Chapter 173: A Corner of the World (2) Overnight

"clatter."

"clatter."

"clatter."

Under the night, the surroundings were pitch black, and the straight and spacious Xuanyuan Road was faintly pale under the faint moonlight.

The two black divine horses seemed to be ghosts blending into the night. The sound of hooves hit the ground and they were already carrying the silent riding figures running dozens of meters away.

Next to the road in the distance, a huge pavilion could be seen vaguely squatting there quietly, almost blending with the black jungle behind it.

"Senior brother, let's spend the night here tonight."

"All right."

The two riders slowly slowed down and dismounted from the horse. Li Yingwu and Fang You brothers looked at the long pavilion on the side of the road again.

Xuanyuan Post has a unified regulation. On the road of Xuanyuan Post, there is a node every 500 kilometers. It is not only for the sake of the rider's renovation, but more importantly, it is to transfer to the mount. It is also necessary to ride a bird at a distance, and you can transfer to two or three nodes at a time.

The divine horse has to be transferred once every node, which not only allows the rider to enjoy the fastest sprinting speed of the divine horse after raising energy, but more importantly, this method of sacrificing power can ensure that each divine horse has a longer "service" life, and will not use one in two or three years.

Both the brothers and brothers have broad knowledge, but this is the first time they have gone on a long journey. They have not experienced the pain of traveling far away. Sitting on the divine horse and watching the scenery along the way, their excitement is overflowing with their chests, and they are inevitably a little overexcited.

Departing from Xuanyuanyi, Shendu, we arrived at the next node of Xuanyuanyi in the afternoon. They did not check in and repaired, and they changed into a new divine horse and continued to run. So they missed the accommodation and now they can only make do with it in the wild.

Fortunately, Xuanyuanyi considers the needs of night travelers, there will be some simple renovation places built according to local conditions every few dozen kilometers along the way.

Just like the simple pavilion they saw, it was built with a column of 100 thick logs five or six meters long, and a simple building thatched along Xuanyuan Road was thirty or forty meters long and more than ten meters in length. It was covered with hand-woven rainproof thatch, and was empty below, and was connected to form a whole simple building.

The two of them led the divine horse into the pavilion. There was a row of horse-tie stakes next to them. After they tied the divine horse, they looked around curiously. Because they all heard that they had never actually done it, they were inevitably a little unfamiliar and made it look like an adventure.

"Senior Brother, here." Fang You couldn't help but say excitedly.

The two brothers walked to the middle and saw a thick iron plate covered with a pull ring on the iron plate.

"Bang--"

Fang You had already pulled the iron plate away first, and a slanted downward step appeared in front of the two.

On the first floor of the steps, there are a few torches, flints and other objects.

The two of them lit a torch, and Fang You jumped down first, and couldn't hide his curiosity in his words: "I'll go down and take a look first."

Li Yingwu also walked down the steps with a torch.

It is a simple basement that is more than ten meters long, five or six meters wide, and about two meters high.

In the middle of the basement is a huge high-legged iron cabinet.

His junior brother Fang You stood in front of the iron cabinet and was kicking a mouse-catching cage under his feet. A big jumping rat was locked inside. He kicked him and squeaked inside the cage.

Li Yingwu was really amused and crying. Unexpectedly, his junior brother, who looked very well-behaved on weekdays, left the teacher and parents, and became like this, and his curiosity was too strong.

"Stop playing with rats." He urged.

The iron cabinet was not locked, and it opened with a little force. It was divided into several layers, with small bags of large and small bags.

Each has labels, "horse material", "poultry material", "human material", and "deworming powder".

Fang You picked up two large bags of horse materials and two small bags of human materials, and said angrily: "This person who writes the label is too perfunctory."

Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with the term "personality".

Li Yingwu smiled and refused to respond to him. He took pots, bowls, brackets and other utensils from the bottom of the iron cabinet and followed him out of the basement.

When he returned to the ground, he built a simple bracket, went to the water tank behind to get water and washed the pots and bowls again, and the junior brother went to the basement to bring a pile of dry firewood.

When he lit the fire and the water in the pot was squeaking, his junior brother had already put horse materials on the two divine horses and added clean water to the trough.

Then he sprinkled a circle of deworming powder around the divine horse and stayed overnight in this wilderness, with snakes, insects, rats and ants being the biggest enemies.

After getting everything done, Fang You clapped his hands and walked over to sit next to him, and then went to see the "personal information" like a child.

Then, he said with disappointment: "I thought I would win the prize."

He held two large cakes, a dried bread, a meat, vegetables, etc. in his hand and pressed dried cakes. This is everything in the material bag.

After the water boiled, Li Yingwu threw two meat and vegetable mix cakes into the pot, stirred them with a spoon for a few times, and soon turned into a pot of thick soup, which exuded a strong fragrance with the heat.

He was about to carry a spoon and put it into the two bowls. Fang You suddenly said, "Senior brother, I heard that throwing the noodles in together is even better."

Li Yingwu glanced at him helplessly and thought to himself, who did you hear?

Thinking about the weird thing about the thick batter and meat and vegetables, he kept filling his bowl with thick soup, and then said, "You can do it yourself."

He took a bite of the dough, which was too dry, too rough, and was boring. It spread into powder in two or three times in his mouth, and the mouth was full of diamonds, and the taste was too bad.

If you take another sip of the soup, it is not delicious. I can only say that in such a wilderness, you should be content with a warm sip of salty and odorful hot soup.

Then, he saw his junior brother squatting opposite, with a satisfied expression on his face, and was holding a large bowl of unknown thick objects and drinking vigorously. He couldn't help but wonder: "Is this really better?"

After he barely ate half a cake and drank half a bowl of soup, he felt that he would be able tonight. He went to Xuanyuanyi tomorrow to have some formal food. When he saw his junior brother sticking out his tongue and licking the last bit of paste at the bottom of the bowl, he said, "What they said is true. The people in Xuanyuanyi are all profiteers. When we calculate the money, they are counting two. When we prepare the things for us, they only have half a serving. No, I want to get another one!"

As he said that, he stood up and headed towards the basement, then turned around and asked, "Senior Brother, do you still want it?"

Senior Brother Li Yingwu shook his head speechlessly, but he decided to believe his judgment and not be confused by his junior brother's behavior.

Everything they have here is naturally not free. Whether it is horse materials or human materials, even insect repellent powder, firewood money, and night stay money, when they transfer to the next Xuanyuan Post node tomorrow, people will calculate it clearly.

Whenever you reach a node and transfer to a new divine horse, you must pay the fee for the previous stop. This is the rule.

Every time you collect, it contains information such as departure time and location. Whether you have stayed overnight or not, everyone is clear. Even if you are really staying overnight in the wilderness and self-reliance, people will have to calculate money. This is also the rule.

After finishing everything, Li Yingwu sat cross-legged on a wooden pillar and said to his junior brother: "Go to rest quickly. You are so excited now. You should be suffering and tired if you have to travel for a long time tomorrow."

Everything is quiet, only the sound of insects coming from the jungle in the distance adds silence.

Although the night wind is a little cool, both of them have great martial arts cultivation, and it may be a bit difficult to fight against powerful enemies, but it is enough to keep warm and strengthen your body.

"Cry"

"Cry"

"Cry"

At this moment, with the night wind, several distant bird songs came from the distant air, and they were approaching quickly.

At first, the two brothers didn't care, and soon woke up in surprise.

"Boss, there is a fire over there, it seems to be a pavilion. Let's go and take a break and set off tomorrow morning!"

A rough voice came from the sky.

Then, as the sound of the giant bird flapping its wings approached.

Bang--

Bang--

Bang--

Just like it rained, more than a dozen people fell from the sky on the Xuanyuan Road beside the pavilion, making the ground thump.

Then, more than a dozen giant birds fell to the ground, and three or four gentle-looking people rode on the birds and slugged down slowly.

And the dozen people who landed first could not wait to rush into the pavilion.

Some people carry giant axes, some people carry big swords, some people have various dart hidden weapons inserted in their belts, and everyone has murderous weapons...

Some people have several scars on their faces, new marks pressing on old marks, some lack ears, some lack eyes, some lack arms, and everyone has a fierce look on their faces...

They are rough, fierce, and full of energy in the mountains and forests, like untamed beasts who want to eat people when they open their mouths.

"Bandits!" Almost without thinking, Fang You met them with a person, his hair stood up all over his body, and he jumped up and stood with his senior brother.
