Volume 1 Chasakers Chapter 17 Hurry
On the loess road from Qingniu Town to Wu'an County, a young figure is galloping faster than a horse.
"Master! Risking the loss of the fairy fate to fulfill that person's last wish, I think you are a bit stupid! β
"Perhaps."
"Fourth...... If you don't have time to rush back, do you really plan to go to the Anshan Temple to become a monk? β
"I remember Master Wataku said that you can be a lay disciple."
"O dead mother! The daughter was useless, she failed to protect her younger brother and let him become a monk! β
"Hey, hey! I clearly said that I was a lay disciple! β
Wu Xie was running away, chatting with Jasmine and Du Ruo in his heartβnot so much chatting as nonsense.
However, he talked about it for a long time, and finally had to explain his motives.
"It's just moving." One mouth can say two mouths! When he was questioned and couldn't hide from it, he had to honestly say, "That man is a little stupid, dumb, and sick." But that's it, out of filial piety, he still kowtowed step by step to Qingniu Town, two thousand miles away, this filial piety even touched the world and the world, I am not hard-hearted, it is normal to be moved! β
"Mm-hmm, that makes sense! I was so impressed! When Du Ruo heard this, he nodded again and again, "Actually, I don't object to you helping him fulfill his last wish, but when I think that you can't enter Qingyang Temple and have to go to Anshan Temple to be a monk, I always feel sorry for your father and mother......"
"Let's not mention whether it's good to be a monk! And why did it get to my father and my mother again! β
Wu Xie was so angry that he was fighting with Du Ruo, when Jasmine suddenly asked thoughtfully, "Master...... You're only halfway there, right? β
"Huh? What do you know about it? Wu Xie was taken aback, but this was all seen by Jasmine.
Seeing that Wu Xie was so surprised, Jasmine couldn't help but be triumphant, holding up her flat little chest, and smiling proudly: "Don't underestimate the intuition of the archaeologists who have lived for hundreds of millions of years!" β
Wu Xie sighed, and had to tell the remaining half of the reason.
"I think of my parents in another world." He said gloomily, "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the child wants to raise but does not wait." I can still fulfill my filial piety to my parents in this world, but the parents in that world are already separated forever, even if I really cultivate into supreme supernatural powers in the future, and my cultivation is comparable to that of a divine monarch, it will be a long, long time later. β
"I originally thought that the pain in my heart had been smoothed out by the years, but it turned out that I still couldn't let go." Wu Xie was silent for a moment, and then said categorically, "Immortal cultivators pursue their original intentions, and my original intentions tell me that I must go!" β
"I'm not the kind of person who can abandon everything in order to become an immortal, if I don't take this trip, I will never be able to let go of the burden in my heart, I won't be able to believe in my sincerity, and I won't be able to climb that stone stairs at all!"
Du Ruo sighed when he heard this, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"You Terrans are such trouble! It's so much more convenient for us rabbits! Who your parents are, you don't have to worry at all, as long as you live happily~"
"Jasmine, in fact, I really envy you sometimes, you are so carefree all day long......"
"I'm always upset! How can it be carefree! β
"Huh?" Du Ruo asked curiously, "What are you worried about?" I see that you eat, sleep, and sleep fast every day. β
"Of course you have to be distressed! Do you eat radish leaves first? Or eat radish root first? Should pickled radishes be made with sugar? Or should salt be used? β¦β¦ There are so many things to worry about! I worry every day, and my hair is gray! β
"Aren't you a white rabbit? It's white-haired, right? β
"How is that possible! I'm a beautiful young girl, and I should have long black and shiny hair! β
ββ¦β¦ Youthful and beautiful? Girlish? Du Ruo couldn't help but laugh, "When you were a girl, I don't know how many thousands of years ago!" β
"Don't look disbelieving, okay! What a girl I'm a girl! Haven't you heard that a girl is always a girl? β
"I've heard the legend that 'a girl is always seventeen years old', but that girl must be an ordinary immortal cultivator, and I'm afraid it's not even a fraction of your age......"
"Jasmine senior, didn't you say, 'I've seen the vicissitudes of life countless times'? How can there be a girl in the world who is as old as you! β
Talking and laughing all the way, the sorrow in Wu Jie's heart gradually dissipated. He knew that Du Ruo and Jasmine were deliberately telling jokes to make himself happy, and he couldn't help but be secretly moved.
It is indeed a sad thing to travel to this world and never see your relatives and friends on Earth again. But people can't always look back on the sadness of the past, but should cherish the happiness of the present and treat the people around you who care about you!
While chatting and hurrying, he ran to Wu'an County after a while.
When the peak master of the day after tomorrow is racing regardless of his physical strength, his speed is comparable to that of a BMW horse, and his endurance is far beyond that of a horse. The carriage had been walking for a day and a half, but it only took him half an hour to finish.
According to the map, crossing the Dachijiang River from this side of Wu'an County, there is a small road that leads to a small town. Heading east from that town, you will soon come to the source of the Xiaochijiang River. Along the Xiaochi River, the place where the river flows into the sea is Shuangyue Port.
This is the quickest road that Wu Xie found on the road against the map. Although there may be a lot of risks along the way, it can save a lot of distance compared to other roads, and more importantly, it is very convenient to orient yourself when you go down the river, so you don't have to worry about getting lost.
He is not afraid of danger or hardship, but he is very afraid that he will accidentally get lost and delay a big event when he is trekking between the mountains.
Don't you see that the flying general Li Guangwei shook the Western Regions, which made the Huns both respectful and fearful, but because he got lost, he ended up with the end of the military plane drawing his sword and committing suicide!
Getting lost is always the most terrible enemy of heroes!
The situation in Wu'an County was no different from the last time he came, and if there was anything worth noting, it was that he had seen more than one eliminated immortal seeker in the county seat. It seems that they are determined to live here, in the closest place to the immortals.
Perhaps, many years later, when Qingyang Temple opens the mountain gate again, their descendants will rush to Qingniu Town as soon as possible, inherit the will of their ancestors, and continue to embark on the road of seeking immortals......
Wu Xie did not find a boat on the wharf that could carry him across the Da Chi River - it was the flood season, and the water flow of the Da Chi River was very turbulent, and ordinary boats and ordinary boatmen did not dare to try to cross the Da Chi River at all, and the people who had the strength and courage to do so happened to be absent.
Wu Xie asked several shipwrights one after another and confirmed the bad news. So he didn't want to wait any longer, walked to the river, took a deep breath, and then used his strength under his feet to rush directly into the rolling rapids.
"Come and save people! Someone jumped into the river! β
More than one person exclaimed, but the exclamation was quickly replaced by another.
"Come and see! There are gods who cross the river! β
Of course, Wu Xie is not an immortal, but as a martial arts powerhouse who has stepped into the innate realm with half a foot, as long as he increases his speed to the fastest regardless of the consumption of physical strength, he can indeed step on the waves in a short period of time.
As long as you are fast enough to pedal on your feet, the surface of the water will also provide you with enough support. Even on the earth, there are birds and lizards that can temporarily run on the water, Wu Xie is a top martial arts master in the world of Xianxia, and he rushes across the Da Chi River with super high-speed waves, what is impossible!
But this wild running was also very expensive, and when he finally crossed the Dachi River and came to the opposite riverbank, his legs were already weak and his breath was short, and he was so tired that he couldn't even breathe.
After swallowing a few ginseng pills to replenish his vitality and resting for about two quarters of an hour, Wu Xie regained some energy and continued to run along the path.
The path was so rugged that it snaked through the mountains like a grass snake, and there were no obvious signs on the side of the road, and even the road disappeared more than once. If Wu Xie hadn't given the bamboo sign that Jiang'an gave him like an electronic map, which can show the surrounding terrain and roads at any time, I'm afraid that he would have been lost several times.
Even so, it wasn't until it was completely dark that he arrived at the town, which was too small to even have a name.
"Guest officer, are you going to go to Shuangyue Port along the Xiaochi River?" When Wu Xie was having dinner in the town's only inn, restaurant, and grocery store and inquiring about the news by the way, the part-time shopkeeper Xiao Er and the fat shopkeeper of the chef thought about it and whispered, "If you are more courageous and water-based, the villain has a suggestion." β
"What advice? Say it! Wu Xie couldn't help but be a little anxious and asked loudly.
The shopkeeper put his finger in front of his mouth and "shh Then he looked left and right, and made sure that no one was paying attention to this place, so he came up to him and said in a voice that only he could hear: "Early tomorrow morning, the wooden platoon of the platoon will set off and go all the way east along the Xiaochi Riverβthis speed is very fast, and it is said that it can travel thousands of miles in a day and night." It's not clear if it's a small one that can really travel thousands of miles in a day, but at least it's much faster than you can travel on your own! β
Wu Xie Wenyan thought about it carefully and accepted the fat shopkeeper's suggestion. He gave the fat shopkeeper a small sum of money, and then the local's guide led him to a clearing near the river beach outside the town.
In this clearing, at least hundreds of large trees have been cut down and are being trimmed into the shape of logs and tied into wooden rafts. And in the river beach next to it, many wooden rafts that have been prepared are being pulled by ropes, and they can set off at any time.
The platoon steward who presided over the upcoming transportation of wooden rafts was called Lu Jia, a middle-aged man of medium stature. His skin is dark, his face is covered with cracks blown by the wind, and the corners of his eyes are still a little rotten, but his spirit looks very good, revealing a kind of stable temperament unique to the weathered old rivers and lakes, which makes Wu Xie can't help but think of the hearty and talkative old dart master in the disaster relief team.
After Lu Jia heard Wu Jie's intention, he agreed to Wu Jie's request without thinking about it, and asked him to set off with Mu Lian tomorrow morning.
"You are willing to risk two thousand miles away to deliver medicine for the sake of chivalry; How can those of us who already eat risky meals be inferior to you! β
With that, he led Wu Xie to a raft that had already been made.
"I'll trouble you to spend the night on this raft today, and we'll set off early tomorrow morning."
When Wu Xie asked about the speed of the raft, the land steward slapped his chest with a smile and promised that he would definitely be able to arrive in time.
"From here to Shuangyue Port, unless there is any big trouble, you will definitely be able to get there in two days. Just wait for our good news on the raft! β
Early the next morning, as he had said, the raft untied its ropes tied to the shore with the roar of the thunderous water, and sailed down the turbulent Little Chi River at a speed faster than a galloping horse!
Wu Xie sat in the front of the wooden raft, watching the scenery on both sides of the bank continue to move backwards, feeling the humid river wind blowing agitatedly, and couldn't help but smile.
Looks like we'll be able to get there in time!
