"Well! Little brother, it's cool! That's the number!"
The old man nodded vigorously, but before that, he was obviously stunned for a moment.
Lu Fang almost gave himself a big mouth.
The price has gone up!
What the old man wanted to say just now was probably five hundred taels.
But now that he is wealthy, he no longer cares about these external things. He just curled his lips and said, "Then how are you going to save me?"
"Two ways!"
The old man raised two fingers again and said: "First, I will find a place for you to hide, and when the storm passes, you can leave on your own. Second, I can also send you where you want to go. Of course, if
If it’s too far, then the fare will need to be increased.”
Lu Fang looked back at Liang Siqi.
Liang Siqi nodded slightly.
Maybe Lu Fang didn't know where Sanquan County was, but she did.
Sanquan County is a county seat within the East County of Lizhou and adjacent to the West County of Lizhou. However, there is a green forest camp like the Chaling Army stationed in the county seat, which is for the Da'an Army.
If it is true, as the old man said, that those killers came from Sanquan County, it does mean that the imperial emissaries have already preceded them.
Because the place where they settled for the night was in the north of Sanquan County.
She knew that Lu Fang had no idea now, so she made this decision on Lu Fang's behalf.
Even if this old man is very mysterious, even if he comes with bad intentions, they can only choose to give it a try first.
Then Liang Siqi took over the conversation and said, "We are going to Tongchuan Mansion. How long will it take?"
"Tongchuan Mansion..."
The old man took out his ears and said disapprovingly: "Four days at most are enough."
Liang Siqi frowned and said, "We have to get there as quickly as possible."
In the past few days, she had talked a lot with Lu Fang on the way, and of course she knew Lu Fang's plan. She could also understand the urgency in Lu Fang's heart now.
"The sooner the better?"
The old man grasped their needs very keenly, rolled his eyes, and said: "Three days, I can send you to Tongchuan Mansion in three days. But..."
"hey-hey……"
He rubbed his hands.
The meaning is obvious.
Lu Fang was not surprised either.
Those who have the guts to engage in this business will naturally have the guts to slaughter the fat sheep. The blame is that I was too wealthy just now. If I were this old man, I would definitely not mind taking this opportunity to enrich my pockets.
He nodded and said: "As long as we can arrive within three days, I will give you six thousand taels! If it can be done faster, it is not impossible to add more money."
"become!"
The old man's eyes shone, "I promise to send you to Tongchuan Mansion as quickly as possible."
Then he waved his hand and said: "Follow me!"
He spread out his body and swept forward in the night.
Lu Fang carried Liang Siqi on his back again and followed quickly.
"Hey!"
After running only a few dozen meters, the old man in front suddenly turned back and grinned: "Your foot strength is still a little worse than mine. How about... I help you carry your mother-in-law?"
"Pooh!"
Liang Siqi spat lightly, her pretty face turning red.
Lu Fang rolled his eyes and said, "I'll do it myself!"
Something like that.
This old man doesn't look like a serious person!
The old man laughed again, shrugged his shoulders, said nothing more, and continued to lead the way.
It would have taken us about ten miles to drive like this using Qinggong. There was a mountain village ahead of us, faintly visible in the night.
The old man took Lu Fang and Liang Siqi directly to the village.
I don’t know which house’s door there was, but there was a knock on the door.
There was a sudden movement in the house, and then the light of an oil lamp came on. A red dot with a fire stick walked from the bedroom to the main hall and opened the door.
He is a middle-aged man with a bitter-melon face.
"Give me two horses, big business!"
The old man said directly to the bitter-faced middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man just looked at Lu Fang and Liang Siqi a few times, without asking any questions, nodded, walked out of the house, and walked towards the back.
There should be a stable at the back.
He quickly brought out two horses.
They are all Guizhou horses.
Lu Fang secretly marveled at how capable this old man really was.
They have their "stations" in such a small village. This old man obviously has a gang. And I think the background behind it is quite deep.
However, as long as this old man really just wants to run his own business, that's good news for him.
The greater the energy behind them, the faster they can get to Tongchuan Mansion.
Judging by time, Lu Liang should have been in Tongchuan Mansion for some time by this time.
"Here."
The old man took the reins of the two horses from the bitter-faced man, handed them to Lu Fang, and said: "I will take you to a shortcut later. The road is not easy, so you have to be careful. If it is because of your riding skills,
No, if you throw your mother-in-law into something bad, I won't cover the medical expenses."
Lu Fang nodded and said: "I don't know the senior's name yet."
The old man scratched his ear and said, "In this business, I don't care about names. You can just call me Lao Wang, or you can call me Senior Wang. Haha, I like to hear this."
Lu Fang raised his eyelids and was too lazy to say anything else.
Then he helped Liang Siqi onto the horse, climbed on the horse himself, and followed the old man out of the village again.
"Equestrian, add 300 skill points!"
"bite!"
"Congratulations to the host, the self-awakening skill of equestrian has reached its peak."
At the same time, he also improved his equestrian skills.
The proficiency level reaches 400 points.
Although the full value is still displayed as max, the level has reached its peak.
Lu Fang had a very good feeling, as if he could feel the breathing and heartbeat of the horse beneath him. Naturally, his driving ability was not comparable to what he had done before.
Even at night, it was effortless to keep up with the old man in front of him who was obviously good at horseback riding.
This made the old man in front couldn't help but turn around and look at it several times in surprise, and praised: "What a handsome riding skill, little brother!"
"good!"
Lu Fang said casually.
If it were normal, he might really be in the mood to chat a little more with this interesting old man. But now, he really doesn't have the mood.
Moreover, when riding on horseback, as long as you open your mouth, the night wind will blow into your mouth, which is not pleasant.
Throughout the night, Lu Fang and Liang Siqi didn't sleep a wink. Even when they took a short break, they were secretly wary of the old man.
The rest of the time is spent on the road.
Before dawn, the old man took Lu Fang and Liang Siqi into a village.
He said: "We have already reached Miangu City. Let's go in and eat something to fill our stomachs, and then change horses."
Apparently, they also have their station in this village.
Lu Fang did not raise any objection, but just said: "My wife and I don't need to eat. We carry the dry food on our own."
When traveling in the world, you always have to be careful.
The old man seemed to have seen through his thoughts, he just smiled and said nothing.
