Chapter 15 Hitchhiking

In the early morning, the sky drifts a slight drizzle, like a magic pen, after the countryside is painted greener, the mountains and fields are painted greener, it will be taken back in an instant, there is no trace of nostalgia.

When the morning sun rises, the warm sunlight evaporates the water droplets between the leaves and turns them into a thin layer of mist, enveloping the mountains and fields, looking fresh and leisurely.

At the foot of the mountain, there are a few thatched huts, on which is curling smoke, under the warm sun, peaceful and peaceful.

If there is a literati and ink writer who is in a hurry to pass here, and see this beautiful environment, he will definitely take off his hat and wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead, and then climb high and look into the distance, and say loudly:

"The road is narrow and the grass and trees are long, and the morning dew touches my clothes; it is not a pity for the clothes to be stained, but the wish is not violated!"

At the end of the song, he laughed a long time, put on the hat again, and the starry night hurried.

It's a pity that the literati and writers are really in short supply for this poetry and literature in the Wusi Tibetan country, so they wasted this beautiful scenery.

Although no literati passed by, there was still a person in a hurry on the avenue outside the village, but ...... He's too young.

A green shirt is tattered, and with the dust along the way, it looks a little dirty, and there are many scars on his body and face, his skin is slightly white, and he has a blanket-style thing on his shoulders.

The only thing that was a little surprising was the pair of smart and shiny eyes like black jade.

This person is Yuan Cheng, who is in a hurry at this time, and the target is Chayu County, which is dozens of miles away.

Yesterday, under the escort of the man, he went out of the mountains, and he found an honest hunter's house to borrow, although the man also meditated and practiced in a room, Yuan Cheng knew that this would be the last journey for the man to escort him.

Therefore, with the help of the man's deterrence, Yuan Cheng took out the smallest of the five elixirs and entrusted Orion's wife to sew this blanket for himself overnight.

Early in the morning, the man really said goodbye, and Yuan Cheng was helpless, so he could only hug his hands and thank him.

Seeing Yuan Cheng like this, the man took two steps, hesitated for a long time, did not turn around, and whispered:

"Your Tubo spirit is seriously damaged, it's best to find an elixir or a master to treat it within three months, otherwise it will be difficult to restrain the three souls and seven spirits at that time, and if you fly out of your body, you will ......."

Although the man didn't finish speaking, Yuan Cheng understood that when the time came, his soul would be scattered, and the gods and ghosts would be difficult to treat.

Therefore, not long after the man left, Yuan Cheng put Tubo and the elixir into the blanket and got up to say goodbye.

Orion is really a family, the elixir that Yuan Cheng took out last night is of good value, first said that he would escort Yuan Cheng to the county seat, but Yuan Cheng knew that he was a pillar of the family, if he traveled with him, wouldn't his wife and children starve for a few days.

Therefore, Yuan Cheng refused.

Seeing that he couldn't excuse himself, Orion took out the only eighteen copper coins at home, as well as the leftover pheasant meat from last night's harvest, and stuffed it to Yuan Cheng.

Therefore, at this time, Yuan Gong not only had four elixirs, but also a piece of meat that was enough for him to eat for two days, as well as eighteen copper coins.

This is also the reason why Yuan Cheng's pace does not stop.

But he was too small, and he had to stop and rest for a long time after walking for half an hour, in order to defend against the hunting dogs in the village, as well as the insects and beasts along the way, Yuan Cheng always kept a whistle stick in his hand, half a cut higher than others, which was specially made for him by Orion.

After walking for another half an hour, Yuan Cheng finally walked on the official road to Chayu County as people along the way, at this time his whole body was already soaked with sweat, wet and sticky, and it was extremely uncomfortable to stick to his body.

But Yuan Cheng had no other choice, he didn't have a change of clothes on his body, this body was washed and dried by Orion's wife in front of the stove last night, some of the big holes had been repaired, and most of the blood stains were gone.

Therefore, Yuan Cheng is now patched all over his body, and his hair is scattered, like a little beggar.

On the official road, Yuan Cheng didn't dare to go anymore, but sat on a cool tree under the rock, looking left and right.

It's just because, although the mountain road was difficult and the water mist was heavy, it was good to see people not far away, and there were naturally no fierce beasts and poisonous insects, so it was relatively safe.

But the official road is different, I heard that there are several mountains to pass through halfway, there are big insects infested in them, and there are bandits who have appeared, Yuan Cheng doesn't believe in the aura of the protagonist now, if he breaks through, he will either be torn apart by the big worm, or he will be abandoned by the evil bandits in the wilderness, in addition, Yuan Cheng can't think of other results.

After waiting for half an hour, I gradually rose into the sky, although my body was a little drier, my heart was becoming more and more anxious.

When looking left and right, Yuan Gong did not forget to quietly take out a piece of dried meat, as well as a small piece of Ganoderma lucidum, mixed together and put it in his mouth to chew.

This is the method that Yuan Cheng thought of this morning, recalling the man's expression two days ago, he obviously liked Yuan Cheng quite a lot, but obviously regretted and took care of it, and finally gave up with a sigh.

What kind of person is Yuan Cheng, that is Lao Bai, who has read countless novels, how can he not know that he is just the son of Gao Laozhuang, although his face is beautiful, but he can't change the essence of ordinary qualifications.

The last time I ate half of the ginseng, Yuan Cheng felt that the effect was quite good, so he came up with the idea of taking the elixir to wash the marrow and cut the bones.

The entrance of Ganoderma lucidum is warm and sweet, and the lips and teeth are fragrant, which makes Yuan Cheng, who has been walking for a long time and has been extremely tired, feel refreshed, warm all over, and dilated pores, which is very comfortable.

Click......

Finally, when Yuan Cheng was waiting for his eyes, a rumbling footsteps came, and at first glance it was a large group of people, which made Yuan Cheng overjoyed.

Sure enough, soon a group of people dressed in cloth clothes, tight pants and straw sandals, dressed as a long journey, walked towards him.

Then, Yuan Cheng saw the convoy, behind which was a cow-drawn cart, and in the middle, there was a carriage, which looked different, and the curtains around it were all dark cloths, which were even more luxurious than those on the men.

Seeing this, Yuan Cheng didn't want to think about it, and hurriedly stepped forward to block the way.

Sitting in front of the cloth bag on the oxcart leading the way was a fat man with thick eyebrows, seven feet tall and looking very powerful, I am afraid that he is the leader of the team.

When he saw a child blocking the road, he shouted behind him, and he immediately didn't like it, thinking that it was a prank by a naughty boy, and shouted with a calm face:

"Which kid is so ignorant, get out of here, don't be an uncle and hurry!"

Hearing this, Yuan Cheng retreated a little, gave way to most of the road, looked more respectful, and arched his hand:

"This uncle invited, the boy Yuan Cheng, is not far from the back of the mountain, just because the parents of the family entered the city the day before yesterday and did not return, leaving the kid and the fifty-year-old grandfather, it is really difficult, today I want to go into the city to investigate, how can I be alone, the road is long and blocked, can you go with one or two, the boy thanked him first!"

Hearing this, the strong man took a closer look at Yuan Cheng, with a look of surprise in his expression, but when he saw that although Yuan Cheng was dressed in shabby, his eyes were admitted, and his demeanor was respectful but not flattering, and he suddenly had a good impression.

"This little gentleman behaves extraordinary, it seems that he is not an ordinary person!"

It can be seen that the strong man is quite cautious, but there is not much boredom on his face, Yuan Cheng saw that there was a play, and hurriedly said:

"The boy has been taught by Grandpa since he was a child, and Grandpa was a teacher in the village, and he can read the words in the book. ”

Seeing this, the strong man nodded without a trace and said:

"You go to the back ox cart and sit with Niu Er!"

Hearing this, Yuan Cheng, who thought it would take a lot of twists and turns, was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked him again, only to run to the ox cart behind the strong man, and found that the person sitting in the car was a man with a black beard and a wide face, and a broad-faced knife was placed next to him.

The black-bearded man didn't seem to like words, but he just glanced at Yuan Cheng, then turned around and leaned against the mountain of sacks to take a nap.

As soon as he got in the car, Yuan Cheng found that Zhou Sheng was haunted by the smell of herbs, and he knew what kind of team this was.

Although the fat and strong man and the black-bearded man next to him had a heavy and coercive feeling, Yuan Cheng had a familiar feeling, but because he had been in a hurry for a long time and had taken the elixir, Yuan Cheng couldn't bear to be sleepy, and soon fell asleep leaning on the sackcloth.

The blanket containing Tubo and the four elixirs was hugged in his arms by him, and he looked very nervous.

Ten meters behind Yuan Gong was the carriage, in which sat a tall man wearing a blue scarf hat and a Su Qing robe, with a soft mutton fat jade in his hand, and a long sword lying flat on the couch next to him.

At this time, he was looking at Yuan Cheng, who was already asleep, through the shaking carriage curtain.

In his eyes, there was a deep doubt.

After a long time, he shook his head and smiled, and said in a voice that he could only hear:

"If you are really an ignorant child, you can still fall asleep in the face of countless people with murder weapons!"
