Chapter 230 departs from East County
Because many people in Dongxian County came to Pengzhou City to complain, the Mu Governor's Mansion decided to go to Dongxian County to investigate the people's situation, and left Master Wang to cooperate with a group of officials in the government to take charge of affairs.
Since he was planning to make an unannounced visit, it was not appropriate to bring many people, so he decided to only bring Xiao Qi and his son Mu Ziqi and Xiao Amo.
On the fifth day of the eighth month, the four of them drove to Dongxian in a carriage.
In order to hide people's eyes, the clothes worn by the four of them are also ordinary fabrics.
The little guy Ah Mo is very useful, and he wears many hats, not only to serve tea and water to the masters, but also to drive the carriage.
Two hours later, the carriage traveled to the foot of a mountain in Dongxian County.
Because the weather was too hot, several people in the carriage came down to blow the wind, Xiao Qi picked the half-human-high weeds on the side of the road and made them into rings, and Mu Ziqi picked a lot of wild flowers and inserted them into the rings to make a wreath.
Xiao Qi put the wreath on Mu Ziqi's head: "You are the most beautiful, this is for you." ”
Mu Ziqi took it down and put it on Xiao Qi's head: "You are the only girl among us, and you should wear it for you." ”
Ah Mo had already completed a wreath alone and handed it to Mu Ziqing: "Young master, why bother pushing it around, I have another one here, take it quickly, you just have one for each person." ”
Mu Ziqi threw the garland handed by Ah Mo to the ground, "It's boring, it's not early, let's get in the carriage and set off." ”
Ah Mo drove the carriage for a long time, and suddenly stopped and shouted, "Young master, come out quickly." ”
Xiao Qi and Mu Ziqi jumped out of the carriage when they heard the sound.
Mu Ziqi: "What's the matter, what a fuss." ”
Ah Mo pointed to the garland on the ground: "Young master, this is the garland I made, you just threw it on the ground." Young master, are we encountering a ghost hitting the wall? ”
Mu Zichen picked up the garland and looked at it twice, then threw it back to the ground, "I can't tell if you did it, maybe someone else did it when they passed by." ”
Mu Zhifu lifted the curtain and said, "Isn't it only at night that ghosts hit the wall?" It's daylight. Don't fool around, hurry up and get in the carriage and hurry,"
The carriage walked for a while, and Ah Mo called Mu Ziqi out of the carriage again, pointed to the garland on the ground and said, "Young master, look, this is the wreath I made, we have passed by here for the third time today, it may really be a ghost hitting the wall." ”
Xiao Qi jumped out of the carriage, and saw that there were lush trees on both sides of the road, and they all looked similar, not easy to identify, and the hills next to him were normal to look at, why was Ah Mo said that it was a ghost hitting the wall?
She walked to the tree, took out her dagger and carved a circle.
Seeing this, Mu Ziqi didn't say much, tore a strip of white cloth from his sleeve and tied it next to the circle, and said with a smile: "This will be more eye-catching and more recognizable, let's go, Amo, let's continue walking." ”
Then several people jumped into the carriage and set off, and after a while, Ah Mo exclaimed again: "Young master, your strips of cloth and my garland." ”
Xiao Qi and Mu Zixi jumped out of the car, and sure enough, they saw a circle drawn on the tree on the side, with strips of cloth tied to it.
The flowers on the ground still lie there like that, and although the wildflowers are beautiful and beautiful, they look like poisonous snakes in their eyes.
Xiao Qi took off the strip of cloth, compared it to Mu Ziqi's sleeve, and nodded, "That's right, it's the one on your sleeve." ”
Mu Ziqi glanced at the garland on the ground, does this still need to be compared? It's clear they're going in circles.
Mu Zhifu came out of the car window and said to a few people: "What's going on?" The sun is in the middle of the day, and it won't be dark before it gets to Dongxian. ”
Xiao Qi asked, "Mu Zishan, when you were in Tiger Roaring Mountain, didn't you say that you read a lot of books on Qimen Mathematics?" Can you see the doorway? ”
Mu Zichen: "I'll study it first. ”
As a result, Mu Ziqi stood in place and looked at it for a long time and didn't see the doorway, so he said to Ah Mo: "I see two forked paths in front, let's try another path." ”
As the carriage approached, it found that the two paths were a little strange.
One path was full of stones, the other was full of water.
Amo: "Young Master, which one shall we choose?" ”
Mu Zixi: "If I had to choose, I would naturally choose the gravel road, because you don't know if there is a pit under the water, and if there is a big pit sinking into it, it will be troublesome." Xiao Qi, which one do you say first? ”
"I don't want to choose either, but let the Mu Governor, who can call the shots, choose this matter." Xiao Qi looked at the two trails, and his intuition was not easy to walk.
Mu Zhifu jumped out of the car with a book in his hand, and looked like a middle-aged scholar.
Seeing that the other three were all looking at him, Mu Zhifu said, "How is it?" This looks pretty good, isn't it? ”
Xiao Qi finally knew why Mu Zichen was so stinky and beautiful, it turned out to be genetic.
Mu Zhifu walked to the two small forks and said very bluntly: "You don't need to ask me at all, it's so obvious, the waterway must not be walked, what if there is a big puddle in it?" ”
Sure enough, it is worthy of father and son, and they all have the same idea.
Ah Mo drove the carriage up the gravel road, and after walking for a while, he stopped again.
Mu Zixi jumped out of the carriage, "What's the matter, Amo, why didn't you leave again?" ”
Xiao Qi also jumped out of the carriage, is it going around in circles like just now? Glancing around, it's okay, the surrounding scenery is different from just now.
Ah Mo made a bitter face, young master, the wheels are broken.
Xiao Qi checked it, not only the wheels were broken, but even the axles were cracked. It is not a big problem for her and Mu Ziqi to know martial arts, and Mu Zhifu is afraid that he will be seriously injured.
The car broke down like this, there was no way to use it anymore, and several people had to get out of the car and walk, except for Mu Zhifu, the other three were carrying a big burden.
Xiao Qi didn't forget to untie the horse from the carriage and lead it.
After walking a short distance, Mu Zhifu shouted that it would not work.
Xiao Qi: "Master Mu, why don't you ride on a horse." ”
Master Mu hurriedly waved his hand: "I am most afraid of riding a horse in my life." ”
Mu Ziqi pushed Mu Zhifu onto the horse, "Dad, sit down quickly and be careful of falling down." ”
Mu Zhifu immediately closed his eyes and slid down, and Mu Zishan hurriedly caught him.
Ah Mo covered his mouth and snickered on the side, the old man is really funny.
Mu Zhifu glared at his youngest son and said, "Let's rest first before we walk." ”
Xiao Qi's stomach was already grumbling with hunger, so he sat down on the ground and opened the baggage, which contained four large cakes.
Xiao Qi gave one to everyone with a distressed face, and then started eating by himself.
Eating is very important to her because she eats a lot and gets hungry fast.
When he set off, Mu Zhifu didn't let him bring dry food, he felt that the cake with dry residue was nothing to gnaw, and Dongxian was not far away, so he thought that he would be able to reach Dongxian soon to eat.
Each person brought a bag of water.
August is still very hot and water evaporates quickly, so water is more important than dry food.
After eating the bread, several people drank the water in the water bladder.
After the water bladder of the Mu Governor's Mansion was drunk, he robbed his son's, and soon the water was drunk.
