Chapter 1316 The bark was stripped off
Mo Zixiu knew that there were still many things waiting for his junior sister to do.
Although he was reluctant to leave his junior sister, he couldn't leave her here.
"Junior sister, when will the rain stop? If it doesn't stop, it will be hard to kill the bugs in the water."
"The Rain God, Thunder God, and Lightning Goddess are all missing. Once we find them, the rain will stop."
"Ah?" Mo Zixiu opened his mouth in surprise.
Even gods can be lost, who dares to hijack gods?
But this was no longer something he could ask about, and it would be useless even if he asked.
"Once I have dealt with the problems with the bugs and the victims, I will go find the Rain God and the others. Don't worry, big brother, it won't take long." Xiao Yanbao said.
At the same time, this sentence is also to cheer myself up.
They will definitely have a tough battle to fight if they go to find the Rain God.
People in heaven also want to help.
This time she is not asking for help from heaven, but she is doing heaven a favor.
After saying this, Xiao Yanbao took out another stack of talismans and handed them to the eldest senior brother.
Mo Zixiu took the talisman and gave some instructions to his junior sister.
Xiao Yanbao agreed with a smile and left the military camp.
Many soldiers came to see him off when they knew that Xiao Yanbao was leaving.
I really don’t want to part with little Yanbao.
This time, their lives were saved by the little princess again.
"Little princess, when you have nothing to do, come and see me often..."
But before everyone could finish their words, little Yanbao had disappeared.
Xiao Yanbao did not go directly to other border checkpoints for inspection, but flew along the river first, sprinkling medicine powder into the river as he flew.
This time is not enough to kill all the insects. After the rain stops, you will need to spread the powder again.
Xiao Yanbao originally wanted to ask his senior brother to send someone to spread medicine powder in the river, but after thinking about it, he felt that her speed was faster.
She also has spirit pets to help her.
Little Yanbao followed the river to the next pass - Pingkou Pass.
This pass is not as big as Fengjia Pass, and the garrison there is not as large as that of Fengjia Pass.
Pingkou Pass is in a dangerous position, with steep mountains on both sides.
The road in the middle is winding and is a natural battlefield.
Little Yanbao looked far above Pingkou Pass and found that the bark of the trees on the mountain had been stripped off.
Xiao Yanbao was a little surprised.
Ever since she returned to the palace, her biggest concern has been the food and salary issues for the soldiers at the border, and she has never let any of the garrisons at any of the borders lack food and fodder.
How come it even eats the bark?
No urgent reports were received regarding the shortage of food and fodder at the border.
When little Yan Bao arrived at the military camp, he found that the soldiers at the border were staggering, pale and thin, with no light in their eyes.
Xiao Yanbao had never been to this Pingkou Pass before.
So the soldiers at Pingkou Pass did not recognize Xiao Yanbao.
Although the soldiers all knew that Lan Kingdom had an amazing little princess, they did not dare to recognize a little baby who suddenly appeared as the little princess.
A leader of the soldiers pulled himself together and asked, "Little kid, which refugee family are you from?"
This little baby is different from other babies. It is fair and clean, and doesn’t look hungry at all.
Everyone is so hungry, but this little kid is not hungry at all, which means that his family loves him and has surplus food.
"Where are your border generals?" asked Xiao Yanbao.
Xiao Yanbao's words stunned the soldier leader.
Is this a question a kid of this age should be asking?
How come this little kid isn't afraid of people at all?
Moreover, he felt a little afraid of this momentum.
"Little kid, who are you? Just tell me if you have anything to say. Our generals are very busy."
"I'm Yan Bao, and I want to talk to your general."
As soon as Xiao Yanbao gave his name, the soldier leader's eyes widened immediately, "Who did you say you are? Say it again?"
Little Yanbao patiently repeated, "I said my name is Yanbao."
"You...you...are you really the little princess?"
"Well, it's me."
Xiao Yanbao felt that, apart from himself, there was no other child so bold as to run around everywhere at this time.
The bark of the trees here has been stripped off. If they see such a fair and clean child like mine, I'm afraid they will be caught and eaten.
When the soldier leader heard Xiao Yanbao's words, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Then he shouted loudly: "The little princess is here, the little princess is here."
The soldier leader's shout was like thunder, shaking the soldiers who had already lost their energy and spirit.
All eyes turned to Xiao Yanbao.
Then, throughout the entire Pingkou Pass, there were shouts of, "The little princess is here, the little princess is here!"
It spread throughout the entire Pingkou Pass.
The Pingkou Pass, which had lost its vitality, suddenly began to boil.
The crowd rushed towards Xiao Yanbao.
Of course, the generals at Pingkou Pass also heard the news and rushed over.
If the little princess really came, then these soldiers and civilians would be saved.
He always firmly believed that the court and the little princess would not ignore them.
Although he, the garrison commander, has no relationship with the little princess, unlike the garrison commander of Fengjia Pass who is the little princess's senior brother, and the garrison commander of Yushao who is the little princess's grandfather.
Although they have no background, they are all soldiers and people of Lan Kingdom.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, the general is coming." a soldier shouted at the top of his voice.
Xiao Yanbao saw an old man with gray beard, thin body, but vigorous spirit, walking towards him from the end of the road.
Liu Qi had never seen little Yanbao, but when he saw little Yanbao's appearance, he could tell that he was not an ordinary child.
Children from ordinary families don’t have this kind of talent.
In addition, the area within hundreds of miles of Pingkou Pass was hit by floods. How could anyone have enough to eat? Such young children would have starved to death or become skin and bones.
Therefore, Liu Qi did not doubt Xiao Yanbao's identity. When he saw Xiao Yanbao, he bowed and said, "I am here to see the little princess."
Because Liu Qi was wearing armor, he did not perform the kneeling ceremony.
Little Yanbao raised his little hand and asked, "Are you the commander here?"
"My dear little princess, I am Liu Qi, the commander-in-chief of Pingkou Pass."
"General Liu, has the food supply at Pingkou Pass been cut off? Why have the barks of the trees been stripped off? Why hasn't the court received any reports about the food supply cut at Pingkou Pass?"
Liu Qi sighed softly, "If there is no flood, the food at the border will be enough to last for two or three months, and there will be no food shortage."
"Was the food washed away by the flood?" asked Xiao Yanbao.
Liu Qi shook his head and said, "No, Pingkou Pass has a special terrain. No matter how big the flood is, it won't wash away the food. The people around here have fled here. I can't watch them starve to death, so I distributed the food to them. I know the court and the little princess will definitely come and will not ignore us."
