Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system

As soon as the official appointments were made, Lin Jiu and Gu Qing were about to leave for the north.

The two did not take office alone, but mixed with the caravan. This caravan was formed by the Lin clan after they came out of the mountains. At this time, they were going north to bring the medicinal materials and specialties from the south to the north for trade. At the same time, Also purchase some medicinal materials and furs from the north.

"I've met Aunt Ninth." Lin Lang, who was also the leader of the caravan, came to visit Lin Jiu immediately after arriving in Beijing.

"Have everything been prepared?" Lin Jiu looked at him with a smile.

"Go back to Aunt Ninth. Everything has been taken care of. Just wait until Auntie is ready before we can leave." Lin Lang said with a smile.

"It will be a good day in three days. It will benefit the north, so we will set off in three days."

"Yes."

Three days later, Lin Jiu and the others appeared together in the north of the city, where the caravan was already waiting.

"Jiu Mei, you have to be more careful when going north this time." Lin Yu said with concern.

"Brother, don't worry, I will do it. You should also take care of yourself in the capital."

"Don't worry, dear brother, I will take good care of my sister." Gu Qing said with a smile.

"My brother is here, so I feel relieved. It's just that I have never been separated from my ninth sister before. We say goodbye today and I don't know when we will see each other again. I can't help but feel reluctant to leave. I can't help but give you a few more words." Lin Yu said with a smile.

"Uncle Six, Aunt Ninth, it's almost time, we should set off."

"Brother, stay and take care."

"Take care and have a safe journey."

"Take care of yourself."

Lin Jiu and Gu Qing got on their horses and went up the official road. The caravan had already left before they set off, and it didn't take long for Lin Jiu and Lu Qing to catch up with them.

Perhaps it was because they were relatively close to the capital, or perhaps because they had been taking the official road. The caravan had a safe journey in the first three days. This did not mean that there were no bandits on the road they passed. On the contrary, according to the intelligence obtained by Lin Jiu , they passed through at least three relatively powerful bandit villages, and not everyone robbed these villages. At least in their opinion, a poor caravan like the Lin family was not worthy of their dispatch.

Five days later, Lin Jiu followed the caravan into Henan Prefecture, while Gu Qing and several of his followers rushed to Jizhou.

"Lang Geer, what's the boundary ahead?"

"Aunt Ninth, we are almost at Jingyang County."

"Jingyang County?"

"Yes."

"Go ahead and tell everyone to be vigilant."

There is a Wagang Mountain in Jingyang County, and a group of bandits gather on the mountain. This group of bandits has often robbed wealthy businessmen passing by in the name of green forest heroes robbing the rich and helping the poor, and this group of people did distribute part of the money to the locals after the robbery. These poor people benefited from them and helped them cover up. Therefore, every time the imperial court was about to send troops to encircle and suppress someone, someone would tip off the enemy, but every time they returned without success.

A month ago, these bandits formed a sworn alliance with Taoyuan, the bandit leader from several other hills, and established some kind of Juxian Villa. Then they used miracles to say that the people in Juxian Villa were Tiangang and Earthshakes descending to earth, and they also said that they were substitutes for heaven. To walk the road, he set up a big flag on Wagang Mountain to walk the road for heaven, and his wolfish ambition was clearly revealed.

Lin Lang also knew that there were many bandits in this area, so he would be careful even if Lin Jiu didn't tell them.

As soon as Lin Jiu and the others entered Jingyang County, they were targeted by the people from Wagang Mountain.

"Brother, we found a fat sheep." The man with sly eyebrows and sly eyes quickly ran back to Wagang Mountain after discovering Lin Jiu and his caravan. This man was not good at martial arts, but he had excellent light skills. He was nicknamed Scud Shi Jian. .

"Oh, are you sure it's a fat sheep?" Song Mingtang, the boss of Wagang Mountain, scratched the blade of the razor with his left thumb.

"Brother, there are more than a dozen carriages in this caravan. They are all packed tightly. There must be a lot of treasures inside. If this is not a fat sheep, who is the fat sheep?" Shi Jian said with certainty.

"Hahahaha, fat sheep is good..." Song Mingtang stood up with a knife in one hand, "Brothers, let's go, my eldest brother will take you to catch Yang."

The official road down the mountain...

"Aunt Ninth, there is a tea shed ahead. It's getting hot today. It will take several hours to get to the next inn. Why not go to the tea shed ahead to have a rest and eat some dry food." Lin Lang saw that there was a thatched tea shop in front of him. , immediately came over to ask Lin Jiu's opinion.

Lin Jiu nodded, "Just arrange it."

"Auntie is an elder. There is no reason for the younger generation to rest before the elders have a rest." Lin Lang said respectfully.

"You! You are becoming more and more old-fashioned."

Lin Jiu walked into the tea shop with a smile, and then Lin Lang led the others in.

The owner of this tea shop was an old man with some gray hair. When he saw Lin Jiu and the others coming in, he quickly stepped forward to entertain them.

"Old man, I'd like to lend you your tea shop for a rest and boil a few pots of tea for us." Lin Lang placed a silver nugget on the hand of the old man in the tea shop.

"Okay, gentlemen, wait a moment, the tea will be boiled soon." The old man nodded with a smile.

"My lord, your tea."

The old man placed the teapot in front of Lin Jiu.

Seeing this, Lin Lang quickly took the bowl next to him and poured a bowl for Lin Jiu.

Lin Jiu looked at the tea bowl in front of him with a smile on his lips, "Lang Geer is getting more and more considerate." Lin Jiu said while tapping the table with her fingers.

"Aunt Ninth is an elder. When I left, my great-grandfather repeatedly told me to take good care of Aunt Ninth. If Aunt Ninth suffers any grievances outside, I don't have to go back." Lin Lang said with a smile.

"Okay, there's no need to pay so much attention to things when you're out."

Lin Jiu's fingers were still beating on the table.

"Aunt Ninth, the tea is cold." Lin Lang smiled.

"Well, I happen to be thirsty too."

Lin Jiu winked at Lin Lang, and then drank all the tea in the bowl.

"Aunt Ninth, eat some dry food..." Lin Lang fell to the ground with a thud before he finished speaking.

"Brother Lang..." Lin Jiu saw Lin Lang falling and quickly got up to help him up.

However, she felt dizzy, and other clan members also fell down.

"Tea..." Lin Jiu looked at the originally honest old man with a triumphant smile, "There's something wrong with the tea..."

"bump!"

Lin Jiu fell directly to the ground.

"Lao Liu's attack was indeed extraordinary. He captured them all without spending a single soldier." Shi Jian jumped out proudly.

"Brother, in addition to cloth and herbs, there is also some money on the carriage." In this era, banknotes had not yet appeared, and the money from selling goods could only be put into the door box, or the copper coins were strung together with ropes. On the waist.

In ancient times, one thousand copper coins was probably equivalent to one tael of silver. Rich in wealth, this is how this idiom comes from.

"Brother, what should we do with these people? Do you want to..." Shi Jian made a gesture of wiping his neck.

"All the goods were taken away. As for these people, they are just ordinary people and do not pose a threat, so they were released." Song Mingtang said.

"Brother, where is this woman?"
