Chapter forty-one
A clear voice like pearls falling on a jade plate came from the carriage.
"Shunzi, have you heard everything clearly?"
The half-grown boy continued in a low voice.
"It's clear, they have ordered a lot of new wheat. I'm afraid there are fifty carts of it, just loading it!"
"Continue to monitor."
"good!"
In the carriage, the red lady rubbed her little hands and said excitedly.
"Run away without paying the reward? Can you run away?"
"My aunt will make you spit it out with profit."
Lady Bai smiled lightly and said, "Sister, if he really gives me a reward, will you let him go?"
"That's impossible!" The red lady straightened her pretty face.
"We who do business without capital never make mistakes."
"I finally caught a big fat sheep, how can I let it go?"
"There are more than a thousand dans of new wheat, enough to feed the old and young in the mountains for half a year!"
The White Snake reminded: "Bury two more nails along the way and keep an eye on them!"
"I don't know why, but I always feel uneasy."
"This fat sheep won't turn into a fat tiger, right?"
"Hehehe, fat tiger, hum...then I'll kill it too!"
…
The fat sheep in the city are ignorant.
On the contrary, the news that the troupe had left Anding City reached Lao Guo of the Liu family.
Wu Qi went out to pee.
He came back shaking his head.
"Brother Lin, you really made your guess right."
"In this life, I'm afraid I'll never meet a red lady or a white lady again!"
"As you said, people play it as a farewell performance."
gone?
Shen Lin laughed to himself.
This is a different time and space, a different world.
Not that coincidental.
At least in her previous life, White Snake was a snake demon.
People are busy looking for Xu Xian.
How can I have the time to become bandits with the red lady?
Good to go.
It also prevents you from thinking wildly.
The group had enough to eat and drink.
He drove his horse-drawn carriage and ox-cart to the Huitong Grain Shop on South Street.
Good guy, there are fifty oxcarts in a row.
Almost the entire alley was filled.
Shen Lin said hello to the shopkeeper of Huitong.
"Old money, if prices stay the same."
"I still need to purchase three to four batches of wheat."
"In two months, if you send it to Lushuihe Village, I will take it all!"
Time passed.
At this price, you are probably not willing to sell it to us.
Of course, big grain merchants pay attention to fast in and fast out.
There are many types of food available.
You don’t necessarily have to keep one breed to death.
Shopkeeper Qian smiled and cupped his hands.
"Then it's settled. I will deliver it on time. Thank you Mr. Shen for taking care of it."
Old money doesn't think about it.
How can a small village use four to five thousand Dan of grain?
So what if it's enough to feed two thousand people for a year?
The landlord, the wealthy man, stocked up on food and didn't feel panicked.
Lao Qian knows it all too well.
"It's a good idea!"
The fourth boy waved his riding crop!
His carriage led the way.
The mighty procession left the west gate.
The guards moved forward one by one and took out their equipment from the carriage.
Crossbow in hand, knife at waist.
You still have to be careful!
The coachmen summoned by the grain store had long been accustomed to this.
The stronger the Shen family's guards are, the safer everyone is, right?
However, with such a large convoy, how could any blind thief dare to rob it?
Anding County is no more chaotic than under Xiongzhou.
Don't talk about horse thieves here.
The mountain bandits and road bullies who had a bit of a microclimate were all wiped out by Fat Cap's men.
Therefore, there is a reason why the city gates are laxly guarded.
Seventeen or eight miles out of the city, we walked through the plains and hills.
In front of you is the only mountain in the west of the city.
Erlang Peak is only three hundred feet high.
There was originally an Erlang Temple on the mountain.
The legend is no longer testable.
In recent years, the popularity of incense has gradually declined.
I heard that all the temple blessings, gods and goddesses were gone.
The bare Erlang Temple collapsed a lot and became a place where mountain rats and wild foxes scurry.
Mechanic time traveler Shen Lin has no fighting knowledge at all.
A tree on the top of the mountain suddenly fell.
But he was at a loss.
Those who know how to do it will definitely scream.
Message tree.
There is an ambush!
After turning the mountain pass, the scene in front of us surprised everyone in the convoy.
I saw two carriages in the distance that had been dismantled to pieces.
On the ground, there were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground.
More than thirty excited bandits were chasing the two women, shouting and brandishing swords and guns.
Liang straightened his eyes and exclaimed.
"Brother Lin, it's the white lady and the red lady!"
"They encountered horse bandits."
What?
Horse bandit?
Where did the horse bandits come from in Anding County?
There are more than thirty horse bandits, and two to three hundred county squadrons can't defeat them, right?
"Run!"
I don’t know who shouted.
Many of the cart drivers recruited by the grain merchants immediately jumped off the carts and fled in all directions.
There are old and experienced people who still don’t forget to shout.
"Up the mountain, up the mountain!"
"You tough guy, can you outrun a horse on flat ground?"
"Hey, hey, Mr. Shen, let's go quickly!"
"Saving one's life is important. Food and other things are all external things."
I go?
Giving up so easily?
Have you received special training?
Shen Lin also fell into a brief trance.
But he was born with a big heart.
So scared!
Aren't they just thirty bandits?
We have ten compound bows here.
Eight fully armed guards, plus the loyal leader Liang Zizhong.
"What should I do? Brother Lin!"
Lao Liang was somewhat panicked.
He has killed countless beasts in his life.
kill?
I really haven't done it before.
Shen Lin squinted his eyes tightly, a cold light appearing.
"Line up in two formations, prepare your crossbows!"
"Remember, aim for the big target."
"A horse thief without a horse is nothing."
Well, what our young master said makes sense.
A group of newcomers who were originally nervous were finally not so panicked.
The Red Lady sisters were in disheveled clothes and had already run within a hundred steps.
Panicking, he got closer.
You can even see the tears.
"Help..."
"Save...save our Chen family troupe..."
Horse thieves are very arrogant.
He didn't take Shen Lin's side and the two rows of people seriously at all.
"Little lady, don't run away!"
"Hahaha, what a beautiful little lady, it would be great to take her back and make her a stronghold wife. No one is allowed to shoot arrows."
"The leader of the village has an order not to hurt the little lady."
"Wahahaha, capture alive, capture alive!"
…
The two women ran even faster, reaching fifty steps.
The fastest group of horse bandits chasing them also entered the hundred-step shooting range.
Liang Zizhong felt that these two girls were so pitiful.
How can you ignore death?
"Brother Lin?"
Shen Lin slashed with his right hand.
"shoot!"
Whoosh!
"Second row, shoot!!"
Red Snake and White Snake could only see a few chills passing over their heads.
Fierce power.
It makes one's heart sink.
Look back.
God!
Several horses approaching suddenly fell down.
The knight on horseback was thrown far away.
It's over.
This time it’s a big loss!
I still don’t know if anyone was injured or died?
The red lady's red and phoenix eyes were instantly bloodshot.
She jumped high into the air.
"Leverage!"
The white lady suddenly stopped and threw her hands together one after another.
Just like performing high ropes in the morning.
A red shadow turned somersaults and shot out with electricity.
The three-foot Qingfeng was approaching Shen Lin.
Too close, too fast!
