Save the hero

After more than ten days like this, the more we go forward, the more thorny and difficult the road is. Before, every half a day, we could meet small towns and villages, stop to relieve boredom and have a rest, and there are also inns to stay at night.After walking more than half of the way, the human population became less and less, the land became more barren, and the distance between people on the road became longer and longer. Now, from noon yesterday to this morning, it has been almost a day and a night. Met a living person again.

Fortunately, the groom Hong Yuan found was hard-working. He was worried that the groom would sneak away along the way, but he was willing to walk down the road.

The carriage was stumbling, the road was difficult, and the carriage was moving slowly.Tired of staying in the car, the little platypus climbed up to the roof by grabbing the wall of the car, not too cold, lying on its back with its tail wagging.

Fang Qi was lying crookedly on the car. He had been in a small and confined space for a long time. He couldn't wander around and relax like before, and he couldn't go out to let the wind out like a little platypus. Lying on the right is uncomfortable.At first I lay down leisurely, then I sat on my stomach, and finally I got tired of standing, and squatted in the car with my head in my arms in a daze.

Seeing him tossing and turning for a while, he couldn't stay idle for a while, and asked, "Tell a story?"

Fang Qi looked up at him, then shook his head, "Stop talking, I'll be sleepy if I talk about it, and I'll be stupid if I sleep again." After a pause, he added: "If you want to listen...you can talk about it at night, hypnosis."

Hong Yuan didn't answer, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, becoming smarter.

Fang Qi got up and opened the small window and car curtain of the carriage, and stretched out his arms to go up enough. The little duck saw his wagging fingers on it, turned over, from lying on his back to lying on his stomach, rolling hard Tail hooked his fingers.

After making sure that the little guy wasn't knocked down by the carriage, Fang Qi withdrew his hand, put down the car curtain, leaned over to the side of the child, and sat next to him, smiling very kindly.

Hong Yuan turned his head to look at him like a puppy, and said, "Exam?"

Fang Qi said: "That's right, that's right, this needs to be tested more and consolidated."

Hong Yuan sighed, "You ask."

This man couldn't sit still, and even though the journey lasted only more than ten days, he invented several games to relieve fatigue and boredom.I made backgammon a few days ago, and excitedly taught him how to play. He learned quickly and won faster. If this person loses, he will cheat and overturn the board and stop playing.Seeing him staying bored, coaxing him to continue playing chess, it turned out that he was wrong if he won, and it was wrong if he lost. He thought he bullied others if he won, and thought he was deliberately making chess look down on others if he lost. It was extremely difficult to serve.

Later, the exam was invented, three meals a day, more punctual than meals.

"Is the little duck's mouth cute?" Fang Qi asked.

Hong Yuan frowned slightly, never thinking about what Tongmeng meant, but he always knew the correct answer: "Meng."

Fang Qi: "Willing to help others?"

Hong Yuan: "It is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation."

Fang Qi: "The little girl picking mushrooms, can you learn from the little example of parentheses?"

"Lei Feng."

Fang Qi nodded in satisfaction. The topics he formulated were all carefully thought out.The above topic is to teach children the right way and not to be blackened, but it cannot be cultivated into a unparalleled Virgin Mary White Lotus, so...

Fang Qi: "Is there revenge for revenge or revenge for revenge?"

Hong Yuan: "Don't kill innocent people indiscriminately."

Fang Qi: "There are parentheses for grievances and debts?"

Hong Yuan: "Head, Lord."

Fang Qi ticked all the boxes, took a deep breath, and asked with great anticipation: "The last question, is the road uneven?"

Hong Yuan: "...a roar, wow, when it's time to do it, wow."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha my stomach hurts..." Fang Qi laughed until tears came from the corners of his eyes. He asked this question many times and heard the answer many times, but every time he heard the child use ordinary, mechanical and rigid The tone of voice said 'a roar, a shot...', every time I laughed so hard that my face cramped...

There are so many foreshadowings ahead, the last question is the finale.

Hong Yuan looked at him with an expressionless face, leaning back and forth as he laughed, and there was a faint smile in his eyes.

After making trouble for a long time, in the afternoon, the little platypus crawled in through the small window, rubbed against Fang Qi's feet, and raised its paws, chirping for food.

Fang Qi reckoned that he would be sleepy in the carriage again tonight, and he would not be able to cheer up, and he didn't bother to feed it, but he couldn't starve it, so he kicked the child's calf and said, "Feed it."

They had a lot of food in the carriage. Before people were so rare, the child suggested to supply food in the first few small towns.He still dismissed it at the time, feeling that Hongyuan was thinking too much, what he wanted to eat could be considered fresh and delicious, and he still didn't believe that he couldn't spend it if he had money!

In the end, I really had money and no land to spend...

Hong Yuan got up to feed the little platypus, Fang Qi said lazily, "Don't be aggressive with it."

Hong Yuan lifted the white cloth covering the food, and responded almost inaudibly. The little platypus hugged Fang Qi's feet, looked at Hong Yuan hesitantly and timidly, and dared not go there after thinking about it.

Hong Yuan took out a piece of peach cake, looked at the duckling with tears in his black bean eyes, and squatted far away, his expression seemed like he wanted to come but didn't dare to come, couldn't think but didn't dare to take it seriously However, I couldn't help being slightly impatient.

This little soul-eating beast is a typical double-faced person, jumping up and down chirping when facing that person, but wilting when facing him, weak and pretending to be pitiful.He obviously didn't even look at it, but it seemed like he wanted its life.

Why on earth is it kept?

Hong Yuan rubbed his chin, the little duck's beak twitched, and he came over step by step, rubbing the back of his hand flatteringly, holding Tao Su in his arms, and raised his claws to make a bow.Then he ran back, squeaked while running, Fang Qi immediately looked down at it, the little guy yelled for a sense of presence, climbed up his calf, pretended to be extremely cheerful and put Taosu on his knee Come on, push him over there, then call out to Hongyuan twice, and then call out to him twice, indicating that the Great King asked him to send it.

Hong Yuan: "..."

Fang Qi looked at the little duck's mouth with a smile, then looked at Hong Yuan, and said: "It's not in vain to hurt you two. Okay, let's eat together, Hong Yuan, here comes the basket."

Hong Yuan brought the basket in silence, and glanced at the little duck's beak. This little thing is very smart and has found a good backer.

After eating, in the evening, Hong Yuan estimated the distance, opened the car curtain and took a look outside, and said, "I won't sleep in the carriage tonight."

Fang Qi wiped his mouth, regained his energy, and said, "Is there someone in front?"

Hong Yuan nodded.

Fang Qi immediately squeezed Hong Yuan away happily, and stretched out his head to look ahead. He saw a vast road ahead, with dry stones and yellow grass, a long and endless road, and at the end of his vision, there was nothing but desolation and desolation.

Fang Qi looked and looked, but he didn't see that there was anyone there, so he said with a miserable look on his face: "You lied about the military situation."

Hong Yuan said: "I didn't lie to you, you can wait and see."

Fang Qi looked at him suspiciously, waited for a while, then looked outside again, there was nothing, after another quarter of an hour, with the light of the afterglow, he finally saw a faint trace of a row of low houses in front of him.

Fang Qi returned to his seat, Hong Yuan smiled and said, "Did I lie to you?"

Fang Qi said: "I didn't lie." Then he looked at the child's face.

He thinks his eyesight is good, but it is not one-tenth of Hong Yuan's.

In less than half an hour, the carriage must have traveled more than ten miles, right?From so far away, can you really see things clearly?

Is his eyesight really so good, or is he a prophet?

The child's dark eyes looked at him. It is said that when two people look at each other for a long time, there will always be some embarrassment and discomfort, but he does not.Fang Qi looked into his eyes, but he couldn't see anything except that he was really very beautiful.

The carriage slowed down in less than half a quarter of an hour, and there were voices in my ears from time to time, which meant that it was about to enter the city.

Fang Qi opened a corner of the sedan chair curtain and looked out, only to see that the village houses were desolate, and the people walking on the street were all yellow and emaciated, ragged, with numb expressions, like walking corpses.

Fang Qi frowned and said, "Why are you getting poorer and poorer? Where is the Valley of Thousand Corpses? How far is it?"

Hong Yuan said: "Pass the Ten Thousand Beast Forest, and then go another eight hundred miles."

Fang Qi choked for a moment, and said, "What? Passed the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest? No way... I don't remember it, oh no, how did you know?"

Hong Yuan said: "Guess."

Fang Qi: "..."

Fang Qi was reminded by the child, although he didn't know whether it was true or not, but following this clue, he found that it made sense.The location of the Valley of Thousand Corpses is hidden, and the original book does not have much ink, but there are many descriptions of the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts.

The Ten Thousand Beasts Forest is the lair of monsters, and monsters often come out to hurt people, so there are few residential houses.But the magic beast has many functions, and there are always monks thinking about it. If one is lucky enough to kill one, even a low-level magic beast can make a lot of money.Some people with high skills and boldness, seeking wealth in danger, set up inns and restaurants in the area near the forest of beasts.

There are also some people who moved to other places to make a living early.But there are still quite a few brains, because the ancestors and grandpas have lived here for generations, this is their root, and they are unwilling to move.

This has formed a very strange phenomenon, the closer to the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts, the richer they are, and the aborigines who come outside are those who rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water, and those who have no mountains and no water, rely on the land to eat the land. For goodness sake, the lowest quality of life.Continue to look outside, it is the part of people who move their nests and live. There are few people in the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest, and they can't do business. If they move to a place with a lot of people to live, they can't be counted, and they can't starve to death.

Fang Qi recalled the journey before, when he was two or three hundred miles away, there was basically no one to see.Looking at the small town that I finally came across now, although it is dilapidated, it looks like a small town with a large area.

The carriage rattled through the city, Fang Qi looked out quietly, and from time to time, farmers passing by would steal their eyes curiously.Fang Qi looked at both sides of the street and breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that there would be no inns or hostels in such a remote and self-sufficient town.But on the contrary, there are mostly inns and restaurants here, but the population is really depressed, and there are almost no foreign visitors.
