Chapter 178: Farewell

It had taken them two days to recuperate, and in order to catch up with Cao Rou and them as soon as possible, after seeing Wu Ying, they hurriedly prepared a carriage to catch up. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Four brand-new carriages were parked under the circular mountain road in Erlang County.

The people of Ye Cheng stood behind the carriage, facing the people led by Wu Ying.

"Brother Wu, aren't you going with us?" Bai Yingping looked at Wu Ying and asked with a solemn expression. Wu Ying helped them a lot, Bai Yingping gradually regarded Wu Ying as a trusted relative, and now that she was going to separate, she was naturally a little reluctant in her heart.

Wu Ying replied with a smile, "We broke into the strange building that day and stole the news when we were already discovered by the soldiers of the Heavenly Ancient Kingdom, so in order not to cause you trouble, it is better for us not to go with you." But don't worry, I will let Lord He Xiang secretly protect you."

"Shopkeeper Wu, may I ask why you call yourself a sage?" Ye Cheng asked tentatively with a puzzled expression. There was another meaning in his question, he wanted to know from Wu Ying's mouth whether the sage was good or bad.

Although Wu Ying helped them a lot, he knew very little about the sage, and Ye Cheng vaguely felt in his heart that the sage was not as simple as they knew it now.

Those strong men in the gambling hall who easily knocked them down were so scared that they didn't dare to fight back when they saw that it was a sage, which undoubtedly increased Ye Cheng's curiosity and suspicion about sages.

Wu Ying's eyes stared at Ye Cheng, hesitated for a while, and then said unhurriedly, "For the sake of the common people in the world."

Wu Ying's answer was very vague, as if he said it on purpose.

For the sake of the common people in the world is for the people of the world, Wu Ying said this symbolically to show that they are good people.

But Ye Cheng noticed Wu Ying's hesitation, it was actually for the sake of the world, so why hesitate?

This made Ye Cheng feel even more strange about Wu Ying, but now was not the time to break the sand pot and ask to the end, he still had urgent things to complete, and Wu Ying could still help.

In order not to let Wu Ying notice anything wrong, Ye Cheng hurriedly smiled and said perfunctorily, "It's really their blessing that the people in the world can have you sages." If we need to be used in the future, as long as it is for the people of the world, we will do our best to help."

"Then I'll thank you all for the people of the world," Wu Ying bowed in thanks, and then he straightened up and urged a little, "Let's get on the road quickly, we should be able to reach Lei Jue County before dark."

Wu Ying was in a trance, and then admonished, "By the way, I think you know the current situation in the Heavenly Ancient Kingdom. The county towns of the Tiangu Kingdom are built on the mountains, and the status of the people of the Tiangu Kingdom is determined by the location of the mountain they live in, the higher the status, the shorter the residence, the lower the status."

Wu Ying stared at Ye Cheng with a pair of stern eyes and continued, "If you see someone being bullied in the county town, don't interfere, just avoid it."

When Ye Cheng heard this, he was immediately a little surprised! Just now, Wu Ying also said that for the sake of the common people in the world, he actually knew that the people of the Tiangu Kingdom were trapped in unequal treatment, why didn't he take action?

Aren't sages for the sake of the world?

Ye Cheng was a little angry in his heart, but he still maintained a calm expression, bowed to Wu Ying and said, "Thank you Shopkeeper Wu for reminding us, we will pay attention, then we will go first" After speaking, he turned around and walked to the first carriage in front.

Then the rest of the people thanked Wu Ying one by one, turned around and walked back to the carriage.

The four carriages quickly galloped away in the ice and snow, and the carriages gradually disappeared into the wind and snow.

The weak scholar looked at the direction of the carriage beside Wu Ying and said, "Do you believe what he said? ”

Wu Ying also looked at the direction of the carriage, and said with a smile, "I don't believe it, he is not the kind of person who will see the weak being bullied and stand by."

"So what to do?" The weak scholar asked.

Wu Ying said lightly, "You can follow quickly, just give some help at a critical time, but don't let them delay on the road for too long" The corners of Wu Ying's mouth raised slightly, revealing a smile that seemed to be evil and good, and continued, "They have to hurry up to Tianyun and come into contact with strange buildings"

..............

It's approaching evening.

It was getting dark, and the air outside the carriage was getting colder. The sides of the carriage were already covered with a thick layer of frost, and in order for the horses to take everyone to Tianyun safely, they all dressed the four horses, and a thick layer of cotton clothes was wrapped around the horse's belly.

"Eighth brother, come out and take a look, it should be Lei Jue County in front" Zhu Zi'an shouted outside the car curtain, his body was trembling slightly at this time, and Zhu Zi'an's strong body gradually couldn't withstand it in such a cold weather.

Ye Cheng leaned his back against the corner of the carriage, and Xia Meng and the two of them wrapped themselves in a quilt. He was still wearing a thick black-and-gray robe, but his body was thin and fat, so he still felt cold.

Ye Cheng got up slowly and said to himself, "How long will such a cold weather last?" ”

Zhu Zi lived in the back of the carriage and the two thieves nested in a big quilt, and when he heard Ye Cheng's words, he explained, "I think it shouldn't be cold for long, and after the New Year, the temperature will rise."

"New Year?" Ye Cheng turned his head to look at the inside of the carriage, looking thoughtful. New Year's is a time for the whole family to reunite, but he has grown so big that he is alone every year. I thought that there would be a special person to accompany me this year, but I was amazed by the wonderful journey to this strange ancient world.

Ye Cheng shook his head and smiled, laughing at the world for being unfair.

Ye Cheng rolled over the curtain and stuck his head out and looked at the front of the carriage. In the dim front, a high mountain appeared, half a cut higher than the previous Fengshen County.

Bonfires blaze around the mountain, illuminating the mountain trail. In the carriage, you can also faintly see the road surface of the mountain road around the mountain.

The carriage is getting closer and closer to the circular mountain road up the mountain.

At this time, two tall stone statues appeared in front, and the stone statues stood on both sides of the mountain crossing.

The stone statue holds a hammer in its left hand and a nail in its right hand, and against the backdrop of the bonfire, you can see the facial features of the stone statue, the sharp-beaked monkey gills, some of which resemble the image of the god of thunder that appeared in mythology.

Seeing these two stone statues, and having already learned the name of the county seat, Ye Cheng said with great certainty, "Brother Zi'an, this is Lei Jue County." It's too cold outside at night, let's go up quickly, find a tavern to warm up, and continue to chase Cao Rou and them tomorrow."

"Good" sons put on the horse rope to "drive"

The carriage drove quickly up the circular mountain road and continued upward.

There was no one on the crater, only white snow, which reflected the fiery red under the bonfire.

Both sides of the circular mountain road, like Fengshen County, are densely packed with thatched houses. Then go up, and when you are almost halfway up the mountain, the thatched hut disappears, and a palace-style building appears.

But I never saw a palace-style building with a tavern, so I continued to walk up.

Suddenly, a two-story palace-style building appeared in front of it, the building was brightly lit, and the door said "Lei Heng Tavern"

Ye Cheng pointed to the front and said, "Brother Zi'an, there is a tavern in front."
