After handling the soldiers' bodies and waiting for another two days, the road was easier to go. Prince Jing ordered the brigade to go on the road.
"Hey, I've been resting here for several days. I feel my bones are getting lazy." Prince Jing yawned.
The Four Eyed Taoist priest and others looked very serious, with two guards on one side and two guards on both sides of the carriage. They didn't dare to neglect at all.
The previous coffin was useless, the gold paint was broken, and the lid of the coffin was put on it.
Originally, Prince Jing planned to dismantle the four wooden beds and make a coffin board temporarily. As a result, the four eyes were furious when they heard the speech and refused to sell their own bed board.
"Lord, it won't be long before you go north to see the town. There is a coffin shop where you can rebuild a coffin. If you really can't, you can deal with the place first and then let the craftsman build it." Si Mu suggested.
Lord Jing said, "but now the weather is wet and hot. I'm afraid the body stinks when it comes to the place."
The four eyes opened and said with a big smile, "you officials really don't understand anything. Let me explain it to you. The corpses have been burned black by lightning, which is equivalent to treating the corpses to prevent decay. Don't mention the two-month journey, even if it lasts for half a year."
"In that case, do as the Taoist priest says. If you can't meet a skilled craftsman in the next town, wait until the place."
In a word, it will save the brigade a lot of trouble. Don't bother to take care of the prince's body. Now everyone's common idea is that as long as it doesn't rain and thunder don't revive the body.
The poisonous insects have been completely eaten up by Xiao Ruan, so Tian Yuqiao is no longer worried about dead bodies jumping up and hurting people. But now she still can't rest assured, because behind those poisonous insects is the new hu man wizard.
The former great wizard was killed by aunt Shendiao's self explosion. Now she doesn't want to pay so much on her side, because it's not worth it.
So far, she hasn't seen the mysterious new wizard. Now the poisonous insect has followed him all the way. If the other party is not a fool, he will infer that these people are going to Nanshan Temple.
Now Tian Yuqiao only hopes that huikong and Huang Banxian, two old guys over there in Nanshan Temple, can help resist the great wizard at that time.
If the great wizard doesn't do it himself, it's best. If he does, he doesn't know what means he will use.
After walking for another three days, I saw a small town.
Prince Jing quickly ordered his men to go to the city to replenish supplies.
All the officials of the etiquette department took people to buy separately, because they ate dry food these days, and their dry food had been almost consumed.
Especially with the addition of four eyes, the appetite of these people is really not ordinary. One can top several.
This is Fengyang town. There are mostly mountain forests nearby, and the most growing trees on the mountain are maple and poplar, so the town is named Fengyang.
Since they are all engaged in the timber business, most of the streets are carpenter shops. Many of them sell furniture. Of course, there are several coffin shops.
Those who planned to buy grain soon came back with a bitter face and reported to Lord Jing: "Lord, the lower officer's legs are going to be thin, but I just can't find anyone to sell grain."
Another official soon came back and said to Prince Jing, "prince, it seems that there are only timber sellers here. It's easy to say the coffin of the Grand Prince, but our supplies are gone."
Taoist priest four eyes stepped forward and said, "it's easy to do this. You have so many soldiers and horses. Here are mountains and forests. It's not over to let them go hunting at that time!"
"Hunting
Not only was Prince Jing stupid, but even those officials were somewhat hoodwinked.
To say, most of these people are people from the Ministry of rites. What they are best at is all kinds of etiquette activities. Let them go hunting. It's better to just wait for pie to fall from the sky.
The soldiers brought by Prince Jing have this ability, as well as the guards in his house. But there's no reason to do that, because it's against the rules.
Fortunately, the food is still enough for two days, and everyone is not in a hurry.
First I found a farmhouse to live in, but they only took in those officials. As for soldiers and honor guards, they didn't care at all. You can't give money. It's not that big.
Tian Yuqiao smiled and asked the woman, "aunt, why can't you buy anything else here?"
The woman said, "Hey, bandits often appear here. They rob everything, but they don't rob the wood. Originally, like other towns, we sold everything in the street. Bandits have been rampant in the past two years, so we grow our own food."
"No wonder you can't buy food everywhere. I see."
The official who ordered the coffin over there soon ran back with a smile, which was the only good thing. The coffin can be made in about three days. As long as they are given enough gold, they can also find eight layers of gold powder to brush the coffin.
In this way, it was almost the same as the previous coffin. Therefore, Prince Jing was very satisfied and drank two more glasses of wine in the evening.
They live here because they are officials.
The biggest local official is the chief officer. Because he has never seen an official in the Imperial City, the biggest official in the simple old man's heart is the county magistrate.
Because Prince Jing didn't disturb the government, the county magistrate didn't dare to meet him even though he knew that the prince had arrived in his jurisdiction.
Now King Jing also has no way, so he sent someone to the county to buy food.
Three days later, with sufficient food and grass, the brigade continued to go north.
However, as soon as I got out of Fengyang Town, I heard people around shouting horses. Then there were a large number of horse bandits in the dense forest on both sides of the road ahead.
They all wear masks on their faces and whatever they wear. There can be two or three hundred horsemen, as well as ordinary bandits with machetes or spears in their hands.
"I opened the road and planted the tree. If you leave food, we will let you go." the head of the horse bandit shouted loudly.
Although the number of people on the other side is not as large as that on their own side, the number of people who really have combat effectiveness on their own side is at most 500. In terms of the number of people, they are actually not as good as each other. We can't let the honor guards of the etiquette Department influence them with the sound of etiquette and music?
