Chapter 681: Washing the Sword Building One
August 18, 24th year of Zhaohua.
Noon.
The carriage stopped, for there was no road ahead for the carriage to pass.
Li Chenan and his entourage stood at the end of the road, and they were greeted by a majestic mountain.
"This is Sword Mountain."
Ran Shiping, the Great Elder of the Sword Washing Tower, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Li, please see, are those towering peaks like many huge swords inserted into the earth?" β
Li Chenan looked at it carefully, and he didn't see how those peaks were like swords.
Even if it's like a sword, it should be a sword with the tip of the sword in the sky!
But he still nodded, asking the question he was most concerned about:
"How far is the Sword Washing Tower?"
"There's still half a day's walk to go...... But the mountain road is rough, so you have to go faster. β
"Well," Li Chenan turned to look at Qin Rigang and his wife, took out the silver tickets from Xia Hua from his arms and handed them over, "You have worked hard all the way." β
"We may stay in the Sword Washing Building for a few days, and you and you will go back with these silver tickets."
Qin Rigang and his wife glanced at each other in surprise, and Qin Rigang looked at Li Chen'an: "Sir, I have already paid when I set off...... If the matter of Mr. washing the Sword Tower is over, and our husband and wife send Mr. back, we will camp here and wait for Mr. and Mrs., how about it? β
Li Chen'an grinned, stuffed the stack of silver tickets into Qin Rigang's hand, and took out another letter and handed it over:
"You don't have to wait for me, after you go back, go to Yanyun Pass to find a general named Su Muxin."
"Give him this letter with your own hands, and these silver tickets are the reward for this task."
Qin Rigang hurriedly pushed back, "Sir, it's too much." β
"Take it, this thing is outside of my body to me, and I'm afraid it's more important to you as a couple...... We're on our way, so don't leave it at that, we'll see you later! β
Li Chenan turned around and took Zhong Li Ruoshui's little hand.
"Sir......!"
Dong Niang and Qin Rigang knelt down together, "In the future, if we are lucky enough to meet Mr. again, we and my wife are willing to follow Mr. Yu forever!" β
Li Chenan had no choice but to turn around again, "Get up, if there is fate, we should be able to meet again!" β
"Farewell!"
Qin Rigang and his wife bowed, "Mr. Xie!" β
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Mountain trails.
Great Elder Ran Shiping walked in the front.
Li Chenan and Zhongli Ruoshui rode in the middle on two goods.
Step Jinghong and Ximen Fuhua walked at the rear.
At this moment, Simon Fuhua's eyes fell on the back of the black horseβ
The mountain road leading to the Sword Washing Tower was rugged and steep, and Mr. Li rode the same horse with his wife, and Mr. Li seemed to be very worried that his wife had fallen off the horse, so the gentleman grabbed the reins with one hand and hugged his wife's waist tightly with the other.
The gentleman really doesn't care about the rules of this world.
This is the free and easy of the gentleman.
Li Chenan rode the second cargo with Zhongli Ruoshui in his arms, just like he once rode the little black donkey with Xiao Baozi in his arms.
These two goods are much taller than the little black donkey, but after these days of training, it is not that Li Chenan's riding skills have improved, but that these two goods understand the needs of this master.
Even if it climbs the hill, it walks extremely smoothly, for fear that the master will fall down and kill himself with a knife.
Zhongli Ruoshui had never ridden a horse in his life.
But she wasn't scared in the slightest.
Her body leaned against Li Chen'an's chest, and what she felt was the warmth from Li Chen'an, as well as the safety.
In the past two days, she has drunk the medicine prepared by Xiao Wu, and her spirit has improved again.
There is still the last half day of travel to arrive at the Sword Washing Building...... Next, how long he will stay in the Sword Washing Building depends on how long Chen An will have to understand the eighteen French styles.
Maybe it's half a year, maybe it's a year, or maybe ......
Zhongli Ruoshui's gaze looked ahead.
Towering mountains on both sides.
This trail is in a gorge between two mountains, and there is a babbling brook on the side of the road, and many wild chrysanthemums bloom on the side of the stream.
Autumn, it's really here.
Then, winter is closer.
A gust of autumn wind blew from the valley, with a little moist moisture, a little cool, Zhongli Ruoshui's body shrank slightly, and Li Chenan hurriedly said to Ran Shiping in front:
"Great Elder, take a break."
Ran Shiping stopped and turned around, and Li Chenan jumped off the horse with Zhongli Ruoshui in his arms.
"It's going to be colder in this valley, I'm afraid it's going to rain, so you'll need to put on a coat."
Li Chen'an rummaged through the bag on the side of the horse, and took out a snow-white cloak and draped it on Zhongli Ruoshui's body.
"It's good to get to the Sword Washing Building, hold on a little longer, don't suffer the cold."
Ran Shiping felt a little strange in his heart.
This Mr. Li came to Xijian Tower for his disciple Li Chen'an to take a look at Wu Xichen's tomb, and he took his wife with him...... This lady of his, with a moderate demeanor, even the appearance of eating is extremely gentle, where does she look like a mountain village girl?
It's more like the eldest lady of a big family.
It's still the kind that can't help but be weak.
They came from Ningguo, this way is a long way, and this Mrs. Li is afraid that she has suffered a lot.
Why bother?
However, Ran Shiping quickly figured it out.
This is the deep relationship between Mr. Li and his wife, and they can't bear the pain of separation, even if they suffer some sins along the way, in the heart of Mrs. Li, I am afraid it is sweeter than eating honey.
Mr. Li is a very meticulous person!
His love for his wife...... It's really an example in the world!
Li Chenan cleaned up Zhongli Ruoshui, and he was about to hold Zhongli Ruoshui and ride on horseback, but suddenly turned his head and looked behind him.
There was a frown between his eyebrows, and in that short moment, his gaze quickly swept around.
He looked at his surroundings.
There is a towering tree by the stream in the front right, and there is a huge stone under the tree.
On the left is a steep cliff face with no place to hide.
He listened again, and the faint sound of footsteps became clearer and clearer in his ears.
"Someone's coming!"
Ran Shiping was taken aback, he listened carefully, and his face showed a look of doubt.
"Quite a few...... It shouldn't be! β
Li Chenan didn't hesitate any longer, he put Zhongli Ruoshui on the horse's back, and whispered in the black horse's ear: "Take your mother behind that boulder and hide for Lao Tzu!" β
The second cargo was slightly stunned, perhaps thinking about who was its mother!
It quickly understood, and ran towards the boulder with its hooves spread, and Zhongli Ruoshui was so frightened that she grabbed the reins in a panic, only to find that the horse's back was very stable.
She didn't fall.
She turned her head.
Bu Jinghong stood in the middle of the road, facing backwards.
Li Chenan stood behind Bu Jinghong.
Ran Shiping had already walked forward.
A man walked around the corner of the mountain road.
A young man dressed in a brocade robe and carrying five swords on his back!
Li Chenan looked at this person, this young man had sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a slender figure, and was very handsome.
It's just that his face looks a little too white.
Some mothers.
The young man stood in front of Bu Jinghong.
He smiled brightly.
"Step Shock?"
"You stand aside, I'll clean you up later!"
"Who is Li Xiaofeng?"
Li Chen'an had already clasped six Xiao Li flying knives in each hand, "I am, who are you?" β
"Autumn Ninth Floor!"
Li Chen'an raised his eyebrows, "Oh, I don't know." β
