Food Fairy Lord

Chapter 116 Leaving Home
The next day, just after nightfall, the county government.

Standing by the stone table, Pei Ye watched Master Chang and Master Huang go through his luggage which he knew at a glance.

"How can you bring only two pieces of clothes? What if it rains?" Master Huang frowned, "I also need to bring a pair of straw sandals for shoes."

Chang Zhiyuan nodded and said: "And at least bring a bamboo hat - I'll get it for you."

"Where are the copper coins? Why do you only bring silver? Do you also want to give someone a piece of silver when you have a cup of tea on the way?"

"Dagger, flint. These are must-haves—didn't you bring them?"

Master Huang raised his eyes and glanced at him, then slapped the dagger on his waist on the table, and turned his head to the woodshed.

Pei Ye rubbed her head, looked at the package that had doubled in size in less than a quarter of an hour, looked up and saw Master Huang who had returned with a cold light in his hand, and said in surprise: "Axe, axe, don't you need it?"

"In the mountains and forests, there are many times when you need to chop." Master Huang put the small ax next to the dagger.

At this time, Chang Zhiyuan came back with a bamboo hat, patted Pei Ye and said, "Okay, we'll prepare for you here, you go to the back and pick a horse."

Pei Ye's eyes lit up, this was exactly what he was looking forward to today.

"it is good!"

Ever since she learned how to ride a horse, Pei Ye has always wanted to have a horse of her own.But firstly, horses are too expensive, and it costs nearly 20 taels to buy one in a small town, not to mention the cost of raising them; secondly, he does not leave the small town, so raising horses is useless.

Now the horses that Chang Zhiyuan asked him to pick are all owned by the public, and he could not be allowed to take them away at will. Chang Zhiyuan replaced one with the house that was used as a reward, and he made up for the extra price difference of three or four taels. This is where the horse-picking section begins.

Pei Ye walked briskly to the backyard, and the groom had already stood by the stable and waited.

Four large horses lined up, brown, brown, red, and yellow.

"There were originally two horses here at Yamen, and five horses at Wubei's side. I picked two good ones and brought them to you." The groom said, "Take a look."

"."

Pei Ye felt that he didn't need to look any further.

As soon as he entered the backyard, his eyes were already attracted by the big red colt on the second left that was half a head taller than the other three horses.

Pei Ye walked up to the horse and patted it gently.

The groom chuckled: "Hey, I knew it."

Pei Ye also smiled, turned around and said, "Uncle, can this one work?"

"Okay, if there's anything wrong with it, I'll pick it for you if you bring it here." The groom said, "But I have to tell you clearly, I know you like it because it looks mighty, but if you want to go to the city, it's better to choose another one." match."

He patted the hip next to him.

Pei Ye took a look and saw that this horse was yellow and white, the shortest among the four, and had a somewhat dull temperament. It was not as proud as the jujube horse, which was still chewing grass with its head down all the time.

Pei Ye was not very happy, pouted her lips and said, "I still want that horse."

"That's fine." The groom smiled, "That horse is really good."

He led the maroon horse in front of Pei Ye. Pei Ye looked up and down. The horse's coat was brown and red, like a ball of autumn leaves, and its mane and long tail were even redder, like a flame burning on the leaves. .

Its pair of black eyes did not lower its head to look at the new owner in front of it. Instead, it raised its head or looked left and right. Its hooves restlessly touched the ground, quite eager to try.

Pei Ye became more and more satisfied as he watched, nodded and said: "That's it!"

"Ah?" Pei Ye glanced blankly at the groom, who smiled kindly, picked up the horse, turned and left.

Pei Ye couldn't put it down and walked around the big horse several times before returning to the front yard. At this time, the two elders had reorganized the package and packed it neatly.

There are a total of: a large bag more than double the size, a roll of tarpaulin, which can be carried on the horse; a bag, containing small things such as fire-folding daggers, and the most important thing-the golden autumn of Fenghuai Wubi qualification documents.Afraid that he would lose this thing, Chang Zhiyuan opened two identical ones for him, and put the other in the dragon's belly; a full water pot; a pack of dried meat buns; a sword and a sword case, all tied With the strap, it can be carried on the back properly.

Following the instructions of the two elders, Pei Ye had a full meal at the county government office, and then Master Huang led the horse, and together with Chang Zhiyuan, sent him to the gate of the city.

The sky was already bright and the autumn air was refreshing. Pei Ye had a good sleep last night and had a full meal this morning. He was in good spirits. At this time, he raised his head and looked south, watching the avenue disappear into the slope.

"Safety comes first." Chang Zhiyuan gently held his wrist, "If you need anything, you can go to Bai Sibing. He and I have been friends for many years."

"En!" Pei Ye nodded.

Master Huang also patted him: "Go, a good man has ambitions everywhere, and he should have seen the world long ago. Wait for more than ten days, and I will take the children to find you."

Chang Zhiyuan nodded: "If I have time at that time, I will go and have a look."

Pei Ye was surprised: "Huh? The journey is exhausting, you can take care of your health, I will bring you good news."

Chang Zhiyuan smiled and shook his head: "I'm tired these few days. If there are elderly people over sixty in the entire county on weekdays, who is as strong as me—that's fine."

The old man let go of the young man's wrist: "Let's leave early."

"Yeah." Pei Ye took a step back and bowed to bid farewell to the two elders.

He turned over and jumped onto the horse, turned his head and raised his hand to the two elders, shaking the rein lightly: "Then—ah——"

Pei Ye let out a scream, as if a red dragon sprang out from his crotch, causing his upper body to stagger, and the body was still heaving violently up and down. The bumps made Pei Ye feel that he was not riding a horse, but a horse. A leopard.

He tried his best to adjust his body shape, and when he turned his head, the two elders were already seven or eight feet away, looking at him with worried faces.

"——Let's go!" Pei Ye waved and shouted the second half of the sentence, turned around and held the reins, bent his knees in stirrups, and with two ups and downs, his body blended into the rhythm of the horse.

Really fast.

Pei Ye had never ridden such a fast horse, nor had he ridden such a "sensitive" horse.

Riding other horses is like drawing a bow. You can draw as much force as you want, and you can run as fast as you give it. Riding this horse is like loosening the string. It is a fully charged bow. You only need to loosen your fingers slightly One click, and it will be ejected with a "bang".

"What a horse!" Pei Ye exclaimed excitedly, pinching the horse's belly, the horse's speed went up to a new level.

Really fast!

A flashing kestrel, a burning flame.

Such a good horse, why do you have to refund two taels of silver!

I'm afraid it is because it eats too much and has a strong temper.

But a horse that has traveled a thousand li has plenty of food and is proud, as it should be.The fierce temperament is not the problem of the horses, it is clearly the problem of their charioteers.

Pei Ye thought with satisfaction, his forehead was flying, as if he was riding on a thunderbolt, and the wind was knocked away by them head-on.
