Chapter 108: Meet Again
Just like the situation just now, if Xia Yuan really saw that situation, then it is very likely that the woman will be forced by her family to commit suicide with her full name. In the history of thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, some customs and habits have become indestructible, and some aspects of attention have reached the point of outrageousness.
The situation at that time, even if Xia Yuan didn't see it, if someone saw that scene and spread it. Then, the woman's situation is also quite worrying, and it is very possible that she will be forced to commit suicide. Although Xia Yuan didn't like these customs of the Yuantu Continent very much, he couldn't make others think about it. Fortunately, judging from the situation at that time, there should be no one else around, but I don't know whether he arrived first or later. If he arrived first, it would be fine, but if he arrived later, I'm afraid his current image would have been mistaken for a pervert.
After Xia Yuan had dinner, he got into his exclusive carriage early. It wasn't because he was out of spirits this time, he was afraid that he would see the girl again, so as not to cause embarrassment.
Xia Yuan didn't rest at ease all night, for fear of causing some trouble. Fortunately, there was no disturbance in the caravan outside for a night. It seems that the incident has passed without any adverse consequences.
Because of his past experience, Xia Yuan is very sensitive to this kind of thing, not as free and easy as ordinary people in the rivers and lakes. It wasn't until dawn that he was completely relieved. With the caravan once again noisy, he fell into a state of catching up on sleep.
The final destination of this caravan was Dadu, the capital of Zhongzhou. With the journey of the caravan, it took at least nearly three months to travel from Xuzhou to the capital of Zhongzhou. Xia Yuan recently just wanted to summarize his recent combat experience so that he could further improve. For this reason, even if he has left Xuzhou now, he has no intention of leaving the caravan. He is going to make a good summary of his previous martial arts in the next three months, and make further progress.
With the passage of time, Xia Yuan has been in this caravan for nearly a month, that is, it has been more than 20 days since he left Xuzhou and entered the territory of Zhongzhou. During this time, Xia Yuan still rarely left the carriage, but when he was tired, he would occasionally wander around when he was camping, so as to relieve the fatigue in his mind.
During this time, Xia Yuan met the gentle woman several times, and the two of them would nod and smile at each other from time to time when they met, which was regarded as saying hello, but since the last time, the two of them have never found a chance to talk, and she is always surrounded by a few subordinates.
After so many days, Xia Yuan also inquired about the woman's name from others, her name is Dong Qing, she is from Zhongzhou, and she seems to be the eldest lady of some family. But it is not known which force in Zhongzhou it is.
As for the other woman who did not appear, Xia Yuan had never seen a real person at all from beginning to end. However, the people in the caravan talked about one thing, saying that someone had left the caravan halfway through. According to Xia Yuan's speculation, counting the time, it should be the unknown person. It seems that others are dodging.
When Xia Yuan heard the news, there was nothing on the surface, but in his heart, he was also secretly relieved. After all, he didn't encounter those embarrassing and bloody things, and Xia Yuan felt that he had escaped. Compared with encountering this kind of thing, Xia Yuan was willing to go to the Dong family again. It's a bit more refreshing.
After nearly a month of traveling, the people in the caravan have slowly gotten used to it. It was evening again, and the caravan began to prepare for the fire as usual.
For caravans, they were generally not stationed in the city, as they would have to pay a lot of silver. Businessmen will not waste money easily in the pursuit of profit. For them, living in the city is a waste of money. Therefore, they are very well prepared, and they will not enter the city unless they have to.
Xia Yuan saw that there was chaos in the camp, and stayed away from the camp for the time being as usual. Xia Yuan is a person who likes to be quiet, and he will not approach a noisy environment unless he has to. Just like the noisy camp now, at this time, Xia Yuan is always alone away from the noisy camp. He will not slowly return to camp until he has fully stabilized.
In this way, you can not only stay away from the noisy environment, but also enjoy the scenery along the way, why not!
Xia Yuan walked to the nearby stream again, he squatted down and picked up a palm of stream water, and began to taste the gift of nature.
Natural things are good, and even the water is full of sweet smell, which makes people unconsciously have a good feeling. Xia Yuan sighed softly. If it was a native of the Yuantu Continent, he would naturally not have this kind of sigh. But Xia Yuan compared it with the earth, and unconsciously let out a burst of sighs.
Someone asked why Xia Yuan either came to the river or the creek every time he left the camp. This is pure nonsense, and if there is no water in the vicinity when the camp is set up, it is bad.
Not only caravans, but also armies, when they are camped, there must be a moving water flow nearby, so as to avoid a lot of trouble, and even some possible dangers. (I don't know if it's true or not.) )
Xia Yuan found that since he came to the Yuantu world, he seemed to be more easily connected with nature. Maybe he has lost it, but now he has it again, and this feeling of loss and recovery makes him unconsciously more harmonious with nature.
Just when Xia Yuan was feeling the beauty of nature, a hurried footstep disturbed his nostalgia again.
He turned his head and looked, yo! It was still an acquaintance, an old man he had met more than 20 days ago because of something. Judging by her hurried footsteps, it can't be that something is happening again, right?
Thinking of this, Xia Yuan couldn't help but shudder, he wouldn't be so unlucky! Don't let yourself pass the test safely last time, this time it's even more ruthless, it's not fun!
As soon as he thought of this, Xia Yuan suddenly felt uncomfortable, he wished that he would be able to do stealth now, so that others would not be able to see him. Especially that Dong Qing, if this kind of thing really happened twice in a row, I'm afraid that he would not be able to tell if he was full of mouths.
However, now that his big figure is on the edge of the stream, how can others not see it?
What a bad fate!" Xia Yuan lamented in his heart.
