Chapter 32: Departure
Outside the border, on the overgrown road, a horse-drawn carriage was galloping.
There were two people sitting in the carriage, none other than Shui Yun Soft Hero Sea.
There is a large wasteland in between the borderline and the next city, and if you can't reach the next city before dark, you'll have to spend the night in the wilderness.
Of course, it's not impossible. Because in addition to them, there are many other people and cars walking this road, and even if you spend the night in the wilderness, you will not be lonely.
The annual Water Cloud Conference is approaching, and this is the busiest time of the road, and in addition to the carriages, countless strange mounts can be seen.
A few decades ago, the most common mount in the Shuiyun Continent was a horse, and of course there were some people with personalities who liked to ride donkeys and mules, and even some people liked to ride bulls.
However, in the past ten years, with the introduction of a large number of spirit beast species and beast tamers in the Fire Country, more and more mount-based spirit beasts have entered people's lives, even the lives of ordinary people.
For example, just a short time ago, the Hero Sea saw at least two huge spirit beast mammoths, this kind of elephant is probably the largest elephant that can be seen on the Shuiyun Continent, it is tall and strong, covered with a layer of light black long hair, thick skin and rough flesh, and it may not be able to penetrate the general secret weapon, and it also has two huge long tusks with a beautiful arc, which are very beautiful, and are often carved into valuable ornaments by nobles.
On the back of the mammoth, there is a simple but delicate small tent, the hero sea once sat on the mammoth, and the small tent of Zhilu Road can sit at least six people, and the bumpy feeling is very small, which can be described as a luxurious car.
However, in terms of speed, the carriage is superior, although it is not too comfortable to sit.
Along the way, the sea of heroes is very vigilant. But it's okay. He didn't find anyone who was following him.
Compared with. Shui Yunrou was much more relaxed, sitting in the carriage with a smile on her face.
"You've been laughing since Xiao Zhe finished talking to you. Don't tell me he's your long-lost brother?" Hero Hai also relaxed, and Chong Shui Yunrou made a joke.
"Who's to say it isn't. Shui Yunrou looked naughty, "Do you know the way, I am more confident that Sister Shi and Tail Sheng can reach Shui Yunjian safely." ”
"Oh?" Hero Sea was interested. "Is it because of Xiao Zhe?"
"Well, that's right!"
Shui Yunrou nodded, looked at the Hero Sea and said, "Have you heard of the Rabbit Group of the Zodiac Group?"
"I'm afraid that in the zodiac group, in addition to the rat group and the tiger group, the rabbit group is the most famous. Especially a certain woman called the little witch, it is even more thunderous!" Hero Hai leaned back slightly after speaking, in case someone was angry with the pink fist.
"Yes, yes, it's rare for my sister to be so famous, and it's a great honor to be a sister. Shui Yunrou laughed cheekily. Then he said, "Do you know that there are only three people in the group of Dao Rabbits?"
"For what?" Hero Hai deliberately pretended to be very interested. Deliberately wide-eyed.
Shui Yunrou glanced at him and continued: "Because the mentor was driven away, and there were only three members, and there was one seat, which was empty......"
"I see. Hero Hai nodded and said leisurely, "The empty seat is reserved for Xiao Zhe." ”
"Don't be so smart, it's too boring to talk to you. Shui Yun smiled lightly and continued, "I really want to fly back to Shui Yun at once, if my sister hears this message, I can guarantee that she will cry happily, and then the next day, you will see his eyes swollen like peaches." ”
"It looks like you're going to tell me a story from a long time ago. Hero Hai supported his face with one arm and put on a look ready to listen to the story.
"I don't know what's going on with Lu Dao, my sister always doesn't like to talk about Xiao Zhe, and I also heard my father occasionally talk about Nalan Zhe.
Not many people remember him now, he's not a famous man, and he's been dead for four years.
Four years ago, my sister and the others had not yet joined the rabbit group, and they were only students of Shuiyun Academy.
At that time, Xiao Zhe, my sister and Xiong Shao came to the critical line, but then I don't know what happened to Lu Dao, Xiao Zhe and Xiong Shao were forced to the edge of the cliff by a very powerful person, and the most difficult result was that Xiao Zhe jumped off the cliff with the man in order to save Xiong Shao.
That's probably what happened, but I always felt that my father didn't make it clear, but he didn't want to say it, so I didn't ask. ”
"What kind of person can trap the famous Tenyasha Xiong Shao, so powerful!" Hero Hai frowned slightly.
"No matter who it is, Xiao Zhe can save Xiong Shao under his hands, and he can also fall off the cliff without dying, I think it should be very powerful. Shui Yunrou said happily.
"I've seen that. Hero Hai nodded lightly, "Do you think that people who can take nothingness with them can be ordinary people? Moreover, do you remember that Zhu Zhanbei fell into the illusion and smashed Zhu Zhiwei with a punch, but it was not the illusion used by Uncle Mao, but Xiao Zhe!"
Shui Yunrou opened her mouth wide when she listened.
......
"What? In other words, you're still Xiaorou's older brother?" Ozao's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Uh...... Sort of. Nalan Zhe scratched his head a little embarrassedly, then turned to Leng Yushi and said, "No matter what, I must go to the water and clouds." Now that Xiaohai and Xiaorou are gone, you are an illusionist, and Osheng is a beast tamer, without the protection of a warrior, his ability will be greatly reduced. So, I'm more or less a martial artist, so I can play a role, let's go together. ”
Leng Yushi looked at Nalan Zhe with a hesitant expression, on the one hand, what Nalan Zhe said was indeed right, martial artists, illusionists, and animal trainers are mutually reinforcing.
The warrior restrains the beast tamer, the beast tamer restrains the illusionist, and the illusionist restrains the warrior in turn, no matter which link of the three falls off, it will bring great convenience to the enemy, and at the same time bring great hidden dangers to themselves.
However, she also knows very well what kind of road lies ahead, although she vaguely feels that Nalan Zhe's strength is not as simple as he said, but no matter how strong he is, he is invincible with both fists and four feet, and it doesn't seem appropriate for him to take such a big risk to follow, she doesn't want to owe anyone a favor from the bottom of her heart, so she let Hero Hai and Shui Yunrou go first.
"Sister Shi, let Xiao Zhe go together, I have a chat partner. Osheng smiled and looked at Leng Yushi and said.
"Okay. Leng Yushi said helplessly, "I'll leave before dawn tomorrow." ”
Just then, Uncle Cat walked in.
Nalan Zhe greeted him and said, "Grandpa Cat, let's leave before dawn tomorrow." ”
Uncle Cat seemed to anticipate this, and was not surprised, sat down peacefully, took out a deerskin bag from his arms, and handed it to Nalan Zhe.
"This is something I just got out of the road, so you can use it on the road. Although your injuries are not too in the way, you should also pay attention to your body, and don't act out of necessity when you have to, your own body knows it yourself. I won't say much about being careful all the way, but I'll go out and buy it in a while to see what else you need, and by the way, I'll order you a private carriage in a while, and I'll leave in the middle of the night. ”
Nalan Zhe opened the deerskin packet, only to see that there were more than a dozen small bottles inside, all of which were some precious healing and tonic medicines, and a small box, when he opened it, Nalan Zhe stayed in place, it was a soul condensing pill!
"After a little more rest, you can eat and put it away. Uncle Mao looked at Nalan Zhe and nodded tacitly.
Nalan Zhe didn't speak, looked at Uncle Mao's old and haggard face, his eyes were full of gratitude and reluctance, and said, "These things are enough." After the Water Cloud Conference, I'll bring everyone back to see you. ”
Uncle Mao didn't speak, nodded, then looked at Leng Yushi and said, "I'll go get you some food, you just stay in the secret room and have a good rest." ”
"Mr. Xie Lu, Mr. Xie. Leng Yushi smiled gratefully at Uncle Mao.
After the meal, Leng Yushi went back to the room alone.
Nalan Zhe was bored, sat and chatted with Osheng, intentionally or unintentionally inquiring about some things about the Warring States Academy, especially their principal, the Phantom Emperor Meng Ming.
Chatting and chatting, I don't know how Lu Dao talked about the Shuiyun Empire's imperial capital, Shuiyunjian.
Tail Sheng said that when he was very young, he and Leng Yushi went to the water and clouds, and lived in the house of the Turan patriarch at that time, and lived for almost half a month, and Tail Sheng said that the most memorable thing he remembered was Turan Lake, which was very blue and beautiful.
