Chapter 21: Unintentional
"Changyuan is here, okay, I'll send you here. You go down the road and keep going until you meet someone and ask about it. Boss Bai poked his head out of the carriage and waved his hand at Ju Lingxue, who was still on the cart, and said.
"Thank you, thank you, goodbye!" Ju Lingxue hurriedly got up from the cart, and then climbed down cautiously.
After standing firmly, he respectfully bowed to Boss Bai.
Boss Bai smiled heartily and unconcernedly, and then turned back to the carriage.
It can be said that the other party did not defect halfway, and leaving her in the middle of the road is already benevolent and righteous.
If you have the opportunity in the future, you still have to thank them.
The slightly nervous and apprehensive journey ended in a hurry, and after getting off the cart, the caravan of dozens of people who watched Boss Bai from a distance gradually moved away.
Somehow, Ju Lingxue's heart suddenly felt a little remorseful.
What kind of place is this, the surrounding area looks desolate and overgrown, and it doesn't look like there are many people living here.
In fact, she should have said that it was a prosperous place, at least in the city, what kind of wilderness is this?
There are no people, where is she going to ask for directions?
Boss Bai said simply, what did he say to go along this road, and then find someone to inquire, and I don't know if Chen Guo has a language barrier here, and whether he rejects outsiders.
Forget it, let's take it one step at a time.
However, when she got off the car before, the other young men in the caravan all looked at her with a sympathetic look, and even when they looked in the direction of Changyuan, they had a look of fear.
Ju Lingxue couldn't help but think of the haunted thing they said about Changyuan, and she didn't know if it was true or not.
Regardless of whether it is true or not, she settles down first, and then recuperates for a while before making plans, after all, there are still many things waiting for her to do.
Following the direction of Boss Bai's finger, Ju Lingxue was still hunched on her back, bending over and walking slowly.
Always remember that he is now a frail old man, an old man with leprosy scars.
I don't have much medicine left, and if I go to the village, I may have to go to a doctor and get some medicine for trauma or something.
The part of the medicine that Jiang Zheng had reserved for her had almost been used, and many of the wounds on her body were now slowly starting to scab over.
Looking up at the sky, the sun was already in the afternoon, and it would not be long before the sun set.
He needed to walk a little faster, and try to find a place to settle down before dark, with a little copper plate on him, and a little bit of broken silver.
It's just that I don't know if it's interoperable here, and if it's not interconnected, it doesn't seem like there's anything valuable to take out and exchange with others.
The wide road, which used to be a problem for three carriages running side by side, began to get narrower and narrower, and it almost became a sheep's intestine path as you walked.
But in the process, not a single person was seen, nor did he see the houses, only the undulating, uneven layers, the trees scattered on both sides of the road, and the barren weeds.
There are some fields in the distance, which don't look like they have been cultivated, as if they have been left here for a long time.
If it weren't for the fact that when she left, she felt that her relationship with Boss Bai was acceptable, she would have wondered if Boss Bai really deliberately left her in a deserted place.
"What the hell is this?" Ju Lingxue couldn't help but muttered in her heart.
If there is no one in private, why don't you speed up and ......
Just when Ju Lingxue couldn't help but want to speed up a little, there was a sudden movement from the direction behind her.
And this movement is not ordinary, and there is more than one person when the horse's hooves are flying.
Ju Lingxue glanced back, and suddenly found a large number of people and horses rushing in the direction where she was, and the smoke and dust stirred up under the horse's belly were about to invade the human face.
couldn't help but subconsciously snorted, Ju Lingxue felt that she would be kicked to death under the horse.
Normal people will avoid fierce horses in time, and the impact of horses is all too familiar to her in the barracks.
Ju Lingxue saw that she couldn't hide anyway, so she simply jumped into the ditch next to her.
In fact, it is a small ditch dug by farming and water diversion, which is not deep. And it's long since it dried up.
Rather than being hit by a horse, it is better to stop the loss in time.
This sheep intestine path is so wide, it is inconvenient for others to take a detour for her.
Ju Lingxue, who jumped down, leaned on the ridge of the field, pretending to be frightened.
And the group of men and horses were really ready to walk from the side and step into the field, but they didn't expect the old lady to jump by herself, and she couldn't help but feel a little funny.
The jumping posture is a little clumsy and a little silly.
The reins, which had been tightened slightly, relaxed again, and passed past Ju Lingxue's side calmly, and at the end, he glanced at Ju Lingxue twice.
The smoke and dust stirred up made Ju Lingxue turn her back, and she coughed and coughed for a long time before she relieved her breath, and her chest hurt.
How can there be a team of soldiers and horses in the wilderness? Where are they going?
Normally, soldiers are not allowed to move around and appear in the field of view of ordinary people, except for special emergency duties.
Stationed at their own station, there is a corresponding training to be done every day, and generally when the day's training tasks are completed, it is dark.
The clothes worn by this small group of centaurs were neatly dressed, and the clothes worn by the leader were much more gorgeous than those of the entourage who followed him.
I thought that Chen Guoguo was the kind of country that used animal skins as protective gear, but today it seems that it is not so backward, but she has preconceived ideas.
In fact, there is not much difference between the two countries, the reason why Ju Lingxue will judge that they are soldiers rather than ordinary guards, it can be seen by the degree to which they are in the same step,
Their faces were also covered with armor, and they could only see a pair of eyes from a distance, Ju Lingxue took care of her identity, and was afraid of being caught and questioned, so she didn't look at them much, so she had to glance at them hurriedly.
After the dust settled, Ju Lingxue slowly climbed up from the ditch, and her already tattered shoes stepped on the mud again.
Standing on the path again, Ju Lingxue stomped her feet hard, looking at the toes of her toes, the shoes opened, these cloth shoes really didn't wear them.
Raising an eyebrow, she would have thought that she would have such a down-and-out day.
The soldiers had already run away, and she, in the current situation, could only walk forward with her feet up.
She kept Boss Bai's words in mind, kept walking, and then found someone to question.
She really doesn't have to stay here in Changyuan, it's her problem that she didn't choose the right place to stay, and she can't complain about others.
If it comes, it will be safe. Chen Guo, what is going on here, and how she will realize her revenge plan in the future, these are all things that need to be carefully considered.
It is said in the history books that someone once Taoguang was obscure for ten years before he got the opportunity to get close to the enemy, became the enemy's assistant for another three years, and successfully assassinated him for another three years.
I don't know who has so much patience, but fortunately, the ending is still happy.
The shoes with their mouths open and stained with mud can no longer be worn, and dragging them is a burden.
Ju Lingxue carried a small burden on her back, and there was only a change of clothes in it, and there was nothing else to do.
Look at the ground, there is still some grass, it is estimated that it will be a little stabbed, and I thought that if I met the villagers later, she should get a little sympathy for her appearance.
Ju Lingxue kicked the shoes on her feet without hesitation, and walked forward with a deep foot and a shallow foot.
The instep of the plain white was a little dazzling, and she was not very relieved, so she grabbed some mud with her hand and wiped her feet dirty.
If you want to pretend, pretend to be a little bit.
Seeing the sun going down little by little, Ju Lingxue couldn't help but get nervous in her heart.
If she can't find a place to live before dark, she really has to spend the night in the wilderness.
It's not afraid to stay overnight in the wild, but it's more exposed, and the body is just a little unbearable.
Walking and walking, this sheep intestine trail finally came to an end, and Ju Lingxue felt that the soles of her feet were itchy and numb, and she panicked.
I just passed by a cemetery, and the neatly stacked cemetery looked a little uncomfortable.
There were many trees planted around the cemetery, and the leaves were almost gone, and only the bare trunks and branches remained, and it was almost a few days before winter began.
There was a new tomb that caught Ju Lingxue's attention, but this tomb was a little strange.
Ju Lingxue couldn't help but take a few more looks.
A tall snow-white tombstone has been engraved with the names of the deceased, and the characters are also in bold black letters.
But behind it, the tomb was just a large pit for a coffin, and there was no coffin filling in it.
Could it be that the funeral customs here are different from those of the Wei State, so that they all erect monuments first, dig pits first, and then resettle them?
However, that is not right, there are offerings in front of the tombstone, incense is burned, paper money is burned, and a bunch of dishes are placed.
If there is a grave without people, it is equivalent to making an empty grave, and the empty grave still has to be worshipped?
The deceased is the biggest, Ju Lingxue shrunk her neck, wanting to think deeply, but when she saw those dishes, she suddenly remembered that she was going to enter the village with a begging appearance, and there was still a tool in her hand.
So I paid attention.
When she secretly left the new cemetery, she took a bowl with her, and searched the corner, and discarded the extra because the bowl was missing a corner.
This, it is not good to take other people's things, but Ju Lingxue, left and right, feels that she is empty-handed, and she is always a little unsure when she enters the village.
I don't know where this unsteady feeling comes from.
