Chapter 1180

The next morning, when the first ray of sunshine in the early morning spread among the mountains, Shi a had already come out of the cave, standing on the big stone outside the cave, looking at the mountains bathed in the sun, it seemed that the silent mountains were alive. Now it is March and April, and the jungle is full of birds singing and flowers.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Shi a couldn't help sighing in his heart. He didn't know how long he hadn't seen such a refreshing scenery. Looking at the scene in front of you, who can imagine that outside the mountain forest, there is a lot of blood everywhere, killing everywhere?

"General!" Just at this time, a voice sounded behind Shi a, who had already heard the footsteps behind him, but Tian zhe was on duty with him last night.

"What's the matter? How long is Tian Qu Shia asked back;

"Chaoshi is ready, please go to eat!"

"Hard work!" Shia nodded, turned and walked into the cave.

After having breakfast in a hurry, Shi a gathered all the people. He had thought about it clearly yesterday and decided to explain the purpose of his trip to the people first, so as to get rid of their worries.

In everyone's eyes, Shi a said slowly: "some of you should have guessed the purpose of the king's sending us here. Some people may not have guessed it, but it doesn't matter. I will explain the purpose of this trip to you a little time before I leave."

After a pause, Shi a continued: "there is no mistake. The purpose of our trip is to find a road from Hedong to Shangdang. This road originally existed. As early as the state of Qin hundreds of years ago, the state of Qin sent hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Shangdang. There was a big war there, which is called the battle of Changping."

Some of the people in the cave came to realize it quietly, while others were still ignorant. Shi ah also pointed out what he said and did not cover it up any more. He said: "some of you may not know about the battle of Changping, but there is one person that we should all know, that is, the leader of the four famous generals of the Warring States period, the killing God Wu'an Jun Baiqi, is the commander of this battle."

Those who didn't understand were all shocked. Although many of them were small people in the mountains, they had heard the old people mention the killing God Bai Qi, who once made children stop crying, especially the people who lived around Taihang Mountain for generations.

"Ah There was also a exclamation from the middle.

"Well, I believe everyone knows what happened. Since hundreds of thousands of troops of Qin army were able to invade Shangdang from Hedong hundreds of years ago, the soldiers of Tang Dynasty were also able to invade Shangdang from here. That's why the king ordered us to explore the ancient road of Qin hundreds of years ago." Shi a then said, "before we set out, the king had told us to speak There must be a lot of difficulties and obstacles in this exploration of the ancient road, so King Zeng Mingyan said that if the people who explored the ancient road were injured, they would be regarded as the same as the casualties during the war. If they could successfully explore the ancient road, all the participants would be promoted to a higher level, and they would be rewarded with 100 yuan! "

When they heard this, they all exclaimed in a loud voice. The official was promoted to a higher level and the reward was 100 Guan. This was equivalent to the reward of several wars.

"The king is wise!"

"Thank you for your reward!"

For a moment, everyone was cheering.

After everyone calmed down, Shi said: "so, no matter how dangerous the next road is, we must stick to it. If we can't find out this road, how can we repay King Long's kindness?"

"Don't worry, general. We will die in return for your kindness!" All the people agreed to the promise;

"well, let's make concerted efforts to handle this matter well and repay the king!" Shi a waves a hand way: "pack good goods, set out immediately!"

With Shi A's order, more than 40 people immediately sorted out their belongings and headed east. Under Shi A's arrangement, he personally led several rangers to guard Tian Zhe and several road exploring taxis. The rest of them followed closely. Finally, Zhang Ming, who was second only to him in fighting power, gave up.

With the participation of Shi A's Rangers, the speed of the exploring team has been greatly accelerated, but this acceleration is only relative to the speed of Tian Zhe and his party before. You know, the speed of Tian Zhe and his party at the beginning was simply too fast, and they explored less than ten li Road in a day. At the end of the day, more than ten miles are not hard. This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that no one has been killed in the jungle since Shi'a and his party joined in.

Ten days later, the group walked for another day. At a quarter to three in the afternoon, it was only about to get dark for more than an hour. Shi ah looked at all the people who were so tired that he quickly stopped Zhang Ming who was driving in front of him today and said, "Zhang Ming, go to the top of the mountain in front of you and see what's going on in front of you, and then look for today The rest of us have a rest in place for a while. "

All of them were relieved. In the past ten days, not to mention other people, Shia was very tired. After hearing Shia's order to rest in place, they quickly found a slightly flat place and put some felt cloth on the ground. Then they all sat on it and did not want to move.Seeing this, Zhang Ming quickly called up another Ranger with good energy and climbed to a mountain hundreds of steps ahead.

Half an hour later, Zhang Ming rushed down from the mountain, ran wildly, lowered his voice and roared: "elder martial brother, elder martial brother..."

Upon hearing this, Shi a sprang up from the ground, holding the sword beside him in his backhand, and looking solemnly at the direction of Zhang Ming's running. After Zhang Ming came near, he asked in a deep voice, "Zhang Ming, why did you come back alone and have a brother?"

The rest of the people were also surprised. They all got up quickly, held their own weapons in their hands, and swept around with alert eyes.

"Big Elder martial brother... " Zhang Ming gasped and ran to Shi a, put his back and said, "no harm, no There is no enemy... "

After listening to this, they were relieved, but instead of putting down their weapons, they looked at Zhang Ming warily.

Finally, Zhang Ming ran to the crowd and saw him holding his knees in both hands. He said, "elder martial brother, I saw a village on the other side of the valley just above the mountain!"

As soon as we heard this, we were all very happy. Shi a quickly asked, "in detail, how far is the distance and how many people live in the village!"
