Daqian deposed the crown prince, and the emperor begged him to stop rebelling

Chapter 31 Abandoned Place
Now, it is not far from him.

"Where should we go next?"

Shen Pingan appeared beside Li Mu.

Li Mu looked in a direction casually.

"Just go wherever you want. The grassland is so big that you can go wherever you want."

Shen Pingan was slightly stunned when he heard this.

It seemed that he had never expected Li Mu to say this.

These words were obviously heard by the group of prisoners behind him.

A small commotion could not help but arise.

Wang Bing stood behind with his eyes wide open.

Wherever you go, that’s where it is?
This is the prairie, to put it nicely.

To put it bluntly, this place is full of dangers and it's the world of barbarians!

Even if the barbarian leader gathered more than a hundred tribes to attack Tiangu Pass, you have to know that there will still be many wild tribes that will not obey orders.

such as.

There were some small tribes of barbarians scattered throughout the prairie.

Or those medium-sized tribes with some strength.

As for the large tribes, they are basically all in front of Tiangu Pass.

The barbarians naturally have their own culture, but within this culture there are also wild tribes that live even more barbarically and backward lives.

They did not obey the orders of the so-called leader and lived a life of eating raw meat and drinking blood. If they met that group of people, the more than one hundred criminal soldiers would probably not even have the chance to fight back.

The prisoners looked at each other.

My heart, which had been slightly relaxed, suddenly tensed up.

The soldier was about to say something, but stopped himself. Suddenly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't we find a remote place and become savages!"

It is better to live in disgrace than to die. That's all.

Li Mu looked back when he heard the voice.

He smiled at the man and said, "Okay."

The criminal soldier was obviously stunned.

Then he said excitedly: "This grassland is huge. It's just that we are not familiar with it, so it's easy to run into a barbarian tribe and die! But if we can carefully find a secluded place, we may be able to survive!"

Many of the prisoners were obviously tempted and did not consider anything else at all, and all showed excitement.

More than half of the prisoners were obviously more experienced and just watched coldly.

Li Mu continued to smile and said, "Then let's find the source of water first."

After saying this, he led his men forward.

Shen Pingan didn't care about what Li Mu said at all.

I am still silent about that sentence: wherever you go, that’s where you are.

He just frowned slightly and looked at Li Mu's back with some hesitation.

For a moment, even he didn't know whether Li Mu had great ambitions or was just so casual?

A group of prisoners followed Li Mu seemingly casually.

I don't know whether it was just luck or not.

It was just an accident.

This group of more than a hundred criminal soldiers actually found a hidden hiding place after marching into the grassland!

This is a towering earthen hill.

Actually, it is not appropriate to call it a mountain.

Its shape is just an irregular circle.

You need to climb up slowly, step by step, at an angle of nearly 90 degrees from the bottom.

Even for a strong adult, it would take a lot of effort to climb up.

After going up, you will find that what is in front of you is actually a towering area that is concave inside.

The place is not big, but it is more than enough to accommodate more than a thousand people.

This place was discovered when a prisoner soldier passed by and climbed up out of curiosity to take a look.

Otherwise, ordinary people passing by here in a hurry may not be able to discover the secrets of this place.

"There's something!"

Wang Bing, who hurried over after hearing the sound, suddenly shouted excitedly!

Li Mu stood calmly on the hillside, turned his head and looked around. The terrain here was good, and he could easily see the barbarians coming and going.

It can almost be said that any slight disturbance can be discovered at the first moment.

It is worthy of being the place where the Great Snow Dragon Riders and Wei Wuzu once lived.

It was only after the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Wei Wuzu swept through those small tribes and found a better habitat that they abandoned this place.

"Baichang!"

Wang Bing suddenly poked his head out from above with an excited look on his face and shouted, "Someone used to live here! There's some food in there!"

Li Mu and Shen Pingan took a look.

Both of them smiled.

Having food means staying alive.

After a while.

Li Mu and a group of invading soldiers went up.

After seeing the scene before them, many prisoners couldn't help but cheer!
This low plateau is filled with soil and sand.

But it is not difficult to see traces that someone once stayed here.

Wang Bing and a few prisoners were carrying a few round jars with some difficulty, but they ran over with smiles on their faces.

After seeing what was inside, all the prisoners cheered again!
Because there is meat in it!
Pieces of beef and mutton marinated with salt can be preserved for a long time!

Li Mu asked people to gather the collected food together, and then take out enough meat to distribute.

Wang Bingle grabbed a piece of meat and threw it into his mouth.

"Ugh, it's hard and smelly, and has a weird smell!"

But after taking just one bite, Wang Bing couldn't help but spit it out.

Li Muyi took a bite and frowned slightly.

How to evaluate it?
The food in the death row camp is terrible, isn't it? Don't expect the prisoner cooks to make anything delicious, let alone meat.

But the pieces of meat in front of me are even more unpalatable.

I wonder how the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and Wei Wuzu could eat it?
For a while, the prisoners kept vomiting and eating with gritted teeth.

What’s more terrible than having no energy is having no taste!
This is a truth that the prisoners in the death row camp had already understood.

"strangeness."

Shen Pingan picked up a piece of meat and frowned tightly.

"How could a barbarian tribe have lived here? Given their temperament, how could they abandon these foods?"

"Maybe he encountered something serious that could have affected someone's life."

Li Mu said with a smile.

"Unless other tribes come to attack, it is not uncommon for the Barbarian Tribes to kill each other."

Wang Bing chewed the meat and said nonchalantly.

"If it were other tribes, they wouldn't give up these pickled meats. On the grassland, food is more important than life, not to mention pickled meats that can replenish salt."

Shen Ping stared at him steadily.

Wang Bing was stared at for a long time.

Finally, he smiled awkwardly and said, "No water. I'm too thirsty to eat this stuff."

These words seemed to break down some obstacles in Shen Ping'an's mind.

He stared at Wang Bing and asked, "What did you say!?"

A group of prisoners who were eating looked up.

Wang Bing was stunned.

"There's no water."

"Correct!"

Shen Ping'an turned his head with a serious expression and looked at Li Mu who had a calm expression.

"There is no water source within a ten-mile radius of this place! There is no way the Barbarian Tribe uses this place as their habitat! The only possibility is that there are troops here that are different from the Barbarians, just like us!"

Shen Ping'an didn't notice that Li Mu's eyelids twitched slightly.

It was also unexpected that Shen Pingan could discover the existence of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry Wei Wuzu through this observation.

Li Mu turned to look at him and asked, "Why must it be the military? Or could it be the Daqian Merchants who sneaked across the Great Wall to trade with the Barbarian Tribe?"

　I have some family matters these days so I will update the post first. I will make up for what I owe after I finish my work in a few days.
