Riding the Pheonix Chapter 708: Follow the trace

After watching the stars all night and rushing on the road the next day, Mingwei was so sleepy that she almost fell asleep on the horse.

Yang Shu simply rode with her and let her sleep against him.

Although it was a bit bumpy, it was still less laborious than riding a horse.

Mingwei seemed really tired, and under such circumstances, he actually fell asleep.

It wasn't until she took a break that she woke up a little.

Yang Shu didn't know what to say to her: "Did you not sleep all night? You are so sleepy."

"No!" Mingwei rubbed his eyes and said, "You know, I slept for two hours when I went back. Look, Duofu is very energetic."

"Then why are you so sleepy?"

"How do I know?"

After drinking a bowl of mare's milk, Mingwei finally woke up.

She talked about her stargazing last night: "I think the situation in the North may have changed, otherwise the stars wouldn't have changed so much."

"New co-owner?" Yang Shuqi asked, "Speaking of this, do you think it's strange to come here?"

"What?"

"We encountered almost no big tribes, just scattered herdsmen, as if the Northland had been cleaned up."

Mingwei thought for a while: "If there is a big movement in the north, it's impossible for the eagle to not notice it at all, right?"

They have Eagle spies in their ranks.

Yang Shu immediately called people over.

This spy is an ordinary-looking man, with dark skin, agile and capable.

He replied: "Your Highness, we can be sure that there is no big movement in the Northland. However, after the battle two years ago, there have been small-scale annexations. The remaining troops of the eight tribes of Beihu attack each other from time to time. , it’s no longer a concern now.”

"Then why didn't we encounter any big tribes along the way?"

The spy said: "My subordinates speculate that they may have moved. You know, the grassland is vast, and there will be a lag in the transmission of news here. This thing should have happened not long ago, and there was no time to transmit it back."

"Didn't we just fight in the war?"

The spy replied firmly: "The herdsmen are so calm, it can't be a war."

Yang Shu nodded and waved him away.

"Migrate?" he asked curiously, "What reasons attract them to migrate?"

"It is common for herdsmen to migrate, probably because they have discovered better grassland." Mingwei said casually.

……

The group continued on their way and finally reached Beihai before autumn was over.

The North Sea has long been frozen, and it looks completely white.

They found the place where the Snow Wolf tribe originally lived. It was empty. There was nothing except abandoned dilapidated tents and other items.

Yang Shu carefully observed the scene environment.

"There was no fighting here, it was an organized and planned migration."

Mingwei nodded slightly.

If there had been a battle, it would not have been so orderly.

But soon, Yang Shu discovered other traces.

"No, look at these messy marks, there are cavalry raiding here. It's strange, this kind of horseshoe is completely different from ours."

An eagle spy came over and reported: "Your Highness, he is from Kelan!"

"Kolan?"

"Yes! This kind of horse hoof print is their style. The Snow Wolf Tribe was at war with the Kelan people. It may be that they raided the Snow Wolf Tribe camp."

"But it looks like there was no fighting at the scene."

"Yes. Maybe the Snow Wolf Division learned of the disappearance in advance and moved first."

This is a bit strange. They had heard from Hou Liang that the Snow Wolf Department should have the upper hand! Why is it that the Kelan people are chasing the Snow Wolf tribe instead?

Yang Shu asked him: "Who do you think will win if Kelan and the Snow Wolf tribe fight?"

The spy did not hesitate: "Of course it is the Snow Wolf Division. The Kelan people are relatively weak. It is not easy to unite to resist this time."

Yang Shu nodded: "It seems that there is a mystery here that we don't know about!"

The spy asked: "Your Highness, are we still going west?"

Yang Shu said: "Go! Let's go before it snows. Maybe we can find them before winter comes."

"Yes."

Their good luck finally ran out a month after heading west.

It snowed heavily, blocking the road.

They can only find a relatively warm mountain col to survive the coldest period.

Fortunately, they brought a lot of dry food, and they kept replenishing it on the way, so they saved enough to survive this winter.

But Yang Shu didn't want to waste the whole winter.

Before setting out on the road, they knew that coming to Beihai in winter was not a wise choice.

You still insist on going north, don’t you just want to take Ah Wan back one day earlier?

The winter in the North is long. If we keep waiting, who knows how long it will last?

So after Mingwei surveyed the terrain, he made a decision: "We will walk around Anuda Mountain. There is no snow in the south, so we can still walk. We will set off when the snow stops, but it will be a little harder."

These people brought out are either his personal guards or Zong Xu's confidants. They will listen to whatever he says.

Mingwei found that she slept longer and longer. As long as she was not in a hurry, she would most likely be in a sleepy state.

For this reason, Yang Shu had to ride with her to give her more time to rest.

He was a little worried: "Why do you get tired so easily now?"

Mingwei was also puzzled. Duofu checked her pulse and there was no big problem.

"Maybe it's because of lack of energy." She said~IndoMTL.com~This body is not in good condition. I nursed it back to health for a long time, and it looks stronger. During his time in Nanchu, he was injured one after another, which may have damaged his vitality. ”

Duofu said: "Maybe it's not a bad thing. Miss, I read in medical books that the human body will repair itself, just like coma if the injury is too serious. The same goes for sleep. If people get enough sleep, they will be much more relaxed. ”

Mingwei nodded: "I hope so."

She actually doesn’t think so. Because she could feel that her difficulties came from her soul.

This made her even more uneasy.

Is it time? Should she go back?

But she hasn’t finished her work in this world yet...

With this thought in her mind, she became more gentle to Yang Shu, which made him feel flattered.

After another half month of this, the spy reported back: "Your Highness! There is someone! Riding a horse, maybe a soldier!"

The group immediately lined up on guard.

The other party seemed to have noticed them, and both sides approached vigilantly, and when they faced each other, they took action at the same time.

In the mountain forest where it has just snowed, it is difficult to fight, and weapons and weapons are not easy to use.

Just when both sides' hands were so stiff that they couldn't hold their weapons, and were about to bite with their teeth, a shout came from the other side.

Most of them could understand the nonsense, and they couldn't help but look surprised.

Mingwei heard what the man said: "Stop! No fighting! Dag has an order. These may be guests from far away. Don't be rude to the guests!"

Ji Xiaowu randomly learned a few nonsense words during this period, turned to Mingwei and asked: "Brother? Are they bandits?"

Mingwei couldn't help but roll her eyes and corrected: "Dage means goddess in Hu language, not big brother."...
