The next day, Ye Bai took Afeng and his little friend Zhao Yan to catch up with Xie Linlang.

They didn't have much rest all the way because they were in a hurry to save people. Ten days later, they climbed over the mountains, walked through the secret passage of darts, passed through the border defense, and came to Broken Leaf City.

Marsh country is a hilly country with dense forests, alpine swamps, and few flat areas.

Xie Linlang had an obvious sense of foreignness when he arrived in the land of Marsh Country. Unlike Ze Country, Ze Country pursued the Central Plains culture. Apart from his excessive preference for luxury, he was similar to Da Qin.

But Marsh Country is different. All the people in Marsh Country believe in the goddess of the forest and admire the wind of nature. In addition, most of them have to hunt, so they wear simple hunting outfits, and the decorations are mainly gorgeous feathers, gold and silver. And tulle, flowers, etc.

Fortunately, although they have their own language, most people who live in the city can speak Mandarin.

As soon as they saw Xie Linlang and others, they knew they were outsiders, but they were not surprised, because these outsiders were generally generous and friendly to them.

After Xie Linlang changed the clothes of Marsh Kingdom in Broken Leaf City, he led everyone on and set off.

Their destination is a place called Dingxiang City, where their former dart boarders lived. Not far from Dingxiang City is the snake bone forest.

Xie Linlang looked at the map on the carriage and then calculated the distance, but Afeng and the others were very nervous.

The closer they get, the more worried they are. Brother Gu has been missing for almost 20 days, and they don’t know how they are now...

Seeing this, Xie Linlang asked in order to divert their attention.

"Do you remember the route to the mountain?"

Afeng came back to his senses and nodded vigorously, "Remember, Brother Gu specially trained us to remember the way and observe people."

Xie Linlang raised her eyebrows and asked, "What are the characteristics of that person who lifts the dart?"

Afeng frowned and thought for a while, "In return, the man is a man, but he is not tall and looks very thin. He looks ordinary and has no characteristics, except that there is a red mole behind his ear."

Xie Linlang asked with a smile when he saw that he had such a good memory.

"How old are you?"

Afeng said quickly, "It's fourteen."

Zhao Yan next to him whispered, "I am fifteen."

Xie Linlang nodded, "Then how old are you, and you two will call me to thank you brother directly instead of calling me an adult."

The two teenagers nodded quickly, and a few days later, the carriage came to Lilac City.

If you go further, the carriage is not applicable, so they are divided into two groups.

Xie Linlang took people to find the dartboarder, and Xunfeng used a carriage to exchange mules.

When Xie Linlang and the others passed by, the people in the surrounding marsh country would look at them intentionally or unintentionally.

It wasn't that they weren't from Marsh Country, but Xie Linlang was a little too pretty after changing into Marsh Country's clothes.

Because it was still cold, Xie Linlang was dressed in a large cloak of white feathers, and her long hair did not have a crown, but like the men here, half tied up, fixed with a lake-blue bird feather, half braided In a small braid, the long hangs behind him.

In addition, she wears delicately woven silver threads on her forehead, and she wears a bracelet with gems, which makes her exquisite appearance even more beautiful.

When the winter sun fell on her through the gaps in the trees, people seemed to have seen the legendary forest elf, and naturally couldn't help but look again.

The reason why Xie Linlang didn't change his face was because her indistinguishable appearance was very popular in the local area.

Because each of the seven children conceived by the legendary forest goddess is incomparable, just like a heavenly cast, the men and women of Marsh Country all pursue this exquisite beauty.

He also thinks that the better-looking person is, the closer the lineage is to the goddess. Naturally, the serpent-spirit saint is the most beautiful woman in the country's opinion.

Relying on the superiority of appearance, Xie Linlang was not suspected of being a nobleman in the Marsh country.

And no matter what she wanted to know, someone was rushing to answer her, so she quickly understood the current situation in the country.

After the previous defeat, the royal family of Marsh State was completely silent. After that, the emperor seemed to be seriously ill, and then let his eldest prince handle political affairs, and he no longer showed up.

Xie Linlang heard the words, thoughtful, at this moment, Afeng pulled her sleeves and pointed to the stilted corridor on the hillside not far away.

"It's there."

The architectural style of Marsh Country is very different from that of Daqin, because it is humid, most of the people living here are stilted buildings or low wooden buildings.

They did not build roads either. The road that runs through the entire Lilac City is a road that people stepped on. On both sides of the road are meadows and early spring flowers. Not far away are forests and trees. The entire town is perfectly integrated with nature. There is a breath of spring.

And the building Afeng pointed to was the place where the person who received the dart last time lived. On the hillside, there was a small piece of bamboo planted around it.

Xie Linlang quickly took them over to visit, but after a long time, no one answered.

At this time, the woman who was drying the dried fruit saw it and said actively.

"This distinguished guest, the people who live here have moved away. It is now empty and no one lives."

Xie Linlang raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard the words, "Do you know where he moved?"

The woman thought for a while and said, "Someone saw him take someone to carry a heavy object to the snake bone forest, and then never came out."

Xie Linlang nodded and thanked, but still wanted to go in and take a look. Even though the person had left, there might be evidence left.

Just as she was about to break in, a group of people rushed into the city on horseback, shouting as they ran.

"The sixteen princes rebelled, stabbed the saint, and defected to Luoyecheng! Everyone listened. Once you find the prince's trace, immediately report to the city secretary. If you dare to harbor criminals, you will sit down!"

They shouted over and over again, gradually moving from the east to the west.

Xie Linlang was still thinking, what's the point of shouting like this? If you don't post bounty or something, who will provide clues?

Unexpectedly, after they ran past, the local people all whispered, and some even said in annoyance.

"The prince has a snake totem on his wrist, we must pay more attention to it, and don't let this defector get away with it!"

"God, he dare to hurt the saint? He will be condemned by the goddess!"

...

These kinds of voices came over one after another, Xie Linlang was a little confused, but fortunately, Afeng knew a little bit and explained in her ear.

"The people in Marsh Country are very united and very xenophobic. This is why I suggested before that we must have a Marsh Country status, otherwise once they are found to be foreigners, the people here will not tell us anything. ."

"And that saint is also very prestigious in Marsh country, because all the people in Marsh country believe in the forest goddess, and the saint as a representative of the goddess is naturally admired by all the people in Marsh country. They said that the defected prince stabbed the saint. It will definitely offend the public."

Xie Linlang suddenly realized, at the same time, he was a little uncertain.

The sixteenth prince? Could it be Baishui Qiye?
