Chapter 127: The county seat
The two rode a donkey together, and the donkey also lost an extraordinary amount of water, and did not stop along the way, and at night, it had already galloped for nearly a hundred miles.
However, when the donkey got the water and ran to this point, it was also sweating like pulp, and while running, he was panting.
When Jiang Qiongju saw it, he couldn't bear to say, "I'm tired of getting water." ”
Yu Dao heard it, but a black line flashed on his forehead. He took out the whip and whipped the donkey three times.
Immediately, the donkey neighed, and the speed increased again. The two sat on the donkey, and their bodies couldn't help shaking and clinging to each other, causing Jiang Qiongju to exclaim softly.
After a while, a county town appeared in the eyes of the two of them. Within the boundary of Jiangzhou, there are more than a dozen county towns, all of which are centered on the mountain city of Jiangzhou, showing the trend of many stars and moons, and are scattered in the boundary of Jiangzhou.
This county town is one of them, the sky is already dark, and it is impossible to see the name of the county town from afar. At this time, the donkey also stopped getting water, and Rong Yudao sat on his back and thought.
Yu Dao's original plan was to stay in the county town, and the accommodation was convenient, but he suddenly remembered a scene in Jiangzhou City, and there was a faint feeling in his heart.
"No two?" Jiang Qiongju frowned when he saw him and asked in a low voice.
Yu Dao raised his head and chuckled, "Don't enter the city, follow the road and rest in the next county seat." ”
Jiang Qiongju nodded, but she hesitated and said, "But can the donkey still run if he gets water?" Yu Dao heard it and had to knock the donkey on the head.
"Uh-huh!" the donkey was struck by this, and immediately hissed, full of breath, and his voice was loud.
Jiang Qiongju was stunned.
By the time the two of them walked to the next small county town, night had already fallen, and the stars were hidden in the sky, only a full moon hung in the sky, emitting a clear glow.
The donkey stepped on the moonlight and ran to the gate of the small county town. The door hole in the county town has been closed, and the low city wall is still burning with anti-theft lights, as if there are veterans sleeping in the corner of the shed.
Yu Dao and Jiang Qiongju did not show embarrassment on their faces. Jiang Qiongju hesitated, didn't say anything, and just waited for Yu Dao to come up with an idea.
Yu Dao didn't seem to see the earthen wall in front of him, and he kicked the donkey to get water, allowing it to continue walking. But the donkey snorted when he got water, and refused to move.
Yu Dao scolded with a smile, "Foolish." He took out his whip and held it in his hand, and said, "Come forward." ”
"Huh. The donkey snorted, stepped on small steps, and moved his muscles in front of the earthen wall.
Jiang Qiongju didn't understand the meaning of one person and one donkey, and suddenly heard Yu Dao say, "Hold on to me." He held the donkey's whip and shouted, "Ride!" and the whip flicked and threw a ghostly light in the night sky.
"Crack!" the whip sounded, and the donkey neighed as it ran toward the earthen wall.
"Uh-huh!"
It raised its front hooves, kicked its hind legs fiercely, and directly jumped out nearly a zhang high, and then stepped on the top of the earthen wall, kicked its hooves urgently, and climbed the earthen wall like a dog gnawing on a smoke.
Jiang Qiongju was hugged by Yu Dao, looking stunned, this was the first time she had seen a donkey that could go up the wall.
"Whoa, whoa!" The donkey stood on the earthen wall, blown by the night wind, condescending, and fiddling with his two long ears, so unhappy!
"Foolish, quiet!" Yu Dao knocked on its head to make it pay attention.
The donkey spat on the water, reluctantly jumped off the earthen wall, made a thud, and ran into the county.
After entering the county seat, the two chose an inn and lived directly in it. The store was surprised, but didn't ask a word.
When she moved into the room, Jiang Qiongju grabbed the hem of her clothes and refused to move, she lowered her head and asked in a low voice: "No, how can you have a room, how to rest......"
When Yu Dao heard it, he pointed to the green gauze tent and said, "Go to bed." ”
Jiang Qiongju's body stiffened, and she couldn't help but raise her head to look at Yu Dao, and her face turned red.
Yu Dao put on his robe, sat on the round stool and said, "I don't sleep tonight, I've been tired all day, but you have a good rest." ”
After that, Yu Dao took out something from the gourd and pondered it carefully.
Jiang Qiongju saw this situation and stomped his feet.
She was secretly annoyed, she didn't wash or change her clothes, she lay down on the bed directly, covered with a big quilt, and didn't want to see someone.
Yu Dao saw her movements, glanced at her suspiciously, and then continued to look at the things in his hand.
"The heart of the prince of Jiangzhou, how do I feel a little familiar. Suddenly, Yu Dao's eyelids jumped, and he took out some strange fragments from the gourd.
The shards were charred and charcoal, but heavy as gold.
Yu Dao held the "coke" in one hand and the heart in the other, and carefully identified it. After a long time, there was consternation in Yu Dao's eyes, and he was dumbfounded: "This is actually the heart of the demon cultivator!"
He frowned and thought about it, and found that this situation was undoubtedly true, and after careful consideration, he found that this situation was reasonable.
"No wonder the prince of Jiangzhou mistakenly thought that I could 'change my heart', it turned out that his heart was not his own, but given by the demon cultivator. ”
So when I took his heart, he was shocked, but he didn't resist. Yu Dao's thoughts rolled in his heart: "If I am really a demon cultivator, it is really possible to be touched by him, and he can also live because of this......"
"But...... Why did the demon cultivator give his heart to the other party?" Yu Dao frowned.
After Yu Dao's examination, the heart in his hand is already Zhongcheng's immortal heart, and even only one line away from being able to break through to Dacheng.
With such a heart, the demon cultivator gave up when he said he would give up, and he had to make Yu Dao suspect that there was fraud in it.
After thinking about it for a long time, Yu Dao remembered his cheap master. Suddenly, he pushed away the table and chair, stood up directly, and made a noise.
Yu Dao looked at the heart in his hand in shock: "This guy wants to give up!!"
Demon Xiu's heart fell into Yu Dao's hands, still beating on its own, and his body was steaming and bloody, like a freshly picked apple.
Just as Yu Dao was in shock and his thoughts were spinning for a thousand times, the wooden bed in the guest room suddenly made a soft sound.
Jiang Qiongju covered the quilt and kicked the wooden frame hard.
......
On the second day, Yu Dao and Jiang Qiongju walked out of the room and came to the front of the inn for dinner.
Yu Dao yawned and explained to the shopkeeper: "Add eggs, soybeans, and soy milk to the black donkey, and there is no salt water for soy milk." "He had been pondering all night last night, and he was a little tired from thinking too much.
Jiang Qiongju was standing beside him with his chest crossed, with the same haggard face, as if he hadn't slept all night.
The shopkeeper looked at the two suspiciously, and hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, yes." ”
When the two of them sat on the edge of the second floor to eat, there was a rumbling sound at the door opening, and a puff of smoke and dust suddenly rose from the earthen wall.
"Ride, ride!" the three riders suddenly burst in from outside the city, attracting the attention of everyone on the street.
"Yu Yu!" the high neighing of horses sounded. Three tall horses appeared in everyone's eyes, one of them was fiery red like a red flame, and the other two were pitch black as carbon, and there was no trace of variegated on their bodies.
These three are all horses!
"Imperial Decree! From today, the Jiangzhou government will be abolished!"
"Everyone is under the control of the Dao Country!" said a voice that sounded gloomy.
As soon as he looked up, three Taoist priests were riding on a thousand-mile horse, all of them were dressed in dark Taoist robes, with long swords on their backs, and their faces were extremely arrogant.
"This, this, this ......" Some officials heard the sound and hurriedly rushed over, and then they heard this great rebellious remark, and they were all terrified.
When the three Taoist priests saw it, they smiled evilly. One of them drew his sword.
