Chapter 116: A Glimmer of Heaven
Xiaolangdi's night is very quiet, but the stable is estimated to be in the backyard not far away, Yi Xiaoxiao, who sleeps in the room, can always hear the slight sound made by the horse, and he can't sleep well at first, so he runs to Zhou Xiaofei's room next door to sleep, in Zhou Xiaofei's arms, even if the horse barks a few times in her ear, she will sleep sweetly.
The next day, as soon as the day dawned, the white devil devil devilishly interrupted everyone's dreams, and Xiao Xiao muttered that he wanted to sleep for a while, but Zhou Xiaofei obediently got up early, this beloved brother was gone, where was there any sweet dream with a pillow in his arms?
After eating yesterday's sweet and sour fish feast, everyone was worried that what they ate this morning would not have anything to do with fish.
When Xiao Er asked what breakfast he wanted to eat, everyone insisted that they didn't want porridge steamed buns.
Soon glutinous rice porridge and snow-white steamed buns were served on the table.
"Have you fed the horse?" the White Devil asked Little Er.
"Distinguished guests, please rest assured, our horses are served by us as BMWs! How can you not eat enough?" Xiao Er replied politely.
After breakfast, the carriage in front of the Xiaolangdi Inn was ready to be delivered.
The horse was really fed, and the white devil rewarded Xiao Er with satisfaction.
The car got on the official road and continued to run north.
When I first came out of the academy, the people in the carriage seemed to have endless words. But the journey is far away, the process is very boring, no matter how much you say, there is a time to finish, and the people in the carriage are much more silent than when they were on the road yesterday.
On the right, Xian Shi and Xianyi opened the car window to look at the scenery speeding by, the trees nearby, and the Tianruo Lake in the distance, looking speechless.
On the left, Zhou Xiaofei seemed to be in a state of half-sleep, Yi Xiaoxiao hooked Zhou Xiaofei's arm with his hand, and said to Zhou Xiaofei indifferently: "Let's tell you to sleep more, you have to get up so early, you can fall asleep while sitting in the carriage, my sister has served you!"
In fact, she didn't know that Zhou Xiaofei had entered a meditative state.
The farther the car goes, the rarer the people on the side of the road become, and the scenery becomes more and more boring.
Since this national highway was built along a river that flows to Tianruo Lake, the horse-drawn carriage has been traveling upstream along this river, and the time is already noon, there is no river on the side of the national highway, there are no people on the roadside, and there is no hotel, but the sun overhead is hot.
The White Devil stopped Bai Su and took two sunshade cloaks, she had obviously prepared for them.
"After the first line of heaven in front, it is our northern frontier country!" Bai Devil lifted the curtain of the car door to look at the sleeping children inside, and said to Bai Su.
"Yes, do you want to take a rest and let's go again?" Bai Su said after taking a sip of water.
"It's such a hot sun, it's better to stop and recuperate! The White Devil also took the water bag and took a big sip.
"Will there be any trouble this time?" Bai Su asked.
"It's better not to, but this has always been a place where the government can't control it, so we need to be careful. I switch to the front, you go to the back, remember to follow all the time, just don't fall behind. The White Devil put down the hydration bag and got into the carriage.
"A line of sky" is a small place in the northernmost part of the country, because of the special terrain here, it is named a line of sky. After a glimmer of days, we arrived at the northern frontier region. It is famous for its five-kilometre-long canyon, which is 300 meters deep and the main peak is more than 1,000 meters above sea level. Strange peaks and dangerous stones, a thousand postures, natural creation, the valley is long like an alley, known as "a line of sky".
The bottom of the canyon had been leveled as it was a necessary route for caravans, so that it would be easier for horse-drawn carriages to pass. Therefore, this official road is only a place with this line of heaven, and the terrain is steep, and it has become a good place for all kinds of green forests to rob and rob money.
Most wealthy merchants would hire a group of magicians to escort them at a high price to ensure the safe passage of goods. Whether the vendors can pass through is a matter of luck.
White Devil and Bai Su changed their driving, and the speed of the car was significantly faster. The sleeping people in the carriage woke up one after another.
Yi Xiaoxiao opened the car window and found the beautiful scenery outside the window. As if he had found a "stick leg", he was as excited as he was, and loudly reminded everyone to open the window to watch.
I saw that the shape of the stone wall on both sides of the ditch is very peculiar, there is a clear stream on the side of the valley bottom, ups and downs, and the sound of the water flow clearly echoes in the valley, endlessly. Looking up at the valley from the car window, the scenery is strange, and on the high stone wall, sometimes water droplets hang like pearls, dripping with the wind at will. There are several small holes in the stream that extend inward, unfathomably deep.
Lifting the curtain of the car door and looking at this line of sky, it seems that it really makes people believe that the end of this road leads to the sky. The scorching sun just now has been blocked by the stone walls on both sides, and the wind is blowing in the face, so the horses are running very happily in this deep mountain valley.
The White Devil wasn't in the mood to enjoy the scenery as the children in the carriage, and her worries intensified as the carriage boiled.
"Don't make a loud noise, young ladies, and don't poke your head out to see if anything happens. The White Devil turned to Yi Xiao Xiao and the others in the carriage and explained.
The atmosphere in the originally boiling carriage plummeted in an instant.
In this way, you can hear that something troublesome is about to happen. Yi Xiao Xiao knew that the white devil was an old man, although she was naughty, but the white devil was so serious about her words, of course she knew what the white devil meant. So obediently closed the curtains, looked nervous, and went straight to Zhou Xiaofei's arms, the original envy and envy on the side were also squeezed over, and a bunch of people were crowded in Zhou Xiaofei's arms, as if hiding in the arms of the trumpet man in front of him, he could be sheltered.
Indeed, Zhou Xiaofei was the only man in the two carriages, although this only man was still very young.
Both the White Devil and Bai Su looked nervous, looking up at the top of their heads from time to time, and the carriage was driven away. Although the northern frontier country and the southern country of Shi have half of the jurisdiction of this place, the terrain here is remote, the canyon is not easy to set up a station, and for a long time, the kings of the mountains have been entrenched alternately, and the government has either come and gone without returning, or it is an empty trip, and over time it has become here, and the vacuum between the two countries has made the bandits more rampant.
Originally, the White Devil planned to go north from another way: looking at the north gate, but there were many things that Yi Xiao Xiao bought, and he had to load them in a carriage and walk from the pipeline. This can only choose this nearest road, other roads have to go around a big circle, Yi Xiaoxiao, who is like an arrow, plus they are all children, if this journey is too long, offend Miss, this time after returning home Miss sued in front of the master, then the whole semester's hard work is in vain.
But when they really walked to this line, both of them regretted their original choice, after all, if something really happened, if the opponent was just a few robbers, it would not be afraid. But this line of bandits is famous, and there must be a high-level magician to help, otherwise the government can still suppress the bandits to no avail? At this time, the white devil can only pray that something that should not happen, and never happen.
"Ask for support !!"
