Chapter 108: Raising the head
After Hu Buxi left, he didn't reappear, maybe he was angry and ran away, which was in Chen Tang's arms.
To be honest, he has no good impression of this unruly young lady, if you want to use a noun to describe the other party, you can call it: the unsound mind!
Crazy, childish and bewitching.
What's more, Chen Tang doesn't think he can beat her, so it's not easy to start.
So the best result is that the well water does not interfere with the river water, and the road is facing the sky, and each side walks halfway.
Nothing happened overnight.
After knowing that Hu Buxi was playing tricks behind him, Chen Tang let go of his thoughts, peeled off the painted skin, went to Yun Ji to have a full breakfast, packed ten large meatloaf, and then went to Yuelai Inn - his room was still there, and Shuzhen was well left inside.
Repack your bags, head out of the city, and continue your journey to the capital.
Walking is a monotonous and boring thing, and if you walk too much, you will form a certain mechanical habit.
As a basic human sport, walking more often is good for the body and mind.
Today the weather was quite cloudy and suitable for walking, but by noon, the sky was thickened with clouds, and it looked like it was going to rain.
It's summer, and the summer is rainy, and once it comes down, it's often tyrannical.
There is an oil-paper umbrella in the book, the quality is average, the light rain is fine, and it can't hold on in the face of heavy rain, so it has to be drenched into a soup chicken.
Chen Tang felt that he had to find a place to avoid it.
It's just that after looking ahead, I found that this section of the road is quite barren, which is in line with the words often mentioned by storytellers: you can't go to the village in front, and you can't get close to the store in the back!
Along the way, he has actually experienced many such sections. The country of Yin is vast and sparsely populated, and the so-called official roads are often pieced together in sections, and many areas, within a radius of 100 miles, can not see people.
Under such road conditions, there is a high probability of getting lost. As for encountering the scourge of thieves, the chances are also not small.
Therefore, when people want to go far away, they will basically travel in groups, looking for business travelers, or dart escorts, etc.
There are very few singles.
Chen Tang relied on his martial arts skills to choose to rush alone. Or it can be said that it is a time to break through the rivers and lakes.
As for the sinister factors that others are worried about, fear of getting hurt or something.
If you're afraid of this, don't go out at all, and eat dry meals at home every day.
He learned martial arts and practiced qi, so what did he do?
This world is so big, it should be: don't wait, the head of a young man is white!
After walking for another half an hour, the clouds became thicker and thicker, the wind blew, and the sky and the earth began to be gloomy.
Heavy rain is on the verge of breaking in.
Chen Tang couldn't help but speed up his pace, looking left and right, seeing that there were no people's homes between the hillsides on both sides of the road, or the land temple mountain temple or something, he could go over to take shelter from the rain.
However, as far as the eye can see, the mountains and forests are reckless, and not half of the tiles can be seen.
I'm afraid I can't avoid this rain.
Chen Tang had already considered whether to find a big tree and hide under the tree to hold an umbrella, but he was worried about thunder at the bottom of the tree.
Gotta get it!
Suddenly there was the sound of horses' hooves behind him.
Chen Tang was overjoyed, and when he looked back, he saw a carriage coming.
It was a wagon, with simple decoration and weather-resistant, and the horses pulling the carriage were sturdy, and the driver was an old-fashioned one, with a gray hair.
At this time, Chen Tang hoped that the other party was a routine arranged by Hu Buxi, and then stopped by his side.
Gotta get it!
However, the carriage passed without stopping.
Chen Tang blinked his eyes and sighed, feeling that he should beckon just now, maybe he could take a ride, at least there was a place to hide from the rain.
"Huh, or did it stop?"
Chen Tang saw that the carriage stopped in front. He immediately strode forward to see what was going on.
"Why is Childe traveling alone?"
The old man got off the wheels and asked.
Chen Tang glanced at him and replied, "I came out of Yuruo County and want to visit friends in Xinbai Town. ”
The journey to the capital, the next stop in Yuruo County, is Xinbai Town, the distance is not far, if you walk normally, you can arrive at dusk.
Every time he passed through a big town, Chen Tang would always find someone to inquire and ask for a clear route before setting off.
Moreover, he went to Beijing to take the exam, and he was famous, and everywhere he went, he could go to the local post station to spend the night, ask for directions, and even receive a certain subsidy.
These are all national welfare, although meager, but better than nothing.
The old man also looked at him and said: "The heavy rain is coming, the old man sees that you are a poor scholar, if you are wet by the rain, I am afraid that you will catch the wind and cold." So on, get in the car, and I'll give you a ride. However, my son-in-law is unwell and sleeps in the car, and when you get up, you have to be light and don't wake him up. ”
Chen Tang thanked him: "In this way, thank you to my father-in-law." ”
Soon it will rain, the heavy rain is not pleasant, and he has the four treasures of the study in his book, etc., and he is soaked in the rain, and it is inevitable that he will feel distressed.
Immediately lifted the curtain and got in.
There was a lot of space inside, with blankets, and someone was asleep inside, covered with a sheet, and only one end was exposed.
He was a young man, with a square face, his hair tied up in a bun, and a piece of beautiful jade.
It can be seen that he should be from a rich family. But also, those who go out with a carriage will not be poor.
Chen Tang carefully put down the book and sat on the ground.
Gotta get it!
The carriage moved around, walking very steadily, and it was estimated that the old man was afraid that he would be in a hurry, and there would be bumps, which would wake up the son.
Not long after, crackling, soybean-like raindrops sprinkled down and hit the carriage with a muffled sound. Very dense and loud.
The rain soon became a downpour.
Chen Tang was secretly glad that he got into the carriage, otherwise, he would probably have been drenched in cold by now.
There was another wind blowing, whining, and the tarpaulin of the carriage crackled.
The speed is even slower.
Chen Tang sat inside and began to close his eyes and recuperate.
After about two quarters of an hour, he suddenly opened his eyes and stared strangely at the boy who was sleeping on the blanket.
This boy slept too deeply, and he didn't wake up in such a strong wind and rain.
After thinking about it, Chen Tang opened his mouth and shouted: "Uncle, the wind and rain are fierce, why don't you stop on the side of the road and avoid it for a while?"
No one replied, I don't know if it was the old trick behind the ear, or it was disturbed by the sound of wind and rain, and I didn't hear it.
Chen Tang's heart moved, and he walked to the front, and his voice became louder: "Old man......"
He stretched out his hand to lift the curtain in front of him, and when he looked at it, his eyes suddenly froze: above the wheel, it was empty, and the old style was gone!
No one was driving the car, but the horse was pulling the car himself, burying his head and walking forward.
"You're pretending to be a ghost again?"
At this moment, Chen Tang was really a little angry, Huo Ran turned around and shouted in a deep voice: "Get up!"
grabbed the hair of the boy who was sleeping on the ground, and only took it gently, and with a bang, he lifted the human head into his hand.
It was a real human head, and at the broken neck, blood was dripping and dripping down.
