The wagon drove along the forest road.

The stones in the car were arranged in a bamboo box, there was a bamboo kettle, as well as a change of clothes, a small leather bag containing the dried meat and dry food of the hare given by the mother, and two pairs of straw sandals and cloth shoes given by Mo Lao at the bottom of the box.

"Dunzi, you can sleep when you get in the car, what a pig."

Xiao Chai pointed to the pier and smiled, "You... You're the pig, and I'll be sleepy for a while when I'm shaking in the car."

The old man outside the carport laughed, "Isn't this good, the little dolls are still walking on the same path, and they can sleep if they want."

The dog climbed out of the carriage and looked at the old man and said, "Old man, why are you wearing an iron hat, are you afraid that the birds in the sky will peck at you?"

"Don't call me old gentleman, just call me an old iron hat, this hat is a soldier's helmet, it was worn by my son, he died on the battlefield, and when I saw him, only the iron helmet was still intact, and his body was trampled by war horses and people, hey. . . ”

"I picked up the helmet and took it with me, and when I thought about my son, I touched the helmet, and later learned that it was my son who killed the cavalry and took the helmet strap on his head, which is a kind of pride."

Erwang interjected and asked, "Aren't you the old man in the iron hat walking in the convoy all year round, how can the child go to the battlefield?"

The old man in the iron hat was full of wrinkles and clear eyes, and recalled looking at the sky, "I was rescued by Zheng Lao, we are in the same village, I wanted to wear a helmet and go with my son, I was about to seek death and was rescued by Zheng Lao, and then I followed the horse team at his request, and I followed it until now"

The stone and the dog also came over, "How many days have we walked this way, the old man with the iron hat," the dog squatted and said

"Well, to Yue Guo, it will take a year, maybe half a year, if you want me to say that the time will be longer, by the way, what is your name little guys" The old man in the iron hat looked back

"Qian Ye, the name next to me is Zhao Shiyu, his name is Zhao Zhan, the name next to you is Qian Liang, and the pig lying in the car is called Qian Yunli. It's all the names given by Mo Lao" The smugness was written on the face after the dog said it, and the partners all bowed their heads.

The old man in the iron hat laughed, and the pier had already fallen asleep and snoring.

Everyone looked at the scenery and chatted, and the old man in the iron hat was smiling all over his face, and he hadn't been so happy for a long time.

In the carriage of the first car at the front, Zheng Lao and the strong man sat facing each other, and there were a few exquisite dishes on a small table in the middle, "Zheng Lao, your abacus is good, send the child outside as an apprentice, and one person can earn more than a dozen taels of silver, plus the money sent by Mo Lao, it is really cost-effective Hahahaha" The big man picked up the wine jug and took a sip

"Song Tao only has two children this time, Goudan and Xiaochai, and the boss promised a child to apprentice five ingots of silver to eight ingots of silver, and get the pass order called Zhao Shiyu in hand" Zheng Lao's shining eyes revealed the breath of gold and silver.

"I'm really with the right person, that piece of pass can be used in any country is a walkable official road, which means how many goods we can walk in a year" Songtao drank again

"You don't understand, this brand is worth thousands of gold in the world, and with this brand, we can transport official copper and iron, as well as salt. That's a golden baby."

Zheng Lao touched his beard and shook his head, and then the two laughed loudly.

The scenery is beautiful all the way, crossing the mountains and crossing the bridge, the stone and his partners have never seen the scenery, and they always talk and laugh with the iron hat

It was getting dark, and Zheng Lao pointed to a relatively flat place not far from the side of the official road in front of the head car, and the carriage of the convoy walked out of a circle in this place, and stopped just when the head car and the tail car were connected together.

When everyone got out of the carriage, the coachman untied the horses and took them to a grassy place where they rested and fed.

The bodyguards shouted and entered the woods, and they all looked at the stones in a daze and didn't know what to do.

The old man of the iron hat smiled and pointed in the direction of the dart masters entering the jungle and said, "They are going to catch game and fetch water, don't be stunned, go and help feed the horses and get some horse grass, you don't have to do the rest, okay go."

Shi Zi and his friends cut the grass to feed the horses on the tender grass, and after a while, the dart masters called for the game, which was still on the ground.

Then someone took out a thick and long bamboo bucket from under the carriage, handed it to the dart master on the horse, and each person placed it on the left and right sides of the horse's body, and then went to fetch water.

Others set up tents, packed food, and cooked food and water, all of which were done all year round, and this set was quickly completed.

The place surrounded by the carriage is just right, the size is just right so that everyone can eat and sleep in it, and the bamboo tube is full of mountain spring water when the dart masters come back.

The boiled water is poured into a large wooden basin, the dishes and chopsticks used for eating are poured into it, the freshly fetched water is boiled and the rice is put on it, and the boiled water is ready for the female family to use to wash clothes or bathe everyone.

It was really dark, and the five children of Shizi had already fed the grass to the horses, and they had been quick with their hands and feet since they were in the village, and they finished this little work in a while, and then they began to fight, and from time to time laughter echoed in the mountains.

The old man sat on the roof of the carriage shed and watched the children smoke cigarettes, smiling from time to time, reminding him of the past.

The dishes in the evening were really rich, roasted hare and roast venison, the pot was full of stewed meat, and the other pot was full of rice.

There are also a few wild vegetables, and everyone is eating and drinking around.

Zheng Lao and Song Tao sat at a table next to them, and the two of them were eating, drinking, laughing and talking.

Shizi They shook off their cheeks and ate hard, this is because they have never eaten so many dishes when they are so big, and the village is more bitter and has not eaten rice during the New Year.

The old man in the iron hat took out a chubby gourd in his hand next to them, and when the gourd was pulled out, the aroma of wine in it overflowed, and he was happy to eat a mouthful of wine and a mouthful of food.

The people sitting around were surprised to see the way the iron hat eats today, "The iron hat old man, you have been drinking, smoking and eating food for a long time today, why are you so happy today?"

The old man in the iron hat squinted and smiled, and his face was red, and he burped and said, "I'm happy with the children, so naturally I want to drink some."

The meal had been eaten for a long time, when suddenly I heard wolves howling and the horses neighing.

"It's really annoying, this group of brutes is here to make a lot of fun, don't panic the children, let's go and come"

Songtao got up and patted the dirt on his buttocks, picked up a torch in his hand, and followed by a dart master with a flat shovel in his hand and the small iron kettle in his hand.

In this way, the dart masters divided into groups and walked into the forest in the dark night, and after a while, a tree suddenly caught fire in the distance, and then a tree was lit at intervals around the rest area of the horse team.

Everyone unhurriedly cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and put them away, and the wolves were still howling around like a choir in the eyes of everyone.

The old man in the iron hat looked at the trees in front of him and said, "Don't be afraid, this is a common thing, the beasts are afraid of the fire, just dig a ditch around the tree, and you can sleep peacefully, as if the beasts sang to you and coaxed you to sleep."

A dart master brought animal skins and spread them on the ground to lie down and fall asleep, and the five children also lay on the animal skin mattresses, looked up at the sky and looked at the stars, and sometimes looked up at the burning trees, and there were people standing on the carport in all four directions around the carriage to stand guard and guard, and they were tired of riding in the car one day, and their eyes began to blur and slowly fell asleep.

After eating, he slept very sweetly, and the iron hat always walked past the children, and then walked to his sleeping place, smoked and went to sleep.

The night was quiet with stars twinkling, lit trees crackling and bonfires burning.

This night was peaceful, and at dawn, Shizi got up and kicked the dog with his foot, "Qian Ye is up, if you don't get up, I'll report your nickname, haha"

"Haha, yes, yes, you're more like a pig than me when you're full," he said, sitting on the dog's ball.

"He sleeps very deeply, so he won't wake up, I'll teach you," Erwang sat on the dog's face and made a loud fart.

The dog suddenly grabbed Erwang's thigh and pinched it fiercely, and Erwang's thigh hurt and jumped up, and the old man touched his leg in pain, "Good guy, you bastard, you learned this trick from Xiaoya."

The dog scolded fiercely, and then wiped his face vigorously, and when he turned around, Xiao Chai still closed his eyes and grinded his teeth and fell asleep.

Then the four of them pounced on it at once, stacking Arhats to press Xiao Chai out of breath, followed by a fight.

The old man in the iron hat came over: "After eating, you will wake up and make trouble, eat quickly, and then get in the car and we will set off."

Breakfast was also very rich, for the five of them, a pot of batter, sweet potato porridge, plus dried meat and pickles, immediately had a big appetite, and after eating and drinking, the carriage had already been set up, and everything was packed up for camping.

The convoy set off after Zheng Lao shouted and everyone responded, and the children in the carriage were all around the old man with the iron hat, but the pier was sleeping again, and the talkative and noisy dog said with a straw in his mouth

"Old man with iron hat, old man with iron hat, do we eat so well every day? ”

The old man in the iron hat smiled and replied, "People are full of food and spirit, horses are full and run fast, our caravan does not have a designated residence, and those who sleep in the open all day must be well fed and well-fed."

Shizi's curiosity rose and he asked, "What should we do on a rainy day?"

"Set up a tent and eat in it, dig a drainage ditch around, no matter how heavy the rain is, you will know when the time comes"

Then there was one question after another, and the old man was asked one after another, and the old man of the iron hat did not bother to answer.

Shi Zi ordered the dog to help the old man with the iron hat pinch his shoulders and rub his legs, and the old man with the iron hat was very happy along the way.

The days were spent in the carriage, and in the blink of an eye, seven days passed, and the caravan slowly entered Anseong, which was the most prosperous place in Min Province and the place where the population was most concentrated.

The carriage of the caravan slowly approached the city gate, a group of officers and soldiers stopped the carriage in front of their heads with official knives on their waists, and Zheng Lao smiled and said, "Leader Wang, it's good not to see you for many days, the old man is here to give you a gift."

The leader of the king was wearing a walking armor, fanning the wind with a folding fan in his hand, chuckling lightly on his face, and arching his hand slightly: "Getting rich again, isn't it Zheng Lao, your convoy is getting bigger and bigger, and a carriage has been added, go check it."

With a wave of their hands, the officers and soldiers checked up and down, so the people in the car had already gotten out of the car, and they were among them, and after the inspection was completed, they were allowed to enter the city.
