Chapter Twenty-Four, Spending the Night in the Jungle

When the first rays of morning light sprinkled on the walls of the imperial capital, the gate of the imperial capital slowly opened, and Ji Fengtian and Zhuge Qingming slowly walked towards the south city gate.

"Aren't we looking for a carriage to hurry over?" Zhuge Qingming asked curiously.

"Walking is also a grind. Ji Fengtian said, and walked towards the south by himself.

The two of them walked for two days to the south, and the two-day journey was very boring. Zhuge Qingming also went from being excited at the beginning, his mouth kept stopping, and then he slowly became bored and listless.

"I said, "Why don't we find a carriage!" or ride a horse, it's better than going slowly. Zhuge Qingming complained.

"Well, it's time to change tactics. Ji Fengtian thought for a while and replied.

"Really, I love you so much, the next town is coming soon, let's hurry up. Zhuge Qingming quickened his steps and walked towards the town.

Ji Fengtian looked at Zhuge Qingming's cheerful steps, and couldn't help but show a playful smile in his mouth.

"Boss, I'm going to make two 100-pound weight-bearing vests! Two pairs of 10-pound bracers, and two pairs of 10-pound leggings, preferably made of dark iron sand. A six-year-old boy stood at the counter in a blacksmith shop in town.

"What, boy, are you sure you're not joking with me?" said a burly, dark-skinned, bearded man at the blacksmith counter.

"Yes, I'm not kidding. How much does it cost?" The six-year-old boy was Ji Fengtian.

"Are you sure you want these things, boy?" the boss asked suspiciously.

"Yes, please ask the boss to tell me the price!" Ji Fengtian replied seriously.

"Well, these things add up to a total of one hundred and eight taels of silver, I'll give you one hundred taels, I don't want those eight taels. The boss thought for a while and said.

"Okay, this is a hundred taels of silver tickets. Ji Fengtian took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels and handed it to the boss.

"All right, boy, you can come tomorrow morning to get it, do you need anything else?" asked the blacksmith shopkeeper.

"The rest is not needed for the time being. Ji Fengtian said.

Leaving the blacksmith shop, Ji Fengtian returned to the inn, Zhuge Qingming was lying lazily on the bed at this time, and when he saw Ji Fengtian coming back, he didn't bother to raise his eyelids.

"Everything is done?" asked Zhuge Qingming.

"Well, it's done!" Ji Fengtian said.

"Great, if you had listened to me a long time ago, we might have reached Daqing Mountain by now. Zhuge Qingming said.

"Okay, yes, yes, yes, but have you washed your feet?" Ji Fengtian asked with a sniff.

"I asked the guy for hot water just now, and it hasn't been delivered yet. Zhuge Qingming said lazily.

"Get out of here, come into my room without washing your feet, and put your stinky feet on top of my quilt. Ji Fengtian said angrily.

"It's sour~~~," Zhuge Qingming said with a strange smile.

"Change rooms!" After speaking, Ji Fengtian turned around and walked towards the next room, not noticing the hint of ridicule in the corner of Zhuge Qingming's eyes.

"Hey!Zhuge Qingming!Did you step on the shit?It stinks!" After a while, Ji Fengtian's voice came from the next room.

"Hey, hey, hey, you deserve it!" said Zhuge Qingming.

"Now, immediately, immediately, get back to your room for me!" Ji Fengtian said as he stood in front of Zhuge Qingming with a pale face.

"Oops, oops, isn't this tiring from walking, tomorrow will be fine, tomorrow will be fine. Zhuge Qingming was dragged off the bed by Ji Fengtian's ears.

"Tomorrow will be fine?" Ji Fengtian's eyes looking at Zhuge Qingming suddenly became very strange.

"Alright, you can sleep here, and I'll open another one. After thinking about it, Ji Fengtian still felt that he couldn't be so cruel to Zhuge Qingming.

In the early morning of the second day, Ji Fengtian and Zhuge Qingming had breakfast, brought some dry food and left the inn. When they came to a blacksmith shop, Ji Fengtian and the two walked in.

"Boss, are you ready for what I want?" asked Ji Fengtian.

"I'll bring it to you when you're ready. With that, the owner of the blacksmith shop turned and walked towards the backyard.

"I said, you won't let him build you a carriage, will you?'s so extravagant?" Zhuge Qingming looked at Ji Fengtian with wide eyes.

"You'll find out in a minute, big surprise. The corners of Ji Fengtian's mouth lifted, leaking out a row of white teeth.

"Oh, big surprise, hehe, then I'll wait and see, our brotherly relationship is delicious!" Zhuge Qingming smiled.

"Here's what you wanted. The owner of the blacksmith shop came out of it with two pieces of clothing in his arms.

"Huh, what is this?" asked Zhuge Qingming as he strode forward and looked at what the blacksmith shop owner had brought out.

"Don't talk nonsense, put it on. The owner of the blacksmith shop provided a room for the two of them, Ji Fengtian said as he wore his weight.

Ji Fengtian...... I feel like the boat of our friendship is sinking. Zhuge Qingming said while holding the weight-bearing vest.

"Don't talk about what you don't have, put it on. Don't forget what you said about blessings and hardships. Ji Fengtian urged.

"Okay, count you ruthless, don't fall into my hands in the future!" Zhuge Qingming gritted his teeth and put the weight on his body.

"Yes, the surface is still very soft. Ji Fengtian praised after putting it on.

"Thank you, boss, we're leaving. After the serial number was loaded, Zhuge Qingming and Ji Fengtian said goodbye and left.

Along the way, Zhuge Qingming's mouth did not stop.

"Are you thirsty?" asked Ji Fengtian.

"Thirsty!" Zhuge Qingming said.

"Then you don't shut up, or you won't have any water to drink in a while. Ji Fengtian said.

"I can't walk on my legs. After walking for a day, Zhuge Qingming gasped and said. Then he sat on the ground, although the weather was very cold now, but Zhuge Qingming's face was sweating like rain.

"I think if you sit a little longer, we'll have to spend the night outside. Ji Fengtian looked at the sky and said.

"I'm not leaving, I'm going to spend the night here today. Zhuge Qingming said weakly, and then lay down on the side of the road.

"Okay, you can rest here for a while, I'll go to this woods to find some firewood, and hay, and make a fire for a while, roast some dry food to eat, and ward off the cold at night. Ji Fengtian said helplessly.

"Burn the fire, roast the dry food, boss, did you bring the fire?" Zhuge Qingming suddenly felt very fresh. Because, this is the first time he has spent the night outside.

"Wait for me, I'll go too. Zhuge Qingming turned over, shook his bones, got up from the ground, and chased towards Ji Fengtian.

The two of them wandered around the neighborhood for a while, and finally found a large tree that required four or five adults to surround it, and the roots of the tree were raised and intersected, forming a ring area, and there were no weeds inside the ring.

The two of them found a piece of grass in the woods and spread it at the root of the tree, and made a fire with the branches they had picked up not far in front of the root.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Fengtian took out some dry food from his backpack, skewered it with a wooden stick, and roasted it on the fire.

"Boss, have you participated in wilderness survival training?" asked Zhuge Qingming curiously.

"No!" Ji Fengtian said, reaching out and turning over the dry food, and threw a few sticks of firewood into the fire.

"Then how can you be so skilled in your movements, and you know so much? Zhuge Qingming became more and more curious.

"If you read more books, you will know. Ji Fengtian spread his hands and said.

Just as the two were chatting, suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the surrounding insect chirps disappeared, and the surroundings became quiet.

"Why don't I think the situation is right?" said Zhuge Qingming, leaning against the root of the tree.

"Shhhhhh

"Roar" was the moment the fire on the ground was extinguished, and a roar came from the nearby woods. Then came the sound of the beast running, in the direction of where the two of them were.

"Ready, I don't know what kind of beast is coming, but the tiger may be bigger. Ji Fengtian whispered.

Taking a short sword from his waist and putting it in his hand, Ji Fengtian stared at the woods in front of him.

"Roar!" An earth-shattering roar sounded in front of Ji Fengtian and the others, and then a huge figure jumped out. Two eyes glowing with a faint green light stared at Ji Fengtian, who was a white-fronted tiger with a hanging neck.

"I'll see the right time to strike and fight for a single kill, otherwise you may attract other beasts, and then you will be in trouble. Ji Fengtian said.

After waiting for a while, he didn't see Zhuge Qingming agreeing, Ji Fengtian couldn't help but turn his head to look.

"Damn, you dropped the chain at the critical moment. Ji Fengtian saw Zhuge Qingming's pale face and sat on the ground in a cold sweat.

"Get out! You just dropped the chain, pull me quickly, my legs are numb!" Zhuge Qingming scolded.

"Roar!" Just as Ji Fengtian stretched out his hand to pull Zhuge Qingming's arm, the white-fronted tiger with a hanging neck jumped up and pounced on Ji Fengtian and the others.

Throwing Zhuge Qingming to the ground, Ji Fengtian held a short sword to face the white-fronted tiger with a short neck, and when the white-fronted tiger pounced on Ji Fengtian, Ji Fengtian instantly stabbed out a short sword, and the short sword stabbed at the throat of the white-fronted tiger, and the white-fronted tiger fell to the ground with a whimper.
