"Why did they invite us along?" Han Mingxi asked in a low voice, "If it's because of my identity, he should have greeted me directly. After all, my big brother has a good relationship with the Yanwang Chamber's Chamber of Commerce. "
Ye Li shook her head and said, "It shouldn't be. Before you came, they invited me once, but I refused."
Han Mingxi rubbed his chin and said, "Sickly Scholar's purpose in coming to Nanjiang must not be simple. But why did he come with that rich merchant? Ordinary rich merchants can't invite him. As for the medicinal herbs business … … People who do medicinal herbs business won't personally come to Nanjiang in March or April. " Da Chu State and Nanjiang had a lot of exchanges because of Nanjiang's rare medicinal herbs. But looking at Yonglin City's desolate appearance, it was clear that it was not the time to do medicinal herbs business. Ye Li held her forehead and said, "Do you think that someone who dares to be with Sickly Scholar is an ordinary rich merchant?"
Han Mingxi raised his eyebrows, "Is there a problem?"
Ye Li was silent for a moment, "I can't see it for now." But since they were shaken, they must figure out whether it was a coincidence or deliberate.
The group quickly met at the entrance of the inn, then they left the city and went to Shattered Snow Pass. What surprised Ye Li was that the rich merchant looked like he had a big belly, but his horsemanship was actually pretty good. It was just that it made people worry for the horse he was riding. Sickly Scholar coughed the whole way since he got on the horse. It looked like he was going to cough out his heart and lungs if he wasn't careful. When they passed through Shattered Snow Pass, Ye Li turned around and saw Murong Ting standing on the city wall with a radiant face. She was happily talking to the middle-aged man next to her. Presumably, after leaving the constraints of the capital, Murong Ting's life was very happy. Ye Li was also happy for her good friend. She smiled faintly and turned around to follow the people in front.
"Drink some water." After leaving Shattered Snow Pass, they hurried all the way until the sky gradually darkened. Obviously, they had missed their lodging today. Moreover, although the wilderness of Nanjiang was very dangerous, the homes and inns of the residents of Nanjiang were not necessarily safe for the people of the Central Plains.
An San skillfully entered the forest. Not long after, he came out with a pile of firewood and a pheasant. Then, he started the fire and prepared the game. Zheng Kui also caught a few fish from the nearby river. Ye Li glanced at Sickly Scholar, who was coughing violently under the tree. She frowned and handed him some water. Sickly Scholar was obviously stunned for a moment before reaching out his right hand to take the water bottle. He nodded to Ye Li and said in a low voice, "Thank you." Ye Li nodded and sat back down. Although Sickly Scholar looked like he was on the verge of death, Ye Li would never underestimate him. It was better to stay as far away from this kind of person as possible, especially when he had a grudge against Mo Xiuyao.
Han Mingxi leaned against the tree in boredom. He watched as An San prepared the game on the fire and prepared to roast it. He smiled at Ye Li and said, "Junwei, Brother Zhuo is really not simple. I have never seen someone who can do this so neatly. Even those Jianghu people who often sleep in the wilderness can't compare. "An San, who was sitting by the fire, raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything. He wouldn't tell Han Mingxi what kind of training the four brothers had gone through in the last half year under the cliff of Black Cloud Peak. In fact, the brothers still didn't understand how their master could have so many strange ideas and training methods in his head. Especially the wilderness survival training. Each of them was thrown into a vast and seemingly endless forest to accompany poisonous insects, rats, and ants for an entire month. The only weapons he carried with him were a dagger and a crossbow with only five arrows. In the beginning, they couldn't understand how this kind of training was useful for them who had martial arts and qinggong. But after a month, An Er, who was the first to come out of the forest with tattered clothes, defeated An Yi, An Si, and himself. Originally, the four of them were basically evenly matched. Even if there was a slight difference between them, the one who won was definitely an arrow at the end of its flight. But that time, An Er displayed his prowess and defeated An Yi, then himself, and finally perished together with An Si. They clearly didn't learn any other martial arts and their internal strength didn't even increase. An Er's change made them both shocked and overjoyed.
Only when An San went in himself did he know what An Er had experienced. Poisonous snakes, poisonous insects, poisonous grass, swamps, wild beasts. In the beginning, he didn't even dare to close his eyes at night. Because sometimes when he woke up from his sleep, he would find himself surrounded by a pack of wolves or a highly poisonous snake staring at him with its tongue out. Every day, he had to find food by himself and gather the things that the wangfei ordered. The most unlucky time was when he was trapped in a swamp for three hours. He almost thought that he was going to die. But in the last few days of the month, he found that he had gradually adapted to the terrible environment. Even without martial arts, he could still survive in the forest. Even if he didn't eat or sleep for a day and night, he wouldn't feel too uncomfortable. These were definitely not things that pure martial arts could do. From the day he walked out of the forest alive, he found out that the wangfei was secretly following them after they entered the forest. An San truly wholeheartedly submitted to this young wangfei. They all knew in their hearts that their master was definitely the most amazing of all the wangfei of the Ding country. The only thing that made An San regretful was that the original Consort I had planned a lot of things to give them, but because of the Prince's illness, it was interrupted.
"Young Master Han is right. Brother Zhuo's skill is so skilled that even the old escorts who have been in the escort business for decades can't compare." Zheng Kui looked at the half-cooked fish in his hand, then looked at the delicious game in An San's hand that was comparable to the roasted chicken in a restaurant. He was extremely jealous. He had only caught a few fish from the river, but this serious brother had already started a fire, caught a pheasant, and roasted it. He also took the time to go into the forest to pick up some mushrooms to make soup. His master was staring at the fish in his hand with dissatisfaction. His oily face was full of disdain.
Ye Li looked at Han Mingxi with a smile and said, "Zhuo Jing has been taking care of me all this time. He's smart, so he naturally learned."
Han Mingxi's face was full of disbelief. He also often slept in the wild. Even now, the food he roasted was still black and he didn't dare to eat it.
An San calmly divided the game into three portions and handed them to Ye Li and Han Mingxi, as if he didn't hear his master's praise. He definitely wouldn't tell this playboy that his master could do better than him. Looking at the intoxicated Young Master Feng Yue holding the wild game, An San suddenly felt a strange sense of superiority.
"Young Master Zhuo is proficient in the art of poison?" Sickly Scholar, who was sitting to the side, drank a few mouthfuls of water as if suppressing his coughing. He raised his head and asked An San. An San turned to look at him and said indifferently, "I don't understand."
Sickly Scholar raised his eyebrows and said with an expression of disbelief, "There are many poisonous creatures in Nan Jiang. Even most of the fungi in the forest are highly poisonous. But I see that the ones we pick are all non-poisonous. "
