☆ 12. Chapter 11 is about being unreasonable
Chapter 11 talks about the unreasonable
mountain roads from Longzhou County to Dacha Village. For the villagers of Dacha Village, the road is now very good, and even donkey carts can go there. Back then, it took a whole day just to go down the mountain.
But for people who have never been to this 800-mile mountain, this mountain road is simply life-threatening. The road is of varying widths and is bumpy. From time to time, small stones roll down from above. It sticks to the cliff, and the river rolls eastward below... Wen Cheng walked for two hours and was almost blown to the ground by a gust of mountain wind. Fortunately, a tree that stretched out diagonally blocked him and he didn't fall down. Wen Cheng's
book boy Xiaofu is also fifteen or sixteen years old, younger than Wen Cheng, but he is used to working and his physical fitness is much better than Wen Cheng. He saw Wen Cheng pounce on the tree trunk, pretending to help: "Second... Huh... Second, Second Young Master..."
Wen Cheng raised his head slightly and saw that Xiaofu's usually fair face was flushed red, with two black streaks, his hair was stained with sweat and stuck to the ground, and he sniffed while speaking. As a senior face control, Wen Cheng couldn't help but turn his face away in disdain, waved his hand, and indicated that he was fine: "Rest for a while."
Xiaofu sat down on the ground after hearing this, breathing heavily, with a dark look in his eyes. He sneered in his heart when he thought of the excuse for the second young master to go out, "Go into the mountains to find elixirs for dad", and take him with a little book boy? The ferocity of this 800-li mountain, let alone in Longzhou County, is known to everyone in the entire Qi State?
But a bunch of people in the county mansion followed and praised the second young master for being filial. As the only servant who could go out with the second young master, Xiaofu was also envied. But such days...
When the master and servant arrived at Dacha Village, it was already dark, and even the villagers under the big tea tree disappeared. The villagers were reluctant to light lamp oil. In the weak light, even the voices of people in the whole village were almost inaudible. A group of bats flew silently, and suddenly there was a strange laugh. A huge black shadow flashed through the air without any sound... The
hot sweat on Xiaofu's forehead instantly turned into cold sweat, and he trembled in his voice: "Ghost... Second, Second Young Master, there is a ghost!"
Wen Cheng had some knowledge after all, and he didn't want to lose face in front of the servants, so he immediately scolded: "What ghost! It's a night owl, what's the fuss?"
Xiaofu tightened his fingers holding the package, and was not comforted at all. Night owl, night owl, that is a mourning bird. If the night owl laughs, someone will definitely die. Xiaofu looked at the sun that was sliding down the mountain quickly, and boldly suggested: "Second Master, I'll go find out where my husband's home is first."
Wen Cheng waved his hand: "It's getting dark, let's go together." At this time, Wen Cheng regretted it very much. He thought riding a donkey was not good-looking, so he walked up the mountain.
Wen Cheng had a horse. It was a tall horse, and even in the city, it was the envy of many young masters. Whether it was Longzhou County, the county seat, or Anjiang Prefecture, the capital, they were all in the mountains. The local horses were short-legged horses, mostly used for farming and carrying things. This kind of grassland pedigree horse is very rare.
But this kind of horse is not suitable for riding in the mountains, and Wen Cheng disliked the short-legged horse because of its poor image.
Wen Cheng regretted it in his heart, and thought about how to treat his good brother when he saw him later. Thinking of the joyful things, it seemed that even his legs and feet became lighter.
