Descendants of Pangu in the Great Desolation

Chapter 56 Seven People Walk Together

There was no one on the official road in the afternoon, and it seemed a bit deserted.A carriage came from the north, and the laughter on the carriage made the deserted official road a little angry.

A boy about ten years old in the car asked the older boy beside him: "Brother Hai, where should we go for fun? Should we go south to the southern Fujian area, or go west to see the scenery of the Yuan Dynasty?" He said to the three young men driving the car: "I don't know either. Brother Jing, what do you think? Xu Lu and Qi Shun also think about where we should go. It's also my first time leaving the capital."

That's right, all the members of our play team are sitting in this carriage. The seven of us have just left the capital and are discussing where to go.You ask why there are seven people, but there are only five people in the car?The rest of the two sat in the car and were busy.What are you busy with?How should I put it, one of them is busy eating, and the other is busy taking advantage.

Looking at the scenery along the way is really beautiful. Although it has entered September, the trees are still lush and green, and the singing of birds is like a marching horn urging us to go on the road.I turned around and shouted to the two people in the car: "Xiaoyou, sister Axiu came out to see how beautiful the scenery is, don't you feel aggrieved by staying in the car?" The [-]-year-old boy poked his head out for a look, put his left hand on his reddish cheeks and said, "What's so interesting about this scenery? How can there be any delicious snacks?" Just as he said that, a woman appeared from behind the boy, Touching the boy's cheeks with both hands, he said, "It's just that the scenery is not pretty at all. How can this white, soft and smooth face be fun? Go to Xiaoyou, let's go in, I still have sweet-scented osmanthus cakes." Xiaoyou clapped her hands Said: "Osmanthus fragrans, yes, yes."

I looked at the two people who had just popped their heads and retracted, and shook my head helplessly. Maybe they are people from this world. They have long been accustomed to these sights that cannot be seen on the earth in the 21st century. Forget it, I appreciate it Well, how do they understand that if you want to hear the singing of birds, you have to go to the zoo, and if you want to see the trees, you have to go to the park.

Situ Jing, who was sitting in front of the car, said, "Hai, let's go to southern Fujian. It's September and the weather and scenery there are very good. It's very suitable for sightseeing, and there are many delicious things there."

"Minnan, I heard from Uncle Fu that it's a good place." I was thinking about going to Minnan, but when I saw Xu Lu's hesitant expression, I asked, "Xu Lu, where do you think we should go? Is there any place worth recommending?" Xu Lu glanced at me and said awkwardly: "Master, how about we go to Chuanze, although there are not as beautiful scenery in southern Fujian, there are many scenic spots, such as Peacock Mountain and Qingze Lake It's not bad." Situ Jing on the side said, "Chuanze? Why haven't I heard of this place?"

I saw that Xu Lu seemed to want to go to this place and asked: "Xu Lu, I really want to go to Chuanze, right? If we want to go, we can go. Anyway, we are going out this time for fun. It doesn't matter where we go. What do you think, Brother Jing?" Situ Jing lost his temper when he heard me say that, he just frowned and said, "It's okay to go to Chuanze, but I don't know the way, how should we go?" Xu Lu heard me Agreeing to go to Chuanze, he hurriedly took the horsewhip from Situ Jing's hand and said, "Let me drive the carriage, young master, go and sit inside."

"It happens that I'm tired too, I'll go in for a rest, you have to drive carefully, don't bring us all into the ditch." Situ Jing saw Xu Lu say so and let him go, stood up and walked into the car to rest , Situ Jie said that he was a little hungry, so he went into the car with Situ Jing, leaving only the three of us.

I don't think Xu Lu would mention Chuanze, an obscure place, for no reason. He must have his reasons for mentioning it, so I asked him, "Xu Lu, tell the truth, do you have any reason for mentioning Chuanze?" Seeing me asking this question, Xu Lu smiled and said: "The young master still knows me. The reason why I mentioned going to Chuanze is because that is my hometown. It has been seven or eight years since I left home with my father. I have always wanted to go back and see my hometown. Look at the mother buried there. Dad said that the wages saved in the past few years are enough for us to go back to our hometown, but we must not forget our gratitude and never forget that Prince Ping took us in and gave us food when we were in trouble, and there is no one in our hometown to go back It's useless, so I won't go back at all. He also said that if I want to go back, I will use the money I have saved in the past few years to redeem me when I become an adult, and let me go back to my hometown to sacrifice my mother." Hearing what Xu Lu said I also thought of my mother, I wonder how she and Cousin Xiang are doing well?

In fact, when Xu Lu entered the mansion with his father, only Xu Lu's father, Xu Shuan, signed the contract of sale, and Xu Lu was still free.But because of the acne incident, Xu Shuan felt ashamed, so he signed a contract of prostitution for Xu Lu, that is, he only worked without getting paid, so as to make up for the fault of not dissuading him in time and contracting acne.Even though he said so, his mother still paid Xu Lu a lot of wages every month, so Xu Shuan always worked hard to repay his father and mother.

I looked at Xu Lu, whose eyes were slightly red, and said, "It's normal to go back to the hometown to worship our mother. Anyway, it's okay if we have time to go. But the ugly thing is up front. If it's Peacock Mountain, Qingze Lake It’s not as good as what you said, I will never forgive you, I will let Xiaoyou throw you into Qingze Lake to feed the fish and shrimp.” Xu Lu immediately panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: “Master, although I There are suspicions of deception, but Peacock Mountain and Qingze Lake are really beautiful, not to mention other beautiful and elegant peacocks can be seen everywhere on Peacock Mountain, and if you are lucky, you can even see the rare peacock flying southeast." I Pretend to be very serious and said: "Really? Peacocks fly southeast, is it rare?" Xu Lu hurriedly nodded and stammered and said: "Yes, young master, very...very rare." I laughed and said: "Look You are so scared, I am just talking, as for? Is Xiaoyou really so scary? You are so scared that you stutter." Xu Lu wiped the sweat from his forehead with his left hand and said: "Master, you have no experience. However, I still remember it vividly. Now I can be bitten by a snake and be afraid of well ropes for ten years."

The way Xu Lu talked while wiping his sweat was really funny, even Qi Shun, who had been speechless all this time, also laughed.I stopped making fun of him, turned around and glanced at Qi Shun who had been sitting there silently, and asked, "What about you, Qi Shun, is there any place you want to go? Tell me, today I will fulfill all your wishes." , but one thing is not allowed to ask me for money, my young master is now penniless, all the money given by my parents and the emperor's uncle was searched by Axiu, saying that it was not safe to put it on me, I think she is just a mobile phone The cash drawer" I said happily, but I didn't see Qi Shun winking at me all the time.

"Master, what are you talking about about me, Axiu, behind my back? I didn't hear clearly, can you please repeat, Master?" As soon as I finished speaking, a voice of gnashing of teeth came from behind me, and I almost fell out of the car in fright. .

I didn't need to turn my head to know that I was going to die this time. I slowly turned my head and showed a very bright and sunny smile to Axiu and said to her: "Sister Axiu, why don't you just rest in the car and come out to do what? The sun is very bright, it’s not good to burn your skin, go in quickly.” The corner of Axiu’s mouth twitched and said, “Young master cares about me very much, I’m coming out to see if the young master is hungry, do you want some snacks? It seems that Axiu is worrying too much, I think this plate of three fresh lotus cakes is better for Xiaoyou, young master." When I saw the three fresh lotus cakes in Axiu's hands, my stomach cried out in disbelief. Seeing that she was about to go back, she hurriedly grabbed her hand and said with tears in her eyes: "Sister Axiu, I'm so hungry, I'd better eat this plate of three fresh lotus flower cakes. Anyway, Xiaoyou ate so much." If there are too many, it doesn’t matter if you eat less, right.”

Axiu looked at my expression and said happily, "Okay then, it looks like I abused you. I can't bear to complain to my wife when I get home. Take it." I took the plate and smiled. Then he said to her: "Sister Axiu, how could I sue? I'm a good boy and I never sue."

"It's no wonder I believe what you say, eat quickly, I'm going in," Axiu said, then turned and opened the car door and walked back.

I patted my chest and let out a bad breath and said, "It's really dangerous. I almost lost my life. Why didn't you inform me that she was behind? Fortunately, Master Ben was quick-witted, otherwise it would be a big loss." Qi Shun looked Looking at me, I said: "My son, the little one has been winking at you just now, but you just ignored the little one. What you said was a joke, and the little one can't help it." I saw Qi Shun feeling a little guilty and said : "Forget it, it's all over anyway, don't mention it anymore, come and have some snacks. Qishun, now that we are out of the house, don't talk about the prince and the little one. From now on, you will shout like Xu Lu." My young master, do you understand?" Qi Shun nodded and said: "I understand, young master." I nodded and handed the snack to him and said: "That's right, let's have some snacks."

Xu Lu, who was driving by the side, saw that Qi Shun was so nice to me, and said with some taste: "Young master, if you have a newcomer, you will forget about me as an old one, and I want to eat it too." I stuffed a piece of lotus flower cake into Xu Lu's mouth, Said: "Eat, eat, look at Qi Shun, I'm jealous, right?" Xu Lu blushed a little when he heard me say that, and ate his snacks to himself, I couldn't help laughing when I saw him like this up.
