The bandit who was on sentry waiting for Yang Yuanzu to appear noticed Yang Yuanzu's caravan not far away. He thought that there was no one beside the carriage, so everyone must have come to reinforce the caravan.

The fighting at the front was fierce, and the bandits tended to fall into a disadvantage. Seeing this, the sentry thief started to think. Rather than being beaten back later, it would be better to check the situation now and grab some things before fleeing back to find reinforcements.

So the sentry thief called a few people to go with him and quietly lead the carriage away.

Several people approached the carriage and smiled when they looked at the horses with smooth skin and smooth skin. None of these horses were worth sixty or seventy taels of silver alone in the market, and there were so many horses here that they suddenly became rich, let alone the carriage. The goods inside and the caravan from before.

Just when several people relaxed their vigilance, several arrows were suddenly shot from the carriage, hitting the leader's heart. The bandit did not expect that he would die.

The female friends still hid in the carriage with crossbows and fired, while the men got out of the carriage with weapons to kill the remaining bandits who were shot by arrows.

After driving away the bandits, the caravan boss collapsed on the ground exhausted, and sighed in fear: "I have never encountered such a large number of bandits, and I thought I was going to die here this time." After that, he clasped his fists and raised his hand to the bandits. Yang Yuanzu and his party saluted, "Thank you, Boss Yang, for saving me. I am deeply grateful!"

Yang Yuanzu looked at the other person who looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before, "How did you know that my surname is Yang?"

Boss Hao explained: "About three or four years ago, Boss Lin and I met Boss Yang when we were discussing business at a teahouse in Shunxing County."

After hearing Boss Hao's words, Yang Yuanzu remembered that he had indeed followed Lin Ting'an to the teahouse to discuss business. Before he could think about it, Boss Hao asked anxiously: "I wonder if Boss Yang has ever seen a woman with skin that is thicker than ordinary women." Slightly darker, sixteen years old."

"I have seen her. It was your daughter who asked us to rescue you. She is now with my husband."

"I'll feel relieved if I'm with Boss Lin." Boss Hao was completely relieved and leaned back on the carriage.

Luo Mingshi ran to Yang Yuanzu with the medicine box and asked, "Are you okay?"

Yang Yuanzu shook his head, "I'm fine, you go and see other people."

Several people in Boss Hao's team were seriously injured in this ambush attack. Fortunately, Luo Mingshi, a doctor with strong medical skills, was present, otherwise it would be difficult to survive today.

Yang Yuanzu took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood on his face and hands. After cleaning himself up briefly, Lin Ting'an came over with the motorcade. He left the child in the carriage for the maid to watch first.

Lin Ting'an got off the carriage and came to look around during lunch break. Yang Yuanzu said with a smile: "It's okay." After that, he turned around to cooperate with Lin Ting'an's inspection.

When Boss Hao saw an old acquaintance, he stepped forward to express his thanks enthusiastically and gratefully. Knowing that Lin Ting'an loved to eat dried fruits, he specially moved two large bags of dried fruits from the truck and gave them to Lin Ting'an, "We are going to the border to purchase dried fruits this time. I didn’t expect to encounter bandits on the way back. Thanks to my benefactor for saving me, in the future, if you can find anything useful for me, please feel free to ask me. These dried fruits can be used as a thank you gift today!”

"Boss Hao is traveling all year round. It is better to hire more bodyguards to protect you when traveling in the future." Lin Ting'an suggested.

"I hired two escorts. I didn't expect that there were so many bandits this time." Boss Hao replied.

"Zhexian Mountain Zhexian Mountain, as the name suggests, means that when immortals come, they have to break here." The guide came over and continued: "Zhexian Mountain is an important transportation road between the north and the south. The terrain is steep and winding, making it unfavorable for pedestrians. At first, only people gathered here Five or six young bandits robbed homes and houses. Because they always returned home with a full load after robbery, the reputation of this place spread over time. Some young bandits who heard the rumors came here to join the Zhexian Mountain gang. In this way, the bandit den in Zhexian Mountain gradually became stronger. .”

Boss Hao said angrily: "The government dares to rob, and there are so many of them, so the government doesn't care about them?"

The guide shook his head helplessly, "Boss Hao doesn't know something. Only the foot of Zhexian Mountain is the official road. This Zhexian Mountain is considered a three-no-no zone, neither north nor south. In addition, bandits always only rob merchants and never provoke them." It’s a scholar status, so they don’t bother to care about it.”

"I have never encountered these bandits when I walked this road before."

"That's because Boss Hao is lucky. You still need to be more careful when taking this path in the future."

Yang Yuanzu thought about the road they were going to take and asked worriedly: "Does the guide know how many bandits there are on Zhexian Mountain?"

The guide shook his head: "I don't know. If I led the team before and encountered them, I would have to pay the protection fee to be able to pass. So I usually lead people to take small paths to avoid them."

Then he added: "But there are so many people here now, even if we walk on a small road, there will be a lot of noise."

"We have killed so many bandits, so we should have been targeted. I am worried that there will be an ambush on the main road."

"Boss Yang's words make sense, so let's take the smaller route as originally planned."

After the route was discussed, everyone dispersed. Yang Yuanzu and the guide helped everyone pack up the things scattered on the ground.

Lin Ting'an took Boss Hao aside alone and asked him his doubts: "Now that there is a war on the border and there is chaos, Boss Hao is not afraid of danger when he purchases goods over there?"

In the past, businessmen loved to go to the border to buy some foreign goods that were in high demand and sell them back, but now everyone avoids the border.

Speaking of this, Boss Hao said that he was also helpless. He had stored a large amount of goods at the border and almost all his own wealth was invested in it. If he lost these goods, he would lose everything.

After everyone packed up, they set off again, this time they were traveling with Boss Hao.

Since the guide knew the road, Yang Yuanzu and his team walked in front.

Yang Yuanzu felt uncomfortable all over while sitting in the carriage, even though he had changed into clean clothes.

He came closer to Lin Ting'an and lowered his head to look at him, "Daughter-in-law, I can smell blood no matter what. Please help me see if there is blood on my hair."

Lin Ting'an looked at it carefully and said, "There seems to be some. Let's boil some hot water and wash it off while we wait for the car to stop and rest."

His body was not clean, so Yang Yuanzu didn't even lie down on the bed. When the carriage stopped in the evening, he couldn't wait to get out of the car and set up a tent with everyone, and then boiled hot water to take a bath.

"Why do you work hard to make money? It's just for enjoyment! It's so comfortable to take a hot bath in the ice and snow." Yang Yuanzu said happily while sitting in the hot tub.

There was a small tent for sleeping in the big tent. Lin Ting'an put the child into the small tent and turned around and said: "Be careful of catching a cold!"

Yang Yuanzu moved to make way for an empty seat, "Young man, do you want to go swimming with your brother~"

Lin Ting'an couldn't help but laugh and said: "Did you know that you look like the playboy in the picture book?"

"Come on~ come on~"

"I do not want it!"
