After time travel, my best friend and I exchanged supplies and became a rich woman
Chapter 135 Ruined Station
Because he encountered official robbery, Zhang Cheng was extra careful during the rest of the journey.
Whenever he saw a group of people begging on the road, he would ask the horse team to speed up and drive away.
But in Liaozhou Prefecture, it is also the time of farming. In addition, like Nanzhou Prefecture, there is also a drought and little rain this year, so the growth of fruits and vegetables is worrying. And because bandits are popping up everywhere in Manzhou Prefecture, the people are almost It's hard to live a normal life.
Therefore, most old people and children will choose to run out to beg.
Especially in villages closer to official roads, almost every household has someone coming out to be a beggar.
If you can get food, that's the best. If you can't get food, then dig some wild vegetables or pick some bark and go home.
Therefore, if they want to avoid most of the beggars on the official road, the horse team can only gallop and rush past them before they are targeted.
Fortunately, Dadunzi's horses are strong enough, so it is not difficult to pull so many people for a long distance.
But Chen Dongyue's broken horse is different.
This guy has short legs to begin with. For the same distance, other people's long-legged horses can do two flips, but this horse has to flip three or four times to cover the same distance as others.
In addition, when I bought this thing, it was very cheap, so I didn't have enough endurance. Even if I only pulled Chen Dongyue by myself, I could barely keep up with the cavalry without falling too far behind.
This made Chen Dongyue extremely anxious.
Seeing that the poor horse was running slower and slower, she pushed forward with all her strength, thinking that she could give the horse a little help to move forward, just like riding a bicycle.
But the pony's legs had already weakened from running at this time, and it couldn't bear the force of Chen Dongyue's forward kick.
As a result, one person and one horse fell completely.
Fortunately, the horse was short enough, so it wouldn't hurt if it fell off. Chen Dongyue got up with a curse, and had to subdue the broken horse to get up...
"I really don't know how many evil things I have done in my last life!!" Chen Dongyue cursed as she helped her horse.
Ma: I don’t know how many sins I have committed in my last life! !
"You will be called Chen Gangdan from now on." Chen Dongyue patted the back of her broken horse, "Isn't it good for a weak horse to have a steely name?"
...what a piece of shit.
Does Kema have a choice?
He could only snort a few times in protest.
But Chen Dongyue felt that this horse must really like the name she gave it, so it snorted.
One person and one horse, so unpleasant at all, decided on the horse's new name.
"Sister Dongyue!!"
Suddenly someone came riding from the front.
Chen Dongyue looked up and saw a young man from the Zhang family's escort team.
"What's wrong? What happened up front?" Chen Dongyue asked, quickly straddling her legs and riding on Chen Gangdan.
"Everything is normal up front," the young man reined in the horse's rope and said, "The captain saw that you didn't follow, so he asked me to turn back and see if there was anything wrong with you."
"I have nothing to do," Chen Dongyue also pulled up the reins, "Let's continue on our way!"
"Hey, great!" The young man nodded, "We are still about five miles away from the inn where we will stay tonight, and we will be there soon."
After saying that, the young man rode forward.
But it can be seen that he also deliberately slowed down his horse.
Chen Dongyue patted Chen Gangdan's head, "Did you hear that? It's coming soon. Just keep holding on!"
After saying that, she shouted, ‘Drive! ’, and then pinched the horse’s belly twice before Chen Gangdan started running again.
Now Chen Dongyue and Chen Gangdan have formed a small tacit understanding between them.
Braking means clamping the horse's belly for a long time.
To start, you pinch the horse's belly twice in a short period of time.
This person and the horse are both different, so the horseback riding also has some new tricks.
......
Five miles away, we arrived quickly on horseback.
At this time, the sunset has begun to set.
People who have been traveling all day are exhausted.
Especially today, Qiao Sanmei and Song Yun, who had quarrels, fights, and motion sickness, felt their legs were weak when they got out of the car.
But the problem is...
"Captain Zhang," Song Yang looked at the chaos in front of him, blinked, and looked at Zhang Cheng, "This inn seems to have been burned down..."
"It's quite burned..." Da Dunzi got off the carriage and kicked the charcoal at his feet. "If it hadn't been marked on the map, I wouldn't have known that this place was a post station before."
"...How can this be done? Should we continue on our way or what?" Song Bufan also came over and asked.
Zhang Cheng was also stunned by the sight in front of him.
"Ten miles further, there is a section of mountain road. As shown on the map, that section of the mountain road is not short, probably about twenty miles. After exiting the mountain road, it is not far from Liaocheng, the capital of Liaozhou.
But the problem is, if we want to leave now, we have to walk on a mountain road at night, which is too dangerous. "
Hearing what Zhang Cheng said, everyone lamented.
How can this be done?
At this time, Chen Dongyue, who was last, also arrived.
"What's going on?" She got off her horse, walked to the site of the inn with her hands behind her back, and said, "The inn we're staying in today is quite wild."
"Pfft." Da Dunzi couldn't help laughing.
The young people couldn't help laughing when they heard what Chen Dongyue said was funny.
Only Zhang Cheng frowned. Sometimes he was really annoyed by Chen Dongyue's imprudence, "Miss Dongyue, now is not the time to joke."
"Then what's the deal?" Chen Dongyue shrugged at Zhang Cheng, "From my perspective, in Liaozhou, only Prince Kang's Mansion is safer, and other places are pretty much the same.
I saw that this place was very empty, with no woods in front and no bamboo garden in the back. We would camp here at night and everyone would just take turns on duty.
Besides, a large place also has its advantages. If anything happens, it will be easier for us to fight. "
"...Miss Dongyue, can't we just wait for ourselves?" Mr. Lu held his forehead.
He never expected that the Liaozhou capital would now be in a state of difficulty.
Just four or five years ago, when he was passing through Liaozhou, he thought this place was a good place with rich water and grass and rich products.
But now... let alone talking about goods and goods, since they entered Liaozhou, they have encountered either beggars or robbers, which is totally out of character! !
"The problem is, in this Liaozhou Prefecture, it seems normal to be robbed and stolen." Chen Dongyue muttered.
Also.
Anyway, Liaozhou is like this now. You may encounter bad people wherever you go.
Maybe after entering the inn, the inn's chief and the gangsters might have some connections.
Forget it, now that it's here, settle it down.
Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng nodded to Chen Dongyue, "Okay, then listen to Miss Dongyue, we will camp here today.
Everyone from the escort team and patrol team, come and assemble, I will arrange the watch! ! "
"Everyone else, come over to my side," Chen Dongyue raised her hand, "Let's tidy up the place, and then those who need to light the fire, and those who need to cook, cook. I still have some naan here, so if you are hungry, you can rest first! "
Along the way, everyone had become accustomed to listening to Zhang Cheng and Chen Dongyue's arrangements, so they consciously divided into two groups and began to prepare for sleeping outdoors at night.
After Zhang Cheng had arranged his manpower, the logistics team led by Chen Dongyue had also sorted out the original front yard of the station.
The cook brought by Boss Shang was cooking ham and mushroom rice in a large pot. Jun Lan, Tu Gen and the other children were squatting next to the pot, eating grilled naan and waiting for the meal to start.
Chen Dongyue, who was feeding the cows, horses, chickens and dogs, saw Li Xiucai running towards the grass slope not far away. He asked Song Yang, who was sharpening his knife, "Yang, what are Li Xiucai doing?"
"What can we do?" Song Yang raised his head and looked in front of him, "It's convenient."
"Oh... you feed the animals, and I'll go and take care of them." After saying that, Chen Dongyue stuffed the whole bag of fruits into Song Yang's hands.
Song Yang, who looked incomprehensible, blinked twice before he realized what was happening. He shouted in a low voice: "Sister-in-law!! What are you doing when Li Xiucai went to pee!! Sister-in-law, come back!! Sister-in-law!!"
But his sister-in-law had basically never listened to him in her life, so...Song Yang's shouting was in vain.
