Chapter Thirty-Nine: Encounters (Seeking Collection)

The sky and the earth are gray, the morning star is still hanging in the eastern sky, and Su County has sent someone to urge.

Accompanied by Su County Commander and Hu County Lieutenant, Yang Yun used two carriages to carry his belongings to the south gate of Shifang County, where the carriage transporting gunpowder and escorting soldiers were already waiting.

Zhu Qiangui, as the commander of the army, did not dismount to greet him.

However, Gongsun Jian greeted him with a serious expression, and he followed closely behind him.

Yang Yun glanced at Gongsun Jian, and said in his heart: "Gongsun Jian is very likely to be blamed by Wang Yu because of the Qinghe matter, and it is estimated that he hates me to death at this time, but it is not good to have a seizure in front of Wang Ji, so he can only swallow his anger." ”

"Real person, this time the team plus your chariot has a total of twenty-eight carriages, a total of one hundred and fifty soldiers, and thirty-six horsemen...... The road to Yizhou is not far here, and all the way is an official road, and if it goes well, it can be reached in three or four days. Su Xian Ling kindly reminded.

Gongsun Jian said: "Su County's order didn't explain clearly last night, and he has to give a detailed request before leaving?" ”

Su Xian Ling knew the reason for Gongsun Jian's bad attitude, and did not say anything, Yang Yun said with a smile: "No matter what time or place you say it, it's the same." ”

Gongsun Jian glared angrily: "I'm here to say ugly things in front, and if I say anything halfway to find someone to do something, delay the march, don't blame me for dealing with military law!" ”

Yang Yun asked: "Then I don't know who has the final say on this trip?" And who will preside over military law? ”

"You ......"

Gongsun Jian was speechless for a while, such an attitude is enough to show that he is not here as a steward, after all, he is only a shogunate appointed by the Jiedu Embassy, and before the Anshi Rebellion, the shogunate only represented a certain social status, but was not recognized by the imperial court, and could not perform specific functions.

Yang Yun pretended to be surprised and asked, "Are you saying that I will preside?" If you have no official or position, how dare you take on this heavy responsibility? ”

Gongsun Jian's face turned pale with anger, and when County Lieutenant Hu saw this, he hurriedly said: "It is the responsibility of the local government to escort the charm, and it will be uniformly dispatched by the subordinates along the way, but it still needs the cooperation of Captain Zhu." ”

While speaking, County Lieutenant Hu looked at Zhu Qiangui, who was riding on a horse not far away and said nothing, probably meaning that he, a civil official, said that it didn't matter, and he needed the cooperation of Zhu Qiangui, the commander of the army sent by the Zhichong Mansion, in order to successfully complete the errand entrusted by the Jiedu Envoy.

"Let's go!"

Gongsun Jian waved his hand impatiently, he repeatedly hit a wall in Yang Yun's place, and he had no intention of making a war of words.

As a person sent by the Jiedu envoy, he seems to have a high status, but he doesn't have much right to speak, and he is also very depressed about it.

With the help of two government soldiers, County Lieutenant Hu mounted his war horse, and Su County Ling grabbed Yang Yun and whispered: "Real person, you have to be careful, although Captain Zhu should obey the dispatch of County Lieutenant Hu, he will only listen to Gongsun Jian if something happens...... Fortunately, from here to Yizhou, it is very prosperous along the way, and nothing should happen. ”

Yang Yunxin said: "Although Shifang is not far from Yizhou, it is not peaceful, you also said that Mianzhou, Pengzhou, and Shuzhou are infested with Nanban, why is it too peaceful in your mouth now?" I don't know which sentence is true and which is false......"

……

……

From Shifang to Yizhou, there are two roads, one takes the west line, from Shifang to Pengzhou Prefecture to govern the old and prosperous city, and then goes south through Xinfan County in the north of Yizhou, crosses Longqiao, Silkworm Cong and other towns to go to the state to govern Chengdu; The other eastern route first went to Luo County, the capital of Hanzhou Prefecture, and then went south from Luo County to Chengdu through the official road through Xindu.

However, it should be noted here that Yizhou Prefecture governs two counties attached to Chengdu and Guo, of which Chengdu County is in the north and west, occupying most of the city, and the state and Jiedu envoys are in Chengdu County, and the local city in the east and south is Shu County, and Chengdu County is divided into Guo.

In order to ensure the safety of the road, the escort team did not take the western front, which was threatened by the Nanban, and chose the eastern route, which was safer and closer to each other.

Out of Shifang City to the east, walk forty or fifty miles of official road everywhere in the state of Zhiluo County on the main road out of Sichuan, and then to the south is the most elite area of the whole Bashu.

However, with the rudimentary nature of the official roads in this era, even if you travel by chariot and horse, you have to walk for three or four days, and you need to be cautious everywhere to transport military supplies, so the speed of travel will be slightly slower.

Yang Yun is not good at riding horses, and he has no plans to practice hard for the time being, and he has been tired of finding the Yarou sisters in the saddle horse these days, so he chose to take a carriage.

Although the official road paved with bluestone slabs and cobblestones has been repaired by special personnel, mud puddles will appear when it rains, and the carriage will be very bumpy during the drive. Yang Yun half leaned on the wall of the carriage of the two-wheeled carriage, closed his eyes and recuperated, and the carriage with him were the sisters Yarou and Yaqing, and An Lun sat alone in the carriage behind, taking care of the goods by the way.

After walking for a while, Yang Yun's spirit recovered slightly, and he began to ask Yarou questions, he wanted to know more about Yarou's situation, especially how Yarou gained superpowers.

But Yarou told her that she didn't know how she had this ability.

Yarou recalled seriously, saying that after her grandmother died, the family ran out of food, and her stomach was so hungry that she and her sister went to the village to beg but there was no gain, and when she came home, she hugged her sister and cried bitterly. Hungry and dizzy, she suddenly felt a black hole in front of her eyes, so she subconsciously reached out to grab it, and as a result, she grabbed a few white-flour steamed buns from it, and was overjoyed, and hurriedly had a full meal with her sister.

Since then, she has developed the ability to open black holes, which she has been able to use at first, but gradually become proficient, but this ability has not immediately improved her and her sister's situation...... This black hole is very unreliable, it appears in a random place every time it is opened, and most of the time it is in the wilderness, and there is nothing to eat at all.

Fortunately, in practice again and again, she was able to slowly perceive the situation on the other side of the black hole, and she could also gradually identify the direction, and finally met Yang Yun, which changed her fate.

After understanding this encounter, Yang Yun sighed sincerely, and I don't know if it is his own or the luck of the Yarou sisters, if he misses that night, he will certainly lose a good helper, and the Yarou sisters are also very likely to die of starvation in the end, in this era, like a drop of water evaporating in the sea, no one pays attention.

……

……

At noon, the group did not rest, took out the dry food from the baggage they carried, chewed a few bites, drank a sheepskin bag of hot water, and continued on their journey.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the group finally arrived in Luo County.

It could have been continued, but Gongsun Jian meant that it was not too early, and there was nowhere to stay after the time, so it was recommended to settle down in the city of Yuxian County.

Yang Yun originally thought that the prefecture would be more prosperous than Shifang, but when he arrived at the place, he found that there was actually no substantial difference with Shifang, and the only thing that looked better than Shifang County was that the damage to the city wall was not so serious, and the city gate looked newer.

“…… There is no need for a thorn reception, we just live in a post house. ”

Arriving at the post house in the city, when Yang Yun got off the carriage, he heard Gongsun Jian explain something to Hu County Lieutenant from a distance, as if he regarded himself as the leader of this team.

The work of contacting the local government will be completed, Yang Yun went to the post house, Wang Ji greeted him with a smile, Yang Yun stood with a cold face, his face was cold, and he didn't want to see him at all.

"The master is still complaining? After I went back next time, I thought about it carefully, and I rashly recommended it to the festival marshal without consulting with you, which is indeed wrong, but it is also a good thing that it can give you the opportunity to serve the court. "The king is still looking for excuses to excuse himself.

Yang Yundao: "What recommendation?" I was only ordered to escort the talisman to Yizhou, and I never had any intention of joining the shogunate. ”

Wang Ji was anxious: "Why don't the masters consider joining the army?" I have received news that the marshal intends to lead the army to conquer ......"

Without waiting for Wang Ji to finish speaking, Yang Yun stretched out his hand to interrupt his words, and said sternly: "In his position, he is a person who is a cultivator, and what he does is not involved in court disputes, and now it is beyond my duty to help the court make charms, if I join the army again, then will I not become a mediocre person who strives for fame and profit?" ”

Wang Ji was dumbfounded by questioning.

"It's time to rest, Prince Wang, please." Yang Yun took An Lun, Yarou and Yaqing into the post house.

Wang Ji stood there and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
