Chapter 126 Pine
In the evening, the caravan stopped to rest, and Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan also stopped their carriages far away.
At night, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan sat beside the carriage with the door open. Zhenren Decheng and Zhenren Shanzheng drank wine and admired the moon.
The caravan was noisy as usual, with all kinds of noises and children running and laughing.
Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said to Shi Zelan: "This caravan is really lively."
Shi Zelan nodded: "Very good. Xiaoliu, they have a fire next to each carriage."
They also built a fire nearby, and Shi Xiaoliu went over and threw a piece of firewood into the fire.
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng came down from the carriage and said to Shi Zelan, who was sitting under the carriage, "It's getting late. You should go into the carriage and have a rest."
Shi Zelan entered the carriage obediently, and Shi Xiaoliu sat at the door of the carriage and talked to her.
After a while, the leader of the caravan came over with two guards carrying a wine jug. They raised the wine jug in their hands to Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng and said, "It is fate that we meet."
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng raised their glasses towards him and said, "We brothers are not good at eating and drinking, please forgive us, sir."
The leader of the guards sat down cross-legged and said to Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng, "Where are you four going?"
Master Decheng said to him sincerely, "We want to go to the capital to watch the number one scholar parade."
"If you keep going slowly like this, you will definitely make it to the capital to watch the number one scholar parade."
Master Shanzheng went to the carriage, took out a pot of wine from his sleeve without telling the caravan guards, and then turned around and walked away.
After Master Shanzheng handed the wine jug to Master Decheng, he allowed him to invite the caravan guards to sit down and drink together.
The head of the guards looked at Master Shanzheng curiously and asked, "Does this little brother have any martial arts skills?"
Master Decheng smiled and said, "We have lived in seclusion in the mountains for a long time, so I learned some sword techniques from the elders at home. I don't know how well I have learned, but when I go out, I feel more courageous."
The leader of the guards curiously proposed to compete with Master Shanzheng, but Master Shanzheng politely declined.
"I have practiced sword fighting for many years and have never fought with anyone. You and I are destined to be together, and I really don't want to hurt anyone unintentionally.
How about letting my little disciple come out and fight with you caravan brothers on my behalf? ”
At this time, Shi Zelan jumped off the carriage with a wooden sword in his hand and saluted the leader of the caravan guards.
The leader of the guards looked him over and said to the guards behind him, "Ask Nian Tou to come and fight with this young lady."
Shanzheng Zhenren sent a message to Shi Zelan: "Sister Lan, you are not allowed to use spiritual energy."
Shi Zelan naturally agreed, and when the young man called Niantou came over, the two of them fought in the open space.
Shi Zelan thought about her own status, so she didn't dare to attack Niantou violently during the fight. Niantou looked down on Shi Zelan at first, thinking that he could defeat Shi Zelan with just two or three moves.
As a result, after going back and forth twenty times, Shi Zelan still had some strength left, but he was already out of breath.
"It's the beginning of the year. Just admit defeat."
"Sister Lan, find an opportunity to step back and avoid it."
Shi Zelan was just looking for an opportunity when she saw the words of the guard leader. She jumped to the side, bowed to Niantou and said, "Thank you."
Niantou looked at her with admiration: "Miss, your swordsmanship is better than mine."
Shi Zelan looked at him awkwardly: "I am very strong, but sometimes I use brute force. You are smart and know how to dodge. I want to learn from you."
Shi Zelan quickly retreated to the side of the carriage and then entered it.
The leader of the guards was curious and asked the Taoist master Shanzheng about the situation: "Brother, has your disciple got married?"
Shanzheng Zhenren smiled and said, "Before she came out, the clan leader told her fortune and she is suitable for late marriage."
The head of the guard said disappointedly: "Yes, a good girl will never have trouble finding a husband."
The leader of the guards quickly led his men away. Master Decheng asked Master Shanzheng, "Are we still going with the caravan?"
"Of course. If he arranges for someone to fight with Sister Lan tomorrow, I think it's a good thing."
Master Decheng told Master Shanzheng: "When people in the secular world admire someone, the first thing they ask about is the person's marriage."
Shanzheng Zhenren looked at him and said, "Then you have to be prepared. If he wants to befriend us, he will definitely ask about our marriage."
Master Decheng rubbed his head in distress: "I don't want to create a wife out of nothing."
Shanzheng Zhenren looked at him and said with a smile: "I don't have a deep friendship with him, so I'll leave everything to you."
He quickly closed his eyes. Master Decheng looked at Shi Zelan sitting in the car, then looked at Shi Xiaoliu sitting next to the car. He sighed and closed his eyes.
After Shi Zelan watched the two of them fall asleep with their eyes closed, he said to Shi Xiaoliu, "Xiaoliu, will you keep watch for half the night?"
"No, I'm just going to close my eyes and rest. You two can go to sleep."
Master Shanzheng didn't even open his eyes and gave instructions directly to Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan.
Shi Zelan gestured to Shi Xiaoliu to sleep on the frame, while she slept comfortably in the carriage.
Before dawn, Shi Zelan heard the sound of a caravan moving ahead, so she opened the carriage and got out.
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng stood up and stretched their arms and legs, and they quickly entered the carriage.
Shi Xiaoliu followed and climbed down the carriage. Shi Zelan sat down beside the carriage and whispered, "Uncle Master, Master, we don't need to be too close to them tonight."
Master Decheng chuckled and said, "Perhaps we can stay next to the caravan tonight and sleep peacefully on the open ground at night."
"Yes, we will be in the city in two days. We will have a good rest in the inn for a day."
Shi Zelan and Shi Xiaoliu went to the river and brought a pot of river water into the carriage.
When it got light, the caravan moved forward. Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan extinguished the firewood and waited for a while before they drove the carriage onto the official road.
Along the way, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan viewed the flowers and enjoyed the scenery. When they saw farmers working in the fields, they stopped and took a closer look.
It was not until evening that they caught up with the caravan, and then they stopped not far away to make a fire and fetch water.
The leader of the guards came over and said to Master Decheng, "Tomorrow, you must follow closely behind us. There are too many idle people on the road ahead."
Master Decheng understood his reminder and immediately explained with a smile: "Okay, we will follow the caravan tomorrow.
Today, the two children came down from the mountain after living there for a long time. When they saw farmers working in the fields, they stopped and watched for a while. ”
The guard leader smiled and said, "You brothers are very kind, and your two disciples are also smart and cute."
Master Decheng smiled and said, “After this trip down the mountain, we will not go down the mountain easily again.
We want them to relax and gain more experience during their time at the foot of the mountain. ”
