Chapter 487 She Still Has Plenty of Opportunities
Traveling at night, Ye Jinghua was also feeling very irritated.
Although no one in the team dared to say anything, he was aware of the depressing and depressing atmosphere.
Around him, except for Lieutenant General Ma who was still trying hard to keep up with his footsteps, the Snake Wizard was leaning on a branch and was unable to keep up.
And there was the girl Mo Yan, who he had sent out to explore the way before. She was stung the worst by a poisonous bee. Her face was swollen like a pig's head, and there were many lumps on her body.
Although I applied medicine, the pain was still there and the swelling did not go away.
The roads in the forest were rugged and horses could not be ridden, so their horses were left outside the forest, guarded by a small team of logistics soldiers. In addition to the horses, there were also some stored food and supplies.
If a war really breaks out in Blackrock Mountain or Nanlin City, if anything happens, a message will be sent to the logistics people to provide support.
At this time, Mo Yan was half-dragged and half-pulled by a soldier, and was staggering as she walked.
Ye Jinghua naturally didn't care about these things. He was willing to bring this woman with him just to have someone to serve him on the road, and to occasionally throw her out to take the blame if something happened.
The team struggled forward in the rugged forest. When it became completely dark, they did not dare to light torches for fear of attracting wild beasts, so they could only move forward in the dark.
Finally, someone in the team couldn't hold on any longer and fell down, and then one after another, many people couldn't hold on any longer.
Ye Jinghua was furious and anxious, but he had no choice but to stop and said to Deputy General Ma, "Pass the order down and set up camp to rest."
"Everyone has traveled hard today, so you should rest well so you will have the strength to continue tomorrow."
Lieutenant General Ma thought they would not get any rest tonight, but when he heard Ye Jinghua's words, he burst into tears of joy.
He nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes! I obey your orders! Your Majesty is wise!"
It was dark, and he couldn't see the impatient expression on Ye Jinghua's face, so he went down excitedly to give the order to set up camp.
The snake wizard also breathed a sigh of relief and found a big tree to sit down under.
The bad journey in the past few days made him doubt whether the "Geography and Scenery" that Ye Jinghua got was fake.
Why is it that the book clearly says that the road to the west is unobstructed and that they can hunt a lot of wild animals to satisfy their hunger, but they have been unlucky for two consecutive days, either suffering from black bears or poisonous bees?
Mo Yan also sat down to rest. The big bump on her face was very painful, so she asked the doctor for some herbal medicine to apply on her face.
However, just as she applied the medicine, Ye Jinghua walked over with a cold face.
"Your Highness." Mo Yan called him timidly.
Ye Jinghua hummed a cold "hmm" from his nose as a response, then sat down beside her and closed his eyes to take a nap.
Mo Yan originally followed the snake wizard, and now she has finally crawled to Ye Jinghua's side. Naturally, she knows his temperament and daily habits very well.
Seeing him like this, she knew that Ye Jinghua was also very tired, and immediately said, "Your Highness, please take a rest. I will go find some water and get it for you to wash and clean your wounds."
Ye Jinghua also had blisters on his face and hands from being stung by poisonous bees, but he was protected by soldiers at the time, so he suffered fewer injuries than others.
"Thank you for your hard work." Ye Jinghua's voice sounded listless.
Mo Yan was still delighted and smiled: "It's not hard. Serving the prince is my duty. It's my duty."
Ye Jinghua glanced at her coldly. Mo Yan stopped talking and put away her smile. She saluted him, picked up a torch, and went to look for water.
Before coming, Ye Jinghua promised her that he would marry her as his concubine after he returned from victory.
Mo Yan was moved. As a girl from a peasant family, she was very content to be a concubine.
Moreover, Ye Jinghua's wife is gentle and easy to control, and she gave birth to a daughter, so she still has plenty of opportunities.
Therefore, she didn't care about Ye Jinghua's cold words at the moment. She just thought that Ye Jinghua was tired after a day and was in a bad mood.
Just as she was lost in thought, Mo Yan suddenly heard exclamations and shouts coming from not far away.
“Ahhhh!”
"Help! Help me!"
"This...what the hell is this!?"
Ye Jinghua naturally heard this terrified shout.
He suddenly woke up, picked up his sword, and rushed towards the direction of the sound. Lieutenant General Ma beside him quickly followed.
Mo Yan didn't dare to join in the fun. She looked around and went to find the snake wizard who was sitting motionless under a big tree.
When Ye Jinghua arrived, the place was already in chaos.
Many soldiers were waving their swords, seemingly hacking at something.
At first, he thought that Ye Jingzhen had sent people to launch a sneak attack.
But he soon found out that it was not the case, because there seemed to be something huge crawling on the ground at a very fast speed, rushing towards where the soldiers were gathered.
Many soldiers and generals were thrown to the ground and had their necks bitten off before they could swing their swords to kill.
Another black shadow flashed by, and Ye Jinghua's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He raised his hand and chopped with a knife, but he felt that he had hit something hard.
He swung his knife a few more times before finally killing the big thing.
At this time, Deputy General Ma had already mobilized a lot of soldiers to come over and continue to hack and kill these huge monsters with hard leather armor.
Ye Jinghua made some time, took the torch from a soldier next to him, and shone it on the ground.
When he saw the photo, his heart sank.
How could that be?
These huge things are actually earth dragons?!
Isn’t Tulongtan on the road to the east?
Why do they have earth dragons here? !
He was extremely surprised, but he had no time to think about it anymore. The earth dragons gathered more and more, and he had to join in and kill them with the soldiers.
It took them another half day to repel these crazy earth dragons, but because the incident happened suddenly, many soldiers were still killed.
Looking at the black corpses of earth dragons and the mutilated bodies of soldiers all over the ground, Ye Jinghua felt more and more irritated.
Originally, his team had nearly 10,000 more people than Ye Jingzhen's, but unexpectedly, they suffered a lot of casualties in the woods along the way.
"Don't gather here. Go back to your tents and rest." He said coldly and walked away.
The remaining few soldiers were still gathered here, and did not move for a while.
They couldn't understand why there was a earth dragon here since it was just a shallow pond.
In fact, what they didn’t know was that it was this small shallow pool that was connected to the river on Ye Jingzhen’s side.
These earth dragons had suffered a brutal massacre in the east by Ye Jingzhen and Yun Ran before, and were frightened away, so they all rushed here.
Unexpectedly, I ran into them.
On this side, Ye Jinghua's team was exhausted. Almost everyone was injured and had no experience in hunting. They took out the dry food they brought with them and ate it silently.
On the other side, Yun Ran and Miao Yi, with the Lone King and the Black King, quickly found the two wild fruits that Yun Ran wanted.
Before they came, the two took two blankets from the tent that they used to cover themselves, specifically to hold the wild fruits.
Both Litsea cubeba and Cornus officinalis were easy to find, so the two of them divided the work, one picking Litsea cubeba and the other picking Cornus officinalis. They soon picked a lot and filled the cloth bag made of a blanket.
The Black King and the Lone King were running wild not far from them, and happened to catch a few fat pheasants and roe deer. They ran back happily to take credit for it to Yun Ran and Miao Yi.
