Chapter 66 Shu Road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky
For three days in a row, Fang Jing was riding a donkey, and at this moment Fang Jing took three little babies to officially set foot on Shu Road, which is also the way to ask a group of merchants just now, only then did I know that this is Shu Road, it is said that the official road is difficult, but I found that the official road is not as difficult as the so-called Shu Road.
As Fang Jing and the others continued to move forward, the road began to become difficult to walk, the road was narrow, and sometimes they had to get off the donkey to walk, which made the trip slower, but they also saw the scenery of Shu Road, the beauty of the Qinling Mountains, not words can describe it, this may only be able to appreciate this beauty.
The mountains are high and the forests are dense, the rocks are dangerous, with the advance of Fang Jing and their group, they finally understood that the Shu Road is difficult, it is really difficult, it is rare that sometimes it is impossible to move forward, some roads are blocked by large gravel, it is rare that this Shu Road is basically not walked, perhaps because of the hardships and dangers, so that the merchants who come and go to Chang'an are not willing to take this Shu Road anymore, Fang Jing does not know what the name of this Shu Road is, but from this way, he finally understands the difficulty of the Shu Road.
Empty and uninhabited, occasionally birds passing by, the sound of insects, the sound of hooves on the trail makes this Shu road have a feeling of people, Fang Jing and their group, Min Ran was submerged in this thorny path, if it wasn't for the occasional talking, it was basically impossible to tell that there were people walking on this trail.
"Brother Jing, it's so difficult to walk here, there are too many weeds and wattles, and they all scratch my new clothes." Xiaocao hugged her beloved little leopard, but complained to Fang Jing who was walking in front.
"Xiaocao, you are careful of your feet, don't fall, you can buy your clothes if you are torn, but if you fall and get hurt, you will be in trouble." Fang Jing is also very speechless about this Shu Road, this is also no way, who told them to choose this road, if you listen to the businessman said that you don't have to work so hard by water, although it is farther, but at least you don't have to let these little babies suffer like this.
Fang Jing didn't know how far the waterway was at all, it was five or six times or even ten times the distance, with Fang Jing and a few of them now, they could at least cross the Qinling Mountains, and they could get to Chang'an in seven or eight days, but now, it is estimated that it is still far away.
All the way up and down the mountain, then along the cliff, and then to the plank road, the three of them were exhausted, Fang Jing felt okay, but the three little babies were no longer able to move forward.
"Let's sit down and rest, eat something and drink some water, and then you all ride on the back of a donkey, and I'll take you slowly." Fang Jing looked at the three little babies, she was indeed a little helpless to choose the road of Shu Dao, if she was alone, it would be very casual, but with these three little babies, Fang Jing had to take care of them from time to time.
"Brother Jing, why are you so powerful and not tired at all?" Xiaocao hugged the little leopard, sat on the ground to rest, looked at Fang Jing, and admired Fang Jing very much with a pair of big eyes.
"Brother, I'm older than you, and my body is better than yours, and when you grow to my size, you won't be so tired." Fang Jing looked at such a cute little doll, but she was thinking about her little sister in her heart, and her own little sister often looked at herself with big eyes.
"Then I will have to eat a lot of food in the future, so that I can grow up, and I can also help Brother Jing wash clothes and cook in the future." Xiaocao said to Fang Jing very cutely, completely looking like I am an adult, in fact, the three little guys are already very thin, as long as they are a little careless and have a serious cold, it is estimated that half of this life can be gone.
Fang Jing looked at this little baby, and estimated that this little person thought that when he grew up in the future, he would cook and wash for Fang Jing, be a girl, and grow up happily.
"Okay, brother, I'll wait for you to grow up quickly, and then do laundry and cook for my brother, and when I grow up, I will grow into a big girl, beautiful and beautiful, and then find a good in-law." Fang Jing felt that Xiaocao would definitely be a little beauty when she grew up in the future, at least from this cute and cute little face, she could feel that she would never be bad in the future.
"Well, I want to grow up quickly, Brother Jing, what is my in-law's family?" Xiaocao turned on her 100,000 whys again, which also made Fang Jing speechless.
"This in-law, you'll know when you grow up in the future, wow, I can't tell this brother." Fang Jing didn't want to answer or explain anything.
"Alright, let's eat something, rest for a while, and get ready to go." Fang Jing didn't want to continue to talk about these 100,000 whys, mainly what a four-year-old guy and an old man with life experience in his thirties could talk about.
"Brother Jing, how far is it from Chang'an?" The big head was eating dried meat, drinking water, and hurriedly asked Fang Jing about the distance of Chang'an.
"This, I don't know, I guess we will have to walk in this mountain for a few days to see the town, there should be some distance from Chang'an." Fang Jing told the big head truthfully.
The three little babies also stopped talking, quietly eating jerky and drinking water, and the two little ones also fed some chewed jerky from time to time to the little leopard to eat, the little leopard because there was no mother, and there was no milk to drink, so he had to eat these jerky to live, from the beginning of the cleverness, to the present thin and spiritless look.
After everyone had rested, Fang Jing let the big head ride on the back of the donkey in the middle, hugged the two small ones and sat on the back of the donkey he was leading, and then began to set off again.
After a while, a valley suddenly appeared, the valley gathered a lot of streams, the plank road was built along the edge of the valley, there are a lot of birds in the valley to live here, a picture of natural harmony, leaning on the quiet and peaceful, so that Fang Jing stopped, looked into the distance, took a deep breath, and breathed the breath of nature.
"It's so beautiful here, but it's a pity that there's no one." Fang Jing finally only said this sentence, the words were not rich enough, and he used a simple and unpretentious sentence to express his feelings.
"Brother Jing, it's very beautiful here." Xiaocao, why did she take Fang Jing's words, and also sighed, maybe it can only be called random, she doesn't know what the sigh is called, and she doesn't know why Fang Jing said that it is beautiful here.
"Let's go, I'm going to get to the other side of the hill today." Fang Jing picked up the donkey rope and pointed to a mountain in the distance and said, but the three little people behind didn't know why Fang Jing wanted to go there.
The sky was gloomy, although it was not raining, but it was going to be like it would not fall, which made Fang Jing want to go faster, fortunately, there is still a plank road to walk, but don't be a rugged mountain and rock, and it is difficult to even call a donkey, otherwise, it is really possible to spend it in the wind and rain today.
After all, the rain still fell, although it was not heavy rain, but this drizzling feeling made everyone very annoying, and from time to time there were gusts of wind, cold and cold, Fang Jing's eyes had been checking whether there were stone caves or big trees or something in front of him, but he never saw it, so he had to brave the drizzle and continue to walk.
The drizzle has been falling, there is no plank road, the road begins to become slippery, if you accidentally fall, it is also a headache, Fang Jing also tried his best to hold the donkey rope, so that the donkey can be more stable, but sometimes even he will be slippery by the muddy and slippery road.
"You sit down, the little tree holds the rope, the grass hugs the little tree, big head, you have to tighten the rope, don't fall down." After Fang Jing slipped and fell just now, he immediately opened his mouth and told the three little babies, don't really have a big wrestle, then you will be unlucky.
Walking slowly in the drizzle, this also made the clothes on several people wet, although the rain was not heavy, but the drizzle also soaked the clothes on the body, the cold rain was very cold, but at the moment there was no way, there was no place to camp, so I had to move forward slowly until I found a place where I could camp.
"You guys sit down tightly, the front is going down the mountain, don't fall." Fang Jing looked at the road extending down the mountain, and hurriedly told the three little babies.
"Okay." The three little babies replied in unison.
Coming down from the mountain, the road began to be stable, just when he came down from the mountain just now, but Fang Jing was scared, Xiaocao was small because of the small strength of the person, holding the second brother in front of him, he didn't have enough strength to grasp it steadily, and slipped out directly from her second brother's back, if it wasn't for Fang Jing walking in front of him and holding the donkey rope, he quickly caught the little guy, it is estimated that the little guy would have rolled directly from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain.
Xiaocao didn't sit on the back of a donkey after a thrill just now, Fang Jing just hugged the little guy like this, and hugged it down from the mountain, Fang Jing didn't want to fly again in a thrilling way, if he rolled down, he would basically have no life, the little guy was also scared half to death, he kept holding on to Fang Jing's clothes and didn't let go, trembling in Fang Jing's arms, maybe he was frightened, maybe his clothes were soaking wet.
"Look, Brother Jing, there's a room in front." The big head rode on the back of a donkey, and after turning a corner, he saw a house dozens of feet ahead.
"Ah, what a house, yes, camp there tonight, preferably not too shabby." Fang Jing raised his eyes and saw a square fortress-shaped house not far ahead.
The group of people quickly walked to the front of the house, the house was a little dilapidated, a door like a round hole, it looked a little like a fortress, but Fang Jing could be sure that it should be a post station, because there was a large grass hut on the right side of the house, with wooden shelves, and thatch on it.
After Fang Jing hugged the little man, he took off the things on the donkey's back and took them into the house, which was empty, there was nothing, except for a pile of weeds in a corner of the house, there was really nothing, a doorway, three small square windows.
Fang Jing put down his things, untied the cloth, took out clean and dry clothes from it and handed them to the three villains, asking them to put the changed clothes on the cloth, and go out with their swords to chop some firewood, otherwise don't think about it tonight.
Holding the dry branches and wood sections that were still a little wet into the house, after cutting them into small sections, he took some hay from the corner and lit the fire, set up some small branches, and added large firewood after the fire was big, Fang Jing looked at the fire and it was okay, and went out of the doorway, and led the three donkeys to the grass shed, fortunately it was able to block the rain, but there was no forage for them to eat, so they had to sprinkle some beans for them to eat, and wait for tomorrow to feed some soaked beans.
Fang Jing hurriedly ran to cut a long tree stick again, set it up not far from the fire, spread out all everyone's clothes on the stick, and slowly dried it.
"You wait here, I'll catch a game and come back to make supper, and when it's cold, I'll roast it." Fang Jing took the sword out of the doorway again, drilled into the mountains and forests at will, opened the scanning eye to look for prey, Fang Jing didn't pick it, flew over at random, caught three rabbits, returned to the house, carried the pot and got some rice and began to prepare for cooking, fortunately there was a stream not far from this post station, otherwise Fang Jing could only go to find a water source.
Fang Jing also felt that the post station must be built in a place where there was water, otherwise how would the people of the post station draw water to cook and eat, so he felt that his idea was too simple.
Fang Jing picked up some stones from outside the house and entered the house, set up a stone stove, cooked rice, and began to roast rabbit meat, and then he began to change his clothes, mainly because he was afraid that he would get wet again after going out many times.
