Chapter 43 Black Snake Ridge
Chapter 43 �
Wang Teng didn't expect Minqing to talk to him. He stood up and bowed, "I dare not take the word "Young Master". I am just a country boy. I have met a lady."
"Your pride is calm and chatting and laughing at your heart. Such talents are rare in the countryside." Minqing smiled slightly, "I heard Mr. Zheng say during the day that you are going to Kyoto too. It is fate that we meet in the barren mountains. Please don't be polite in the convoy. You can give instructions at any time if you need anything."
"Thank you for your hospitality, Miss." Wang Teng nodded.
Minqing smiled at everyone again, "Okay, don't chat too late, just take a break after eating." He turned around and returned to the sedan chair again.
Wang Teng glanced at him and almost all the guards were staring at Min Qing's slim back like Brother Pig, thinking to himself: "This woman is friendly and charming. It is normal for these guards to love her well."
Mr. Zheng shouted angrily: "A bunch of little kids, don't be foolish, hurry up and finish eating and drinking, go to bed early. When you arrive at Black Snake Ridge tomorrow, you will show me full of energy."
The guards quickly answered.
"My friend, I have asked someone to arrange a tent for you, and there will be someone taking turns to guard you at night. You can sleep with peace of mind." Mr. Zheng smiled at Wang Teng again.
"Thank you Mr. Zheng." Wang Teng nodded.
…
One night passed by in a flash. When the next morning, everyone stood up again to travel!
The atmosphere today is a bit depressing. Many people held their weapons tightly while traveling. Even Mr. Zheng did not talk and laugh as easily as yesterday. His frowning face also had a little solemnity.
Wang Tengxin must be because of the so-called "Black Snake Ridge" mentioned by Miss Minqing yesterday. He asked: "Old Zheng, I wonder where the Black Snake Ridge is?"
Mr. Zheng stared ahead: "This road is the only way to Kyoto. The Black Snake Ridge is the nest of many desperate horse thieves and robbers. They are mainly robbers and are notorious all day long."
Wang Teng frowned and said, "There is such a dark place, why does the local government ignore it?"
Mr. Zheng sighed: "The Black Wind Ridge Mountain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Among the many horse thieves, there are even masters of Chu, who are famous, and are crouching tigers and hidden dragons. It is too difficult to break it, so it has been so stalemate."
He smiled and said, "Of course, you don't have to be nervous. They are just asking for money. If we pay enough money, we will naturally be in peace."
Wang Teng nodded.
About half an hour passed, the mountains on both sides gradually became steep, and narrow small canyons in front of them were presented to them.
Wang Teng looked up and saw that the mountain was black, smooth and thick, winding for dozens of miles, like a black snake, lying across the earth, with a magnificent momentum and particularly spectacular.
"I guess this is Black Snake Ridge." He thought to himself.
As soon as the thought fell, a rough shout came from the mountain, saying, "Who is here to my Hei Snake Ridge and report to you." The voice fell, and on the peaks on both sides, many people appeared, holding crossbows and aimed at them.
Many guards drew their swords.
Mr. Zheng waved his hand and stopped them. He clasped his fists and smiled loudly at the height of the mountain, "It turns out that he is the second leader of the "Luo Xiong". He is disrespectful. We meet the treasure land on the road. Please make some convenience and let us leave."
The man whose eyes fell, a group of robbers at the center. The man was two meters tall, taller than others, taller, strong as a bear, and had a scar on his face, full of evil spirits.
He laughed: "It's easy to say, since you know the leader, you should know our rules."
"Of course, a mere polite gift is not respectful." Mr. Zheng waved his hand, and guards came out and threw a package. Luo Xiong caught it, and a pleasant sound of gold and silver collision came. When he opened it, he found that it was indeed a golden golden cake with bright light and great value.
"You old man, you are tactful." Luo Xiong laughed.
"I wonder if we can leave here." Old Zheng smiled.
"The money is enough, but I still have one condition." Luo Xiong smiled, and the scar on his face squirmed, making people shudder.
Mr. Zheng's smile froze and felt something was wrong.
Luo Xiong pointed to the sedan chair and smiled, "Hey, my nose is very good, and I can smell a woman's fragrance from afar. As expected, there must be a beautiful girl in this sedan chair. I haven't tasted the beauty for a long time. Keep her, I'll let you go."
Old Zheng's face darkened: "Second leader, this is probably inappropriate. You Heifengling has already stipulated that if you take the initiative to pay the money, you will not be embarrassed by passers-by."
"Rules? Here I'm saying the rules. I'm in a good mood and I can't accept you, so I'll let you go. Otherwise, I can't call you grandpa. Today I want to fuck a woman. If you don't obediently hand over a pretty girl with a beautiful skin and beauty for me to play with, you can't live without anything." Luo Xiong was extremely arrogant.
Old Zheng's face turned cold, and a look of majesty appeared on his face. He shouted: "Luo Xiong, you are clearly aggressive, look at what this is!"
He took out a token and saw two big words "Huangpu" on the token!
When Wang Teng saw the token, he immediately said: "It turns out that you are the "Huangpu Family" one of the four major royal families of Chu.
The four royal families of Chu State were well-known even in Tiannan City. This token marked the prominent identity of one of the Huangpu family!
Mr. Zheng whispered to him: "My friend, we have our own difficulties. I hope to forgive me if I have hidden it before."
Wang Teng nodded and smiled bitterly. He never thought that in the past two days, this group of people from this convoy came to this convoy in the deserted mountains and forests. They were so big.
"Huangpu family, in this way, the sedan chair is Miss Huangpu Minqing who openly escaped from marriage not long ago." However, after learning about the terrifying identities of Mr. Zheng and others, Luo Xiong was not afraid, but laughed and said, "I finally waited for you."
"What do you mean?" Old Zheng's face changed. He thought that showing off his identity as the Huangpu family was enough to shock these bandits. But now Luo Xiong was not afraid at all, but also looked as if he had been waiting for a long time, and there was obviously a ghost.
Luo Xiong laughed and said, "To be honest, "Young Master Qin Long" has issued an order long ago, saying that you may come to Kyoto from this road, and we have been waiting for the rabbit."
Old Zheng's heart sank: "It turns out that the backer behind you is the Qin family." He didn't know this, otherwise he wouldn't have revealed his identity. He also thought to himself that this Black Snake Ridge has always been able to escape from the law, and I'm afraid he can't get out of touch with the Qin family.
