Volume 1 The First Test Chapter 29 Climbing
It is estimated that the carriage is inclined to a large extent, and the half-asleep little girl wants to change to a more comfortable position, and tries several times, and finally reluctantly wakes up.
"Mother, where is this?"
"We're already in the mountains. ”
"Great! Brother Xu, I'm awake. With the big sword on his back, he pulled the curtain, and saw the surrounding mountains and rocks, ancient trees towering to the sky, and the front and back were full of chariots and horses trying to move forward, and saw that the young man was concentrating on driving the three horses. The so-called one monk carries water to eat, two monks carry water to eat, and three monks have no water to eat. It's the same with horses, especially when climbing, if you don't keep an eye on it, there will always be horses that don't want to contribute, and at that time, the young horsewhip will "snap" in the horse's ear to burst into the air as a warning. If the horse's leash is not tightened, the next blow will be on the horse's ass. That's why the troika is so difficult to navigate. The little girl looked at it for a while, and was fascinated, not only for fun, but also for the sake of something.
The young man, moving slightly to the left, motioned for the little girl to sit down, and seeing that the little girl was still thoughtful, he couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Xin'er, what do you want?"
"Brother Xu, do you say that cultivation is like a troika, if you want the car to run fast, the three horses must work hard at the same time, and there can be no horses that drag their legs and do not exert their strength. ”
The young man was stunned, the road is simple, the little girl can have this understanding, it is indeed rare, don't you understand this truth, your own understanding and realm and the body, skills and experience are too contrasting, on the road of cultivation, the river that should be waded over the mountain, one can not bypass one can not be avoided. Think about how many hardships and life conditions these monks have gone through after so many years of hard cultivation, how many hardships and various states of life they have experienced, how many times the world has been hot and cold, and how many life struggles they have seen after so many years of hard work. Sometimes the more high-level monks are, the more introverted, insipid, and life-saving. How can there be a risk easily, think about yourself as a fledgling and take the initiative twice, one is to be sure of your own strength, and the other is not to mention that you are young and frivolous and have too little experience.
Thinking of the little girl, her qualifications are one in a million innate cultivators, if the state of mind and body can't keep up with the speed of cultivation, lack of tempering, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, or adjust the speed of cultivation, Ping is very coordinated development.
Just as he was thinking, a silver bell-like laugh sounded in his ears: "Hey, little girl, is it still a sword fairy?" The young man looked back and saw that it was the woman in the power suit, her eyes were like autumn water, her face was like peach blossoms, and she applied a little powder, turning all beings upside down.
The young man hurriedly turned around and said to the little girl: "Say hello to this sister, my sister will take care of her along the way." ”
The woman in the power suit said with a smile on her face: "This little brother, his mouth is really sweet, I can be your aunt, and I can also be my sister, my sister's name, the person who calls is really comfortable." ”
The little girl was very immune to the woman in the power suit, and said seriously: "Sister, no, aunt, I'm not a sword fairy, my aunt is a sword fairy, I think my aunt is very powerful!"
At this time, Xin'er Niang poked her head out, played a round for the two of them, and apologized to the woman in the suit: "This sister, the children are not sensible, don't mind." ”
No matter how spicy a woman is, she will not tease other people's teenagers in front of her mother.
The woman in the power suit put away her coquettishness, and said with a smile: "Oh, this eldest sister, don't say that, you are a pair of golden boys and girls, you like it, the road is far away and difficult to travel, laugh with the children to relieve boredom!"
Turning his head to the little girl, he said gently: "This little sister, with a sword on her back, has she grown up to become a sword immortal?
Since people talk to the child kindly, Xin'er Niang stopped saying more, looked at the little girl with a smile, and seemed to encourage the child to answer other people's questions well, while the teenager focused on driving without squinting.
"Auntie, Xin'er wants to be a sword immortal when she grows up, protect my mother, protect my brother, and Uncle Zhao. Only then did the little girl react and looked around: "Brother Xu, what about Uncle Zhao, I thought it was difficult to go uphill, Uncle Zhao drove the horse in the car and walked by himself." ”
"The four of you?" the woman in the suit was a little surprised, these four people didn't seem to be a family.
Then the boy replied, "We have one more, in the back, and will follow in a moment." ”
"Well, we'll talk about that then. The woman in the strong suit said that it was refreshing, and continued: "My aunt is not a sword fairy, and I don't look down on those who are sanctimonious. Pointing to the body, the two of them looked at it, the woman's power suit was similar to a cuirass, and the armor pieces on it were a bag, and each bag had a black metal ring on it, and a small silk cloth strip was tied to it, hiding a flying knife, which turned out to be a pair of knife armor. The little girl stuck out her tongue and said, "Auntie, how many flying knives do you have to have?"
The woman in sword armor smiled slightly, her face suddenly became solemn, her hands shook in the air, two flying knives circled and flew out, and the two leaves on the big tree ten zhang away were cut off by Qi Shan. The cold light flashed, and the two flying knives were back in the woman's hands. The two leaves with the petioles cut off are only then falling with the wind.
"It's amazing, it's amazing, my aunt is amazing. The little girl clapped her hands and applauded, and the young man also secretly thought, this sword and armor woman's blow was not inferior to the speed of the flying sword in the early stage of foundation building, and she was amazed, and there were also merchants around who saw this scene and praised it. If there is a bandit, before he gets close, he has already cut his throat. At the same time, I was relieved a lot about the three-day journey, and I couldn't help but feel that this trip was worth it.
"Little sister, do you want to learn?"
The young man's heart was shocked, didn't he come to pay attention to the little girl again? It seems that this little girl can't carry this big sword again, it's too eye-catching, too ostentatious.
"No, auntie, Xin'er wants to be a sword fairy! The little girl thought for a moment, shook her head, and said.
The woman in the sword armor seems to be angry, little girl, it is in vain to show off my public appearance.
"Sister Su, are you in love with an apprentice again? Another young woman among the five had a short green sword about two feet long. Although she is not outstanding, she is sassy and heroic, and she is a heroine among women at first glance. looked at the big sword behind the little girl, and couldn't help but laugh:
"Little sister, do you want to learn the sword from your sister?
"Sister, do you know how to fly with a sword?"
This little girl regards the flight of the sword as a symbol of the sword fairy, and the second girl smiled a little bitterly, you little girl, you don't want to learn from us, just say it. Take the Jindan Realm to pressure us, you know very well, but whoever enters the Jindan Realm is not concentrating on the Immortal Dao, and will be a dart master for one or two taels of silver.
The woman in the sword and armor laughed at the woman with the green sword: "Sister Qiao, the little girl is ambitious, and she wants to fly before she learns to walk, and she can't beat people with just a sword." ”
"Brother Xu, look, what a high slope!"
Turning a corner, there is a steep slope that spirals very high, and towards the high mountain in front of you, it seems that there is no end in sight, but it feels very long.
The people in front of them got out of the cart to help the animals pull up together, even if they were on horseback, and they were able to get off and lead the horses up. Take care of the foot strength of the livestock and do not let the strength of the livestock be overdrawn, otherwise even if you can get out of the Kuaiqiu Post Road, the livestock will get seriously ill. In addition, the uphill slope is steep, and it is even more uncomfortable to sit in the car. All three of them also got out of the carriage, and the young man pulled the wheel together, and the mother and daughter also watched from the side.
The two women of the dart board also dismounted and led the horses uphill, everyone was struggling to go uphill, and they all stopped talking, this difficult road walked for nearly an hour, the three carriages of the young man were fine, there were many vehicles of the cattle were spewing white gas, everyone was out of breath, the little girl was tired and couldn't walk, only lying on the back of the young man.
The boy didn't feel tired, looked at the people around him, everyone was trying to control the carriage and horses, not to let the cattle go fast, let alone let the cattle stop, once stopped, it was even more difficult to move forward, and if it was not good, it would be disastrous, and it was not impossible to fall off the cliff.
In difficult times, it is not to do your best, not to move forward, not to retreat, but to grit your teeth and persevere.
The seemingly long ramp is conquered inch by inch, step by step, and by zhang.
It's another curve, I don't know how many corners have passed, and everyone has become numb.
"Come slowly, everyone, the top of the slope will be there soon. The burly man who walked in the head shouted in his trademark voice.
There was a lot of jubilation, just when people didn't know how long it would take to reach the top of the slope, just when some people didn't know if they could hold on, this voice came so timely that almost some people were about to cry, really?
"There was a flat place in front of us, and after two or three hours, we rested for half an hour, and everyone ate, and the cattle fed, and there was a stream beside it. The burly man continued to shout.
As the first car climbed to the top of the slope and let out a heart-rending shout, other vehicles climbed to the top of the slope one after another, and everyone who reached the top of the slope was vented with a few long whistles, and the echoes of the surrounding green mountains were swirling.
The boy carried the little girl on his back and dragged the carriage to the top of the slope, and the first thing he saw was that there were still peaks in front of him, and there were still higher mountains waiting. The little girl patted the boy on the back, and the boy turned back to see the huge city of Subong, as small as a chessboard.
"Uncle Zhao should have arrived!"
