I was a hunter in ancient times

Chapter 70 Entering the County

 It takes nearly a day's drive from Taoyuan Village to Anyang Town, not to mention the farther county town.

Think about it too, if the distance from the town to the county is not too far, the county will not set up offices in various towns.

Fortunately, after leaving Anyang Town, there is an official road leading to the county seat. Although it is only made of rammed earth, it is solid and flat. It is very comfortable to drive on, and even the speed is much faster.

Even when driving in winter, the car is bare and there is no windshield. In addition, the sky gets darker as we go, and the cold air drops a little bit, falling on the body. No matter how thick the clothes are, we don't feel warm.

Zhou Du stretched out his hand to touch the back of Shen Xi's hand, his eyebrows frowned, it was bitingly cold.

Shen Xi seemed to have sensed something, turned his head and smiled at him: "Zhou Du, your hands are so warm."

"Yes." Zhou Du held his hand, hoping to pass on the warmth of his body to him, However, it's really too cold, and Shen Xi has to drive a car, this temperature is far from alleviating the cold on his body.

Zhou Du touched his face with his hand again, it was as icy and cold, and asked him: "Aren't you cold?

" In winter, when I get up early to cook, even cold well water can be used, and I don't feel so cold after a long time.

"Later..."

After wrapping up the clothes on his body, Shen Xi didn't know what to think of, and he had to explain a few words to Zhou Du, who knew that before he finished speaking, he was picked up by someone in the air.

In the next moment, his whole body fell firmly into a warm embrace. "You teach me." Zhou Du adjusted the sitting posture of Shen Xi in his arms, leaning his back on his chest, wrapping his hands around him, shielding him from the cold surrounding, "Let's drive together."

Shen Xi raised his head in Zhou Du's arms, stared at his flawless jaw, shrunk his heart slightly, and asked, "How can I drive like this?"



Shen Xi's ears couldn't stop burning again, no matter how many times he experienced it, he seemed unable to resist the gentleness revealed inadvertently.

And it was the gentleness that was only shown in front of him.

"That's it." Shen Xi took Zhou Du's arm, raised his whip, and taught, "You see that it is misbehaving and going astray, just hit it." The

mule is very docile, more obedient than a horse, and Zhou Du was beaten. After Shen Xi took the operation over, he quickly learned it. He lowered his head and said to Shen Xi in his arms: "You are tired, just sleep in my arms."

"Not tired." Shen Xi nestled in Zhou Du's arms , His whole heart was filled to the brim, he raised his head and kept staring at Zhoudu. In the dim environment, his eyes were as bright as the night sky filled with the whole galaxy, very beautiful. Seeing

that he didn't sleep, Zhou Du didn't force him. He remembered what Shen Xi hadn't finished saying just now, and asked, "What did you want to say just now?"

Hong said: "I want to say, if you feel cold later, I will bring a wolf fur in the car, you can take it out and wrap it up."

Who knew that before he finished speaking, Zhou Du hugged him into his arms Yes, let him go out now, he doesn't want to go out either.

"Wolf skin?" Zhou Du was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that the last time he came back from hunting wolves, he threw all the wolf skins at Shen's house, and he didn't pay attention to it later, and then he completely forgot about it. Unexpectedly, Shen Xi still remembered it.

"That's right," Shen Xi explained, "Didn't you want me to tan you? I've finished everything, and I'm thinking of transporting it to the county town to sell, and the price will be higher than the price in the town." Shen Xi was surprised: "Isn't that what you meant by leaving the wolf skin at my house?" Seeing that Zhou Du didn't even know how to peel the skin, he automatically considered it for him. "No," Zhou Du raised his whip to drive away the mules that strayed from the route, pursed his lips and said, "You peeled the skin."

Zhou Du couldn't help but wondered : "When did I say something to make you tan?"







Zhou Du said without beginning or end, but Shen Xi quickly understood what he meant: "You mean, I peeled the skin, so it all belongs to me?"

Zhou Du nodded, "Yeah."

"But you beat this wolf." Shen Xi propped himself up from Zhou Du's arms, " I just peeled the skin for you, how can I collect these skins."

Zhou Du looked at him, and said seriously: "It's hard work to peel the skin."

Zhou Du's glance made Shen Xi's heart beat like a drum again, and he pressed the sticker with his cold palm. With feverish earlobes, he couldn't help asking: "Then those rabbit skins before were also given to me?"

Zhou Du wondered again: "Rabbit skins?"

"It's the rabbits you beat before autumn, "Shen Xi said while explaining, "I saw that you didn't ask questions, so I tanned them all on my own initiative, thinking that selling them in the town in winter will be more expensive than selling them in summer. This is not going to the county town. , I'll take it with the wolf fur to see if I can sell it for a good price."

Zhou Du was taken aback, he had never noticed the things Shen Xi said, and since he didn't do it, he wouldn't want it either. , nodded and said: "Well, I will give you all."

"Really?" Shen Xi seemed not to believe it, and then said, "These leathers are really valuable, maybe even higher than the price of selling meat, are you sure you want to give them away?" Give it to me."

Zhou Du didn't hesitate: "I'm sure."

Shen Xi stared at Zhou Du's heart that had just calmed down, and it seemed to be beating again.

Seeing that he was silent, Zhou Du whispered again: "I am also you '."

It means: even I am yours, and my things should also be yours.

Bang

Shenxi heard the sound of the little magpie bursting because of being too happy, his ears became temporarily blind, and Zhou Du's words were repeated in his mind.

Zhou Du didn't know that he said it, and it made Shen Xi laugh so hard that he looked at his smile and remained silent.

Shen Xi smiled for a while, as if he couldn't contain his excitement, and said to Zhou Du: "Zhou Du, I'm so happy now."

Zhou Du's eyes moved away from his grinning face: " I can see it."

Shen Xi stretched out her hand to stick to his face, forcibly moved his gaze away, then moved it back, and said bluntly: "I'm so happy that I want to sleep with you again."

Zhou Du: "..."

Shen Xi immediately His eyes turned around again, he had an idea, but there was no place to implement it, and his eyes couldn't help but darken: "But it doesn't seem to work now."

Zhou Du leaned over and kissed his face as a comfort: "Good boy "

Shen Xi blinked: "What should I do if I don't want to be good?"

Zhou Du said without talking nonsense: "Then bear with it."

Shen Xi: "..."

Shen Xi asked unwillingly: "What should I do if I can't help it. "

Zhou Du glanced at the dark surroundings, and said bluntly: "It can be solved in the car."

Shen Xi glanced at the big black man on the car, and remembered the thrilling thing that day, and the sky was getting darker and darker, and his heart was getting more and more uneasy, so he hurriedly turned his head like a rattle: "No, no, no, I'll be fine by myself in a while."

Zhou Du pinched his nose and coaxed him: "Be good."

Shen Xi rubbed his nose on his face and said, "When will I be bad?"

Zhou Du: "..."

From Anyang It takes a total of five days to drive from the town to the county seat. This is due to the fact that they speeded up the journey and shortened the time by traveling in groups of two, day and night. If they stop and go, it may take half a month to reach the county seat.

Fortunately, it's a cold winter, and the natural air-conditioning is the best preservative to keep the bear meat from spoiling for five days. If it's summer, the bear meat won't be rancid. The official

road is not as deserted as the country road. From time to time, you can see horse carts, ox carts and mule carts passing by. People come and go.

Shen Xi was afraid that the big black man on the car would cause criticism, so he took out the black cloth that he got up early to cover it, and put his own baggage on it, so that people could not see what was being pulled on the car.

Arrived at the county seat smoothly.

Baoshan County is located in a small area of ​​Bashu area. It looks small but it is many times more prosperous than Anyang Town.

Before Zhou Du and his party approached the county town from a distance, they could vaguely see the fence that surrounded the entire county town, and they could even hear the bustling cries and shouts coming from the fence.

There are also many cows, horses and mules near the wall, and they are neatly stacked outside the city wall one by one, which is really spectacular.

One row goes out of the city wall, and the other row goes into the city wall. No matter whether you enter or exit, you have to check routinely, and you have to pay the city entrance fee when you enter the city.

When he was about to enter the city, Shen Mu crawled out of the comfortably laid quilt, straightened his clothes, packed up the quilt, and waited for Zhou Du and Shen Xi, who were slowly following, to enter the city together.

As soon as Zhou Du and Shen Xi leaned up, they lined up in the queue for entering the city with Shen Mu's ox cart.

The so-called routine inspections are not very strict. The officials who guard the city gates just take a glance or two at random. After all, Baoshan County is only a small county in Sichuan, and it is unlikely that any unstable people will get mixed in. As long as you behave obediently No one will take care of them if they pay the gate fee.

Zhou Du drove the mule and was behind Shen Mu's ox cart, looked up at the line of entering the city that couldn't see the head, and asked Shen Xi: "How much is the entrance fee?"

"One person three copper coins, Animals like mules are worth five coppers." Shen Xi hasn't been to the county for a long time, and he only vaguely remembers the price, so he is not sure, "But this is the previous price, and I don't know if the price has increased."

Shen Xi looked at The people next to him who had just come out of the city gate suggested, "Why don't I ask, just open my mouth."

"No need," Zhou Du looked at the hurrying people around, and hurried to ask The human Shenxi pointed back at the bow and arrow on the mule cart and asked, "You have the time to ask about the entrance fee, why don't you help me think about how to deal with this bow and arrow.

" Good or bad, but those people in the city who have seen the world may not be sure. Zhou Du didn't want to make a good bow and arrow by himself and make others cheaper.

Shen Xi is also aware of the extraordinary nature of Zhoudu's bows and arrows. Although the city gate guards may not have this knowledge, there is a good saying, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

In addition, they are just ordinary people now, people don't fight with officials, so it's better to be careful in everything.

After thinking about it, Shen Xi took out Zhou Du's bow and arrow, and wanted to hide it in the quilt of Shen Mu's ox cart.

As soon as his hand touched the bow and arrow, there was a commotion at the gate of the city.

A horse that didn't know what to do and got out of control rushed over from the front, and there was a person sitting on the horse's back. Seeing that the horse was out of control, he was very anxious, and shouted to the people on both sides: "Get out of the way, out of the way, out of the way!" Drive."

The people in front dispersed in a panic, Zhou Du and the others were at the back, and the people in front squeezed their mule cart into the middle, and at this time they pulled it again. It was too late for the mule to hide aside.

Zhou Du's eyebrows were fixed, and he snatched the bow and arrow from Shen Xi's hand without any hesitation, and took the arrow and mounted the arrow in one go.

Before everyone could react, Zhou Du fired four arrows at once, like four mighty rainbows, piercing the sky, and their roots were clearly and powerfully pierced into the road where the crazy horse was about to charge.

It was as if four wooden stakes suddenly rose from the ground to startle the crazy horse, which only knew to rush forward blindly. The two horses hoofs pouted towards the sky, making a tearing sound like a horse whistling.

The man on the horse took advantage of the gap when the horse stopped, reined in the horse's reins in time, and pulled hard, causing the horse that was rushing towards the crowd to turn around, and then rushed a few steps to make the horse calm down.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, Shen Mu even ran over early to hug Shen Xi, and used his back to block the horse that was about to charge.

Shen Xi's eyes have been watching Zhou Du nervously. Seeing that Zhou Du stopped the rushing crazy horse in time, his feet went limp, and he collapsed into Shen Mu's arms, he said with a sigh of relief: "Little uncle, it's all right."

Shen Xi Mu supported Shen Xi, saw the subdued crazy horse in the distance, and couldn't help but feel relieved: "Be careful too, why are people squeezed into the middle of the road?"

Shen Xi shook his head, he was thinking about how to help Zhou Du Hidden bow and arrow, did not find any danger at all, shook his head: "I don't know."

Zhou Du just paid attention to his surroundings the whole time, so he naturally knew what was going on For the same thing, his sharp eyebrows and eyes coldly glanced at the family behind their mule cart in the ox cart with eight or nine people.

The family saw that Zhou Du was born tall and burly, and he shot the astonishing four arrows at an extremely fast speed just now, Zhou Du gave them a cold look, and everyone was like a quail. He lowered his head, afraid that Zhou Du would trouble them.

As soon as things calmed down here, three horse riders came out from the city. They were all tall and burly, with an imposing manner, and they were not ordinary people at first glance.

They came to Zhou Du on horseback, quickly got up from their horses, clasped their fists at Zhou Du and said, "Thank you brother for saving me just now.

" Seeing that the clothes on them were exactly the same as those on the crazy horse just now, they knew that they were in the same group.

He didn't have a good temper at the moment, and said coldly: "If you can't manage the horse's legs, you should take care of your own legs first. If you can't manage your own legs well, you might as well cut them off."

The three people in front of them were stunned for a while. It took a long time to realize that Zhou Du was beating around the bush and scolding them not to ride horses if they don't know how to ride horses. Suddenly, the old blushed, each scratched their heads, and said embarrassedly: "Brother misunderstood, this horse is not surprised by my brothers, It was because a child in the city ran up to our horse suddenly, and my brother was afraid of bumping into the child, so he strangled the wrong horse in a moment of panic, which made the horse run away in fright."

Zhou Du didn't bother to listen to their explanation, they saved a child , but almost bumped into him and Shen Xi, the child's life is life, so is his and Shen Xi's life not life?

Walking around them, he went to pick up the arrows that he had shot down and stuck on the ground.

The three men also felt that they were in the wrong, and when they saw Zhou Du ignoring them, they looked embarrassing, and when they saw Zhou Du went to pick up the arrows, they went up the mountain to compliment them: "Brother is good at arrows, where did you learn from?"

Just now Zhou Du's four arrows fired in one go, but they all saw them. All four of them are leaders in the army. Others can't see Zhou Du's archery skills, but they can see clearly. Chu.

His lower body is as steady as a bell, his arms are strong and powerful, four arrows can draw the full length of the bow, his strength can be described as impressive, and his key reactions are also extremely sensitive. Not only did he not panic at such a critical moment just now, but he was also calm and calm, shooting arrows in a calm manner to stop the startled horse , such a strength can not be found in their army, they are amazed, eager to know who can teach such an outstanding archer.

Zhou Du put away the arrow, put it back into his quiver, and said coldly: "There is no teacher's inheritance."

The leader of the four laughed and said: "That is a family tradition."

Zhou Du looked at it coldly. The guard who ran over from the gate of the city still said in a cold voice: "There is no family tradition."

His archery was figured out by himself day after day in despair in the dark room that could not see a ray of light. People taught him.

The guards guarding the city gate came forward in full armor, and the leader immediately shouted: "What are you guys doing? Seriously disrupting the order at the city gate, do you know?"

After shouting, he found that Zhou Du was still wearing a bow and arrow blatantly, Pointing at Zhou Du: "You..."

Seeing him pointing at himself, Zhou Du frowned, but before he could speak, he saw the burly man next to him taking out a token from his waist and waving it in front of the guards .

Just now the arrogance was still high, a pair of guards who were about to interrogate them suddenly died down, and they didn't even dare to fart. They lowered their heads, looked at the men beside Zhou Du with compliments, and said flatteringly: "I don't know how many officials I 'm here to do business, I'm bothering you, I'm bothering you."

This quick change of face amazed the people around, and they were very curious about the identities of these people, and they were able to make the guards nod and bow down to such an extent.

Zhou Du didn't feel much about it, he put away the arrows and was about to put them on the mule cart, but when Shen Mu saw that the token in the man's hand was quite familiar, he couldn't help but take another look, and after reading it, he couldn't help it. I didn't remember where I saw it before, so I ignored it.

After the guards stopped asking questions, the man put away the badge. He saw that Zhou Du and the others were packed full of ox carts and mules. It was not difficult to see that they were going to enter the city, so he said to the leading guard: "You let them enter the city first, and I will pay the fee for entering the city. After we come back from our work, we will tie you up." The

guards waved their hands again and again: "Don't dare, the military men have made great contributions to the expansion of Daqing's territory. It's just a few entry fees, how dare I take money from the military master." After finishing

speaking, the guards said to Zhou Du and the others with a good attitude: "You go to the city."

Someone opened the way for them, and Zhou Du was also happy. Let Shen Xi and the others pack up and go to the city quickly.

Just when Zhou Du and the others were about to leave, the man put his hand on Zhou Du's ox cart, and said again: "Brother, it was my brother who disturbed you by mistake just now, and now that I have something with me, I can't help but stay here." Stay for a long time, when we come back from our work, I will definitely serve you a shocking table, brother, and give you a proper apology." After such a delay, the time is already getting late, and everyone is exhausted from running all the way, Shen Mu took the lead to suggest: "Don't bother today, find a place to rest for a night, and discuss the rest of the matter tomorrow ."

Zhou Du didn't take this man's words to heart either. After all, after separating from here, it is not easy for two groups of people who have nothing to do with each other to meet again, but it seems that they can save him from being arrested. Regarding the matter of passing through the city gate, Zhou Du can let go of what happened just now.

So he nodded, counting it as a greeting, and led Shen Xi and the others to jump into the city. 

Zhou Du glanced at Shen Xi next to him, and saw that he had been in a good mood since the startled horse just now, and he kept his head down and didn't speak, thinking that he was frightened, and agreed: "Okay. " 

It's different when you come up, there are row upon row of shops on both sides of the street, and the street is also crowded with people. Luo Fu and Li Yu came to the county for the first time, so they couldn't help being dazzled. Relatively speaking, Zhoudu, Shenmu and Shenxi, who had seen the world, were much calmer. 

 Shen Mu led them around the street, considering the black bears on the Zhoudu mule cart, without thinking about excluding those inferior inns, he led them straight to a big inn in the town. The big inn is worthy of being a big inn, even the store door is very luxuriously repaired, which makes people feel overwhelmed at first glance.

 Luo Fu is holding the bullock outside the store door, which looks extremely cramped. He feels that a cleaning servant inside is at the moment are nobler than him. 

 Shen Mu walked in, and said without nonsense to the shopkeeper at the counter at the door: "I want three upper rooms." After the shopkeeper broadcast the abacus and wrote down Shen Mu's name, he handed them three room cards and said, "Three hundred rooms." One day, nine hundred cash for the benefit, please inform me before noon tomorrow for the continuation of the room." Shen Mu took the room card, paid the money readily, and kept one room card for himself, and gave the remaining two cards to him. 

Zhou Du gave one to Luo Fu, and Luo Fu was too frightened to take it: "It's too frustrating for me to stay for one night for three hundred yuan. It's okay, why waste this money."


Shen Mu smiled and explained to him: "It not only includes rent, but also parking money, washing money and food money, otherwise it's worth 300 Wen. A cheaper house is also fine, but, like parking You have to find a place to eat, a place to wash, and you have to find it by yourself. Not to mention the time-consuming and labor-intensive cost, it may not be less than here, so you can live with peace of mind. No money wasted. This is saving us Money."

After hearing this, Luo Fu accepted the house card with peace of mind.

Sure enough, not long after, a guy in the store took their ox cart and mule cart to the back to feed and wash, and also kept the goods on the cart for them. If they were lost, they would lose money.

After everything is settled, everyone only needs to take their bags and enter the room to rest.

Li Yu looked at Shen Mu and then at Zhou Du with his burden in his arms, but he didn't see any arrangements of his own, so he asked blankly, "Master, where should I sleep?"

Shen Mu stopped, looked at him and said with a smile, "Of course you are. He slept with me."

Li Yu felt relieved, looked at Shen Xi who had been silent at the side, and asked puzzledly: "Where is Xiaoxi sleeping?"

Before Shen Mu could speak, Zhou Du took the initiative to say: " Shen Xi, sleep with me."

Li Yu: "????????"

The author has something to say: love each other, love family,

love family Li Yu: @爱周渡沉河@爱沉溪周渡, what are you doing ? Condition? ?
