Chapter 30: Going Out Badly
Because the elixir of the Great Wilderness World is very rare, there is no grade, but the year can be identified according to the degree of vitality containment. This time, the crimson Zhu Yuanguo sent by Yang Zhen seemed to be flowing with blood, and it was also carrying high temperatures, and it was estimated that there were more than 50 years of vitality precipitation!
Xia Xiao played with it and said to himself:
"It's a bloody investment. ”
Yang Zhen is a good official, he does not suck the blood of the people, but he does not reserve his own blood. If it goes on like this, I wonder what will happen in the future?
"Leaving tomorrow?"
Xia Jinghong asked, and everyone who walked into the courtyard looked at him.
"Well, I'll pack up my things with Shu Shuang in a while, and now that Longgang is fine, it's better to go over early!"
Xia Xiao left, and the family dispersed, but everyone was as happy as possible, which is not a bad thing after all. All the young eagles will leave the nest, and the sooner they leave, the wider the world will be!
In the room, Xia Xiao was packing up his things, and Shu Shuang was helping on the side. They don't have many things, especially Xia Xiao, just a few clothes, some of which they really can't wear, but they are still packed into backpacks. It's also raw ashes when you put it away, so it's better to bring it, it can always come in handy.
Some time ago, the precious silk sent by Yang Zhen had been made into clothes by Xiao Rong and Xia Wan, and at this time it was packed in a bag by Xia Xiao, and then put it in the bag. No matter what, it's all precious because of the few!
Looking at the two large backpacks, Xia Xiao sat in the room and looked around the cabin.
Compared to the once luxurious Xia Mansion, such a house is really terrible. The paper in the windows was tattered, and the room was full of holes inhabited by cockroaches and rats, and in some places it was blackened with a few cobwebs. But it is such a room that has witnessed his rise and growth.
"If nothing else, as soon as I leave tomorrow, I will never come back!"
Xia Xiao's tone was very light, and it was difficult to hide a trace of sadness in it.
Rongcheng is not particularly far from Longgang, if you ride a horse, you can set off in the morning and arrive in the evening. But Xia Xiao will get a place in the local competition there, and then go directly to Wanling Valley, and when he enters the finals through Wanling Valley, he will go to the imperial capital. There is naturally a buffer period during this period, but time is precious, Xia Xiao needs to practice quietly, otherwise the distance between him and those strong people will become bigger and bigger.
He has his own plan, and there is no Longgang in the plan.
"No matter where you go, I will accompany you!"
Shu Shuang looked at Xia Xiao affectionately, and the latter turned his head and looked at each other for an instant, as if it were eternal.
"What should I do with this Zhu Yuanguo?
It took a long time for Xia Xiao to ask, he didn't know much about the elixir.
"It works best when it is made into a pill. ”
"Will you?"
"Yes!"
Xia Xiao felt that Shu Shuang didn't seem to know anything, as small as threading needles and threads, and stir-frying at housework. As big as practicing battles, making pills, and making medical skills, he can do anything.
The longer they got along, the more Xia Xiao felt that the master was right, and he simply gave himself a baby.
Watching Shu Shuang start making medicinal pills, Xia Xiao began to practice again.
This night, Xiao Rong made Xia Xiao's favorite roast chicken, and kept serving him dishes at the dinner table, as if he had nothing to eat as soon as he left.
Early the next morning, the two were ready to leave.
Xia Jinghong and Xia Xu led the two horses, and Xiao Rong and Xia Wan snuggled on both sides of Xia Xiao.
"When you arrive in Rongcheng, remember to report your peace, and the matter of a letter will not take too much effort. Then find a good place to live, don't save money, and wait until next year when we go back to the imperial capital, and we can get back the Xia family's property. ”
"Actually, I really can't rest assured of you, if you leave, you will stay in Rongcheng for at least three months, you must take care of yourself, and remember not to conflict with others. If something really happens, you must pay attention to proportion, and now is no more than it was then. ”
"Also, don't be in a hurry to cultivate, some time ago you always wanted to know what kind of ability Jumang could bring you, at least until the Venerable Realm, you know?"
Xia Wan didn't speak, because Xiao Rong kept talking. Even if Xia Xiao is beyond ordinary people, how can she not worry about her children as a mother? This is the first time Xia Xiao has been outside for so long, and she will probably not be able to sleep for several days when she goes back.
"Don't worry, mother. ”
Xia Xiao's footsteps stopped, he had already left the city gate, and he could send it here.
Xiao Rong knew that she had said enough, so she didn't nag anymore, she just hugged Xia Xiao and let go for a long time.
"Second sister. ”
Hugging Xia Wan, Xia Xiao felt a different kind of sadness in his heart. He finally has a family, and now he is separated from his family again, but in order to become stronger, some things must be faced alone.
"Soon we will be able to actually go home. ”
Xia Wan's graceful figure trembled slightly, her nose was sour, and a tear stain crossed her little face with light makeup. She hugged Xiao Rong and choked a few times, Xia Xiao had to bear too much alone!
Bumping fists with their father and eldest brother, their eyes were firm, but when Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang got on the horse together, they still had a lot of reluctance in their eyes.
"Be careful all the way!"
In response to Xia Jinghong, it was Xia Xiao's shouting.
Two horses, one sitting on a man and one on a pack, headed east.
Xia Xiao thought that parting would be a long thing, but when he turned around, his family was gone, and only Shu Shuang in his arms was left.
walked silently for a long time, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang didn't speak. But Xia Xiao would occasionally glance at Shu Shuang, from his point of view, what he saw was Shu Shuang's lubricated little face, and after a long time, Xia Xiao's heart lit up with slight ripples.
At noon, the sun was so hot that it dazzled people's eyes, so Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang dismounted and led them to rest under the tree.
After taking a sip of water, there was a loud noise on the side of the road. Xia Xiao subconsciously stood in front of Shu Shuang and pulled out the dagger on his leg. But no one came, and when he got up, Xia Xiao noticed that there was a car accident over there.
"Do you want to check it out?"
Shu Shuang was obviously a little worried, but she was a member of the church.
"Go ahead!"
Xia Xiao tightened the rope that tied the horse and followed behind Shu Shuang, with a high degree of vigilance.
On the way, two carriages collided together, and four horses lay on the ground, dying. The two carriages fell to the ground and broke a corner, and the wails and cries of children were heard from inside. But the worst thing was the driver, who flew far away and rubbed a trail of blood on the ground.
Shu Shuang's little face was anxious and ran over, while Xia Xiao helped out the people in the carriage.
"Slow down. ”
"Thank you!
The first to be handed out was a child, about two or three years old, whose head had been broken, and who was crying at this time. Then came a ten-year-old boy, followed by a simple couple.
Three men came out of the other carriage, with sharp beaks and monkey gills, not like any good people, and immediately scolded:
"Don't you have long eyes when you drive? We've been yelling for a long time, haven't you heard?"
The man who protects his wife and children does not show weakness, and when he quarrels, he obviously lacks confidence.
"This road is already narrow, there is still a lot of grass on both sides, we have given way, obviously you are driving too fast, which caused the loss of control and crashed. ”
"You talk well, don't reverse right and wrong, lose money anyway!"
The three men stepped forward and forced the man to look at his wife and children behind him. How can he beat three by himself? The honest man saw Xia Xiao beside him, and hurriedly asked:
"Little brother, you were next to you just now, tell me whose responsibility it is?"
The three men also looked at Xia Xiao, but the latter only glanced at the person lying in the grass.
"I didn't see it just now, but if you don't save him, I'm afraid he will die in this wilderness!"
When the three men heard this, they ran over. Seeing this, Xia Xiao frowned, since the first thing in the car accident was not to save people, he was really convinced!
"Take out something useful and step aside!"
After Xia Xiao finished speaking, several people took out all the things in the carriage. Now the wheels of both carriages are broken, and the horses have also been injured and cannot walk for the time being.
Xia Xiao swept the road and kicked the broken wooden planks of the carriage to both sides of the road, otherwise something similar would have to happen later.
This car accident was very natural, not like it was intentional, and there were no cultivators among these people, so Xia Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.
The Zhu family, the guy who sealed himself, and the person who turned into a human in the mouth of the old monk all made Xia Xiao maintain a high degree of vigilance, lest if he was not careful, he would die at his hands!
Walking to Shu Shuang's side, the latter used up all the gauze he had brought, and was roughly bandaging everyone with strips of cloth at this time.
"Alright, that's it!"
Shu Shuang exhaled and held on to the tree, exhausted. There were nine people in total, all of whom were injured, and two of them were unconscious, although there was no major problem, but it took a lot of effort to deal with the wounds.
"Give. ”
Xia Xiao handed out a kettle, which made Shu Shuang feel better.
The little hand patted the undulating chest, and then screwed the bottle cap on, Shu Shuang said:
"Let's go!"
A few drops of water flowed out of the corners of his mouth, causing Xia Xiao to laugh.
Shu Shuang stretched her neck, turned her head a little embarrassed, and wiped it off.
"No hurry, let's camp for one night. ”
If it was only Xia Xiao alone, he would probably leave, and now this point can reach Rongcheng an hour or two after dark, which is not too late. But Xia Xiao knew that Shu Shuang didn't really want to go, in this wilderness, these guys were still injured, if they couldn't stop the car, and if they encountered wild beasts at night, it was estimated that they would only be eaten.
"Good~"
Shu Shuang was extremely well-behaved, and walked to the side of the road with Xia Xiao, where the three men and the honest husband were all sitting here, trying to stop the car, but two hours passed, and it was almost dark, and no carriage was found.
Some really can't help, and a car is already packed. Some left indifferently without saying a word. There are even some who don't even stop the car, and they look like whoever dares to stop me will hit and kill whomever I want.
"Damn! What are these people all brains for? We're not bandits, what's wrong with giving them a ride?"
"That's it!"
"Forget it, tomorrow morning, when the fourth child wakes up, we will go back, and we should be home in the afternoon. ”
"Well, that's all there is to it. ”
......
"Come and help. ”
Picking up the wooden planks of the carriage and pulling some hay, Xia Xiao used two daggers to raise a fire under the tree, which looked as beautiful as the burning clouds in the sky.
I didn't bring much dry food, so I handed a rice ball to Shu Shuang, and it was dinner.
On the side, the honest man saw it and held some jerky.
"Thank you two today, let's eat some jerky to cushion your stomach. ”
A few men over there were a little embarrassed when they saw it, but they didn't have anything, only a few pieces of bread, but they couldn't lose face!
"Little brother, are you going to Rongcheng in this direction?"
"Yes!"
"Long stay?"
"What's wrong? Show us the house?"
The man scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
"That's not it, but my brother opens a restaurant in Rongcheng, called Tianfu Little Kitchen, hehe, the store is not small, I have time to sit down!
"Thank you. ”
Xia Xiao didn't take it seriously, who wouldn't say this kind of thing? After taking a bite of the jerky, he frowned.
