MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince-Chapter 510 Save three people and make a comeback
Chapter 510: Saving three people turned a corner
People would inevitably have difficulty eating outside, so the king ordered everyone who went out on a mission to carry not only the necessary medicine for wounds, but also a small water bag and dry food to prepare for emergencies.
In order to avoid being overweight, there won’t be a lot of dry food, just one or two meals.
It was Du Qian's decision that allowed the three people to survive while trapped underground.
Du Wan blurted out and asked: "Do you know where my eldest brother was when the earthquake happened?"
"Prince?" Chief Huo was stunned, "This subordinate was sent by the prince to the Yamen early that morning to check the accounts."
Thinking of some bad possibility, his voice started to tremble, "Is the county, the county prince...?"
“My eldest brother just disappeared!”
Compared with the possibility of death, as long as he didn't see a body for a day, Du Wan would rather believe that he was just missing.
Whether she was deceiving herself or others, she couldn't accept the result anyway.
Du Wan always thought that she was outside this world, but in fact, she had already been emotionally involved without even realizing it.
Family members are the most important, followed by love.
This is not fair to Pei Hao, but it is very realistic. If breaking up with Pei Hao could save Du Qian's life, Du Wan would agree without hesitation. She always remembered the handsome man who came majestically on a tall horse when she faced danger in the primitive mountains, and the big brother who always called her sister affectionately...
Du Siqi saw that the princess's mood was not right, and quickly said: "Mr. Huo, do you know the whereabouts of the princess?"
"Before I went out, the prince was still at the house." Chief Huo thought about what happened that day and regretted not asking about the prince's itinerary that day.
The task was assigned the day before, so he went out early.
When Du Wan heard this answer, she felt as if the blood in her body had suddenly gone cold.
The people buried in that mansion are long gone...
A very weak voice next to him, dry and hoarse, broke the deathly silence, "The prince may have gone to Niujia Village that day..."
“What did you say?” Du Wan turned around suddenly.
No matter how weak the man's voice was, she still heard it.
The man lying aside was one of the two rescued guards. He woke up at some point.
The guard added weakly: "It's Niujia Village five miles away."
"How did you know?"
Before Du Wan said anything, Du Siqi asked in surprise.
The guard felt a little difficult, his throat was burning and uncomfortable, but he still weakly told what he knew, "Subordinate... I saw it outside the Yamen that afternoon."
To protect Mr. Huo, you don’t have to keep an eye on him all the time, and you also have to work shifts.
He happened to be resting at that time, so he went to the street outside the Yamen to buy a bun. He happened to meet the county prince and his people passing by, including his brother. He also gave the bun he bought to his brother and chatted casually. The Zhijun Wang and the others decided to go to Niujia Village at the last minute, but they received news that there was a problem with the disaster relief there.
The guard did not find out what happened specifically.
At that time, we just stopped for a while and couldn’t talk for a few words.
Among the brothers, he rode last. He was afraid that he would be worried if he didn't return to the city at night, so he stopped to say goodbye.
Du Wan's heart was pounding when she heard the news.
Taking out the map in his arms, he found the location of Niujia Village, and then found the right direction. He immediately walked outside the temporary tent. Du Siqi quickly followed, "Princess, are you going to Niujia Village? Do you want to?" Are you going to prepare your horses?"
"I'll go first, and you will follow." After Du Wan said this, the person disappeared like a wisp of smoke. Du Siqi was slightly startled.
Is the princess already so strong?
Thinking that she could easily find the living people under the ruins before, she suddenly understood. But what is happening now must be reported to Du Shiyi as soon as possible, and the rescuers must rush to Niujia Village.
After hearing this, Du Shiyi frowned, "Siqi, you should let the princess come with us."
"Why?" Du Siqi was puzzled, "According to the speed of the princess, we can reach Niujia Village faster than us."
"The geographical location of Niujia Village is a bit special. It is in the mountains. Unfamiliar people can easily get lost when entering the mountains." Du Shiyi has learned about it from others, so it is best to have an acquaintance take him with him.
Du Siqi asked, "Why did the prince suddenly go there?"
“…” Du Shiyi couldn’t answer.
Next, a doctor with superb medical skills quickly took over the problem of Huo and the other three.
Du Shiyi dispatched the elites of the Du family and two local people, a group of nearly three hundred people, and hurriedly set off towards Niujia Village on horseback.
There is not much snow in the county town. It was cleaned every day before the earthquake. It is different outside the city. It is covered with snow. Even the mountains in the distance are completely white. There used to be snow on the road. When Du Qian came to provide disaster relief, he ordered people to clear the snow on the road every day.
It didn’t snow again after the earthquake, and the roads were clearly visible.
On the other side, Du Wan followed the map and came to the foot of a mountain.
At this time, she encountered a big problem. The trails on the map were covered with heavy snow.
Almost everyone living in the north knows that it is very dangerous to enter the mountains in winter. Not only will you encounter wild animals, but it is also easy to find the road or take the wrong path and fall into a ditch. Anyway, it is easy for a person to enter the mountains hastily. Don't have too many accidents.
Du Wan is not afraid of encountering wild animals, but she is worried about getting lost.
She has no experience in finding the right direction when entering the mountains in the vast white snow.
Du Wan took out the map and studied it again, ignoring the route instructions on the side.
That explanation was written by Prince Consort Du at that time because he was worried that she would get lost and not find Guangluo County, so he asked someone familiar to write it. The final destination is the county seat of Guangluo County. There is no indication at all on how to get to Niujia Village.
Du Wan is annoyed.
Before coming here, you should find someone to guide you.
After pondering the map for a while, she decided to go into the mountains.
According to the shape of the hills on the map, you can still find Niujia Village as long as you spend some time.
She kept an eye on her surroundings as she walked, hoping to find human footprints.
As long as someone comes in and out, it is not difficult to find traces. After walking for a long time, I found some animal footprints, but no human footprints.
Every step Du Wan took, the traces left on the snow were very shallow, unlike ordinary people's feet sinking into the snow. If she wanted to, she could even float on the snow, but before she found Niujia Village, she would try to save as much energy as possible.
After climbing to the top of the mountain, she took out the map and looked at it.
After thinking about it, I felt that it was not high enough, so I used Qinggong to fly to the top of a big tree.
The snowballs on the branches fell.
As the saying goes, if you stand high, you can see far, and she actually noticed smoke from cooking halfway up the mountain in the distance. This made her happy. The smoke from the kitchen meant that someone was living there. Niujia Village was the best, so she could ask a local to find out.
