Chapter 432: People on the shore, hospitality has arrows
"Young Master, it's not too late, it's time to find a place to stay."
Awu next to him said.
Along the way, when he got here, it was rare for a family of hundreds of miles. When he thought of his place tonight, he felt a headache. He had no choice but to sleep in the wild. The worst thing was to look at the cloudy sky, as if it was about to rain. That was troublesome.
Chen Sanlang still stared at the other side of the river. His eyesight was always good. As he looked, he really saw some of his fiction. He saw the eaves vaguely among the lush trees over there, and it seemed that there were buildings like houses inside.
He stretched out his hand and pointed: "Awu, do you see if there is a house across the river?"
Awu and his two tiptoed to see, but found nothing except stones and trees. They shook their heads: "Young Master, I didn't see it."
Chen Sanlang touched his chin. He did not leave his beard, but only had a short beard. He thought for a while: "Forget it, let's go, we can't cross the river now."
"good."
The two of them waited for him to say this, and they stood there for a long time, looking at the mountains and waters. After looking at them, they were just like this? They were just here when they first arrived, and they felt novel at the beginning, but after a while, they were a little bored.
Or, this is the difference between a rough person and a scholar.
Dakui asked in a muffled voice: "Young Master, where are we going now?"
This is indeed a problem. They followed the guards, only Chen Sanlang was the leader, but it was also good to know the place to stay in advance.
“Where to go?”
Unexpectedly, Chen Sanlang even started to ponder.
At the moment, the granary of the Fucheng City was in a hurry, and Zhou Fencao and others were at a loss. They could not buy outside or produce inside. They were really urgent. Looking at the entire Yongzhou, there was only one place that was still stocked with a large amount of grain, that is, Yongzhou Prefecture and County City.
The Shipo Army was stationed there, as well as tens of thousands of barbarian troops.
Such strength cannot be underestimated. Otherwise, Chen Sanlang would have the will to raise an army to attack the prefectures and counties, so he would not have waited for someone to come to him.
In addition to prefectures and counties, if you want to get food, you can only get to other prefectures, such as Manzhou Zhongzhou. It is just a long journey and transportation escorts. There are various risk factors throughout the process, which is not a wise choice. Thinking about it, you will think of Tongtianhe.
Since ancient times, it has been said that you can rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and water to eat the water; there are treasures in the mountains and water, especially the vast rivers with abundant resources. If you scatter one net, hundreds of big fish will be salvaged and harvested very much.
However, Tongtian River is different from other places, the water flows wildly and turbulently, the fish live in deep places, and the rocks are densely packed, and ships sail on it, and accidentally hit the reef and sank. This creates extremely difficult environmental conditions for fishing, making it difficult for people to live and form villages. For thousands of years, the two sides of the strait have been vast and difficult to be civilized.
Chen Sanlang met with the "True Dragon Water Rewarding Art". Tongtianhe was fine for him. The key is that he was only alone now, with weak power, how many fish could he catch?
At this time, he missed Xiaolongnu, Crab and a few more. If they were there, many problems would be solved without having to be so troublesome.
"Walk down the river to see if there are any villages."
Chen Sanlang said, he didn't believe it anymore, and there would be no one living along the coast when he grew up in Tongtian River.
"yes!"
Awu and Dakui responded in unison, took the horse and left.
There are almost no roads here, they are all river banks. They should have been covered with grass, but in the severe winter, many wild grasses withered away, and the horse's hooves stepped on them and made a twisted and crooked track. But people were not easy to ride on, fearing that the ground was rugged, so they flashed the horse's hooves.
Dakui walked in front, pulled out his waist knife, and cut it off if there was too high a dry grass. Chen Sanlang was in the middle, followed by Awu behind him.
The three of them walked in a row, constantly looking around to see where there was someone.
"Puff!"
A sudden strange sound scared Dakui, who was responsible for opening the road. After a closer look, it turned out that two wild ducks nestled in the grass flew out.
Da Kuigang responded that the two fat ducks had already fluttered to the river and had gone away leisurely.
"pity!"
Dakui stomped his feet and if he could cum down, he would have a dinner tonight, which was delicious.
Awu looked disappointed behind him, and quickly held the bow and arrow in his hand to see if there was any wild game later. If so, bend the bow and shoot the arrow immediately.
After about half an hour of walking, the sky became more and more gloomy and began to dim. Sometimes some raindrops may come, but fortunately it was not too big.
This rain will sooner or later fall, and if you don’t find a place to settle as soon as possible, it will be very difficult when it rains. I’m afraid that it won’t even be able to get a fire. So how should I spend this night?
"Huh!"
Dakui, who was walking in front, shouted: "Young master, come, there is a road here."
When Chen Sanlang walked forward, he saw a path unfolding in front of him. In fact, it was not a big road, but it was enough to find traces of people moving. Moreover, it seemed that people often walked around. Going upwards, it was leading to the mountain on the side, and I don’t know where to extend.
"Walk!"
Chen Sanlang showed joy, and he didn't want to sleep in the open or be beaten by the wind and rain.
The three of them walked towards the path below for a quarter of an hour and turned a big bend. The front was suddenly cheerful, but there was a flat slope on the shore, which was very wide. On the flat slope, more than ten wooden and stone houses were distributed there. It was dusk, and smoke from cooking cooks floated out of the chimneys of these houses.
Seeing this, not only Chen Sanlang, Awu felt joy and warmth in his heart.
When the wind and rain return, the rice and soup are hot, and you will be excited when you think about it.
Dakui led the horse and strode forward.
"Dangdangdang!"
There were sudden sounds of gongs and drums, and they were beaten quickly.
Soon a large group of people rushed out of the house, each holding weapons, either harpoons or spears, and bright plain swords. They trained and arranged in an orderly manner, guarding behind the wooden fence, each looking alert.
Dakui's heart moved, and quickly lifted the knife in his hand and took a shield from the horse's back with his left hand. Because he noticed that someone was bent his bow and arrow in the other crowd, he had to beg his bow and arrow.
"Be careful, young master!"
Most of Dakui's shield protected Chen Sanlang.
Awu also took the shield, rushed forward, and guarded the other side of Chen Sanlang.
Chen Sanlang looked at the other party's formation and said loudly: "Don't be afraid, fellow villagers, we are passers-by. We pass by here and see it raining and we are going to stay."
"Who are you pickled people cheating?"
A burly man opposite him was thunderous: "Get out immediately, otherwise, don't blame us for killing people."
As he said that, he pulled the longbow in his hand, and with a swish, the next moment, an arrow flew over and shot on the shield that Dakui was holding, making a puff sound.
