Chapter 211: All the way to the west

211 all the way to the west

The night is dark and the wind is high, and the hot heart of the person who blows in the cool breeze at night is much more refreshing.

At the east gate of Yuanzhou City, the heavy city gate was wide open, and a well-dressed young man, ten elite armor soldiers, and a carriage behind him stopped when he left the city gate.

"Dingfang, these two letters, one for my father and one for Li Tie of Lantian Bailu, you take it." The boy took out two fire-painted letters from his bosom and handed them to the sturdy general at the head.

"Your Highness, rest assured, Lie will not fail in his mission. Don't send it, go back, I wish Your Highness a smooth journey. The general took the letter and said.

It turned out that these two people were Li Pojun and Su Dingfang, who wanted to return to Chang'an.

"Okay, let's go, stay safe all the way." After that, Li Pojun beat his horse back.

Su Dingfang took a deep look at the small figure, shouted "go", hit the horse and galloped, and ten elites followed behind, guarding the carriage in the middle.

When I returned to the Thorn Mansion, I found a jar of wine from Wang Xiaorong's cellar, which was a rare thing when food was scarce, especially in this year of disaster.

He didn't have to talk to Hanwa, he touched the bowl and drank, and he was carried down by the maid to wash and sleep.

As soon as the morning dawned, knocked on his drowsy head, Li Pojun got up, washed up, changed into clean clothes, and looked at it again, Hanwa's cowardly baby was still snoring and falling asleep, and kicked him awake, but this was the first time he woke up drunk, and he had a headache, and it took him a long time to wake up.

After hastily having breakfast, I got on the horse and went straight to Zhao's house, which is also a good thing, I have been riding a lot of horses recently, and my riding skills are getting better and better, and I don't know if there are calluses or what's wrong between my legs, and it doesn't hurt so much.

When he entered the Zhao family, there was a lot of commotion inside, but Zhu Cheng was like a Zhao family housekeeper who was instructing a few subordinates to do things, and the arrangement was not leaky.

Everyone saluted, and under the auspices of an old man who knew how to be polite, the funeral was done.

Walking on the street out of the city, several subordinates opened the way and scattered paper money, and Li Pojun was even in front of the spirit.

Wu Yanheng, Liu Derang and other Yuanzhou officials are also with the funeral in linen, no way, if it is a weekday, Zhao Yan is also a colleague, they only need to worship in front of the spirit for this kind of funeral, there is no need for such a funeral, but this Royal Highness is also too kind, and actually personally helped the spirit, but they were frightened, and they were not easy to advise, and Zhao Yan was also terrified and kept asking for resignation, but Li Pojun grew up under the red flag, respected the old man, especially such a poor old man, The old man who was indirectly killed by Wang Xiaorong's uncle and nephew was really uncomfortable in his heart, and he did his best to give his nephew a gift, but it was nothing to send the last ride.

It's just that he came to the funeral for an old man with no rank and no lord, but it was a very great kindness, didn't he see Zhao Yan's brothers and sisters apologize in fear, this era is the supremacy of imperial power.

In the north of the city, a sunny hillside is also an excellent feng shui treasure place, and the old man is buried here.

Li Pojun also wrote the inscription with his own hands in that unique thin gold body, but he envied the officials of Yuanzhou to death, not to mention the high-quality coffin, there was no shortage of incense, only His Royal Highness's body of ten thousand gold, but he personally helped the spirit. What a stunt the thin gold body is, but it is an inscription for it, and this Zhao family's grandmother is very beautiful.

After the funeral of the Zhao family, Li Pojun did not return to Yuanzhou City, and went out of the West Gate after saying goodbye to Hanwa and two Xuanjia soldiers.

Out of the city gate, Li Pojun only felt irritable in his heart, life is short, this person said no, it is gone, and most of them are good people, is it really that good people don't live long, and bad people live for a thousand years. Although Li Pojun has seen a lot of dead people in his two lives, this kind of thing is really depressing, after all, it is not an enemy, not a sinner, not a villain, but an ordinary and kind simple people.

Cheering, is to beat the horse all the way galloping, fortunately they are all strong men, and are good horses, can withstand the bumps, the three of them are not alone, walk for a while is to see a continuous mountain range, very sinister, this is the rice tank mountain, that is, the Liupan Mountain area in later generations, it is really a big mountain.

"Your Highness, in front of the avenue is Migang Mountain, I heard that there are robbers on the road, we don't have many guards, why don't we wait and take the trail to bypass." Liang Gang came up and asked worriedly. It's not that he's afraid of death, and he's not afraid of those rabble, but His Highness is here, and if he hurts His Highness, wouldn't it be a sin.

"Walking the trail? Not to mention that the trail needs to take more time to detour farther, but is it safe to say that the trail is sparsely populated, and it is not good to know the path. Just take this avenue."

Li Pojun frowned, when he even refuted the idea of taking a small road, if such a big mountain took a small road, it would delay a lot of time.

"But Your Highness, there are too few of us, and the last general really doesn't dare to trap His Highness in that dangerous place." Liang Gang still stubbornly asked for his life, but he heard that there were two or three hundred bandits on Migang Mountain, if they rushed down, how could the four of them resist.

"Well, in this way, I'll wait at that mountain pass to rest for a while, rest my feet, and then I'll wait for the horses to whip up and pass through this mountain road in one go, and four good horses will definitely be able to rush out of the mountain road before the bandit can react."

Li Pojun also knew that this Liang Gang was a loyal protector, if he didn't make it clear, he couldn't say that these two stunned people would directly tie him up and bring him back, and they wouldn't let him get into danger.

Liang Gang listened and looked at the wide avenue, and then put his hand on the pergola and looked straight at the dense forests and mountains in the distance.

"According to His Highness, it is better to rest under this tree, and then hurry over. If you rest at that mountain pass, you will be seen by the bandit spies." As he spoke, Liang Gang pointed to a big tree on the side of the road, and there was a large shady place under the tree.

Li Pojun was also very convinced of Liang Gang's caution, but he also agreed, even if he agreed. Hanwa and another Xuanjia soldier named Sun Da have no doubt, only follow them.

After resting for a moment, the horse was also fed some water, the four of them turned over and got on the horse, Li Pojun commanded to keep the knife in his hand at all times, and the four of them scolded the horse under the leadership of Li Pojun, just like the person who fled for his life on this official road.

Li Pojun is also very sad in his heart, is this still an official road, is this a great road, is this still a peaceful world? If a prince wants to cross the road, he has to run so wildly and run for his life, if he has dozens of soldiers and horses in his hands, he dares to end this bandit's den, if it is a dozen brothers in his previous life, why should he be so embarrassed.

The anger only turned into the urging of the jade top horse, the jade top BMW is not yet in the period of adulthood and strength, and it is still a teenager, but after all, it is a BMW, under the urging, it is a horse first, but Liang Gang and several Turkic war horses did not keep up, and they fell behind a few horses.

The four of them just ran wildly, all the way to the west, leaving only the dust all the way, and before they knew it, they saw that the sun was even more vicious, and the sun was in the middle of the sky.

It is the opening of the mountain range in front of me, and the continuous mountains are no longer close in front of us, but on the horizon.

Looking at a desolate village in front of me, with loess walls, withered grass houses, and stone yards, there are no people, and birds frequented from time to time, it is obvious that this is a village that has escaped, and everyone is gone.

The four of them found an abandoned small temple here, only a small grass house, which enshrined a statue of the god of broken wealth, Li Pojun thought that this was a city god temple, but when he thought that the city god temple was only available in the city, the city god is the god of nature, is the god of guarding the city, where did the city god temple come from in this small village in the wilderness, and took a closer look under curiosity, it turned out that this was the land god worshipped, and it was no wonder that the little people lived on the land, and they believed in the land god in every way.

Bowed, a little respect, is to rest on the spot, there is a shade of the sun, with a little dry food, is a groggy nap, Liang Gang also knows Li Pojun's hobby, the weather is hot and you have to take a nap, but it is so hot that it is really not good to hurry, rest is good, look at the boring Hanwa lying with a wheat straw in his mouth, a burst of envy, is at the door squinting for a while.
