Ziyan saw that Qing Xuan was scolding and didn't bother to continue arguing with her, glanced at the coachman again, and withdrew the sword from the scabbard, "Look further, the landlord will go to the martial arts conference this time, and he should not come back in a short time, at this time, you must not let that kid go to Nanming." ”

After that, the two of them did not delay for a moment, and jumped on the branch of the tree to find the mountain path in front of them, and the coachman saw that the people were far away, and he was relieved, and opened the curtain to ask her, "Girl, are you alright?" ”

Xia Xiaoxiao pulled the blanket and wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, "Hurry up, those two may not be able to find anyone and come back." ”

"Girl, looking at those two women's kung fu seems to be good, aren't you getting into trouble with those people in the rivers and lakes?" Although the coachman is honest, but he is still a little courageous, a coachman like them who walks a long distance, occasionally encounters some robberies on the road, this kind of thing of holding a knife to the neck is not unprecedented, but at this time I can't help but be afraid, if Xia Xiaoxiao really provokes someone who shouldn't be provoked, he can't guarantee that he can continue to send Xia Xiaoxiao over the next road, after all, making money is important, and it is not important to save a small life.

Xia Xiaoxiao knew what the coachman was thinking at this time, so he started talking nonsense, and by the way, he also brought two crying, "I didn't provoke this matter, those two girls are people from the top of the mountain, I won't tell you, this time I really wanted to escape from them, just because of their heads" Xia Xiaoxiao sobbed lightly twice, "They wanted to tie me up and be their wife of the village, I didn't obey, so I escaped, he was afraid that I would go to the government, so he sent someone to chase and kill me." ”

A handful of snot and a handful of tears, he really fooled the honest coachman, and the coachman was also very sympathetic and hateful, "How dare you be so arrogant in broad daylight!" After thinking about it, it didn't seem right, "But this area is not far from the capital, and you dare to go wild like this in front of the emperor's territory?" ”

Xia Xiaoxiao choked, lay down on the car screen, and stared at the roof of the car, "Maybe it's because of the recent tension in the war between Yue Hua and Yue Guo, and the emperor can't care about these small fights under his nose." ”

Yesterday, when Qing Xuan reported to Murong Qianlian, he heard that Beigong Yu's injury didn't seem to be very optimistic, and now it was the moment when he was about to start a war with Yueguo, if he really fell like this, would he suffer a loss in this battle?

She was stunned, straightened her back and shook her head vigorously, lifted the curtains, and the cold wind came in from the outside one after another, waking her up for a few minutes, what does it matter to her whether Beigong Yu is dead or alive at this time? She has come to the present with twists and turns, and what is she thinking about what she has not done? At the moment, it is important to hurry to Nanming.

This piece of mountain road is even more difficult to walk than Xia Xiaoxiao imagined, fortunately, Qing Xuan and the others did not stop them when they went back again, and went straight to the opposite direction behind them, Xia Xiaoxiao's walk really gave them a lot of trouble, she was glad that she was witty and glad that they didn't recognize their own daughter's body, after bypassing this, Xia Xiaoxiao completely put her mind at ease in the next few days, and at this time, she didn't believe that Beigong Yu or Murong Tianlian had any other way to find herself.

Xia Xiaoxiao went out of such a far away gate for the first time, although the mountain road is difficult to walk and dry, but as long as Xia Xiaoxiao lifted the curtain and looked at the scenery outside the carriage, no matter how much boredom disappeared in an instant, there was a spring rain yesterday, the mountain road is beautiful, and the water droplets on the treetops are falling to the ground rhythmically one by one, and then soaked into the soil, take a deep breath, and the tip of the nose is full of fresh smell of soil.

Half a month's journey, they have probably walked for more than ten days, except for the other two carriages that are also in a hurry, there is nothing unusual, according to her estimates, there will be another three or four days to get to Jingzhou, no one to chase behind, Xia Xiaoxiao walked quite smoothly this way.

"Girl, seeing that our move is about to reach Jingzhou, you have to continue to Nanming next?"

The coachman raised the whip in his hand, bypassed a big rock in front of him and continued to walk bumpy, Xia Xiaoxiao was counting his remaining coils, and responded lightly, "Well, you don't have to worry about the silver, I still have enough here, this is a long journey, you are quite tired of walking, I will give you more according to the price." ”

The coachman scratched his head and said a little embarrassed, "Hehe, girl, I didn't mean that, but although I arrived in Jingzhou, the distance to Nanming was still far away, and the shopkeeper gave us regulations that the farthest from Baicha Town can only go to Jingzhou. ”

Xia Xiaoxiao was holding the silver hand for a moment, she forgot that after Beigong Yu ascended the throne, the control of these roads can be strict, and the carriage in a region can only cross two cities at most, and if she wants to enter the city, she is afraid that the government will not issue a pass, and she can't just keep walking the mountain road, after all, it is more time-saving to take the avenue anyway.

"Then I'll give you some more silver when I get to Jingzhou, this journey back will also take a lot of entanglement, I can't lose you by sending me on this trip, and you have done me a great favor."

She lifted the curtain, and the coachman was driving the horse with his back to her, and was about to pass over the fifteen taels of silver she had in her hand, but she paused halfway, and put the five taels back into her bosom, and handed ten taels to the coachman.

The coachman glanced back at her, as if he also knew her difficulties, and did not stretch out his hand to pick it up, and said with a rather honest smile, "Girl, you still keep this silver, you have also rewarded me a lot along the way, and then you need more money for a girl's family to walk so far, and I have also made money, and I can't be greedy for you to be cheap." ”

Xia Xiaoxiao didn't say much, the coachman was right, although she had a lot of entanglements in her body, but the next journey was still far away, she had to hire a carriage again when she arrived in Jingzhou, and she would have to spend a lot of money at that time, she had to plan for the next days.

"If the girl can trust me, I can introduce a post station to you when I get to Jingzhou, I know the shopkeeper there, there are not many coachmen to Nanming, but it is expensive, I should be able to reduce the cost of taking you there."

As soon as she heard that she could have a little less silver, Xia Xiaoxiao was immediately happy, and along the way, she also knew that this coachman was indeed trustworthy, and she responded directly at the moment.

Jingzhou City, which is a city with a very large population in Yuehua, is located in the middle of the country, there is no disaster and harmless all the year round, there are floods that cannot be flooded here, and there are droughts and floods that cannot be here, even if it is a war, it is rarely fought here because of being in the center, of course, unless one day the war is really urgent, but if it hits here, then Yuehua's land is estimated to be unable to be saved.

After walking in the boring mountain road for half a month, now just entering the city, seeing that the streets are densely packed with people and angry, Xia Xiaoxiao's tired heart finally has a little color, because she just arrived, she had to hire a carriage again, the coachman took her directly to the post station, and after the carriage was hired, she repaired it for two or three days before continuing to hurry, and finally arrived in the city, she had to be alone for a few days and then think about finding the matter.

Jingzhou is full of people, much less than the flow of people in the capital, and because it is in the central area, there are people from all over the country, by the way, she also inquired about what Qingxuan said about the martial arts conference that day, the martial arts conference, that is the four words she mentioned the most in those Jianghu books before! How many heroes on the rivers and lakes have to participate!

Thinking of this, the carriage suddenly stopped, and heard the coachman call to her outside, "Girl, you have arrived, come down and take a look for the time being." ”

The post station here is much bigger than the small station in Baicha Town, there are a lot of horses and carriages parked nearby, there are buying horses, renting horses, business is very good, like those who rent carriages, the coachman is waiting next to his carriage, waiting for business to come, but there are few people who are willing to run far away, but recently somehow, most people love to go far away, most of the men rent horses and buy horses directly, women can only hire carriages, there are a lot of people, the shopkeeper heard that Xia Xiaoxiao came to hire a carriage to Nanming, the smile on his face immediately became a little thicker," Girl, the road to Nanming is not close, except for the taxes required by the government, this price is probably not low."

Xia Xiaoxiao chuckled lightly on her face, listening to this person's tone, as if she was going to knock herself on it, at this time the coachman stepped forward and pulled the shopkeeper and walked two steps, as if he was helping her cut the price, Xia Xiaoxiao just went to the side to rest for a while, and not long after the coachman came back, his face was not very good-looking, Xia Xiaoxiao hurriedly asked him, "What's wrong?" The shopkeeper refuses to be less? ”

"It's not, it's just that these coachmen have been messing up the road to Nanming recently, and most of them don't want to go out of this door, and the shopkeeper doesn't ask for much, but the coachmen's asking price is not low, girl, you see."

At this time, the shopkeeper also came over, "This girl, I have also heard about you, it is indeed not easy for you to walk so far as a woman, so let's do it, I just entered a coachman here a few days ago, and the asking price is not much, but the body is a little hurried, I am afraid that the labor is not much, see what the girl thinks?" ”

Xia Xiaoxiao considered it twice, and it was okay, relying on horses and not people to get on the road, as long as the price was negotiable, everything was easy to say.

"I'm tired of the shopkeeper, I may go on the road in Jingzhou for two days, and let me know the driver in two days."

Xia Xiaoxiao paid a little deposit, and then went out of the post station, the first thing was to find an inn to sleep well, who knew that this sleep would turn the day into night.

After dusk, Jingzhou City is prosperous, and when I wake up hungry, I want to be full of good spirits and take a look at the prosperity outside the capital.

The avenues in the city are always different from the mountain roads, but the avenues are crowded with people at this time, and the streets are lined with night stalls, and the dazzling array of goods is dazzling, and those hanging lanterns pave a layer of brilliance on the bluestone street at the feet.
