MTL - Martial Arts Master Travelled to Ancient Time and Farms-Chapter 36 Infinite scenery in the dangerous peak
Chapter 36 Infinite scenery on the dangerous peak
The distance of ten miles, with a carriage, actually passed in a flash.
After about a quarter of an hour, the turning point of the road ahead appeared in front of everyone.
At this time, Cheng Erni still maintained a high degree of excitement.
Although she was also beaten to the point of pain, she was still able to weave a bamboo hat with thin wicker, and sweetly said to Mu Sanniang: "Aniang, please tell me the tricks of driving a car well, when I learn it. I can come for you, so you can rest too."
Cheng Erni's temperament is slightly out of line, but her work is not ambiguous at all.
Her weaving skills are particularly good. When she was in her hometown, she would often weave some bamboo baskets, bamboo flats, bamboo baskets, etc., and sell them at the market to subsidize the household.
Cheng Dani is not idle. Her weaving skills are not as good as Cheng Erni's. When sitting in the carriage, she drives a small shallow basket on her lap, and from time to time she turns over to dry the honeysuckle that was not completely dried yesterday.
At the same time, she was holding needles and linen in her hands, which was sewing a satchel after Cheng Ling's canvas bag. Cheng Ling's carry-on bag opened Cheng Dani's eyes. She said, "This thing is convenient and much better than a shackle."
褡裢 is a kind of carry-on bag commonly used by the ancients. A wide cloth belt hangs down in the middle, which can be directly put on the shoulders, and a square cloth bag is connected from the two ends to the waist.
To be honest, the capacity of the sash is not small, but because the shoulder **** the shoulder is not sealed, once a person runs, the sash is easy to fall off, and Cheng Dani feels very unsafe.
The messenger bag is much more convenient, it can be slung in front of the body, and the back does not delay the carrying of the basket. When running, the shoulder straps can still be firmly attached to the person, which can give Cheng Dani, who is full of sense of urgency, a full sense of security.
She said, "I'm going to make three more satchels. We'll all carry this bag and take some important things with us."
What is ?
For example, wild vegetable **** and dried meat. And... money.
When was in the cave, Cheng Ling quietly gave money to his two sisters and Mu Sanniang.
gave the two sisters 30 pennies each and Mu Sanniang 10 taels of silver. At that time, Mu Sanniang was so frightened that she clenched her money tightly and stared at Cheng Ling.
Cheng Ling gestured: "Shh..." Then he turned his head and gestured towards Lu County with his eyes.
Mu Sanniang hurriedly put away the silver, her lips wriggled a few times, and Cheng Ling "tacitly understood" the origin of the silver.
Cheng Ling also had twenty taels of silver, ten taels of gold beads, and some scattered copper coins.
She can keep the big money in her portable space to be more secure. In addition, she has worked and lived independently for many years in her previous life, and she is also used to taking control of her own finances.
On the other side of the carriage, several people were also not idle.
Hong Guangyi was driving the car, and Hong Xiaolang sat next to him, also learning Cheng Erni to weave things out of wicker.
He can weave the back basket, but it is not very good, it is crooked, and some branches are not tied tightly. But for a kid who only learned the craft of knitting yesterday, it's not bad.
Shi Hong sat there weaving rattan shoes, and Yunniang followed him very obediently.
After wandering in the mountains for so long, their shoes have long been tossed out, and they have to be replaced with other shoes, otherwise it will be difficult to walk.
Cheng Erni had already made several pairs of straw sandals in her bag, so she didn't need to worry about this for a while.
Hong Guangyi drove the car to the front, and saw a fork in the north direction, but it was along a mountain peak, rising obliquely upward.
The west side of the road is clearly a peak, while the east side is empty, without guardrails or shelter, winding upwards, like a sharp knife belt, forcibly cut on this rocky mountain.
Hong Guangyi exclaimed: "Xuanshan Road!"
This is the shortcut that can be inserted horizontally to Yun'an County.
If you take this road, you can indeed reach Yun'an County at the fastest speed, and then go to Chixia City through Yun'an County.
But this road is undoubtedly very thrilling. If you slide down the hillside if you are not careful, it will really be a life-and-death experience.
On the sea king's marching route map, it is also clearly marked that this is a route that has been studied and has been reluctantly abandoned.
Cheng Erni, who was excited all the way, was also a little frightened at this time, and blurted out a sentence: "Brother Ling, are we going this way? Isn't this really doing business with the King of Hell?"
Mu Sanniang immediately scolded her, "Bah, bah, bah, shut up if you can't speak!"
Cheng Ling got off the carriage, stood under this mountain road, raised his head, carefully observed for a moment, and said, "Actually, it is not that dangerous. It looks terrible now, just because the mountain is high, and we are looking from the bottom up."
After a pause, he added: "Aniang, eldest sister and second sister, brother Shi, brother Hong, if we want to get to Chixia City before King Linhai, this is the most likely way to achieve our goal. If you don't want to, we will You can also go the other way, but…”
"Let's go!" Mu Sanniang was decisive, "Just go this way! Big things... we can't do big things, but I don't want to escape."
Speaking of this, her voice sank slightly: "This King Linhai, he slaughtered the city. Let's go faster and report a letter, if Lord Jun can block him, Brother Ling, then we can't be considered a waste. already."
Hong Guangyi hurriedly said: "Go! Isn't it a mountain road? We have all experienced the massacre, so are we afraid of this?"
Now that you have decided to go, you need to feed the horses again before going up the mountain.
The two horses that Cheng Ling grabbed should be regarded as the best war horses in Kang Ping. One was jujube red and the other was dark brown.
It's a pity that Cheng Ling doesn't have good grass to feed them, so he can only lead them to eat some grass by the roadside and feed them some water.
For water, everyone brought three bamboo tubes with them, and there were two buckets of water on the carriage. These two buckets of water were the drinking water for the horses.
After feeding the horses, Cheng Ling patted the necks of the two horses and suddenly hugged them, while feeding a milk candy.
Both horses like to eat candy, and the big tongue rolls over the small milk slices, the brown horse suddenly neighs happily, and the jujube horse also raises its hoofs for joy.
Cheng Ling laughed, patted the two guys, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, let's go!"
The crowd did not get on the carriage again, but only let the two children sit in the carriage, and the two horses pulled the children, and then pulled their salute and food.
The mountain road is indeed as Cheng Ling said. When you look up, it looks narrow and dangerous, but when you actually walk up, it can actually be four or five feet wide.
Walking against the mountain wall, if you don’t run around, you won’t fall off.
Fortunately, their carriages were made small, with a total width of about four feet. In this way, the horses could pull the carriage and go up the mountain road.
In some extremely steep places, everyone will work together to help the horse push the cart at the back, Hong Guangyi and Mu Sanniang are responsible for holding the reins for the horse, and Cheng Ling will help randomly.
It was about noon when they walked up the mountain, and there was a downhill ahead.
Hong Xiaolang who was sitting on the carriage suddenly turned his head and exclaimed, "It's raining!"
It is raining, but it is not raining at the location where they are now, but it is raining on the south side of the mountain where they walked before.
Everyone couldn't help but turn their heads together, only to see a rain in the south. The bean-sized raindrops crackled down, but they stood outside the rain curtain, as if watching another world.
