Chapter 209: Drawing Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron 2

The sky in the town also dawned, and Poplar and King Xiaoyao left the town with the horse convoy on the Xiling Continent.

"Little lady, you still have to go to the border to find your father. But there are hundreds of miles to go, and you don't have a carriage? The Xiling guard asked.

"Brother Guard, my husband and I have a little bit of kung fu, so if you are really tired, you can buy a horse to ride."

"That's really troublesome, why don't you take our carriage and go. You don't have to give us much money, just give us a full meal. The head of the guard laughed.

"Brother Guard, you're joking, aren't you? No matter how few of you are, there must be dozens of people, and my husband and I will not go bankrupt even if you are full. Besides, you are still hungry when you have food on your carriage? Poplar replied with a smile.

"Little lady, you can't say that. Not a single grain of grain on the carriage is missing, and we have to transport it back to the Xiling Continent. It's spring here again, and you can grow grain. We are there in the season when food is most scarce. The Xiling Continent is poor, and people starve to death every year. ”

"Brother Guard, Mrs. Ben asked you about the spirit beasts pulling the cart yesterday. If it is a cart pulled by a spirit beast, we can still do it, you see that these horses are already very difficult, wouldn't it be more tiring for two people to sit on it? ”

"The little lady is kind-hearted, and those spirit beasts have been asked to go back by the people on the Beiling Continent. said that it was left for Montan as a dowry. ”

"Why? If it is a dowry, it should also be left to your lady. Poplar said with a very unjust look.

"Who called people stronger than us, those were originally half sold and half given to us by the people of the Beiling Mainland. When we get to the local area, people want to go back, and we don't have the ability to stay. That kind of spirit beast is not easy to feed in your Dayan country, those are all cold species, and the climate here is too mild. A guard next to him said a little unwillingly.

It seems that you are also ordinary people in the capital, and the dowry list should be recorded on it. Hey, that's not something we worry about. Let's go with us without any hurry. The head of the guard invited.

"Well, I happened to have a talking companion along the way. When we get to the shoreline, if we can't find our father. We'd like to go with you to the three main roads. "Poplar gave them a good amount of advance.

"No problem, every time there are people who take our boat to the other side of the sea. But it takes a lot of silver.

Several times a year, our boats come and go to buy food from the fishing villages. Otherwise, where will the money come from to build a big ship? Daily maintenance also requires silver. ”

Poplar and King Xiaoyao followed the carriage and chatted with the guards of Xiling as they walked. Bai Yang translated the Xiling dialect to the King of Xiaoyao.

"Yang'er, the border is too far away from us. The court didn't know anything about what was going on there. ”

"Husband, it's not the distance that is far away, it's our mentality." Baiyang's words silenced the King of Xiaoyao, and the emperor and the Manchu officials all looked at the tributary of the small vassal states once every five years. The coastline is the same as the forbidden streets in the inner city, and the people of the small vassal countries will strengthen their patrols and security when they come. When they left, they were all left with their own family. Don't you know that people have long been not satisfied with the exchange of goods once every five years. I have to go all the way to the capital, and people can get food at their own doorstep. Maybe you don't have to spend money, so why not.

Poplar and King Joy are both thinking about the same problem. If the matter of the border line is not mentioned in the important matters of the imperial court, it will not be taken seriously. Perhaps the next five years will not be the tributary ranks, but the hungry wolves that bite people to death.

At the front of the carriage procession were several slightly luxurious carriages, which were ridden by the envoys of the Xiling Continent. The carriage behind was a little lighter, and Poplar and King Loose slowly fell behind. Because Poplar's consciousness had sensed the movement of the sky eagle flying from the clouds in this direction.

"Little lady, it's better for you to go to the back. The carriage in the back pulls all the feed we prepared for the spirit beasts. Now that the spirit beast is gone, the feed can be exchanged for some silver. ”

"Thank you then."

Poplar and the Easy King sat in the last carriage. The one who drove the car was a farmer from the Great Yan Kingdom. Seeing the little couple of Poplar and King Xiaoyao, I couldn't help but smile and say a word.

"What do these spirit beasts eat? Stinky along the way, if not to make more money. I'm not going to give them that kind of car either. ”

"Uncle, don't you know what it is by looking at it?"

"Little lady, who wants to see it when it smells so bad? But send them to the seashore, and I will go home with the money. After speaking, the old man who was driving the car leaned on the carriage and closed his eyes to recuperate, and Bai Yang raised his hand, and the faint powder foam blew to the front with the wind. The drivers of the next few cars fell asleep sweetly. The horse pulling the cart still slowly followed the convoy in front. At this time, two Skyhawks, one large and one small, circled behind the carriage procession.

Poplar took out a bamboo whistle and put it to his mouth and blew it. The two Aquilas landed on the carriage.

"You're back? Do you have a reply to us? Poplar looked at the big Aquila and asked.

"Quack, quack." The Great Aquila screamed twice.

"How are the people over there? This is your child. Poplar asked again as if chatting with someone.

"Quack, quack."

The King of Joy watched from the side, and his heart was extremely strange. When did his princess still understand bird language?

As he spoke, Poplar placed two white pills in the palm of his hand.

"Eat it, this is a divine pill to replenish your strength."

"Quack, quack."

"You mean you like to eat the stuff in the wagon, too. Don't worry, wait until the princess reads the letter. ”

"Quack, quack." As if he could fully understand Aspen's words, Aquila stretched out a leg, and the small bamboo tube was still tied to the leg.

The bamboo tube is the same, but the content of the letters inside is different. There are two letters, one written by the emperor and the other written by the poison honor. The husband and wife quickly finished reading it, and they also had a proposition in their hearts.

"Yang'er, can these two Sky Eagles go back immediately? Will it be very tiring and need to rest for two days. ”

"Husband, they are creatures that fly in the sky. You want to send the news of the spirit beast back, right? ”

"Yang'er, the two of us really have a good understanding. The contents of Montan's dowry list are known only to the crown prince. There were also carts pulled by spirit beasts in the past tribute, and there were no more spirit beasts left when I went back. Most of them died because they did not adapt to the climate of the Great Yan Kingdom. We didn't take any of this seriously, and now that I think about it, it's always unsettling. ”

"Yes, spirit beasts are many times stronger than horses in terms of size and ability. If the spirit beast has a foothold in the Great Yan Kingdom, then our horses will also become puppies. ”

"Yang'er, I don't think it's possible. Those spirit beasts can't adapt to the climate of our Great Yan Kingdom. ”

"Husband, how many five years have passed. People have become ambitious from generation to generation, and how can spirit beasts not evolve. Although the two eagles did not need to recuperate, they had to be fed and drunk before leaving. ”

"Quack, quack." The two Aquils cried a few more times in great cheerfulness. The King of Joy couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"It's all quack, quack, and it's all quack. You can also understand the difference between them. ”

"Husband, it's like learning to meow when you are in contact with each other. It's not all meow meow, and the concubine can't understand it. ”

"Also, don't look at only meow meow. Tone, tone, spacing. But it is the basis for us to judge the meaning of the other party. Birds have bird language, and beasts have animal language, all of which are a kind of knowledge and ability. My princess is the best. ”

"Husband, are you sour? Quickly help me get out of the way a little bit, and steal some feed for the spirit beasts to improve the food for the Skyhawks. ”

"This physical work is for the husband." As he spoke, the King took out a short knife and pried open a piece of the wall of the carriage, and a fishy smell rushed out.

"Poisonous, not poisonous."

"It's not poisonous, it's the smell of carrion mixed with other substances. really responded to that sentence, there is no intention to plant flowers and flowers, and there is no intention to plant willows and willows. Figuring out the formula of the spirit beast's feed is equivalent to choking the lifeblood of the spirit beast's throat. ”

"It's really a good thing, we sent the news of the spirit beast back to our father along with the feed formula of the spirit beast. As long as you find a place for spirit beasts to keep them, what else is there to worry about? ”

"Concubine Ben thinks it's best to leave this matter to the four princes. You can also ask him to make a small contribution to the court. ”

"Yang'er, we want to go together again, and Sister Ling can also guide Ling Wei and Ling Ling behind her back, and get twice the result with half the effort."

The couple smiled at each other as they spoke, and the two Sky Eagles on one side had already eaten a piece of spirit animal feed.

"Quack, quack."

"Okay, you come back in the evening, and this princess will ask you to send a letter back."

"Quack, quack." Two eagles chirped and flew into the clouds.

"Yang'er, these two Sky Eagles have become our royal communication tools. They quack, you can really understand the meaning. ”

"Husband, just like you can distinguish the meow of a meow. I can fully understand that quacks can't do it, and I can tell if they're happy to obey or disagree. "What Bai Yang said is somewhat perfunctory, and he can't tell the prince about the cheating space yet. It's not that you don't trust him, it's too unbelievable.

The soul is reborn through another world, which cannot be explained by modern science. It is the best ending to put it in this dynasty and not be killed as a monster.

Let's not talk about it for now.
