Although the carriage was overcrowded, I was a servant of the Zhao family and had nothing but a few changes of clothes. It was more suitable to sit in the carriage. Compared with other courtyard servants, the servants supported each other and walked with the convoy.

So far, I am much happier

The moon is on the treetops, and hundreds of birds are returning to the forest. From time to time, the sound of carriage wheels can be heard on the driveway, but no one is talking. It turns out that as early as the sun returns to the west, the entire convoy has been cared for by the knights, and no sound is allowed at night.

Order, according to what the knights said, the convoy is going to the so-called Yushan City, which is located at the foot of Jade Mountain. It can be said that the mountains are high and the city is dangerous. There are bloodthirsty beasts on the road from time to time. What is more important now is that the army of the Cavalry Kingdom may chase the convoy at any time. If it is night

Following the sound and ambushing the convoy would be extremely dangerous.

The long night, the cool autumn wind, the cold moon and silver frost, and the meowing of old cats at night can be heard from time to time on the winding path, adding to the spooky atmosphere.

The team is still moving forward step by step. Although the entire team is exhausted, when they think of the terrifying lightning tactics of the Baili Kuaiqiu of the Riding Kingdom, the entire team can only grit their teeth and be energetic.

Go forward

This relatively civilian high-speed driving situation persisted until late at night, and finally some people began to fall behind. At first, one or two people, and later whole groups of people could not keep up with the speed of the carriage.

The riders of the escort reported the matter to Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao discussed it with his two brothers and both felt that if this continues, the entire convoy will be scattered. Even if there are some capable people who can go on the road, after all,

It is the end of a strong crossbow. If a strong enemy pursues you, you will be unable to fight back.

So Mr. Zhao decisively ordered the convoy to slow down, gather the manpower, and personally, accompanied by the knight guards, went to a site found by the forward sentry that was suitable for camping.

I saw that it was a hillside backed by a cliff with huge boulders on both sides. The cliff behind it was extremely steep and impossible to climb by humans. Moreover, the cliff was in the shape of an inverted cone. Even if there were soldiers ambushing on the top of the cliff, throwing rolling stones, etc.

It will never hurt the people under the cliff, and there are very steep boulder slopes on both sides of the slope, just like a city wall. There are only two ways to leave on the hillside, and one is the main road you came from.

, one is a winding mountain path next to the cliff.

After reading all this, Mr. Zhao couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. The terrain here is really dangerous. If there is one man blocking the road, ten thousand people can't move.

Mr. Zhao ordered a brother of his family to go back with a knight, asking him to find the convoy as soon as possible and guide the convoy here to rest.

Mr. Zhao squinted his eyes slightly, looked at the winding mountain road in the distance, and muttered something silently.

After a while, the first group of people in the convoy drove up the hillside, and then the second wave and the third wave gradually moved closer to the hillside.

Mr. Zhao kept ordering people to stand guard and patrol, and ordered the approaching convoys and carriages to be lined up in a ring to block the intersection to prevent cavalry from making a surprise attack. He also arranged for his riders to continuously expand the scope of the sentinel inspection.

Scout the enemy

The Asheng family's carriage was the third batch to drive up the hillside. As soon as it reached the uphill, it was immediately arranged to distribute water and food to the team. Since the Zhao family was fully prepared when they left, the food on the car was enough for more than 500 people in the house.

It lasted for three years, and the dried meat and alcoholic beverages brought in the car were enough for the team to last for half a month.

Therefore, the Asheng family was ordered not to light a fire for cooking. They distributed dried meat and wine to everyone, and then asked everyone to lie down and rest.

After Ah Sheng helped his father and mother distribute the wine and meat jerky to everyone, he also took the wine and meat jerky he was assigned to find a rock shelter from the wind and gathered with his parents to eat.

After eating some slightly hard but delicious dried meat, Ah Sheng snuggled next to his mother, listened to his parents quietly chatting about homely gossip, looked at their kind smiles, and gradually fell asleep happily, still dreaming.

I dreamed that my family was living happily in the future Jade City, and my family was assigned a big house to live in. My father continued to cook delicious food for Mr. Zhao, and my mother helped wash the vegetables, and she was beside my father again.

Help out and sometimes play with the young master. Although he is often bullied by the young master as before, the family still lives a wonderful life.

There were only about 300 people coming up in the convoy plus nearly a hundred knights, and the remaining 200 people were servants. Since those servants came on foot, it was difficult to walk down the rugged mountain road for dozens of miles, and it was sparse until dawn.

Only then did they gradually reach the hillside

As the day gradually rose, people in the motorcade gradually started talking quietly, and many people who had rested gathered together to chat.

Ah Sheng was young and his physical strength recovered relatively quickly. In addition, he was riding in a carriage along the way, so he didn't get far enough, so he woke up early in the morning and looked around curiously.

The vast and endless mountains are endless, and dozens of flocks of birds are chasing and chirping in the air. In comparison, the hillside seems quiet and peaceful.

Ah Sheng took a sip of the sweet water and ate the leftover dried meat from last night. He felt the gentle mountain breeze with the scent of wild grass and felt very enjoyable.

As the rising sun gradually hit the hillside, Mr. Zhao walked out of the big tent in the middle of the camp. He was thirty years old, with a short beard, eyebrows like swords, and an extraordinary appearance.

Immediately after Mr. Zhao, another person came out, and Ah Sheng recognized it at a glance as the third lady of the Zhao family. Although the third lady took off the exquisite brocade she usually wore, and changed into plain clothes and breeches, her softness showed even more heroic appearance.

Although Sheng didn't understand emotions yet, after seeing the third lady, his heart couldn't help but beat wildly, and his face felt like it was on fire. Fortunately, he was small, and no one would notice such a little one among the stones.

Wimpy boy hazy state of mind

The second lady of the Zhao family came out immediately. The second lady changed from her usual fragrant clothes and bright makeup. She wore an extremely tight-fitting blue short jacket and trousers, showing her exquisite and proud appearance. She had plain hair in a high bun and smooth eyebrows.

, but she has a good appearance, but Ah Sheng seemed to feel that when the second lady looked at the third lady, there seemed to be a look of disgust and resentment in her eyes, but in the blink of an eye, the second lady was chatting cordially and enthusiastically with the third lady, as if

Sisters generally make Ah Sheng feel confused.

The last person to come out was the eldest lady. The eldest lady was as dignified and virtuous as usual, and her eyebrows showed the beauty of kindness and love from time to time.

Ah Sheng's favorite person in the Zhao family is the eldest lady, because this lady is recognized as the kindest and most kind-hearted person in the family. Ah Sheng still remembers that when he was playing with the young master when he was a child, the young master was acting mischievously and holding a wooden stick.

When Mr. Zhao became furious after slapping his beloved goldfish to death, the young master quickly blamed the trouble on Ah Sheng. Master Zhao was so angry that he wanted to kill Ah Sheng. Thanks to the eldest lady, he tried his best to persuade Ah Sheng.

Only then did A Sheng escape the disaster. Later, when he was locked in a small dark room to reflect, it was the lady who sent the steamed buns late at night. Whenever Asheng thought of this scene, he could never forget the picture that the lady showed in the dark room.

A kind, beautiful, and loving face. Whenever Asheng thinks of this face, he always feels that everything in this world is beautiful.

Now that he saw the eldest lady again, Ah Sheng felt unselfconsciously happy and smiled silly at the eldest lady.
