After dinner, everyone packed up and got back in the car to set off.
The horses ran faster in the afternoon because they no longer had to climb the mountain, and they naturally ran much faster on the road built in the mountains.
When it was getting dark, they hurried to an inn to rest.
Li Mofu's butt was sore from sitting so hard that he felt uncomfortable walking. After getting off the car, several servants led the horses to graze, and the rest either guarded the goods or helped carry things.
"What would you like to eat, sir?" Guozi asked as he helped Li Mofu up to the guest room on the second floor.
Li Mofu took off his shoes and lay down on the bed. "Whatever. What good food can there be in this kind of place? Just don't let it stink."
"Sir, don't fall asleep. I'll get some hot water for you to soak your feet in a while." Guozi said as he opened the door.
Li Mofu waved his hand and closed his eyes.
This post station is indeed in the middle of nowhere, with no village or shop nearby. The surroundings are desolate and there are many bamboo forests. It is said that there are many snakes in the bamboo forests, but they should be hibernating in such a cold weather.
The night fell silently, and the late-returning birds chirped a few times before retreating into their nests.
Li Mofu felt a little cold after lying down for a while, so he got up and shook the quilt. The window was open and he could see the dark woods next to the post station.
He walked over and reached out to close the window. It was really dark all around. The only light was the lanterns hanging at the front and back doors of the post station, which looked very scary.
Exhaling a breath of cold air, Li Mofu left a gap. Only at this moment did he feel like he was leaving the capital.
"dong dong dong"
There was a knock on the door, and Li Mofu had just gotten into bed. "Who is it?"
"Mr. Li, I am Mo Yi." said the person outside the door.
Li Mofu sat up and said, "Oh, come in, the door is not locked."
Mo Yi pushed the door open and came in. He brought up a bucket of water and said, "The waiter downstairs has gone to help with the cooking. Guozi said you were not feeling well and asked me to bring you some hot water."
"Oh, then I'll soak my feet before going to sleep!" Li Mofu climbed out of bed. The hot water was steaming, and at first he couldn't put his feet down immediately. Later, the heat made his feet feel both pleasurable and painful.
Mo Yi didn't go out again, but stood aside and watched.
While his feet were soaking, Guozi came up with the dishes. Li Mofu ate while soaking his feet. After finishing, he rinsed his mouth, washed his face, and went to bed.
He fell asleep soon after he touched the bed.
The next day, I got on the bus as usual. The journey was long, and this was only the second day...
Fortunately, the worries in his mind did not become a reality, and the journey has been smooth so far.
The carriage had already traveled halfway. The further they went, the more trees there were. They also encountered a pack of wolves along the way, but they didn't pounce on them because they were outnumbered.
"Why haven't we found the post station yet?" Li Mofu opened the curtains and looked out. It was dark outside, but they were still driving on the official road.
"I don't know, but the young master didn't stop us from setting up the tent, so there should be an inn ahead." Guozi was also a little worried.
Li Mofu stuck his head out. As soon as the sun went down, the road in the mountains became pitch black, as if it were a ghost. Moreover, this darkness had different levels, with different degrees of darkness. Li Mofu felt nervous.
Although Li Mofu had seen such scenes every day after walking for half a month, this was the first time he had walked until the hour of Xu and still hadn't found the post station.
If there were no post station along this stretch of road, Lu Mingyun would have stopped the team and pitched a tent for the night. But today, they kept driving, which meant there was a post station ahead.
"Tat-tat--"
The only sounds on the official road were the galloping carriages and the rustling of leaves in the wind. Li Mofu's eyes unconsciously looked towards the darkness of the forest, and then he shuddered. "No matter how many times I've seen it, it still feels so scary. Do you think there are ghosts in the woods?"
In such an environment, Guozi was horrified by Li Mofu's words, "Sir! Don't say that. It's so late at night, it's easy to attract evil spirits!"
Li Mofu shuddered again, "What you said is much more terrifying than what I said."
“……”Fruit.
After driving for about another quarter of an hour, a building appeared in front of them, but there were no lights. Li Mofu saw it from a long distance away, and he felt terrified, thinking, is he going to live in this damn place?
