Chapter 345 [Ancient Road] (Part 2)

Although Zhang Changgong had never dealt with the Hong family, he saw the huge changes in Luo Lie's emotions along the way, so he naturally knew the Hong family's status in Luo Lie's heart. He comforted Luo Lie and said: "The lucky person has his own appearance, I believe..." His words were interrupted by the rolling spring thunder.

The wind suddenly became stronger, the river surface was surging, and the sailboats were floating up and down in the waves, and the passengers on the boat exclaimed in panic.

Zhang Changgong forgot to speak and closed his eyes. Although the wind and waves in front of him were incomparable to their experience in the sea, he still didn't like this feeling of being in the river. Only by keeping his feet on the ground can he feel more comfortable.

After another half an hour of suffering in the wind and waves, the ship finally arrived at the other shore safely. The rain still showed no sign of weakening. Zhang Changgong's feet fell on the bluestone floor of the dock, and a hanging heart fell to the ground.

At this moment, Luo Lie had already negotiated a carriage. Although he had crossed the river, the remaining distance was more than 300 miles, and most of them were rugged and difficult mountain roads.

The two got on the carriage and walked in the bumpy mountain path. They arrived in Qingyang smoothly that night. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the coachman led them to stay in an inn at the foot of Jiuhua Mountain.

Although this place is not a prosperous town, because it is not far from Jiuhua Buddha Kingdom and heavy rains, there are many guests coming to stay. There are no separate rooms left, only the Datong Bed can be accommodated. Now there is no choice in this situation. Luo Lie and Zhang Changgong are both people who can endure hardships, so it is not wise to rush in the rain, so they decided to stay here.

Because there were too many customers, there were not many dishes at that time. The two ordered a pot of dried bamboo shoots and roasted pork, one edamame, one fried dried shrimp with leeks, and a plate of fried peanuts. They ordered two kilograms of local green plum wine.

Zhang Changgong could guess Luo Lie’s mood at this moment, picked up the wine glass and said, “Since you come, you will be at ease. Since God keeps us, we can only be at ease.”

Luo Lie smiled and said, "When did Brother Zhang learn so much?" You should know that Zhang Changgong is illiterate and cannot read a lot of words. He could not say these words in the past. However, today is different from the past. He has been intoxicated by Luo Lie for a long time, and now he has been used to seeing the world. Now he can even make witty comments.

Zhang Changgong laughed and said, "I have never eaten pork and I have seen pigs run..." After saying that, he felt that this was inappropriate. The two looked at each other and laughed loudly.

After doing this glass of wine, Zhang Changgong picked up a piece of edamame and frowned and said, "Can this thing be eaten?"

Luo Lie nodded, picked up a piece and ate it first. Then Zhang Changgong swallowed it in one bite as he was like, and nodded while eating, saying, "It's not bad."

Luo Lie said: "The mountainous areas in southern Anhui are poor. People are reluctant to throw away the tofu when they see it growing hair. They pretend to be brave enough to try it. Unexpectedly, the tofu is surprisingly delicious. Since then, edamame has been found. Locals often say that they eat snacks of edamamememe and are always a native of Huizhou."

Zhang Changgong sighed and said, "I will never be able to beat you in this life."

Luo Liedao: "I have specialized in my skills and have successors in my knowledge. Brother Zhang is not as good as my skills in hunting and archery."

Zhang Changgong took a sip of wine and said, "Although the power in my body has been reduced, the accuracy of the archery head has come back."

Luo Lie said: "In the past, I always wanted to do everything perfectly, but now I find that there are many things in this world that you can't succeed by working hard."

Zhang Changgong said: "Working hard does not necessarily lead to success, but not working hard will inevitably lead to failure."

Luo Lie laughed. Zhang Changgong's words always showed a simple truth. He realized that an unprecedented sense of fatigue was created deep in his heart. This fatigue originated from his understanding of the times, from his inability to get rid of the direction of history, and even more so, the entanglement of his inability to change the fate of the people around him.

Luo Lie said: "I will be leaving for a while when the Hong family is saved."

Zhang Changgong's hand holding the wine glass paused for a moment, and then slowly put the wine glass down: "Where do you go?" After asking, he began to regret it, because with Luo Lie's nature, he would definitely not say anything he didn't want to say.

Luo Lie said: "Even if it's done."

Zhang Changgong frowned and wanted to get the wine pot. Luo Lie had already picked it up first and filled him with a glass of wine.

Zhang Changgong said, "Go together!" Although he didn't know where Luo Lie was going, he always had a premonition that Luo Lie would inevitably go this time with great risks.

Luo Lie said: "Sometimes I think that if you didn't meet me and still hunt in Pale Mountain, you would be happy to be free and easy."

Zhang Changgong drank the wine in his glass and said, "I often remembered the days of Pale Mountain when I went out to sea last time, but when we really returned to Pale Mountain, I found that even if I returned there, I would never be able to return to the days of the past."

Luo Lie looked at Zhang Changgong and felt inexplicable guilt in his heart. It was himself who changed his life.

Zhang Changgong said: "When my mother was alive, she often said something to me. Good men were determined to be in all directions. If I hadn't met you, I might not have been able to get out of the Pale Mountain in my life, and I would be a mountaineer who hunted for a living."

Luo Liedao: "The truth is just plainness."

Zhang Changgong shook his head and said, "I am a person who is unwilling to be ordinary. Do you know that Weilin has never stopped his killer career."

Luo Lie looked at Zhang Changgong in surprise, and Zhang Changgong said again: "Why is Arnold coming back? All are the same reasons. Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat! The nature of human beings cannot be changed like animals!"

Luo Liedao: "He can change."

Zhang Changgong said: "I have changed too. If it weren't for Fujino Toshito sucking away more than half of my strength this time, I really don't know what it would be like in the future."

Luo Lie pursed his lips and said after a while: "Actually, there is something I have always kept from everyone."

Zhang Changgong said, "Don't say it, I don't understand it even after I say it. Anyway, I will go wherever you go."

For Luo Lie, it was another sleepless night. Snoring sounds in the big room were heard one after another, and the air was filled with strange smells of body odor and musty smells. Luo Lie put on his clothes, got up and came outside the door. He saw that the rain had stopped. The night sky was deep and high after being washed by heavy rain.

The air at night was slightly cool, and the air was filled with the breath of grass and soil. This breath shocked Luo Lie's spirit. After all, what he concealed was not told to Zhang Changgong. It was about the Yu God Monument. He discovered a secret in the base of the Yu God Monument.

Song Changjin obviously was not that simple, otherwise he would not have stared at the blue bead. As for Haruko Fujino who could design such a carefully designed trap, bring everyone into it, and take this opportunity to get rid of Toshito Fujino, this woman's scheming and courage are undoubtedly superior to others.

Luo Lie was really alert to Haruko Fujino swallowed all the power in Toshito Fujino and turned it into his own use. Haruko Fujino was the final devourer. Luo Lie concludes that the biggest secret of the Fujino family's "Black Sun Forbidden Code" should fall into Haruko Fujino, otherwise Toshito Fujino would not have spent such a great price to find and deal with her.

In Feiying Castle, Luo Lie was not sure enough to deal with Haruko Fujino, not to mention that she still had an ace in her hand, and all signs indicate that the sparrow is probably under her control.

As for Lan Ximei, Luo Lie has not been able to judge her position yet. Although he can be sure that Lan Ximei likes her, he can even conclude that Lan Ximei will not harm her, Lan Ximei should not treat others like him. Lan Ximei and Haruko Fujino once showed him the same photo. Is there some unknown connection in this?

Luo Lie raised his head and looked at the stars in the sky. He heard that after death, people will become a star in the sky. I wonder if there are any parents in these stars? I wonder if they were as confused as they were now when they traveled through time and space to this era.

Luo Lie took out a blue bead from his close-fitting pocket. The bead gradually became brighter under the moonlight, and looked like Luo Lie holding a blue star in his palm...

Before dawn, they had already set off on the road. Although the rain stopped, the mountain road was muddy and difficult to walk. The carriage was marching in the mud and fell into the mud pit several times in the middle. Luo Lie and Zhang Changgong had to come down to help push the cart. They had hoped to arrive in Huizhou that day, but the heavy rain that made a comeback in the afternoon forced them to give up this idea.

Haste means not to achieve success, and Luo Lie's mood is quite peaceful. He can already judge that this game is aimed at him. Before he entered the game, the possibility of the Hong family's grandson encountering an unexpected situation is not high.

It was raining all night long. When they were walking halfway up the mountain, a landslide occurred on the road ahead, and the car could no longer pass. The coachman looked at the broken road ahead and was at a loss.

Luo Lie walked to the landslide and looked at it. The road surface where a carriage could be used for a carriage was still about half a meter left, and even people could only pass through it. It was obviously impossible for a carriage to pass here.

"Two masters, why don't we turn back and choose to walk around the mountain."

Luo Liedao: "How long will it take to delay?"

The coachman thought for a while and said, "It will take about one day."

Luo Lie shook his head and said, "Forget it, just send us here. Let's go the next way." The matter between the Hong family's grandfather and grandson cannot be delayed for too long, so as to avoid long nights of dreams.

Zhang Changgong also agreed to Luo Lie's choice. The two of them took their luggage and said goodbye to the driver, and walked through the landslide section. According to the driver, they could reach the town after climbing the mountain along this mountain. They should be able to rent a carriage and horse to continue moving forward. Because the driver did not complete the entire journey, they planned to refund the money to them, and Luo Lie confiscated it. It is not easy for ordinary people to make a living in this day and months.
