Because they had to rush for time this time, Jiang Michia and Song Jingyun had no intention of sightseeing or wandering around. Apart from staying and resting at night, they spent almost the rest of the time on the road.
Spring had just begun, and it was always a beautiful day. The sun was shining brightly, which made the carriage feel somewhat warm.
But Jiang Michia and Song Jingyun were not relaxing and relaxing in the sun. Instead, they were a little anxious.
Because when I set off from a town in the morning, I looked at the map and asked for directions. I said that I would walk north along the official road. In just half a day's work, I would pass through another town. After another half day's walk, I would reach the county seat. You can spend the night there at night.
But now we have been walking for most of the day, and we haven't even seen a village, let alone a town.
There was wasteland on both sides of the road, and I didn't meet anyone on the road.
Even the driver kept muttering, "Could it be that we are going the wrong way?"
"No, we didn't see any side roads along the way. It's just this road, so we shouldn't go wrong." Jiang Michia said, "Let's go forward."
"That's all." The coachman shook the whip in his hand.
We walked like this for more than an hour, and seeing the sun setting a little bit from the sky to the west, the driver couldn't bear it, so he simply let Jiang Michia, who was slightly lighter, climb to the roof of the car and let her look around. Take a look and see if there is a place to stay nearby.
After Jiang Michia climbed to the roof of the car, he set up an awning and looked around.
It doesn't matter, it makes me feel a little cold.
Everywhere was desolate, filled with withered grass in winter and bare forests that had lost all their leaves. Even if she stood on tiptoes, she could not see any towns or villages within sight.
"I guess that person is fooling us. There is probably no place to stay at night." Jiang Michia jumped off the carriage and patted the dust on his hands.
"Just walk as far forward as possible. When it gets dark, we'll find a place nearby to spend the night."
Try to move forward as much as possible, so that if you have another day's journey tomorrow, you can find a place to stay.
After all, it was in the wilderness and it was a cold and windy day. One night was barely enough, but if it was two nights, I would probably catch a cold easily.
The coachman has been driving people for many years. He often eats and sleeps in the open air on weekdays. He has long been accustomed to these things. He just nodded and said, "With a quilt in the car and a fire, I guess it will be about the same." "
When Song Jingyun and Jiang Michia got into the car, the driver shook the whip in his hand.
The carriage continued to move forward until it was completely dark, and then the coachman tightened the reins and stopped the carriage.
"This is a good place. Parking the carriage on the slope can protect you from the wind. There are many woods here and there is no shortage of firewood." The coachman suggested.
Jiang Michia also thinks this place is pretty good, especially since the soil looks like sand. After setting up a bonfire, you can roast some sweet potatoes in the soil to eat, which is delicious.
Song Jingyun didn't even look, he just glanced forward, "Why don't you go forward a little bit?"
"Young gentleman, if you go further it will be downhill. I'm afraid the wind will be strong at ground level and there won't even be a place to cover yourself," the coachman reminded.
And who knows if there are any wild animals in this wilderness. It is clean and has no traces. It is obviously a place where wild animals do not usually come.
"Let's go forward." Song Jingyun insisted.
Seeing the little son-in-law acting like this, Jiang Michia also said, "Then just walk forward, maybe there is a better place."
After all, my son-in-law's luck has always been very good.
