Chapter 3: The Huaihe River is Difficult to Cross
"Master, the front is Jingguo Plain!"
After Chunyu Feng walked in the cave for more than half a day, he saw the rat demon Bai Jie suddenly stopped the trail.
Chunyu Feng thought for a while, then frowned and asked, "How far is this place from the ground?"
Bai Jie immediately replied without hesitation when she heard this: "Seven hundred feet!"
After hearing this, Chunyu Feng couldn't help but twitched. Fortunately, he called Bai Jie in time before, otherwise he wouldn't know how deep it was!
After thinking for a while, Chunyu Feng decided to return to the ground temporarily for the sake of security.
After all, as a disciple of the Beast God Mountain, he can enter the battlefield with a glorious face, and there is no need to act underground in concealment.
If the Beast God Ancestor accidentally discovers traces, then he may be able to stomp his feet to death.
So a rustling sound rang out in the cave again. After a while, when Chunyu Feng saw the sun again, he found that there was a dense forest around his head.
Seeing this, he quickly jumped out of the cave, and then after putting Bai Jie and a group of corpses into the bag, he rushed out of the dense forest with a calm expression and ran quickly towards the wall of Jingguo.
After entering the Nanjiang County Government, Chunyu Feng only saw that the moss was still dark and the exterior wall of Bowu Fort was full of vitality, and now it was bloody.
From afar, he could only hear waves of roars and cheers coming from the fort: "Warriors~, kill these people in Jing! These food, women, and cloth will all belong to you!"
Suddenly, a burst of cries like a beast roar came from the fort: "Woo~ha~"
So after a while, Chunyu Feng heard waves of metal and iron fighting. He could not help but shake his head helplessly when he heard this.
Without the protection of the fort, these private soldiers of the Jing Kingdom gentry could not be the opponents of the barbarians. He had seen countless such tragedies along the way.
Because the purpose of barbarian soldiers coming out to attack the siege was to consume the excess population in the southern barbarian villages.
Therefore, when attacking the barbarians, they only need wealth and no prisoners of war.
For barbarians, food, women and cloth are the most precious wealth in the mountains.
So whenever the barbarians break through a fort or city, the rest of the people in the city except for the appropriate women.
Originally, for Chunyu Feng, both the barbarians and the Jingren were strangers.
As long as they don't come to cause trouble for him, Chunyu Feng will not bother with this idiot.
However, the methods of these barbarians were too cruel. Some barbarian soldiers were completely like wild animals, enjoying bloodthirsty and slaughtering.
So, when Chunyu Feng saw a barbarian trying to tear a child apart again, he couldn't help but take action.
After slapped the barbarian with one palm and looking at the child next to him who had been scared silly, Chunyu Feng shook his head with emotion.
Then he quietly sent the child to a nearby fort, and he decisively left.
Therefore, Chunyu Feng knew in his heart that it didn't matter if he had a kind heart by chance, but he would never be able to save all the people in the five prefectures and thirty-six counties in the southern border.
If he overestimated his power and wanted to be a savior, he would have to accompany them to die in the end.
...
Chunyu Feng, who chose to protect himself, finally stopped after entering the hinterland of southern Xinjiang.
In a barren mountain and a ruined temple, Chunyu Feng finally released Bai Jie and Black Eagle who had been in a long time.
When these two demons appeared in the ruined temple, Bai Jie and Ying Xuan looked around with lingering fear.
After seeing that this place was no longer the southern barbarian mountains, both demons couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, the daytime incident is a bit too scary!
They were just small minions in the Qi Refining Stage, and suddenly they were chased by a group of great monsters in the Foundation Establishment Stage. They were already determined to be able to be unable to be scared to death.
However, Yingxuan was a little greedy after all. After discovering that there was no danger, he flew out to find food again.
However, after Bai Jie sorted out the ruined temple, she breathed peacefully and adjusted her breathing.
As the night became heavier, the lights of thousands of families began to illuminate in the county town at the foot of the mountain.
However, because the enemy is now outside, soldiers patrolling back and forth on the city wall from time to time.
Chunyu Feng discovered that the deeper it went into the hinterland of southern Xinjiang, the more severe the defenses of these Jingguo cities became.
Although the southern border army chose to take the initiative to put the barbarian army in, except for the outermost county towns, other southern border counties were all trying their best to defend themselves.
Because Jing's plan to deal with the barbarians' siege is no longer a secret for the people in southern Xinjiang.
So from county officials to ordinary Guizhou farmers, they all worked together to resist in a deadly manner.
For them, the only hope that they survive now is to defend until the eleventh army in southern Xinjiang is encircled and strangled.
If the county town was still not compromised by the barbarians, then they would have escaped.
Looking at the flashing lights at the foot of the mountain, Chunyu Feng couldn't help but sigh softly. It was not just the people of Jing Kingdom who were facing disaster below!
First of all, he will definitely not be able to go back to the Water Curtain Cave. Even if he can survive this war, he may not be able to escape the plot of the Beast God Ancestor.
However, as a former disciple of the Beast God Mountain, after the Beast God Ancestor was violently provoked by the view of immortality, if he stayed in Jingguo, there would be many crises.
So for Chunyu Feng, the two choices at present may be just the difference between dying early and dying late.
Not long after, Yingxuan slowly landed in front of the ruined temple with a big yellow cow in his mouth.
Since it has eaten the cooked food baked by Bai Jie for Chunyufeng, it has been obsessed with it. Even in order to taste it again, it has no choice but to care about its eagle's dignity.
So after a while, Chunyu Feng saw it begging around Bai Jie without any moral integrity. The little intention made Chunyu Feng look shameless.
In the end, I don’t know how it convinced Bai Jie, but a fire broke out in the open space in front of the temple in a short while.
Bai Jie stood up, and his two rat claws were rotating the shelf flexibly from time to time, as if they were like a cook.
"Oh, this world... people don't look like humans, monsters don't look like monsters!"
In Chunyu Feng's view, Bai Jie has been hanging around the world for a long time, but she is more like a human race than the guys in the Beast God Mountain.
In contrast, although the six elders have a human body, they are hidden inside with a demonic heart!
...
After a little rest in the dilapidated temple, Chunyu Feng took the Black Eagle all the way through the prefecture, and soon arrived at the Huaihe, the junction between the five prefectures in southern Xinjiang and the Jingwu Prefectures in the inland and mainland China!
Because the Huaihe River is very wide and stretches for thousands of miles, it naturally becomes a natural barrier between the five prefectures in southern Xinjiang and the hinterland of Jingguo.
Because there are a large number of locust trees on both sides of this river, it has been called the Locust River over time.
Every year, I don’t know how many people from the five southern prefectures think of smuggling from the other side of the Huai River, but never succeeded.
Therefore, the huge Huai River seems wide, but there is actually no other passage except a stone bridge covered with talisman patterns.
Ying Xuan relied on his sharp eagle eyes, but he could see the scene on the ground clearly.
When passing by the Huai River, even as a demon, it couldn't help but feel a chill in its heart.
Because there were countless white bones floating on the Qianli Huai River, the cold ghost aura and resentment contained on it even rushed to the sky, causing Ying Xuan Demon to stumble and he was about to fall down...
