That is to say, on the afternoon when Yun Suanmiao and the others returned to the village, Liu Dazhuang and Ding Wei rode to Yun Jing's house, told him that the procedures such as road guidance had been completed, and asked him when he could set off.
After receiving the news, Yunjing asked his parents for their opinions, and then told Liu Dazhuang and the others that they decided to set off early the next morning.
Liu Dazhuang and the others received a reply. Among them, Ding Wei was a little tired. He rushed back to town in the afternoon and informed Song Yan and others to be ready and come to pick them up tomorrow. Then Liu Dazhuang stayed and stayed at Yunjing's house for one night and left together early tomorrow morning.
When discussing the departure process with their parents, Yunjing and the others carried Yundong on their backs to prevent the guy from losing his temper.
Children are really annoying sometimes. After all, no one is like Yun Jing, who is ‘very sensible’ from birth...
This afternoon, Jiang Susu and the others did not go to work in the fields, but were busy preparing for the gift of dry food and other things on the long journey. Although Yunjing said that he had paid for the expenses on the journey, Jiang Susu and the others had lived in poverty for half their lives.
It's worth saving a little bit.
The ceremony is second, and the main thing to prepare is dry food. The dry food is not only food for people, but also fodder and water for horses. This is the main thing.
In addition to the two horses pulling the cart, their party also had four horses for the guards. The consumption of fodder was not a small amount. To reach Jiang Susu's hometown, Xiaolin Village, they would need to replenish it many times on the way.
In this era, traveling far away is really a troublesome thing.
Yunjing arranged for Song Yan and others to prepare fodder and other things in advance, so Yunjing and his family didn't have to worry.
The scene of Liu Dazhuang and the others going to Yunjing's house was seen by Yun Suanmiao and her master who were wandering in the village. Her master couldn't help but curiously asked: "Qinghe, that family seems to be an unusual farmer. There are actually two people with extraordinary skills there."
I went to his house and his attitude was extremely polite. Do you know which house it is?"
Qinghe, Yun Qinghe, is the new name of the garlic sprout. Her master said that the original name was too unsophisticated, so after asking for advice, he changed her name.
After all, they are in the world of martial arts. When introducing themselves, every girl said, "My name is Suan Miao." Tsk, the momentum was weakened by more than three points...
The villagers still call her Suan Miao. She does not emphasize her new name. Instead, she feels that her original name is more friendly. Now she is fourteen years old and is already a big girl. At her age, if she is still an ordinary farmer, she would
It stands to reason that she can get married. After all, her current status is different from that of before. Getting married is not a very urgent matter for the children of Jianghu. Of course, if she meets a good family that she likes and agrees with, that is another matter.
Yun Suan Miao has an average appearance, not ugly, but after practicing martial arts for so many years, she still has a good figure. She looked in the direction of Yun Jing's house and explained: "Master, that is my younger brother Yun Jing's house. A few generations away, his grandfather
He is the village chief, and younger brother Yunjing is a scholar and got the honors exam last year."
"That's it." Suan Miao's master raised his eyebrows and nodded, thinking that it's no wonder that someone with strong martial arts training went to his house, and his attitude was so polite. He was a scholar with a good reputation, so it's not surprising.
After all, whether they admit it or not, those who run around in the world are a head shorter than scholars.
Then, her master thought for a while and said: "Since we are cousins from your village, then find a time to bring some gifts to visit and build a good relationship."
"Why, Master?" Suan Miao asked, not quite understanding.
Her master patiently explained: "We who are in the world of martial arts often do not rely on our abilities. In the final analysis, the martial arts is more about human nature and sophistication. Since your cousin from the same village is a scholar and has a good reputation, he may become an official in the future.
, move around more, you will have a good relationship, and you will be able to speak to the government if necessary in the future. If you don't understand these things now, you will understand them in the future. Listen to me as a teacher, that's right."
"That's it, then I will listen to Master." Suan Miao nodded as if she understood.
In fact, in addition to the reasons she mentioned, her master wanted to visit and also wanted to make friends with Liu Dazhuang and the others. She said that Liu Dazhuang and the others were not weak in skills and had actually brought them to the same level.
Liu Dazhuang and the others, with their mid-acquired cultivation, are already considered good players in the world. Even in their Fengdao Sect, such cultivation is the mainstay, and they can be counted on both hands.
If you are in the world, you can make many friends, many friends and many paths, and you will never go wrong. You never know when you will be able to use the relationships that usually seem useless. When necessary, even if you are just a nod, you can still solve it.
Big problem.
In the world of martial arts, how many times can a person fight and kill in his life? Many times his life is gone after just one fight. More importantly, it is more important to pay attention to human relations and have more connections, so that you can live better.
In fact, neither Yun Suanmiao nor their master knew that when they returned to the village, they had unknowingly walked through the gates of hell.
The two innate guards of the Princess Mansion have not left yet. They have been hiding in the dark and silently protecting Xiaoxi Village. Suddenly, they noticed the arrival of several martial arts practitioners. They were still unfamiliar and thought that they were the ghosts of the enemy.
, they almost took action, but Yun Suanmiao and the others got close to the villagers, and the secret guards of the Princess Mansion figured out their identities, so they didn't take action, otherwise they would have been out of control!
Yunjing knew that the two innate guards of the Princess Mansion were still secretly protecting Xiaoxi Village. Although he didn't understand why they stayed for so long, Yunjing was happy to see such a situation. The safety of the village was
There is a great layer of protection.
The next day, when Yun Suanmiao and her master came to Yun Jing's house with gifts, they learned that Yun Jing and the others had left early, and the person who opened the door was Yun Dong with red eyes.
Yunjing and his parents set out at dawn. At that time, Yun Dong was still sleeping soundly. When he woke up, everyone in his family was gone. He cried, but it was useless. After all, he was still a child who had left home.
After being sad all morning, I almost recovered.
Only Yun Lin and Yundong were at home. The old and young, master and apprentice Yun Suanmiao came to visit. The real owner didn't even see him, he just sat for a while and left, which was really helpless.
However, after leaving, Yun Suanmiao and her master looked at Yunjing's house a few more times inexplicably. With her keen senses, she felt a little uncomfortable when she was at Yunjing's house before. She always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at her secretly, which made her feel uncomfortable.
She felt a little weird, but she really couldn't figure out where the source was. It was obviously only Yundong and Yunlin.
Yun Suan Miao and her master secretly thought that this family was a bit evil.
Well, in fact, the person staring at their master and apprentice is not anyone, but the big buffalo of Yunjing’s family. Ever since their master and apprentice came to the house, Dahei in the cattle pen has been watching them!
Normal people, who would pay attention to the reaction of a cow?
Over the years, Dahei has been nourished by Yunjing's spiritual energy. While his body has not aged at all, he has become more humane and smarter than a dog. If Yunsuanmiao and the others really want to do something to Yunlin Yundong
, it is estimated that Dahei is about to go crazy, and now it is going crazy, and the danger is more terrifying than the king of beasts running rampant in the mountains and forests!
Even though Dahei is just a big buffalo, it is much larger than the average buffalo. It is intimidating to look at. The cowhide is smooth and shiny, and the hair is dark and shiny. The pair of horns can easily tear the bark of old trees.
It can even break rocks, making it look like it is no longer a normal farm cow.
Dahei's change did not happen in a day or two. It took a long time to adapt. The family did not find it strange. They just thought that they were fed well...
Yunjing, Yunshan, Yunxi, Jiang Susu, and Liu Dazhuang, the five of them set out at dawn. When Suanmiao and his disciples went to his house, Yunjing and the others had already reached the end of the path out of Xiaoxi Village and stepped onto the official road.
Here, two carriages and Dingwei and several people were already waiting.
"Master, Madam, you get in the car first, and we will do the rest." Song Yan stepped forward immediately to pick up Yunjing and the others and salute them.
Although this was not the first time for Jiang Susu to be addressed as "Mrs.", it was still difficult for her to adapt. She was a little overwhelmed and shy, and didn't know how to answer. Her cheeks were slightly red and she nodded.
He said hello, then hugged Yun Xi and got into the carriage, feeling too embarrassed to show his face.
When going out, Xiao Yunxi was still very excited about going on a far journey and kept chattering. But after walking only ten or twenty miles on the trail, Yunjing and the others took turns carrying her forward, and they still couldn't bear it.
Lying in Jiang Susu's arms, she fell asleep soundly.
After putting the things away, Yunjing got on the carriage her mother was riding in and nodded along the side of the carriage: "Let's set off and try to reach Qingliang Town before dark."
Qingliang Town was their first stop on a twenty-day round trip. It was more than sixty miles away from where they got on the bus. They had to get there in one day, which was a bit tight. After all, the carriage could not
Almost flying.
It is worth mentioning that the direction they were walking was not towards Niujiao Town, so they did not need to pass through Niujiao Town, and the next stop was directly to Qingliang Town.
"Mom, you should take a rest. The road ahead is still long and bumpy, and you will be very tired." Yunjing turned around and said.
Jiang Susu looked at both sides of the truth through the curtain of the carriage, and embarked on the way home. Her mood was very uneasy. Every time she took another look at the scenery on both sides of the truth, it meant that she was one step closer to home.
She has been away from home for more than ten years, thirteen years to be precise. Her memory of home has become blurry to her, and she wishes she could grow wings and fly back.
More than ten years have been too long. She knows that there is no one at home anymore, but the home she once had has always been a concern for her. Even if she just goes back to take a look, it can be regarded as the fulfillment of her dream for so many years.
Knowing that she was going to leave today, she didn't sleep well last night. Yesterday afternoon, she almost stared at the pear tree in the yard in a daze for the entire afternoon. That pear tree had witnessed her years away from home.
Although Jiang Susu didn't sleep well all night, she didn't feel tired. This was thanks to Yunjing secretly using spiritual energy to relieve her fatigue.
"Xiao Jing, mom is not tired, you don't have to worry about me. I'm thinking about the way home, but no matter how I think about it, I can't remember how I got here in the first place. I was so confused that I walked so far.
I met your father. If I hadn't met your father, I really don't dare to think about what would have happened to me. Maybe I would have starved to death, maybe..." Jiang Susu looked at both sides of the road and shook her head as she tried to recall.
"Over the years, our family's life has become more and more prosperous, and our children have grown up one by one. Think of something happy, and the past has passed." Yunshan comforted him from the side. He was clumsy and couldn't say anything.
The words are too heart-warming, but every sentence is sincere and simple.
Jiang Susu smiled reluctantly and said: "Now that my family is full of children, I am already living a very happy life. But sometimes, when I think of my family members who died tragically, I feel a little uncomfortable. But after so many years, I am no longer very sad.
,real"
Yunshan held his hand and didn't know how to comfort her. Maybe giving her a shoulder to lean on at this time would be worth a thousand words...
The atmosphere was a bit depressing. Yunjing said something nice to lighten the atmosphere and said: "Mom, do you still remember the aunt I told you about? I've asked about it. She is active in Fengyang County, Xiaolin Village.
Under the rule of Fengyang County, we might even meet my aunt this time we go."
"Really? That's great. I haven't seen my relatives in more than ten years." Jiang Susu said with some excitement. Although the other person was just a cousin from the same village, she was still considered her mother's family. In this world, she, Jiang Susu,
Not alone.
Seeing that her mother's mood had eased, Yunjing also became happy.
After all, traveling is a hard job, especially as the road is uneven and extremely bumpy. After less than ten miles, not to mention Jiang Susu, even Yunshan was a little overwhelmed, so they went to rest in the carriage.
Yunshan has been working hard all year round, so he still has some physical fitness. He can carry heavy objects to the town for dozens of miles, but he just can't stand the bumps of the carriage. After all, he has never traveled a long distance in a carriage, and he is not used to it. If it weren't for his limited leg strength,
After all, he would even rather walk.
The road was not easy to walk, and sometimes the wheels of the carriage fell into pits and had to be pushed. Most people really couldn't stand this fatigue.
On the contrary, Yun Xi was very lively after waking up and chattering non-stop, adding a lot of joy to the boring journey.
Liu Dazhuang and his four other guards from Li Qiu's family were riding horses and surrounded two carriages, always alert to the surroundings.
In these days and months, traveling long distances is not easy. In addition to being wary of bandits and road bullies, you also have to guard against wild beasts. You must never let down your guard at all times.
They had only walked more than twenty miles since they set out on the official road. At noon, they had to stop midway. A large group of people gathered in front of them. The road was smooth, but no one was seen walking forward.
As he gradually approached the crowd in front, Liu Dazhuang said: "Master, please slow down, I'll go over and find out what's going on."
"Yeah," Yun Jing nodded, but his brows furrowed slightly.
Liu Dazhuang went over to inquire about the situation, but Yunjing's telepathy went over to understand the situation first.
After getting to know him a little bit, Yunjing couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It's really not safe to go out these days. It can be said that going out is the world!
Nothing major happened in the front. Yunjing learned from the people gathered together that about ten miles ahead, a group of road bandits with an unknown number appeared recently. They often robbed travelers and even killed people.
This makes people who walk this road feel scared and dare not go alone. They would rather stay here and wait for more people to travel together.
This road is the only way to connect Niujiao Town and Qingliang Town. If you want to take a detour, you can only take this road.
Yunjing was quite speechless as he encountered something like this before he even thought about going out...
