"Okay, then I'll take it on the road."
An hour ago, Li Wan said this and felt very handsome, because he saw that the blind old man wanted him to take it away and give the donkey freedom.
But now, Li Wan's mind was full of regret.
This stupid ass is not only stupid, but also lazy.
When I sit on it, I have to sit upside down before it even wants to move.
Finally he was willing to leave, and he moved slowly. After taking three steps, he had to lower his head to eat grass. After taking five steps, he had to be in a daze for a while. After taking fifty steps, he had to stop to poop and urinate. After taking a hundred steps, he just stopped. Take a quarter of an hour's rest.
You can't hit it, you can avoid it no matter how you hit it, you will only tire yourself.
Scolding is a waste of effort. No matter what you say, it will only respond with two sounds: ah and uh.
Let alone leave it to fend for itself here. If he ran back, wouldn't he become a treacherous person when he saw the blind old man again in the future?
Li Wan lost his temper and had no choice but to let the donkey carry him and wander slowly along the mountain path. Fortunately, there were grass, flowers, and birds and animals in the mountains. Compared with walking alone in the heavy fog before, Li Wan felt better. Much more comfortable.
After walking for a long time, Li Wan didn't go far. When he looked back, he could still see the blind old man eating in front of his house and waving to him.
"If you keep walking slowly, I'll incite you!"
This threat was of no use. Li Wan soon discovered that the donkey was a female.
After knowing the donkey's gender, Li Wan decided to be gentler to it, but this did not improve the relationship between the two, nor did it make the donkey move faster.
The only advantage of the donkey is that it knows the way, which saves Li Wan a lot of worry. The mountain in front of him is huge and there are countless forked roads. It would be a lot of trouble for Li Wan to walk on his own, but the donkey seems to have walked through it before. It was the same thing countless times, and he was very familiar with it. He could always choose the flat and easy path. The two of them walked for another half a day, and Li Wan discovered many strange things in this seemingly ordinary mountain forest.
First of all, after walking for such a long time, the scenery in front of me was repeated many times. Behind the mountain, there is still a mountain, and behind the tree, there are still trees. This is a normal phenomenon, but it is not normal to see the exact same valley, the exact same short tree, and the exact same three hares running under the tree several times in a row. .
It's not that the donkey is taking a detour. Although the donkey is turning left and right, the direction is clear and it is indeed walking in the same direction.
He didn't fall into any formation. Li Wan carved a mark on a tree he saw repeatedly, but when he saw the tree again, there was no mark. This meant that they were two identical trees.
It doesn’t matter if the trees look the same, but what about the rocks? But what about the three hares?
What's the explanation for this?
Li Wan couldn't figure it out for a moment, and he discovered a second doubt in his confusion. The sun in the mountain would never set, and it would always hang at the highest position in the sky.
This also supported the first question from the side, that is, they had indeed been moving forward, and they had indeed seen many identical things in the mountains.
Li Wan couldn't help but think back to the conversation he had with the blind old man behind the door. This thought revealed a third doubt.
The old man said that since he became a gatekeeper, he was the first person to come here and ride away his mount.
But Xu Hui mentioned this to him before, saying that this place is a place where there is no return, and it has been visited by ancestors.
So the blind old man lied? No, everything the old man said should be true.
oh!
Li Wan suddenly slapped the donkey's butt. The donkey subconsciously ducked and almost shook Li Wan off.
I understand, the blind old man is not lying, he has forgotten and forgotten that someone has been here.
So don't worry about the repetitive trees or the never-setting sun. There will definitely be dangers waiting ahead.
Thinking of this, Li Wan finally regained his energy, but the donkey couldn't stop again.
Li Wan opened his smile and made the maids in the palace hide their faces and scream whenever he smiled: "What a donkey, what a girl, what a sway, what do you want to do so that you can go quickly?"
What would they think if they knew that His Highness the Prince once said all sorts of flattering words to a donkey?
"I won't ride you anymore, and you will lead the way. How about that?"
"How about I go find you the fattest piece of turf?"
"I'm going to pick some wild fruits for you to eat. Do you want pears or berries?"
"When I take you back to Xia Ya Shengdu, I will ask Li Qifeng to make you the 'Number One Horse in the World'. How about that?"
But the donkey was still the same, indifferent, walking and stopping until the two of them reached a valley.
"Look, that tree over there, if I remember it correctly, we met an identical tree an hour ago. Even the wormholes in the tree are in the same place..."
Before the last word "square" was uttered, Li Wan felt that the donkey's pace suddenly became faster, and it galloped forward hundreds of feet in one breath.
"Hey, you finally figured it out!"
Li Wan was very happy. He originally wanted to pat the donkey's butt again, but raised his hand and finally patted his thigh.
The donkey croaked and ran wildly, but glanced back in horror, and then let out a quick and panicked "ah uh" sound.
At the same time, Li Wan also felt a huge object flying from the sky behind him.
Looking back, he saw an arrow as thick as his own waist or something like a javelin being thrown towards him.
The donkey cleverly dodged forward and avoided the blow.
The javelin carried a powerful wind and pierced into a mountain in front of Li Wan.
With a roar, the entire mountain was shattered by the huge force, almost falling apart in the blink of an eye.
Countless gravel, mud, and broken trees overturned like rain in front of Li Wan, quickly blocking the way forward.
At the same time, there were several loud thunder-like noises coming from behind, which were the footsteps of some giant creature running through the mountains.
"Piao Yao! Turn around! Let's see who this is!"
The danger is here.
It was naturally impossible for Li Wan to escape.
He had long felt that this journey was too lonely, but now the exciting thing finally came.
The donkey said "Ah uh", abandoned Li Wan, and ran away.
Li Wan looked up and saw the huge javelin in front of him, and let out a sigh.
When he turned around, he was stunned.
In front of him was a giant in bronze armor. His skin was so dark that his nose and mouth could not be seen. Only his hair and beard hidden behind his helmet were as white as snow.
A pair of red blind eyes, now wide and round, are searching for something in the mountains and plains.
This appearance was very familiar to Li Wan.
"Now, are you no longer blind?"
Li Wan shouted at the giant.
Their eyes met.
I understood immediately.
The giant reached out and pulled out the giant iron gun from the mountain, and roared three times at Li Wan without saying a word.
Li Wan rubbed his hands, punched and rushed forward.
