Chapter 720 Fireworks

Zhang Awei said again: "Remember, don't be afraid of anyone, don't be afraid of anything, remember?" He thought of his former self, who was afraid of everything, and how embarrassing it would be to be embarrassed. Although he experienced various things later, he gradually changed. I have to be bold and no longer afraid, but those days will never be forgotten and I don’t want to think of them easily.

The children replied, "Remember." The voices were loud and quiet. Zhang Ain asked again: "Louder, do you remember?" "Remember!" Regardless of whether they were four or ten years old, they all responded in unison at the same time. Although their voices were childish, they were full of determination.

Zhang Ain repeated: "Remember, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

"Remember!" the children shouted again and again more firmly. At this moment, they are not afraid of being kidnapped, they are not afraid of losing their parents, and they are not afraid even if they never see their parents and have no home!

The children's chorus of answers stunned the road sergeant. What do you mean? Playing pre-war mobilization in front of us? Still mobilizing with a group of children, can you still look down on us? The soldiers were so angry that they wanted to rush over and kill him. However, their anger was only directed at Zhang Xin, and they did not want to embarrass the children.

Zhang was afraid that he would notice the murderous intention of the other party, so he said that it was okay, at least he was better than the generals. They also wanted to arrest the child and threaten me. He raised the hard iron knife in his hand and slashed lightly to the side where there was no one around. A ditch of more than ten meters was immediately opened on the ground. He took back the knife and said coldly: "I don't want to kill you, get out of the way."

The power of a sword can break the ground more than ten meters long? No matter how stupid you are, you know that Zhang is not easy to mess with, but due to military orders, no one among the more than a hundred soldiers retreated.

Zhang was helpless, why did he always give in to ordinary people? With a wave of his hand, the cavalry turned around and headed back the way they came. He was at the back holding up a big sword and said, "I just want to advise you not to chase them." After saying that, he turned his horse's head and followed the cavalry team slowly away.

Seeing Zhang Feng's bravery, the small colonel did not dare to issue an attack order rashly and hurried back to the camp to report to the general. Not long after, the bell rang, and a group of cavalry ran out of the camp and stopped in front of a long trench of more than ten meters. The leader was a strong man in his forties. He looked at the long trench and asked: "Is this the result of his sword?" Wei?"

The primary school around me quickly said yes. The strong man turned his head to look at the cavalry that was slowly marching in the distance. He thought for a while and then ordered: "No need to be whipped anymore. Let him go and recover." He was talking about the general on the wooden frame, and then waved his hand. He ordered the sergeants in front to close the team, looked up at the sky, estimated the time, and rode back to camp.

Zhang was afraid that he would not embarrass a group of soldiers who were following orders, so he decided to return to the city wall, pass through the city and go east, taking a slight detour. After walking for a while, I realized that the children were very talented in riding horses, so they put away the carriage and Shadow Tiger, let the horses slowly increase their speed, and trotted back all the way.

Both children and horses have taken the Marrow Pill, and their bodies are much stronger than the same kind. After getting along with each other for a day, the horses and humans have become more in harmony with each other. Especially a group of children, who weigh nothing themselves, but the horses have improved their bodies and can carry heavier things. It is not strenuous to run on empty, and the speed is not fast, so naturally they will not be tired.

The fifteen miles of walking was a little faster, and we soon entered the city gate. The guard guard looked at it and wondered why the murderer was back again. Everyone knew that he was a murderer, but no one dared to arrest him. One by one, they retreated far away, fearing that they would be killed.

Zhang Awei led the team into the city, checked the time, and brought the horse team to a stop in front of the restaurant where they had eaten two days ago. The waiter in front of the door saw, Oh my God, the uncle who caused trouble is back again, and he stepped forward to say hello with a grimace. Zhang Ain said: "Don't open the business tonight, I'll take care of it." He turned around to greet the child: "Get off your horse."

A group of children are really fierce. No matter how big or small, they all have to turn over and jump down, but their movements are not smooth. Fortunately, the horse was smart enough to kneel down on its front hooves in advance to allow the children to get to the ground safely. Zhang Awei was startled and asked the child who took the lead to jump down: "What are you doing?" The child raised his head and replied: "We are not afraid of anything."

Zhang is afraid of being depressed, aren't you afraid? This is stupid. Bring your children to eat in the store.

He came a little early, and there was no one in the store since it was not the time for dinner. Zhang was afraid to talk to the cashier at the counter: "Cook as many dishes as there are on the menu. You don't want soup, but everything else. Whether it's hot or cold, or meat, bring them all in a food box for me, and then serve them all." The table is ready, let's eat first." As he spoke, he threw out two ingots of gold, a total of forty taels. He didn't know how to cook, so he couldn't fool the children with dried meat all the time, so he bought more ready-made dishes and prepared them.

"Okay." The cashier collected the gold and went to the kitchen to give instructions. Here there were waiters serving tea and towels.

The meal lasted until midnight, the dishes in the menu were stir-fried for the tenth time, and various food boxes were piled up in the lobby of the restaurant. The cashier came over and said, "Sir, we can't stir-fry anymore. There are not enough plates to hold the dishes."

Zhang was afraid that he would let the accountant settle the accounts. The accountant was fiddling with the abacus for a while, and then said: "The money given by the guest officer is enough, there is still more..." The following words were interrupted by Zhang Awei: "That's enough. Bring two more barrels of wine, and you can go together. "Send the cashier and the clerk away together.

I checked the account carefully, worried that something might happen, so I locked the counter drawer first and then walked back slowly, paying attention to Zhang Wei's movements as I walked. Zhang was afraid that he would not pay attention, so he quickly put away all the food boxes and said to the child: "Let's go."

When the children saw that the food boxes everywhere suddenly disappeared, they were all surprised. They dragged Zhang Ain and said, "Just do a trick, do a trick." As soon as they made a fuss, the cashier ran back, first checked the counter, everything was normal, and then raised his head. Looking frightened, Zhang realized that all the food boxes on the ground were gone, and he opened his mouth wide in disbelief.

The horses were waiting outside, lined up in pairs on the street, attracting passers-by to look at them again and again. Seeing that there was no bridle, a greedy person wanted to take one away, but he was stopped as soon as he approached, and whispered to him: "The horse of the God of Killing, don't move if you don't want to die."

Last night, he killed 35 people with a knife. The name of the God of Killing spread throughout the city, and no one dared to provoke him.

Zhang Pa just smiled when he heard this, and after the child got on the horse, he went out of the city to the east. The waiter chased after him with a wine barrel, panting and shouting: "Sir, your wine." Zhang Pa said: "It's a reward for you." He rode away.

The horse team had to leave the city. It was supposed to send the children back to Tianlei Mountain before going to the border between Yue and Wu, but these children were very clingy and didn't want to leave their sight at all times. They watched them closely all day long. Knowing that they were afraid of being abandoned again, Zhang Pa felt sorry in his heart and couldn't bear to make them sad, so he took them south with him.

It was midnight. Zhang Pa secretly took out a piece of jade and asked the children to stop and look up. The children looked up. The sky was dark with a few stars occasionally, but they could not see how beautiful it was. Just as they were wondering, they suddenly saw a white light rising into the sky, climbing high, and bursting with a bang, scattering stars all over the sky. The bright spots were all in front of them, and then they gently scattered and fell, as if they could fall to their side.

The children screamed and turned to look at Zhang Pa, guessing that he was the trick, but Zhang Pa looked back with an innocent look on his face, so the children were not sure, maybe it was not the big brother who did it? Turned their heads to continue looking at the stars.

The starlight only lasted for a while, slowly falling from the sky, and flew over their heads. They thought that if they waited a little longer, the stars would fall to their side, but at this moment, the stars disappeared.

The children were a little disappointed that they did not catch the stars, but the beauty was very exciting, so they looked up and looked around. There are always clever ghosts. When others were looking at the sky, they stared at Zhang Pa.

Zhang Pa knew he was being watched, so he refused to take out the jade piece and just sat there without saying anything. When the children finally lost their patience and wanted to urge the horses to move forward, Zhang Pa threw another jade piece and said, "Here we go again."

This time, the sky was not full of stars, but bright rainbows that stretched across the night sky, from one end to the other, shining and falling from high to low, a different kind of beauty.

The children looked up and waited for the rainbow to dissipate. They stopped riding and jumped down to surround Zhang Pa and shouted, "You made it, you made it, don't lie, I want to play." They all chirped and shouted, and Zhang Pa laughed, "Line up, five each, and they'll be gone once you let them go."

The children lined up obediently, and after receiving their five jade pieces, they held them tightly in their hands, reluctant to let them go. There were only five, and one less piece would be let go, but they encouraged others, "Go ahead and let them go, go ahead and let them go."

A clever ghost asked Zhang Pa, "Brother, how do you let them go?" Zhang Pa said, "Just throw them up into the sky." The clever ghost said, "I don't know how, brother, show me how." "Yes, teach us." When there are suggestions, there are people who make trouble.

Zhang Pa laughed, took out three at once, and said, "Look carefully." He raised his hand and flicked it, and three white lights rose into the night sky in a triangular shape, exploding one by one in the darkness, shining a bright light, which was dazzling and dragging, scattered or gathered, and flashed a piece of fireworks, connected to each other, making the night sky also have the brilliance of the day.

"So beautiful." Finally, a child couldn't help it and threw the jade piece in his hand, so the night sky was lit up again, and the beauty shone that night, making every child's face full of joy. Seeing their joy, Zhang Pa was also happy.

After playing for a while, he asked the children to line up on the horse, took out the thin sticks like chopsticks, and let them hold them in their palms after distributing them. The other hand flicked the tip of the stick, and a colorful light flashed, jumping in the children's hands.

Zhang Pa raised his right hand and said, "Let's go." Every child held up the colorful light, rode forward, dragged a colorful dragon in the night, and headed east.

This place is not too far from the southeast pass. Starting from the pass that day, it can reach the lower reaches of Ninghe River in two days. Although it is located in the upper reaches of Ninghe River, it takes a long detour, but if you ride slowly on horseback, you can always reach it in about four days.

Zhang Pa took advantage of the children's play to increase the speed of the horse team a little bit, and strive to reach the pass earlier. It's a pity that Feizhi can't fit the horses, otherwise this trip would be much simpler.

This way, we ran and stopped, and the speed was not slow. Including the time for eating and resting, we were close to the border in three days. From a distance, we can see military camps and tents standing in the wide area ahead, with fences and chevaux de frise outside, forming a large military camp.
