a slight fracture of the ankle after being frightened, but his entourage was seriously injured. The ribs were broken and he needs to rest." Now Xiao Yanling's thick eyebrows frowned even tighter.

"The person with a broken bone will be arranged to lie flat tomorrow, so let's take it away." It can't be thrown away halfway.

"Oh, it hurts so much, take it easy." Meng Heng was still wailing, finally saving his life.

"Tsk tsk, what are you talking about? Why don't you want to go hunting in the mountains and suffer? Huh, it's all right now. I'm having fun in the bitterness." Xiao Han sneered at the side, and Cao Yu's immature face was also a little embarrassed.

"Well, Mr. Meng, if you survive a catastrophe, you will have good luck. You will have good luck after escaping this time." He blinked and said.

Meng Heng closed his eyes dumbfounded.Xiao Han didn't want to watch his mournful face, so he turned around and left with his sleeves twitched.

Cao Yu hesitated for a while, but left without saying a word.Originally, they walked together, if Meng Heng himself hadn't stubbornly refused to follow them, such a thing would not have happened.

It can only be said that he is asking for trouble, but also troubles others, the worst is his followers.

From then on, he was carried or pushed all the way.

Even if Meng Heng didn't want to, there was nothing he could do.Others are not their servants, so naturally they won't obey him.

The only thing that can be regarded as a blessing in disguise is that the pony can no longer be ridden, and can only ride in a carriage.

It's just that he is not embarrassed to be squeezed among a bunch of women, and so are others.

"Uh, Mr. Meng, you will ride in the carriage with us soon. Your foot bone is injured. My princess said not to walk around at random. If you need anything, you can tell me." Aunt Yan was more polite The elders are more or less caring.

Meng Heng didn't want to lose face in front of the woman, so he secretly swallowed his tears and nodded silently.Yaya and Xiang'er both looked at him, and he was even more embarrassed.

After living for 17 years, it was the first time to be with a group of women like this.

A pretty handsome cheek was flushed, especially when he thought of Gong, it was even more distressing.

It was Auntie Yan who thoughtfully asked him, and he reluctantly nodded.Not daring to look at the other girls who were holding back their smiles, I was so ashamed from the bottom of my heart.For the first time, I felt really useless.Disgraceful thrown into the pile of women.

Apart from his discomfort, Xiao Yanling was not much better either.Because of Meng Heng's joining, the women in the spare carriage could not be squeezed together at night, they could sit together during the day, but they naturally had to be separated into men and women when resting at night.

So Yaya and Xiang'er Hongling will sleep with Gu Wushuang at night except for Aunt Yan.As a result, Xiao Yanling could only rest outside the carriage.

Depressed, he didn't give Meng Heng a good look all the way.On the contrary, Gu Wushuang was extremely fortunate.He also quietly high-fived several other people and snickered.

Yan Xuan would also go into the carriage to rest together at night, worrying about his mother's reputation.Help Meng Heng along the way, give him a hand when he gets off the carriage or bring him some food and water.

In this way, they traveled north all the way, and experienced the alternation of the four seasons throughout the year. After a month of hard work, they finally arrived at an area not far from the Northern Wilderness.It was just the desolation in front of them that made them feel terrified.

I have heard that the people are living in poverty and the land is full of desolation. I didn't care about it at first, but I knew the rumors were true after seeing it with my own eyes.

The black horse kept breathing under its crotch.The air is dry, and looking down from a high slope is a barren land.Occasionally, a few pieces of blue land are just a drop in the bucket.Even if there is money in this kind of place, it is useless.

"My God." Lin Yubin looked at everything in front of him in astonishment, wondering where he had come.Purgatory on earth?Didn't Beihuang say that it was once very rich?Did they go to the wrong place today?
"Prince Xiao, did we come to the wrong place?" There were still stones besides stones.There is no basic green space at all.

"This should be a junction. You have to climb a few mountains to live on the plain."

"Are you sure?" Regarding his uncertainty, Xiao Yanling just raised his eyebrows, and turned his horse's head expressionlessly, "I'm not sure, you'll know if you go there." Lin Yubin felt that he was cheated.

As for who was tricked, it's hard to say.

Is it Hongling?Or Xiao Yanling?Or yourself!
Didn't you come by yourself?Shen Muqing smiled at him, "Young master Lin, if you come, you will be safe, don't worry, it's a big deal, we will return the same way." After speaking, he also rode away.

"What, go back the same way? Heh, Mr. Shen, are you really big?" Shaking his head helplessly, he followed.Three horses and three outstanding men, each with its own merits and demeanor.

Of course it would be a joke to go back the same way.How could it be possible to just leave after coming all the way?Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, they still have to make a dash.

A group of people slowly entered the uninhabited land.Everywhere he went was desolate land, overgrown with weeds and devoid of particles.

"Princess, the land here is so desolate, hasn't anyone cultivated it for a long time?"

A few women looked out through the window in the carriage, and what they saw was a barrenness. Gu Wushuang frowned, his deep eyes were deep and infinite.It is said that hearing is deception and seeing is believing. Seeing it today, it really is not a place where ordinary human beings can live.

"It seems that it has been barren for many years. The weeds are overgrown and no one has cultivated it. No one has opened up the wasteland. It is naturally barren."

"Then have all the people living here left?" Have they all moved out?
"That's not necessarily true." Maybe death from starvation, sickness and death is not rare, right?

Suppressing the bewilderment in his heart, he looked at Xiao Yanling who was riding on horseback, and there was no smile on his face either.Looking around solemnly, his frowning eyebrows showed that he was also quite dignified at the moment.

"My lord, I found residents under the high slope ahead. They are all dilapidated houses, or temporary huts. There is a river in front, but the river is not deep and only a few water sources are flowing." People are back.

"Then let's go there first." The team of hundreds of people walked down the hill slowly.Near dusk, they came to the place where the residents lived.It is not so much a resident as a nomad.

Shabby and dilapidated thatched huts, piles of stones piled up on the ground, and black pots were piled on the piles of stones.There was white smoke coming out of the can, as if something was cooking.

A silver-haired old man came out of the thatched hut, his back was a little bent, his clothes were ragged, his complexion was dry, and his cheeks were withered.His eyes are not very good and he squints.It seems to be looking at who is coming?

Now they have nothing, even if the robbers come, they can't grab anything.They eat nothing more than weeds and roots on the ground.There is only a little stream left to drink.

If there is any food left, it is just a few sheep scattered in the barren mountains.

A few people headed by Xiao Yanling got off their horses and came in front of the old man.

"This old man, we are passing through here, may I ask? How far is it from here to Beihuang?"

"Are you going to the Northern Wilderness? This is the border of the Northern Wilderness, but there is still a little distance from the capital of the Northern Wilderness. There is no place to live in a hundred miles around. Who are you?" The old man spoke slowly Yes, it seems that there is some difficulty in breathing.

"We are from Kyoto. I don't know how many people you have here, old man? Do you need our help?"

Hearing Xiao Yanling's words, the old man shook his head.

"We don't have many people here anymore! I'm an old man, and there are a few children who have lost their parents. Where do you say you came from?" The old man's ears seemed not very good.

Xiao Yanling repeated it tirelessly.The old man stretched out his fingers tremblingly, and looked at them from top to bottom.

"Kyoto! Did you come from Yuxiao's Kyoto?! Hey, what are you here for? We have been fighting so many wars here that the buildings have long since been deserted. What are you doing here? To do business, or to fight Japanese pirates?"

"My lord, we are passing by here. We are neither doing business nor fighting Japanese pirates. We just heard that the Northern Wilderness used to be a rich place. But now it has become so barren. I am curious to see it."

"Hey, then you guys really don't know the taste of sorrow." The old man seemed to have something to say, but he hesitated to speak, and in the end, he still didn't say anything.Just humming a few times, at this time, a few children came running from a distance.

They saw a large group of people coming towards them from the high hills, and they were anxious, wondering if the Japanese pirates had come?

"Grandpa, grandpa." There were about three or four children, the head of which was only in his teens, and the others were estimated to be five, six, seven or eight years old.

"Who are they? What are you going to do?" The children had dark cheeks and thin bodies, but they had big black and white eyes.At this moment, he was staring at the visitor defensively.

Still holding a whip, a wooden stick, and a hatchet in his hand, Xiao Yanling couldn't help laughing when he saw them.The upturned corners of the mouth revealed evil charm, three points of arrogance and seven points of arrogance.However, for these children, they have never seen such a good-looking person.Or rather, such neat people stood in front of them.Can't help but stare blankly.

At this time, Gu Wushuang had already got off the carriage, and several female family members stepped forward one after another.Gu Wushuang extended his hand to the children in a friendly manner.

"Hello, little friends, we have come from a long way, passing here, there is no malice, you don't have to be afraid. Here are some pastries and snacks for you to eat, okay?" Gu Wushuang held a bag in person Approach the child.

The tallest child at the head looked straight at her, neither speaking nor answering.There was inconceivable surprise in the guarded eyes.

Look at his dark cheeks, thin figure.Gu Wushuang's heart was full of pity and pity.

"You're my brother, right? Take it and share it. Don't worry, there's no money required." Gu Wushuang blinked as he spoke, his mischievous expression aroused the child.

A few children, you look at me, and I look at you.Looking at the package in Gu Wu's hands again, they seemed to be able to smell the aroma of food inside when they were hungry.

Gu Wushuang pursed her lips, smiled, and handed them the package.The child did not take it, but the old man on the side came over.

"This lady is a kind-hearted person. Let the children take it! Thank you, lady." After hearing the old man's words, they dared to reach out and take the burden.After thanking Gu Wushuang, they took their bundles and ran into the dilapidated house together.

The dilapidated wooden door almost fell down with a "squeak".The children didn't open the package immediately to eat food, but hid behind the door and looked around, their eyes were full of innocence and vigilance.

It made Gu Wushuang's heart ache when he saw it. These children are strong. In such a harsh environment, their mentality is still pure and flawless.Just like the vast mountains and clear streams, it is so lovable.
