Chapter 5 Turning Grass ([-])
Chapter 5 Turning Grass ([-])

After picking a stick of incense, the fenling grass will be turned into ashes. Only a box made of jade can keep the medicinal properties for a short time.

Jade box... I don't even have shoes, you tell me about a jade box...

After walking along the official road, the two of them are already very close to Yucheng, Xu Guangbai is better, and Ji Mingzhao's pair of pink slippers covered in yellow mud is completely unacceptable. If she can't change a pair, she is afraid It was because the business collapsed before halfway, and I will explain it here today.

Until now, Ji Mingzhao has only seen ancient towns from TV dramas. He has never been to any ancient city ruins or film and television cities. He is looking forward to the teahouses and cottages described in TV dramas, and to the world where heroes fly in the air. I yearn even more, but now with Xu Guangbai, a kid, I'm afraid he won't be able to enter the city until he can show himself after practicing.

If you can’t enter the city, you can’t buy shoes. If you can’t buy shoes, you can only go on your way barefoot. One of my cotton slippers got stuck in the gap between the boulder when Ji Mingzhao struggled to climb over it. Half of it fell off, and the other half almost fell off, and there was no whole body.

Ji Mingzhao tore off two pieces of cloth from his pajama pants and wrapped them around his feet as socks, then pulled two pieces of bark from a tree with his bare hands and wrapped them with cloth strips. Even the cloth strips of the leggings had to be pulled down on the trousers, and the cropped trousers were pulled super short. When the wind blows in late spring, the fluff on the legs lined up one by one, and they jumped and twirled in the cold wind with their eyes closed.

She tugged on her pajama pants in vain, trying to cover her trembling calves in the cold wind, almost burst into tears for a while, and couldn't help but share her love with the little match girl.

If it keeps freezing like this, I will soon see my grandma in the sky...

She chopped her feet on the ground to confirm that the "new shoes" would not fall off, and continued to walk forward with a heavy heart. Xu Guangbai behind her didn't know what she was thinking, and followed behind silently.

The two walked in silence for half an hour, accompanied by the groaning sound of the bark stepping on the ground. Ji Mingzhao's pair of temporary bark shoes couldn't hold on anymore, and they creaked on the verge of breaking.

Ji Mingzhao's feet were also worn down by this pair of extremely rough "shoes" until two or three blood blisters the size of fingernails rose up. The water heads were full and crystal clear. Looking for someone to grab a pair of shoes.

She clicked on the task interface with hope, to see if the task bar could change her into warm clothes with humanitarian care, but unfortunately, after searching for a long time, there was no button. This broken plan is really leaving her here. do not care? !
We don’t ask for much, we’ve already crossed over, so it’s better to get a set of equipment than to wear pajamas in the wind and rain all day long, the problem is that it’s not cold proof.

"...Are our employee benefits a bit too bad?" Ji Mingzhao couldn't hold back, criticizing the cruel face of the capitalist who completed the blueprint plan, "We have signed the contract, and you don't want me to start work before I start working." It’s gone to the west, and it will be troublesome for you to find someone again, do you think it’s okay?”

There was still no response from the interface in front of him, Ji Mingzhao continued to reason with emotion: "We are also reasonable people, I asked you to put on clothes, and I didn't ask you for anything difficult, do you think so?" .”

The task interface is still unresponsive.

"Let's be human... No, you can't make plans like this. You will be sued for labor security."

The task interface remains, unresponsive.

Just when Ji Mingzhao was discouraged and wanted to abandon etiquette and morality and go to the city to steal a suit of clothes, a white light flashed in front of him.

She subconsciously closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, there were two sets of blue clothes and shoe caps on the ground.

Ji Mingzhao has studied mathematics, physics and chemistry since he was a child, and his understanding of history is only superficial in junior high school textbooks. He is not clear about the dynasty and shape of the suit on the ground. He can only recognize the bunt that often appears in martial arts dramas, and the fabric is nothing. The expensive fabrics are just ordinary coarse linen.

She hid behind the tree and followed Xu Guangbai's way of dressing, reluctantly put on her clothes, and pulled her hair up. Ji Mingzhao did not have a gentle appearance. On the contrary, she had a straight nose and thin lips, extremely sharp, with only a pair of water eyes, like fog In the moonlight, the sparkling light made this dress look more like an ancient chivalrous woman.

Perhaps it was the fairy clothes in the legend, not much thicker than the original set of pajamas, Ji Mingzhao felt that his body was no longer cold, and the small wind was not blowing inward along his neck, and he felt that he could do it again.

"Are you going or not..." Seeing that Ji Mingzhao hadn't moved for a long time, Xu Guangbai asked with some doubts, but before he finished asking, he heard the sound of fighting not far away.

The sound of fighting was not far away from the two of them, and those with better eyesight could even see the silhouettes of people constantly impacting each other in the distance.

Look like a normal person?

Ji Mingzhao’s superficial understanding of comprehension comes from TV dramas. In TV dramas, monks fight all with colorful special effects, one light wave on the left and one light wave on the right. No matter whether the world is the same or not, art always comes from life. Maybe the real world of comprehension That's it?
But even though Ji Mingzhao privately believed that these people who fought each other were mortals, Ji Mingzhao still didn't dare to put Xu Guangbai's precious bump in danger.

Just when he was in a dilemma, Xu Guangbai said: "Go and see what's going on."

"...What should you do?" What if you run away, where can I find you?

Xu Guangbai continued: "Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere, I'll just wait for you here."

Ji Mingzhao was still a little worried and didn't want to leave. Xu Guangbai saw Ji Mingzhao's careful thinking and assured her, "I won't run."

Ji Mingzhao was still a little unsure, the two of them hadn't known each other for half a day, and how deep a friendship could be established in half a day, not to mention that the friendship between the two was built on lies.

"Okay, then wait for me here, and be careful."

Ji Mingzhao still compromised, this is a test, the test that Xu Guangbai gave her to Ji Mingzhao, if she fails at this time, it is even more impossible to build a relationship in the future.

Ji Mingzhao turned around and ran towards the direction of the fighting sound. The further he walked, the steeper the surrounding mountains became. Yu Cheng was sitting on a depression surrounded by mountains. Although the mountains around Yu Cheng were dangerous, People can still climb, but when they get to the place where the sound comes from, the surrounding mountains are so steep that even monkeys have to weigh it.

It will take half an hour for her to leave, and at this time the afterglow of the sun can barely cover the blackness of the sky, Ji Mingzhao doesn't want to go any further, and is hesitating whether to go back, when a person appears in front of the official road A checkpoint, the outer wall is five meters high and one meter thick, all made of poured steel, even Jindan stage monks have to spend some effort to break through the checkpoint, at this time two groups of people are entangled Fight in one place.

One group looked to be officers and soldiers sent by Dan Kingdom to guard the grass, and the other group wore coarse cloth jackets, looking like ordinary civilians. These people had red eyes, held long knives, and carried There were bundles of gunpowder, and some of them were still pierced with arrows, but these people seemed to feel no pain, and kept rushing forward.

"Go and set off the smoke! These people are not in the right state, they are being controlled!"

The head lieutenant led more than 50 soldiers with long guns in an array, trying to force back hundreds of strong men with steel knives in front of them, but they failed to stop the group from advancing. Many soldiers were killed by long knives during the conflict. chop.

The captain became ruthless, not caring that these were ordinary people, and stabbed at the heart.

The force was so deep that the strong man's blood was sprayed two meters away. If an ordinary person did this, he would lose too much blood and lose his mobility if he didn't get stabbed to death. The wounded movement did not stop at all, and he raised the knife and chopped off the captain's head.

The knife was shot very quickly, the captain had no time to close the gun, and was slashed on the left arm by the strong man. In an instant, blood spurted out, splashing straight to Ji Mingzhao's feet.

"what!"

The strong man didn't stop after the blow, and raised his knife again to attack the captain.

The captain raised the spear on his right hand and rolled to one side. The strong man followed closely and cut a deep knife mark on the ground.

"His mother, reinforcements! Come to reinforcements!"

The gate of the checkpoint opened slowly, and about 50 soldiers rushed out from inside the checkpoint. Ji Mingzhao stretched his neck and looked inside the checkpoint. Behind the checkpoint is a whole barracks, which can roughly accommodate about a hundred people. That is to say, this The soldiers in the checkpoint have already come out in full force. Once lost, the consequences will be disastrous.

But the development of things is unpredictable and cannot be transferred by human will.

With the passage of time, the smoke of the wolf gradually burned out, but the reinforcements that the soldiers were looking forward to were delayed in the future, and what was even more desperate was that the controlled people in the distance were continuously pouring towards the checkpoint.

Ji Mingzhao's scalp was numb, and she retreated from the side of the official road all the way into the woods. She could clearly see that these later civilians were all tied with gunpowder. One or two might not hurt the iron wall, but so many people...

Who is so cruel!

Ji Mingzhao couldn't bear to see so many people dying in front of him, but he couldn't do anything, he could only watch these soldiers, these common people, sacrifice their lives for the self-interest of others.

It's really suffocating to die.

When the last ray of light in the sky disappeared, the surroundings became quiet again. The soldiers could not wait for support until the last moment of their lives. The solid iron wall of the checkpoint was blasted into a hole half the height of a person. The long knife slowly crawled into the hole with the sticky blood, and after a while, the next checkpoint sent another soaring cry of killing.
