Chapter 62 Pass
Chen An understood Li's puppet head's concerns and decisions. Moreover, when he hired Yiyou Escort Business, he did not mention that he offended Xuanwu Sword Sect. Now Xuanwu Sword Sect has come to him on his own initiative. To a certain extent, it is indeed because he has implicated Yiyou Escort Business, so he agreed to terminate the contract and let everyone get together.
Back in the team and set off again, Chen An accompanied the little girl in the carriage for a while. After she fell asleep in a tired and tired manner, he quietly left the carriage because he wanted to ask Li Biaotou's skills to ride a horse.
After all, when it comes to traveling, riding a horse is always lighter and faster than a carriage, especially at critical moments.
Li Piaotou agreed with this. As a escort businessman, riding a horse is one of the skills that must be mastered. However, it is easy to teach, but it is difficult to teach. If the other party has poor understanding, he will not be able to teach it no matter how much he teaches. This is no wonder that he has not tried his best.
Fortunately, Li PaoTou didn't need to worry about these things. After teaching for a while, he could not help but want to ask, are you really a beginner in horse riding? Such a terrifying horse riding talent may only be comparable to the Northern Barbarians who grew up on horseback.
As the evening approached, everyone finally arrived at the next county town, Hengshan County.
Hengshan County is located in the northern border of Qizhou and adjacent to Luzhou. It is known as the throat of Qizhou's northern gate. It is an important town that cannot be avoided from both south and north, so the local economic development is particularly prosperous.
Shortly after entering the city, there were many shops and restaurants along the street, with frequent vehicles coming and going, and the bustling scenery could be seen everywhere. Compared with the towns you passed by before, it was hard to compare.
After searching for several inns, Li PaoTou helped Chen An find a place to stay. Then he led the escort staff to say goodbye to Chen An.
"Brother Chen, according to our agreement, I can only send you here, I'm so sorry!"
“Don’t you live together?”
Chen An stood in front of the inn door holding the little girl's hand, looking at Li Biaotou who was holding his fists to him and said.
"We are a bunch of thick and thick men who are not able to live in such a good inn. You can save as much as possible..." Li Pao Head looked at the magnificent inn behind Chen An, and a wry smile appeared on his dark face. "I would like to say that, I have to thank you for only half of the wardrobe. Originally, we should have refunded all of this fee to you as a promise..."
"No matter what, you have escorted half of our journey. This hard work is what you deserve." Chen Anduo.
"Oh, Brother Chen, I will never thank you for your kindness. We will be destined to see you again in the future!"
Li Paotou shook his head and sighed, then took the escort people to him and left directly.
"Uncle, will Uncle Li and the others leave with us in the future?" The confused little girl pulled Chen An's sleeve and said.
"Yes, they can't continue to escort us to Jiangzhou if they have something to do, but don't worry, I will find another escort business to escort us to Jiangzhou."
Chen An looked at the back of Li Piaotou and others who were leaving with a calm expression, and reached out to pat the little girl's head and thought casually.
Li Piaotou broke the promise because of the Xuanwu Sword Sect incident, but the escort business in Hengshan County did not know the grudge between him and Xuanwu Sword Sect. It would not be difficult to find another escort business to escort it, but this would inevitably mean a bit cheating. Therefore, the escort business he chose next must have some deep background in the martial arts world, and it is best to be a famous sect like Yunqing Sect that is not afraid of Xuanwu Sect at all. Even if the other party wants to take revenge, he will probably have to carefully consider it.
I never thought that after he asked the inn about the local escort business, there was actually an escort business run by Yunqingmen disciples in Hengshan County.
As a result, the next day he asked for directions and found the Yunqingmen escort business and discussed the price. Before noon, they and their party left Hengshan County in a mighty manner and set off on the way to Jiangzhou again.
Perhaps because of the big tree of Yunqingmen, the escorts in Yunqingmen's escorts were a little arrogant in their words and deeds. Not to mention Sun's escort, his arrogance and arrogance alone made people disgusted. Compared with Li's escorts, his professional cultivation was simply a world. If he hadn't taken a fancy to their background, Chen An would really wish to terminate the contract with the other party immediately.
Therefore, in the following days, unless necessary, he stayed in the carriage and was too lazy to take care of the other party.
However, it has to be said that they didn’t even encounter a thief along the way with the Yunqing Gate escort flag. It was so smooth that it was no wonder that they developed the current habits of these escorts.
As they were about to enter the territory of Jiangzhou, Xuanwu Jianmen has not yet come to seek revenge again. It is believed that Chen An delayed the plan and worked. The Yongping Prefecture, the capital of Jiangzhou, is located south of Jiangzhou. They can arrive safely in as little as one day or two days. Even if Xuanwu Jianmen learns that the death of the middle-aged man and others is probably beyond the reach of it.
The border between Yunzhou and Jiangzhou is full of mountains and undulating terrain, and it has always been an important battleground for military strategists in the north. Therefore, there is a famous Yanshan Pass here. Even if the world has been peaceful for a long time, Yanshan Pass has always been stationed with three thousand guards.
"It's really strange. When you go to Yanshan Pass, you need to go through strict inspections? Did you fight the Beilu again outside Mobei Pass?"
When Chen An and his party were about to pass through Yanshan Pass, Clinker found that passing business trips were being investigated at the pass. When they were lined up in a long queue to enter the pass, Sun PaoTou complained impatiently.
His voice was very small, and even Chen An could hear it clearly even when he was in the car.
"I heard that the barbarians outside the pass have been very honest recently. I haven't heard of wars outside the pass!"
After a while, someone in the queue responded.
"Can someone smuggled a large amount of prohibited materials to the Northern Army and asked the border troops to seize them?" Someone speculated.
"How is that possible! The four masters of Qiaohou, Cao and Kong, Jiangzhou, have sold so many prohibited materials to the Northern Territory over the years, but they have not seen the court treat them any more than they do to them!" Someone sneered.
"Hey! Grand Secretary Kong from our court cabinet comes from the Kong family of the four great masters. With the care of Grand Secretary Kong, who dares to investigate them?" someone sneered.
"No one investigated?! Have you forgotten Tang Xuanfu, who had just arrived in Jiangzhou half a year ago? He wouldn't he cooperated with the border army to investigate a batch of important prohibited materials from the four major families?!" Someone said loudly. "And if he hadn't hit the four majors hard to help the border army and the victims, the whole Jiangzhou would have been in chaos now!"
"Haha! Tang Xuanfu is just a person who seeks fame. I have heard that he and the border troops colluded with the Northern Barbarians privately. When the time is ripe, they will cooperate with the Northern Barbarians inside and outside, and go south to plunder the great rivers and mountains of our Dali in one fell swoop!" Someone said sarcastically.
"I don't believe it..."
For a moment, the entire queue was in a noisy group. Seeing this, the guard captain of Yanshan Pass quickly dispatched a team to suppress the restlessness of the team, so as not to further cause a chaotic scene.
When Chen An heard the conversations of the crowd, especially the content involving Tang Xuanfu, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought about this.
It seems that this Lord Tang Xuanfu is really hard to distinguish between loyalty and treacherous!
