Chapter 184: More Confused About Ye Wuwei's Origin
Early the next morning, Qi Wushuang and his companions left Yingdu.
Even if the two thousand black-armored soldiers marched very fast, it would still take twelve or thirteen days to return to Chamdo.
Of course, if it were just Qi Wushuang and Ye Wuwei, and they changed horses along the way and traveled non-stop, the time could be reduced by more than half.
During the break that day, Ye Wuwei sighed:
"If only there were trains, planes, or even cars, we wouldn't have to travel so many days."
Qi Wushuang was puzzled: "What are trains, planes, and cars?"
“It’s a means of transportation.
If you take a plane, it only takes two hours to get from Yingdu to Chamdo.
If you take the train, it will take four or five hours at the fastest and eight or nine hours at the slowest.
If you drive, you can get there in a day."
Ye Wuwei was so emotional that he even said "hours".
Fortunately, Qi Wushuang and Ye Wuwei had been together for a long time and knew that an hour was half an hour.
"So fast?"
"Ah."
"Can it be made?"
"What are you thinking? It's a fantasy."
"Then how do you know this?"
Ye Wuwei was too lazy to pay attention to Qi Wushuang.
After spending a long time with Ye Wuwei, Qi Wushuang became even more confused about Ye Wuwei's origins.
Whether it was the previous iron or glass, at least Qi Wushuang knew that there were similar things in Borneo. Qi Wushuang could also say that Ye Wuwei knew that these were taught to him by outsiders.
However, Qi Wushuang had never heard of "trains, planes, and cars", but Ye Wuwei knew them very well.
If Ye Wuwei had only heard it from others, he would not have been so familiar with it.
So where is he from?
……
After traveling for four days, they passed a place called "Shuanghulu Valley".
When arriving in front of the valley, Ye Wuwei noticed that Qi Wushuang and the others had become cautious.
Ye Wuwei asked Qi Wushuang: "Isn't this place inappropriate?"
Qi Wushuang tilted his head to answer Ye Wuwei's words:
“It is named Shuanghulu Valley because the terrain of this section is like two gourds with their bottoms connected in the middle and two openings standing at the entrance and exit of the valley.
The entrance to the valley is small and narrow, barely wide enough for a narrow carriage to pass through."
Ye Wuwei estimated the entrance: it was about 1.6 meters wide.
In modern times, even a small car would be difficult to drive in.
Ye Wuwei understood what Qi Wushuang meant:
If the enemy has set an ambush in the valley in advance, we will kill them one by one when we go in.
Qi Wu dismounted and put his ear to the ground to listen.
Ye Wuwei followed suit, dismounted, and put his ear to the ground to listen.
Lying on the ground and listening to sounds was a basic part of Ye Wuwei's professional training in his previous life.
Qi Wushuang also dismounted and squatted beside Ye Wuwei: "What did you hear?"
"I didn't hear anything."
Qi Wushuang thought Ye Wuwei was incapable of lying on the ground and listening, so he said, "Do you want to learn? I'll teach you."
Ye Wuwei recalled a scene in a movie from his previous life where one could tell how many people were there by lying on the ground and listening to the sound of horse hooves, but he didn't know if it was true or not?
Ye Wuwei had received professional training and could hear the movements, but he only had a general idea of what they were.
such as:
Ye Wuwei could hear whether there were horse hooves sounds, but he couldn't judge how many people were there based on the sounds.
Thinking of this, Ye Wuwei asked Qi Wushuang:
"If there were the sound of horse hooves, could you tell how many people there were by the sound of the hooves?"
“I can do it, Qi Wu can do it, but very few people can do it.
People like Qi Cheng can’t do it.”
"How can that be done?"
"The prerequisite is to have good inner strength or hearing, plus professional training."
Ye Wuwei hadn't practiced internal strength with Qi Wushuang for long, so he couldn't even be considered half-baked. However, his hearing was okay, and he had received professional training in his previous life, so he didn't know if he could do it.
Just then, Qi Wu stood up.
"Your Majesty, there is no ambush."
Since there is no ambush, everyone should leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.
Ye Wuwei said to Qi Wushuang, "If there's a chance, can you teach me how to listen to the sound of horse hooves?"
"it is good."
(The next chapter returns to Chamdo.
Listening to the sound of horse hooves to tell how many people there are is a foreshadowing and will be useful later.)
