Chapter 5
Gulu, Gulu, Gululu!

Not far to the south, the grassland eagle owl's voice suddenly sounded like nothing.

Ren Ning's heart moved, and he tried to respond.

Gulu, Gululu; Gulu, Gululu!

After a while, the owl hooted again from the opposite side.

Ren Ning raised his head and glanced at the five Xiliang people.Seeing that they were still at least two miles away, they quietly slipped towards the sounding place.

Walking around several piles of lush thorns and weeds, in a bush that was neither tall nor short, Ren Ning saw a pair of shining eyes.

He has black hair and black eyes like him.

As for the skin, the opponent's whole body is either soil or blood.Ren Ning glanced at it several times, but he didn't know what skin color he was facing.

But obviously, everyone is Yunchui people of the same language and race.

"Xingluo County! Liu Goukuan." The man grinned and said the county name of the Yunchui Empire with difficulty.

Ren Ning nodded and replied softly: "Xingji City. Ren Ning."

Xingji City is the hometown of the predecessor, and it is also the imperial capital of the entire Yunchui Empire.

"It's so far away." Liu Goukuan grumbled.

From the imperial capital Xingji City to Xingluo County in the southwest region, it is more than 500 miles, which is indeed a long way.

Ren Ning remained silent, his gaze fell on the opponent's stomach.

There was a big hole there, and despite trying to seal it with bandages, some red and white intestines were still sticking out.It looks shocking.

He rummaged through his weapon bag and took out the water and minced mutton he had snatched from Xiliang people, "Brother, you are hungry, eat some!"

After finishing speaking, Ren Ning found out those life-seeking plants again, and was about to stuff them into his mouth.

"Don't bother." Liu Goukuan coughed up a mouthful of blood, and calmly smiled and refused, "Brother, keep it for yourself."

Ren Ning nodded.

With Liu Goukuan's injuries all over his body, it is already a miracle that he can still speak now.

Even so, he was ready to come over and pour some water into the other party's mouth.

"Be careful." The other party gestured to the bushes below him.

Ren Ning glanced down and suddenly realized.

Liu Goukuan used his body as a trap.As long as someone tries to move or drag his body, the trap will be activated, and then both will die.

He said lightly: "Liu Dashi is my cousin."

"Yeah!" Ren Ning nodded, he still remembered the name.

Trembling, Liu Goukuan took out a crooked spike from nowhere, "My cousin gave it to me yesterday. My niece was just born, and he prepared it for my daughter as a gift."

Ren Ning took it with both hands without hesitation, "Ren Ning swears, he will definitely take it back and hand it over to your cousin and relatives."

The Yanjun army/people keep their promises.As long as you swear by your own name, you will do it unless it is death.

"Thank you." Liu Gou breathed a sigh of relief, and said the address word by word, "Danzhutou, Shading Township, Longyuan City, Xingluo County."

The Yunchui Empire has a vast territory, and the dialects of different places are quite different.Ren Ning wasn't sure if he heard it correctly, so he had to repeat it slowly in standard imperial dialect.

Although Liu Goukuan knew some words, but not many.

He nodded indiscriminately and looked to the southeast, "Brother, let's go. I'll hold them back for a while."

Ren Ning moved his lips, but couldn't speak. After taking a deep look at him, he quickly drilled to the south.

As for the matter of waiting for Yanzhen Fortress to send troops to rescue them, they didn't even think about it.

Ren Ning did not run far, but made a detour, and carefully touched the back of the five people from Xiliang who were getting closer.

Of the five Xiliang people, Liu Goukuan estimated that one or two of them could be overshadowed, and he had to find a way to deal with the rest.

Ren Ning's eyes fell on the last soldier from Xiliang.

The number is red, but only a 25 is hung.

"It can't be done, I need to relieve myself." The soldier clutched his stomach and looked left and right.

He used to be just an ordinary Xiliang herdsman, when he was out of the house, he was accidentally dragged into a strong man, and then he came to this far east to serve in corvee.

Normally, Xiliang military officers would tie the herdsman's hands together to prevent them from escaping.If you want to solve your personal problems, you have to "let go".

But now there may be a murderous Yunchuiren ambushing in the surrounding grass.How dare the herdsmen run around, they would obediently follow them without being tied up.

The corporal on horseback pinched his nose and scolded: "Damn it. Lazy bullshit pees too much!"

"Captain, he ate badly last night." A fellow townsman next to him couldn't help defending.

The corporal slapped his horsewhip, "How many times have I told you not to eat the things from Yunchui people's corpses. Those bastards will poison your own rations before they die."

"Go away, don't smoke me."

Feeling relieved, Xiaobing hurriedly nodded and bowed in response, and nestled into the small bushes behind him.

He unbuttoned his trouser belt and muttered softly, "Do you think I want to eat things from dead people? You guys eat so much food all day long, yet you won't give us an extra bite..."

While complaining, when his neck got cold, he could no longer speak.

"Hurry up. Mom, please." The corporal on the horse continued to curse.

"Even if there are no mice in the grassland here, there may be wolves. If wolves come, I will kill you weak chickens in minutes."

Xiliang language also has dialects, which Ren Ning could not quite understand.But he can probably guess what it means.

Calmly shaking the bushes around him, he used soil to plug the blood hole in the soldier's neck, and he slipped to the next target.

The more prairie people are, the more they are afraid of wolves.

When the corporal leader said this, the other three were frightened and followed closely.They walked and looked around, looking like the wind and cranes were barking, and the grass and trees were all soldiers.

Ren Ning rolled his eyes.

In this way, there is no chance for him to catch fish.

Whoa!
Not far ahead, a few thorns suddenly trembled slightly.

Inconspicuous in this silent morning.

It's just that even Ren Ning, who was ambushing behind, could see clearly, not to mention the four nervous Xiliang people in front?
"Scout Yunchui?" Someone's voice was trembling.

In the past two days, the little soldiers of the great eastern country taught them a life and death lesson, which was absolutely cruel.

The corporal cheered up, and subconsciously picked up the whistle hanging around his neck.

"It could also be a wolf, or a hare." Someone added weakly.

In the same two days, they finally understood one thing.

The Yunchui people are much more terrifying than the wolves on the grassland.

The corporal hesitated, and put down his whistle.

He made a outflanking gesture.

The three little soldiers looked at each other from a distance, and in unanimous agreement, they clenched their spears, enlarged the encirclement circle, and surrounded them in shock.

The corner of Ren Ning's mouth bent cruelly.

Behind a certain pile of thorns, he silently killed another with a short knife.

Two!
Ren Ning looked at the twitching corpses at his feet with a blank face, counting silently.

Then he picked up the spear as if nothing had happened, stood upright, and moved forward slowly like other soldiers.

"Mala. You're just dawdling, you haven't even had milk yet!"

The corporal on the horseback was angry, but he didn't yell any more.I just urged them viciously with my eyes from time to time, but I didn't find anything unusual.

Several people have been searching for most of the night, and they are still very sleepy now.

In addition, when the ghost killer Ren Ning took off his clothes, and everyone was ashamed, even the corporal didn't realize that he had changed his subordinate in an instant.

Soon, someone in front of him discovered Liu Goukuan's blood, and waved and shook his head to send the news.

Ren Ning couldn't understand it, but he didn't need to understand it either.Still dragging behind, half-dead, moved in that direction.

The head of the corps gritted his teeth angrily, and gave Ren Ning and the others a few vicious glances, but he just ignored the few subordinates who were fishing.

He urged to go immediately, bent down to check the blood on the ground.

After checking this, Ren Ning didn't hesitate to use a bow and arrow to kill a guy who was more paddling than him.
