Chapter 25 One word difference, heaven and earth
Chang Minyue had no doubt that if she didn't agree to give away half of the goods, this man would kill him without hesitation and snatch the goods away.
Although she knew Chang Minyue's identity, she was not afraid at all.
This person is either bold or careful!
Or a crazy fool!
Looking at the two corpses on the ground, Chang Minyue shook her head gently. Although the expression on her face was a little gloomy, there was no trace of panic or discomfort.
I've been to Mobei seven times in the past few years. How many times have I never seen a dead person?
In the Gobi desert and the vast grasslands, there is always a shortage of dead people.
Stepping out of the yurt, I saw a few men with fierce looks loading the camels. The Chang family servants who had just been rescued could only stand at a distance, not daring to say anything in anger.
People who are used to running around Mobei can clearly feel the murderous aura emanating from these men.
Zhou Dingshan frowned, without much joy on his face. When Tie Mo proposed to force the Chang family's camel team to carry ordinary goods, he thought it was a bit ridiculous, but the result was so smooth.
Chang Minyue agreed so happily that it made Zhou Dingshan feel a little unreal.
"Brother Tie, my little brother, Miss Suwenchang, is as sharp as a man and as resolute as a man. Why did she just agree to give up half of the goods to us in just a few words this time?"
Tie Mo rubbed his chin and shook his head in confusion, "I also think that woman agreed too happily. She originally wanted to threaten her."
"Since she doesn't care much about these goods, it proves that there should be something more important to her than the goods. This can also explain why Kang Zhendai broke his skin and let Hei Po intercept the Chang family's camel team."
"This...Brother Tie, Tia said before that Kang Zhendai did this because he wanted to forcibly intercept Chang Minyue and force the Chang family to agree to a marriage."
"Marriage? I'm afraid Tia doesn't know the truth. If you think about it carefully, even if Chang Minyue is sent back to Zhangjiakou after such an unpleasant thing happens, Chang Minyue will agree to marry Kang Zhendai? Under normal circumstances, if Kang Zhendai makes such a fuss,
, it can only make the marriage more difficult. Moreover, what is the reason that makes Chang Minyue take the risk of going north to barter in winter? "
Zhou Dingshan was suddenly startled and couldn't help but look at Chang Minyue at the curtain of the yurt.
Yes, the Chang family is not a poor military household in Anzhuangbao, so there is no need to take too many risks for money. But the Chang family chose to barter in winter, and the leader of the team was the apple of the Chang family's eye.
This barter is definitely not simple.
Just as he was thinking about things, there was a sound of shouting and cursing in the distance, and several military households had a violent conflict with the Chang family's servants.
The servants of the Chang family formed a circle, guarding a brown wooden box.
Shi Hu took off his animal skin hat, patted his bald head, and kicked a Chang family servant to the ground angrily.
"You bitch, I've just fallen in love with that little box, let me out of it. Believe it or not, I'll kill you all?"
"No, I can't give you this box."
Shi Hu picked up the hammer on the ground with a sneer on his face. The remaining military households all pulled out their swords. Since they had just killed someone, the blood on the blades had not dried yet.
Chang Minyue frowned and almost trotted to Tie Mo.
"Tell your people to stop. You can take other goods as you like, but not that box!"
Chang Minyue's attitude was tough and there was no tone of discussion at all.
"What if I insist on that box?"
"Then you kill all of us now, and then the goods will all be yours!"
Chang Minyue snorted sarcastically, brushed the hair beside her ears with her delicate hands, and slowly turned her face away. Although she was angry, she had a strange sense of beauty.
Tie Mo and Zhou Dingshan looked at each other and involuntarily looked at the small box.
It seems that the previous guess was correct, the contents of this box are definitely not ordinary goods.
"That's all, why are you acting so desperate? Since that box is so important to you, I won't take it."
Chang Minyue narrowed her beautiful eyes, but she couldn't say any words of thanks.
Tie Mo shouted in the distance, and Shi Hu and others reluctantly put away their weapons.
Chang Minyue felt a lot more relaxed about saving the box. At this moment, she had the time to look at Tie Mo and Zhou Dingshan carefully. She glanced twice and focused on Zhou Dingshan.
"I think I've seen you before...Have you followed Master Zhou to Zhangjiakou before?"
Zhou Dingshan nodded sadly, "Miss Chang has a good memory, the villain Zhou Dingshan, Master Zhou is my father."
Chang Minyue was a little surprised and said with some confusion: "Since you are Master Zhou's beloved son, why do you want to imitate others and go north to barter? Master Zhou didn't stop you?"
"My father has passed away!"
Zhou Dingshan's face became stern and he turned his head to look away, obviously not wanting to talk more.
Chang Minyue sighed apologetically. She did not expect Zhou Guozhong to be dead. When she returned to Yuci half a year ago, she passed by Shouyang and met Zhou Guozhong.
Zhou Guozhong was in good health, but he just said he was gone.
Fate is really unpredictable, no one knows what will happen tomorrow.
"Master Tie, right? Where is Black Poison?"
"Black Poison is dead!"
"Really dead?"
"If you don't believe me, do you want me to dig out his head and let you see?"
Chang Minyue turned her face slightly and looked at that honest smiling face. It was hard to imagine that the seven wolves that roamed the grassland would fall into this man's hands, and even Hei Du's head was chopped off.
"Who are you?"
"We? The military household of Anzhuangbao!"
"Do you think it's fun to deceive people like this? If my military household in the Ming Dynasty were so ruthless, would the Mongolians still dare to go south to harvest grass and valleys?"
Chang Minyue naturally didn't believe it. Every military household in the Ming Dynasty was poor and had low combat effectiveness. Many military households were even less effective than the people in some places. If they saw horse bandits, they would only be slaughtered.
Tie Mo shrugged and said with a noncommittal smile: "Believe it or not, what Tie Mo said is true. Maybe, given Miss Chang's living environment, she will never be able to understand us."
Looking at the blue sky, the sunshine is still there, but not warm. Tie Mo's voice is rough and lost.
"You will never understand what will happen to a group of sheep when there is no hope in life. You go north to sell goods to make money, but we do it for the hope of living."
Tie Mo would never forget what happened in Anzhuang Castle for the rest of his life. There were not too many military disasters and there were no consecutive droughts, but people starved to death constantly happened there.
When poor military households open their eyes every day, the first thing they think about is whether they have food to eat.
What happened to Uncle Sanpao's family made the military households understand the truth. If they don't do something, they will starve to death tomorrow.
And Tie Mo gave the military households a hope.
Although we are poor, we do not have nothing. At least we still have a life to die. As long as we fight for this life, we can give our family a hope of life.
"Survival and life are just one word apart, in heaven and on earth!"
Tie Mo smiled self-deprecatingly. Only when you truly feel this era can you truly understand the meaning of this sentence.
Only in despair will a flower that crosses the underworld be born from a heart that has nothing.
The underworld is in the heart, open the way with blood!
Tie Mo walked away with Zhou Dingshan. Chang Minyue recalled those words, and her heart was deeply shocked.
That heaviness, that coldness, and those words actually came from that down and out young man.
