Chapter 143 Directions
The wind was very cold. When Ling Huaduo and Qiao Yunran passed by the walls of Heicheng, they looked at the faint light on the walls, and their moods became heavy.
The horse's hooves were silent, and the horse's neighing sound was also stuffed into the horse's hood. In the dark night, the escort team left the Black City like this.
In the night, the horse was also driving slowly. When it was a little far away from Black City, the escort team hung up the horse lantern, and everyone gradually dared to speak.
Ling Huaduo sighed and said to Qiao Yunran, "If we can go farther next time, I heard that the place is high and we will have the chance to meet the snow lotus in winter."
Qiao Yunran listened to Ling Huaduo's words and shook his head slightly and said, "I climbed the mountain outside Heicheng today. When I fell from the mountain, I thought that I can never act like this again.
The snow lotus grows on the steep cliff walls and in the cracks of the rocks. When I think about that scene, my courage is probably enough to stand at the foot of the mountain and look up."
Ling Huaduo heard Qiao Yunran's words and whispered: "My father said that those who dare to go to the snow mountain to pick snow lotus can only be real warriors. Most people can only go up to the middle of the mountain at most, and even if someone goes up the mountain, they may not be able to find snow lotus."
Qiao Yunran nodded gently, and she and Ling Huaduo sat in the bedding. She asked in a low voice: "Sister Huaduo, are we going to rush tonight?"
Ling Huaduo shook her head gently and said, "Last time, we were rushing like this, and we stopped to rest in the middle of the night."
Qiao Yunran and Ling Huaduo whispered: "Then I'll sleep for a while."
After saying that, Qiao Yunran immediately fell asleep against the wall of the car. Ling Huaduo pulled up the bedding, and she tilted her head and closed her eyes to sleep.
The carriage was moving forward, Qiao Zhaoshi and Daniu followed the vehicle in front with a serious expression. When they got on the carriage, Ling PaoTou came over to whisper to them, saying that if they saw a fire in the Black City, they would definitely send the message forward quickly.
When the big bull was driving, Qiao Zhaoshi paid attention to the rear. The direction of the black city was dark, and Qiao Zhaoshi felt a little calmer.
Daniu looked calm and whispered to Qiao Zhaoshi: "A few years ago, our escort team passed by the war zone. At that time, we were tired and the horses were tired. At that time, the escort leader would say several kinds of words. Wherever he went, he would be able to say things near that place."
Qiao Zhaoshi nodded gently. Qiao Zhaoshi accidentally turned around and saw the firelight on the other side of the Black City. He stood in the carriage in front and said, "There is a firelight."
After looking back, he whispered to Qiao Zhaoshi: "Brother Qiao, wake up Huaduo and Ran'er, we must hurry up."
Qiao Zhaoshi immediately stepped back. He knocked on the car door with a long stick. Ling Huaduo quickly woke up and said, "I'm awake."
Ling Huaduo reached out and pushed Qiao Yunran to wake him up and whispered: "Ran'er, wake up."
Qiao Yunran sat up straight and asked, "Sister Huaduo, what happened?"
Ling Huaduo shook her head gently, she reached out and pushed the window open. She looked back and closed the window. She said in a trembling voice: "There is a war in the black city."
Qiao Yunran followed her and leaned to the window. She reached out and pushed open the window. The firelight from the black city had already shone into the sky.
The carriage accelerated at this time. Ling Huaduo came over and closed the window. She looked at Qiao Yunran and whispered: "Luckily we are leaving."
Qiao Yunran's hands trembled, and the two sat directly on the stool. The carriage was very fast. They held the handles tightly, and they couldn't even say a word.
The escort team ran forward all the way, and they gave up the official road and walked on various paths.
When it was almost dawn, they were still blocking the road, with vehicles and pedestrians in front and people behind, and everyone looked panicked.
The vehicles of the raft team gradually disappeared in the night. Daniu and Qiao Zhaoshi took turns to drive the carriage, and they were all focused on their destination.
That night, Ling Huaduo and Qiao Yunran slept and woke up. When it was light dawn, they watched the endless stream of people through the gaps in the car window.
It was the first time Qiao Yunran faced such a messy situation. There was panic in her eyes, but there was indifferent in Ling Huaduo's eyes. She whispered to comfort Qiao Yunran and said, "We will be safe."
Qiao Yunran looked at Ling Huaduo and nodded slightly. She whispered to Ling Huaduo: "Let's take some things for my father and Uncle Daniu as breakfast?"
Ling Huaduo grabbed her hand, shook her head and said, "Uncle Qiao and uncle must have used breakfast. It's better to have less trouble than more things now. Let's sit quietly in the car."
Qiao Yunran nodded gently. When it was almost dawn, Qiao Zhaoshi and Daniu stopped the car on the side of the road. Ling Huaduo and Qiao Yunran got off the carriage and found a secluded place to pass by.
The expressions on Qiao Zhaoshi and Daniu at that time were almost unwilling tolerate them to express any objection. When Ling Huaduo pulled Qiao Yunran out of the carriage, she whispered: "Next time, maybe you won't find such a good opportunity."
Qiao Yunran nodded clearly. Sometimes, after living in the wild for a long time, it is easiest to liberate one's nature because many rules seem relatively unnecessary at this time.
It was getting dark, and the carriage slowly turned to the official road. Ling Huaduo closed the car window. She whispered to Qiao Yunran: "At this time, we can only take care of ourselves."
When the carriage reached an intersection in front, Qiao Zhaoshi and Daniu saw the instructions left by the escort team from the tree on the side of the road. They were driving along the direction of the road, and it was still a small road. Daniu and Qiao Zhaoshi whispered: "You go in and sleep for a while."
After Qiao Zhaoshiqing nodded, Daniu slowed down the car. Qiao Zhaoshiqing patted the car door. Ling Huaduo opened the car door. Qiao Zhaoshi entered the car. Ling Huaduo followed him out of the car and said, "I'll go ahead and look at some."
Qiao Zhaoshi nodded gently, Qiao Yunran quickly moved out of position. Qiao Zhaoshi took a look at Qiao Yunran's expression and whispered: "Ran'er, we will go home safely."
Qiao Yunran nodded vigorously and whispered: "Dad, I know."
Qiao Zhaoshi slept for about an hour before he woke up. Qiao Yunran wet the cloth towel and gave it to him. He took it and wiped his face, and asked softly: "The carriage has never stopped?"
Qiao Yunran nodded gently, Qiao Zhaoshi looked at Qiao Yunran and whispered: "Let's go, you can drive with me later."
Qiao Zhaoshi gently patted the car door, and the big bull said in a hoarse voice in front: "I have to stop for a while after this detour, and the horse must rest for a while."
Qiao Zhaoshi pushed open the window and looked forward and back. There were no more pedestrians on the road, and there were still many vehicles in front and behind.
