Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]

Cao Shuo has been weak since he was a child. Although he can run and jump now, and looks like an ordinary boy on the surface, his foundation is still weak.It was the first time he went outside to endure hardships, and it was because Mrs. Ding was worried.So she, who has always been strict in family management, made an extravagance this time. In the convoy, there were not only comprehensive medicinal materials, cool silk, but also two large boxes of fresh fruits and vegetables, which were frozen and covered with thick straw. Covered with tarpaulin for heat insulation.

Cao Pi and Sun Quan lay comfortably in the pile of straw, with cool air coming from their sides, and occasionally the scent of flowers and fruits, they were so comfortable that they almost fell asleep.And they really fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was already past lunch time.Cao Pi rubbed his "cuckoo" stomach and turned over on the haystack. "Hungry," he muttered.

Sun Quan was bigger than him, and he was not as comfortable as he was in the straw pile. At this time, he just scratched his eyes twice and said in a sullen voice, "How about going to steal some from the box?"

"That's for my second brother." Cao Pi struggled.

Sun Quan rolled his eyes: "But you are hungry, where can I find you something to eat? You will be found when you get off the bus."

Cao Pi blocked him with three words: "I'm anxious."

"I..." Sun Quan almost cursed, "I..."

The little devil showed an innocent smile: "I don't want to pee in the car either."

Sun Quan lowered his voice: "Cao Api, you are my ancestor." Then he resigned himself to moving a few steps forward, reached the edge of the straw pile, and secretly lifted a corner of the tarpaulin.

The wheels kept rolling, and the gray-black gravel and crushed sand ground receded at a constant speed, accompanied by the shadows of street trees one after another.Occasionally, when you go to a place without trees, you can see the vast fields and villages in the distance, a hopeful green, even under the scorching sun.Both sides of the new road are populated with familiar land, compared with the Chidiqianli a few years ago, it seems like the sea has changed.

"The car is moving, how do you get off?" Sun Quan said to himself, "It's reasonable, it's you who said you were going to run out. I really can't believe what a child says." No matter how precocious Cao Pi was, he couldn't plan to leave home. It's such a big deal to leave.

"Go and listen, is there any sound from behind?" Suddenly, the guard's voice sounded, and Sun Quan was so frightened that he hurriedly put down the tarpaulin and went back into the haystack.

The sound of the servant's hooves was getting closer, and the two children covered each other's mouths and lay beside the ice, like two shivering little mice.At least three horses circled the car they were in twice, "Tuk Tuk", "Tuk Tuk Tuk", the crisp sound of the impact of the horseshoes on the hard road was so clear, it seemed to hit the heart through the eardrums .

The eyes of the bear children are wide open in the dark.This heart-pounding feeling reaches its peak when the light suddenly brightens.

Someone lifted the tarp!

"Is there anything unusual?" The man's voice was just above his head.

Then there was the sound of pounding straw. "It seems the straw is messed up."

"The straw is already messy, but when you stir it, it becomes even more messy."

Before Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief, he saw a long knife with its sheath coming down from top to bottom, and almost wiped his nose and plunged into the haystack. The word "Help" popped into my throat in an instant.How could he have forgotten that there are many ruthless characters among the guards of the Cao family.If he stabbed his body this time, even an unsheathed knife could smash the child's ribs.

"Brush!" It was the second time, and this time the scabbard fell under Sun Quan's armpit.Life and face, it must be life is more important!Sun Jiaerlang made a decision almost immediately, and was about to get up when he heard the male voice outside shouting:

"You're crazy! This is a birthday gift for the second son, what if it's broken?"

"...It's because the subordinates didn't think carefully."

"Hurry up, hurry up. Since there is no problem, go to the next car."

The sound of the heavy cavalry's horseshoes gradually faded away, and Sun Quan lay in the darkness for a long time unable to regain his senses.When he reacted, he wiped his forehead, good guy, his head is full of sweat.

Cao Pi squirmed and leaned against the ice. "Then shall we get out of the car?"

While wiping his sweaty hands on the straw, Sun Quan replied, "If you bear with it, the second station of Xinji will be 3 miles away, and the convoy must be repaired."

"Ah Quan, do you know how to read milestones?"

Sun Quan pinched Cao Pi's small face: "My name is Brother Quan. I am a man who has finished studying "Traffic Theory" in Liaodong."

Cao Pi refused: "Didn't you only learn shipbuilding?"

"The ship's road leads to the same goal. It is essentially a physical way to spread materials, population, and culture." Sun Quan stick read.

This sentence surpassed Cao Wusui's comprehension ability, so he obediently shut up.

More than half an hour passed, and the wheels that had been spinning continuously since the morning finally stopped with a "creak".Under the cover of Sun Quan, Cao Pi, who was already overly hungry, tiptoed off the carriage covered with haystacks.Taking advantage of the time when the guards were feeding the horses, the two cubs ran into the hut at the back of the station.

The post station is newly built, and even the dry toilets are much better than the cesspit that has been used in rural areas for decades.There is also a sink for washing hands after going out, which can make the two young masters breathe a sigh of relief.

"Ah Quan, look, it's a cornfield." Cao Pi said suddenly.

Sun Quan looked up, isn't it? Around the backyard of the post station, there are two acres of corn planted. At this time, the corn is growing, and it is tender and green. You can eat it raw when you peel off the leaves.Just at this time, someone came towards the toilet, and the two little children looked at each other, and they got into the corn field at the same time.

When the sun deflected another angle, Cao Pi threw down the fifth clean green corn cob and burped.The ground is already a mess, straw, weeds and corn leaves are mixed together, so pitiful.Even the ten-year-old Sun Quan couldn't pick the corn on the top of the plant, so they used the method of crushing the corn stalk with their body weight, and then violently dismembering the corpse.But this kind of pressure often hurts more than just one plant.In the end, what was eaten into the mouth was not so bad.

Sun Quan scratched his head: "It seems that I have to pay copper coins, have you brought any money?"

Cao Pi looked confused: "...No. This is the cornfield of the post station. Isn't the post station my family's?"

"You have to pay," Sun Quan said. "Public transportation is not a family property."

The two looked at each other in blank dismay, and ran out on a whim, who would bring money?

Cao Pi took off the jade pendant around his neck: "Is this successful?"

"You are such a noble son. Just this jade is enough to buy fifty carts of corn." Sun Quan rolled his eyes.

So the two took off all the ornaments on their bodies, and put them on the ground in bits and pieces, including two paintbrushes.

"Why do you still bring a pen?" Sun Quan stretched out his hand to grab the two things with the wrong style, "This is the cheapest."

"Nonsense! This, this, this is the painting brush from Mrs. Yan's shop, which is worth a hundred gold. Why don't you use this little golden peach."

"All right. Hey, what is this? Colorful pebbles?"

Cao Pi followed Sun Quan's gaze, and saw a beautiful dark blue flat round stone dotted with purple and deep red patterns that looked like flames. . "My second uncle gave this to me." Cao Pi reluctantly said, "It's probably a stone, but I haven't seen a more beautiful stone than it."

Sun Quan hammered Cao Xiaopi's head: "I can only choose the cheapest thing at this time."

"……OK then."

So Cao Pi gave up his "pebble", for which he was ridiculed by Cao Shuo for a whole year.Of course, this is something for later.

Back to the present, Cao Pi and Sun Quan are facing the biggest crisis since they fled.

The convoy is gone!

Just as they were destroying the corn and picking out the price, the convoy transporting Cao Shuo's birthday gift had already left Xinji No. 2 station.

The sun is setting, and the sky is full of sunset.The two children stood on the clean road and looked blankly into the distance.They couldn't even tell where they came from, and where they would lead to where Cao Shuo was.Sun Quan was old, so Cao Pi looked at Sun Quan.The young Sun Zhongmou felt a heavy burden suddenly on his shoulders: "In short, let's find a place to sleep first."
