Chapter 282: Halfway

"This little brother, don't look at this carriage is not big, but the materials are extremely particular, so it is very heavy, and we must use all our strength to catch two people. "Uncle Wang, the coachman, is an old man, but he doesn't seem to be an ordinary old man.

Through the hat that covered the rain, Lu Tao could see that Uncle Wang was missing an eye, a long scar was pulled along Uncle Wang's forehead to the bridge of his nose, and a piece of his nose was also cut off, revealing half of his nostrils, his pale hair was covered by the hat of the coat, but Uncle Wang's mouth and chin were covered by the same pale beard.

"What's wrong with you, little brother?"

Lu Tao woke up and quickly shook his head: "It's nothing...... Uncle Wang, you can rest first, and leave the carriage to me. ”

"But......" Uncle Wang's only remaining eyes showed a trace of incomprehension, and finally nodded: "Okay, then you try it first." ”

Lu Tao nodded, walked towards the back of the carriage, and looked at the wheels trapped in the mud pit, about half of the wheels were stuck in the mud, and the wheels were stuck in the mud, no wonder Uncle Wang's carriage couldn't get out of this mud pit.

The wheels on the other side were fine, and they didn't sink into any mud puddles, and the carriage stopped in place, high and low, looking a little lonely on the road that had been flooded by the rain.

Lu Tao grabbed the lower edge of the carriage with his hand, and with a little effort, he found that the carriage was indeed quite heavy as Uncle Wang said, as if the carriage was all made of metal.

However, this is not difficult for Lu Tao, although Lu Tao's strength is not enough to carry the carriage and run wildly, but it is definitely not a problem to lift the carriage.

Naturally, it was not difficult to get the wheels out of the mud pit, Lu Tao used a little strength, the carriage was lifted, and as soon as it was sent forward, the whole carriage came out of the mud pit.

"Awesome, little brother!" Uncle Wang's eyes widened, and he looked at Lu Tao's hands incredulously: "Hehehe, with your strength, no matter where you go, you have at least one job to do, if you practice martial arts......"

As if thinking of something, Uncle Wang stopped in the middle of his words, and then, he looked at the wheels of the carriage and sighed with some regret: "Although you got the carriage out, it's a pity that we still can't go, as I expected, the wheel is broken and needs to be repaired." ”

Lu Tao followed Uncle Wang's gaze and looked at the wheels, but he couldn't find anything wrong.

......

The rain stopped, but Lu Tao was trapped on the road.

The carriage broke down, according to Uncle Wang, it was the wheel hub that had a problem, and then, he handed over the task of taking care of their young lady to Lu Tao, and he didn't know where he went.

Of course, Liu Ruyan also made a contribution, Uncle Wang didn't want to hand over his young lady to a stranger who didn't know the details and leave like this, but he was persuaded by Liu Ruyan to change his mind, because Liu Ruyan said that she trusted Lu Tao and felt that he was a good person.

Lu Tao was issued two good guy cards in a row, and he is about to become a bad guy!

The clouds in the sky have not dispersed yet, it is already afternoon, according to the map in Lu Tao's hand, if you use a normal foot, you should have arrived at Xianfeng Mansion by now, but unfortunately they are still stuck in the middle of the middle from Wenyang Mansion to Xianfeng Mansion, and I don't know when Uncle Wang, who is looking for materials, will come back.

"Hey, Miss, you're hungry, do you have anything to eat?"

Xiao Tao lifted the curtain on the carriage, poked out his head combed into a ball, and stared at Lu Tao with a pair of not very friendly eyes.

Lu Tao shook his head, there was nothing extra in his backpack except for silver, a book, a few maps, and two newly bought clothes.

"Then what to do? There is no place to eat in this wilderness. Xiao Tao frowned in distress: "Why don't you bring a little dry food?"

"Forget it, little peach! endure it and it's over. ”

From behind the curtain, Liu Ruyan's voice came: "I'm not very hungry either, when Uncle Wang comes back, we will rush to Xianfeng Mansion, and we should be able to arrive before the evening." ”

"But miss, you haven't eaten a day! What if you're hungry?!"

"Shhhhhhhh

"What are you shhhh

"Peach, shut up!"

Of course Xiao Tao won't listen to Lu Tao's words, she always thought that it must be Lu Tao's fault that she was so unlucky today, if she didn't catch this person halfway, how could the carriage break down for no reason? But she had to listen to Miss's words, all her confidence came from Miss, after all, no matter what, she was just Miss's maid.

With a slight "hum", Xiao Tao closed her mouth.

Lu Tao listened to the sounds coming from the forest in the distance, and the chirps came and went, some like pheasants and some like some kind of birds, not far away.

"You wait here for a while, I'll go find food. Lu Tao determined the direction of the animal, whether it was a bird or something else, and turned back to the carriage where Liu Ruyan was.

"Be careful and come back early. Liu Ruyan said to Lu Tao before Xiao Tao wanted to say something: "If you can't find food, it's okay, I can hold back." ”

Lu Tao nodded, brushed aside the still wet bushes in front of him, and walked in the direction he had determined before.

......

In the forest where it has just rained, most of the animals hide in their nests, resisting the cold of the rain and possibly the pain of hunger.

The rain also washed away the smell of the air, and those hunters, who are known for their sense of smell, can only put away their pride, hide in the places where the rain does not touch, and paint their own smell around them, so as to have a temporary sense of security.

Lu Tao didn't see any of these hidden or hidden animals, and he followed the bright chirp and finally found his target.

It was pheasants that made the noise, but not one, but two.

Opposite them, there were two small boars, and although they didn't know why, they were now confronting the boars, which were much larger than them. The sound of the pheasant is more like some kind of intimidation, but it is not as threatening as the fangs of wild boars.

Lu Tao rubbed his chin, this is a big surprise, although the wild boar meat is not delicious, but it is better than nothing.

But how do you catch all the four walking proteins?

Hiding behind a tree and thinking for a while, Lu Tao's eyes lit up, why don't you try the illusion in that book.

According to the booklet he got from Fang Tianqi, illusion can affect more people than soul dementorship at one time, soul dementorship must look at the other party's eyes to be cast, unless there is any special ability, normal people can only look at one person's eyes at a time, and illusion does not need it, it does not rely on gaze, but divine sense.

The other parts of the booklet did not say it, Lu Tao directly followed the mantra and spiritual power operation method on the booklet, and operated the illusion.

This was the first time he had used this kind of spell, and just in case, Lu Tao also took out the token he had previously obtained from Hong Bingying from his pocket as a backhand - if the illusion failed, he would throw this hard token as a weapon.

If the token had a mind, it would be sad what had happened to it. Of course, if it weren't for the fact that there were really no stones or anything else of moderate size and weight that was hard and hard in the forest as weapons, Lu Tao would certainly not use the token.

The spiritual power followed Lu Tao's meridians, from one point to another, and then returned to calm, in Lu Tao's perception, his divine consciousness was divided into a part, like a big bird rushing towards the four animals in the confrontation, the invisible divine consciousness seemed to leave a lingering mist in the humid air, and then disappeared in an instant.

The separated consciousness fell, acting on the two pheasants and the two wild boars, and then the four animals seemed to be stunned for a moment, and began to look around.

The two boars roared in terror, ignoring their companions, and crashed forward, hitting the tree in front of them, and fainted without saying a word.

The other wild boar was also terrified, but it rushed straight in the direction of Lu Tao.

Lu Tao: "???"
