Chapter 36: Life and Death Unknown
Xiao Ruoshui watched Murong Chen ride away on horseback and say goodbye, his heart was also very lonely, he was about to separate again as soon as he got together, he sighed, turned around, and walked towards Jingyuan, Jingyuan had already prepared everything, dry food and water were all brought by himself, and they were all taken care of, there were more than a dozen carriages, and each carriage was guarded by a Taoist priest from Qingcheng Mountain, in order to prevent the coachman from drinking poisonous water and food inadvertently.
Li Yunmeng and Shangguan Yanran have been standing outside the mountain gate for a long time, just seeing off Murong Chen, and bidding farewell to Jingyuan and Xiao Ruoshui, Murong Chen is traveling far away, going to the place where I don't know what lies ahead, it is a place that cannot be guessed whether it is fierce or auspicious. Xiao Ruoshui and Jingyuan are places that are very close, but they are extremely dangerous places, and they are places where blessings and disasters cannot be predicted.
The three elders were already supporting each other, with a little tears in their eyes, they knew that what they were going to be gone might be gone forever, but they endured the sadness in their hearts, and waved their hands towards the group with a smile, respectively, for the honor of Qingcheng Mountain, for the entire Qingcheng Mountain to live in peace and stability, they had to do this, maybe this is a moth to the fire, maybe this is the last struggle, but they have no hesitation, even if there is only the last bit of strength left, they have to rush forward.
Li Yunmeng smiled on her face, how much she didn't want Xiao Ruoshui to go, but she couldn't stop him, although she was very domineering in front of Xiao Ruoshui, but her domineering was mostly for some inconsequential trivial things, and when it was time for Xiao Ruoshui to make a decision, she was no longer domineering. All that remains is to support him wholeheartedly and assist him.
"Xiao Jiu, why don't I go with you, I can help a little. Li Yunmeng said quietly, she smiled slightly, trying her best to pretend to be indifferent on her face, but she was extremely worried in her heart.
"It's okay, it's more useful for you to stay in the mountains than to go to the village, I'll be fine, I'll be fine. Xiao Ruoshui stretched out his fist and made a powerful appearance. Show yourself to be strong. Maybe strength is the best comfort for women at this time.
"Dead Xiao Jiu, give me a good back, if you lose a hair, I will beat you to death. Li Yunmeng held back tears. Threatened Xiao Ruoshui. She also raised her fist and waved at him. Grimaced at him menacingly.
"Go back, everyone else is watching. Xiao Ruoshui couldn't help but smile and pouted at her. Motioning for everyone else to look at her. After he finished the gesture, he made a nonchalant look, as if what had just happened had nothing to do with him, it seems that the young man's face is very important.
Xiao Ruoshui walked towards the first carriage, jumped into the carriage, and said loudly to Jingyuan, "Let's go." He looked relaxed, as if he were going on a girl's date, and his face was red.
But the coachman with him was not so dashing, his hands were trembling, and the whip he raised was not as crisp as that, but it hit the horse softly, and the horse walked forward slowly, completely without the galloping appearance of the past.
Xiao Ruoshui sat in the carriage, looking at the coachman's frightened look, he smiled and put his arm around the coachman's shoulder, and patted him: "Big brother, I am also a good coachman, come and I will help you catch the car." As soon as he stretched out his hand, he asked for the whip from the leader of the coachman.
The coachman looked at him with some suspicion, and handed him the whip in disbelief, but it was evidently much better and more relaxed.
Xiao Ruoshui took the horsewhip, raised his hand, and a crisp whip sounded across the sky, and the horsewhip landed on the horse accurately, and he shouted "drive" The horse ran briskly and ran in the direction of Shangwa Village.
"I really didn't see it, you were really a good driver, I thought you were riding a carriage like this. The coachman leader looked at Xiao Ruoshui's chic whipping posture, and he couldn't help but praise it, but the level of driving the carriage was definitely a good hand.
"I think I drove the carriage on the grassland for seven days in a row, driving hundreds of miles, this is what I practiced at that time, isn't it very skilled?" Xiao Ruoshui took the reins to control the direction of the carriage and said to the boss of the carriage.
"It's very skilled, there aren't many people who can drive here, most of them are by boat, but I didn't expect you to catch a car." The car boss was immediately shortened by Xiao Ruoshui's words, as if he had met his peers, and gradually forgot about the fear, and chatted with Xiao Ruoshui with laughter.
People always like to chat with people who have a common language, and the easiest thing to get closer is professional communication, and people in the same profession always have endless words to say, and they quickly become good friends.
The boss of the car began to relax, the carriage was also controlled by Xiao Ruoshui, and the atmosphere of the whole team became relaxed and happy, many people began to joke loudly, and even the young man who was unwilling to be lonely began to sing. The whole trip seemed relaxed.
Half a day has arrived at the boundary of Shangwa Village, the two Taoist corpses waiting by the roadblock suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Ruoshui's eyes, Xiao Ruoshui shouted to stop the carriage, the coachmen who were still singing just now have not moved, looking at the two Taoist corpses blankly, some of the timid have turned their backs, dare not look, and suddenly a terrifying atmosphere immediately enveloped everyone's heads.
Xiao Ruoshui jumped out of the car and slowly walked to the side of the Taoist corpse, the direction of the corpse was in the direction of the Qingcheng Taoist Temple, one was lying forward, and the other was lying on his back, they all showed a frightened expression on their faces, even after so long after death, that expression still did not change in the slightest.
Xiao Ruoshui took out a pair of gloves from his pocket, put them on his hands, first came to the corpse lying on his back, looked at it carefully for a while, and then fiddled with it for a while. Stood up and looked in the direction of the woods. He came to the lying corpse again, turned it over, looked at it carefully for a while, and then stood up again, and took a few steps, as if to measure something.
He walked towards the woods again, looked carefully at the woods, squatted on the ground for a long time, then stood up, took off his gloves, and carefully put them in a bag. beckoning to Jingyuan behind, Jingyuan walked over quickly and looked at Xiao Ruoshui. Xiao Ruoshui said to him: "Find a few people to carry him into the car, you can't let them be in the wilderness." He spoke in a small voice, but the anger in his heart was almost exploding.
Jingyuan looked at the corpse, gritted his teeth, and beckoned the people behind him to carry the corpse into the car.
Xiao Ruoshui watched as everyone wrapped the corpses and put them in the carriage, he jumped into the carriage, and walked into the village with a whip. At this time, a pair of eyes watched them walk into the village from a large tree, and a figure jumped down from the tree like a ghost, disappeared in the opposite direction, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
