The rumbling wheels of the ox cart, having rested for a long while, started rolling again, taking them towards the border between Liang State and Qingqiu.
On the road, Gouwa, his hand shielding his forehead, fanned his sweaty face continuously. "With the weather being this hot, Brother Li, why don't we just travel tomorrow instead?"
"Tomorrow will also be hot. What about the day after tomorrow? If it's hot then, too, shall we wait until autumn? If that place is so great, why did you come along? Wouldn't it be better to stay and herd sheep with Baolu?"
Hearing Li Huowang's sarcasm, Gouwa looked at the few remaining women and let out a sly chuckle before falling silent.
He wasn't that foolish. With a wife almost within grasp, why would he stay behind? Even if the meat was delicacy, would it be better than a wife? Besides, following Brother Li, he wasn't worried about lacking meat to eat.
