Chapter 64: The Road Meets the Convoy
The cold wind was bleak, and Feng Anjin's small body shivered involuntarily.
Xu Muchuan felt Feng Anjin's movements, chuckled lightly, and took off his coat and draped it on Feng Anjin's body.
"Teacher, Xiaofeng doesn't need it, you better put it on!" Feng Anjin looked up at Xu Muchuan, his little face was frozen pink and tender.
Xu Muchuan touched Feng Anjin's head, and said softly: "The teacher is not cold, you put it on, don't drop your clothes on the ground and get dirty." ”
"Well, Xiaofeng knows." Feng Anjin hesitated for a moment and nodded his head heavily.
Xu Muchuan exhaled hot air and looked around.
Now there are layers of snow on both sides of the mountain road, and you can step on a five-centimeter depth footprint when you step on it.
"Xiaofeng, there's a wider road over there, let's go over." Xu Muchuan glanced at it from a distance and found a four-meter-wide avenue.
Feng Anjin jumped hard, but because he was too young and not tall enough, he couldn't see the big road Xu Muchuan said at all: "Teacher, why can't Xiaofeng see it?" ”
"You! Walk past a few and see it. Xu Muchuan rarely saw Feng Anjin's childlike appearance, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In the past, Feng Anjin rarely had anything to say to Xu Muchuan, but with the further run-in of the relationship between the two, Feng Anjin no longer had any reservations about Xu Muchuan.
For outsiders, Feng Anjin completely showed a resolute and indifferent look, which was not in line with his eight-year-old mind at all.
However, when Xu Muchuan thought of the tragic things that Feng Anjin had experienced, he knew how precious Feng Anjin's childlike nature was at this time.
"Well, let's go over and have a look!" Feng Anjin was wearing Xu Muchuan's coat and robe, and the whole person looked a little bloated, but the pink and carved face added a bit of cuteness to Feng Anjin.
A quarter of an hour later, Xu Muchuan led Feng Anjin from the mountain road to the top of this spacious avenue. Behind Xu Muchuan and Feng Anjin, there were also two lines of deep footprints.
"Xiaofeng, let's go this way!" Xu Muchuan looked around left and right for a while, and then confirmed the direction.
Feng Anjin doesn't know anything now, as long as it is something that Xu Muchuan decides, Feng Anjin follows closely without asking any reason: "Okay." ”
The direction chosen by Xu Muchuan is naturally getting farther and farther away from the capital, and the other direction must be directly to the capital!
The capital is a pool of muddy water, Xu Muchuan really doesn't want to go in and fight with others, that kind of day is really unbearable.
If you really want to find a reason for Xu Muchuan to go to the capital, it should be to see Jun Luo's death and pay tribute to Ximenxiong.
As time passed, the snow that had been scattered gradually stopped.
The trees on both sides of the road are shrouded in snow-white, and thousands of miles of rivers and mountains have become a world covered in silver.
Xu Muchuan and Feng Anjin stepped on the snow, making "squeak" and "creaking" sounds from time to time, and always left a string of beautiful footprints behind them.
The cold wind gently blew through Xu Muchuan's neck, making him suddenly feel the cold wind to his bones. And because of the breeze, the snow that stayed on the branches of the trees fell "in a rustle", and the jade-like snow powder danced lightly in the wind.
"In two hours, it will be dark. It stands to reason that there should be a village or inn in front of it. Xu Muchuan glanced at the endless road, rubbed his hands, and let out a hot breath.
"Teacher, listen quickly, what sound does it seem to be?" Suddenly, Feng Anjin hurriedly spoke, and his face immediately showed a vigilant and abnormal look.
Xu Muchuan immediately concentrated on finding the source of the sound: "What sound?" ”
After a while, the sound grew louder and clearer.
"Stuck erase...... Card Wipe ...... Card Rub ......"
The sound of the wheels rolling in the snow made Xu Muchuan alert for a while.
Xu Muchuan immediately turned to look at the back, he could already hear clearly what the sound was coming from: "It seems to be the sound of a carriage." ”
"Stuck erase...... Card Rub ......"
The sound was getting louder and closer, and the first carriage appeared in front of Xu Muchuan's eyes in the blink of an eye.
A brown-red horse and an extremely delicate carriage made of wood met the eyes of Xu Muchuan and Feng Anjin. Behind this carriage were several extraordinarily decorated carriages.
"Phew!" The coachman, who was driving the horse, saw two men standing directly in front of the road, and he quickly dragged the reins of the horses.
Xu Muchuan thought about it, and didn't know how far the road ahead was, so let's see if I could take a ride.
"This big brother, seeing that the sky is about to darken, can you let us take a ride? Piggyback on us for a while? Xu Muchuan immediately stepped forward and said politely with a fist.
The coachman looked at Xu Muchuan carefully, and when he was about to speak, a calm middle-aged male voice came from inside the carriage: "What's wrong?" ”
"Master, two people said it was getting late and wanted a ride, you see?" The coachman turned his head directly and said respectfully in the direction of the carriage.
After a quiet moment, the middle-aged man's calm voice continued to come from inside the carriage: "If it's not some gangsters like rogues, let them sit in the grocery carriage at the back." ”
"Hey! The two of them looked like ordinary people, one was only about seven or eight years old, and the other was supposed to be a scholar. The coachman continued.
"Well, let them sit in the back, and it's okay to take them for a while." At this time, the voice coming from the carriage was not the middle-aged man just now, but a relatively crisp daughter's voice.
"Yes, miss." The coachman said immediately with a smile on his face.
Xu Muchuan stood in the middle of the road, and Feng Anjin was also close to Xu Muchuan's side, and the two of them could naturally hear the conversation between the coachman and his master's family clearly.
It is also lucky to be able to meet a convoy in this strange place.
"Thank you." Xu Muchuan immediately bowed slightly and clenched his fists and said, this should still have the number of courtesies.
The coachman chuckled and nodded, "You two will sit in the two carriages behind!" Hurry up, it's not early, let's go to Cloud City early. ”
"Okay, I'm tired." So, Xu Muchuan pulled Feng Anjin and sat in the two carriages behind.
Although the carriage in the back has a lot of miscellaneous items, it is also relatively spacious. Xu Muchuan and Feng Anjin were still relatively comfortable sitting inside, not crowded at all.
"Drive!"
After Xu Muchuan and the two got into the car, several coachmen immediately flicked their whips at the horses.
"Hui'er Hui'er ......"
The horses were chirping, and several carriages began to move quickly along the road in an instant.
