Gu Jiao guessed that this admission document was for Gu Jiao with her toes.
"Why didn't you come up with Jiaojiao's admission documents earlier?"
If it wasn't for the little monk who was only five years old, he would have suspected that this guy was doing it on purpose!
Xiao Jingkong was wronged: "You didn't ask!"
"That's not..." Are you asleep? The more Xiao Heng thought about it, the more angry he became, "Why don't you put Jiaojiao's documents with ours?"
Xiao Jingkong said confidently: "Of course you can't put Jiaojiao's things with you stinky men!"
Xiao Heng sneered: "Oh, it seems that you are not yourself."
Xiao Jingkong was stunned.
Uh... I seem to have slandered myself...
Xiao Heng looked at the beautifully handwritten admissions document, and at the end there was a shy and lovely little pink lotus flower woven with silk yarn. He was in a bad mood!
…
Yan State is in the west of Zhao State, separated by a Yanshui River.
Gu Jiao took the admission documents of several people and the customs clearance route given by her aunt to guide a rented boat out of the border of Zhao Kingdom.
There were a total of five people on the trip. Apart from her, Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun, Nan Shi Niang and Lu Shifu were also in the group.
Gu Jiao still didn't ask much about their identities and origins, but there was one thing that Gu Jiao understood very well. They traveled thousands of miles for Gu Yan's sake.
"Okay, let's eat something, it's time to go ashore in half an hour." Nan Shi Niang said.
They rented a large awning boat with a bed board, table and chairs, and the curtains were lowered like a small wing room. At this time, except for Master Lu, who was outside to observe the situation, the other four were inside the awning.
It is worth mentioning that since the capital of Zhao Kingdom was launched, Nan Shi Niang and Master Lu stopped speaking Zhao Guo dialect, and they communicated with each other and Gu Jiao in Yan Guo dialect.
Sister Gu Jiao was confused from the beginning, and now simple communication is basically no problem.
"Okay." Gu Jiao replied in Yan Guo dialect, "After eating the jerky, there are still some snacks left. Let's fill it up first. Xiao Shun!"
"Hey, sister!" Gu Xiaoshun replied.
"Speak the language of Yan country." Nan Shi Niang reminded.
Gu Xiaoshun scratched his head in embarrassment: "Oh, I see."
Gu Jiao opened the food box and asked Gu Xiaoshun to bring a package of snacks to Master Lu.
Then she put the rest into a large plate and put it on the table.
She looked at Gu Yan who was leaning on her back and asked, "How do you feel? Are you seasick?"
Gu Yan shook his head slightly, his pale lips moved slightly: "No dizzy."
Gu Jiao raised her hand and touched his forehead.
Since Gu Yan was rescued last time, he woke up in the carriage the next night, but in the end, his body was not as good as before, and he was always weak and extremely weak.
Every time Gu Jiao saw Gu Yan like this, she would think of Nangong Li who vented her anger on him and slapped him.
That's right, after knowing the face and figure of the other party from Gu Yan's mouth, Gu Jiao was already able to determine that the man who was insane was Nangong Li.
Gu Yan just accidentally bumped into him, and he vented his anger and severely injured Gu Yan.
He didn't know that with this palm down, even if Gu Yan didn't have a heart attack, he would stay at home for half a month
Besides, he suddenly sneaked into the academy himself, causing Gu Yan to bump into him.
Why is this man so unreasonable
Also, if you were reasonable, you wouldn't have done the secret assassination of the Zhao Kingdom.
Gu Jiao fed Gu Yan a piece of dessert, and when she took the second piece, Gu Yan turned her face away and refused.
"Drink some water." Gu Jiao didn't force him to eat.
After Gu Yan drank two sips of warm water, she leaned on Gu Jiao's back and fell asleep.
After going ashore, there is still a road that must be walked on foot.
Gu Jiao got off the boat with Gu Yan on her back.
Nan Shi Niang led the way, Master Lu and Gu Xiaoshun took luggage and weapons to follow.
Gu Yan lay on her sister's back and said weakly, "I'll go by myself."
Gu Jiaobu was very determined: "No, I'll carry you."
I am not tired.
As long as I carry you on my back, I won't get tired no matter how far I go.
With the scorching sun in the sky, Gu Jiao was wearing a teenage t-shirt, and she was sweating as she walked with Gu Yan on her back.
There are a lot of people at the entry checkpoint, but the reputation of Tianqiong Academy is too great. As soon as I saw the stack of inky blue admission documents, the attitude of the officials changed. The way to go.
The group successfully set foot on the territory of Yan Kingdom.
The customs and customs of the State of Yan are very different from those of the State of Zhao, except that several people were busy taking care of Gu Yan along the way and had no time to appreciate the scenery along the way.
After another month of exhaustion, I finally arrived at the last inn near Shengdu in the evening when the sun was sinking.
Shengdu, the capital of Yan Kingdom.
Gu Jiao and his party used two carriages. On weekdays, Gu Jiao, Gu Xiaoshun and Master Lu took turns driving the carriage.
After arriving at the inn, Gu Jiao jumped from the carriage and dismounted.
Nan Shi Niang lifted the curtain and stepped out of the carriage with the help of Master Lu.
They had traveled for two full months. It was the fifth month of the lunar calendar. The weather was hot, and several people were soaked wet. Even the weak Gu Yan was sweating a lot in the carriage.
Nan Shi Niang wiped her sweat and said to Gu Jiao, "Sit down for a while, and I'll reserve a guest room."
"I'm not tired." Gu Jiao said.
"You child." Nan Shi Niang looked at her sweaty face and took out a clean handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead and neck.
Gu Xiaoshun called the guys at the inn, handed the horse to them to feed, and went to the lobby to ask for three more guest rooms.
The inns in the state of Yan are generally larger than those in the state of Zhao, and the guest rooms are more elaborate. It is true that the price is also more expensive.
The currency of the State of Yan is also mainly made of silver and knife coins. The knife coins are actually copper coins, but they are made into the shape of a knife and engraved with the emblem of the State of Yan.
One dollar coin is worth about three copper plates.
In Zhao State, a steamed bun is a copper plate, and in Yan State, a steamed bun is a dollar coin.
It can be seen that the price of Yan State is higher than that of Zhao State.
There is no transnational bank in the six countries. Fortunately, gold and silver can be circulated anywhere. After entering the country, they exchanged a few boxes of gold with silver notes and deposited them in the largest bank in the country, and the silver was also exchanged for Yan. The official silver of the country.
Not to mention the expensive handling fee.
Gu Jiao carried Gu Yan to the second floor wing, Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun shared a room, Nan Shi Niang and Lu Shi Fu shared a room, and Gu Jiao was alone.
Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun's house is in the middle.
Dinner was served in Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun's house.
Yan Guo's dishes are different from Zhao Guo's, they are not spicy.
Fortunately, several people are not picky eaters, Gu Yan is a picky eater, but now that he is so sick, he doesn't dare to give him spicy food.
At the dinner table, Nan Shi Niang said, "Tomorrow we will be able to go to Shengdu. You go to the academy to report first. Xiaoshun and his adoptive father will go to find a suitable accommodation nearby."
Gu Jiao has no opinion.
Nan Shi Niang said again: "rest early tonight."
After a few people had eaten, they went back to their respective houses.
Gu Jiao would check on Gu Yan every night at Hai Shi, but before the hour came, she simply went down to check the carriages and horses.
I don't know if I don't check, but I found that one of their carriages was overworked, and the wheels and the bottom of the carriage were cracked.
She went to the lobby and asked Yicheng to buy a new carriage.
The postmaster said, "Young Master Xiao is so lucky, we just happen to have the last carriage at our post!"
Gu Jiao dressed as a teenager, and spoke in a youthful voice she learned from Gu Chengfeng.
But her appearance has not changed, and there is still a red birthmark on her left face.
The reason why Yicheng doesn't judge people by appearance is also thanks to her status as a student of Tianqiong Academy.
"It's work." Gu Jiao said.
"It's two taels of silver in total," said the Yicheng.
Gu Jiao took out two taels of silver from the purse.
The courier was about to accept it, when suddenly there was a rush of hooves outside the door, and a splendid carriage stopped at the door of the inn.
The curtain of the car was lifted, and a girl in pink wearing a veil jumped out of the car lightly.
When the postman saw the outfits of the guards, he froze all over, showing a very excited look.
The pink-clothed girl walked in briskly with a whip in her hand, without looking at anyone else, she said to the Yicheng: "Give me a carriage! Match two good horses!"
"This..." Yi Cheng looked at Gu Jiao embarrassedly, and silently retracted the hand that was reaching out to receive the silver.
"What are you dawdling at?" the girl in pink asked.
The courier pointed at Gu Jiao embarrassingly, and said, "Finally... a carriage... This little boy... also wants it."
The girl in pink turned to look at Gu Jiao. Seeing that the other party was a crippled young man, she couldn't help but feel a little more contempt: "You give it to me! I'll compensate you!"
Gu Yan's life is counting down every day. What Gu Jiao wants is not money, but to enter the operating room in Shengdu as soon as possible to find and cure Gu Yan.
Gu Jiao said lightly, "No."
After saying that, she placed the silver on Yicheng's table forcefully.
The girl in pink akimbo hummed, "Don't toast, don't eat and drink fine!"
The postman whispered to Gu Jiao: "Xiao, Young Master Xiao, they are from the Su family... This person must be the daughter of the Su family... You... If you don't... let her... "
Although the student status of Tianqiong Academy is honorable, the Su family is the ninth-ranked hairpin family in the Yan Kingdom, and their status in Shengdu is very important, and not just anyone can afford it.
"I said, no."
"You!" the girl in pink hummed, "Believe it or not, I'll hit you!"
Gu Jiao said without fear: "If you dare to hit me, I will hit you."
The girl in pink slapped her whip and threw her whip over. The Yicheng was so frightened that his color changed, and he hurriedly squatted down with his head in his arms!
However, the whip didn't even touch a single strand of Gu Jiao's hair, and was easily grabbed by Gu Jiao.
The girl in pink was startled, as if she didn't expect this unremarkable appearance... No, it should be said that the young man with a crippled face was so powerful that he even caught her whip!
She tried to pull the whip back, but couldn't.
She gritted her teeth: "You... you let go!"
Gu Jiao let go lightly.
She didn't expect Gu Jiao to let go so quickly. She was pulling back when she suddenly fell to the ground with a loud slam. The pain made her face pale, and the whip flew out.
She was so angry that she grabbed the whip and got up, and called Gu Jiao again.
"stop!"
Suddenly there was a man's low voice from the carriage.
The girl in pink froze.
"Come back." The man in the carriage said, his voice not loud, but his tone could not refuse.
The girl in pink glared at Gu Jiao unwillingly: "You wait for me, I remember you! Don't ask me to see you in the future, or I will see you once and hit you once!"
Gu Jiao ignored her threat and asked Yi Cheng to take her to get the last carriage.
After finishing her work, Gu Jiao planned to go upstairs, when suddenly on the other side of the lobby, a young man dressed as a scholar waved to her.
"Brother! Yes! It's here!"
Gu Jiao gave him a strange look: "You called me?"
The young man nodded, seeing that Gu Jiao didn't mean to come, he simply stood up and walked towards Gu Jiao.
The two of them were standing at the entrance of the stairs. At this time, a guest was coming down, and they both gave way to the side.
The young man cupped his hands at Gu Jiao, and said a little excitedly: "The next name is Zhong, the name is the name, and the character is Heming. If Xiongtai doesn't mind calling me Zhong Heming, it's fine."
Zhongming Dingshi Home, the name is really interesting.
Gu Jiao said, "Anything with me?"
Zhong Ding said: "Ah, I came behind you. I saw you took out the documents of Tianqiong Academy. You are also a student of Tianqiong Academy."
Gu Jiao looked at him: "You too?"
"I am!" Zhong Ding said excitedly, and then, as if afraid that Gu Jiao would not believe it, he hurriedly took out his admission documents from his arms, "I am from Zhao State, you are..."
Gu Jiao said calmly, "People from Zhao Kingdom."
A trace of consternation flashed in Zhong Ding's eyes, he wanted to say something, he hesitated, smiled, and asked, "Is it the first time to come to Yan country? Can I ask Xiongtai's name?"
"Xiao Liulang." Gu Jiao said.
Zhong Ding smiled: "Liulang, this name is good and catchy."
God was chatted to death.
Gu Jiao went upstairs.
"Hey—" Zhong Ding saw that she was leaving again, he hesitated for a while, but still summoned the courage to express his surprise, "You are not from China, so how dare you provoke that girl? You didn't see that she was from the Su family. Is it? If the one in the carriage hadn't spoken out in time to stop it, you would have been miserable right now."
"Are you finished?"
"Uh-huh."
Then Gu Jiao went upstairs.
Zhong Ding: "… "
