Chapter Fifteen: Funiu Mountain——The assessment is far from over
Chapter 15: Funiu Mountain - The assessment is far from over. The next morning, Lu Qingyu arrived at Qinghe Town early, only to find that Miss Qingyi was already waiting at the intersection.
This girl woke up really early, and she didn't know how bad it would be for her skin to take a good night's sleep! Lu Qingyu muttered something unreasonable in his heart, but he didn't show anything strange on his lips. He just stepped forward and said:
"It seems I'm late. I have troubled Miss Qingyi by waiting for so long. I really shouldn't have. I hope Miss Qingyi can atone for her sins!"
Zhu Qingyi looked at the young man in front of her and felt that her eyes were a little brightened.
Today, Lu Qingyu did not wear the common clothes of the past, but put on a complete set of green clothes. He seemed to be a little less elegant than usual, but a little more heroic. His feet were also well-dressed.
The leggings seem to be ready for a long journey, and there is a bow on the body. The style is somewhat primitive and eye-catching.
Zhu Qingyi waved her hand lightly and said: "It doesn't matter. I just arrived. You have to travel such a long way to come here. You are already diligent! Why are you carrying a bow on your back today? Are you still proficient in it?
Not good at archery?"
Lu Qingyu scratched his head in embarrassment, touched the black long bow on his body and replied: "I really don't know how to do archery. This is just a gift given to me by the old village chief when I left. It is said that it belongs to his family."
Let me keep this ancestral thing with me as a memory, so as not to make me feel lonely outside."
"Old man, thank you for your trouble!" Zhu Qingyi sighed slightly, "My parents are also very reluctant to leave me. They only came back after two years away from home. I am really unfilial!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Qingyi looked back at the town behind her, lowered her head, and felt a little sad.
"But!" Zhu Qingyi's sadness did not last long. She just lowered her head for a while, then raised her head and continued, "But if you want to become a strong person, you must endure the loneliness that others cannot bear.
Only then can you have enough strength to protect yourself and everyone who cares and loves you. Sometimes life is so cruel. Now that you have chosen, you can only move forward bravely and never, ever look back!"
Zhu Qingyi's eyes were bright and firm, but Lu Qingyu's brows suddenly frowned. He quickly lowered his body and pretended to tighten his leggings. He thought to himself, something is wrong. There is something in this girl's words, there is an ominous omen! Why do I feel that I am not
Instead of embarking on the Qingyun Avenue, I stepped onto a pirate ship!
Whether it is a bright road or a dangerous ravine, Lu Qingyu has no choice at this time and can only follow Zhu Qingyi all the way to the end.
As she said, in life, you can only move forward courageously and never look back!
Zhu Qingyi prepared two good horses in the town specifically for traveling.
In fact, with her strength, traveling with all her strength is much faster than riding a horse, but she has to take Lu Qingyu, a follower, and there is still plenty of time, so she can only settle for the next best thing.
Lu Qingyu was at a loss when he rode a horse for the first time in his life. In the past, he had always watched a bunch of Gegebelles riding horses in TV dramas. He thought it was a very simple thing, but after actually riding a horse, Lu Qingyu knew what it was.
It's called "What you see on paper will eventually make you realize it is shallow, but you will definitely know that you have to do it in detail."
After wandering on the horse for a long time, Lu Qingyu almost fell off several times. Fortunately, the horses chosen by Zhu Qingyi were quite docile, and they finally became somewhat obedient. Zhu Qingyi also deliberately slowed down, so Lu Qingyu gradually followed.
Up to Zhu Qingyi's speed, the two walked side by side and slowly left Qinghe Town.
After walking slowly for two days, the two of them were gradually approaching the boundaries of Bibo City.
On the third day, a mountain range appeared in Lu Qingyu's sight.
At this time, Zhu Qingyi suddenly reined in her horse and looked into the distance. Then she pointed forward with her emerald jade finger and turned back to Lu Qingyu and asked, "Do you know where this place is?"
Lu Qingyu touched his nose and replied sheepishly: "I have been living in the countryside since I was a child and have never traveled far. This place is already some distance away from Bibo City, so naturally I don't recognize it."
"Really?" Zhu Qingyi smiled meaningfully, "I think you have a lot of knowledge, and you are not surprised at all changes. You are quite smart!"
"Miss Qingyi is joking!" Lu Qingyu didn't seem to hear the mystery in the question and just smiled lightly.
Zhu Qingyi didn't intend to ask anything, she just wanted to hit Lu Qingyu, so she started the topic again: "This place is called Funiu Mountain, which is the junction of blue waves and falling clouds. Bypass this Funiu Mountain, and then go on
In three or four days, we will reach the boundary of Luoxia City!"
"Why do we have to bypass Funiu Mountain? I don't think the area of this mountain range is very wide. If we go through it, I'm afraid it won't take more than two days to reach Luoxia City!"
"That's not necessarily true. If you want to go through the mountains, you may not be able to reach Luoxia in ten days and a half!" Zhu Qingyi said with certainty.
"Why is this?" The shortcut took more time, which made Lu Qingyu a little confused, so he tentatively asked, "Is there any obstacle in this mountain?"
"Your reaction is quite quick! Zhu Qingyi suddenly smiled, as if he remembered something interesting, and then slowly introduced the situation of Funiu Mountain to Lu Qingyu.
Funiu Mountain was originally the only road between Bibo and Luoxia. Travelers and merchants would pass by here. But later, a group of bandits came from nowhere and established a stronghold in the mountain. This group of mountain bandits
Thieves make a living by robbing passers-by, and they are very diligent and are always guarded day and night. But they are also interesting. Not only do they never harm anyone, but they only rob wealthy people. If there are poor passers-by, they will even
The two nearby city lords wanted to conquer him, but this village lord was a level 3 strong man with very tyrannical strength. In addition, they had done nothing serious, so no one was willing to go.
Take the initiative to provoke.
"Listen to what you said, these guys can be considered grand robbers!" Lu Qingyu heard this with interest. Robbers who rob the rich and give to the poor are always easy to get people's sympathy and recognition. Then Lu Qingyu asked with some confusion.
He said, "Then why do we need to take a detour? We are not rich people. Maybe we can meet a few good guys by walking in the mountains!"
"What a beautiful idea you have!" Zhu Qingyi rolled her eyes at Lu Qingyu, showing a rare expression of daughter-in-law, "They don't help people in vain. If you don't have any money, they will drag you up the mountain to do miscellaneous work for a month.
They have people doing dirty work, and they will give you money to leave before you leave. Even if you perform well, at most they will only give you a little more wages, and at least you will have to spend ten days in the mountains.
Half a month. So people who are in a hurry will still choose to take a detour. Although they sometimes go out to do 'business', the number of times is not many after all, so it is considered safe."
"Oh! These guys are really..." Lu Qingyu couldn't think of any words to describe this group of unique bandits, so he had to change his mind and said, "Then let's go around quickly, we're in a hurry!"
"Of course I want to take a detour, but you don't need to!"
Zhu Qingyi stared at Lu Qingyu with a half-smile, and opened her mouth slightly, but the words she said reached Lu Qingyu's ears like a thunder!
