Slowly Fuchen walked farther and farther along the official road, slowly, even the city wall of Dongning City could not be seen, Fuchen looked at the somewhat hazy sky, so he rode the red horse that was not handsome, and galloped forward.

There was no one on the official road, maybe because of the weather, maybe because the city gate had just opened, and everyone was not in a hurry.

After running for several hours, it was finally time to eat before stopping at a small shop on a hillside.

"Guest officer, please inside!"

Stopping at the door, a little two stepped forward to hold Fuchen's horse and said politely to Fuchen.

Fuchen got off the horse, watched the other party lead his horse to the stable, fed the hay, and then unloaded the sack on the horse and moved it over, and then said politely: "Guest officer, please inside!"

Fuchen walked inside with a burden, no way, although he went out with dry food, but he didn't bring water.

There was no one in the shop now, so Fuchen found a window seat and sat down, so that it was convenient to look at his horse, Xiao Er put the package on the stool next to Fuchen, poured a cup of tea for Fuchen, and then bent down next to him.

With so many years of experience in restaurants, Fuchen knew what the other party was going to say, so he preemptively said: "It's enough to have a home-cooked dish!"

"Okay, a home-cooked ......" Xiao Er repeated the words of the floating dust in the direction of the kitchen, and left before the floating dust reacted, and wanted to ask how to get the water bag, no way, the small place and the "Laifu Restaurant" can't be compared.

I had to go to the counter to ask the shopkeeper, and I put down the burden on my shoulders and walked towards the counter, but the knife on my waist was not unfastened, so there was no need for that.

"Shopkeeper, I'd like to buy you two kettles and fill them with some tea. Fuchen walked to the counter and said to the shopkeeper, the two are almost there, and they can make up for the tea after drinking it on the way, and it is okay if there is no tea.

"Good guest, I'll send it to you later!" the shopkeeper said politely.

Don't worry about the price, it should be about the same as in the city, after all, it is not far from Dongning City, the folk customs are still very simple, and the knife on his waist is not for nothing, compared to going to Dongning City, he still has a little more confidence.

After a while, Xiao'er came up with a plate of lettuce fried bacon and a bowl of rice.

Fuchen tasted the bowl of dishes in front of him, and felt a little emotion in his heart, but it is no wonder that he has either made it himself or eaten at the Laifu Restaurant in the past two years, and he has never been to the restaurant much.

But I still ate this dish very seriously, and then asked Xiao'er for a bowl of rice, since I practiced boxing with the old beggar, the amount of food has also increased, after eating this meal, it is estimated that I will have to eat dry food for a while.

After a while, Xiao'er brought up two gourds filled with tea and put them on the table of Fuchen, and at this time Fuchen had already finished eating, so he stopped Xiao'er.

"Little Er checkout!How much is it!"

Xiao'er looked back at the things on the table and stretched out five fingers: "One or two silver." ”

Fuchen took it out of the clothes on his chest, there were quite a lot of things inside, there were a bag of gold for the little monk of Fangyuan, a money bag with little green, and his own money bag, he touched his own for a long time, took it out and poured a broken silver from the inside, and then under the farewell of Xiao Er, he went out of the shop.

The feeling of consumption is good, and he has one hundred taels of gold sent by Xu Zhang and Zhang Changling, two hundred taels of gold given by Jiang Xiaoyi, and a bag of gold from the little monk Fang Yuan, which is a lot of money, at least you can live in Dongning City for a lifetime.

Thinking of this, I thought of the old beggar saying that Dongzhou College needed to pay tuition, and I forgot to ask how much, and I didn't know if it was enough now, and then I thought of the money on my body, and Xu Zhang and Zhang Changling sent it to the house, I don't know what the old beggar did.

Alas, as soon as I go out of the house, I remember to forget something.

Xiao Er put the sack back on the horse and led it to Fuchen, who threw down another grain of silver and rode away in the other direction.

On the first day of the road, although there were some people who were reluctant to give up Dongning City, but the time was still very fast, so they could only hurry up, and as soon as they got on the horse, they rushed towards the official road, and there was a gust of wind and sand behind them.

When it gets dark at night, I find that there is no village in front of me, and there is no shop in the back, and it is not good to take advantage of the night to hurry, so I led the horse forward and walked again, trying to find a convenient place to rest, and after walking for a long time, I found a small shed made of straw and wood, which may be a place for passers-by to rest.

I had no choice but to settle again.

He tied the horse to the small wooden post supporting the pavilion, took off the sack on the horse's back, found some dry firewood, made a fire, sat down on the side, opened the sack, and found that there was not only a roast cake, but also a roast chicken, and a lot of dried beef.

On the light of this firewood, tidy up their money, when they saw Xiao Lu's purse, they couldn't help but sigh, this girl's handiwork is really good, and then poured the broken silver on her hand, opened the little green embroidered purse to prepare to put the money in, only to find that there were two silver tickets folded into a square, open it and see, it was two hundred taels of gold, and I don't know where the girl got so much money.

When Fang Yuan's bag was opened, there was not only gold, but also a piece of paper that fell down with the gold, and when he got closer to the firelight, there were five words on it, but Fuchen only recognized the word "Fuchen" in his name.

Put it away, don't worry about it, and ask someone tomorrow.

When I put all the money into Xiaolu's purse, it was still bulging, and I was very happy, but I didn't know what happened to Xiaolu's girl......

After looking at the purse for a long time, he still picked up the bag of the little monk Fang Yuan, put some loose silver in it, and stuffed it into the clothes on his chest with satisfaction.

In this way, I spent a night in the small shed cautiously, and it was not cold at night at this time of summer, but I did not sleep well because of my wealth.

The next day, I woke up at dawn, and my body was covered with some dew, so I didn't wait, and led the horse straight forward.

After a while, I found a place with a mountain spring and washed up.

After washing, I looked at the map, and the old beggar was really well marked, and all roads were marked, but it was a little crooked, and looking at the length, it was indeed too far.

He took out another piece of baked bread and divided half of the horse, not that there was no grass around, but that the grass with dew could not be eaten by cattle and horses, so they could only wait for the dew to dissipate or eat with him at noon.

When I was about to eat, I happened to see a person dressed as a scholar with a bamboo basket on his back leading a donkey, looking at himself on the side of the road, looking back, both of them stared at each other for a while, but the scholar swallowed his taste and looked a little scared.

"Hey, what are you looking at?"

Seeing the scholar's timid appearance, it didn't look like he was embarrassed by himself, so he took the lead in shouting, he couldn't weaken his momentum when he went out.

When the scholar heard Fuchen's shout, he wanted to turn around and leave, but he still turned back and pointed to the spring water next to Fuchen and asked tentatively: "Water, I want to drink saliva......"

"Come here!"

I thought it was something, but it turned out that he was thirsty and wanted to drink water, so Fuchen took a few steps back and motioned for him to come over and drink it himself.

When the scholar walked in, most of his eyes were fixed on Fuchen, more precisely, the direction of the knife on Fuchen's waist.

Watching the scholar drink the spring water, Fuchen continued to unfold the map in his hand, and when the scholar turned around after drinking the water, he pointed to several big cities along the map and asked, "What are these places called?"

The scholar looked at the map of Fuchen, his guard had been half lowered in his heart, and according to the direction on the map, he said to Fuchen in turn: "This is Dongtai City, Lishui City, and Nanling City, which are all in the territory of Changlin Mansion, and the following are Nanjin City, Sexian City, and Anyang City, which belong to the territory of Anyang Mansion, this is ......."

The scholar patiently followed the map of the floating dust, swiped his fingers, stopped in front of a black city tower, looked at the words on the map and said to the floating dust one by one which city was under the jurisdiction of which government.

"But Daxia, are you going to Donghai City, Donghai Mansion?" asked the scholar, pointing to the route.

Seeing this, there was still something he hadn't finished, and he didn't know what he meant, so Fuchen replied casually: "Yes!"

The scholar drew his finger on the line marked by the old beggar, and then drew an arc on that line and said: "This road is not very good, I suggest that the hero can go around here......"

"Look, Daxia, you have to pass through the Great Yuan Dynasty here, and if you go around, you will go directly from our Great Zhou to Donghai Mansion, so that there will be less danger of entering the Great Yuan Dynasty......"

Fuchen looked at the place pointed by the scholar, and it was true that the place marked by the old beggar was faster, but through another country, as the original border army, Fuchen knew the difficulties, and what the scholar said was quite right, but it was still so far away, so he was not in a hurry.

"Continue ......"

Fuchen said as he bit the cake.

Scholar: "This is already the territory of Donghai Mansion, this is Dengzhou City, Tianya City, Donghai City, and when you get here, you will reach your destination, I heard that Dongzhou Mansion is not under the jurisdiction of any dynasty......

Fuchen looked at the scholar and only drank a saliva, and now it was time for breakfast again, and he had been helping himself for so long, so he took out a baked cake from the sack and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

"No, no, bring it yourself!" the scholar refused again and again, and said as he pulled out a steamed bun from the bamboo basket in the back.

Fuchen looked at the scholar munching on steamed buns, and took out the note that Fang Yuan gave himself from his arms, handed it to the scholar and asked, "What is written on this?"

The scholar put down the steamed bun again and again, wiped his hands, took the note in his hand, looked at it carefully, and said: "The floating dust has no roots......
