Remember [Pen โ Fun รท Pavilion in one second.], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
I stopped talking, because there was no way back, or I had to go back and kill Ayim's so-called relatives, and then take her out and hand her over to the boy named Abu.
But this won't work, so I thought for a while, can I let the old horse stop, don't go any further, so that in the middle of the way, stay up until dawn, and then return.
This method should work, so I pulled the reins, and said several times, this old horse just doesn't stop, I am dizzy, I grew up in the south, I have never seen a horse, except on TV, so I don't know how to drive a horse.
"Ayimu, can you stop the old horse, don't go any further!" I turned to look at Ayimu.
She shouted a few times, but the old horse didn't listen to her at all, and Ayimu said: "The old horse is an uncle's family, and he has been with his uncle all his life, and he understands what his uncle said to him before he set off, so he will definitely keep moving forward." โ
"I don't believe in evil anymore. As I spoke, I jumped out of the carriage, and then quickly stepped forward to grasp the reins, but the old horse suddenly chirped, and jumped up on both front feet, and I was so startled that I retreated again and again, and was almost trampled to death.
Ayimu screamed in fright and almost fell off the flatbed.
Then, with a whoosh, the old horse seemed to be frightened, and pulled Ayimu and galloped quickly in the direction of the holy mountain.
Damn, it was so fast, I didn't expect it to backfire!
I quickly picked up my speed, and as soon as I picked up my speed, I quickly caught up with the old horse, but when I saw that I could grab the old horse with my hand, it seemed like it would always be a little bit close.
I didn't dare to break it all out, now in the plateau, there is already a lack of oxygen, if it is like last time, if it is not good, it will be hung up.
So I gave up chasing it, but jumped up and got back on the tablet, holding the edge of the carriage with one hand and Ayimu with the other, and she almost fell off the carriage several times.
After the old horse galloped for more than half an hour, we went up a small mound, estimated to be less than a few tens of meters high, and then it stopped, and a huge tree in front of us was estimated to have a fight with the thousand-year-old locust tree in Suncuo Village.
It's just that the tree is now bare, and there are no leaves at all, but there are dried corpses hanging from the tree.
"This is the Holy Mountain?" I looked at Ayimu in surprise.
A frightened Ayimu nodded, the carriage had stopped, her shoulders shaking up and down, gasping for breath.
"This is also called a mountain, at most it can only be regarded as a small mound, and our Fujian mountain can be high. I looked up at the bodies hanging from them, and I said, "Why are there so many bodies hanging from this tree? Is this a burial?"
Ayimu shook his head and said, "These are the people who were executed, and they were all hanged alive. โ
I gasped, this is so cruel!
Whew!
There were bursts of wolf howls not far away, which were very infiltrating!
I looked at the trees, panicked, they were all corpses, and if they were down there, the wolves would definitely be attacked by the wolves at night.
A fire still had to be made, but everything was empty except for the big tree, and it was only grass, and it was estimated that it would take a long distance to find firewood.
I stared at the cart in front of me, and now the only way to do it was to chop it into firewood and burn it.
I picked up the Junsheng sword, and with a brush, I cut the rope, and I said to the old horse: "Old horse, you go, go back the way you came, don't be chased by the wolf." โ
Then the old horse fluttered twice, and really returned the same way, and galloped away not far away.
"Come down, we'll chop the cart into firewood and burn it, only fire can keep the wolves off. I said.
"Good. Ayimu got out of the car, pulled the quilt off, and curled up under the big tree.
Three times five divided by two, the cart became a pile of firewood, and in the blink of an eye, a fire was lit, and the surroundings of the big tree were also bright and warm.
Ayimu was draped in a quilt and leaned against the tree, staring at the fire in front of him.
As soon as the fire lit up, the corpses on the trees looked extremely hideous.
There are still a lot of rotten fruits around, and I picked one up and saw that it was a date.
It turned out that this was a jujube tree, but I didn't expect it to grow so big, how young it is.
There are many specialties in Xinjiang, such as Ruoqiang's jujubes, Hami's melons, Turpan's grapes, Hetian's jade, and lamb skewers, which are all famous.
I looked up at the hanging corpses, the corpses were all naturally dried, obviously there was nothing to eat on the tree, but there were also a lot of fallen skeletons scattered on the ground, which should have been rotten and broken.
At this moment, suddenly a dried corpse fell down with a swish, and with a crisp snap, the skull rolled to the edge of the fire.
"Ah......h
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, there's nothing to be afraid of, let alone your people. I comforted.
She calmed down a little, and then slowly left me, but this time she hugged me head-on, and there was such a faint fragrance, I went, ripples......
Her little face turned red as soon as she brushed it, and then quickly picked up the quilt and put it on her body again.
I took the stick and moved the skull away from her before she continued to crouch down to bake the fire.
"I don't think this is good, you better go to the tree, it's safer, the wolves will come in a while, I'll be easy to deal with alone, if you're on the side, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of it." "I looked at the tree, and then at Ayim.
"Good. Ayimu also looked up at it, and then said, "It's so high, I can't go up." โ
I thought about it, so I went to the bottom of the tree, then crouched down, patted me on the shoulder, and said, "Come, step on my shoulder." โ
"This?" Ayimu hesitated.
"There's nothing to hesitate about, quick, it's not good if the wolf comes in a while. I urged, a man can bend and stretch, it's nothing.
Then Ayimu stepped on my shoulder with one foot, and then stepped his right foot on his right shoulder, holding the trunk with both hands.
I slowly got up, little by little, and when I straightened up, I found that Ayimu still couldn't reach the branches above.
I put up my hands and said, "Step on my palms, and I will hold you." โ
"Good. She stretched out one foot and tried it, and my hand was as steady as Tarzan, and she stretched out her second foot.
In fact, she should be less than a hundred pounds, and I could have thrown it at her, but obviously not.
She finally grabbed the branch, and climbed up hard, looking at me in a hurry, but fortunately, she finally went up, and sat down on the trunk.
I threw the quilt away, and she caught it and covered her body.
She found a branch to lean on her back, and the posture should be quite comfortable, but I reminded: "Don't sleep, it will be troublesome if it falls off in a while." โ
At this moment, a pair of green eyes around me came towards the jujube tree, and I closed my eyes to sense, and more than 20 wolves came from all directions and surrounded the entire jujube tree.
