Chapter 138 Honest man
Traveling through the rivers and lakes is such a thing, depending on what kind of travel method it is.
As before, with peppercorns and fennel by his side, he could not only hold a sword, but also cook, and he was very decent when he went out.
It's good now, taking the two big men to travel around the rivers and lakes, which makes the burden on Yuanzheng's shoulders a lot heavier.
Not to mention anything else, at least this kind of travel in the rivers and lakes is a little stumbling and incomprehensible.
is also all the way to the north, the bright moon in the east is straight all the way to the north, where to go, what to do no one knows, but also makes people think.
But Yuanzheng's way to the north, occasionally has to take a detour, after all, it is to go to Great Xia, and the road is still relatively bumpy.
To the north of Bactria there is the North Sea.
After roughly calculating, 200,000 miles away, riding on the handle, Yuan Zheng arrived alone in less than a month.
But right now, it's grinding and chirping all the way to the north, and there are occasional stops on the road.
That's really ......
In the deep mountains and old forests, the fog is quite heavy, the tide spreads, there are some strange places, and there are even more mazes.
Yuan Zheng could only take the two brothers Li Chen and Li Ding to the place where the birds didn't.
One needs to eat, and the other, Li Chen and Li Ding are fine, and they also need to fight with demon beasts.
Fighting with monsters and beasts can occasionally improve martial arts cultivation, but more often than not, it is to enhance one's actual combat experience and sharpen one's mind.
In an open wood, Yuan Zheng sat on a large stone and remembered the stones of the stone mountain for no reason.
Li Chen taught his younger brother to read and write.
The bookcase carried by the scholar Zhong Nan was relatively small, compared to Li Ding.
Reading and writing is a serious thing after all, Li Chen has almost recognized all the words, and occasionally some rare words also need Yuan Zheng to guide him.
Listening to Li Dingguan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island, my fair lady, gentleman chattering, Yuan Zheng's heart is mixed.
Inside the bookcase, there is a thick stack of books.
There are about the art of war, about the sophistication of human feelings, and there are also some sour paragraphs written by readers, whether it is the side door or the four books and five classics, there is everything in it.
Yuan Zheng couldn't laugh a little, when he first taught Li Chen to read and write, in order to take care of Li Chen's emotions, he only mainly studied "The Book of Songs" and "Chu Ci" and three miscellaneous books.
Now when it was Li Chen's turn to teach Li Ding to read and write, Li Chen was also able to be ruthless, bought so many books, and let Li Ding carry such a heavy bookcase.
A person who can't read or write, encountering a whole box of books, is more uncomfortable and exciting than holding a knife to his neck.
Li Chen was also reading a book, sometimes turning his head sideways to watch Li Ding's progress.
The more books you read, the better your brain becomes, I don't know who said it, but there is some truth in it.
Yuan Zheng thought of the scholar Zhong Nan, who read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles.
He took this pair of brothers and did this kind of thing, thinking about it, it was a little funny, but why it was funny, Yuan Zheng couldn't say it.
After a long time, Li Ding and Li Chen stopped.
Yuan Zheng sighed faintly: "With our current progress, we have arrived in the territory of Great Xia, and I don't know what the years and months it will be. ”
Li Chen also wanted to reach the place north of Great Xia to see what the legendary horse looked like.
Li Ding stood up and wiped the beads of sweat on his face, since reading and writing, Li Ding has also lost a lot of weight, but fortunately, his brother Li Chen has adapted to reading and writing, and his figure has gradually become stronger.
Thin body is a necessary process for reading and writing, as long as you get through, although you can't talk about the carp jumping over the dragon gate, but you also have a thought in your heart, and you can also settle down.
Li Chen said: "Soon, as long as we wait until Li Ding gradually understands the characters, we can speed up our pace." ”
Yuan Zheng smiled: "It's okay, since it's a serious matter, don't be afraid to waste time, I don't know how many years in the mountains, what time is the beginning of today?"
Yuan Zheng doesn't have a specific concept of life, anyway, his life has always been quite moisturizing.
Li Chen thought for a moment and responded: "On the sixth day of the first month, tonight's moon will be a little bigger than last night's moon." ”
Yuan Zheng was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "The sixth year of the first month." ”
Today is the day when the second brother holds the crown ceremony, and I don't know if the Wuwang Mansion is lively.
When the eldest brother held the crown ceremony, Yuan Zheng was still a young man, and he was still a bastard, and after eating and drinking at the banquet, he left to find the girl he liked at the time.
Thinking about it now, I regret it a little, after all, it was the big day of the big brother.
I wanted to wait until the second brother was in the year of the crown to go back and see, see it, and support the scene for the second brother, but he was in a foreign country.
also brought two scholars who had just entered the Tao, which made Yuan Zheng's heart sour.
He hoped in his heart that the second brother would be well, and the second brother could eventually become a lover with Jiang Ling.
Even if you can't get married, it's best to get a niece or nephew for Yuan Zheng.
Suddenly, the bearer raised his head and listened to the wind.
Immediately afterward, a gust of wind came.
Yuan Zheng squinted his eyes tastelessly, after entering the deep mountains and old forests, it was normal to encounter demon beasts, just thinking, Lao Tzu's mount was here, how could there be demon beasts rushing over without opening their eyes.
The result is not what I imagined.
A pretty girl, wearing a floral skirt and holding a long whip in her hand, ran towards Yuan Zheng in a panic.
When I looked closely, there was a white jade dragon rhinoceros behind me chasing and killing the girl in the floral skirt.
The white jade dragon rhinoceros is considered to belong to the range of spirit beasts, which is different from demon beasts.
However, it also depends on the level of the bloodline.
This white jade dragon rhinoceros is almost in the late stage of the elephant realm cultivation, but the quality is still good.
The whole body is as black as ink, covered with black scales, and the characteristics of the dragon clan are probably only the slender and thick dragon claws on the limbs, as for the appearance, there is a faint pair of dragon eyes, and there is a forked horn above the nose.
Between the dragon horn and the unicorn.
Galloping, it is also a gust of wind and thunder, and the momentum is like a rainbow.
Otherwise, it would not have been so ferocious to chase and kill this girl dressed in a group of flowers.
The white jade dragon rhinoceros is a ferocious spirit beast, and it also likes to eat demon beasts, but it prefers to set traps to hunt, unlike the dignified frontal edge of the clouds.
Yuan Zheng sat on the stone and didn't want to move.
Li Chen said expressionlessly: "Since it has happened, this drudgery will be handed over to you." ”
The girl in the floral skirt was pale, and when she saw the three of Yuan Zheng, she had some hope in her heart, as if she had grasped an invisible life-saving straw.
Seeing this, Li Ding rushed straight over, without any concealment, stretched out his hands, and a pair of domineering and mighty bear paws vaguely appeared in his hands, which were firmly pressed on the head of the white jade dragon rhinoceros.
In an instant, the white jade dragon roared again and again, and behind him, smoke and dust rolled up.
Li Ding's brute force is very large, much greater than that of his brother Li Chen.
With absolute brute strength, he actually restrained this white jade dragon rhinoceros.
But Li Ding is only in the early stage of the Elephant Realm, and he is not the opponent of this white jade dragon rhino, and in the eyes of the white jade dragon rhino, suddenly a fire light in the depths of the sky is close to Li Ding's eyes.
In an instant, Li Ding felt that his eyes were dark, and he subconsciously dodged with his head sideways, but the forked horn above the white jade dragon rhinoceros was really on Li Ding's chest.
Burst!
Li Ding flew out upside down, with two blood troughs in his chest, and blood was rushing.
Seeing this scene, the girl in the floral skirt was shocked, but fortunately, she finally got out of danger, even if it was temporary.
Yuan Zheng and Li Chen were indifferent, which made the girl in the floral skirt feel that there was something wrong.
Yuan Zheng's idea is very simple, Li Ding is such an honest child, and sometimes he still has to give others a chance to save the beauty of a hero, but he never thought that Li Ding's hero saving the beauty would be so tragic!
One is just a face, and it is overheaded.
Li Chen was just about to make a move, but Yuan Zheng said on the side: "No need, most of the demon beasts killed before are not very powerful, plus the deterrence of carrying the handle, Li Ding didn't make much effort, this is also an opportunity for Li Ding to exercise what is called the brilliance of wildness." ”
The girl in the floral skirt saw Yuan Zheng's mount, which was a thousand miles of smoke and clouds, and sighed in her heart, thinking that this was also a big man.
can be more concerned about Li Ding's injury, after all, the tall man who is not handsome or ugly has saved himself.
A decisive whip was drawn out, and it landed heavily on the body of the white jade dragon rhino, making a loud bang, exploding lightning and flint, and the white jade dragon rhino was furious.
Li Ding also got up from the ground with difficulty at this time, and was pushed up like this, Li Ding felt very uncomfortable, and his stomach was on fire.
Three pairs of illusory wings loomed behind him, and his speed increased greatly, and with a teleportation, he killed in front of the white jade dragon rhino again, shining on the forehead of the white jade dragon rhino, and smashed it with a heavy punch.
Boom!
This punch is definitely not light, and it is also the man who devoured the blue-winged ape bear Neidan.
It's not just as simple as being strong, it's very penetrating.
Seeing this, Li Ding took advantage of the situation to pursue, and smashed it with heavy and majestic punches one after another, smashing this white jade dragon rhino violently.
The girl in the floral skirt also put down her hanging heart, bowed slightly and said: "Thank you for the strong man who came to the rescue, the little woman had nothing to repay, so she had to give some real money." ”
Li Ding looked at the pretty and fair face of the girl in the floral skirt and was stunned for a moment.
Yuan Zheng and Li Chen chose to turn a blind eye.
Seeing that the girl really took out three big gold ingots, Li Ding hurriedly shook his head and said: "No, I don't want to reciprocate for saving people, the girl really tortures me, it's very dangerous here, and I hope the girl will go home quickly." ”
The girl in the floral skirt felt that Li Ding's eyes were very simple and a little honest, and she smiled, and the silver bell-like laughter made Li Ding's heart ripple.
The girl smiled and said: "In this case, when the strong man leaves this mountain range, he can go to the Wang family in Qingzhou to find me, and there will be heavy thanks at that time." ”
"The little girl will leave it for now. ”
Li Ding smiled stupidly, and didn't know how to answer, watching this beautiful girl slip away lightly and quickly from his side.
The girl in the floral skirt didn't say hello to Li Chenyuanzheng, she just remembered that the person who saved her was the honest and simple strong man.
Yuan Zheng snorted and said: "Don't look too fascinated, it's normal for some children of the family to come to the Demon Beast Mountain Range to hone their martial will, or hunt the demon beast to take their inner pill." ”
"Although your hero saving the beauty this time is not very decent, it is not bad, at least you teamed up with other girls to stun a white jade dragon rhino. ”
"The results are impressive. ”
Li Ding's face suddenly turned red, and he didn't know how to reply.
