Chapter 10: Tianxuan City
"What are you writing? You should say it quickly, what are you sighing for?"
Dang Xiuli was so anxious that she snatched the note from Su Minqiang's hand and looked down.
"My favorite parents, when you saw this note, I had already left Tianhua Town, please forgive me for saying goodbye. ”
"I thought about it for a long time, but I still decided to take the entrance exam of Xuanwu Hall, after all, I am seventeen years old, this is my last chance, if I give up like this, I am really a little unwilling. ”
"It is said that the entrance examination of Xuanwu Hall is as difficult as climbing to the sky, but in fact, I am not sure in my heart. If I don't pass the exam, I'll be back in about a month, and if I get lucky enough to pass, I don't know when I'll be able to go back. ”
"I've also secretly saved some money over the years, although it's not much, but it's enough for the road, so don't worry, Mom and Dad, I won't go hungry. ”
"In addition, Erhei and Lao Jiu also went with me, I knew that they were actually there to accompany me, and asked my father to make two more trips so that their families would not worry. ”
"And, Dad, you have to take care of your mother after I'm gone, haven't you always wanted to open your own baked cake shop? When I come back this time, we will open the world's first baked cake shop in Guxiang Village, the size of three rooms!"
"Finally, mom and dad, please cheer for me, one day, I will use my own strength to protect everything around me, and I will never let people bully you again!"
"Your son, Su Yu'er. ”
Dang Xiuli looked at the crooked font on the note, and knew that it was indeed written by Su Yu'er herself, and after reading it, she threw away the note in her hand, raised her feet and walked out of the door, but was pulled back by Su Minqiang.
"Where are you going?"
Su Minqiang frowned and asked.
"Of course I'm going to get him back! He has a few dollars on him, how can he not starve when he goes out?"
Dang Xiuli broke free from Su Minqiang's hand, and she was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"You go to the third master's house to borrow an ox cart, let's hurry up and chase them!"
"They have already left Tianhua Town, and they don't know which way they are taking, the world is so big, how can you chase?"
Su Minqiang shook his head and said.
"Didn't I say, Xiao Yu'er has grown up, since he can rely on his own ability not to alarm anyone to leave Tianhua Town, how can he not even solve the problem of food and clothing? Not to mention that there are Erhei and Lao Jiu by his side, and it is actually not bad to let the three children go out to see the world. ”
"Xuanwutang, when I was young, I was also very yearning..."
Su Minqiang's eyes flashed with the light of memory, when they were teenagers, they were also full of yearning for the omnipotent immortal world that flew into the sky and the earth, but later the blood in their hearts was smoothed out by life after all, and the dream that could not be touched was also shattered.
"Are you really going to let him go?"
Dang Xiuli stared at Su Minqiang in disbelief.
"What to let go or not, he is no longer a child, his own way, decide for himself. What kind of Xuanwu Hall, others can't get in, my little fish is so smart, I will definitely be able to get in!"
Su Minqiang shook his head lightly, looked at the small note on the ground and suddenly laughed.
"It's the size of three rooms, stinky boy..."
At this time, the merchant's convoy was speeding down the wide official road, and in the black jade box carried by the carriage at the back, three teenagers were lying together in a crowded manner, talking quietly.
"Where do you think you're now? I feel like I've been gone for a day and a night. ”
Erhei's voice sounded in the darkness, and his tone was full of curiosity.
"How can it be so exaggerated? Two or three hours at most. ”
Lao Jiu said speechlessly.
"We're all in the box, except for the black in front of us, it's black, and no one can see anything outside!"
Su Yu'er lay between the two of them holding the wooden box, listening to the two chattering and fighting along the way.
"Are you hungry? I've got some pancakes here. ”
Su Yu'er shook her head and said.
"Say it earlier, get me one!"
As soon as Erhei heard that there was something to eat, he hurriedly reached out and touched the wooden box on Su Yu'er's body.
"Hey, you save some food, this is our ration for several days. ”
Su Yu'er looked at Erhei who was holding the baked cake and gnawing wildly, and said quickly.
"Oh, I know, is there any water?
Erhei waved his hand, his eyes glowing and he looked at Su Yu'er's small wooden box.
Su Yu'er smiled helplessly, took out the kettle from the wooden box and handed it to him.
"Just this pot, you really want to save some drink!"
Su Yu'er and Lao Jiu reminded at the same time.
"Oh, got it!"
Erhei waved his hand again, obviously he was thirsty, so he took the kettle and poured it into his mouth, fortunately, Lao Jiuyan grabbed it quickly, otherwise he would have drunk it up.
Outside the box, at the front of the convoy, Li Guofu sat in the carriage, holding a sheepskin map in his hand and watching carefully.
"If you get to Tianxuan City, it will take about five days. ”
He searched the map for the nearest road nearby, but even then it would take him five days to reach Tianxuan City.
In this way, Su Yu'er and the three of them didn't know how long they stayed in the big black box, the water and food had basically been eaten, the three of them were hungry, and they were looking at the pitch black in front of them in a daze, and suddenly, there was a sudden commotion outside the box that was calm all the way, and all kinds of shouting and selling were endless, just like a gathering in Tianhua Town.
"Old Nine... Little fish... , how is this outside... What's up?"
Erhei turned his head weakly and asked, he was now hungry with his chest pressed against his back, and he had no strength to speak.
"You want me... Say it a few times, and I'm... I don't know..."
Lao Jiu was almost hungry and fainted, because he underestimated the amount of food Erhei's food, and the food brought by Xiao Yu'er was not enough to eat, although they ate a little bit every day, they still couldn't hold on to the end.
But there is also a good thing, because they eat and drink very little every day, so they haven't been in a hurry these days, otherwise if it is convenient in this box, I am afraid that the three of them will be disgusted to death by themselves before they reach Tianxuan City.
"You... Stop talking, knot... Save some effort..."
Su Yu'er shook her head weakly, and poured the kettle into her mouth with a kettle, but unfortunately there was no drop of water.
"Push no... Move..."
He reached out to push the big black box away a little, but he was weak at the moment, so he sighed, patted the shoulders of the two people next to him, and motioned for them to come and help.
The three of them struggled to push the large black box open a small gap, leaning into their eyes and looking out.
The three of them, who hadn't seen the sun for a long time, were almost blinded by the dazzling sunlight outside, and subconsciously squinted their eyes.
The bustling streets are full of hawkers, and the houses on the side of the road are all blue brick houses with tiled roofs, which look very good. The various bright and gorgeous silk satins worn by the passers-by made the three of them even more dazzled.
In comparison, the rally in Tianhua Town was almost like a play house.
"We... Arrive... It's over!"
A trace of excitement flashed in Su Yu'er's eyes, and the carriage walked forward, and they hid in the last box with their backs to the carriage, just in time to see the three big characters on the city gate not far away.
Tianxuan City!
After the convoy entered Tianxuan City, Li Guofu rushed to the unloading location agreed with the seller, and soon he saw a man in a black cloak waving at them.
"Boss Li, I am the one sent to pick you up, the warehouse is ready, and we will give you a good reward after we inspect the goods. ”
"Okay, please lead the way. ”
Li Guofu nodded and said.
The man led the convoy to the door of a large warehouse, and watched as the crowd moved the large black boxes on the wagon.
"Hey, this box doesn't seem to be as heavy as it used to be?"
Daqing Xiaoqing picked up the box on the last carriage, and Xiaoqing raised his eyebrows suspiciously.
"Boss Li, I've already set up a banquet in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion to entertain you, please move. ”
The man in the cloak suddenly said to Li Guofu.
"Then thank you, brother, let's move this last box in and leave. ”
After all, it was time for lunch, so Li Guofu was not polite, and waved his hand at Daqing Xiaoqing and said.
When Daqing Xiaoqing heard this, he didn't think about it anymore, and hurriedly moved the jade box in his hand and trotted to the crowd to gather.
"The Drunken Immortal Pavilion is not far from the corner in front, you can take the first step, I'll lock the warehouse and then go and drink with you." ”
The cloaked man said, pointing to the wide open warehouse door.
