Chapter 9 The road is facing the sky, I go to the other side

The official road they walked before was the way to Shandong Prefecture, and now they should be at a distance of 90 degrees from the official road, and Iron Niu didn’t know where it would lead.

Yang Bo Si stood up after thinking for a long time, and tugged his trouser belt hard. Through the torn clothes, he could see his skinny body. The knife wounds on his back were still twitching. Those who were determined to travel through time should really see his current miserable situation.

"Iron Niu, let's go? We won't walk the road anymore, let's go there." Yang Bo twisted a stick and tried the length in his hand. The direction the stick pointed was a continuous mountain...

Yang Bo finally made up his mind.

"Well, let's go!" To Yang Bo's surprise, Tieniu stood up without any objection.

"Tieniu, why don't you ask where we are?" Yang Bo looked at Tieniu with some confusion and carefully learned to find a crutch himself, and did not forget to try the length.

Tie Niu touched his head silly and smiled silly: "Then... where are we going?"

"Enter the mountain!" Yang Bo finally realized that he, the Tie Niu brother, is not a person who likes to dig into the bottom line.

Yang Bo turned around and said firmly

"What are you going into the mountain?" Tie Niu followed closely behind Yang Bo.

"Tieniu, do you think we can get to Gunzhou Prefecture like this?" Yang Bo asked patiently.

"Then I really don't know..." Tie Niu shook his head. He had half a piece of bread to fill his stomach today, but it's hard to say about Brother Yang's situation. After all, he was injured. Entering the mountain will definitely be more difficult than walking on the road.

"Do you know how long it will take for us to enter Shandong territory?" Yang Bo asked again

"It should be soon?" Tieniu replied hesitantly. He was not sure why Yang Bo had to abandon the official road and not leave. Gunzhou Prefecture still had a lot of relief waiting for them?

"Okay, think about it again. Now that Henan is suffering from disaster, so many people are flocking to Shandong. Can you get relief?" Yang Bo saw that Tieniu didn't understand, so he changed his words: "That is to say, even if we go to Shandong, what if those officials refuse to provide relief?"

"No, right? We are almost starving to death." Tie Niu was startled. "The officials in our place said that as long as we arrive at Gunzhou Prefecture, we will have a way out. They also said that the emperor had stored rice and grain in Gunzhou Prefecture, and he could get it as long as he arrived..."

"Hmph" Yang Bo sneered. It is not surprising that these officials hope that the people under their jurisdiction would die and would die in other places. It would be fine if they were unwilling to take responsibility, but such naked deception is really unforgivable. Looking at Tie Niu's surprised look, I am afraid that he really believes that there is still relief waiting for him when he is ahead?

"What a kind person!" Yang Bo sighed in his heart: "You have been abandoned by the so-called court, but you don't know yet, right?"

"Brother, what should we do?" Hearing that there was no food relief, Tieniu began to panic

"Enter the mountain, go find some way to live..." Yang Bo pointed ahead, and in the blurry outline in the distance, several towering mountains stood there.

"Also, there are too many soldiers and bandits along the way, and our young and strong heads are worth a lot of money," Yang Bo added.

"Why are our brains more valuable?" Tieniu couldn't understand even more

"That's not simple?" Yang Bo smiled: "Whether you are pretending to be a Tartar or a bandit to receive rewards, you can't take the heads of older or women or children, right?"

"Well, this is true... But brother, there is nothing in the mountains?" Tie Niu was obviously a little embarrassed

"Yes, there is nothing on the mountain on the roadside, but what about the back? What about those mountains? Diversion, do you know what diversion is? Anyway? We can't follow them in a hurry to try our luck." Yang Bo explained for a long time, but it seemed that Tie Niu still didn't understand.

"Brother means that it is better to rely on yourself instead of placing hope on those corrupt officials!" Yang Bo saw that Tie Niu was not enlightened, so he stopped talking. Since he had already arrived here and encountered such a situation, complaining and self-pity were obviously useless.

His only goal now is to solve the survival crisis first! If the food is gone, maybe he can survive. If his mind is gone, he can't take it back. Yang Bo no longer wants to take risks by luck.

"Tieniu doesn't understand these things, but Iron Niu will go wherever my brother goes." Tieniu is obviously not a serious person.

"Good brother!" Yang Bo reached out and patted Tienniu on the shoulder. "Let's go, Tienniu, let's go into the mountains and try our luck!"

Soon, Yang Bo began to regret making this rash decision.

In two days, they walked for two days!

The original plan to find some food in the mountains was obviously vain. When she was so hungry that Yang Bo even plucked a handful of grass roots and swallowed it. If Tien Niu hadn't tried his best to support him, he would have fallen down long ago.

But when they looked at the towering and desolate mountains in the distance, the two of them felt a surge of despair. They no longer had the strength to climb over these high mountains.

"Brother Tieniu, put me down..." Yang Bo gently patted Tieniu's shoulder.

"Tieniu will definitely be able to carry his brother over. After passing this mountain, he will be able to find some food. Brother must support him." Tieniu said stubbornly while panting.

Yang Bo's eyes were a little red, "Good brother, go there first, take a rest?"

Hearing Yang Bo's tone calm, Tie Niu felt relieved. Since yesterday, Yang Bo has been in a state of madness from time to time, and said something he couldn't understand, which made Tie Niu very scared.

Under a yellow tree, the iron niu sat next to Yang Bo. Looking at Yang Bo's blind eyes looking into the distance, he had something to ask but didn't know how to say it.

"Brother Tie Niu..."

"Well, brother?"

"I'm afraid I can't get out..." Yang Bo was silent for a while and said softly.

Tie Niu was startled. He was about to speak but was interrupted by Yang Bo.

Looking at Yang Bo's concerned eyes, Tien Niu suddenly turned red and choked: "No, we'll go out soon. Just climb over this mountain... Woo woo."

Yang Bo smiled miserably. No matter how much experience he had in such extreme environments, he was useless. He hadn't eaten anything in the past two days, and even hadn't even had a few sips of water in such hot weather. Although Yang Bo used red-hot wood charcoal to disinfect the suppurated wound on his back, he had been lingering and not closing his mouth for the past two days. Not to mention that his body was extremely weak, even if he was a man who was beaten here, he could not bear it.

"Tieniu, do you believe what I said?" Yang Bo smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and gently touched Tieniu's head.

"Faith!" Tie Niu cried even harder

"That's good, Tien Niu, do you know? The more you go forward in the past two days, the grass on the ground is getting more and more lush..."

Tieniu stared at Yang Bo with his eyes, he didn't understand what Yang Bo was saying.

"Tieniu, as long as you continue to move forward, you will definitely find a way out! But my brother is probably..."
