Chapter 52: Returning Home
What the three of them didn't know was that the paralyzing sand lion had been very well-behaved since that injury, and in order to recover its strength, it continued to assign other creatures in the desert that could dig holes and drill sand to dig around for gold, because in that attack, although it sucked a lot of human essence and blood, but, on the whole, it was not enough to recover its own body damage, which was the real gain outweighed the loss.
At this point, the Soul Paralyzing Sand Lion never had the idea of attacking the human world, because it knew that humans were really too terrible to provoke casually.
At this time, Dean Chu took out two boxes of medicinal materials from the storage ring, and said: "I have already divided the six boxes of medicinal materials last time, here are all medicinal materials for making high-grade and top-grade pills, you can see for yourself what there is, for the medicinal materials of the superb pills, you can come to me at any time when you need them in the future." β
The two brothers were inexplicably moved when they saw Dean Chu take out so many medicinal materials.
Luo Xing clasped his fists and said gratefully: "Thank you Dean Chu for your kindness and protection to us all the time, we will definitely remember it in our hearts and dare not forget it." β
Liu Dafu also hurriedly thanked him, after all, compared to money, this medicinal material is rare but undesirable in many cases, especially in the rivers and lakes.
"You two little guys, you're pretty polite. Well, remember today's events, and don't spread them. If I hear that this matter has caused panic among the people of Mocheng, I will ask you both, understand? β
Luo Xing and Liu Dafu nodded solemnly, and responded in unison: "Understood." β
After seeing the solemn promise of the two, Dean Chu nodded slightly, and said with a straight face: "Okay, let's go, remember what I said before, remember, take life safety as the first thing, walk in the rivers and lakes, be smart, talk less, eat less wine, know more things, if you are not defeated, you must not be brave, you should run away first, endure humiliation and steal your life, and then seek your own thing." β
Looking at Dean Chu's serious eyes and repeated words, the two brothers Luo Xing and Liu Dafu nodded heavily.
"Dean, our academy only has one statue in the center, why don't we erect a statue for those twenty or more people? Let more students understand, respect, and worship? Wouldn't that be better? After all, they are all heroes of high righteousness, so isn't it natural for future generations to worship them? Luo Xing asked suspiciously.
"What you said is not unreasonable, in fact, I have already thought so, but the previous dean told me that the five people who survived that year were unwilling to do so, and they had issued a death order not to do so, because the fifteen people who died in the war did not know who they were, and it was obviously inappropriate for the living to make a monument, so only a statue was erected in the center of the college, implying that the students should have the courage to move forward, and they should only be unsung heroes, and these are only the right of the previous deans to know. However, it is true that there should be an opportunity in the future for the current students to know. β
After listening, Luo Xing and the others admired it even more, nodded and didn't say anything more.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the organ, and then a voice came in: "Dean, Ruima City Kuliang, Beiliang City Zhan Yunyang is visiting, and he is at the gate of the courtyard at this moment." β
"Well, got it, let them in." After speaking, Dean Chu looked at Luo and Liu: "Come with me to meet them, since you have entered the rivers and lakes, it is still helpful to know more people." β
The two nodded, followed Dean Chu out of the treasure room, and returned to the second floor.
After a while, two people came into the dean's room, both of them were old people.
One is tall, unusually athletic, and has a resolute face.
Although the other person is old, he still looks chic and abnormal, and judging by his face, he must have been handsome when he was young.
The two of them clasped their fists and said, "Brother Feng." β
Liu Dafu was stunned when he heard this, wondering why they called Dean Chu Brother Feng, but he didn't dare to ask, and continued to listen.
Dean Chu smiled and said, "Two brothers, how come you have time, please take a seat." After speaking, he was busy making tea and pouring water.
After the two of them were seated, Luo and Liu brought the teacups over and put them away, and then stood around Dean Chu.
The two thanked them, only to hear Ku Liang say, "We just miss the eldest brother, so we met to see you." β
Zhan Yunyang also said: "Hey, it's been many years. β
While speaking, the two took out the two boxes and put them in front of Dean Chu's desk, Zhan Yunyang said: "Our brother's little care, big brother don't refuse." β
Looking at the two boxes, Dean Chu sighed and said, "You guys, it's always like this, take it back quickly, you don't have to be like this." β
Ku and Zhan sat down again, and Ku Liang said with a smile: "If it weren't for the eldest brother who helped us back then, the grave grass would have grown to a hundred zhang high." β
Zhan Yunyang also said: "That's true, big brother, don't be polite." β
Dean Chu said, "Okay, then thank you two virtuous brothers." After speaking, the two sides introduced each other again.
The two brothers Luo and Liu greeted each other respectfully, and when Zhan and Ku learned that one was Mei Feng's apprentice and the other was from a family of medicinal herbs, they were extremely surprised, and they thought that they must have a good friendship in their hearts, thinking that in the future.
After chatting for a while, Dean Chu said: "In addition to that layer of relationship, the two of them also have a lot of relationship with me, if they encounter difficulties on the mainland in the future, you can help." β
Zhan Yunyang hurriedly said: "Brother Feng, you will see the outside world when you say this. As he spoke, he looked at the two little brothers and said, "You also know our address, if there is something in the future, you can send someone to deliver a letter or go directly to our two families, no matter how big or small the matter is, if we say a word at that time, we will come to see Brother Feng." β
Ku Liang also said: "Brother Zhan is the same as I think, you can rest assured." β
After listening to the two of them, the two brothers Luo Xing and Liu Dafu were extremely grateful in their hearts and hurriedly thanked them.
Dean Chu said: "Okay, it's not too early, you can set off first, I won't stay longer, Luo Xing, for you." As he spoke, Dean Chu took out a letter and handed it to Luo Xing, motioning for him to open it and read it.
Luo Xing was puzzled, and when he took out the letter and opened it, he immediately became excited, he didn't expect that it was written to him by Bai Longfei, and he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.
I saw that the letter read: Xing'er, you and I are separated, and we can't see each other for a long time, but I have come to peek at you several times, and I am very happy to see you grow. I hope that you will grow up alone, go alone in the rivers and lakes, go through the dangers of the rivers and lakes, increase what the world has read, and think that you will be the work of the futureγγγγγγ
Luo Xing looked at this letter, mostly for his earnest entrustment, earnest expectations, deep teachings, and his thoughts about himself were also fully revealed, and the letter even mentioned that if you really want to go home to worship your grandfather, you must be careful of the people of the Huang family in the mountain city, and finally wrote the address of Bai Longfei's house.
Liu Dafu stepped forward and hugged Luo Xing and comforted him.
Luo Xing put away the letter, wiped away his tears, looked at Liu Dafu and smiled, then looked at Dean Chu with his fists and said: "Dean Chu, I won't say much about the words of gratitude, I will remember all the things in my mind, and I will never dare to forget, Dafu and I will leave now, you take care, the two uncles take care." β
Liu Dafu also hugged his fists.
Dean Chu smiled and said, "Okay, let's go, be careful with everything." β
The two of them answered, said goodbye to the three deans, and left.
Luo Xing, who left the academy, didn't know what kind of mood they were in now, and there was always an inexplicable feeling lingering in their hearts.
Luo Xing's eyes were full of anxious anticipation mixed with some reluctance, and Liu Dafu looked reluctant.
After a while, the two of them bought a lot of suitable things, put them in the space pendant in a place where no one was found, and then each picked up a small package and went to the place where the carriage was hired.
After a while, the two found a shop called "Ping An Car Shop", but saw that the two round stone pillars on both sides of the door were each pasted with a couplet, and the upper link on the right side was: Welcome distinguished guests, send all directions, and accompany each other safely all the way. The lower link on the left is: Walk thousands of mountains, travel thousands of miles, and sit back and relax all the way. Above the lintel, in the middle of the horizontal batch: safe and comfortable.
The boss told Luo Xing and the two that the extra expenses due to the long distance were all paid by Luo Xing and the two brothers, and the two brothers also understood, and they negotiated the price after a short time and handed over some silver taels.
The boss also told him that although the coachmen here are not as good as the drivers of the wealthy or wealthy families of the empire, the drivers here also have many years of experience, and the novice drivers generally do not use them, so they can rest assured.
After listening to this, Luo Xing and the others didn't feel too much, they just wanted to have a car to sit on, aren't the horses all about the same?
Not long after, there was a sound of horses' hooves outside the store, and a carriage with a large carriage stopped in front of the door, and a middle-aged coachman in good spirits jumped out of the carriage to welcome Luo Xing and the two into the car.
The two brothers lifted the curtain and pulled the door, and suddenly a warm feeling hit their faces, entered the car, closed the door casually, and saw that in the middle of the car, a small charcoal brazier with a fastened lock was fixed on a fixed shelf, and the temperature was dissipated.
I don't know how long later, the carriage drove out of the east gate of Mocheng and galloped quickly eastward along the official road.
Inside the carriage.
Liu Dafu frowned and said, "Brother Luo, why do you think the two of them are in such a hurry to leave?" Yu Shiqiu is okay to say, his father is a bookkeeper, and he has his own pursuits, but Mo Liyang suddenly changed his mind, but I don't quite understand. β
"Actually, I've been struggling with this issue, it stands to reason that with Brother Mo's character, he has made a promise, and he shouldn't make a move that doesn't count, I guess it's affected by Yu Shiqiu's departure."
"Yes, I think so too." Liu Dafu replied affirmatively.
Luo Xing said helplessly: "Forget it, I don't want to, maybe I will meet it in the future, and the dean is right, maybe they are just passers-by in our lives, I hope they can all achieve something in the future." β
"Well, hopefully, let's work hard."
"Dafu, otherwise, let's go to Ping'an City to see Yu Shiqiu first, if we really don't agree, then we will never force it, how about it?"
"It's okay, it's a drop by anyway."
Luo Xing nodded, told the driver the itinerary again, and then opened the window and lifted the curtain to look out.
In the afternoon of the same day, the carriage arrived at Ping'an City.
I have to say that this carriage is really stable, but at this speed, it is never fast.
Luo Xing really misses the time when he was held by Bai Longfei at this moment.
The two brothers saw Yu Shiqiu, chatted for a while, and found that he still didn't want to go, so they gave up.
I don't know how much time has passed, and I don't know how far the carriage has traveled, but the road is quite smooth, except for the practice of staying in the store, there is nothing else to do.
On this day, the carriage continued to move forward on the road, and the two people in the car sat opposite, and it was the two brothers Luo Xing and Liu Dafu who woke up with some coolness.
Feeling the slightest cool air seeping into the car along the gap, the two couldn't help but open the window, lift the curtain, and look out at the cold wind whistling inside.
I saw that the sky was still slightly clear before going to bed, and I don't know when it started, the dark clouds were almost completely covering the whole sky, and it looked extremely gloomy, with a cold wind howling and scattered snowflakes fluttering.
The two brothers quickly closed the window.
Luo Xing said: "It's really unforeseeable, we just woke up, and it was already snowing outside." β
Liu Dafu also nodded affirmatively, and said, "Brother Luo, you said that it hasn't snowed all winter, why is it snowing now?" β
"Hehe, then who knows, maybe it's the old man in charge of winter, who feels that if there is no snow, it won't have a chance, so it should close and go home."
"Hahahaha, Brother Luo, you're really interesting, it will close. Huh? But that's right. β
The two brothers burst out laughing.
I don't know how long it took to go, but the sparse snowflakes that used to fly outside the window are now getting bigger and bigger, more and more dense, and the snow on the road is gradually thickening.
The coachman shook the whip vigorously and shouted vigorously: "Drive~ drive." β
At this time, the coachman was obviously a little anxious, because from the previous town to now, there are still more than seventy miles away from the next town, if the snow is thicker and cannot catch there, then everyone will be trapped in the mountains in front of them, unable to move forward, and the detour is too far.
After a long time, the carriage had already traveled to Jiudaoling, and if you went around the winding valley road in the middle of Jiudaoling, it would be a smooth road.
Jiudaoling is the shortest way from Mocheng to Bingxuan Town, with a total of eighteen bends in the valley.
As the saying goes, nine ridges, eighteen bends, bends and zigzags lead forward. The ditch is bumpy, the road is long, and it is difficult to fall and fall.
