[System] Former political enemies are all guilty of peach blossoms
Chapter 25 Encountering Robbers
In the early morning of the next day, the heavy snow had stopped, and the Tumi River beside the village slowed down, and the ice debris could be seen floating on the water surface. Fortunately, the winter sun came out in the morning, the snow melted, and the road conditions were still good.
They bid farewell to old man Dong and drove on.
"I heard that Liujinzhai is near this village, so be careful on the way."
Mu Yunmen's expression was solemn, he lifted the curtain and said,
Everyone nodded and rode on the road.On the hills stood great expanses of dead trees, snow-capped, covering their branches, and silvering the dull and desolate branches.
The bushes are luxuriant all year round, and the mountain walls are steep and rocky, which is relatively easy to climb.
Mei Fu drove with floating eyes, observing the ground conditions, but the road was eerily quiet, and they were the only ones who walked for several hours.
"Master Mu, this road was originally rugged, and few people walked it. Now there are water thieves rampant, and it will meet other roads soon, so don't worry about getting lost."
The driver who was in charge of driving Mu Yunmen's carriage said, lightly tapping the horse's buttocks with the rope.
As he said, after noon, the road they were going down the mountain merged with other roads and turned into a spacious official road, leading to the bustling Lian County.
"Drive! Drive!"
On the other road, a caravan of more than a dozen people happened to drive over. They also hired some bodyguards to act as bodyguards, and walked in front of Mu Yunmen's group.
The bodyguards surrounding the caravan cast a sidelong glance at them, and slowly touched the handle of the knife at their waist, obviously vigilant in secret.Not to be outdone, Junye Yubayashi responded with sharp eyes, straightened his silver armor, and the engraved pattern symbolizing the imperial court shone in the sun, which was very eye-catching.
Seeing the engraved pattern, the guard's face changed slightly, he looked around them leisurely, and after confirming that it might be someone from the imperial court, he released his hand on the handle of the knife.
"Hmph! Knowing your grandfather is considered to be knowledgeable about current affairs."
Junye Yubayashi snorted, clamped his horse's buttocks, and stood upright.
There were about 30 people walking together on the road, but it was still quiet and scary, only the horseshoes trampling one after another, especially the caravan in front, from time to time, be wary of water thieves that might be intercepted halfway, which is very nervous.
Mu Yunmen opened the curtain and quietly observed the caravan.
There are mostly wagons, and there are a few gorgeously decorated carriages, and there should be businessmen sitting in them.What can be clearly seen are cloth and silk, tea, and brewed wine, but the rest are covered by linen, so it is impossible to see what is going on.
As the evening approached, it took another night and the next morning to reach Lian County. The road was safe and sound, and the atmosphere of the caravan was a little lively.Suddenly, Mu Yunmen felt a huge vibration in the carriage, shaking his arm directly against the wall of the carriage!
"Oh! What's the matter?"
Lao Guo's complaints from outside the car spread into the car, and Mu Yunmen opened the curtain to see the situation.
I saw that the flat official road was covered with tens of thousands of face-sized gravels. It was 100 meters long and full of fallen rocks. It was a big obstacle for the carriage!
"Probably some stones were brought by the falling rocks from the mountain."
Lao Guo thought that Mu Yunmen was unhappy, so he quickly apologized and comforted him.
But the man's attention was not on this. They were okay, but the car body was slightly bumpy, but the carriages entrusted with extremely heavy cargo by the caravan ahead were not the same.
"What's going on with this road! How did this person pass by?!"
An obese man in fine clothes jumped out of the carriage, shouted impatiently, and walked back and forth around the rocky road ahead, with the wind blowing in his sleeves.
Two more merchants in Chinese clothes jumped out of the car, and several people gathered around the front to discuss.
"You two, go and move some big stones that are in the way, coachmen! Leave the small stones alone, and go on the road while clearing."
In the end, the discussion among several businessmen came up with a half-hearted decision. After all, they had to enter Lian County in time for the morning market tomorrow morning. To make money and earn a living, a little risk was inevitable.
After hearing the result, the members of the Muyun Sect at the back of the large team also decided to move forward in this way.
In this way, along the way, about [-] caravans and a group of people moved forward, clearing the ink stains and falling rocks.At this time, the bloody setting sun had already set, the sky was dark, there was no open fire on the mountain road, and darkness began to fall on all sides.
"..."
Mu Yunmen was not in the mood to stay in the carriage with his legs crossed at the moment, he stayed outside the carriage with the driver, and slowly rolled over the bumpy road stones with the wheels.
It's really not good. It stands to reason that at this time, they should have gone down the mountain long ago. I'm afraid they have already found a family to stay for the night.Instead of staying in the mountains, clearing roadblocks in the dark, and moving forward slowly.
The so-called blessings never come, and misfortunes never come singly. Mu Yunmen's beating heart reached its peak amidst the changes ahead.
"Boom!"
Only a huge movement was heard, accompanied by a distressed call from a man.
"Hey! You are! You have ruined the cost of my money?"
When the guards heard the movement, several people approached with torches. It turned out that a truck finally overturned because of the bumps.
More than a dozen large bags of goods wrapped in sacks got out of the carriage and fell on the ground. Several bags were smashed open, and a large amount of salt rolled out.
Under the reflection of the fire, the salt block is like crystal, shining brightly.
——Be careful and avoid the salt merchants.
Involuntarily, the old man Dong's advice from last night exploded in Mu Yunmen's mind like thunder.The scalp is numb.
Chance events should be chance events.
Mu Yunmen firmly believed.
Just as there was commotion in front of them, several people picked up salt blocks from the ground and put them into bags, and several people jointly pushed the overturned carriage to the right.The bustling voices of the crowd echoed on the dark mountain road, accompanied by the rushing current.
"Old Guo, Lord Habayashi, Dawu, Mazi, we will take our money and leave..."
Mu Yunmen grabbed Lao Guo's sleeves, called everyone aside and whispered.
"But my lord...and horses and carts..."
Mazi looked confused and said in a daze.
"It doesn't matter, this place is not good. If we walk through the forest next to the main road and move forward under the cover of boulders, we shouldn't get lost."
The man said with a serious expression.
"No... Mr. Mu, without the horse, we have been in Lian County for a long time, and now the trouble is the trouble..."
Junye Yubayashi couldn't agree with Mu Yunmen's inexplicable decision.
"What Master Mu said is, let's go."
A group of people were not willing to listen to Mu Yunmen, but Da Wu suddenly stood in front of Muyunmen, and said in a deep voice.
I don't know why the aura exuded by the big man made the rest of the people shudder, feeling a sense of fear of kneeling and singing conquest.
"......All right."
Under Da Wu's silent deterrence, they responded loudly, packed their bags, left the carriage on the side of the road, and climbed up the snow-capped forest under the cover of night.
The caravan ahead was busy, and no one noticed that the group of people behind them had quietly left, but no one noticed that the danger lurking in the dark was gradually approaching.
Mu Yunmen's group put out the flames, and a row of people trudged slowly through the snow with their eyes fixed on the heels of the people in front of them.The official road can be seen from far and near, and they will not get lost. In this way, they passed through the mountains and forests, and passed the section of road full of fallen rocks.
Suddenly, a tragic call came from not far from the avenue, passing through the canyon and directly entering Mu Yunmen's eardrums.
"The system prompts, the follow-up progress of the opportunity event, please actively participate and receive random rewards."
Yisha reminded.
Chance event!Sure enough.
"You wait here, don't move, I'll go and have a look."
Mu Yunmen whispered to the others, and was about to turn his head to see what happened, when suddenly, his wrist was clamped by a warm thick palm.
"Humph."
Yisha hummed softly for no apparent reason, a little joyful.
"Lord Mu...I'll go with you."
Da Wu's hand held his wrist firmly and warmly, stopping his movements.Under the darkness of the night, the opponent's eyes flickered with an inch of golden light. For a moment, Mu Yunmen felt that Mei Fu was right in front of his eyes.
How can it be?That person is thousands of miles away, in Weiyang City.
Mu Yunmen felt that he was just an illusion, nodded, and together with the two of them, under the cover of white snow and huge rocks, they found a place where they could peek at the mountain road.
The road down the mountain was already surrounded by more than a dozen people holding torches, their swords collided with each other, and there was a mournful clank.
With screams, all the guards of the caravan were bleeding everywhere, and died in a foreign land.
"Ahh! Spare me! Spare me! I have money, so I can take whatever I want!"
The three businessmen were dressed poorly and had bloodstains on their bodies, but they were only slightly injured, not fatal.
More than a dozen big men carrying knives wandered around in the commercial vehicle, and the drivers were all cowering like mice, their faces livid with fright.
A man in Chinese robes with a knife scar across his nose, but with an extremely feminine complexion sat on a box full of gold, silver and jewels with his legs crossed and his figure enchanting.
With a chuckle, he lightly raised the faces of the rich merchants with the toe of his silk shoes.
"Hmph, none of them are handsome."
The man who was picking up the truck on the side smiled and said:
"Brother Jin, are you looking for another prey?"
"Well, I'm tired of everyone in the village, after all, none of them are interesting."
The man named Brother Jin sucked his fair fingertips with the tip of his tongue, showing a charming look.
I'm afraid I'm not looking for a male favorite who can drive piles!With the same thought, all the men in the caravan were scared out of their wits.
"Besides gold and silver...tea, rubbish! It's silk, rubbish!"
The big man picked the high-quality goods one by one, cursing.
"Damn, robbing a convoy is nothing useful except gold and silver?"
Another bearded man spat and said viciously.
"Hey! Don't tell me too early, here! Twelve bags of salt, send it!"
The man behind was overjoyed, and immediately let a group of robbers swarm up like hungry wolves fighting for food!
"Wait, let me see first."
Brother Jin said slowly, probably very prestigious, when he finished speaking, several burly men immediately moved out of their positions like loyal dogs.
He picked up the salt block with his slender fingers, tasted it with the tip of his pink tongue, and drew up his red lips.
"It's Wu Yan... very good, today's trip is worthwhile. Bring gold and Wu Yan, and you..."
Brother Jin picked a younger businessman, and he kissed him with his tongue.
"I will accept all the valuables in Liujinzhai."
He licked his red lips, kicked the kissed businessman away, and looked up proudly.
All the burly men pulled up the carriage and snatched all the horses, while the man in the Chinese robe led the horse riding alone, smiling seductively under the moonlight.
"?"
Suddenly, Brother Jin looked towards the dark forest and was silent for a while.
"What's the matter, brother Jin?"
"Nothing, maybe it's just an animal walking in the mountains, let's go!"
A group of water thieves who flowed into Jinzhai took away gold, silver and Wu salt, and left on horseback.
At this moment, Da Wu tightly covered the Muyun Gate with his body, and the two of them lowered their bodies and hid behind the snow-covered rocks.
All of them are gone, peeping clearly.
They bid farewell to old man Dong and drove on.
"I heard that Liujinzhai is near this village, so be careful on the way."
Mu Yunmen's expression was solemn, he lifted the curtain and said,
Everyone nodded and rode on the road.On the hills stood great expanses of dead trees, snow-capped, covering their branches, and silvering the dull and desolate branches.
