The speed was slower than he had expected.
That mountain was so big that their army could easily blend in, so why were they taking so long to descend?
We didn't encounter any ferocious beasts during the process, but their tutorials were exceptionally slow.
Some of the military officers were struggling to keep up, and Mu Xi's eyes flashed with helplessness. His subordinates were all elites, and now he was leading a group of new recruits who seemed to know nothing. It was truly a headache.
"Take your time, there's plenty of time."
Dou Shiliu soaked the handkerchief in water, wrung it out, and after Mu Xi finished washing up, the two of them still went to bed as if they were guests.
The next day, it was the same as usual, but in the evening, it was a few minutes faster than yesterday.
But only a few minutes
Dou Shiliu and Muxi discussed it, and then Muxi gave her a task.
"Can"
Mu Xi was slightly taken aback, not expecting Dou Shiliu to agree so quickly, and felt a little sad.
"...You think the military camp is bad?"
Dou Shiliu's eyes sparkled: "I will do whatever you say."
Muxi: "..."
He was used to Dou Shiliu constantly clinging to him, so his sudden agreeable behavior left him quite taken aback.
She shook her head, told Dou Shiliu the important matter, and then nodded.
On the third day, the soldiers discovered that the woman who had been following General Mu was gone, but of course, this was none of their business.
They just wanted to conquer that mountain quickly.
...
And in a foreign country
"Xiao Liu, could you please feed your child some milk? She keeps crying."
Hao Tian spoke in front of the carriage, while inside, Dou Shiliu, dressed in exotic clothing, expressionlessly took out goat milk powder from her spatial storage and stuffed it into the wailing baby.
If it weren't for passing by a place where he witnessed a family being wiped out, and just as Dou Shiliu was about to leave, he was discovered by them and naturally chased after him to kill him, resulting in his own death.
But that family left behind a child. So, amidst Bai Tuan's roar, Dou Shiliu heartlessly picked her up and started walking.
On the way, he met Hao Tian, who was doing business in a foreign country. He saw that Dou Shiliu was all alone, a mute, and had a child with him, which made him feel sorry for her.
So I took them with me on the road.
As for how he knew her name, well, Hao Tian just picked it randomly, and damn it, he got it right.
To avoid trouble, Dou Shiliu didn't say a word.
The baby in her arms, full and happy, smiled at Dou Shiliu and kept tugging at her long hair with her little hand.
Dou Shiliu looked at her with icy eyes, his large, grape-like eyes fixed on her without blinking.
So Bai Tuan saw Dou Shiliu reach out his hand, and Bai Tuan was speechless.
Wouldn't that be that cruel?
Dou Shiliu's slender fingers stopped on the baby's slightly rustling head, and she tugged at her hair with a very light touch, but in an incredibly childish way.
Dou Shiliu silently withdrew his hand, and they were even.
Despite the bumpy ride on the horse track, the little guy slept soundly.
Dou Shiliu wrapped her up tightly. Hao Tian, driving outside, couldn't stop the child's crying and couldn't help but say, "Xiao Liu, we're about to enter the foreign city, so please bear with it."
No response
Hao Tian didn't care. He just reminded Dou Shiliu that it wasn't easy for a mute person.
Dou Shiliu: "..."
She didn't want to explain anything...
...
Upon arriving in the foreign country, Hao Tian and Dou Shiliu were stopped.
"examine"
The guards came over and said sternly, and Hao Tian quickly handed over his pass to cross the city.
Let's go.
Hao Tian was someone they knew, so the soldiers just glanced at him casually and let them pass.
Dou Shiliu glanced at the notice and saw that the city had already notified Fengluo Kingdom of their intention to attack a foreign country, but no one seemed to care.
They have an unusually high level of confidence in their own abilities, even though they are from a foreign country.
After Dou Shiliu and Haotian entered the city, Haotian found a place to stop, and she got off the bus with the child in her arms.
As soon as she came down, she glanced at Haotian and handed the child to him. Haotian assumed she needed to use the restroom, so he took the child.
Dou Shiliu turned around and left without looking back.
Turning around, Dou Shiliu carefully observed the passing patrol soldiers.
She turned and headed to the restaurant. Her purpose this time was to gather intelligence and see what preparations the foreign country had made and how they would deal with the situation.
Drinking, brothels, and storytelling houses also make for a wonderful setting.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Dou Shiliu had almost completely figured out the truth about the foreign country, but it was a mix of fact and fiction, and it was hard to say whether it was 100% true.
Now she's going to the tailor shop to make something.
Do you have this?
Dou Shiliu took out a blueprint from his pocket. It showed an exceptionally beautiful dress, a dress that Yan Xiaoyan had come up with on a whim. Dou Shiliu planned to wear this dress to sneak into the palace.
White Group: "What a clever feint!"
Dou Shiliu: "..."
After the shop assistant finished preparing the food, Dou Shiliu took it and came out. As luck would have it, she caught sight of Hao Tian holding a crying baby and looking around.
Dou Shiliu turned and disappeared in a flash.
This child doesn't belong to her; if you want to raise him, then go ahead and raise him yourselves.
Dou Shiliu left the alley in a few flashes, only to be surrounded by people as soon as he was caught.
After several rounds, Dou Shiliu felt dizzy and lightheaded, and her eyes turned cold—she had been drugged.
"You're quite pretty, young lady, so come with me."
The owner of that tailor shop
"I'm so jealous!" Dou Shiliu bit her tongue to clear her head and then quickly ran away.
The skills in this world allowed Dou Shiliu to escape smoothly, but she got dizzy around the corner. In the instant Dou Shiliu closed her eyes, she saw Hao Tian running towards her with a child in his arms.
Emerging from the tiger's den, only to find oneself in a wolf's lair.
Dou Shiliu suddenly opened her eyes, felt the warmth around her, and felt a chill in her heart. She turned her head and saw a little face sucking on her fingers, smiling at her.
Dou Shiliu: "..."
The two, one big and one small, looked at each other for a few moments.
The little guy let out a fart with a grin, which made Dou Shiliu frown and push her away in disgust.
Hao Tian came in and saw Dou Shiliu trying to put on his shoes. He quickly said, "What are you doing, Xiao Liu? Do you know I've been looking for you for ages?"
Dou Shiliu was pressed back onto the bed by Hao Tian's hand; the force on her shoulder was truly extraordinary.
His eyes flickered slightly, but he remained silent.
"You have no idea how long Xiao Liu cried!" Hao Tian sat down, thinking about how the child cried in his arms, and angrily scolded Dou Shiliu.
"Tell me, even if you're lost, you shouldn't be wandering around like that. Your child is still in my hands."
