Mutated Tao Chapter 36: Donkey cart

Looking at the six taels of silver, Li Huowang didn't bother to shirk it, and put his hand into his bosom, he really needed the money now.

"The little Taoist, take your time, let's go get ready, let's go on our way tomorrow."

Eat and drink enough, the Lu family is also sleepy, and they have to go back to catch up on sleep, after all, they didn't sleep all night last night.

After the Lu family left, Li Huowang was the only one in the house. He looked at the roast chicken in front of him that was bigger than his own head, and after thinking for a while, he asked the servants beside him, "Is there anything to pretend?"

Not long after, Li Huowang came out of Wuligang with a donkey, and behind the donkey was pulling a cart full of sacks of grain.

Although six liang of silver is not much, you should save it, but you can't afford a horse, but you can still buy an old donkey.

With this thing, at least there is no need to carry food or anything along the way.

When Li Huowang came out, he saw that other people were still nesting in the pile of rice stalks in the field.

They did not enter the village, obviously because they were afraid that their strange appearance would scare the villagers.

After walking over, Li Huowang found that they were roasting dried sweet potatoes with fire.

Li Huowang stretched out his hand to lift it from the car, and he pulled out a delicious roast chicken. "Eat this."

A group of people have eaten dry food for so many days, how can they bear it when they see this thing, they rushed over excitedly,

A dozen or so people share a chicken, and everyone can't share much, but everyone eats it very seriously. Even the chicken bones were carefully bitten into pieces and put into the mouth to swallow.

"Brother Li, where did this chicken come from? And this donkey cart, where did you go last night?" Bai Lingmiao asked while holding the chicken's neck in both hands.

Li Huowang sat on the pile of rice straw and closed his eyes, briefly describing the cause and process.

When she learned that Li Huowang had worked hard to get this thing, Bai Lingmiao put down the chicken neck in her hand. She heard the sound and crawled to Li Huowang's side, looking at him with distressed expression.

"Senior Brother Li, I'm sorry, it's our burdens that drag you down. If it weren't for us, you wouldn't have to work so hard."

Li Huowang opened his eyes and looked at the girl who was blindfolded with a blue cloth, "It has nothing to do with you, since that thing can come to the Hu Family Ancestral Hall, it must have been eyeing us, even if it didn't happen last night, Sooner or later, we will hit each other."

"And ah..." Li Huowang said and paused, remembering the time when he was completely hallucinated in Qingfeng Temple. "Also, it's really not certain who will be the burden in the future."

Li Huowang thought for a while, then looked at the girl in front of him again, and reached out to hold her hand.

Bai Lingmiao flinched shyly, but stopped immediately.

But after a while, Li Huowang thought about it again. Lying on the pile of rice straw, he closed his eyes, turned his gaze to the side, and slowly let go of his tightly clenched hands.

However, the moment he let go, those soft hands quickly chased after him and held him tightly.

After a good night's rest, two groups of people with different purposes set off again.

Their next goal is Jianye Town, which will also be the first large-scale gathering place for Li Huowang to enter this world.

"Master Xiaodao, Wuligang is not far from Jianye Town. According to our schedule, we will arrive in about four or five days." Lu Zhuangyuan reported to Li Huowang.

Li Huowang turned his head to look at Zhao Wu who was being carried by a fool, "How is it? You are going home soon, are you happy?"

Zhao Wu said before that his family is in Jianye. After getting in touch these days, Li Huowang has a preliminary understanding of Zhao Wu.

He feels that the other party's brain is very useful, but because of his physical inconvenience and illiterate, he has not realized his potential.

"Zhao Wu, it looks like you're going to be home now, what's the matter, you have to invite some of us brothers to the restaurant?" Gou Wa jokingly teased.

However, Zhao Wu's reaction was beyond the expectations of others. There was a wry smile on his face, "So what if a **** like me goes home, I can't lift my hands or shoulders. I'm just a fool at home. .”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere became quiet, and his words touched the hearts of all Yao Yin.

Those who can stay in the material room, except for Li Huowang, who are more or less sick, even if they return to the original place, they are still the aliens that are feared or hated by others.

It is very good to escape the fear of death after coming out of Qingfengguan, but it is not something to be happy to return to that environment where people despise and hostile.

Feeling that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Li Huowang turned his head to look at Zhao Wu, "Who said you are trash? I will teach you how to make alchemy while you have nothing to do during this period of time. You can remember as much as you can, and you can go home and be a barefoot doctor." As for starving to death."

Zhao Wu was stunned for a moment when he heard the news, and then his expression became agitated, and his eyes were full of strong desire. "Brother Li, I don't want to learn alchemy, can you teach me how to read?"

"Why do you want to learn how to read and learn more prescriptions? Wouldn't it be nice to have a meal discount when you go home to practice medicine?" Li Huowang couldn't understand the emotions of these locals.

It’s not that reading is useless, of course it’s very useful, but it takes five years to complete elementary school, teaching an illiterate who can’t even write his own name is a big project, and it doesn’t take a few years Can't get down at all.

"It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter if you don't learn much, you can learn as much as you can."

Although Li Huowang didn't understand Zhao Wu's desire for knowledge, since he wanted to learn, of course he could teach him.

"Fool, put Zhao Wu on your back on the donkey cart, and I will teach him how to read."

Zhao Wu knows nothing, and Li Huowang can only use the simple words of Mukouren to enlighten him.

Teaching and teaching, Li Huowang found that the surrounding area was very quiet. He raised his head and found that everyone, including the Lu family, was listening attentively.

They listened attentively and did not speak, and there was awe on their faces. It seemed that Li Huowang was doing something solemn and sacred.

"Hehehe, that, little Daoist."

The grinning Lu Zhuangyuan leaned over there with two pieces of bacon in one hand and his youngest son in the other.

Just as Li Huowang was waiting for the other party to speak, dust rose from behind the forest path.

Not long after, a horse stopped in front of them, and the one who jumped off the horse was a fat boy in a young grade.

Lu Zhuangyuan obviously knew this person in Wuligang, so he quickly bowed his hands. "Hey, young master Hu, slow down, where are you going?"

"I'm not going anywhere! I'll go to the opera with you! Then I can listen to the opera every day!"

The excited Young Master Hu's voice is very immature. Although he looks strong, his voice has not changed.

"Hey, stop making such jokes, go back quickly, don't worry your grandpa."

"Don't worry, I'll give you money for listening to the show!" A longevity lock made of gold was forced into Lu Zhuangyuan's hand by him.

Lu Zhuangyuan's expression was very tangled at this moment, he was in a dilemma holding the gold in his hand.

But soon, someone came chasing him on horseback and rescued him.

"Dad! Don't drag me! I won't go back! I want to sing!!"

"Crack~!" The big mouth slammed on Young Master Hu's face, startling everyone around, and the boy's face swelled up quickly.

"You are an actor! You dare to be an actor, how cheap you are!! That is a low-level low-level! If you dare to be an actor and embarrass the Hu family, I will beat you to death!"

With a pull of the longevity lock held high in Lu Zhuangyuan's hand, the man carried his son on his shoulders and rode away on two horses.

He left, Li Huowang looked at Lu Zhuangyuan again, waiting for what he had just said.

Lv Zhuangyuan stood there awkwardly holding two pieces of bacon, opened his mouth several times as if he wanted to say something but didn't make any sound.

The old man who has always been very smooth, is at a loss for the first time like a child.

In the end, he still didn't say anything, nodded to Li Huowang with a forced smile, and pulled his son towards the carriage next to him.
