Volume 2 Dynasty Chapter 207 Home is gone
A few days later.
Lu Xuan sat in the carriage and drove the ox cart staggeringly, surrounded by many pedestrians and farmers with hoes, and the manure pulled by the animals could be seen everywhere, and the smell was stinking.
But Rao is like this, he is not uncomfortable at all, but because of the popularity around him, he has slowed down some tense nerves.
Ah Lai lifted the curtain of the ox cart, stood up, looked into the distance, and saw that he couldn't see the city wall of Fengyang City, and his face couldn't help showing a little disappointment.
"Sit back, this ox cart is so bumpy, you will fall down later, but I don't have the money to find you a gentleman."
Lu Xuan glanced at Ah Lai from the corner of his eye, although he was joking, but one thing was true, they didn't have much money on them, not to mention that they had to go south to find Zhang Daoling, it was a big expense for Lu Zhaozhao to settle down in Fengyang City.
Ah Lai sat down persuaded, put his hands on his cheeks, and asked boredly, "Brother Lu, how long will it take for us to arrive?" β
"This is the third time you've asked." Lu Xuan's tone was a little impatient: "I said, you can get to Fengyang City before dark." β
"Ah Lai, don't be naughty, come in and help me calculate how much money we have on hand." Lu Zhaozhao said with a smile in the ox cart.
"Okay." Ah Lai answered, lifted the curtain and drilled back.
After a brief calculation, there are now things like silver and jewelry, and two satisfied dimples appeared on Lu Zhaozhao's face.
It was two hundred and seven taels in total.
In the rather prosperous Fengyang City, it is not a lot, but it should be enough to buy a slightly smaller house.
Having a house is equivalent to having a home.
It's impractical to sit and eat empty, you can learn some embroidery and other crafts, and no matter how bad it is, you can also plant some fruits and vegetables in the house to subsidize the family, but along the way, I don't know what dishes Brother Lu likes to eat, he always seems to be preoccupied, and he doesn't care about anything.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhaozhao's brows furrowed slightly, and he quickly stretched out again, anyway, there will be a long time in the future, and Brother Lu's preferences can be explored slowly, as long as he doesn't dislike that he is blind.
"Sister Zhaozhao, in fact, you don't have to count the money." Ah Lai sat next to him and muttered in a low voice: "My family has money, and my father and mother will definitely repay you." β
"How do you repay it?" Lu Zhaozhao gently poked Ah Lai's head: "Is it possible that you can still let your family support us for a lifetime?" β
"It's not impossible." Alai muttered.
Lu Zhaozhao smiled: "You're about to go home, you're dizzy with joy, where is the reason to repay the favor?" β
As if he also felt that his thoughts seemed too naΓ―ve, Ah Lai scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.
Lu Xuan, who was driving the ox cart, silently listened to the conversation between the two in the ox cart, and the atmosphere was much more lively than before, which made him feel more relaxed, as if the burden on his shoulders was finally about to be lifted.
It was the first time he had felt so relaxed since he crossed over.
Handed over a piece of persimmon from under his shoulder, sprinkled with white icing on it, Lu Xuan looked back at Lu Zhaozhao with a smile on his face, and took the persimmon with one free hand:
"Brother Lu, what are you thinking about now?"
Like Alai, the life that is about to settle down makes her very happy.
Lu Xuan took a bite of the persimmon, was silent for a while, and temporarily gave up his plan to tell Lu Zhaozhao to find Zhang Daoling: "I'm thinking..... What kind of place is Fengyang City, we can't live in it, and how should we live if we live. β
Lu Zhaozhao gently hugged Lu Xuan's waist with both hands, and said softly: "Brother Lu, you don't have to worry, I have thought about these things, after so many storms and rains, the days ahead will definitely be better." β
"Perhaps."
Lu Xuan glanced at the woods on both sides of the road, the forests around Fengyang City were particularly lush, I don't know if there would be some .....
Forget it, if you come here, you will be safe.
What kind of situation is in Fengyang City, you still have to see with your own eyes to know.
On the bright side, it's not like I've come along the way without encountering towns that don't have evil spirits.
The ox cart traveled about another two or three miles, and the surrounding woods became sparse, and more of it was a stepped farmland, and some dark-skinned peasant men were sweating in the fields.
Speaking of which, the winters in this world don't seem to be very cold, and some hardy crops can be grown in many places.
If it weren't for the rampant evil, the people here would have lived much happier than the people of their own world.
Lu Xuan thought in his heart, and before he knew it, the sun was setting to the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun swayed on the pipes, like a layer of golden tin foil, and from a distance, he could see the city wall built of bluestone, slowly rising from the field of vision.
"It's here, it's almost there!"
From time to time, a head poked out of the carriage, pointed to the rising wall, and shouted excitedly.
From a visual point of view, Fengyang City is indeed very close to them, but in fact, there is still some distance.
It was not until the sun was about to set that they reached the gates.
Fortunately, when I entered the city, I didn't encounter any trouble.
After the soldiers guarding the city inspected the carriage, they entered the city smoothly.
What surprised Lu Xuan was that there was nothing similar to Lu Yin in this world.
The wheels of the carriage crushed against the bluestone slab, making a crisp sound, and Alai simply sat outside the carriage, his legs swaying incessantly, while pointing out the way for Lu Xuan, while explaining to him some of the landmark buildings of Fengyang City:
"Brother Lu, that's Yang Fuji, the candy he bought at home is delicious, I often ate it when I was a child."
"That one is a mountain goods store, but the boss's heart is too dark, and my family is reluctant to go to them to buy mountain goods."
"Yes, yes, there, Brother Lu, that's the Heavenly Burial Tower I once mentioned to you."
Lu Xuan was not very interested in most of the things that Ah said, but when he mentioned the Heavenly Burial Tower, he looked in the direction of Ah Lai's finger, passing through houses of different heights, and could only see half of the Heavenly Burial Tower.
The retro-style building is made of stone bricks and mahogany, the whole tower body reveals solemnity and solemnity, each layer is covered with yellow talismans, and the top is carved with many different shapes of different beasts, looking at all directions, making people daunting.
When the carriage turned a corner, Ah Lai could no longer hold back his excitement, jumped out of the carriage, spread his feet and ran towards one of the houses where two stone lions stood, still shouting loudly:
"Daddy! Mother! Qi'er is back! β
"Daddy! Mother, come out and have a look! β
Ah Lai ran out of breath, but when he ran to the door of the house, he suddenly stopped, and froze in place like a wood carving.
Lu Xuan drove the ox cart to follow, and then saw six big characters written on the closed vermilion gate with a white note-
Edict Yao Mansion to be sealed!
