Chapter 288: There is an ominous feeling
…
Dongyu City is quite far away from Yuefeng City, and it would take at least four days at the speed of the escort team.
Moreover, apart from some inns and taverns, there were no towns passing through during the journey. This meant that they had to eat and sleep in the open during these four days, which naturally greatly increased the chance of escort robberies.
However, nothing happened along the way for three days, which was beyond Zeng Tiancai's expectation.
After these two days of traveling together, Qin Li'er has become familiar with the members of the escort team, and has a true understanding of the influence of Qianjun Escort Bureau in the world. She is also impressed by the identity of the young escort master Zeng Tiancai.
On this day, after resting in the tavern, the escort team continued on the road. In the evening, the escort team came to a stop in front of a cliff. This was a rather steep place, and the road was only slightly larger than a carriage.
The width is like a cliff on one side and an abyss on the other side.
Looking at the misty abyss, Qin Li'er felt a sense of panic. She simply jumped off the horse and looked at the darkening sky. She couldn't help but said to Zeng Tiancai with some worry: "It's getting dark soon. Let's go this way."
Will the road be dangerous?"
Zeng Tiancai was also a little hesitant. This dangerous road was not short. It would take until nightfall to pass. If he couldn't pass before nightfall, he would have to spend the night halfway. He didn't have the confidence to spend the night in such a dangerous place, and no one knew about it.
I know if Dark Dragon Hall will take action here.
After pondering for a moment, he said: "I'd better ask Uncle Qiao. He should have walked this road. Maybe he has an idea."
At this time, Uncle Qiao had already walked over. He cupped his hands towards Zeng Tiancai and said, "Young escort master, the place here is too small to camp. Why don't we go a little further? I know there is a place not far ahead."
The flat land is quite spacious enough to accommodate these carriages, and we can camp there and rest. It is surrounded by three stone walls, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and we are not afraid of being robbed. It is still early, so I believe we can get there before nightfall."
Zeng Tiancai nodded, "Then follow what Uncle Qiao said."
"Yes!" Uncle Qiao hurried to the front of the escort team and gave an order to everyone to be careful about falling off the cliff. He rushed at full speed and tried to reach the flat ground before dark.
The night gradually deepened, and the long escort slowly moved forward on the winding and dangerous road. Otherwise, Zeng Tiancai felt slightly depressed. He had an ominous feeling, as if something was about to happen.
After taking a look at the convoy in front, he had no choice. The road was too small and there was no room for him to rush ahead. He could only remind everyone to be more vigilant.
After walking for a while, Uncle Qiao's voice of "arrived" finally came from the front of the escort team. When all the carriages of the escort team turned into the flat land that looked like a cave dwelling, he took a long breath.
After looking around, the flat land was a large open space dug out of the stone wall. Sure enough, as Uncle Qiao said, except for the entrance, there were stone walls on three sides, and even the top was a stone wall.
Qin Li'er was also amazed. It was not easy to dig such a big hole in such a place.
Uncle Qiao arranged for some people to guard the entrance. He looked at Qin Li'er making a fuss and smiled:
"This place was dug by caravans coming and going. There is no suitable resting place before and after this dangerous road, especially caravans carrying goods, so I don't know who dug such a hole here!"
