After bidding farewell to Qin Zhuo and Qin Han, the cavalry set off, with Qin Lang leading the way.
As soon as they left the city gate, they saw Wu Qing waiting by the roadside with a dozen beast warriors and beast warriors.
Seeing the cavalry of Luo Jie and others, he stepped forward with a smile.
Qi Nanshan didn't waste any time and waved his hand: "Follow me."
Qin Lang clamped the horse's belly hard and said loudly: "Accelerate, accelerate!"
Guo Twelve rode a big black horse and galloped forward closely behind the cavalry.
The feeling of speeding like lightning was really great.
Two days later, the cavalry arrived at Hengguan.
Hengguan is very similar to Yerenguan.
It is located between two mountains.
After passing through a valley, you come to the foot of the city wall of Hengguan.
Hengguan is an important transportation pass and is guarded by the disciples of Beifu Sect.
These disciples have a rotation system.
Disciples who go to the grassland for training often pass by here, and there are also many caravans leaving and entering the customs.
Registration and records were required when entering and exiting Hengguan, but Luo Jie and others did not need to worry about this.
Qin Lang and a few men quickly completed the process, and a few hours later, the cavalry entered the grassland.
At first, the merchant's carriage team could still be seen, but soon Qin Lang led the horse team away from the normal business road and entered the vast grassland.
He chose the shorter path, but taking this path required a certain amount of force.
Guo Twelve discovered that the grassland here was a little different from the grassland in the previous life.
The wild grass grew very lush.
If a person stood on the grass, he could only show his upper body, and he could only show his head.
Unless he was riding a horse, he would not be able to see it.
No view from the front.
There are not only dense wild grasses on the grassland, but also patches of green woods.
However, because the area is relatively small, you can see the end at a glance while riding on horseback.
There are many unknown birds hovering in the blue sky.
Thousands of birds gather and disperse, and when they gather, they cover the sky and the sun.
It looks very spectacular.
There are many herbivores such as buffalo and antelope on the grassland, some of which Guo Twelve couldn't even name.
When their cavalry galloped past, countless birds and beasts were startled and fled in all directions.
He also saw some wild dogs.
It was late autumn at this time.
The wild dogs were extremely fat and each one was as strong as a calf.
Wild dogs are relatively fierce animals on the prairie, but they do not dare to provoke humans, especially horse teams.
When they encounter a horse team, their first thought is to run away.
Because for thousands of years, countless wild dogs that dared to attack humans have been killed.
Gradually, they developed a deep fear of humans.
When they saw humans and their cavalry, they instinctively stayed away.
After galloping all the way, Guo Twelve could no longer distinguish the north, south, east, and west, and it was easy to lose his way on the grassland.
Qi Nanshan urged his horse to gallop to Qin Lang and asked loudly: "No rest at noon."
Qin Lang said: "There is no time to rest, so we can only eat some dry food on the horse.
We must get to the ruins of Nanbao before evening.
It is safer there and we can relax and rest."
Qin Nanshan knew the horror of the night on the grassland.
He nodded and said, "You can arrange it."

Qin Lang said loudly: "At noon, we change horses and ride and rest for a while.
This time is convenient for everyone.
We also need to feed and drink the horses.
As for eating, we will take care of it right away.
We must get to Nanbao before dark."
The team of more than thirty people has hundreds of war horses.
Except for Guo Twelve's five children, the others are all experienced and powerful professionals.
Only such a team dares to take the route chosen by Qin Lang instead of the route taken by the caravan, because they have strong mobility and powerful force.
In the evening, South Fort finally appeared on the horizon.
"That's Nanbao" Guo Twelve looked curiously at the half-collapsed huge tower in the distance.
After a day of galloping, the horses were covered in sweat, snorting and breathing heavily.
Qin Lang said: "Everyone, be careful.
There are often stray teams staying in Nanbao.
We try not to conflict with them."
Guo Twelve asked: "Master, what is a wandering team?"
Luo Jie said: "Haha, the wandering team is composed of professionals who have no home.
They are a group of people who are wallowing on the line of life and death.
They are the best at killing and ignore death.
They are also the ones who die the fastest.
Those who can survive will not be able to survive.
If they are not masters, they can even leapfrog and challenge high-level professionals."
Guo Twelve broke into a cold sweat after hearing this and said: "Why are you so powerful?"
Qi Nanshan said: "If you are killed all day long, you will become so powerful.
The prerequisite is that you can survive."
Guo Twelve shook his head and said: "I don't want to die.
Well, where did these people come from?"
Luo Jie said: "The sources are more complicated.
Some are wandering talisman warriors who have lost their masters, some are spellcasters who have lost their partners, and more are professionals expelled by their families and sects.
Some are for The number of sect disciples who come out specifically to improve their martial arts is very complicated.
In the wandering team, everyone will not ask each other about their origins. " Guo Twelve asked: "Are there many such teams?"
Luo Jie said: "There are many, very many, not only on the grassland, but also in the extreme northern wilderness outside our Beifu Gate.
They believe in strength first and killing first.
They often draw swords against each other when they disagree.
It’s very common, haha, but they generally don’t bully people casually.
As long as you don’t mess with them, it’s not a big problem, but there are also lunatics among them, the kind of lunatics who just draw their swords and chop at them if they don’t like them.”
Qi Nanshan smiled and said: "That kind of lunatic usually doesn't live long, because most wandering professionals are not willing to form a team with such a lunatic.
It's too unsafe."
Guo Twelve said: "Aren't they not afraid of death?"
Luo Jie smiled and said: "Not being afraid of death does not mean that you are willing to seek death.
With such a lunatic in the team, everyone's safety cannot be guaranteed."
Guo Twelve asked: "In Nanbao, will we encounter such a team?"
Qi Nanshan said: "It's 100% possible to encounter it.
This is the first stop to enter the grassland and the last stop to return from the grassland, so it is a very lively place."
Qin Lang said: "There is a special area in South Fort for the wandering squad.
Haha, Twelve Young Masters.

As long as you don't offend them, there will be no problem.
Moreover, the wandering squad often has some weird items for sale.
They Just like us, we also need talisman money to support the team’s consumption.”
Soon, Nanbao was in sight.
This is an abandoned castle, covering a large area.
Although most of the walls have collapsed, it is a good resting spot on the grassland.
There are more than a dozen wells in the castle, but only about five of them can be used.
After entering the castle, I saw several fires with some people surrounding them.
Qin Lang led everyone to a well and said, "I'll rest here today, old man.
I'll make a fire to cook."
Luo Jie smiled and said: "You are responsible for lighting the fire.
Just twelve of them can cook."
He was already used to the food cooked by Guo Twelve and others, and it tasted much better than boiled meat in plain water.
Guo Twelve nodded and said: "Let's have barbecue today.
Uncle Luo, you took people to hunt three bison and came back.
When I came in, I saw a herd of bison in the southwest.
Hurry up, it's going to be dark."
Luo Zhan said hello and rode out of the castle with a few talisman masters.
Qin Lang called his men to go to the grove outside to cut down trees.
It was already late autumn, and there were many yellowing weeds and trees.
Many of them would be shipped back soon.
Guo Twelve set up dead trees and weeds and raised a fire.
Before it got completely dark, Luo Zhan and others came back dragging four fat bison.
Everyone started skinning and disemboweling them together.
Guo Twelve set up a large copper pot and used beef bones to make soup.
He also took out a special barbecue stand, propped up the three bison, and started making barbecue.
This is definitely physical work.
Guo Twelve is in charge of the command.
He has a group of strong men under him and doesn't care about the weight of the bison.
After half an hour of roasting, a strong meat aroma filled the air.
From time to time, people peeked over here, and they were all people attracted by the smell of meat.
Guo Twelve first arranged food for everyone, and then brought his four companions to the side.
He took out a rectangular grill, which was made based on the memory of his previous life, took out a pile of burned charcoal, and took out a large handful of copper sticks, and said: "Here, there is another bison here, let's make barbecue ourselves."
Eat on skewers.”
Chen Hong made the fire, others skewered the meat, and Guo Twelve was responsible for the skewers.
He took out his secret condiments and started grilling beef skewers with great interest.
This is his first time making kebabs in this world.
Huo Bao only took one bite and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Hey, it's delicious.
Ouch, it's so delicious."
Chen Bing took the time to grab a barbecue skewer and took a bite.
His eyes widened immediately and he couldn't care less about talking anymore as he kept eating.
When Luo Jie saw Guo Twelve and four of his friends running to the side to eat, he knew they were up to something.
When the smell of kebabs wafted over, he couldn't help but sneak over quietly.
Qi Nanshan was responsible for Luo Jie's safety.
Of course he knew about the old man's actions and followed him quietly.

"Twelve, what else is delicious?"
Guo Twelve smiled and handed over a few skewers of grilled meat.
As soon as Luo Jie took it, a big hand stretched out from beside him, grabbed two of them, and said, "Let me try Twelve's craftsmanship."
The meat skewers were very big. , each piece of meat was the size of a fist, Qi Nanshan bit off a piece, tasted it for a moment, and praised: "Twelve, you are so delicious."
Luo Jie was surprised when he took a bite.
The single-grilled meat skewers were different from the roasted whole beef.
They tasted more delicious and the meat was more tender.
Almost as soon as he grilled a few skewers, a few were snatched away.
Guo Twelve couldn't eat them at all.
He shouted helplessly: "Hey, leave a few skewers for me."
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Just as Guo Twelve had grilled more than a dozen skewers, they were immediately snatched away by several hands.
Guo Twelve suddenly looked up and saw a sloppy big man holding two barbecue skewers in his hands.
He couldn't help but be surprised and said: "Who are you?"
The man ignored it at all and took a bite of a piece of barbecue.
He swallowed it in several mouthfuls and then his eyes widened.
He had probably never tasted such delicious food.
After eating two skewers of barbecue in a hurry, he looked at Guo Twelve eagerly.
Guo Twelve himself didn't know what was going on, so he handed over the two skewers of barbecued meat he had just grilled
