Zhao Jun harbored an unknown secret: she was an online friend with His Highness the First Emperor from thousands of years ago. Every time she sent him cheap items like water cups and glass, she cou...
The next morning, the captain's soldiers were ready to go.
Xiao He and Liu Ji have also gotten up and are ready to start today's journey.
Zhao Jun was the last one to get up, but everyone else was shocked when they saw her.
"Sir, what are you wearing?"
Xiao He looked at the person opposite him in surprise, and Liu Ji was also surprised.
Zhao Jun glanced at them indifferently, wondering what the fuss was about.
Zhao Jun's outfit today is indeed very special. After all, the next journey can only be done on foot, and some may even involve walking on mountain roads, so of course he has to be prepared.
Xiao He still felt a little uncomfortable, even though she was wrapped tightly all over.
But the clothes still looked weird.
Zhao Jun was wearing all black, which she had changed into with her modern sister Sun before coming here.
Inside the upper body is a black base shirt that covers from the neck to the wrists.
The pants are also a tight black stretch pants.
But she wore a very long black dress on the outside, which covered the tight-fitting base layer and the tight buttocks and long legs, so as not to reveal all the curves.
He must be wearing a pair of black half boots on his feet, and even a pair of black gloves on his hands.
Normally, snakes, insects, rats and ants wouldn't be able to get into her skin.
She tied all her long hair into a high ponytail.
The whole person looks very dashing.
Everyone in the yard couldn't help but look at her.
Although her black outfit looked a bit strange, it was not too revealing, but instead made her look more capable.
"We're going to hike up a mountain road next, and we might even have to spend the night in the mountains, so we need to dress warmly."
"Liu Ji, look at your robe. It will definitely be torn into pieces by the tree in the end."
Zhao Jun complained about the outfits of several other people.
But she couldn't make it like this for everyone, so they could only rely on themselves from now on.
"My Lord, what is that in your hand?"
Liu Ji noticed that Zhao Jun was holding something in his hand.
Zhao Jun smiled and pulled out the short thing in his hand, which immediately turned into a long stick.
"This is a trekking pole, used to assist in climbing."
Liu Ji's face was full of envy, Xiao He was so surprised that even the captain waiting behind was shocked.
"Sir, you are so well prepared."
Xiao He didn't know how she could prepare so many things, as if she knew the terrain here very well.
A few people were sighing when suddenly a person walked in from the door. It was their guide this time and the county lieutenant Su Junqiang.
As soon as Su Junqiang came in, he noticed Zhao Jun's attire and the stick in his hand.
"Sir, the team outside is almost ready and can set off soon."
"Okay, let's go now."
The huge team walked towards the door.
Su Junqiang followed behind Zhao Jun and couldn't help but ask.
"Master, you have been to a place with dense forests before. You are well prepared with clothes and sticks."
"I haven't been there, but I did some research before coming here."
Zhao Jun replied with a smile.
Outside the gate, Su Junqiang also brought a lot of soldiers from Ba County. They were all carrying bags and were fully prepared.
"Sir, let's set off now."
Su Junqiang stood beside the team and asked Zhao Jun in a low voice.
"Well, let's go."
After the two groups joined together, they began to move towards Linjiao County.
As soon as they left Ba County, Zhao Jun and his companions saw endless mountains in the distance.
The road surface gradually became bumpy and covered with weeds.
At dusk on the first day they entered the dense woods.
It was early spring, and the growing branches and leaves of the trees blocked the sun in the sky.
The ground was covered with weeds and leaves.
They camped in the woods on the first night.
Xiao He, who had never seen such scenery or entered such a dense forest, was attracted by the scenery along the way.
I have never had the experience of sleeping outdoors in the woods at night like this.
"Sir, how far do we have to go before we get to our destination?"
On the other side, Liu Ji leaned against a big tree and spoke weakly.
He had no mind to look at the scenery around him. He was almost dead tired.
"It's still four days. Just bear with it."
Zhao Jun wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The journey on the first day was relatively easy. She used to be a fan of mountain climbing, so she didn't feel too tired.
"Sir, these incense sticks are for you to use. Light them up and keep them near you to keep away mosquitoes."
Su Junqiang walked over with a few lit incense sticks.
The King of Zhao didn't know what kind of incense it was, so he gave it to Xiao He instead.
She took out a small bottle from her bag.
Floral water is essential for mountain climbing.
The first day's journey was generally easy.
But the road ahead is becoming increasingly difficult.
The next day they had to go down a steep slope. The slope was very steep, there were no steps and it was all mud. Xiao He fell several times here.
On the third day, we had to cross a river. The water was very fast and there was no suspension bridge, so everyone had to wade through the water.
The time came to the fourth day.
"Sir, we have already traveled more than halfway. We will probably reach the destination on the morning of the sixth day."
Su Junqiang handed Zhao Jun the hot water he had just boiled.
Zhao Jun was already so exhausted that he was almost dying.
After four days of sleeping in the open air and eating out, she felt that the 81 difficulties of the Journey to the West were nothing more than this.
Xiao He and Liu Ji were also exhausted.
Only now did they truly witness the horror of the terrain of Ba County.
Even though the mountains are so deep and the journey is so long, the people in the mountains can still come out to do business.
