Cub Nursery

When Gouzi was sneaking around and struggling with his body, he once thought about what it would be like to become a serious Taoist soldier in the future, and he also thought about what it would be like to go to the border town in the future.

He secretly asked about the appearance of the border town.

At that time, he was still young, and he heard General Dog tell someone he didn't know.

That year, the crops planted in Shangyuan Village were almost useless, and every household had no grain storage, and all they ate were wild vegetables. The situation in Qiyuan County was a little better, but there was no place to dig wild vegetables in Qiyuan County. A little food, but also hungry, the situation is not much better than in the village.

Some people starved to death in some places. The county magistrate of Qiyuan County had no choice but to send three groups of people to Wotu City, Mie Yao City and Border Town to see if they could borrow some food.

The man who talked secretly with General Dog was one of those people who went to the border town.

"The situation in the border town is not as good as ours. We still have wild vegetables in our village. If we are lucky, we can find game and wild fruits. But in the border town, there is no field at all. No grass grows anywhere, and even the bark can't be eaten. .”

"The frontier towns all rely on the imperial court to allocate some money and food. I met some military households, and they were all hungry and emaciated."

"There is some food in the camp in the border town. The general saw us and gave us a few bags of food, which were all picked out between our teeth. Although we are not very good people, the food given by the border town is life-saving. Something, we have to remember."

The man spoke in a low voice, and his voice became lower and lower as he went behind.

"Wotu City and Mieyao City also gave some food, which is similar to that given by the border town. The adults over there said that Qiyuan County is not under their control, and asked us to find a way to go to the capital to ask. But where is the capital, we Can we go to the border town alive? Even if we go to the border town, will we have a way to meet the adults in charge?"

"Qiyuan County is really nobody's business, it's all up to us to fend for ourselves. General Dog, listen to my brother, let's try to get more food, and when we have the opportunity to go to other places to make a living in the future, don't guard against it. Here it is."

The young dog listened stealthily, vaguely feeling that life in Biancheng seems to be very bad, but in comparison, Biancheng is always much better than Qiyuan County, right?

He made up his mind at that time, he must not forget to exercise his body, if he has the opportunity to become a Taoist soldier in the future, then he must go to the border town!

At this moment when Yan Xun asked this question, he remembered his thoughts at that time.

"The border town is a good place to kill monsters!" Shahu also said, "I heard that the outer city wall guarded by the border town towers into the sky, connecting the sky above and grounding below, completely separating the demon kingdom from Daqin, is that true? "

In that case, the outer city wall must be much taller than the mountain. In that case, the Taoist soldiers guarding the outer city wall and beheading monsters are so majestic.

"Want to go to the border town?" Yan Xun asked.

As soon as the sand fox's eyes lit up, even the dog's son's eyes lit up, and his breathing became even more rapid.

Of course they want to go to the border town.

"The sand fox and the red fox can go. The son of a dog has to stay, I have other arrangements." Yan Xun said calmly, "But when you all have the opportunity to go to the border town in the future, don't worry too much now." The latter sentence is obviously correct. What the dog son said.

He was very thoughtful, instantly understood Yan Xun's meaning, and said, "Let the sand fox and red fox go."

"But we have never traveled far before." Shahu hesitated and said, "My lord, we brothers may not even be able to leave Qiyuan County. If we could, we would have run out long ago. I am not afraid of the danger outside." , for fear of getting lost."

"Don't worry about that." Yan Xun glanced at Jing Fengye.

Jing Fengye immediately took out a smooth iron lump, pressed it in front of the sand fox, and the iron lump opened immediately. Inside were two dials, two pointers, one slowly turning, and one dripping. Turning around, it looks very weird.

"This pointer can tell the time, and this pointer can help you to identify the direction." Yan Xun took the pocket watch and operated it in front of the sand fox and the red fox, "There is also a signal flare inside, don't use the signal flare unless it is absolutely necessary. Do you see the direction?"

"Yes!" Sand Fox said loudly.

The pointer is weird, it always points in the same direction, and the sand fox can see it clearly at a glance.

Yan Xun handed the pocket watch to Shahu, "Both of you, go now. I don't have much money now, I can only give you a Ganoderma lucidum. When you are sick, you can take a bite, and you can also eat it."

Jing Fengye next to him hurriedly took out the Guiyuan blue Ganoderma lucidum wrapped in tattered green cotton cloth, and handed it directly to Shahu.

"I'll give you another token." Yan Xun looked at Feng Ye again.

As a result, the umbrella was in tatters, all the organs were destroyed, and the green cotton cloth was turned into strips, and the horrific umbrella fell into the hands of Shahu.

"Use it as a crutch." Yan Xun smiled, "Go to General Dog to get some dry food, go."

The sand fox grabbed the red fox's hand and turned to look at the dog son.

"I'll take you there." The dog son stared at the old green cotton cloth in the sand fox's hand, then glanced at the tattered battle umbrella, and said calmly, "Go and wait outside first, I'll get some dry food for you." You send it."

Shahu looked back at Yan Xun, saw him nodding, and then pulled his younger brother out.

After a while, General Dog came back and asked directly, "What am I doing?"

"No rush." ​​Yan Xun picked up Xiao Hei who was sleeping on his feet, poked Xiao Hei's soft belly, and signaled Jing Fengye to relax, "I have no talent, neither cultivation nor cultivation, There are no cultivation skills now. He is a monster and doesn’t know much about Dao soldiers, so you have to wait. Guiyuan blue ganoderma is good for cultivation, so I can’t give it to you now, and I will give it to you when I get the skills in the future.”

"Not in a hurry." The son of the dog was short of breath.

He believed what Yan Xun said, Guiyuan blue Ganoderma lucidum must be a treasure, otherwise Yan Xun would not say that this thing can directly save the lives of sand foxes and red foxes, and what Yan Xun said was an understatement, it is obvious that this kind of good thing does not care about people No matter what, it can be saved.

And Yan Xun still has to help him find the exercises, but this is enough for Gouzi to wait with all his patience.

"Now you don't have to do anything, let your father be like before." Yan Xun said calmly, "You just need to follow your father and watch silently. Didn't the farmers in Shangyuan Village want to go to other villages to see?" ? I think this idea is very good, and it is also very good to go to Qiyuan County in a few days."

"Okay." The son of a dog took a deep breath, turned around and went out, looking for General Dog to arrange.

He could vaguely understand Yan Xun's intentions.

The whole place of Qiyuan County doesn't care about it, and whoever has the biggest fist counts what he says every year.For example, in Shangyuan Village, even if there is no General Dog, there will be General Donkey, General Horse, and General Pig, and the same is true for other villages.

After so many years, the entire Qiyuan County has many established rules, but Yan Xun is an outsider, if he really wants to do something, the first thing to do is to break these established rules.

And the most labor-saving way is of course to let General Dog be one group of people, and those who have been oppressed to be one group of people, and the two groups of people will turn the world upside down and confuse the water, so that Yan Xun can fish in troubled waters.

As for Yan Xun himself, not only did he not show up, he didn't even intervene much, he just moved his lips, that's all.

For several days in succession, Sand Fox would take out his pocket watch and take a sneaky look at it from time to time to make sure that he was going in the right direction before continuing to move forward.

His luck is very good, except for the village along the way, there are towns that are similar to the village.

Anyway, as long as he encounters a place where there are people, Shahu will ask his brother to wait outside, and go up to ask if he can ask for a bite of food. Anyway, the dry food on his body is reluctant to eat, maybe he can wait for some time help.

As for the fragrant Guiyuan blue Ganoderma lucidum, which can give you a hundred times of energy just by smelling it, the brothers are even more reluctant to eat it. They also picked a lot of leaves and wrapped them outside and tied them inside their clothes. They would not take them off even at night. lost.

On the other hand, the umbrellas are tattered, and the iron pieces are dirty. They look like they were picked up, and the brothers took turns using them as crutches when they came.

Just rushing on the road during the day and finding a place to rest at night, it turned out to be a smooth journey.

On this day, Shahu asked his younger brother to wait outside the city, while he stepped forward to inquire to see if he could enter the city to beg for some food.

The city in front of me is much more magnificent than Qiyuan County, even the guards are not ordinary men, but Taoist soldiers with cultivation base, standing there wearing armor, they are very dignified.

This kind of place is basically very rich. A skinny beggar like Shahu can get a lot of food if he doesn’t meet the local beggars. It will not be very strict. Basically, a genuine little beggar like sand fox will let it go.

Sure enough, the sand fox entered the city smoothly. Leaning on the wreckage of the battle umbrella, he walked around quickly, begged for some food, and turned and left the city without hesitation.

Some local beggars are not to be messed with, and they may be beaten to death if they are not careful. Shahu encounters them once and escapes with difficulty, so he has a heart, and he no longer dares to be greedy for the prosperity of the city.

After leaving the city and meeting the red fox, the brothers didn't dare to stay, but changed places without stopping.

"Brother, look, buns." Shahu said excitedly, "the young master of a rich family bought buns and didn't like to eat them. He threw away one after he ate one bite. I picked up six and watched the other beggars eat them. I also found it, so I hurried back. It’s a stuffed bun with meat, try it.”

"Wash it with water." The red fox hurriedly said, "How long has it been since we ate steamed stuffed buns, this tastes delicious, and it really is stuffed with meat."

The dusty bun was washed clean with water. The red fox took a bite out of the bun and narrowed his eyes happily.

Shahu also washed a steamed stuffed bun, and said while eating: "If there is a chance, let's light a fire and bake it to make it more delicious."

"En." The red fox nodded sharply.

The remaining four bun brothers were not willing to eat, but put them on a clean stone to dry, and then carefully picked them up, saving them for next time.

"Brother, the life outside is really good. Like our village, even if you ask for food, you may not be able to stutter." Chihu said with emotion, "Brother, you said that we could never leave Shangyuan Village, let alone Qiyuan. County, why did you come out so smoothly this time?"

I have encountered countless desperation before, and it is not that the brothers have never thought about leaving Shangyuan Village directly. No matter where they are going, as long as they can have a stutter, no matter how they go, they will definitely go around in the end. return.

Shahu took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and said, "Maybe it's because of your son, he is our nobleman."

"Yes." The red fox nodded.

The days to come went more smoothly, and occasionally met some people with ulterior motives, but both brothers escaped smoothly.

It is only when we are close to the border towns that we really have hard times.

The large expanse of land next to the dirt road is really barren of grass. When you get closer, you can see some weeds, but there are too few.

There are no people on the road, even if there are no people in other places, there will always be a post station beside the official road. Even if the sand fox and red fox can't live in the post station, it is much safer to stay in the corner before going to the front wall at night than other places, but the closer to the border town, The more there is no station.

In many places, huge pits can still be seen, and it will take the brothers several days to detour.

But even so, even after seeing the prosperity outside and seeing how easy it is to make a living outside, Sand Fox and Red Fox didn't think about living in other places, nor did they think about going to the border town.

The two brothers ate the last bit of dry food on their bodies, and they were so hungry, holding the tattered umbrella, and moved forward bit by bit.

The Guiyuan blue Ganoderma lucidum in their arms exudes a sweet and tempting smell, but neither of the brothers thought of taking a bite, because it is not yet the end of the mountain.

The two of them walked forward step by step, their bodies were stiff, and they didn't even rest at night, because they were afraid that once they fell asleep, they would never wake up again, so they also walked forward at night, occasionally stopping to take out their pocket watches. , and move on.

Finally, they came to the gate of the border town.

The Taoist soldier on the watchtower saw the child below at a glance. He ran down quickly and stood behind the gate and asked, "Hey, how did you two come here? Our border towns are not in the front of the village. There are no shops in the back. Ordinary people can't come here." .”

It is said that the capital still wants to send people here, but they heard that the post stations around the border town have been uprooted and there is no place to stay on the road.

Someone came up with Brother Huan's idea and wanted to come by train, how could Brother Huan agree?

So there is still noise in the capital, and no one has been sent over the past few days.

Dao Bing couldn't help muttering in his heart, could it be that the people in the capital were confused and sent two children?

Another Taoist soldier who had been resting in the watchtower raised his head when he heard the movement. When he saw the child below, he jumped up, ran down quickly, pushed away his colleagues, opened the door and rushed out.

"Where did the thing in your hand come from?" He almost tremblingly asked.

Shahu remembered Yan Xun's advice, as long as you get to the border town, you don't have to be on guard, you can say anything, so he said honestly: "It's the crutch that the young master gave us."

"Show me more?" Dao Bing asked.

Shahu then handed over the umbrella in his hand.

The Taoist soldier held the umbrella in both hands and watched it carefully.

Although the organ is no longer usable, and many fragments of the organ are gone, the tattered green cotton cloth on it is real, and the battle umbrella...is also real.

After confirming that the umbrella in his hand was real, the Taoist soldier suddenly realized, and said to his colleagues, "Go over there, look for Brother Dan, and say you found it outside."

"Yes!" The Taoist soldier who came down first was a novice, his cultivation level was not high, and he came out of the camp in the border town to practice. Naturally, he didn't dare to say anything to the seniors at this time, and ran away in a hurry.He knew who Brother Dan was, although he had never met him.

At the gate here, Dao Bing didn't continue to ask questions. He knew that he would notify the cubs in the nursery hall and let Brother Dan come out, and it would be nothing to him. The cubs would definitely handle it properly.

On the other side, the Taoist soldiers rushed all the way to the concrete building.

Ever since Yan Xun went to the Demon Country and never came back, the cubs didn’t come out of the concrete building easily. On the one hand, it was to avoid suspicion, and on the other hand, it was also to protect themselves, but brother Dan was an exception, he often ran out for a walk every now and then.

And now is the most suitable time for Brother Dan to come forward.

After entering the room, Dao Bing hurriedly said something.

All the cubs in the room turned around abruptly, and even Dan Honghong, who was lying down and sleeping, bounced up in an instant.But they reacted quickly, suppressed their excitement, and stared at Brother Dan, expressing thousands of words with their eyes.

Brother Dan jumped up from the kang, landed at the feet of the Taoist soldiers, and said calmly, "Let's go!"
