Chapter Fifty-Eight: Travel
Shen Yu didn't like trouble very much, so he suddenly thought that driving for others was much easier than being a guard, but the people around him didn't think so, and they all laughed loudly.
The laughter of the crowd was full of kindness, and in their opinion, this was just a young man who had no skills and wanted to mix up some money.
When the old man heard this, his expression was also full of helplessness, but when he saw the other party's serious eyes, he still patiently explained: "This trip is very long, and it is not safe, if the strength is not enough, there may be life danger." ”
The old man's voice was clear, more to the people around him, and sure enough, as soon as the words fell, a few men who looked eager to try secretly took a few steps back.
Shen Yu's eyes swept around, plus the old man and the rough man, there were two women in the carriage that exuded a faint fragrance.
To his surprise, one of the women was actually a cultivator, but the realm was not too high, and she had just reached the eighth level of the Qi Refining Realm.
The lower the realm, the less trouble you can get into.
Shen Yu was very satisfied, and said lightly: "I don't care. ”
"Nonsense."
The old man frowned, a little angry that he didn't know it, and wanted to dissuade something, but was suddenly interrupted.
"Yes."
The curtain was lifted, and a tall woman appeared.
Dressed in a green shirt, his body is graceful, and the most eye-catching thing is the pair of slender and tight long legs.
It's just that the only regret is that her appearance is a little mediocre, which must be slightly out of harmony with her outstanding body.
"Miss said that along the way, you can't be wronged Kou Lao to drive every day, just let this person come."
The woman seemed to be from a wealthy family, and there was a sense of indifference in her tone that could not be refused, she looked at Shen Yu and said, "We speak in advance, if we encounter trouble that cannot be solved, no one can take care of you, and then you will ask for more blessings." ”
"Okay."
The old man was still hesitating, but he didn't expect the young man to walk directly to the empty carriage.
Seeing this scene, the old man didn't come back to his senses a little, and only after half a ring did his face change, and he exclaimed, "Slow." ”
Then the maid seemed to have thought of something, and subconsciously reached out to stop it.
The man in the lead of the other carriage showed a sneering look, his hands folded in front of his chest, as if waiting for this good scene.
The mounts under him and on the two ends of his body were not ordinary mortal horses, but a spirit beast from the bitter cold land of the Western Regions, named Wangshan Pony.
This horse's endurance is amazing, and its strength is infinite, and its temperament is even more arrogant and secluded, and it is a spirit beast raised by some cultivation sects to carry some trees and boulders.
If you are a mortal who has not cultivated, you will only be kicked to death by this spirit beast if you approach without permission.
However, he was just a temporary guard who had just joined for the sake of Gathering Pill, and he didn't have the kindness to save a stunned young man who didn't know the severity.
A playful smile appeared on the corner of the rough man's mouth, and he was about to watch a good show of blood splattering, but the next moment made his eyes widen.
I saw that the tall and much larger than ordinary horses saw Shen Yu walking in front of him, and he didn't hurt people as much as everyone imagined, he actually lowered his head very meekly and touched Shen Yu's body, and then bent his front hooves, and humped him onto the frame respectfully.
Looking at this unexpected scene, the onlookers just felt that the horse was gentle and spiritual, but it was difficult for those who knew the true nature of the horse to believe it.
The old man has raised the Wangshan foals for decades, and knows that they are violent and withdrawn by nature, and even they have never been so docile and respectful to themselves.
The rough man stared at the delicate figure in front of him as if he had seen a fairy.
"Let's go."
Shen Yu leaned casually outside the carriage, thinking about everyone's silence, and said, "It looks like it's going to rain." ”
The old man and the maid glanced at each other, saw the confusion and horror in each other's eyes, and after a moment they exchanged glances, as if they had reached some tacit understanding.
Two elaborate carriages set off from the bazaar, one after the other, and then passed through the city gates, gradually disappearing into the wilderness.
On the city wall, a black-clothed man with a hat finally raised his head and stared at the delicate figure in the distance, his eyes full of resentment and ruthlessness.
...
All the way over the mountains and mountains, although the Wangshan horse is a spirit animal, but the mountain road is rugged and steep, which will always make people feel tired, and the three cultivators can bear it, but the two women in the carriage are a little unbearable, so this trip is not very fast.
After the contact in the past few days, although Shen Yu rarely spoke, he also knew some information about the team.
The old man with white hair was called Kou Wang, who was rotten and old in Shen Yu's eyes, and his cultivation qualifications were extremely poor, but he was a well-known hermit of the immortal family among the mortals.
And that rough mine man is called Jiang Jianhu, who is also a martial artist temporarily recruited in Liyang City, and has just stepped into the fifth layer of the First Sense Realm.
The purpose of their trip this time was to escort the daughter of a well-known family member of the Great Departure Dynasty to study somewhere in Dongzu Prefecture, but the exact location was not specified.
Along the way, Shen Yu occasionally saw her face, according to the world's eyes, it was a flower and a moon, but she had a cold temperament, rarely talked to people, and hid in the carriage when she had nothing to do, but the delicate maid would get off the car from time to time to watch, and her name seemed to be Cai Wei.
At noon on this day, the early summer sun was a little hot.
The two carriages slowly moved eastward, one behind the other, the traces of several ruts stretching along the winding road.
It's been almost half a month, Kou Wang and Jiang Jianhu are sitting at both ends of the carriage in the back, guarding the young lady's carriage tightly, while Shen Yu is leading the way on the carriage at the front.
This kind of behavior seems to be very much like asking him to explore the way.
If he encounters a sudden interception, Shen Yu will definitely be the first to suffer, and the next two will definitely not think about saving him.
Shen Yu didn't care about this, he was very satisfied with the arrangement along the way, and often leaned outside the carriage to take a nap, not thinking of his identity as a driver at all.
Even on such a bumpy and rugged road, the young man's figure actually followed the carriage one after another, swaying from side to side, with indescribable nature.
I don't know how long it took, but a cry sounded, and the two Wangshan horses stopped.
Shen Yu slowly opened his eyes, and the sky was already covered with sunset, layered like fish scales, and around him was a valley rarely encountered in the mountains to the east, and a small stream flowed through, but it was about to rest here.
The man, Jiang Jianhu, jumped out of the carriage with one stride, and then quickly took out two tents from the package and set them up.
Shen Yu got up and stretched, and then jumped out of the carriage as well, but he didn't help with the camping at all, but lay down on the grass next to the stream and continued to sleep with his eyes closed.
Cai Wei, the maidservant who lifted the curtain in the distance, saw this scene, her slender willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and then looked at the old man next to her.
Kou Wang shook his head and said helplessly: "I still can't see the reality of this person, he doesn't have spiritual power fluctuations on his body, either he is a mortal, or..."
The old man did not continue, but the maidservant already knew what he wanted to say.
Either he is a mortal, or he is a strong person whose cultivation realm is much higher than that of the old man.
Thinking of this, the maidservant Cai Wei's face showed a hint of fantasy.
Because this matter was already ridiculous, if he was really a great cultivator, and he was a young disciple with extremely talent, how could he lower his body and be a chauffeur for them.
"I guess I'm overthinking it."
The old man smiled and said freely: "There are countless strange people and strange things in the world, maybe he was born to be close to that spirit beast animal." ”
The maidservant shook her head and said, "That's not what I care about. ”
...
Shen Yu felt a figure covering the afterglow of the setting sun.
So when I opened my eyes, I saw the face that habitually showed a haughty and indifferent look on weekdays.
"I don't think you should be so lazy."
The maidservant Cai Wei looked arrogant and said condescendingly: "Taking people's money is not for sleeping. ”
Shen Yu closed his eyes again and said lightly, "I'm just a coachman." ”
"The coachman can sleep every day?"
Cai Wei's tone was a little sarcastic, and she was also a little angry.
These days, she naturally secretly observed Shen Yu for a long time, so she knew how lazy he was.
Shen Yu said: "I have no problem with the road, and the handlebar style is also very stable, so I am naturally very competent." ”
Cai Wei wanted to refute, but suddenly found that what the other party said was not wrong, and she was speechless for a while, and finally had to stomp her feet and turn around and leave.
Before leaving, he still threw a bag at him, Shen Yu opened it and found some scattered silver taels, and then he knew that this little girl was here to send a reward.
Shen Yu looked at the little girl who was gradually moving away, her figure was slender and exquisite, and it was really incommensurate with her ordinary face.
If that girl can put away the cold and arrogant look between her eyebrows, she is making the mediocre and rough mask of her face more refined, or she can deceive more people.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little distressed about the "eldest lady" who hid in the carriage all day, and did so much, but it turned out to be useless.
This kind of Li Dai Taozhuang's little trick is estimated to have been seen through by Jiang Jinhu, the martial artist of the rough mine, these days, not to mention other people.
In the past, Shen Yu stood too tall, even in the previous life, he was at the peak of entering the WTO, so he always saw the scenery from above, and never cared about the ups and downs in the low places of the world.
In this life, when he was about to go down the mountain, Su Mo deliberately explained some words before leaving, and he had to experience in the mortal world and wash away thousands of prosperity, so that he could transcend heaven and earth.
In this way, although it is not as longitudinal as the heavens, it is also a different taste.
Shen Yu palmed up and gently tossed the bag of silver.
Of course, the duties of the coachman and the guards are different, at least Shen Yu thinks so.
The most straightforward thing is that the coachman is not responsible for the safety of their lives, which is a thing that saves Shen Yu a lot of trouble.
It's just that he picked up the bag of silver, and things seemed to be a little different.
...
Although the Dali Dynasty is now in its prime, the world is still not peaceful, and there are many mountains in the east, and there are naturally countless bandits.
Only this way from Liyang City, I passed through many mountains on the way, and I met many inconspicuous mountain bandits.
It's just that these rabble are not worth mentioning to Jiang Jinhu and Kou Wang, and after a few outlaws were beaten by that martial artist and their brains collapsed, the rest of the people saw this and scattered and fled for their lives.
So the journey was smooth.
After more than a month of travel, everyone approached the border of Dongzu Prefecture.
In front of them, a majestic mountain lay in front of them.
