MTL - Who Told Him To Cultivate Immortality!-Chapter 41 Set off
Chapter 41 Departure
Lu Yang came to the stall selling sesame seed cakes again.
The seller of sesame seed cakes is a senior sister. The dough is raised, rested, kneaded, and dropped until it is formed. I don’t know how long it has been practiced.
The senior sister pulled the dough into small **** one after another, and kneaded the dough into a cake shape with all her strength.
The movement coincides with a certain reason. It seems that this is not just a simple kneading of dough, but also a way of exercising body coordination.
Senior sister placed the dough cakes on the forging table, and hit the sledgehammer violently, making a bang bang bang bang bang, sparks splashed everywhere, and burned small holes on the ground.
The biscuit is quenched, the cold water is boiled instantly, bubbling and bubbling, and soon a biscuit is ready.
Lu Yang felt that it was an eye-opener. Bailian Peak really had an idea, and the combination of delicious food and refining equipment was seamless.
"Here's a pancake."
The things in the cafeteria are really cheap. Lu Yang saw a lot of good things here, if not for the limited contribution points, he really wanted to buy them all.
…
In the early morning of the next day, Lu Yang met the two of them at the gate of Wendao Zong as agreed.
"I'll just wait for you." Meng Jingzhou waved after seeing Lu Yang. There was a carriage parked behind him, which was the same one that took them to Wendaozong, and the old horse was still the same old horse.
The only difference is that the third person has changed from the senior sister Yunzhi to the wild bone.
Mangu studied hard, and was studying while waiting for others. The loose Confucian robe encased his muscles, and he really looked like a tall Confucian scholar.
"Don't need to take the flying boat?" Lu Yang is ready to take the flying boat. Although it is convenient for him to shrink the ground to an inch, it is not as fast as the flying boat.
He temporarily gave up the study of shrinking the ground to make an inch, and specialized in shrinking the ground and making an inch.
Meng Jingzhou patted the carriage, proudly said: "My carriage is a rare treasure, it contains space formations, we feel that the carriage moves slowly while sitting in it, but in fact, it looks as fast as a flying boat to outsiders."
Thinking about it, the Meng family is far away in the imperial city. Meng Jingzhou relied on a carriage from the Meng family to Wendaozong.
The carriage used formations on the way to Wendaozong, and it was almost flying up. When it got close to Wendaozong, it closed the formation and slowed down to show respect for Wendaozong.
What Lu Yang saw before was the slowed down carriage.
The three of them got into the carriage, and the interior of the carriage was still as big as before. Only now did Lu Yang understand the value of this carriage.
"Speaking of which, where are we going? What is the mission?"
"Hey, so I didn't tell you? We're going to a place called Qinghuai County. Specifically, let Brother Mangu tell you. After all, he found the mission."
Mangu put a bookmark in the gap between the books, closed the book, and spoke slowly.
"I heard about this incident from the passengers of the flying boat when I was out on a mission. He is a leader of a merchant who knows many things that ordinary people don't know. He told me a story that was circulated among their merchants. Has some credibility."
"Between Qinghuai County and Yanjiang County, there is a large mountain with continuous ups and downs. If a merchant wants to cross this mountain, he must be led by a local hunter."
"A terrifying existence appeared in the forest, forcing the hunters to leave the forest they depend on for survival..."
…
As night fell, the wildly growing tree branches blocked the moonlight, the thunder was deafening, the heavy rain poured down, and the washed ground was so muddy that people had nowhere to go.
Seven or eight people tied ropes around their waists and connected them together to prevent people from slipping, slipping down the mountain, and accidentally losing them.
All around was the sound of heavy rain, even if someone fell and shouted, it would be difficult to hear the sound.
They wore coir raincoats, carried trekking poles, and carried baskets. They took every step carefully, for fear of stepping into a deep pit.
The icy raindrops made them unkempt. When they looked up, the dense rain curtain blocked their sight, so they could only follow the old Orion at the front.
"Be careful on your feet, the mountain road is very slippery in rainy days!"
"Don't stop when you're tired, work harder, it's almost there, stop now, but it will be hard to get on the road again!"
"I, I really can't... Help me! I'm falling!"
Someone slipped, and with nowhere to rely on his body, he slid towards the cliff beside the mountain road.
The merchants sensed the force coming from the end of the rope and realized that someone was falling behind, so they stopped immediately and hurriedly pulled people.
"A Yue, you tighten the rope, let's work hard together!"
"I'm bored." Ah Yue was suspended on the cliff, with a thick hemp rope tied around his waist to prevent him from falling.
Now he is tired and hungry, unable to use any strength, and it is difficult to climb up the rope.
The old Orion has rich experience. While commanding the crowd calmly and calmly, at the same time pulling people by himself.
"You guys hug the big tree, don't let the seven of us slide down too!"
"The rest of the people wrapped the rope around their wrists. I shouted one, two, three, and everyone pulled hard together!"
"One two three, pull!"
"One two three, pull!"
After a lot of effort, everyone finally pulled Ayue up. The already exhausted people were so tired that they couldn't even stand firmly.
The old Orion did not relax, nervously checked A Yue's physical condition: "A Yue, how did you slide down, did you feel someone pushing you?"
A Yue shook his head blankly, not understanding why the old Orion asked such a question, of course he slipped down by himself, could someone else hurt him?
"Old Sun, what do you mean?" Qi Wu asked, he was the leader of the merchants, and he faintly sensed the problem from the old Orion's question.
The old Orion shook his head and pointed to the ruined temple in front of him: "Hurry up first, and wait until we reach the mountain temple."
It was raining heavily, not an environment for talking about things, Qi Wu nodded, said a few words of encouragement, and told everyone to rush to the mountain temple to take shelter from the rain.
When everyone arrived at the mountain temple, they took off their coir raincoats regardless of their image, sat down on the ground, gasped for breath, and then hurriedly checked whether the things in the basket had been soaked. .
"It's okay, it's okay. Fortunately, it was wrapped with a tarp in advance. Brother Qi had the foresight."
The mountain temple is not very good, but it is spacious. Three old and dusty mountain statues are located in the center, surrounded by dirt and excrement. The tablet with the name of the mountain **** is missing. The two doors were missing, the windows were broken, and the cold wind was blowing in.
People don't care much. For them, any place that can shelter from the rain is a good place.
Qi Wu took out some commodities from his back basket as a tribute, and paid tribute to the three mountain gods, thanking them for lending them the mountain temple to shelter from the rain.
The three mountain gods are clay sculptures, and the skills are not exquisite, but you can also see the difference. The mountain **** in the middle holds a gentleman's sword and looks upright. The mountain gods on both sides are literate and military. , a person with pure yang and righteousness, in the military position, with distinct levels and orderly.
"The mountain **** bless us for a safe journey."
Qi Wu always felt that the three mountain gods were very spiritual, as if they were alive.
