Chapter 14: Exploring the Basui Mountains (2)
Seeing the sun rising higher and higher in the sky, the sunlight emitted was as hot as if it was about to roast people. Although it is located in a small forest, the leaves are yellow and scarce, and it cannot stop the scorching sun.
Nangong Mu raised his head and glared at the sun fiercely, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and didn't get angry.
Looking at the chic and free Bei Tang Xuan walking beside him, he didn't have a good air, "Bei Tang Xuan...... You don't know the way, why do you want me to run after you? We all went from night to noon...... This poisonous sun, sunburn to death the old ......" Nangong Mu looked stunned, and instantly changed his words, "The young master is sunburned......!
"I thought you would know the road!" Bei Tang Xuan looked light, and gently waved his sleeves and fanned his forehead. The movements were very elegant, and he said slowly, "Brother Nangong, don't be impatient, wait until we find a shop, buy a compass and know the direction, and it won't take half an hour to find the way......
Nangong Mu looked at the large sparse jungle in front of him where birds don't, those trees seemed to be malnourished, and the trunks were only the size of a man's arm. The few bleak yellow leaves on the branches of the trees were so shaky in the wind that the sun could not hide them. She said angrily, "Then you tell me where the store is?"
Bei Tang Xuan smiled slightly, "Well...... Let's go first, maybe just ahead......"
"......" Nangong Mu silently walked a few steps faster, and scolded in a low voice as he walked, "Bei Tang Xuan is a big fool, poor, and scoundrel......"
North Tang Xuan, "......"
After walking for a long time, there was still no one to see, the two sat under the tree to rest, seeing that the sun was about to set, Nangong Mu hummed and complained, "If I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have come out with you to suffer the crime...... Aren't you guys going to know how to make Edgeworth? Why don't you know Edgeworth? Isn't that fast?"
"Yes, yes...... But what if Edgeworth doesn't know where the place is, so what if he goes in the opposite direction?"
"......" The more Nangong Mu looked at Bei Tang Xuan's Sven appearance, the more angry she felt in her heart, but Bei Tang Xuan was still eating dry food, unmoved, she leaned over and grabbed the bag of dry food in Bei Tang Xuan's hand, and said angrily, "This is mine, people who can't find their way don't need to eat...... Starve to death!"
"......" Bei Tang Xuan paused, and the hand holding the food became tighter and tighter, "You starved me to death, and you can't find your way back!"
"Alas......" Nangong Mu let out a deep and long sigh, and then said slowly, "I was careless in making friends......"
"You only know now?" The cunning in Bei Tang Xuan's eyes flashed, he fed the last mouthful of food into his mouth, patted his empty palm, and said, "It's late!"
Nangong Mu, "......"
On the second day, the two of them continued to walk, but the woods became denser and denser, and the road became rough and difficult to walk.
No, it should be said that there is no road, the two of them walked indiscriminately in the overgrown woods, and Nangong Mu took a step and glared at Bei Tang Xuan, who was walking in front of her, to vent her dissatisfaction.
"Brother Nangong......" Bei Tang Xuan seemed to finally can't help it, "Don't look at me like this, I'm panicking in my heart......"
Then you find the way for Lao Tzu...... Nangong Mu roared in his heart, glanced at Bei Tang Xuan sadly, and slowly withdrew his gaze. whispered, "It's not because I've been walking for too long that my legs are weak, my chest is tight, and I'm short of breath...... I'm so nervous!"
"You see, the road is ahead. Bei Tang Xuan raised his finger and pointed not far away.
Nangong Mu looked in the direction of his hand, and sure enough, there was a bright road. Under the light of the sun, the whole road seems to be emitting a sparkling light.
"Ah......" Nangong Mu ran over excitedly, walking like flying, where is the soreness of the whole body that he just said. She turned to look at Bei Tang Xuan, bouncing on the main road, and said excitedly, "There is a big road, and it will definitely not be far from the town......
Bei Tang Xuan was suddenly in a trance, that "man", not far in front of him at this moment, his eyes were clear, and his smile was like a flower.
Nangong Mu was about to say something, but she saw Bei Tang Xuan swoop over and cover her mouth. Before she could react, the two of them rolled down into the grass next to the avenue.
"Shhhh......h Nangong Mu nodded, seeing that Bei Tang Xuan was staring intently at the road ahead at this moment.
She followed Bei Tang Xuan's gaze, and the road was empty. After a while, there was a sudden "boom" in the sky, and a large carriage about two feet wide suddenly fell to the ground, and it seemed that even the ground trembled. The whole car is luxurious, and the body is inlaid with various gemstones, which are glittering with gold. The corners of the carriage were covered with coloured tassels, and fine red tulle satin hung gently above the carriage, swaying in the breeze. Carrying the carriage in front of it was a black-headed and white-bodied Pegasus, its whole body was extremely strong, and its two large wings fluttered lightly a few times, and slowly landed at its side.
Nangong Mu remembered that his grandfather said that such a heavenly horse is only available on Ma Chengshan of the Jiufang family. And the courage is very small, and there are very few who can tame it as a mount. It can be seen that the people sitting in this car must be unusual.
In the front seat of the carriage sat a man in a silver mask. Dressed in black, with the reins in his hand.
"Why did it stop?" Suddenly, a question full of doubts came from the carriage, and the voice was delicate and soft, which made people's bodies feel crispy. Immediately afterwards, the carriage was gently lifted up, revealing a woman's face. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at the man in front of her suspiciously. A pair of good-looking peach blossom eyes, willow eyebrows, skin like condensation, red lips lightly, all kinds of style around the eyebrows. Looking back and smiling, the six palaces have no color.
There is such a charming woman in the world? Nangong Mu was amazed in his heart.
Just thinking about it, the silver-masked man suddenly replied to her, "Madam, this is the territory of the Jiufang family, I just saw two people who were a little suspicious, but they couldn't see them anymore!"
The woman frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Those things are not in my hands, let's go!
"Yes, ma'am. The masked man flicked the reins from his hand as he spoke, and Pegasus let out a long roar, and instantly flew up, swooping up, and flying off into the distance.
"Let's go!" Bei Tang Xuan stood up holding Nangong Mu's arm and straightened the clothes on his body.
"That woman was so beautiful just now!" Nangong Mu said with a lewd smile on his face, and said, "Do you know each other?"
"She?" Bei Tang Xuan snorted lightly, revealing a look of disdain, "You can't afford to mess with her!"
Nangong Mu became more and more curious in his heart, "Who?"
"She is the favorite concubine of the current Jiufang family's lord Jiufangyi, and her dreams are also scarlet. Bei Tang Xuan glanced at Nangong Mu and said slowly, "Famous femme fatale!"
"......" Nangong Mu paused, made a contemplative gesture, and said, "Beauty and heart really can't coexist!"
Bei Tang Xuan ignored her, but walked onto the road and waved his sleeves. Looking into the distance, his eyes were deep, "Just now they said that this is the territory of Jiufang." Then, Basui Mountain is definitely not far away. ”
