and travel

Chapter 005

Jiang Daoyang went to the mountain outside the city, and there was a ruined temple on the mountain.The temple door was closed tightly, and no one responded after knocking for a long time.

"Old man, I brought you good wine, I'll leave if you don't open the door!"

— creak —

Sure enough, the door opened, and there was an old man dressed in rags, with disheveled hair.He opened the door, poked his head out and said, "Bring the wine."

Jiang Daoyang handed the wine to him, and the old man happily went to pick it up.Unexpectedly, the wine in his hand was snatched away by Jiang, so that he only had time to smell the fragrance.

The old man's name is Huo Jingpeng, and he is Lianzi's master.

"Ugh?"

Jiang Daoyang: "Come with me."

Huo Lianpeng closed the door suddenly, seemingly losing his temper.He said angrily like a child: "No, no one usually thinks of my old man, come to me whenever there is something."

"Hmph, don't think that a bottle of wine can buy me off."

Jiang Daoyang deliberately opened the bottle cap and said, "Really don't want it?"

"No." Old man Huo stuck to the bottom line.

"Two wine cellars plus a winery."

the door suddenly opened

Huo Jingpeng walked ahead, looking even more anxious than Jiang Daoyang.

"..."

His old pace was steady, and he returned to the bank one step ahead of Jiang Daoyang.

Jiang Daoyang saw such a scene as soon as he went back.Huo Lianpeng twisted Lianzi's ears and carried him into the yard, cursing: "You boy, you haven't seen your master once in hundreds of years? You are getting more and more courageous, are you getting fat?"

Huo Jingpeng scolded and kicked at the same time, Wu Jiu couldn't stand it any longer and went up to stop him.However, the old man was extremely dissatisfied, and he walked into the room with staring eyes, and sat alone drinking tea angrily.This is the end of a farce.

Wu Jiu rubbed Lianzi's ears, hugging her in her arms to coax her.

Jiang Daoyang walked into the house and asked him to go to the back room to see a doctor.

"Don't go."

Jiang Daoyang gritted his teeth and said, "Add two more wine cellars."

Huo Jingpeng then entered the back room, looked at Luo Chuan who was sleeping and said, "This poison is not light!"

"I have to take a closer look." He came to the bed, and before he touched anyone, Luo Chuan grabbed his wrist.

"Luo Chuan, I'm here to detoxify you."

Under Jiang Daoyang's explanation, Luo Chuan slowly let go of his hand and asked the old man to feel his pulse.

Just like Lianzi, his brows were also frowning.

"Is it serious?"

"Not at all."

Jiang Daoyang breathed a sigh of relief.

"The poison is not serious, it will only make people lose their five senses slowly, and then die from heart failure."

Is this serious?I don't know how their drug-learned brains grow?

"Can you untie it?"

Huo Jingpeng said truthfully: "I can't solve it, I can only postpone it."

Jiang Daoyang: "Is there no other way?" When he said this, Jiang Daoyang's heart was in his throat.

"This poison is very old. It is called Xuedixiang. It was made by a very ancient race - the Wu Clan. However, the Wu Clan is gone, and the only remaining clansmen have fled to a dungeon with their relatives. To find The antidote is to go to the underground city that never sleeps, where is the city that never sleeps? No one knows, and it may not even exist at all.”

Jiang Daoyang looked at Luo Chuan, just brought this person back, is he going to lose again?

Huo Jingpeng gave Luo Chuan two bottles of medicine, a total of twelve pills, one pill in the middle of every month, if there is no antidote after a year.

Then there is only death.

After doing this, he left and disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Daoyang stayed with Luochuan all night

Luo Chuan looked at him and said, "You don't have to do this. My death is considered atonement." He owed too many life debts, including innocent officials, thousands of Yulin soldiers who followed him, and innocent people... .... Such a death can also repay a small part of the debt.

"I'll accompany you to find the antidote, you won't die."

"Forget it, go find a place that might not exist?" Luo Chuan lay on the bed, half mockingly said: "I don't have much time left, I want to go out for a walk while I can still see it."

According to Huo Jingpeng, he will gradually lose his five senses and become a waste.Martial arts will also be dissipated, and he has been wandering on the edge of hell all these years.It has been a long time since I have seen the beauty of the mortal world and the grandeur of the world.

Jiang Daoyang got up from the ground and hugged the person lying on the bed.The movements are gentle, as if holding a fragile porcelain doll.

"I go with you."

Luo Chuan didn't push him away this time, and fell asleep in Jiang Daoyang's arms.

The next day

When Luo Chuan woke up, the people around him had disappeared.wrong!He is a killer himself, so he should always be vigilant. When Jiang Daoyang got up, he had no reason not to notice.

There was always a faint fragrance in the air, Luo Chuan lifted the pillow to look, and sprinkled a handful of herbs under the pillow.

It happened that Jiang Daoyang entered the room, saw something under the pillow, and said with a smile, "It's soothing. I saw that you couldn't sleep well, so I asked Lianzi to make some herbs."

"En." Luo Chuan nodded slightly.

The carriage was ready outside, and Jiang Daoyang specially came to wake him up.

In the morning, the breeze is gentle and the sun is warm.

It's a good time to go.

Outside the bank is a carriage, which is not as luxurious as the usual carriage of Jiang Da merchants.It's extremely ordinary, according to what Jiang Daoyang said, who knows if someone will chase him down, it's not easy to attract people's attention.

"Don't look at the crudeness of this carriage, but there is a lot of space inside."

Jiang Daoyang slightly twisted the crossbar in front of the car.A sharp cone popped out of the wheel.

"How is it?" He asked for credit

Luo Chuan: "..." Who is this trying to stab to death?

"Oh, don't go! Go in and have a look!"

Pulling Luo Chuan and sitting in, the interior of the carriage is warm and comfortable.There is also a small table with a set of purple sand tea sets on it, and the brewed tea emits a faint fragrance.

"We'll be leaving in a while, you sit down first, I'm going to pack my luggage."

Jiang Daoyang got out of the car in a hurry, ran around in the courtyard, and one piece of luggage was loaded into the carriage.The space behind the car, the roof is tied up to the full.

Luo Chuan thought to himself: Is this called being unobtrusive?

"Lord Luo, do you think I'm fully prepared?" Jiang Daoyang smiled as the car window was lifted, showing off his prowess.

"Complete……"

Jiang Daoyang also got into the carriage and looked at him with a smile.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"Luo Chuan, why are you so pretty?"

"...", Luo Chuan rolled his eyes at him: "When are we going to leave?"

Jiang Daoyang replied: "Wait a little longer, the coachman hasn't come yet?"

"The coachman?"

"Yeah, you don't think I'm driving, do you?"

Luo Chuan asked back: "Isn't it?"

"I won't." Jiang Daoyang shrugged, and said again: "Don't worry, this driver is very reliable."

As soon as Jiang Daoyang finished speaking, a big man opened the car window and said, "Master Jiang, I'm late."

The big man is thick, with thick lips, beards, big eyes, and looks very energetic.

"It's not too late, Uncle Ma, let's go!"

Uncle Ma, he is the best coachman in the south of the Yangtze River. He has good driving skills and sufficient experience. No matter what the road conditions are, he can't go without him.All the caravans in the south of the Yangtze River were vying for him to be the coachman, and Jiang Daoyang spent a lot of money to hire him.

"Okay, let's go."

--hiss--

The horse in front of the car took a step

This Uncle Ma was indeed a good driver, and Luo Chuan, who was sitting in the car, could not feel the shaking at all.All the way smooth and steady, comfortable.

The whip in Uncle Ma's hand waved again and again, he turned his head and said to the two people in the carriage: "Masters, which direction are we going?"

Luo Chuan replied first: "Let's go to Suzhou!"

"Suzhou? Good."

Seeing that his calculations were about to be disrupted, Jiang Daoyang immediately said, "Suzhou? What's the difference between it and Wanqin? They're both towns in the south of the Yangtze River. What's there to do?"

Come to think of it, the first time the two met was in Wanqin.Luo Chuan also stayed in Wanqin for a long time, seeing all the sights, and going to those Jiangnan water towns is really nothing to see.

Lao Ma couldn't make up his mind: "Where does Master Jiang want to go?"

"I heard that there is a Taoyuan Village not far to the west. The folk customs are simple and honest. It seems that there will be a sacrificial activity in the past few days. I heard from some friends that it is a good place to visit."

Lao Ma of Taoyuan Village mentioned by Jiang Daoyangkou is also very familiar, it is indeed a beautiful village.

Jiang Daoyang looked at Luo Chuan and said, "Do you want to go?"

"I'm free." He didn't know these towns well, and the Suzhou he mentioned just now was just a casual mention.

Lao Ma: "Come on, then let's go to Taoyuan Village."

Taoyuan Village is to the west of Wanqin, while Huo Jingpeng's underground city that never sleeps is in the southwest.The two can be regarded as the same direction. Jiang Daoyang said that he was going to accompany Luo Chuan to take a look around, but in fact, he secretly planned to take him to find the city that never sleeps.

Luo Chuan didn't care about his own life or death, but he did.
