Chapter 12: Chasing the Wind

Shu City and Qingfeng City were located on the north side of the Divine Lamp Empire, and after Lin Feng and Bai Yu left Qingfeng City, they headed all the way south.

Lin Feng and Bai Yu walked on the wide avenue, in the deserted deep mountains, or took a boat to swim in the gasping river.

The two of them walked and stopped, stopped and walked, hurried as soon as the morning dawned, and camped and rested everywhere at night, cultivating, and having someone as their companion, and it did not seem boring in this long trek.

On the contrary, because the two of them were full of fun, it was like going to the green, which is also in winter, if it is in the spring, others will definitely think that they are going to the green.

For ten days in a row, Lin Feng and Bai Yu were moving forward like this.

One day at noon, the two met a caravan coming in the same direction, and from a distance, this caravan had about 30 wagons.

The head of a carriage is more luxurious, pulled by four horses, the carriage is more than three meters wide, more than two meters high, the body is carved with some spirit animal carvings, in addition to the spirit animal carving, there is a pattern in the center of the position, which should be the symbol of a certain chamber of commerce.

The more than 30 carriages behind are relatively ordinary, all of them are drawn by two horses, and the carriages are covered by thick cloths.

There is a coachman in front of each carriage, and behind the carriage, there are about twenty warriors, basically all samurai and high-ranking samurai, it seems that the goods escorted by this chamber of commerce are not only heavy, but also valuable, otherwise they will not make such a big pomp, and it should be a caravan of a large chamber of commerce, the first small chamber of commerce does not have this strength, and the second basically does not need to line up such a large escort team.

After looking at the caravan for a while, under Lin Feng's understanding, the two of them walked forward and ignored it.

But the speed of walking was not as fast as that of the carriage, and after a while, he was chased by the caravan behind.

A deep voice came from the carriage and said, "Hey, what are those two people doing in front of you, to block our way?" It turned out that the two had been chatting while walking just now, and they didn't notice the caravan behind, and they were stopped by the caravan before they had time to avoid it.

Lin Feng turned his head to look, only to see a middle-aged man walking out of the luxurious carriage, presumably this should be the leader who had just spoken.

Lin Feng glanced at the huge caravan in front of him and said, "I'm sorry, my brothers were too involved in chatting just now, and I didn't notice the caravan coming from behind, I'm very sorry, please forgive me." ”

The middle-aged man looked at the sincere Lin Feng, smiled and said, "The young man is still very sensible, yes, yes, there are not many young people like you now." Where did the two come from and where are they going, if you stop by, you can take the two little brothers for a ride. ”

Seeing that the leader of the caravan was more sincere and did not have any malicious intent, Lin Feng couldn't help but let down his guard against the leader and said: "Hello, we are from Shucheng, and we are going to Kamikaze City to take the exam, thank you very much, seniors, but let's walk, it is fun and we can also practice on the way." ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "This little brother is not simple, he can see the penance so thoroughly. The two turned out to be students who were going to the kamikaze academy for the exam, which was disrespectful and disrespectful. However, with the speed of the two little brothers, I am afraid that they will not be able to catch up with the exams of the Kamikaze Academy. ”

Lin Feng listened to the middle-aged man's words and asked angrily, "Why did the seniors say that, although my brothers and sisters are walking slowly, but according to our current progress, we can definitely catch up with the exam of the Divine Wind Academy." Which Chamber of Commerce did the predecessor belong to, and why did he know so much about the Kamikaze Academy?"

The middle-aged man said: "Don't hide it from the two little brothers, I am from the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce in the north of Shucheng, and I am responsible for escorting this batch of goods to Yancheng." As for the kamikaze academy that the little brother just mentioned, this is the first academy of our kamikaze empire, and these are easy to inquire about, knowing where to choose the time of the students. ”

"As for why I just told my little brother about this, it's true, Qingfeng City is far away from here, normally your speed can definitely reach it, but unfortunately little brother, don't forget, this is winter, if you wait a few more days for snow, the snow will be thick and slippery, and the speed will slow down a lot. I used to escort goods to kamikaze more often, and I still know it deeply. The middle-aged man said again.

Lin Feng listened to what the middle-aged man said, and thought about it carefully, it seemed that this was the case, all along, he had only counted the normal distance and time, and did not count accidents and possible delays at all, such an arrangement must also be unreasonable, if the exam was really delayed because of these problems, it would be worth the loss.

Lin Feng said to the middle-aged man: "I'm sorry senior, the junior misunderstood you just now, the junior did not count some natural and man-made disasters or some other trivial time before, it is indeed possible to cause delays, thank you seniors for reminding me." ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Little brother is polite." To be able to meet is fate, I just said it casually, little brother doesn't have to care too much. I am one of the housekeepers of the Tiandu Chamber of Commerce, everyone is used to calling me Steward Wang, if you don't mind, little brother, you can call me Brother Wang. ”

Lin Feng looked at the amiable Steward Wang, and said, "Then I might as well be respectful, Brother Wang, under Lin Feng, this is my brother Bai Yu, just call us by our names." ”

Steward Wang said: "The two little brothers are going to the Kamikaze Academy, I'm afraid the next stop will have to pass through Yancheng, if you walk to Yancheng, it will take at least five days, and it just so happens that I am also going to Yancheng to deliver goods, so let's get in the car, I will take you for a ride, and it will not be in vain to get acquainted." ”

At the invitation of Steward Wang, Lin Feng and Bai Yu got into Steward Wang's carriage. Before, I only looked at the carriage from the outside, and it was particularly delicate and beautiful, but when I entered the inside, I found that the carriage was even more amazing, there were two rows of backrest seats, the seats were wrapped in a layer of animal skin, and it was particularly soft to sit on, and in the middle of the two rows of seats was a rectangular table, with some food and water.

The interior space of the carriage is also carved with some spirit animal patterns, and the top of the carriage is carved with lotus flowers, which makes the whole carriage particularly magnificent.

The three of them chatted casually, and they all got to know each other a little more, and Lin Feng asked about the speed of the carriage and the horses pulling it. Steward Wang gave Lin Feng a detailed explanation: "This horse is called the Wind Chasing Horse, if you run with all your strength, you can travel 800 miles a day, and the one behind it is called the Dark Cloud Horse, although it is slightly worse, you can also travel 500 miles a day."

Then he asked where to buy this wind chasing horse, and Steward Wang did not hesitate to tell Lin Feng that basically there would be a horse market in the city. Lin Feng and Bai Yu glanced at each other, and then made a decision, walking like this is indeed a bit slow, in order to reach the Kamikaze Academy smoothly, the two decided to ride a horse, so there is basically no problem.

Although the carriage was carrying heavy goods and did not run with all its might, it was still faster than people, and in just two days, it arrived in Yancheng, which also made Lin Feng and Bai Yu's confidence in riding horses to catch the exam even stronger.

After arriving in Yancheng, after the two thanked Steward Wang, they separated from Steward Wang on the spot, after all, Steward Wang went to deliver the goods, and the two of them had to continue to hurry, so they couldn't be together.

After separating, the two found a local jack-of-all-trades and found the location of the horse market. The two of them ran over in a hurry, and under the introduction of the boss, they went to the stable of the wind chasing the pony and picked them up.

In just a quarter of an hour, the two of them each picked a wind-chasing horse, which was worthy of being a good horse that could travel 800 miles a day, and a horse cost 80,000 taels of silver.

The two of them paid their own money, looked at the wind chasing horse in front of them, and smiled proudly, anyway, with this wind chasing horse, they will definitely be able to reach the kamikaze academy smoothly, as long as they can reach the kamikaze academy smoothly, it is worth spending as much money as possible.
