I have a magical tree

Chapter 88 The Emperor of Post Stations and Road Construction

For A Niang, once she leaves this place, the probability of returning in this life will be very small.

Unlike Xu Dao, who has only lived here for more than ten years, she has lived here for more than thirty years, and married here to run a household and raise children. It can be said that this place has a different and heavy meaning for A Niang.

Liu got out of the car and stood at the door. She was a little hesitant. After preparing for a long time, she pushed the door and walked in.

Xu Dao did not get out of the car, but just waited outside. After about two quarters of an hour, Liu came out from inside, and her eyes were obviously a little red.

She also had a few clothes in her hand. Xu Dao knew at a glance that they were left by Xu Tianyuan.

"Don't worry, there is still time. If you want to stay a little longer, I'll wait!" Xu Dao said warmly. In fact, the biggest challenge of this long journey is A Niang. Although Xu Dao has some feelings for this place, he is not really attached to it.

As for Xu Lu and the others, it is even more so! At their age, they probably can't understand the so-called hometown feelings. For them, it's just a move.

Liu shook her head, "It's useless to look any more, let's go!"

After saying that, she got on the car directly. In fact, what made her most uncomfortable was not to be away from her hometown, but that she suddenly remembered Xu Dao's father.

Even now, Xu Dao and others still said that Xu Tianyuan was just missing, and this statement would not change as long as the body was not seen one day.

But everyone knows that this is just a consolation. Even the mother who was most reluctant to believe that Xu Tianyuan was dead had already determined this fact in her heart.

After breaking through the sixth rank, Xu Dao also went to look for him on purpose. He didn't expect Xu Tianyuan to be alive, but just wanted to see if he could find any relics left, even if it was just a piece of rag!

But unfortunately, nothing was found, and he didn't dare to go too deep into the Black Mountain. He just searched along the road his father had walked, but found nothing, so he had to give up in the end.

Xu Dao took a deep breath, and the whip soaked in rain suddenly shook, making a bang, and the horse immediately spread its four hooves, dragging the carriage, and galloping at a high speed.

At the city gate, the teacher, his wife and others had been waiting here for a long time. The carriage driven by his wife was Zhongbo.

Ge Lao had been opening the window of the carriage. When he saw Xu Dao and the others had arrived, he said to Zhongbo directly: "Let's go! They will catch up!"

It was so swift and resolute. During the whole process, there was no greeting, but they just rushed on.

Xu Dao was not surprised by this, but whipped the horse's butt hard, making it try its best to keep up with the carriage in front.

They were in a hurry today. It was noon now. There were still more than four hours left, but they had to leave Yanghe County before nightfall. This was a disaster area for monsters.

If they had not left this place at nightfall, it would be very dangerous. They could be attacked by monsters at any time.

So, they were in a hurry now.

Fortunately, the horses pulling the carriage were not ordinary horses. They were a kind of monster horses specially bred by the Dali Dynasty. They were called monster horses, but they were not monsters. They just had the blood of monsters.

But it is this little bit of demon blood that makes this horse tall, with scales on its forehead and chest, amazing endurance and extraordinary strength. Only in this way can it easily drag a fully loaded carriage and run at such a fast speed.

And this horse does not eat grass, but meat! Each meal of blood is nearly 100 kilograms, but after eating, it can run non-stop for a day and a night.

But even so, this horse can only be regarded as an inferior horse in the Dali Dynasty.

A real good horse, a demon horse that can be used as a war horse, has a purer bloodline, a more violent and ferocious temperament, and is covered with scales all over the body, like iron armor, and is difficult to be injured by swords.

Above the good horses, there are dragon blood horses, with hard horns on their heads, scales like golden armor, and can even travel short distances in the wind.

These things are naturally not available in Yanghe County, and even this inferior horse pulling the carriage is extremely rare in the county. The teacher bought it in the capital.

The carriage ran at high speed, which also caused the heavy rain from the sky to hit Xu Dao's face at a terrifying speed, causing a dull pain!

Xu Dao had to protect his cheeks with his blood and qi, so that he could see the road ahead clearly.

Time flew by, and it was dusk in a blink of an eye. At this time, the carriage of Ge Lao and his companions in front finally slowed down.

Xu Dao drove his horse forward and rode side by side with them.

Ge Lao pushed open the carriage window and waved to Xu Dao.

"Teacher, Master's Wife!"

"Are your little sister and Abao okay?" Master's Wife asked with concern.

Xu Dao nodded, "Not bad, but almost at the limit."

A mother was fine. After entering the martial arts, this kind of bumpy ride was a little uncomfortable, but not too unbearable, but my little sister and Abao suffered.

Children's physical strength is not as good as adults, and they have no cultivation. They can't stand it all the way.

Even the lively and active little sister had already fallen asleep at this time.

"Ten miles away, we will reach the border of Yanghe County. There is an official post there. We will rest there for a night, and the road behind will be easier to walk!" Ge Lao pointed to the front.

Xu Dao was relieved when he heard this. They were almost there. He didn't mind if they kept rushing like crazy, but Xiaomei and Abao might get seriously ill. He had been strengthening their bodies every day. Otherwise, something would have happened on the way.

"Brother, how long will it take before we can eat? I'm hungry!" Xiaomei, who had woken up at this time, asked in a daze.

Xu Dao smiled. It seemed that his worries were unnecessary. The first thing he thought about when he woke up was eating. As long as Xiaomei was still thinking about eating, it meant that there was no big problem.

"Hold on for a while, we'll be at the post station soon! I'll take you to eat delicious food later!"

The group slowed down a bit and finally arrived at the last post station in Yanghe County when it was getting dark.

At night, the safety of the post station can still be guaranteed, because the protection level of the post station is the same as that of the county. In a sense, sometimes, the county can have problems, but the post station cannot.

This is to ensure the smooth and timely transmission of information, which is the rule left by the founding emperor of the Dali Dynasty.

News is far more important than the gains and losses of a city or a pond. If a city or a county is lost, it is just a city or a county, but if the information is not transmitted in time, it may be the destruction of the country.

In general, the founding emperor was indeed far-sighted. Why did the Dali Dynasty stand firm even now?

A large part of the role is due to the post station system spread all over the dynasty. These seemingly inconspicuous small stations, in a sense, connect the entire territory of the Dali Dynasty.

In addition, the most important thing that this wise Taizu of the Dali Dynasty did was to build roads. He recruited countless civilians and even conscripted warriors into corvée labor.

Therefore, this founding emperor was also nicknamed the Post Station Emperor and the Road Building Emperor.
