Chapter 59: The head is caught in the door
Chu Yangyang and Xie Lingyu, as always, broke away from the army and went on the road alone.
Before leaving, Zhuang Yi couldn't wait to pull the tail of the big black horse and follow behind, although Chu Yangyang also wanted to take Zhuang Yi with him, but Xie Lingyu didn't want to.
However, Chu Yangyang left most of his half of the box of rubies to Zhuang Yi for safekeeping, and Zhuang Yi, who was entrusted with the important task, immediately cheered up.
Ah Chun continued to be responsible for holding Chu Yangyang's small fish tank, and Mu Ne's eyes rarely showed a trace of grievance after seeing Chu Yangyang and Xie Lingyu abandon him again.
The matter of being taken to the bandits' den after walking the mountain road before is still vivid, so this time Chu Yangyang and Xie Lingyu both planned to take the official road first.
Although the Moon King's Palace has been breached, the entire Moon Kingdom is now under the final say of the Yuan monarch, but because the Yuan Kingdom does not want to harm the civilians, the people in the cities can still live, but the investigation is much stricter.
There are still ordinary people coming and going on the official road, but patrol checkpoints are set up every ten miles to check the rebellious party.
So in this case, although Xie Lingyu and Chu Yangyang wanted to keep a low profile and save some trouble, the big black horse under them seemed to be afraid that others would not know that it was a superb BMW.
Xie Lingyu: "......"
Chu Yangyang: "......"
Chu Yangyang couldn't help but look back at Xie Lingyu and asked, "Has it always been like this?" ”
What kind of virtue is the horse he raises, Xie Lingyu still knows it in his heart, but in the past, there were several grooms next to the big black horse to take care of, so Xie Lingyu was too lazy to care about its temperament, but he didn't expect that there were many carriages and mules on the official road today, and the big black horse became cheap.
Xie Lingyu replied to Chu Yangyang without changing his face, "When I took it out of the stable this morning, its head was caught by the door. ”
The implication is that the horse is not in his right mind.
Chu Yangyang subconsciously touched his head, imagining the scene if his head was caught by the door, and couldn't help but squint his eyes and shudder.
Chu Yangyang asked as if he felt empathy: "Then does it hurt?" ”
Xie Lingyu: "......"
Chu Yangyang and Xie Lingyu, who originally wanted to walk together in a low-key manner, entrusted the blessing of the big dark horse, and swaggered all the way through the market, and were spurned and abused by many people.
If it was in the past, Chu Yangyang would have to come down and quarrel with people before leaving, but it was the hooves of the big black horse that caused the trouble, and Chu Yangyang had to tighten his hood and pretend not to hear.
Chu Yangyang and Xie Lingyu kept heading in the direction of the south, because they didn't plan to take the mountain road for the time being, so they planned to pass directly through the city but it would be faster.
At this moment, outside the gate of Yongdu, because the checkpoints are strictly investigated, there is a long queue on the road.
There are merchants who want to go into the city to sell melons and fruits, there are merchants who go to the city, there are also people who visit relatives and defect, and beggars who want to go into the city to beg......
Chu Yangyang couldn't help but straighten up, wanting to see how many people were in front of him, but he was not tall enough, and he couldn't see the situation in front at all.
"If you want to see it, just stand up and watch it." Xie Lingyu moved his body back a little, and then patted the saddle in front of him, but added, "It's okay to step on the horse's head, anyway, its brain is caught in the door, you step on it hard to see if you can give it back." ”
The big black horse seemed to feel the resentment from his master, and stepped on his hooves twice in place.
Chu Yangyang shook his calves, calmly used Xie Lingyu's chest as a cushion, sighed and said, "Forget it, I actually want to ...... more"
Chu Yangyang's words were vague, and he glanced at them with a little weakness.
Xie Lingyu had a keen intuition, and always felt that Chu Yangyang's deliberately vague words behind him were related to him, and then lowered his head and said to Chu Yangyang: "What do you think more, make it clear." ”
Chu Yangyang tilted his head and looked at Xie Lingyu with innocent eyes, "Or don't say it." ”
"Say." Xie Lingyu narrowed her eyes.
Chu Yangyang blinked his eyes lightly, although he had to see Xie Lingyu every day from the moment he opened his eyes, he was still often blinded by Xie Lingyu's beauty.
It's really a male vixen who won't grow like him......
Chu Yangyang subconsciously licked his lips, and then said to Xie Lingyu: "Actually, I want to ride your neck more." ”
The words fell, and the four eyes met, Chu Yangyang took the first step to predict Xie Lingyu's movements, and hurriedly reached out and snatched the long knife hanging on the saddle, and then held it in his arms.
"Impulse is the devil! Impulsiveness is the devil! Don't draw your sword! ”
Xie Lingyu couldn't help but sneer when she saw Chu Yangyang's cowardly look, and then raised her hand and flicked her forehead lightly, which was considered to make her cute.
With Chu Yangyang here, the originally long queue time is not so boring.
Suddenly, Chu Yangyang seemed to smell something, leaned over and sniffed left and right.
Xie Lingyu grabbed her waist from behind to prevent her from falling, "What's wrong?" ”
Before Chu Yangyang could explain, there was a noisy sound from behind.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Get out of the way! ”
A few tall men opened the way in front and pushed the team a few steps to the side, and there were still people complaining, but after seeing the convoy behind the man, they immediately shut up.
Xie Lingyu also saw that three huge prisoner carts dragged by four horses slowly drove by, and the wooden wheels crunched over the bluestone slabs, and on the board was an iron cage that was two and a half years high, but it was completely covered by a black cloth, and he didn't know what was locked inside.
"It stinks...... Chu Yangyang's sense of smell is even more sensitive, and at this moment, she is not lightly smoked by the things transported on these three carriages, she covers her nose with both hands, and tries to hold her breath.
It wasn't until the three cars passed in front of her that Chu Yangyang took a sharp breath of fresh air.
Chu Yangyang watched the three prisoner cars being released into Yongdu City, and couldn't help but ask Xie Lingyu, "What kind of car is that?" It's all rancid, and ...... The taste of the beast. ”
Xie Lingyu's eyes were dark, and when the three prisoner carts were out of sight, he retracted his gaze, drove the horse and walked forward slowly, explaining to Chu Yangyang: "It is a cart used to transport slaves and fierce beasts. ”
"Slaves and beasts?" It's the first time Chu Yangyang has heard of this.
Xie Lingyu was stunned, as if he didn't expect Chu Yangyang to know nothing about this, "Don't you even know this, how did you live in your last life?" ”
Chu Yangyang, who had only lived for five years in his previous life: "With a bang, it passed in a daze." ”
Xie Lingyu sighed, and really couldn't expect Chu Yangyang too much.
Xie Lingyu explained: "The Colosseum is a private game between nobles, every country has it, and those princes and nobles put people and beasts into a field to fight for their lives for fun. On the surface, they were to choose warriors, but in fact they were just to satisfy their filthy selfish desires. ”
Xie Lingyu said it extremely sarcastically, and after Chu Yangyang heard it, he was also extremely uncomfortable.
He put people and beasts together to fight for their lives......
Suddenly, Chu Yangyang seemed to remember something, her eyes widened slightly, and she turned back to Xie Lingyu and said, "You said before that Ah Chun was also ......."
"Well, Ah Chun grew up in the Colosseum." Xie Lingyu replied in a calm voice.
In fact, it's not just Ah Chun......
