Chapter 170: Expedition Farewell
When he left Kuroko's house, Han Feng took half of the money on his body and handed it to Kuroko, asking him to subsidize the family. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info Kuroko bowed slightly and took the money, looking extremely humble, but after all, he didn't say half a "thank you".
The next day, before leaving Xiangcheng, Han Feng almost spent all the money on his body. In addition to the food he would have to do on the road in the future, he also bought many local specialties, including clothes, accessories, tea, spices and so on. According to Kuroko's words, at first glance, I thought he was planning to visit his relatives.
Han Feng smiled indifferently when he heard this, thinking that this trip could indeed be regarded as a relative, and this Heizi was not wrong. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't take Jiuzhuo with him for the rest of the journey, he was afraid that he would have to bring more things.
Kuroko has been "kindly" reminding Han Feng not to bring too many things, after all, there is no mount, the next road is all on his feet, and the lighter the bag on his body, the better. However, Han Feng turned a deaf ear, and it wasn't until he said the seventeenth time that Han Feng replied with a little impatience: "No matter how much you talk, you have to carry these things on your back!"
Heizi was not a reckless man, so he naturally understood the meaning of Han Feng's words: he bought so many things, but he didn't plan to let his little man take them all. So the rest of the shopping process is simple and easy, Kuroko is only responsible for providing advice on product selection, and at the same time returning to the old business when his hands are not idle.
His action of stealing people's money bags did not escape Han Feng's eyes, but he did it unknowingly, and Han Feng was happy to turn a blind eye. This shopping scene lasted nearly two hours, and to Kuroko's surprise, the food that Han Feng bought was all according to the amount of three people.
From time to time, he looked back at the woman beside him who was thinner than himself, thinking to himself what kind of world this is, and then there are no horses to travel, where can this girl enter the forest.
But Wanrou's gaze is very resolute, her movements are like weak willows supporting the wind, but her actions are very decisive. It seemed that she was also afraid that she would be left behind by them, so she followed Han Feng all the time, almost blinding. Wanrou's appearance quickly surprised Han Feng, he gently returned his hand, always freed up one hand to pull Wanrou when shopping, and deliberately slowed down his pace when carrying large bags and small bags, so that she could easily keep up.
Kuroko was completely stupid when he saw this, and in his eyes, this was really a strange pair of men and women.
Kuroko is older than Han Feng, and he also has some understanding of the relationship between men and women, and family affection, so a pair of men and women have a deep relationship, regardless of each other, which is not a new thing for him;
The lights were dim at night, and he didn't completely see Han Feng's appearance, he only felt that this was a handsome son. However, in the daytime, he saw that the man was unusually handsome, obviously of Yi blood, and that the woman was of medium and upper appearance, and that she was an ordinary generation.
Heizi lives at the bottom of the Elephant City, and the Elephant City is far away from the Central Plains, and the news is relatively closed, so he doesn't know or care about what has happened outside in the past two years. For him, the distance is as far away as myths and legends, and the half-yi girl is another creature that can't be compared to him. He didn't know that there was a kind of soldier in this world called the Prodigal Soldier, he didn't know that the prisoners of the Prodigal City had long since turned into figures with heads and faces, and he didn't even know what the Yinu pulled by the dozens of carts passing through the city every five years did.
He only knew that Xiangcheng had issued a ban a hundred years ago, strictly prohibiting intermarriage with the Yi people on behalf of others, and no one in the city dared to disobey this order, even the most powerful "person" in their three sects and nine streams.
But he had seen the Yiren. He had seen the fairy-like girls among the Yi people, and he had also seen the sturdy and dashing children. And in the lower classes, he has also heard a lot of strange things. The nobles in the city, like them, did not dare to openly disobey the order and intermarry with the Yiren, but the rules are all set by people, and there are always some people who have a way to take advantage of loopholes.
For example, a little boy who was killed by human traffickers and treated by special means became a child prostitute for sale at a high price.
This kind of thing is not a terrifying and mysterious legend for the people of Xiangcheng, but common sense that everyone knows. There are always a few handsome boys in the big families who can't speak and can't walk, and these people are even lower than thieves and prostitutes.
Therefore, when Heizi recognized that Han Feng had the blood of "Yiren", he unconsciously looked down on him a lot. Although his life is still in his hands, there is no "you" between his words. As for Wanrou, the woman who was willing to follow a lowly Yiren was even more despised.
Han Feng didn't know what Heizi was thinking in his heart, and because Bai Tong left the Cangwu Forest too early, he didn't know much about the situation of future generations.
The three of them went on the road, and when they walked outside the West City Gate, Han Feng looked at Jiuzhuo beside him, and his heart was full of reluctance.
With his physical strength, he doesn't feel tired even if everything is on his back, but what makes him really reluctant is that he has been together for most of the past six months, and he really thinks that he and Jiuzhuo are already friends.
Jiuzhuo's four hooves kept picking the ground, and the grass that had finally grown on the "Jedi" was crooked, and it was miserable. Obviously, although it still hadn't surrendered to Han Feng, it also felt very sad when it parted.
Looking at Jiuzhuo's distant figure, Han Feng couldn't help but ask Bai Tong, "It's all poisonous insects here, just let it go like this?"
Bai Tong was in a good mood because he returned to his hometown, and he spoke much more freely: "What are you afraid of? Jiuzhuo is the king of horses, no matter what forest he lives in, he only has the share of bullying other things. It's much smarter than you think, so it won't be poisoned by eating and drinking. It's better for you to worry more about yourself. ”
Unexpectedly, after being robbed by Bai Tong, Han Feng's depressed mood gradually improved. Looking at Wanrou beside him, he took her hand and strode towards the deep and dark forest in front of him. Kuroko trotted briskly behind the two, with two strings of dry food hanging around his neck.
※※※※※※※※※
Compared to the forest of cangwu that they passed through before entering the Elephant City, the forest that the three of them entered this time was the real forest. It was full of giant trees as tall as a ladder, and even the mosquitoes were more than twice as big as they had been seen before. There was no road in the forest at all, and the bucket-thick tree completely cut Han Feng off the idea of cutting a path with a scimitar. Of course, scimitars and purple gold swords are not useless - they are infested with terrifying beasts.
On the first day of entering the forest, a few people walked less than 20 miles before they found that it was already dark. While looking for the camp, Wanrou finally couldn't hold her overworked legs and sat on a "vine". The vines were about the size of a bowl, and they looked resilient because of the green all over.
However, as soon as Wanrou sat down, she was suddenly entangled by the vines, almost dragging them into the canopy. And in the gentle scream, Han Feng and Heizi realized that it was not a vine, but a python.
The python is far bigger than the green python of the Daiqing clan, but its temperament is not irritable. If it weren't for graceful sitting, it would probably have been pretending to be a vine and waiting for an opportunity to eat one or two mountain jumps to fill its stomach.
As a result, the dinner on the first day of entering the forest became roasted snake meat, and as soon as the snake meat was roasted, the golden leopard's sparkling gaze flashed deep in the bushes......
On the first day, there was no danger, and on the second day, before they could catch their breath, the three of them found that the road they had chosen seemed to be wide, but in fact it was the elephant herd that foraged for food on weekdays. As soon as I took a few steps, I realized that I was in the way of a group of big guys...... Looking at the angry elephant rushing towards him, even Bai Tong could only shout the word "escape......
After tossing and turning like this, on the third day, Han Feng realized that the three of them had finally walked into the forest completely—because even Bai Tong didn't know the way.
