Chapter 130: The Donkey and the Monk
By the time Lu Zhe returned to the army, Chen Wenruo had already left.
He walked so suddenly, just like he came suddenly.
Lu Zhe faintly noticed that for Chen Wenruo's departure, except for Sun Simiao, the master of the medicine king, all the people who traveled with him were relieved, and those Xuanjia captains were even more than Lu Zhe.
The mountain spider is gone. This was the subconscious words of a certain lieutenant after learning that Chen Wenruo had left, and then he subconsciously looked back and forth, as if he was afraid of being heard.
And this scene was fully watched by Lu Zhe, who happened to return to the official road. I have to sigh that Chen Wenruo is terrible, even the captain of Xuanjia is so afraid of him.
The power of his people, even Si!
After all, in ancient times, there was never only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname.
Mountain spiders, giant spiders, as big as wheels, their silk can stop bleeding, live in the deep mountains and secluded, can bind people with silk, drag back to their holes and eat them.
To be able to have such a sinister and murderous nickname among the hundred horsemen must be an extremely terrifying person.
Although Captain Yuwen expressed a certain degree of happiness at the departure of this famous man in the Hundred Horses, what made Yuwen Yin extremely unhappy was the words left by the scholar when he left.
"This time to Chang'an, we are mainly Shanshui Lang, just send it to Chang'an, we can go back to the palace to pay the order, and you don't need to ask about the rest."
"But—" Their mission was to find and bring back this Shanshui Lang, and logically speaking, after this mysterious Shanshui Lang was taken to Chang'an, he needed to go through a review and interrogation by the hundred horsemen. Although they knew when they saw Sun Simiao, it was a little unrealistic for them to take this little demon to the headquarters of the Hundred Horses, and with Pei Qingnu joining as an attendant female officer, it seemed that Lu Zhe was the main one along the way.
"Captain Yuwen can feel what's wrong?" The man rode on a white horse, and under the backlight, he looked more and more handsome, like a good son in the world.
"Obey the warrant!" Hearing the four words of inappropriateness, Yu Wenyin suddenly felt a chill coming, so he didn't think about it, and immediately saluted and accepted the matter.
Well, there was still room for ambiguity about the question of the people of this team, but now it has been decided by this calligrapher.
This son is really hateful, three days later, looking at Lu Zhe not far away, Yuwenyin, who was riding on the horse, was not only a little depressed. When is it, still messing around here.
Lu Zhe in the distance was competing against a little green donkey, and was putting a bridle on the green donkey, and he didn't succeed several times, until a certain Xuanyi lieutenant couldn't stand it anymore, so he went over to help get it right.
This kid treats Captain Wu Xuanyi as a very son, and even asked Li Xiaoshan to help get a donkey, which is really not a son of man. Seeing Li Xiaoshan take a bottle of wine from Lu Zhe's hand with a flattering face, Yu Wenyin not only took a sip in the direction of the two.
The day after Chen Wenruo left, Lu Zhe finally got the first mount in his life, although he had also ridden the Rolling Emperor hot pot before, but he didn't dare to treat the Rolling Emperor as his own mount, and only when the Rolling Emperor was in a good mood, he could let his two-legged beast sit on his back, and at other moments, the back of the Rolling Emperor was not something that ordinary beasts could go up.
This little green donkey was discovered by Sun Simiao, and Lu Zhe expressed his appreciation for Sun Simiao's four-hoofed snow race unicorn, so when passing through a small village called Baiquan, Sun Simiao found a green donkey that could be ridden.
This donkey is green and green, without a single miscellaneous hair, its two ears are much longer than ordinary donkeys, and it is covered with long hair, it looks like a little pony that Mr. Yu Qian poured into Mr. Yu's bones and blood in the pet paradise that thundered and split the day.
When I saw this green donkey at that time, this green donkey was carrying a large amount of firewood and covered in mud, but Sun Simiao saw at a glance that this donkey was extraordinary, and hurriedly asked Lu Zhe to buy it. Lu Zhe looked at this skinny, curly hair, filthy donkey, and had no desire to buy it at all, but he thought that it was the medicine prince who took a fancy to him, so he didn't hesitate to pay for it.
Unexpectedly, after thoroughly cleaning this donkey, it was like two donkeys, and Lu Zhe fell in love with this donkey at a glance. He spent a great deal of money to find a tanner to make a bridle and a saddle, and bought a lot of beans and fine forage, and put them on the roof of the carriage that the princess had given him.
"I didn't expect the medicine prince to know how to be a donkey." After finally getting the green donkey, Lu Zhe rode on the donkey, feeling that everything around him was quite novel, and he walked so smoothly, much more smoothly than in the carriage.
Everyone in the group knew that Lu Zhe was not used to the bumps of the carriage, and while lamenting that this Shanshui Lang was a little squeamish, he also admired the medicine prince very much.
This donkey was driven to carry heavy loads when it was in the hands of the villagers before, no different from the common donkeys in the Datang Village, at most it was a long hair, but it was Sun Simiao's eyes at a glance, and after cleaning, it turned out to be such a miracle, although at this time it was still a little unable to keep up with the speed of everyone, but only because this donkey has not yet grown up, and it was not full before, so it can't keep up with the speed of everyone for the time being, and over time, even Lu Zhe can see that this donkey is not inferior to Sun Simiao's white donkey.
Am I the Vlado who has just embarked on an adventurous journey, and the Medicine Lord is the dual-wielding Gandalf? Lu Zhe suddenly looked a little like the Lord of the Rings.
The same little man riding a low horse, the same white-haired old man with a superb skill, the same carrying a heavy treasure (a model of a zigyuan plow) to the capital of a certain king, and the black-clothed guards who belonged to that king, dressed in black, came and went like the wind, and had terrifying strength. Yes, I'm not talking about the Lord of the Rings, but Lu Zhe and his party.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhe, who was riding on a donkey, couldn't help but laugh dumbly. The fear that Chen Wenruo brought to himself couldn't help but dilute a lot, and a sense of pride also arose.
Although it's a bit of a secondary two.
"go-" Lu Zhe clamped the donkey's belly between his legs, and the little donkey seemed to feel the mood of the new master, and ran forward.
So, the young man and the young donkey galloped away in the direction of the setting sun.
By the time Chen Wenruo's letter arrived, it was already a day later, and they had already walked to the territory of Ruzhou, which was in the west of Chenzhou and southeast of Luoyang, and through Ruzhou, they basically walked out of Henan Road, and further on, it was the famous Tongguan.
The content of Chen Wenruo's letter is very simple, with a few sentences, explaining the causes and consequences of the Chishuiyuan War, that is, Xue Wanche, who was besieged, was fortunately rescued by the former Tiele Khan Qibi He Li, so he escaped from danger and took advantage of the situation to break the Tuyuhun army. In the letter, he expressed a great degree of praise and praise for Shanshui Lang as a god.
"The widow of the Liu family in the mountain, hired the outlaw in the mountain, the intention is not conducive to the virtuous brother, the foolish brother has been killed, the matter of the Liu family has been done, some mundane things, and I hope that the virtuous brother will not read it. A small gift is not a tribute. Along with the letter sent, there was also a wooden box, Lu Zhe opened it and saw that it was densely packed, full of human ears, with sharp incisions, and at first glance, it was cut off by someone with a very fast sharp blade. And above the ear, there is a silver hairpin.
Lu Zhe has the impression that this silver hairpin is the thing on the head of the mistress of the Liu family.
It is estimated that this Liu Wang's family is also more auspicious, and he threw the wooden box to the side of the road, Lu Zhe lowered his head and continued to look at the fragments of the Qing Bag Sutra, this Chen Wenruo, who was worried about himself, was so ruthless, it would be better for him to learn more methods before confronting him next time.
By the time Lu Zhe would clean up his mood and be about to continue learning the poison technique in this fragment of the Green Capsule Sutra. A bell-like voice came.
"You Tanyue are going to the city of Ruzhou?"
"Exactly! I wonder what the master has to say? Yuwen Yin, who was on the horse, arched his hand, which was regarded as a salute.
"That's right, the poor road is also going to Ruzhou, it's a long road, how about walking together?" The owner of the voice did ask Lu Zhe. (This is not a clerical error of the crane, the monks and Taoists of the Tang Dynasty all claimed to be poor Taoist, this Tao is the Tao of the Tao and the Tao, but it is a self-humble word for what they have not learned, see Taiping Guangji Youyang Miscellaneous Tales and other books for details).
"Oh?" Lu Zhe raised his head and saw a monk with a fat head and big ears who looked like Maitreya Buddha, wearing a wide robe common to monks, riding on a tall horse, greeting everyone with a smile.
Yu Wenyin and the other Xuanyi lieutenants were silent, and only looked at the monk with vigilant eyes.
"The master is on his own, we still have important matters, and we dare not delay the master's trip." Seeing that everyone didn't speak, and all the Xuanyi lieutenants looked at him, Lu Zhe had to open his mouth to refuse.
"The road is facing the sky, you and I are doing our own thing." Hearing Lu Zhe's words, Yu Wenyin nodded secretly, and then spoke.
"It should be so, but I am a little lonely, and I want to talk with everyone and relieve my loneliness. Since it is inconvenient for everyone to go to the road. The monk was not annoyed, smiled and saluted, and rode away on his own horse.
The two sides saluted again, and after Lu Zhe said sorry, the group continued to walk forward, and the monk also walked along the official road by himself.
But the strange thing is that the monk always falls on Lu Zhe and his party, Lu Zhe and they are slow, he is also slow, Lu Zhe is fast, he is also fast, and the meaning of wanting to go with him is quite obvious. And soon got into a mess with the Xuanyi lieutenants in front, and several people laughed from time to time in front, praising the master for being funny.
Although Lu Zhe was a little concerned about the monk's strange behavior, he couldn't interfere, everyone can walk in this official way, you can't let others be faster or slower.
"Why is Xiao Tanyue so cold, you must know that the road is long, and it is also a beautiful thing to talk to people." At noon, when they stopped to rest, the monk who claimed to be Zhitong came over to talk, and Lu Zhedu hurriedly passed over.
"A predecessor once said to a certain person that walking between the rivers and lakes, monks, Taoists, women and children are all difficult to provoke." Lu Zhe felt more and more that this monk was wrong, and coldly ridiculed him.
"Hahahaha, this man is also a wonderful person." The fat monk laughed, "Xiao Langjun is a group of people, there are Taoists, children, women, plus a monk, wouldn't it be together?" ”
