Chapter 216 Going to the Imperial City
Yuan Zichong also nodded with a smile, and waved at them: "Be careful all the way, write a letter if you have anything to do."
"We're leaving, grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, dad, take care."
Mo Chenxiu nodded with a smile, cupped his hands at everyone, and pursed his lips.
Qing Yuxi also cupped his hands, Guo Jingming looked at his parents and said with a smile: "Father and mother, we are leaving, don't miss us too much in your family, just eat and sleep well."
"go Go."
Madam Guo smiled and waved at them.
The three of them, Mo Chenxiu, looked at each other, and after whipping for a while, they drove away on the horse.
"Xixi, Jingming, let's go."
Mo Chenxiu smiled at them, looked at each other, waved his whip, and drove away on his horse.
Watching the backs of the three children leaving, Guo Wenliang and the others stood at the door for a while and said, "Let's go, let's go back."
Because the imperial city is a bit far from Nanling City, they prepared a lot of things along the way.The things that Guo Wenliang prepared for Guo Jingming before are also very complete, and there are also many things in the other party's storage ring, which are completely sufficient.
"Xixi, slow down, don't worry."
Mo Chenxiu saw that Qing Yuxi was riding a horse a little faster, and he was not at ease, so he immediately yelled at him.
Hearing this, Qing Yuxi slowed down, smiled, and said: "It's okay, fortunately, it's the end of August, and it's still warm, otherwise, it must be very cold in winter."
"Yes, if it's winter, you can't ride so fast."
Guo Jingming nodded in agreement, swung his whip, felt the passing wind, and sighed comfortably.
Mo Chenxiu looked at the two of them, couldn't help but smiled, and said, "Slow down, I'll take a look at the map."
"it is good."
Qing Yuxi and Guo Jingming nodded. They had never been to the imperial city before, so they had to look at the map. Fortunately, Guo Zijie wrote back and told them which towns they needed to pass on the way. Much more convenient.
The three of them decided on the route and direction, and then speeded up. Because they chose to ride horses instead of using their cultivation bases, it was quite convenient. Very tired.
With the tents made by Guo Wenliang, even if they didn't encounter an inn at night, they would be fine. They would sleep outside, and they would not worry about danger due to their cultivation.
On the first day of the journey, they slept outdoors. After a day of driving, the horses were also very tired. Even if they didn't need to rest, the horses still needed rest.
In the evening, Mo Chenxiu and the others took a look at the sky, and then prepared to stop and set up a tent to spend the night outside.
"Jingming, Xixi, you go hunting. If there is no game nearby, check to see if there is a river, and catch a few fish. I'll build the stove and collect firewood. Let's rest here at night."
Mo Chenxiu looked at the surrounding environment, found a relatively flat place, and said to the two people.
"Okay, let's go hunting then."
Qing Yuxi nodded with a smile, buckled the horse aside, and went hunting with Guo Jingming.
It's the end of August now, and it didn't get dark so fast, but they had been driving for a day, except for a rest at the inn at noon, they kept on driving, and the horse was still a little tired.
After feeding the horses with hay, Mo Chenxiu began to prepare firewood and meals. He asked Qing Yuxi and Guo Jingming to go hunting, but this seemed to be a bamboo forest, so I don't know if there were any prey. If not, it would be okay to catch some fish of.
Mrs. Guo prepared some food for them before, but they planned to eat those at noon. If they didn’t meet the inn at noon, they would have to eat outside. They don’t like to eat dry food, so those meals are still reserved for noon , Hunt if you can at night.
Quickly setting up the stove, Mo Chenxiu piled the firewood he had picked up and started to live.
When Qing Yuxi and Guo Jingming went hunting, they found only some pheasants, so they caught two pheasants and two fish by the river, which were enough for them to eat.
"It smells so good, it's the first time I've made this grilled fish."
Guo Jingming took a bite of the grilled fish, his eyes lit up, it tastes good, the meat is tender, and it tastes better than pheasant.
"It's really good. I never thought of eating grilled fish before."
Qing Yuxi couldn't help smiling, the taste of this grilled fish is really very good, very delicious.
Seeing this, Mo Chenxiu couldn't help but smiled, and said: "If you like it, eat more."
There are also a lot of wild game, and cooking is his specialty, so it's not difficult for him.
The three of them gathered around the fire, eating barbecue and meat buns, which was pretty good.
"It's been a tiring day, let's go to bed early."
Not long after eating, Guo Jingming let out a sigh of relief. Although they were all on horseback today, they were still a little tired after a long time.
"it is good."
Qing Yuxi and Mo Chenxiu nodded. They were also a little tired. Because the tent was relatively large, it was divided into two, so that it could become two independent spaces.
Stayed outside for one night, the three of them drank some hot porridge at dawn the next morning, and hurried on their way again.
It's just that in view of the agitation yesterday, the speeds of the three of them all slowed down today.
"This is the chestnut town my sister mentioned in the letter."
Guo Jingming looked at the passing town and the plaque on it, and then remembered the town Guo Zijie mentioned in his letter.
"It should be, let's go, let's go in. Most of us have lived outside for the past three days. It's time to find an inn and have a good night's rest."
Mo Chenxiu pulled the rein and said to the two people.
Qing Yuxi nodded, and rode slowly towards the inside. He had been on the road for three days, and he hadn't cleaned himself up much. Looking for an inn, he must take a good bath and sleep well.
This chestnut town is not very big, everyone went in, asked the passers-by where the inn was, and then went straight to the inn.
"Let's just rest here for the night."
Mo Chenxiu saw the name of this inn, it was called Laiwang Inn, so he couldn't help smiling, and said to Qing Yuxi and the others.
Qing Yuxi nodded, and the three of them went in directly, and asked the shopkeeper for two upper rooms.
"Xixi, take a break, I'll put water on for you, and take a bath later."
Mo Chenxiu took a sip of tea and said to Qing Yuxi who was beside him.
Qing Yuxi nodded and ate some pastries. She hasn't had dinner yet, so she's a little hungry.
The two of them took a shower first, and asked the shop waiter to bring them food. Guo Jingming also came over to eat after packing up.
"Oh, it really is comfortable in the inn."
Guo Jingming ate two mouthfuls of braised fish and said with satisfaction that the food at this inn is not bad, although it is not as delicious as Mo Chenxiu's, but it is still good.
"You can sleep well at night, there are two towns, and you will reach the imperial city."
Mo Chenxiu smiled, this chestnut town is the third last town, and there are two more towns, which is the imperial city.Most of the people who came to Chestnut Town also went to the imperial city, and everyone knew that.
Qing Yuxi nodded, along the way, they didn't meet anyone at first, but when they approached Lizi Town, they also found some people going to the imperial city.
After dinner, the three of them went to rest.They stayed on horseback for three days and were a little tired and needed to adjust themselves.
Early the next morning, after Mo Chenxiu and Qing Yuxi woke up, looking at the light outside, they couldn't help but look at each other and smiled.
"We both woke up a bit late today."
Qing Yuxi stretched her waist, looked at Mo Chenxiu and smiled.
Mo Chenxiu reached out to stroke his hair, and said: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry anyway, maybe the two of us woke up earlier, Jingming must be sleeping soundly."
Guo Jingming likes to sleep in more than the two of them. Last night, the three of them said that they can sleep until they wake up naturally. These days they are sleeping in tents, and finally they can take a rest in the inn. Of course, this is not to be missed. Here's the chance.
After getting up, the two of them washed up and went down to have breakfast.
Guo Jingming didn't wake up, and Mo Chenxiu and Qing Yuxi didn't call each other, but looked at the map in the room.
"There are two more towns next, and then the imperial city."
Qing Yuxi looked at the marks drawn on the map. The other two towns were not far from the imperial city, and it would take half a day to get there by riding a horse.
"Well, I guess we can arrive at the Imperial City tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Mo Chenxiu responded, then looked at the gloomy weather outside, and said, "I'll go out later to see if there is a carriage and buy one. The weather doesn't look very good, maybe it will rain on the road."
"it is good."
Qing Yuxi nodded, if it rained before they left, they would definitely not leave, but if it rained after they left, they would have to prepare a carriage.
The two talked for a while in the room, not long after Mo Chenxiu went out, Guo Jingming woke up, and found that Qing Yuxi and Mo Chenxiu had not only finished their meal, but Mo Chenxiu had also gone shopping, he couldn't help but smiled .
"Actually, you can wake me up."
Guo Jingming ate some pastries. There was no breakfast in the inn, so he could only eat some fruits and pastries.
Hearing this, Qing Yuxi smiled, took a sip of hot tea, and said, "Anyway, there is no rush, we have been on horseback these days, and you are quite tired."
"Well, when shall we leave then?"
Guo Jingming patted the pastry crumbs in his hand, drank some tea, looked at Qing Yuxi and asked.
Qing Yuxi thought for a while, pointed to the sky outside, and said: "Look at the sky outside, it's a bit cloudy, if it rains soon, we won't leave, if it doesn't rain, we will leave when Chenxiu comes back ,How about it?"
"Okay, even if it rains, I don't mind if I go."
Guo Jingming smiled. It's not that they haven't experienced rainy days, but the speed will be slower, and there will be no problem.
