Chapter 16: The Donkey
Donkey sounds
Birdsong
The winter world is lonely, and the occasional dissatisfied complaints of the donkeys alarm the birds in the forest in the distance, which can be regarded as adding a little vitality to this endless loneliness.
Liu Yi looked at the donkey who was leisurely gnawing on the dead grass on the side of the road with some helplessness, and he now understood what a donkey's temper was.
Holding and not leaving, playing backwards, it is said that this beast, at first it was okay, because of the blessing of the light attribute, this donkey seems to run a lot faster, one day from Wollongong to the new wild land boundary, in the middle of the Han River many places have been frozen, so crossing the river is no longer a problem.
But from the next day, this damn donkey is not so well-behaved, and it will not go backwards, but you have to beat it, stubborn, the temper has come up, and it will be wrung directly with you, and no matter how you beat and scold, he just stands still.
In this regard, Liu Yi was helpless, if he didn't have to use it to hurry in the future, he really wanted to stew this beast on the spot.
"It's better to be a beast with enlightened wisdom!" Liu Yi sat in the car, touched Wangcai's head, and glared at the donkey fiercely: "At least you won't be as disobedient as you beast!" ”
When you have the conditions in the future, you must raise a war horse for yourself to pull the cart, although this donkey is not as precious as a war horse, but this temper is too bad.
In Liu Yi's mind, he was already thinking about a hundred ways to cook donkey meat at the moment, this damn donkey, when he arrived at the destination, he was determined to make it pay for today's non-cooperation!
The donkey, who was lowering his head and eating grass roots, shivered for no reason, looked back at Liu Yi, who was ugly, and continued to eat with his head down.
This bad attitude, without the slightest awareness of being a beast and the respect for the master, Liu Yi's thoughts in his heart became even firmer.
Where is this place?
After sulking for a while, Liu Yi looked around, and after leaving Wollongong, his eyes were black, and the unfamiliar environment made Liu Yi, who was used to a comfortable life, feel insecure.
Although he got a map from Zhuge Liang when he left, he ......
Liu Yi unfolded the cloth in his hand, looked at the abstract map outlined on it and the labeling of some place names, Liu Yi silently closed the map again, out of sight, looking at the map, he felt even more chaotic, and he couldn't find the location of the comparison at all, that is, after crossing Xinye, he was lost!
This is a very serious problem, now don't talk about going to Xuchang, even if you want to go back, he may not be able to find the way, this ancient road is different from the modern one, there are street signs to show you, and the fork in the road is not recognizable.
Forget it, keep going north, you can always run into towns.
Liu Yi looked at the map of An, to the north is Nanyang, to Nanyang and then to Luoyang, to the east can reach Yingchuan, to the boundary of Yingchuan, and it is not far from Xuchang.
Of course, this process must be much more difficult than I think now, after all, it is a bit ridiculous to calculate how many days you will be able to reach your destination when you can't even tell the way.
Seeing that the sky had gradually darkened, and he couldn't find a place to stay for a while, Liu Yi could only temporarily find some firewood to set up a temporary tent, and the donkey cart was loaded with oilcloth, so he only needed to find some sturdy firewood.
"Wangcai, go find some firewood and give you a barbecue to eat in a while." Liu Yi jumped down from the donkey cart and greeted Wangcai.
"Wang~" Wangcai has not recovered from the sadness of separating from his friends, after a little listless call, he ran to pick up firewood, Liu Yi untied the donkey cart from the donkey, this body looks heavy, but there is a bonus of light attributes, plus Liu Yi has a strong talent, but it is effortless.
He tied the donkey to a nearby tree, found a few thick branches, polished them with a firewood knife, and then erected a tent next to it.
Beautifully crafted tents: +11 for warmth, +14 for sturdy, +8 for fireproof
Liu Yi didn't know why the tent wrapped in oilcloth had fireproof properties, but there was no reason to talk about the system, so he simply ignored it, anyway, this tent was quite comfortable to live in, and when I entered it, I really didn't feel cold at all.
Wangcai had already helped Liu Yi set up a large pile of firewood when he set up the tent, Liu Yi divided some of the firewood and piled them up, and found the dried meat from the carriage, lit the fire, and skewered a few pieces of dried meat together and began to roast.
Wangcai obediently lay beside Liu Yi, staring at the fire, and let out a whimper from time to time, maybe he missed his friends, maybe he was homesick, after all, it had never left Wollongong.
"I can't go back, and when we settle down, I'll build you a better and bigger new nest." Liu Yi touched the dog's head and smiled: "Find you a beautiful female dog again, and let you give birth to a litter of puppies." ”
As if he understood the words of attention, Wangcai raised his head and licked Liu Yi's palm, and called twice, with a joyful emotion in his voice.
"You're a dog." Liu Yi slapped it on the head and scolded with a smile.
"Wang~"
After eating some food on the fire and a dog on the fire, Liu Yi put out the fire and went into the tent to rest, although it was a meal and sleeping in the open, but the tent was quite comfortable, lying on the straw mat, more comfortable than lying on the soft bed in the previous life, Liu Yi pillowed his arms, Wangcai lay beside him, and a person and a dog gradually fell asleep.
I don't know how long it took, Wangcai's ears suddenly moved, he suddenly opened his eyes and got up, called out to the outside of the tent, and tore Liu Yi's clothes with his teeth from time to time.
"What's wrong? Don't bite! Liu Yi got up from the ground with some dissatisfaction and looked at Wangcaidao.
"Wangwang~" Wangcai called anxiously, and from time to time he ran to the edge of the tent and shouted outside.
Liu Yi gradually frowned, reached out and touched Wangcai's head to comfort it, signaling it not to scream, the ground where he was sitting seemed to tremble a little, it was not obvious, but there seemed to be a muffled thunder in the distance.
At first, Liu Yi was still a little confused, but as the thunderous voice became clear, Liu Yi's complexion changed.
What kind of muffled thunder, it is clear that the sound of dense and rapid horses' hooves is from far and near, and this is a large number of cavalry approaching this side.
Hurriedly came out with Wangcai, and could not see anything clearly in the night, and the donkey was restlessly circling around the tree, as if trying to break free from the reins.
Liu Yi couldn't care so much, so he hurriedly put the donkey cart on the donkey, untied the reins, and jumped into the carriage with Wangcai, this time, the damn donkey probably also sensed the danger, did not drop the chain, hissed, and quickly rushed out in the opposite direction where the sound of hooves came.
Liu Yi sat on the donkey cart, listening to the sound of horses' hooves passing from the rear, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although his tent has solid attributes, but the tent is a tent after all, a large number of cavalry marched forward at night, it was not a joke, fortunately there was Wangcai by his side, otherwise, he might become a puddle of mud tomorrow morning, there is no place to reason, it seems that he will camp in the future, and he can't camp on the side of this road.
In this realm, so many cavalry crossed the border, it should be the cavalry of the Cao army, and I don't know how many people there are in the dark, but it shouldn't be much, and the kung fu has passed in the blink of an eye, I don't know what to do?
"Hey, dead donkey, everyone is gone, stop me!" Liu Yi wanted to stop and continue to rest, but the damn donkey ran wild like fried hair, Liu Yi didn't know where it was going, in the dark night, the small donkey cart was mixed with scolding and dog barking, getting farther and farther away......
