During the horse riding trip, Li Si and He Zhong started chatting. After chatting for a while, the two parties became familiar with each other and relaxed a lot.

Li Si chatted with him and found that this little old man was a very interesting person. He learned from his words that when he was young, he was idle and had a high self-esteem. Fight against injustice. Even in middle age, he had no achievements and no wife.

When he woke up, he was already in his forties. At this age, he had accomplished nothing, and no woman liked him anymore. He could only live on his horse, which he bought with money when he was going to travel.

"I regret it a bit!" He Zhong sighed when he said this, then shook his head and said with a casual smile: "But it's nothing. I've been wandering around for most of my life, and I don't want a mother-in-law to take care of me. Like this It’s okay to play wherever you go, even if you die on the way.”

"Drive~"

After He Zhong finished speaking, he laughed and hit the horse on the butt with a whip, causing the carriage to speed up again.

Li Si pondered slightly. He was a little touched by He Zhong's words, but he didn't know what to say.

At the same time, he wanted to laugh a little in his heart. He would probably have to deal with monsters and ghosts all the time in the future. Getting married and having children would only be a luxury for him, and he would only harm others and himself. He was afraid that he would end up like He Zhong.

Shaking his head slightly, Li Si put this thought aside. He was drunk now, but who can tell what will happen in the future.

However, when the two of them were chatting, they didn't realize that there was a man in a red leather jacket standing on the roof of the carriage with his waist hunched over, with a gloomy face. He walked carefully to the edge of the carriage and slowly stretched out two dead bodies. Cyan palms covered He Zhong's eyes.

…………

"Hey... the old man went the wrong way, this way." On the way, He Zhong suddenly shouted and hurriedly pulled the reins.

"Eh..." The horse neighed and began to take small steps on the spot with its four hooves in a somewhat anxious manner.

Upon seeing this, He Zhong immediately got off the carriage, walked to the horse and gently stroked its hair and neck, humming an unknown ditty.

To Li Si's surprise, the rogue horse quickly calmed down from its anxiety, and he understood that this might be a way to train the horse.

"Ms. Li, I'm sorry. My horse hasn't been out for a while and is a little anxious." After calming the horse, He Zhong looked at Li Si with an apologetic look.

"Nothing." Li Si nodded slightly.

He Zhong then got on the carriage and continued to drive the horse forward.

Li Si looked a little tired on the carriage as the scenery around him continued to retreat.

After all, he didn't sleep well last night. When he felt sleepy, he took out a set of clothes from the book box, put them behind his head, and began to fall asleep.

Immediately afterwards, a boy flew out of Li Si's chest, and the air in the carriage suddenly became a little colder.

He Zhong shivered in front, looked back at Li Si, and saw that he was sleeping soundly, so he gently slapped the horse on the buttocks, and the carriage suddenly slowed down a little and became much more stable.

They were walking through the forest, where the temperature was high in some places and low in other places. So He Zhong didn't take it to heart about the sudden cooling down just now.

The boy in the carriage looked at He Zhong curiously and stared into his eyes. After a while, he lost interest.

After retracting his gaze from He Zhong, he sat next to Li Si and looked at the scenery outside through the window, with a look of joy in his eyes.

As the carriage drove along, the chirping of cicadas and other unknown insects in the forest became louder as the sun became more intense.

After driving for about an hour or two, it was already noon, and the carriage stopped in a place shaded by a big tree.

When the carriage stopped, Li Si leaned forward due to inertia and woke up immediately.

"Ms. Li, let's take a rest and eat something." He Zhong, who was in front, turned back and said to Li Si.

Li Si responded, yawned, stretched, took the dry food and gourd from the book box, and got out of the carriage.

When He Zhong saw Li Si coming down, he wiped a piece of bluestone with a sweat towel, turned around and said to him: "Ms. Li, sit here."

"Uncle He, you're welcome." Li Si smiled at He Zhong, and then sat down on the bluestone.

After he sat down, He Zhong also sat down and said to Li Si while eating dry food: "Further ahead is Jingning County. It takes about three days' drive. There are several private inns along the way. , we can just stay at the nearby Minyi every night during this period."

Li Si nodded slightly and asked He Zhong, "How far is the nearest Minyi Station from us?"

"We can arrive before Xu time today." He Zhong said without thinking.

Hearing what He Zhong said, Li Si nodded and continued to eat solid food.

"Suosuo..." Suddenly, a thin voice came from this time.

Li Si looked towards the sound and saw a dark brown snake swimming in the grass behind him.

When he saw the snake, he was startled and stood up immediately.

At this time, He Zhong also saw the snake. He immediately put down the dry food in his hand, took three steps and two steps, and caught up with the snake. He slapped the snake's head quickly and pressed the snake's head to the ground.

After the snake's head pressed to the ground, the snake's body began to curl up.

After He Zhong suppressed the snake's head, he slowly contracted his palm to pinch the snake's neck, and at the same time grabbed the snake's tail with his other hand.

Li Si couldn't help but look at him a few more times. With such a fast reaction speed, it was obvious that he had practiced a lot when he was a ranger.

"Hey, you're lucky. This black snake weighs more than a kilogram. You can eat meat today." After catching the snake, He Zhong smiled, walked to the back of the carriage, and took out a small bamboo basket from the debris. Put it in.

After putting the snake into the bamboo basket, He Zhong put the lid on, smiled at Li Si and explained: "Xianggong Li, the Minyi in front are just ordinary wild vegetables, and they don't have any meaty taste."

"But now that we have this black snake, we can just ask the cook at Minyi to smother it with green peppers. I'll get more for you then."

"No, I don't like eating snakes." Li Si smiled apologetically and continued to eat dry food. He really had no desire for this game.

He Zhong scratched his head in embarrassment. Suddenly he seemed to see something, so he pointed in a direction and shouted in surprise: "Ms. Li, look at what's over there."

Li Si was a little strange, so he turned his head and looked carefully in the direction of He Zhong, but he saw a peach forest on the other side of the small forest on the roadside. There are many peach trees, and you can still see the peaches on the trees from here.

Because it had rained before, the peaches were still stained with rainwater, making them look extremely attractive and delicious.

These peach trees were previously blocked by trees on the roadside, otherwise such a large peach forest would have been discovered by them long ago.

Li Si and He Zhong looked at the peach and then at the dry food, and suddenly felt that the dry food tasted like chewing wax.

At the same time, Li Si also felt a little surprised. There must be peach trees in this peach forest, and perhaps the magic weapon to ward off evil spirits would be available in the future.
