Qinglian Lane Boy Chapter 6 Riding a donkey to the mountains and rivers
The territory of the country is millions of miles, with Fusang in the west and Wuyuan in the south.
During the reign of the contemporary emperor Li Zhengyang for 285 years, he ordered the general Chu Lisi to lead his troops to attack Fusang, expand the territory, and the army of the country continued to bite Fusang like a tiger.
Tianyi City, inside the palace, listen to the Phoenix Pavilion.
"Sword cultivator Wu Huai, meet the emperor. ”
A man with a broken arm knelt in the pavilion and said in a low voice. I saw that the man always lowered his head, not daring to look at the gauze curtain not far in front of him.
"Get up. A hoarse voice came to mind behind the curtain.
The person who knelt down in the hall of the pavilion was Wu Huai, who was seriously injured by asking for a sword on the sword platform a few days ago, and he seemed to be more calm than before at this time.
"The war in the west is tight, and Chu Lisi wants you to go to the town to guard. ”
"Cut off your arm, that kid is the prince of Fusang Kingdom, and he is also the most optimistic prince of Qin Gao. ”
The person who spoke behind the curtain slowly got up and walked in front of Wu Huai.
Eight feet tall, wearing a golden dragon robe, wearing an imperial crown, a yellow face full of pleats, and very majestic eyes, this is the reign of vigorously advocating the sword cultivation lineage, issuing an edict to raise troops to attack Fusang, and dedicating the emperor Li Zhengyang.
The tall and tall emperor 'Li Zhengyang' makes it difficult to associate it with a man who has lived for more than 200 years.
After the broken arm, Wu Huai always lowered his head, and when he looked closely, he found that his sword Huaicai was not on his body.
"I want you to go to the West for ten years, and after ten years, bring Qin Xun's head back to replace Chu Lisi. ”
Emperor Li Zhengyang stared at Wu Huai condescendingly and said.
"Minister, take the order. After speaking, Wu Huai stepped back and left, his eyes never looked at the emperor, and his left hand trembled slightly as he left.
After Wu Huai left, a figure jumped down from the beam in the pavilion.
"Your Majesty, do you think that after ten years, Huai will be able to defeat the ghost shark?"
The person who spoke was extremely frivolous, and his words did not seem to take Li Zhengyang to heart.
Li Zhengyang squinted his very majestic eyes and said, "Half of the six people back then have been invited by Qin Gao, and even the cripple in Qinglian Lane has been taken away. ”
The frivolous man plucked out his ears and did not speak.
"Yin Xuan, you go to the Western Zhou Dynasty and bring Li Junyao back to me within a year. ”
As soon as Li Zhengyang finished speaking, 'Hidden Xuan Sword', Gao Jizi immediately disappeared into the hall.
After Gao Jizi left, Li Zhengyang slowly walked back to the dragon chair behind the curtain and lay down.
A figure stood behind the dragon chair, and under the illumination of the lamp and candle, it was extremely terrifying to see this person's face, except for two godless eyes, and the skin was almost burned by a group.
......
"Chitu, let's go. ”
Meng Bai, who got up at the end of the day, took the donkey 'Red Rabbit' and set out on the road again.
The young man who changed into a cyan long robe, with a steamed bun in his mouth, held the map of dedication to the country found in the miscellaneous house at home in his hand, and looked at it carefully.
'Pengyuan Mountain' is located on the southern border of Daxian Kingdom, adjacent to Wuyuan Kingdom.
Meng Bai calculated, with his own foot strength, plus riding a donkey. Starting from Tianyi City, it takes a day to travel sixty or seventy miles, and it takes a year and a half to walk the 'Pengyuan Mountain' tens of thousands of miles away.
This time, how can it be enough to take a year and a half to be entangled, Meng Bai thought a little worried.
Fortunately, it is a young man's heart, and after playing with the donkey 'Red Rabbit' on the official road, he has long left his previous worries behind.
The official road is bustling with pedestrians, and some people pass by the young man from time to time.
"This little brother, I see that you carry a cage, why don't you ride a donkey?" a voice thought of Meng Bai's side.
Meng Bai turned his head to see that the person who spoke was a young man on foot, with a bag on his shoulder and a sword wrapped in a long cloth on his back.
"I'm afraid that the donkey will get tired. Meng Bai cautiously said perfunctorily.
The young man sneered: "You are really kind-hearted, don't you just use the livestock to summon you?" ”
Meng Bai smiled slightly, shook his head and said nothing, ignoring it no longer.
When the man saw the young man like this, he didn't speak, but just distanced himself from Meng Bai and walked on the official road.
After the 'Quicksand City' ten miles ahead, the boundary under the jurisdiction of Tianyi City was calculated.
As early as before the founding of the Yuan Shang State, the Yuan Shang Emperor did not divide the territory into states and govern the territory like Wuyuan, Fusang, and the Western Zhou Dynasty, but built cities in various places, centered on the cities in various places, and divided the jurisdiction of the land.
On the territory of the 700-year-old Xianguo, such as the main city, there are hundreds, and the boundaries under the jurisdiction of some remote cities are much wider than those under the jurisdiction of Tianyi City.
When I walked to Quicksand City, it was already the time of day.
The main city of Tianyi City generally has a curfew, and when Meng Bai missed entering the city, he had to settle down in an inn outside the city at night.
After leaving Tianyi City, Meng Bai found that there were far more sword cultivators outside than those in Tianyi City, and when he was on the road today, there were dozens of sword cultivators he encountered.
"Shopkeeper, is there any room available?"
Meng Bai, a young man who walked into a two-story inn outside Quicksand City, asked.
The seats in the inn are full at this time, and it seems that they are all people from the rivers and lakes, and they are temporarily settled here.
The shopkeeper was a thin middle-aged man, with an ordinary appearance, who was greeting the guests with a smile on his face.
may be the reason why the business is too good, the shopkeeper and the second child in the store did not hear the young man's inquiry.
Meng Bai looked around, and when he saw that no one answered him, he turned around and walked out of the inn, leading the 'Red Rabbit' to the stables of the inn, where dozens of horses were already full.
"Chitu, I'm going to wronged you tonight. Saying that, Meng Bai tied the donkey rope and fed the donkey himself, and then returned to the inn again.
After finding a small table in the corner and sitting down, Meng Bai did not call the innkeeper Xiao Er, who was busy making money, but poured himself a cup of tea.
Perhaps because the business was too good and a little too busy, the thin shopkeeper found the young man in Tsing Yi for a long time.
"Greeting the little brother, I'm not busy enough, what do you want to eat?" asked the smiling shopkeeper.
Meng Bai hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's okay, just find me an ordinary house, a plate of green vegetables, and a bowl of rice." ”
"Sorry, our rooms are full. "The shopkeeper is embarrassed.
"The room is full..."Before Meng Bai could finish speaking, the two tables of guests in the lobby were noisy.
"Shopkeeper, why don't you bring it up!"
The thin shopkeeper immediately turned around and said, "Guest officer, come right away." ”
Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't come back to greet him, Meng Bai sighed, left the inn, and came to stay with the 'Red Rabbit' outside the stable.
"Donkey, donkey, it looks like I'm going to spend the night with you in this stable. ”
......
Following.
The young man who had prepared enough dry food rode a donkey, carried a bamboo box, and walked on the road gracefully, looked at the map last night, and changed the official road to take the path after the quicksand city.
Looking at the vegetable garden and rice field on the side of the road that he had never seen before, the young man was in a good mood.
'Chitu, run for me, drive!' Meng Bai slapped the donkey's ass with his little hand.
The people who were farming in the fields in the far middle were very surprised to see the boy riding a donkey.
The young man rode the red rabbit to the side of a mountain spring, Meng Bai saw this water, immediately took off his clothes, jumped into the spring, and played in the water.
The red rabbit on the shore shook his head, wondering if the child was a little too stupid.
Meng Bai, who was swimming in the water, was a little depressed, and after going ashore, he sat naked next to the donkey and said to himself: "I haven't taken a medicinal bath for a long time." ”
"Chitu, grandpa used to take a medicinal bath for me every month, you know, it's extremely comfortable to soak in that vat that's taller than me. ”
At this moment, a three-inch flower snake slowly attacked the naked boy.
As if hearing a lot of movement in his ears, Meng Bai turned his head and saw that a flower snake was actually coming towards him.
Meng Bai hurriedly got up and picked up a branch at his feet, and shouted at the flower snake: "Demon watch me dance swordsmanship!!"
After stabbing the flower snake with a branch, the flower snake seemed to feel that the person in front of him was a threat, and quickly left.
Seeing that he had repelled the flower snake, Meng Bai crossed his hands on his waist and raised his head and smiled: "Hahaha! I am dedicating the national sword to cultivate Meng Bai! You will die!" A small loach swung up and down under his crotch.
After shouting tired, Meng Bai put on his clothes and led the donkey into the mountains.
"Chitu, do you think there are any tigers and black bears in this mountain? Leading the donkey on the rugged mountain road, Meng Bai was a little panicked.
The surrounding woods are towering, and the wild grass on both sides of the narrow mountain road grows taller than Meng Bai.
Meng Bai was afraid that a fierce tiger beast would suddenly jump out of the side and eat him and the donkey, "If there is a tiger at that time, it will definitely eat you first, you can help me drag it, and when I am successful in swordsmanship in the future, I will come to help you avenge your hatred." ”
With such a master on the stall, Chitu suddenly felt that the donkey eggs were a little painful.
Although this nameless mountain is rugged, fortunately it is not too high, if it is not a necessary road, Meng Bai will not choose such a deep grass mountain road if he kills himself, and what is even more desperate is that he has delayed too much time playing in the water at the foot of the mountain before, and seeing that the sky is getting dark, I don't know if I can go down the mountain safely.
On summer nights, there are many mosquitoes, let alone in the mountains and forests.
Meng Bai, who planned to go down the mountain tomorrow, took a lot of effort to make a clearing, and Meng Bai, who was lying on the grass, looked up at the starry sky, waiting for his eyes to not know what he was thinking.
......
After the Burning Festival, it will enter the third autumn.
The white young man who had left Tianyi City for a few months was now dark-faced, and the donkey he was traveling with was getting thinner and thinner, and he was depressed.
On the top of a green hill, a fire is lit.
The dark-skinned Meng Bai has long been unable to remember how many mountains he has climbed and how many rivers he has swum in the past few months.
There was not much left of the coil half a month ago, and there were a few times in a sparsely populated place, Meng Bai, who was hungry, looked at the skinny red rabbit is eyes lit up.
Frightened, the 'Red Rabbit' fled, and Meng Bai searched for a few days and finally found the Red Rabbit in a forest, only to find that the Red Rabbit was eating the fruit that fell from the fruit tree.
Later, after passing through a village, there is a cooking smoke rising, not caring about anything else, leading the red rabbit all the way to run wildly, the people in the village see the young man with a black face and thin clothes, and also lead a donkey with a skin and bones, thinking that he is fleeing the famine. A few days after the big fish and meat greeted, he gave him some coiled dry food, and Meng Bai, who was leaving, waved goodbye to the life-saving benefactor with chicken legs in his mouth, and said vaguely: "I will come back to repay you in the future!"
Meng Bai, who was sitting on the edge of the cliff at the top of the mountain, looked into the distance and muttered: "When I walked through the mountain, the mountain didn't speak, I walked across the river, the river ignored me, the little donkey ticked, and only the red rabbit accompanied me to the end of the world." ”
"Grandpa, Meng'er misses you very much. ”
