Monk Fang was stunned, looked across at him, and said nothing more.
Yingbao ate two pieces of dry food, wrapped herself in a cotton coat, closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. In fact, she was communicating with Xuanwu and asking about the situation in this world.
Nothing happened that night and the snow stopped the next day.
Yingbao didn't dare to fall into a deep sleep. She just took a short rest and got up as soon as the sun rose.
Unexpectedly, the monk named Fang was able to stand up, but his leg was still a little lame.
The others also stood at the temple gate, looking outside. Seeing that the snow was half knee-deep, they hesitated whether to continue their journey.
But if we don't leave, the food we bring is limited and won't last for a few days.
As he was hesitating, he suddenly heard the middle-aged man ask, "Are you also planning to go to the capital?"
The eldest brother of the Sheng family turned his head, took a look and nodded.
"I am also going to the capital. Could you please give me a ride? I will reward you handsomely when we get there." In fact, Monk Fang wanted the little girl to give her a ride, but she ignored him.
Boss Sheng thought for a moment and asked, "Sir, are you from Beijing?"
Monk Fang nodded and said, "Yes, I am from the Rui Palace in the capital. I stayed in this temple after returning from an official business trip. As a result, I encountered a group of warriors fighting in the middle of the night, and the fight spread to the fish pond, and I was buried under the stone statue."
When Boss Sheng heard this, he showed fear on his face: "Are there warriors fighting here?" Some warriors are very domineering. If anyone provokes them, he will definitely die a miserable death.
"They were just passing by and have left." Those people seemed to be warriors who went to the mountains to collect spiritual medicine. They fought because of uneven distribution and destroyed the stone statue. I was squatting under the stone statue to rest, and I was buried before I could dodge.
Boss Sheng felt relieved and turned to discuss with his brother: "This person said he is from the Rui Palace in the capital. Let's send him back. What do you think..."
"Then I'll send it, it's just on my way." Sheng Lao Er thought: It won't be a big loss for us anyway, so I'll just send it.
Boss Sheng was a little embarrassed and whispered, "It's so difficult to walk outside, who can carry it?"
Not to mention the deep snow, even if there was no snow, they would be exhausted to death carrying him all the way.
"Don't we have our little sister? She is strong, so just let her carry her." Sheng Lao Er said nonchalantly.
The woman next to him hurriedly said, "My little sister is gone!"
Everyone turned their heads and saw that the idiot, wearing a men's jacket, had walked a long way away.
"Little sister! Come back!" The second and the eldest Sheng were anxious and shouted loudly, but the little figure disappeared after turning a corner.
...
Yingbao walked quickly and soon avoided the group of people.
She asked Xuanwu while correcting the direction.
I don’t know how long I walked before I saw a village. There were a few children playing in the snow at the door.
Yingbao walked over and asked a child, "Who here has a horse? I want to hire a carriage."
The child looked at her for a while and then ran back home.
After a while, a villager came out and asked: "You want to hire a carriage?"
Yingbao nodded: "Yes." She actually wanted to buy a horse, but farmers were reluctant to sell horses unless the price was high.
But once you offer a high price, it is likely to attract coveted attention, and you might be plotted against before you even leave the village.
She didn't know much about the world, so she thought it was better to do less and could only ask for hiring a car.
"Where are you going?" the villagers asked.
Yingbao estimated the direction, "Beijing." That place is not far from Beijing, so let's just say we are going to Beijing for now.
The villager looked the girl up and down, stroked his chin and said, "If we go to the capital, it will cost fifty taels of silver per trip."
Yingbao: "Sure, but I only have five taels. When we get to the capital, my father will give you the remaining forty-five taels."
The villagers expressed disbelief: "What if your father doesn't give it to you?"
Yingbao picked up a piece of wood that a child had dropped on the ground, and crushed it with all her strength, breaking it into pieces: "My father runs an escort agency in the capital, and he is the most trustworthy person."
When the villagers saw the skinny girl crush the thick wood with her bare hands, they were surprised and began to believe her words.
If one does not have financial resources, who can spend a lot of money to buy elixirs just to open the meridians for a little girl, and let her train her body and practice martial arts
"Okay! Deal!" The villagers finally made up their minds to do this business.
The capital city is over a hundred miles away from here. As long as you walk fast, you can get there in two days at most. You can earn fifty taels in two days. If I don’t do it, I guess many people in the village will rush to do it.
So, Yingbao got on a tall carriage.
The horses in this world were very tall, and she was not even as tall as their backs when she stood upright.
The carriage was also very tall, and its huge wheels spun rapidly, splashing up a cloud of snow and mist.
It was just that the road was too bumpy, shaking her all over.
Fortunately, the carriage was covered with a blanket made of unknown fur, and there was thick straw underneath the blanket, so people were not shaken to pieces.
Two days later, the carriage finally arrived at the gate of the capital.
The city walls of the capital are extremely tall, towering into the clouds.
Countless strange monsters pulled exquisite vehicles in and out. The villagers turned their heads and said, "It costs one hundred copper coins to bring a carriage into the city. You must pay for this."
Yingbao nodded, took out a small ingot of silver and handed it over: "This is five taels, take it first, and I'll give it to you after we enter the city."
Silver ingots in the shape of ingots are commonly used everywhere and are made of precious metals. The villager took it and bit it with his teeth. When he saw the tooth marks, he put it in his pocket and took out a hundred copper coins to pay the city entrance fee.
After the carriage entered the city, the driver kept asking where the escort agency was.
Ying Bao asked him to stop in front of a shop and took out nine silver ingots and gave them to him: "Here, money for hiring a car."
The driver was stunned for a moment, then smiled, took the silver and checked it one by one, put it all in his pocket, and asked, "Where is the remaining 100 coins?"
Yingbao took out a hundred copper coins and handed them over.
The driver took it, looked at it, and asked curiously, "Why is the pattern on it different from mine?"
"I'm ignorant." Yingbao said seriously, "We all use this money."
The driver seemed to be unconvinced, but he still put the copper coin away, whipped the horse and left.
Yingbao watched him walk away before walking into the shop.
This shop is magnificent with carved beams and painted buildings. There are two stone beasts standing in front of the door. At first glance, it looks like the residence of a royal palace.
Stepping up the stairs, Yingbao walked into the shop and saw a row of tall red-painted counters.
There are various objects placed on the shelves in the counter, including unknown flowers, herbs, animals bones, etc.
After looking around, Ying Bao asked, "Do you have any body-building medicine prescriptions for sale?"
The waiter glanced at her and asked, "What grade is it?"
Yingbao: "How many items do you have in your family?"
"We have grades from one to nine." The grade of a prescription is the same as the medicinal materials. The higher the grade, the more precious it is and the more expensive it is.
"How much is the third-grade medicine?" Ying Bao asked. In fact, she wanted to ask about the ninth-grade medicine prescription.
The waiter said, "A third-grade prescription costs one hundred taels of silver. If you buy a full set of herbs, the third-grade prescription is free."
Ying Bao was shocked, and after thinking for a while, she asked again: "How much does it cost to buy a set of medicinal materials? What level of spiritual medicine is it?"
The waiter rolled his eyes at her and said, "You bought a third-grade prescription, so what level of spiritual medicine do you want to use? Of course, the primary one!"
He showed impatience and said, "A set of third-grade prescriptions, plus a set of medicinal materials, will cost a total of five hundred gold."
Five hundred gold converted into silver is five thousand taels of silver.
Yingbao walked out of the shop silently, carrying two body-building medicinal formulas she had just bought, one level three and one level five, which cost her a total of five hundred taels of silver. Afterwards, she went to the bookstore and bought several books on elixir encyclopedias, all of which were covered with colorful illustrations that looked very lifelike.
These spiritual medicines not only include illustrations of spiritual plants, but also illustrations of animals, bones and shells, minerals, etc.
Fortunately, she had the basic knowledge to identify medicinal materials and could recognize many herbs.
Afterwards, Yingbao went to the horse market and bought a tall horse, as well as a saddle, a shovel, a chisel, an axe, a rope, etc.
Without further ado, Yingbao bought some cooked food and warm things, wrapped herself tightly, left the capital on horseback, and headed straight for her destination dozens of miles away.
This horse was very powerful. It took only more than an hour to travel dozens of miles.
Yingbao tightened the reins, looked at the mountains in front of him, and couldn't help frowning.
There is a faintly visible temple on the mountain, which is magnificent and tall, with pilgrims coming and going constantly.
How do we get the fragments? Do we have to smash the statue in front of many people
