The wheels sunk deeply into the soft grass, leaving ravines, and the strong wind stirred up dust all over the sky. The long roars from the war horses from time to time were full of unwillingness and inexplicable fear.
It seemed that the one who stepped into the car earlier was not the Buddha that was sent away by thousands of Buddhas in Xuankong Temple, but a ferocious beast that made everything on the grassland tremble.
Suddenly, a war horse let out a very shrill roar, and then it slowly fell to the ground. However, the carriage made of steel did not stop because of this, but ran over its body and crushed it.
On the soft grass.
The smell of horse blood filled the carriage. The closed-eyed Buddha in the carriage opened his eyes, and his long and drooping white eyebrows frowned slightly.
Then the carriage stopped, and the surviving horses hurriedly lay down on the ground to enjoy the hard-won rest.
But at this moment, a group of elite knights from the royal court on the right came from the sand dunes in the distance. When they arrived in front of the carriage, they dismounted neatly, knelt down in front of the carriage and prayed.
After a long time, they did not go to greet the Buddha on the carriage, but very familiarly picked up the huge water bag to clean the wheels stained with horse blood.
After cleaning the wheels and applying extremely precious spices, they put a new war horse on the shaft, and several people began to kneel down to pray again.
As the carriage moved forward, patches of dust were raised on the grassland.
However, one person shed tears, and his eyes towards the carriage were no longer as pious as before, but full of resentment.
Because a horse once carried him back to his hometown after being seriously injured on a battlefield full of broken limbs and flesh, but the horse was crushed into the sand by the car.
But at the next moment, his pupils suddenly dilated...
Dahei's back is very wide, and Ye Chao can lie on it very comfortably, throwing the little sparrow as a ball into the distance, and when the little sparrow flies back with an angry look on his face, he catches it and throws it out.
Dahei liked this scene very much, so it walked very fast and extremely smoothly. Therefore, in just two days, they walked out of ten counties.
A soft rustling sound came from the dense forest on the mountain road in the distance. The birds hiding in the forest seemed to be frightened and flew away. A stone the size of a fist flew towards Dahei.
The little sparrow quickly broke away from Ye Chao's hand as if it had found some interesting toy, and flew above the fast-moving stones like lightning. Its small and sharp claws pierced between the stones, and then flew with the stones.
It's on Dahei's head.
It raised its head and shouted proudly at Ye Chao. It pointed its wings in the direction where the rocks had previously flown.
"No need, there is no murderous intent in it, and that person has already left, and..."
Before Ye Chao finished speaking, he took the stone at the little sparrow's feet in his hand and took out a piece of paper from the small gap in the middle.
"Hey, you saw it, he is here to deliver a message."
Opening the note, it contained only a very brief sentence: To the west of the Youzhang Grassland, there was a ten-horse cart, and a ravine appeared when the cart passed by.
Ye Chao crumpled the note into pieces, and there was a look of expectation in his eyes.

Washan Mountain is not a single mountain, but is connected by several strange-shaped mountains. Although it has entered early autumn, the climate of the Song Dynasty is only slightly lower than that in summer because it is located in the southern part of the country.
Some, so the green hills covered with trees are still lush, and there are still cicadas and frogs chirping in the deep mountains and secluded waters.
The main festival day of the Bon Festival has not yet arrived, but there are already too many people gathered under the tile mountain, such as the disciples of Jiange in white, the Xiling cultivators in divine robes, and the armor of the Tang Dynasty military.
Scholars, there are also monks in the White Pagoda Temple of Yuelun Kingdom who don’t like to bathe.
A jet-black carriage came slowly from the mountain road at the northern foot of Washan Mountain. The jet-black carriage looked like the skin of some strange beast, with very conspicuous brand-new arrow marks on it. The wheels rolled on the gravel-paved mountain road.
It's like there are thousands of troops galloping.
The driver of the car was a young man, wearing a green shirt from the Tang Academy and carrying a long and narrow plain knife. His eyebrows were extremely handsome, but his brows seemed to be used to deep frowns, resulting in several layers of wrinkles between the eyebrows that were not easy to disappear.
Those cultivators who were praising Master Qishan's merits at the foot of Mount Wa couldn't help but look at the carriage. The next moment, their eyes showed unconcealable surprise.
Those who can come to Washan to participate in the Bon Festival are all well-established figures in the spiritual world. It is precisely because of this that they know the origin of the car.
The car of Master Yanse at the South Gate of Haotian Road, but the problem is that Master Yanse emerged as early as two years ago, so the driver can only be Mr. Fourteenth of the academy. Considering the recent rumors about Mr. Fourteenth, the car
The one above should be the daughter of light.
Ning Que is the fourteenth gentleman of the academy, and Sangsang is the daughter of light personally selected by the great priest of light who has broken through the five realms.
Such an identity can cause controversy no matter where it is. Even when Ning Que pushed the car and entered the wooden door, many monks in Xiling lowered their heads and saluted.
In the past, Ning Que would have smiled and greeted them with interest, but it was different now, so he just glanced at the crowd coldly, then leaned down and carried Sangsang on his back to the ancient temple leading to the top of the mountain.
mountain road.
Those who stopped at the foot of the mountain did not continue the previous conversation, but followed the two men.
Because Washan is not easy to get into, they wanted to see how Mr. Fourteen from the academy would get into Washan.

On a high mountain in the Song Dynasty, Jun Mo sat dignifiedly on a piece of bluestone. After taking a sip of hot tea handed to him by the book boy, he looked up at the strange green mountains outside the mountain.
"Mr. Second, someone just sent news that Mr. Twelve has just entered the territory of Song Dynasty. Is this too late?"
Jun Mo looked at the little book boy's frowning handsome eyebrows and smiled gently, and said, "It only takes a moment for him to want to come. There's no rush."
The little book boy was still puzzled, so he asked again: "But Mr. Second, we have been in Song Dynasty for four months, and we have been wandering in these mountains and rivers all day long, and you must have been sitting on this bluestone for half a month, right?"
?”
Jun Mo said: "Characters such as Liansheng and Wei Guangming were all born in the Song Dynasty. Mountains and rivers are places where spiritual beauty is cultivated. However, there are no big rivers and lakes in the Song Dynasty, so we can only come to the mountains."
The little book boy said: "According to what you just said, there is no need to rush. There are still many famous mountains in the Song Dynasty. We have time to visit other mountains."
Jun Mo said: "After seeing so many mountains, I feel that they are far behind those in Tang Dynasty, so I stopped visiting."
"But why have you been sitting here for so many days?" the little book boy asked, pointing to the bluestone.
Jun Mo pointed to the ancient temples in the hills in the distance and said, "Because this is the closest to Lanke Temple, and because you are still young, you should play less with Tang Xiaotang in the future."
(The second half of the chapter is a bit watery, but it’s a bit awkward and abrupt to jump into the plot directly, so...hehehe)
