Volume 1 Chapter 455 Return to Camp
After killing the pheasants and rabbits, he went back immediately. Now the main task is to seize every opportunity to replenish his physical strength, and then get out of the forest as soon as possible to escape their pursuit.
After seeing his men coming back with pheasants and rabbits, Chen Wei asked them to stew the pheasants and roast the rabbits immediately.
There were so many people that only a few pieces of meat could be distributed to each person, but all the pheasant soup was given to Lan Yan'er alone. After all, his face was the palest right now, and he looked like he was about to faint. He was really holding her back, so she could only nourish herself more and hold on a little longer.
They evacuated earlier than the scheduled time, so the people who were supposed to pick them up had not arrived yet. Now they could only grit their teeth and retreat successfully on their own.
In this way, several people found a place to rest during the day to avoid being tracked, and seized every opportunity to hurry on their way at night. After three days of hard work, they finally returned to their camp.
Chen Yin had already received intelligence from his subordinates when his son went to the enemy country with some safety, but he did not stop it. It was just that he had been worried and anxious in the past few days, fearing that this kid was too reckless. Fortunately, although there have been some changes now, he has returned safely.
"Father, I'm back. We met this girl on the road when we were escaping, so I brought her back with me."
Chen Yin looked at Lan Yan'er with a cold gaze. At the same time, Lan Yan'er was also looking at what kind of existence this General Shen was, who was feared by the soldiers in his own country.
Both parties were sizing each other up openly, so they saw the changes in each other's eyes. In the end, it was Chen Yin who spoke first: "Since she is a friend who has come from afar, let's find a place for her to rest!"
Chen Yin, although he knew that his son was still young and inexperienced, he would definitely not do useless work, nor would he bring such a stranger into his camp for no reason. It seemed that this girl had a great background!
Even if he is not a prominent person, at least he is a person with a story.
I have to say that Chen Yin knew the truth in an instant!
Then they were taken to rest, and Shen Wei walked towards the study with his father.
The father and son sat quietly. After Shen Wei took a sip of tea, Shen Yin asked solemnly, "Tell me, who is this girl? What are her plans?"
Chen Wei, calmly putting down the teacup in his hand, said to his father, "We brought this woman with us when we were leaving the city. If I'm not mistaken, she should be the Saint of Nanzhao. But what I don't understand is why she chose to escape when Nanzhao was defeated?"
"In order to understand his motives, I also want to learn more about what this saint does."
"That's why I took it upon myself to bring her out and into our camp, thinking it would be better to keep her in front of me than to let her escape."
Chen Yin was not particularly surprised when he heard that Lan Yan'er was a saint. From the moment they first met and looked at each other, he knew that this woman was no ordinary woman.
But he didn't expect that she was the saint of the country where he had just defeated others. Although he didn't know why he chose to escape at this moment, but as his son said, when he didn't know what the enemy was thinking, it would be safer to keep her under his nose.
"Okay, you've been tired these past few days, go and rest first. When you've rested enough, come back and review this operation with me."
"yes!"
After the father and son had a secret conversation in the study, they went back to rest.
Everyone's mentality has been tense recently, which means that now that all the work has been done, everyone can finally have a brief mental relaxation, so a bonfire dinner was held in the army.
That is to allow everyone to enjoy life despite the tension and relieve the tense and murderous atmosphere of the past.
Life still has to go on day by day. No matter what, one cannot keep a person’s string too tight all day long, otherwise the string will easily break!!!
Shen Wei asked someone to bring him hot water after returning, and took a nice hot bath. Only then did he feel that all the fatigue he had felt from hiding from place to place in the past few days was swept away.
Only then did he have time to feed his stomach. When hiding in the mountains, if he was lucky, he could hunt down pheasants and rabbits, so at least he could have some meat. But most of the time, he would just put the cupping jar on the fire, pour in some rice and water, and cook it into porridge to fill his stomach.
Life was completely boring and completely different from the life he had led as a rich young master before.
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. These past few days, I have not only been physically tired and mentally tense, but more importantly, my quality of life has dropped sharply, which makes me still unable to adapt.
I finally got back to my camp, changed all my dirty clothes, took a nice hot shower, and then when I sat down at the table, I saw a table full of delicious food.
Although he was very tempted by the delicious food on the table, he did not lose his manners and instead started eating politely.
Although the chopsticks were picked up very quickly, it did not feel very rough. Instead, it felt clean and neat.
After eating and drinking, there was nothing particularly urgent to deal with for the time being, so I could finally have a good rest for a while.
After digesting the food, he returned to his room, put his head on the pillow and fell asleep. When hiding in the woods, in order to ensure safety, he often had to patrol in the middle of the night. More importantly, there was no flat place for him to lie down and rest. Most of the time, he spent the night casually on a tree fork. He was cold and hungry in the middle of the night, his body was wet, and he was invaded by various adult insects.
The feeling was so unbearable that by the middle of the night, I felt my entire thigh was numb, not to mention being able to sleep well. The next morning, my whole body was very tired, and my back and waist were sore. The pain was simply unbearable.
