Chapter 824

    The carriage was moving slowly along the path at the edge of the forest. The two lean horses pulling the cart had to take a little rest on their way, and the driver didn''t mean to urge them. The goods carried by the carriage are very heavy, and the people sitting in the shed and on the edge are not light. The skilled coachman will not force the horse to move fast under such circumstances, especially in such a unguarded field. There are too many emergencies to be prepared for. Precious horsepower can not be wasted on improving the speed of driving. What''s more, the grey lion is not far away.


    However, the driver''s rich experience does not mean that the people on the bus can bear to accept this slow way of driving, "I said, old man, are you driving or herding sheep? Even if the sheep are herded, the shepherd has to whip a few whips! I haven''t heard your whip this morning


    The complainer was a young man, with dark skin and a chest painted with white ethnic patterns painted with sticky powder, even in the slightly cold northern air. According to himself, this white pattern is the tradition of his hometown. People who go far away from home draw these patterns on their bodies by their relatives. As long as these patterns are not erased, they will be protected by their ancestors and can go home safely. No one can tell whether this tradition is really effective, but the young man who respects his mother never tries to break it, and he does follow the old man in his mouth to complete several business trips to remote areas and make a lot of money.


    "You melon child, you drive the horse so tight that if you can''t run to sunset, you will have to give up. Do you want to pull us forward the rest of the time?" The old man replied that he had been driving horses for decades, and everyone in the trade should respect this skill. The most annoying thing for a skilled person is to be pointed at by a layman who doesn''t understand it.


    "The old man said it well. Anyway, melon boy has no strength. Let him pull a carriage first and let us rest." A middle-aged man with his mouth full of tobacco leaves sat on the outermost side of the shed, facing the rear and making a hearty sound.


    As soon as he said this, the young man''s face turned red. As soon as he patted the edge of the carriage, he jumped down from the edge of the carriage, and his powerful legs followed the carriage with no effort! Pull the cart! If I''m going to pull the cart, we''ll be able to get to the melting iron city tonight He said, but also deliberately demonstrated like two steps to the two lean horses, provocatively looking at the two animals do not work hard. To this, the two horses just looked at each other, their noses spurted scornful heat.


    "Go, go back to the bus and sit down. You are really what other people say. Can your two thin legs compare with Ada''s and ah er''s eight legs? You have such a strong arm when you carry things. Your Scud ability has nothing to do with you. " The old man who drove the car said that he would whip people when he raised his whip. People who are familiar with him know that the old man is never soft hearted when he wants to whip people. The whip made of old leather is definitely not good to hit his body. So young people decisively choose to slow down, not to suffer from this loss.


    When the young man sat back on the edge of the bus, he remembered that there was a man sitting on the bus. "Sorry, I asked you to pay for this kind of slow train."


    The same person sitting on the edge of the car was wearing a broad robe with a hood, which was divided into two parts, the upper part to the shoulders and the lower part to the ankle. At the upper and lower seams, there is a circle of tassels hanging down. The color of tassels matches the color of the upper part of the robe. It is slightly fancy but not dazzling. Those simple colors are naturally combined in the way of patterns and lines, simple and elegant. As for the lower part of the robe, it is somewhat disappointing. There are obvious differences in both fabric and craftsmanship from the upper part, which means that the garment is a product of splicing, and it is likely that the inferior quality of the original robe can be remedied if the lower part is damaged.


    But just because the clothes are so bad doesn''t mean the people in them are the same. The chestnut hair protruding from the hood and the white ankles with colored rope loops at the hem of the robe all indicate that the man in the robe is a young woman. Although the broad robe obscured the curve of her body, it was easy to see that the lady was quite well proportioned along the way. However, judging from her posture of getting on and off the carriage and standing and lying down, she is not the kind of person who has lived in the city for a long time. The light smell of wild animals under her robe does not make her disliked, but produces a kind of wild charm.


    This charm is fatal to the young man who also wanders along the border of civilization and wilderness, but his simple nature has not made him meet the lady who pays for the ride except greeting. And his reckless behavior is actually a way to show his ability to the opposite sex.


    "It doesn''t matter, as long as you can get there. I''m not in a hurry. " With a little hoarse voice reminiscent of the warm spring, gentle with the strength of recovery from the cold.


    "Yes, look at them! If I didn''t have friendship with your dead father, I would not have taken you out to do business. It''s more difficult to train than the most powerful horse The old man''s words make the young''s face even more ruddy. It''s hard for him to say so in front of the opposite sex of the same age. But just as he was about to rush out of the car and try to regain his dignity, there was a burst of clear laughter under his robe."Oh, sorry, I didn''t mean anything else." The lady realized the effect of her laughter and apologized. In fact, she is totally superfluous. Even if the young people have all kinds of thoughts, they have lost 90% in her laughter, and the remaining hazy feelings may not even be clear to him.


    "Well!" At this moment, the middle-aged man sitting in the back of the car suddenly cleared his throat, and the eyes of the other two people in the car immediately changed. It''s a sign that they''ve been out for years. There are other people nearby.


    "Would you like to stop eating later?" And all of a sudden, he said, are these people really hostile.


    "I don''t know. I''m not hungry." The middle-aged man replied, "if you don''t know your enemy or friend, don''t disturb them first.".


    "How many fruits did you find yesterday?" How many people are there?


    "Who remembers, I have to turn over my pocket. There may be another five or six." I can''t be sure. About five or six people.


    "Sasha" leaves rubbing sound from the top of the tree crown, a few minutes later, the middle-aged look finally calmed down.


    "Hoo Good guy, these guys are very smart. They can make the branches flat. I''m afraid that few of the best scouts in the army can do this. "


    "Hey, hey, you''re scared. When you and guawazi were looking for food in the last town, I made a special inquiry. It is said that there is Lin Jing in this forest. It should be their patrol team just now. Those long ears, as long as you don''t do anything out of the ordinary will not care about you. I have to thank them. They are guarding the forest, and the bandits dare not get close to it. This is convenient for us to rest assured. "


    "You''ve known for a long time that you told me that I was scared to pee my pants." The middle-aged man said with some exaggeration.


    "I''ll tell you how. If you know that there are Lin Jing in the forest, you will think it''s them. The most taboo is to know too much. If there is any disturbance, you should pay attention to it. It is better to make a false alarm than to let people take out the back road. "


    When the old man and the middle-aged are talking, the young man''s tense muscles are finally relaxed. Since the other two have been so unscrupulous about what has just happened, it shows that the danger has passed. At this time, the lady under the robe asked him in a smaller voice, "what are they talking about Lin Jing?"


    "Oh, Lin Jing is our name. Most people call them elves. That''s the kind of guy who lives in the forest with sharp ears. My mother said they would punish those who cut trees in the forest, and they didn''t like people who brought iron into the forest. But it''s not in the forest yet. As long as we don''t provoke them, they won''t provoke us. "


    The boy didn''t notice that when he talked about the iron ware, the hand under the lady''s robe was slightly tightened and seemed to feel a little nervous.


    The sun, in the vicinity of the Longji mountain, needs to be hidden earlier. The carriage stops when the sun is getting dark.


    "I''m not going forward today. Lin Jing''s patrol shows that it''s not peaceful around here. Let''s have a light fire tonight, no smoke, and watch the night in groups of two. "
