It was Zhang Bao'er who was going to Qucheng on horseback, Uncle Hua was driving the car, and Ji Wen was sitting in the car. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
If it weren't for Ji Wen's lack of horseback riding, Zhang Bao'er and the others would have arrived in Qucheng a long time ago, and the carriage would have been much slower in comparison, especially on such a muddy road.
Zhang Bao'er wiped the rain on her face, and teased with a smile: "Uncle Hua, this is what people often say about gray when it's sunny and muddy when it's raining, right?" ā
"Uncle, can you still laugh when it's all over here?" Uncle Hua said angrily: "The good Luzhou doesn't wait, but I want to come to this place where the bird doesn't!" ā
"What do you mean a place where birds don't poop?" Zhang Bao'er pouted and said, "Uncle Hua, look at it, how good the air is here, which can be compared to Luzhou?" ā
Uncle Hua didn't look at it and stopped talking.
"Uncle Hua, don't you regret it?" Zhang Baoer asked.
"How could I regret it?" Uncle Hua stared at Zhang Bao'er and said, "I'm just worried about you, what if it ......"
"With Uncle Hua here, I'm not worried at all!" Zhang Bao'er said nonchalantly: "Don't forget, I used to run a dart, and my body is good!" ā
Ji Wen poked his head out of the carriage and said with a smile: "Bao'er, do you really don't understand or pretend to be confused, Uncle Hua is worried about your body and bones, he is worried that you have arrived in Qucheng, you are not familiar with life, what should you do if you are in trouble?" ā
"What is there to do?" Zhang Baoer said lightly: "Now that the matter is now, I can only take one step at a time!" ā
Ji Wen frowned and said, "Bao'er, don't be too careless, this Qucheng is not as simple as you think, you still have to grow a few more hearts!" ā
"I know that!" Zhang Bao'er knew that Ji Wen had good intentions, so he comforted him and said: "Brother Ji, don't worry, Mr. Wei, Gu Er, and Song Shenxian have gone to fight Qianzhen, and when we arrive in Qucheng and meet with them, we will naturally know some news, and then we will discuss the next step." ā
Zhang Baoer decided to go to Qucheng, Wei Xianyun took the initiative to ask Ying to go to Qucheng to help him find out the situation first.
With Wei Xianyun to touch the situation, of course Zhang Baoer is a hundred assured. However, he was worried about Wei Xianyun's safety, so he naturally couldn't let Wei Xianyun go to Qucheng alone, so he sent Wu to ward off evil spirits and take twenty masters of Fulong Island to accompany him.
Yan Gu heard the news that Zhang Bao'er was going to Qucheng, and he wanted to go with Wei Xianyun alive. Zhang Baoer originally disagreed, but in the end, Wei Xianyun spoke, saying that Yangu had his unique advantage in inquiring about the news, and Zhang Baoer had to agree.
So, Yan Gu took a dozen young beggars and set off with Wei Xianyun. These dozen teenagers are all used to by Yan Gu in Luzhou, anyway, they are also home from all over the world, and they have nothing to worry about.
What surprised Zhang Baoer the most was that Song Shenxian also got the news, and brought his son Song Langzhong to the door, so that he had to go together. Zhang Baoer didn't agree, so Song Shenxian didn't leave, chattering, saying that Zhang Baoer's words didn't count.
Zhang Bao'er quietly shouted Song Langzhong aside and complained: "Song Shenxian is so old, you don't persuade him, how can his old man withstand running around such a long way." ā
"Why didn't I persuade me, my father almost didn't beat me with a cane!" Song Langzhong said with a bitter face: "Zhang Gongzi, you just rely on him, otherwise he won't give up." Besides, there should be no problem with me serving his old man all the way! ā
Thinking of this, Zhang Baoer's heart warmed.
Seeing Zhang Bao'er smirking on the horse, Uncle Hua couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, why don't you let Miss and the island owner come to Qucheng together, and you have to keep them in Luzhou?" ā
Zhang Bao'er said: "Uncle Hua, we came to Qucheng to work hard, but we are not to enjoy the mountains and rivers, how can we take Xiaotong with them?" If they come, it will distract me, and I must look ahead and backward in doing things, so I don't let them come. Besides, Luzhou is our old nest, and there are a lot of people and things, someone has to take care of it, right? In any case, I can't cut off the back road, I don't have to worry about my father-in-law staying in Luzhou! ā
As he was talking, a dull sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from behind.
Zhang Bao'er looked back and couldn't help frowning: on such a narrow mountain road, these people didn't even slow down.
In the blink of an eye, five knights rode towards them at a gallop, without the slightest intention of slowing down. Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Baoer hurriedly pulled out the horse's head and let go to the bottom of the road.
The galloping horses roared past the carriage from the narrow space that Zhang Baoer had just conceded with the sound of the wind, and the muddy water brought up by the horses' hooves splashed Zhang Baoer's body and face, so angry that Zhang Baoer pointed at the other party's back and scolded.
"Don't bother, they're all far away, how can you hear them!" Ji Wen hurriedly beckoned: "Let's hurry up and change your clothes, you are all a clay man!" ā
Zhang Bao'er looked at the vanishing knights hatefully, snorted, and got off the horse and got into the carriage.
When it was almost dark, Zhang Baoer and his entourage could already faintly see the outline of Qujiang County.
Zhang Bao'er was about to move forward, but suddenly caught a glimpse of a small forest not far away, with five horses tied to the edge of the woods.
Zhang Bao'er stopped, staring at the five horses, not knowing what to think.
"Bao'er, when you're out of the house, it's better to have more than less!" Uncle Hua was afraid that Zhang Bao'er would cause trouble, so he hurriedly reminded: "Don't forget the explanation between Miss and the island owner before leaving, I know that you are angry in your heart, so bear with it!" ā
"That's right, it's better to have more than to go out!" Zhang Bao'er said expressionlessly: "But, Uncle Hua, these people are not good at first glance, let's go and find out their details, this is always right!" ā
"In this way, you and Jiwen are waiting for me here, and you should leave it to me to find out the details!" Uncle Hua saw that Zhang Baoer did not give up, and was afraid that he would act recklessly, so he hurriedly took the errand on himself.
Zhang Baoer knew Uncle Hua's thoughts, and did not stop him, and said with a smile: "Then please Uncle Hua!" ā
Uncle Hua nodded, and flew towards the forest.
After about half an hour, Uncle Hua came back.
"How?" Zhang Bao'er asked anxiously.
Uncle Hua glanced at Zhang Bao'er: "Uncle, I really made you predict it, these people are indeed not good!" ā
"I'm not wrong, am I?" Zhang Bao'er said triumphantly: "Uncle Hua, tell me who they are?" ā
Uncle Hua replied: "There is a mountain temple at the end of the forest in front, and those five people are talking in the mountain temple, and I eavesdropped outside for a while before I understood the reason!" ā
Seeing that Uncle Hua suddenly stopped, Zhang Bao'er urged impatiently: "Go on, Uncle Hua!" ā
