Dehua County is located in the southwest of the national capital of Zhao State, about more than a thousand miles away from the national capital, and there are many mountains and uneven places in Zhao State.

On a hot summer day, in order to escape the heat, the departure time of the post station was also delayed to Shen Shi, Zhong Xingyue took off the cloak she wore when she was in the city, and only wore a gray robe, which she bought in a small ready-to-wear shop, in order to pretend to be poor, she specially bought other people's old clothes, which were fat and fat, and it became more and more skinny that the people in the clothes were skinny.

When she arrived at the station, there were already several people waiting inside.

In the crowded small house, there are two boxy Eight Immortal Tables, at this time there are two people sitting on the Eight Immortals Table, one side is four men with rough eyebrows, hot weather, they unbuttoned the chest of their shirts, revealing the slightly black chest inside, and there are three people on the other side, their clothes are obviously dignified, at this time they are bored swallowing melon seeds, when they see Zhong Xingyue coming in, they all looked over, and after finding that it was just a poor girl, they retracted their gaze.

Zhong Xingyue touched her nose, she was just an ordinary little girl, and she walked to the corner of the room very self-consciously, where there were a few small wooden stools that could allow her to sit down and rest for a while.

On the way here, she exchanged five spirit stones for fifty spirit beads, of which ten spirit beads were spent on clothes and dry food, and the remaining forty spirit beads were put in the money bag hanging on her waist.

The remaining ninety-five spirit stones, she hid them separately, some of them were placed in the old clothes in the baggage, some of them were put in her arms, and some of them were stuffed in the upper cloth of her boots.

Not long after Zhong Xingyue came in, three more people came in, this is a family of three, the man is in his thirties, the woman is in her twenties, the two of them led a little boy of five or six years old, and when they saw that there was no place to sit in the house, they also walked over to Zhong Xingyue.

Everyone in the Guangwu Continent practices martial arts, but those who have some qualifications are working hard to cultivate immortals, and the rest of those who are not qualified practice secular martial arts, so no matter where they are, people over the age of ten will always carry a sword or a knife, and the couple each has a somewhat worn long sword on their backs, Zhong Xingyue hurriedly gave up a seat and asked them to sit down too.

"Thank you. The woman said to Zhong Xingyue

"It's okay, this stool is long enough to seat the four of us. Zhong Xingyue said with a smile

"Little sister, where are you going?" asked the little boy sitting between the couple curiously, tilting his head

Children love to play with children, Zhong Xingyue is not big, and the little boy is very curious when he sees her.

"Go to Fucheng. Zhong Xingyue pinched his fleshy little face and replied

"Ah, I'm also going to Fucheng, just by the way, young lady, I have pastries here, do you want to eat them?" The little boy said, and took out an oiled paper bag from the small backpack on his shoulder, opened the oiled paper bag, and there were four or five mung bean cakes lying inside, but this mung bean cake was put in the backpack by him, and it was already a little deformed.

Zhong Xingyue swallowed her saliva, and said, she really hadn't eaten these children's snacks for a long time, but when she looked up at the little boy, she still refused.

"Sister is full, not hungry, you can eat by yourself, good. ”

This family of three doesn't seem to be rich, and if she wants to buy a few pieces of mung bean cake for her child to satisfy her hunger, she already spoils her child, and she can't rob others anymore.

"Oh, okay. The little boy was a little disappointed, and he wrapped the pastry again and put it in his backpack.

Zhong Xingyue blinked, it turned out that this child was specially taken out for her to eat.

After a long time, the sound of horses was heard outside, and the people in the house immediately gathered their things and walked outside.

This is the first time Zhong Xingyue has gone far away, so it is the first time to see this kind of carriage at the post station, three tall long-horned horses with reins, and a bulky wooden carriage behind them, and several people have gotten on the carriage under the command of the groom who is rushing the car.

The space in the carriage is not very large, eleven people are a little crowded sitting inside, Zhong Xingyue is sitting at the back of the door, she carefully grasps the door bolt, for fear that she will fall down accidentally.

In these years, the rich people drove their own carriages, those who cultivated a little higher could fly with their own swords, and those who came to the post station to take a carriage were the only ones who were poor and not very high, and everyone was crowded together, and it was inevitable to envy others.

"Little sister, what are you doing in Fucheng? I'm going to see my aunt, this is my first time going out, I'm so happy. The little boy sat next to her and kept talking to her.

"It's also my first time going out, and I'm very happy. Zhong Xingyue didn't say where she was going.

"When I grow up to be my sister's age, I'll go out by myself. ”

Zhong Xingyue touched his head with a smile when she heard this, "Okay, you are so brave, you must be a little hero when you grow up." ”

Dehua County is not far from Yuanshoufu, Shen Shi set off, if you don't stop hurrying at night, you can arrive at Fucheng early the next morning, during this period, everyone wants to sleep in the carriage like this, Zhong Xingyue is a girl, she saw that everyone else was sleeping, but she still beat her spirit and didn't let herself fall asleep.

On the one hand, she doesn't know if it's safe at night, so she has to be cautious, and on the other hand, she can't sleep when she sits with such bumps.

Soon, there was a sound of snoring coming from the carriage, and the men were sleeping soundly with their heads tilted back and their mouths open.

In the middle of the night, Zhong Xingyue's eyelids also began to heavily, and although she tried hard to open her eyes, she still couldn't control her body's reactions.

Just when she was half asleep, the carriage suddenly shook violently, and in an instant, the entire carriage was torn apart, and Zhong Xingyue, who was leaning against the door, opened her eyes instantly, however, her reaction was still slow, and a huge momentum struck, and her whole person was hit hard by a cracked wooden plank.

This is a mountain path, the road is rugged and broken stones, on both sides are jagged dense forests, Zhong Xingyue hit a big tree, fell to the ground heavily, the white light flashed in front of his eyes, the little boy also fell next to her, after all, it was just a child, this fall, and cried.
