There were fifty or sixty people in this caravan, each holding a sharp knife and riding horses to guard around the dozens of carriages. Everyone's nervousness gradually calmed down as time went by.
The caravan was advancing very fast, and by noon, the team had traveled more than a hundred miles.
Duan Wuji found an inn in front of him and made an appointment. The clerk in the inn brought good grass and materials and fed all the animals. People ate something and rested for a while and continued on their way.
It's mid-March now, the land is full of vitality, and it's the weather when the grass grows and eagles fly, the surrounding scenery is verdant green, and the green grass on both sides of the road spreads into the distance like two green carpets, and the end can't be seen at a glance. The wild flowers in the grass are dotted with red or purple, adding infinite vitality to this green belt.
The hard-working farmers in the fields are busy in the fields, everything looks so harmonious and natural, and the herding cattle are riding on the back of the cattle and playing the piccolo leisurely herding the cattle, everything is so peaceful and peaceful.
This caravan hurried forward all the way through Cunyue Town, and no one noticed what was in the car.
Along the way, the caravan was hungry and drank, and Xiaoxing stayed overnight. After five or six days of urgent travel, the caravan finally arrived in the Taihang Mountains.
Duan Wuji looked at the towering mountains and said: "Brothers, everyone pay attention, it will be dangerous if you enter the mountains, please be more energetic, let's not make any mistakes?
Don't lose your life if you can't protect the silver! "
After hearing this, the people replied in unison: "Don't worry, Mr. Duan, we all know about this matter, and we will always pay attention to it."
"Well, it's good to know. We will be home in three or two days. When we get home, let's rest him for two days."
This caravan slowly moved forward on the trails in the Taihang Mountains. When it was dark, people found a small town in the mountains and settled down.
This small town in the mountains is originally remote, how can there be any hotels in normal times? It can be said that six or seven days out of ten will not be open for business, because there is no customer, and the shop owner is very happy to see so many customers coming today.
The shop owner hurried out with his wife to entertain the guests.
Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, why don't you even use that guy? This will save you a lot of money.
You really know how to live life! If you don't have a good day, you will be wronged. "
After hearing this, the shopkeeper smiled wryly and said: "Guest officer, you really know how to laugh at me! Look at how poor and miserable I am, how can I hire a man!
Five or six of my ten days are closed. How can I raise people? Wouldn't it be strong to be able to support people? "
"Boss, let's stop talking about this, you can feed all our horses with good grass and materials first, and then cook for us."
"Well, okay. Guest officer, I don't have any good wine or food in this small shop. What do you want to eat?"
"Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Boss, we are all poor businessmen, and we don't want to drink. As for food, you can do whatever you want. We don't care if it's better or worse, as long as it fills you up." Stomach will do.
Just figure it out. "
Everyone was discouraged after hearing this, and they thought that after driving for half a day, they found such an unlucky inn, and there was nothing he could ask for, alas, it was really unlucky.
Everyone has nothing to do, it's not that the owner doesn't want to buy anything, but because he has money and can't spend it, this is what the gods can't do when they come!
Hey, then I have to bear with it.
It's not too long, and the dinner is served. When people see it, ho! Mixed noodles with steamed buns, stewed tofu with dried cabbage, and a large pot of salted vegetables. The soup is not bad, and the millet rice soup is so watery that it looks good on people.
Alas, no matter how good or bad it is, you have to eat it. If you don¡¯t eat it, you will be so hungry.
People forcefully ate their dinner, the shopkeeper brought a small oil lamp, sir, you should go to bed early in a while, let me tell you, our place is not peaceful recently, if someone calls the door at night, Please don't drive, there have been bandits in this place recently.
Once you open the door, you will regret it. A few days ago, a customer asked the bandits to open the door, and was robbed of a lot of money by the bandits. In the end, it was over after two mouths. Are you angry about this?
Let's not learn from them. I'll close the gate in a while. Look at our tall courtyard wall, which is all made of stones. The courtyard wall is more than ten feet high. The average thief isI won't come.
My gate is made of jujube wood. Once it is locked, it cannot be opened from the outside. You just stay in this yard. My small shop is the safest.
Guest officer, let's talk about it first. Once you let those strongmen in, if the store suffers any losses, you people will have to pay for it.
Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Thank you for the reminder, the owner, can we not open the door? It will not bring disaster to you, the owner."
"Well, that's good, I'll close the door quickly, it won't be safe if it's later."
After finishing speaking, the shop owner closed the door and locked it.
Duan Wuji whispered to the people around: "Attention everyone, just now the owner of the store said that this place is not peaceful recently, there are bandits in this place recently, no matter what happens outside at night, none of us are allowed to open the door , did everyone hear clearly?"
"Duantou, we all understood just now, so don't worry, we still need to protect our things, we don't care about outside affairs, we can do whatever we like, that has nothing to do with us nothing.
What are we doing with those nosy things? "
After a while, the owner came back.
"Guest officer, why don't you go into the house and go to sleep, you see it's already dark, go in and have a rest."
Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Shopkeeper, since your place is not peaceful, do you think we can sleep? Our car is full of food. Once an accident happens, how do you tell us to live?
Shopkeeper, we are going to guard our things tonight, so you can go back to the house and rest.
Hey, Boss, do you know the origin of these bandits? How many are there? "
"Well, they are said to have a hundred or so people. Who knows their origins? It is said that there are three bandit leaders, one named Babudengkongshawanli. Very powerful.
The other one is Hou Guanzhong, the life-defying swordsman. This kid is ruthless, and he didn't kill less people in this place.
The most powerful one is the leader of this group of people, his name is Bashou Taisui Guo Changda, this guy is good at flying knives, can hit flying sulfur stones, and makes two steel knives very powerful, why not call him Bashou Taisui?
Guest officer, think about it, all of us have two hands, he has eight hands, do you think we can beat others?
Ordinary people confronted him, and they were beheaded by him within three or five rendezvous. How about calling Bashou Taisui? "
"Shopkeeper, don't the people in your place know how to report to the officials? Why do you let this bandit run amok?"
The owner of the shop smiled wryly after hearing this: "Report to the official? Why don't we report to the official? At least we have reported eight or nine times, and the county magistrate's more than 20 arresters still caught thieves?
It is a problem for them to protect themselves.
At first, the magistrate of the county brought people over for a tour, but later he stopped coming altogether.
Alas, it has harmed the people of our side.
Last time the general army of Hebei Province sent more than a thousand officers and soldiers, none of the bandits were caught, but they did a lot of harm to the people in our area. If you want to eat and drink, who can do it? .
Well, watch it, I'm going back to sleep. "
After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper turned and left.
Tieniu smiled and said, "Damn it, I think a bloody battle is inevitable tonight, everyone sit down and rest for a while."
Duan Changqing laughed and said: "Brother Tieniu, how do you know? Didn't the owner say that just now? As long as we don't go out, nothing will happen, so why should we go out?"
Tie Niu stared at him.
"What do you know? There are so many of us, each of us is riding on such a tall horse, and there are so many vehicles, can this not be a big deal? I don't think we will be able to get through tonight if we don't work hard.
All of you put on that snakeskin armor, let's all prepare desperately for tonight. "
Duan Wuji smiled.
"Brother Tieniu, your analysis is too correct, I think so too.
Attention everyone, tonight we are ready to fight, everyone, I don't think this battle can be escaped tonight.
Brother Cao, you lead the brothers to protect our vehicle. Brother Changhong and Brother Changhao, you two are assistants to Brother Cao. Be careful, no one is allowed to open the door without my order. If they succeed, we can use bows Jane beckoned them.
Brother Tieniu and Brother Changqing, let the three of us do the battle to meet the enemy.
Two brothers, get ready too, let's get ready to fight in a while. "
