Chapter 89 Letter to Xiao Feng
After leaving Zhongling County, Wei Changtian and his party quickly left Tanzhou and officially entered Luzhou.
The route they chose this time passed through four prefectures along the way, namely Tanzhou, Luzhou, Peizhou and Anzhou, a total of nearly 10,000 miles.
Although this distance may seem far at first glance, in the world of cultivation, even for low-level martial arts, it is not too out of reach.
In this world, it is not difficult for a fast horse to travel a thousand miles a day. Experts above the fifth rank can even run faster than a horse.
Several hundred years ago, after Daning won the national war against Dafeng in the west, a second-rank master traveled 20,000 miles overnight to return to Beijing to announce the good news.
Therefore, although Wei Changtian and his companions were "traveling" while traveling, it would only take about ten days to reach Shuzhou.
…
"Rob the devil!"
“Don’t rob!”
“…”
In the slightly shaking carriage, Wei Changtian was fighting the devil with Yang Liushi and Yuan'er.
They rested in Luzhou City last night and are now heading to Anyi County.
It has been nearly ten days since he left Beijing. Wei Changtian, who has been "on the road" almost every day, has long lost the interest in appreciating the beautiful scenery along the way. In addition, the weather has gradually become colder after the beginning of winter, so he basically "sleeps and plays cards on the bus, eats and goes to the toilet when he gets off the bus."
It’s just like the senior citizen tour group in the previous life.
"Young Master, Shunzi."
Yang Liushi gently placed a stack of cards on the table. Wei Changtian glanced at the cards in his hand casually, shook his head and said:
"don't want."
"Then I win."
Yang Liushi put down the last pair of three in her hand with a smile on her face and applauded herself.
Wei Changtian curled his lips and yawned while shuffling the cards.
For some reason, he always felt that playing cards was not as fun as before without Lu Jingyao.
"Zhang San, you come and fight. I'll take a break."
He gave his seat to Zhang San, who seldom had the chance to sit at the card table because of his excellent memory, and sat down by the car window and stretched.
"Master, have some tea..."
A timid voice sounded beside me. It was Ah Chun who was holding the teacup.
After being taken in, this little girl was originally supposed to follow Liang Qin, but later Liang Zhen felt that his daughter had too many maids, so he gave her to Wei Changtian.
However, Wei Changtian was not used to being served by a little girl who was not even ten years old. It happened that Yang Liushi did not bring a maid with her this time, so he simply gave the girl to Yang Liushi.
So Achun is actually Yang Liushi’s maid now.
Taking the teacup and taking a sip of the tea at just the right temperature, Wei Changtian asked casually, "Ah Chun, why did your parents die?"
"My father was killed by a poisonous snake while hunting in the mountains."
Ah Chun bit her lip and whispered, "My mother died of illness later."
Wei Changtian put the teacup back on the table and asked again: "How old were you at that time?"
"Six years old..."
"You are nine years old this year, right?"
"yes."
"How did you survive in the three years in between?"
"My neighbors in the village felt sorry for me and sometimes gave me some food."
Ah Chun twisted her hands and said, "Occasionally I pick some mountain products and sell them in the city."
“I see…”
Wei Changtian looked at Achun's pigtails and suddenly thought of Wei Qiaoling, who had no worries about food and clothing.
"I have a younger sister who is about your age. She should like you very much."
“…”
Ah Chun didn't know how to respond to this sentence, so he just lowered his head in embarrassment and remained silent.
Seeing her like this, Wei Changtian just smiled and continued to talk to himself: "She has a very stupid dog named Big Ghost."
"dog……"
Ah Chun stammered, "I also had a dog before, named Da Huang."
"What happened to it?"
"One day it ran away, and I searched for it for a long time but couldn't find it."
“It must have been very old.”
"How do you know, sir?"
“…”
Wei Changtian smiled and patted Ah Chun's little head: "It's a good dog."
"oh……"
Achun didn't quite understand what Wei Changtian meant, but nodded anyway.
At this moment, a sound suddenly came from outside the car.
"Master Wei! We are half an hour away from reaching Anyi County. The local county magistrate has arranged a family dinner. The general asked me to come and tell you something!"
"knew!"
Wei Changtian shouted through the window, and the card game on the other side of the car ended at this moment.
Without a doubt, it was Zhang San, the "human card counter", who won again.
Knowing that they were almost reaching their destination, the three of them stopped playing, simply put away the cards, and sat down to rest.
It gets dark early in winter. It’s only the beginning of the evening hour now, but the area outside the window is already orange.
Scientific research in the past has shown that dusk is the time of day when people are most likely to feel homesick, because this is the time to go home for dinner.
However, most of the people in the car did not have such worries at the moment.
Yang Liushi is a demon, Zhang San is an outlaw, and Achun is an orphan... These three have special identities and may have almost lost the concept of "hometown".
Wei Changtian is a time traveler, so if he really misses home, it is the blue earth of his previous life.
So at this moment, perhaps Yuan'er is the only one who really misses the big house in the capital and the people living in it.
"Young Master..."
She quietly moved to Wei Changtian's side, and said tearfully, "I miss my wife and Sister Qiuyun..."
"No, we have only been walking for ten days."
Wei Changtian was speechless at first, but then he thought that Yuan'er had lived in the Wei Mansion since she was a child and had never traveled far, so it was normal for her to feel a little uncomfortable now.
Thinking of this, he wanted to make a little joke to ease the atmosphere: "Well, what I mean is, you are thinking about them, but they may not think about you at all?"
“…”
Yuan'er's body froze, and she cried even harder: "I don't believe it! Madam and Sister Qiuyun must miss me too!"
Damn! How come you have no sense of humor at all!
Wei Changtian realized that his joke had the opposite effect, so he quickly tried to make amends and comforted her: "Okay, okay, don't cry. I was just kidding you!"
"Um?"
Yuan'er's eyes widened immediately, and she soon yelled angrily: "Master, this joke is not funny at all!"
"You, you don't miss them?"
"I?"
Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment, then looked out the window at the setting sun falling over the mountains.
Autumn geese fly thousands of miles away, and thousands of peaks share the sunset.
It would be a lie to say that I didn't want to at all.
Not only Lu Jingyao and Qiuyun, but also Xu Qingwan, Wei Qiaoling and so on...
Well, there is another person he misses the most - Xiao Feng! Wei Changtian can't leave Xiao Feng in the capital to harm the Wei family. As for how to get him to Shuzhou...
…
Capital city, Xuantian Society, Qingmu Hall.
Xiao Feng passed through the secret doors and entered the secret room with a very unhappy look on his face.
He has really had a rough time recently.
First, the plan to lure Wei Changtian to his death failed, not only did he lose almost all the masters of Qingmu Hall, but he himself was chased and intercepted by Xuan Jingsi for more than ten days. Although he managed to escape danger every time, the process was really too thrilling.
Secondly, Wei Changtian inexplicably went and killed Liu Yuanshan, whom he had finally established contact with, and he actually survived!
It's outrageous! Xiao Feng felt that his luck had never been so bad since his parents died, so he hated Wei Changtian to the core.
"Wei Changtian! I must kill you with my own hands!"
"Bang!!"
He punched the wall, and his ordinary but extraordinary face was full of ferocity.
But at this moment, the door of the secret room was suddenly pushed open, and a big man walked in with something in his hand.
"Master, here is a letter, saying it's for you..."
"letter?"
Xiao Feng tried to calm down and turned back: "Who sent it?"
"I don't know that, but the signature on the envelope..."
"Who signed it?"
"Wei, Wei Changtian..."
