Chapter 033: The Ancient Road


Don't pay attention to it, Miss Ren's eyes are all on the Qingji soldiers on the right who are marching all the way.

It's a pity that it's too far away, and she can't take a serious look, but it is difficult to find that person from the crowd, and she can't help but feel a little uneasy.

Besides, the road he took was a small road on the river embankment, and the road was narrow, which was not conducive to the walking of chariots and horses, but his soldiers were mostly foot soldiers, which was more suitable for training marches.

In particular, there are willows on the embankment, and the willows are lined up, and it is cool to walk in the shade of the trees.

There are a few peasant families living along the river, scattered in the woods and grasses, and the beautiful scenery here is full of primitive taste, just like a fairy tale world, in later generations, to find such beautiful scenery, but you can only see it in the depths of the high mountains and rivers, where human destruction is not obvious, but it can be seen everywhere here.

The Qilu area belongs to Dongyi, Dongyi people are tall, the folk customs are simple, although Lu is the most thorough place to carry out the Zhou rites, but it is limited to the residents in the city, that is, the people.

The common people in the countryside are savages, and they are not yet among the indoctrination, so along the way, it is common to wear a pair of Dongyi girls with round and white thighs exposed under the skirt, or walk on the ridge of the field, or drive the sheep to sing in the grass.

The beauty of the chai house, the ancient relics, and the eyes of Qingji are also bright.

I really don't know why, many human behaviors and thoughts have made a big turn in the middle, and it will take thousands of years to return to the basics.

A short distance further on, there is a large river called the Lok Ma River.

The Luoma River leads directly to Yishui, and he heard Ren Ruoxi say that when they arrive at the Luoma River, they will change boats, and when they arrive at Yangguan, they will enter the realm of Qi State, and the river that Qingji runs along the embankment also leads to the Luoma River.

The sky has gradually had twilight, a flat river ahead, may be washed by the river in the rainy season, here is a large flat sandy land, there are no trees and artemisia grass, only knee-deep grass, a big river at the end of the grass, from a distance it looks like a silver bright jade belt around the green grassland, the jade belt has a little black shadow, is the boat shuttling back and forth.

Qingji stood up and looked around, the Lok Ma River that lay beyond Li Xu was a flat sand land at his feet, and the river he was running along the embankment made a bend here, turned sideways to the right, and then meandered into the river.

On the right is a flat land five or six miles long, and at the end is a high hill, high and steep, and a loess slope covered with dense forests.

Qing Ji sighed, thinking: It should be safe when he arrives here, just get on the boat, don't believe that he can spread his hands and eyes to the sky, and the waterways and dry roads can mobilize countless people and horses to rob and retaliate again.

Looking back at Ren Ruoxi's convoy still moving slowly on the road, Qingji ordered the whole army to rest on the spot, some of the soldiers lay down on the soft grass and sand, and some ran down the ditch and drank water with their leather helmets.

Qingji sat on the horse, looked in the direction of the Ren family's convoy, and hesitated to know whether to meet her.

His subordinates are all rough men, even if they are as shrewd as Liang Huzi, they guessed that the so-called hunting and training army of the lord was actually to protect the Ren family's convoy to the north, but he didn't expect that there were personal emotions mixed with it.

However, Ying Tao was as careful as a hair and saw some clues.

Although he didn't know the details of the bloody battle on the front street last night, after the gossip man Ah Qiu came back, he had already boasted to him and Bai Ni, Yi Wei and others, how Gongzi threw a big thief away with a spear, how he forced back Dakou Gu Junhai with a sword, how he killed countless enemies, how Ren Ruoxi admired him, and wiped the blood-stained spear for him with his own hands, etc., his description is similar to the description of the male protagonist Wang Ba in later novels.

Ying Tao was on the mind when he heard this, he was a local, the goods of the Ren family came and went from the north to the south, although Miss Ren did not often personally lead the team to come and go, but her family was no stranger to the people of Qicheng, from her family's mouth, Miss Ren has always been arrogant, and she loves cleanliness very much, so that she does not avoid the smell of wiping weapons for a man, the relationship between the two is probably not just as simple as cooperation.

At this time, seeing Qingji sitting in the distance, staring at the direction of the Ren family's convoy, he walked closer and persuaded: "Son, say goodbye today, I don't know when we will meet in the future, why don't we go and see each other."

Qingji was hesitant, but when he heard him, his mood calmed down: "My actual age is not too young, why do I still look like a chick to meet at this time, it is better not to see it, a proud and conceited girl like her, if it is glued tightly, it is not beautiful."

Wu Guo is going to fight sooner or later, whether he has fate with her or not, whether he is a friend or an enemy in the end, it's hard to say now, what can he do if he sees her?"

Qingji shook his head when he thought of this, he turned over and dismounted, threw the reins of the horse, let the horse go to the embankment to graze, and said loudly: "Everyone should rest on this embankment for a while, and when the Ren family's convoy gets on the boat, we will return to Qicheng."

Ying Tao smiled, took a dogtail in her mouth, and stepped aside.

Qingji walked down the embankment, washed his face with the cool and clear river water, drank a few sips of sweet river water, and then walked back to the embankment.

When I looked up, I saw Cherry looking into the distance, and suddenly she walked under a tree, spat on the palm of her hand, and climbed up with her hands and feet like an ape.

He stood on a tree branch, looked in the direction of the Ren family's convoy with a canopy in his hand, and suddenly said urgently: "Childe, the situation is different, the Ren family's convoy is coming in a hurry, as if someone is chasing after it." ” Qingji turned his head to see, sure enough, it was dusty, he hurriedly jumped on the war horse and looked at the road, and saw that the Ren family convoy was in a hurry, because the soil on the road was dry, the wheels were rolling, and a piece of dust was raised, and more than ten cars in front of him could still be seen, and a yellow dragon was rolling behind, and all the traces were annihilated in the dust.

Qingji's heart tightened, and he immediately shouted: "Gather the team and immediately intersperse it from the grassland":
