160 Ascending the Heavenly Mountains
After Jun Qianyu heard the news, he was silent for a long time, and finally spoke: "Okay, then let's go." ”
The carriage was quickly ready, using the five-star carriage that made Ning Xi very amazing, as soon as the equipment was comfortable, this journey had no future, and now what he can do is to try his best to make her still every day, even if she is unconscious, she will have to live as comfortably as possible.
Zhou Ping told Princess Xia Bo that King Yu was going to take Ningxi to Dayue Kingdom for medical treatment, and Princess Xia Bo hurriedly repaired a letter to send it back, and then told Zhou Ping that she had arranged for her father to arrange for someone to meet King Yu and his party at the junction of the two countries, and personally escorted them to find the national teacher.
In order to make it easy to travel, Jun Qianyu only brought five guards this time, one of whom was also a part-time coachman, and the carriage was ready to set off.
Carefully carried Ning Xi to the carriage, with a thick cushion under him, covered with a light feather quilt, and an elegant incense burning in the car, Jun Qianyu was about to open his mouth to give the order to set off, when he suddenly heard a commotion outside, and Steward Zhou panted and shouted: "Miss Ziyun, calm down, don't rush the prince." ”
"Plop!" Ziyun suddenly knelt down outside the carriage, and the sound was so loud that everyone who heard it next to her felt pain in her knees: "Lord Wang, please let Ziyun follow you to the Great Yue Kingdom." ”
Jun Qianyu frowned, a little impatient, and said, "Why? "Since the last wedding night, Ning Xi told him that Ziyun seemed to be a little wrong, he asked people to keep an eye on her and not let her do anything bad, and then when that happened, he completely forgot about her outside the clouds, and he didn't remember why Ning Xi said that Ziyun was wrong.
At this time, I suddenly saw her rushing out, and suddenly my heart moved, could it be that she had something to do with this matter? Motioning to the guards who had come to stop her, let her continue.
Ziyun kowtowed a few times, and his forehead immediately turned red: "It's all Ziyun's fault, it hurts the princess to be like this, please give the slave and maid a chance to atone for their sins!" ”
Jun Qianyu's face turned cold: "How can you say this?" ”
Ziyun said what happened that day with great guilt, and then said: "The slave and maid know that their sins are unforgivable, and they don't ask the prince for forgiveness, but only ask the prince to give the slave and maid a chance to forgive their sins in this trip to Dayue, no matter what the result is, after coming back, the slave and maid will definitely apologize with death." ”
Hearing her say this, Jun Qianyu understood why Ning Xi was so anxious, he was so anxious to lure the Gu King into his body before the March period, it turned out that it was all caused by this woman, to be honest, when she first heard it, she really wanted to kick her in the stomach and rot her intestines.
But in the end, reason prevailed, knowing that it would not help to do so, Ziyun had followed him for many years no matter what he said, and he used it quite smoothly, and he was capable.
"Then tell me, what's the benefit of taking you there?"
Ziyun's face was happy, he took two steps forward on his knees, and hurriedly said: "The slave's biological mother is the Dayue clan, the slave is familiar with the Dayue Chinese language since childhood, and has an understanding of the customs and customs of Dayue, after arriving in the Dayue country, it can play a certain role in interpersonal communication, and the slave has good martial arts, and as a woman, along the way, Wang Ye is taking care of the princess, if there is any inconvenience, maybe the slave can also help a little." ”
Jun Qianyu thought for a while, what she said seemed to have a little truth, and regardless of whether she still needed to go back to pack her luggage or something, she directly ordered: "Give her a horse and go." ”
With a grateful look on her face, Ziyun stepped onto the horse that led her and followed behind the carriage that slowly began to move.
Because of something in his heart, no one had the heart to enjoy the roadside scenery along the way, just blindly buried his head in the road, all the way, only to feel that the wind and sand are getting bigger, the air has become very dry, and he has reached the border.
On this day, I stayed in a place called Kule, where the wind and sand were extremely raging, and the eyes were full of earthy yellow, and when I looked at it, the people I could see seemed to be covered with a layer of earthy yellow gray all over my body, and I couldn't distinguish the original color of my clothes and hair.
But the local people's ability to settle down with the encounter is very strong, it is in such a big wind and sand, but also still live a small life with a taste, there are even people selling Hu cakes on the street, Hu cakes are covered with a gauze cover, when a customer comes to the door, the gauze cover is taken away, a layer of yellow sand falls on the Hu cake, whether it is a vendor or a customer is not careful, and the small broom in hand will sweep the dust away.
The people who came to greet Princess Xia Bo were waiting here.
The people of Dayue took Jun Qianyu and his party, and they didn't have time to say any polite words, so they set off again without stopping, according to them, the national teacher is not in the royal city now, but in the Tianshan Mountains.
The altitude of the Tianshan Mountains is extremely high, most of the year is covered by heavy snow, impassable, now you can go up the mountain, but there is still half a month to start snowing, if you don't rush to the mountain in time within this half a month, then you can only wait until next year to go up.
According to the calculation of the foot, rushing over from here, half a month's time is just right, and it can't be delayed because of anything on the way, so they don't dare to delay, as soon as they receive Jun Qianyu and them, they will set off immediately, and even these words are said while walking on the road.
The further I went, the less green I could see, and the yellow sand was all over the place, and I actually walked to the desert.
It's really not easy to travel in the desert, the day is extremely hot, the night is cold enough, and from time to time there are deadly winds, and if you are not careful, it will become a sandstorm.
Fortunately, these people in Dayue are all old horses, and they have not taken any detours, although the road is hard, it is still smooth.
After walking for a few more days, the weather was getting colder and colder, and the clothes on her body changed from a single shirt to a jacket, and then even the cotton jacket had to be put on, Jun Qianyu was worried that Ning Xi would catch a cold if she didn't move all day, so she was wrapped in a snow fox fur coat, and the snow-white and soft fur surrounded a small white face, which made people feel distressed when they saw it.
Gradually, there was more green in the eye, and the air I breathed was more moist, and it was no longer so dry that it made people feel like their lungs were on fire.
On this day, the people of the Great Yue Kingdom: "His Royal Highness King Yu, the front is at the foot of the Tianshan Mountain, the rules of the Red Lotus Sect, no one is allowed to approach, so the lowly rank can only be sent here, and His Royal Highness King Yu is invited to go by himself." ”
Jun Qianyu arched his hand and said: "Go back and thank King Dayue for your kindness for me, thank you for sending you all the way, goodbye!" ”
After saying goodbye, the people of Da Yue put a signal flare into the sky to inform the people on the mountain that someone was going, and then the two teams parted ways.
Jun Qianyu and his party continued to walk forward until they reached the place where the carriage could no longer move forward, so they could only abandon the carriage, wrap Ningxi tightly with a big coat, and ride forward with a horse.
The first part of the road was easy to walk, and the horses could go up, but the more they got up the mountain, the steeper the road became, and in some places there was no road at all, so we had to cut the grass and trees and make a path for ourselves.
In this way, he could no longer ride a horse, so Jun Qianyu had to carry Ning Xi on his back, tie it firmly with a rope, and climb up hand and foot according to the direction pointed out by those Dayue people before.
A guard couldn't help but whisper: "Such a barren mountain and wild ridge, there is not even a road up and down the mountain, is there really anyone living on it?" What do they usually eat? ”
The others looked at Prince Yu, who had a person on his back and climbed up without saying a word, and they all didn't say a word, and they all scrambled to open the way in front, trying to clean up the surrounding grass and trees, so as not to scratch the princess's delicate face.
As he walked, a guard who was in charge of exploring the way in front ran back with a cautious face: "Lord Wang, the road ahead is not easy to walk. ”
"What's wrong?"
There is no need to wait for him to answer, everyone has already seen it, the front seems to have been split by a sharp axe, and a deep ditch dozens of zhang wide has suddenly cracked, and the ditch is full of clouds and fog, and the bottom is completely invisible, and a stone is thrown down, and there is not a trace of echo after a long time.
Looking to the sides, you can't see the end at all, even if you want to make a detour, you don't know where to start.
The guard who had whispered before couldn't help but babble again: "It's obviously that this road doesn't work, why do those Dayue people have to tell us to go up the mountain from here?" Oh, I see, could it be that they didn't want us to find the Red Lotus Sect at all, so they pointed out the wrong way? ”
Everyone else glared at him fiercely and talked a lot to save him.
Ziyun walked up to Jun Qianyu: "Lord Wang, do you need to go back the way you came, and then go up the mountain from the other side?" ”
Before Jun Qianyu could speak, his face suddenly felt cold, and when he looked up, he saw that a few thin snowflakes were slowly falling, and muttered, "It's snowing!" ”
Ziyun's face changed: "Could it be that it's time for the snow to close the mountain?" ”
Jun Qianyu said: "It's too late to go back the same way, you first take a closer look and think about whether there is any way to cross this moat." ”
After saying that, the others immediately dispersed, carefully searching for a way to continue walking.
Jun Qianyu carefully pulled the hood on Ning Xi's head with his backhand to prevent the snowflakes from falling on her face.
"There it is! Lord, there's something here! One of the guards shouted excitedly from behind a large rock.
Everyone quickly gathered around, and saw what the guard had found, which turned out to be a thick rope, and next to it was a set of bows and arrows, which were all black, more than twice as large as ordinary bows and arrows, and the arrows were also extremely thick and long, and it did not look like ordinary people could pull them at all. 166 Reading Network
