Chapter 226 Carriage
Zhang Jidong's house had no cars, so he walked to Tongqian'ao. Even if the road was opened, it would take one or two days. This time, I'm afraid I'll have to walk until next week to come back.
I originally wanted to borrow a car from Yang Baosong, but no one could drive it when borrowing it. I couldn't delay others' work for a day.
"How about we go on a horse." Zhang Jiling came up with an idea.
"No, Teacher Dai may not be able to ride a horse." Zhang Jidong shook his head. He and his sister can ride. The child has strong ability in the study room and learns it when he falls. Just like learning to ride a bicycle, the child can learn it after falling one or two times, and adults may not be able to learn it even if they fall one or two times. Besides, riding a horse is tiring. If you ride a horse for such a long distance, you can also make people feel tired.
"Don't you know if you ask your master to learn a useful spell?" Zhang Jiling said.
Zhang Jidong shook his head. He couldn't ask his master about this. Last time he said he wanted to create magic by himself. The most important thing is that his own magic is very useful. As long as he creates it himself, he will learn it immediately.
"Carriage! Jidong! Let's take a carriage over. Get a more powerful carriage out, don't bump too hard!" Zhang Jiling said.
Zhang Jidong's eyes lit up. This is a good idea. If someone wants to get a carriage, he has to make a carriage first. It will take several days to make a carriage. The daylily will be cold when the carriage is made. Zhang Jidong doesn't have to think so much. He just carved one with locust wood and refined it with puppet technique. Then he added some runes to the carriage, such as the wind talisman, so that the carriage will not bump at all when it is driven, and there is no wind resistance at all, so he can drive it up.
After all this, there was a very exquisite carriage in Zhang Jidong's yard. The carriage shed and wheel hubs were carved with strange patterns, which looked very simple.
When Zhang Jiling walked out and saw the carriage, he immediately exclaimed: "The carriage is ready?"
"Well, I haven't tried it yet." Zhang Jidong was still doing an inspection, worried that the carriage would break down in the middle.
There are four seats in the carriage, and the seats in front of the car can be used to ride in total. Zhang Jidong jumped up and sat for a while, and felt that the seats were quite comfortable.
"How is it? I'll try it too." Zhang Jiling climbed into the vehicle excitedly. This was a bit not very good, the carriage was relatively high, and it was a bit difficult when going up.
"Well, it's okay. It seems quite comfortable to sit up. Ji Dong drove out to try it. Will it be bumpy?" Zhang Jiling poked his head out of the window of the car.
Zhang Jidong put on two puppet horses that looked almost identical, and then drove the carriage out of the yard. When he arrived on the road, his speed increased.
"Hey, when the car drove, it didn't seem to feel bumpy at all. It seemed to be more comfortable than being a small car from the fat uncle's house. Do we need to burn oil in this carriage?" Zhang Jiling said.
The speed of the carriage has been controlled at thirty or forty yards, which makes Zhang Jiling feel a little bored.
"Jidong, can it be faster?" Zhang Jiling asked.
"Then you sit firmly. Don't fly out." Zhang Jidong said.
The speed of the carriage gradually accelerated, almost sixty or seventy yards. But Zhang Jiling, who was sitting in the carriage, didn't feel it at all. The carriage was so stable that Zhang Jidong had no idea that the runes he attached to the carriage had such a magical effect.
"Stop quickly, stop quickly, where are you?" Zhang Jiling felt a little panicked when he saw the scenery outside the window flashing past the side like flying.
Zhang Jidong stopped the carriage. Although he stopped suddenly, Zhang Jiling did not feel any inertia of rushing forward. If an ordinary car suddenly said that it would brake, it would definitely make people fly out in one posture.
"Where is this?" Zhang Jiling's legs were still shaking. The speed was too fast just now, and she was really panicked.
"I'm at the reservoir." Zhang Jidong said.
"It's so far? It seems to be faster than taking a bus." Zhang Jiling said.
"Of course it's faster than taking a bus. The bus has to drive so fast that it's already flying out." Zhang Jidong said.
"Then aren't you afraid of flying out?" Zhang Jiling gave Zhang Jidong a blank look.
"I don't know. The puppet horse stops whenever I want, and leaves whenever I want, and will not make any mistakes at all.
The next morning, the two siblings and Teacher Dai were about to set off. Before getting on the bus, Lu Shuyun ran over panting and said, "I'll go with you too. I've been to Shuanghe for so long, and I haven't been to Tongqian'ao yet. I heard that the scenery there is good. Don't you mind, right?"
Zhang Jidong immediately turned to Dai Ruying. Dai Ruying hurriedly said, "I have no problem."
"How are you going to get there?" Zhang Jidong asked.
"I don't have a car. If you walk over, I will walk with you." Lu Shuyun said.
"We are not ready to walk over. It will take at least two days to reach Tongqian'ao." Zhang Jidong said.
"It's so far? Then how are you going to go?" Lu Shuyun asked.
"We are going to take a carriage," said Zhang Jiling.
"Carriage?" Lu Shuyun and Dai Ruying said in unison.
"Yes. Just take a carriage. Look, the carriage is ready." Zhang Jiling said, pointing to the carriage in the yard.
Dai Ruying took a look and felt a little overwhelmed. Can I get there in one day by taking this car to Tongqian'ao?
Lu Shuyun hurriedly said, "Why should I find a way to borrow a car? Secretary Yang is quite good. It should be fine to borrow a car from him."
"Can you drive?" Zhang Jidong asked.
Lu Shuyun shook her head: "I haven't had time to take the exam."
Zhang Jidong looked at Dai Ruying again: "Teacher Dai, where are you?"
Dai Ruying also shook her head: "It's not long before registration, I just passed the first subject."
"Are you still expecting others to drive us to travel around the mountains and rivers?" Zhang Jidong said angrily.
"But, you can't drive over the carriage much faster than walking, right?" Lu Shuyun said.
"It's not much faster than walking? Why don't you try to walk with us?" Zhang Jiling rolled her eyes, and the car couldn't catch up. You said it's not faster than walking.
Dai Ruying asked with some concern: "Jidong, can you come back today by carriage?"
"It's definitely okay. But if you want to play there for a while, you can camp in Tongqianao. After watching the sunrise in Tongqianao, you will come back tomorrow morning and go back to school in the afternoon without delaying it at all." Zhang Jidong said.
"How is it possible? I have been sitting in the carriage, but it is really not much faster than walking. After sitting for a long time, it is not very comfortable." Lu Shuyun said.
"Do you like to sit or not? We don't ask you to go with me!" Zhang Jidong said angrily.
Dai Ruying quickly stopped him and said, "Ji Dong. Sorry, Lu Shuyun. Otherwise, you might as well go back."
"Teacher Dai, are you really going to take their carriage to Tongqianao?" Lu Shuyun asked.
"It's okay. Just sit wherever you sit today, just come back before dark." Dai Ruying said.
"I'd better go with you." Lu Shuyun said.
Both siblings pouted, and Dai Ruying hurriedly said, "Ji Dong, Ji Ling, Brother Lu wants to go, please let him get in the car."
Dai Ruying spoke, and the two siblings couldn't say anything, so they didn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face.
