After a night of heavy drinking, Ding Sheng was also very drunk, so Wu Jian took him to meet the owner of the caravan. The owner's name was An Quantao [this name is too evil], and the guards generally called him An Lao with respect.
An Lao was about sixty years old, and he had some prestige in the branch alliance, so he wouldn't usually go with the group, but this time it was a batch of more important goods, so he came in person.
After seeing Mr. An, Ding Sheng and Wu Jian returned to the temporary tent set up by the caravan at the city gate.
After returning to the main team, when Ding Sheng asked about the important cargo, Wu Jian smiled mysteriously. After a while, he said: "This cargo is a living creature, and it is also a big beauty..."
"A great beauty?" When Ding Sheng heard this, he immediately lost interest. He originally thought that he could ask about some rare treasures. However, it must not be easy for Mr. De'an to personally escort the person.
In this way, the night passed peacefully.
The next day, the caravan set out early, and Wu Jian also called Ding Sheng to help out early in the morning. Although he was the escort of the general caravan, the caravan also had to help with some tasks such as transporting goods, otherwise it would only take a while to rely on labor alone.
I'm afraid I'll miss the time of my journey.
After carrying it for more than half an hour, a large group of people were bustling on the streets of South City Gate. These people were dressed in red robes, playing suona pipes and carrying a big red sedan chair leisurely.
When they arrived in front of the caravan, they stopped.
When Ding Sheng saw it, he knew that the beauty must be the bride waiting to be married in the sedan chair. She was probably going to marry in southern Shanxi, but he didn't trust the ordinary sedan bearers and servants to protect her, so he hired a caravan to escort her.
It's just that this scene is quite big. Looking all the way, it stretches to the end of the entire street.
I wonder which family's eldest daughter is getting married? Ding Sheng smiled slightly, shook his head and continued to help carry the goods.
After some rectification, the caravan finally set off before the hour, and Ding Sheng followed the entire caravan on horseback.
We had just left Saiweng City, and the journey was uneventful, so most of the guards were chatting and laughing, and most of the topics were about the bride to be married.
Ding Sheng was bored, but he heard something. It turned out that the bride was the daughter of the Tianjimen branch of Saiweng City. It was said that she was going to marry the young master of the Tianjimen branch of Mengdu, Guofeng, South Jin Dynasty. This was good, a daughter of a daughter.
, a young master, but a perfect match. But I don’t know if the two met and fell in love.
However, Ding Sheng also heard some other news about the bride. It was said that the young master of Xuanmen Pavilion, the first sect in southern Jin Dynasty, had great affection for this girl, but he had no choice but to leave the fallen leaves deliberately and the flowing water to be ruthless. The girl was afraid
She didn't like the other person, so she married the young master of Fengmengdu Tianjimen branch.
Naturally, Ding Sheng had only heard of this news, and he was not interested in it at all.
The caravan walked, but it took most of the day to cover less than a hundred miles. It seemed that the caravan slowed down specially to escort the bride.
With nothing to do, Ding Sheng looked for an opportunity to ask Wu Jian: "Old Wu, this is my first time here in southern Shanxi. I wonder if there are any interesting things happening here recently?"
When Ding Sheng asked, Lao Wu also spoke enthusiastically, but after talking for a long time, there was no news that Ding Sheng wanted to get.
It seemed that it was really difficult to get information about Yuan Huo. Ding Sheng decided in his heart that after the caravan escort was over, he would go and search for it alone.
Ding Sheng was planning in his mind when a commotion came from ahead. Ding Sheng couldn't help but look up and saw a gust of dust and wind and the roar of horse hooves about a mile away.
As soon as this situation occurred, the guards at the front of the caravan nervously took out their weapons and surrounded the goods and sedans behind them.
"What's wrong?" Ding Sheng couldn't help but ask Wu Jian.
Wu Jian's eyes were fixed on the distance. After a while, he grinned and said, "It's okay, they're just some little Luoluo."
"Little Luoluo?" Ding Sheng immediately understood, it should be some bandits and robbers nearby, right?
"Hmm? Xiao Sheng, are you interested?" Wu Jian couldn't help but smile when he saw Ding Sheng's expression, patted him on the shoulder, then turned to the other brothers in the team and said, "Why don't you go and send them away so that brothers can see what they are doing?"
Our Xiao Sheng’s strength!”
"Uh..." Ding Sheng didn't expect that Wu Jian would suddenly make such a request, but he immediately understood. He was testing himself to see how much he weighed. At this moment, other people also looked at Ding Sheng, their eyes filled with worry.
Eager. It seems that these men who have been drawing blood on the edge of the knife all the time still care about strength after all, otherwise even if they are introduced by Lao Yang, they will not give half a face.
Seeing Ding Sheng's look, Old Wu thought he was hesitating, so he couldn't help but leaned over and whispered: "You don't have to worry, these little Luoluo are just martial artists. I also know their heads, they are only four-star big."
The strength of the martial arts master. Whenever he comes here, his Luo Luo will harass him, and we are all used to it!"
A four-star martial artist? Wouldn't that be higher than his current status? Ding Sheng thought of this and understood completely in his heart. This is not to let Ding Sheng show his true skills to everyone, so what is it?
Forget it, let them show you a little bit of your strength, so that you won't have to take action again when you encounter such a little Luo Luo! Ding Sheng thought of this, he cupped his fist at Wu Jian, smiled slightly and said: "Haha, then I will
It’s embarrassing!”
Seeing Ding Sheng's confident face, Wu Jian was slightly startled, then laughed and patted Ding Sheng's shoulder without saying anything more.
Ding Shengtima came step by step in front of the entire caravan. Looking at the horse thieves getting closer and closer, a smile gradually appeared on his face.
One hundred feet, fifty feet, thirty feet...
Ding Sheng silently counted the approaching distance of the horse thieves. When he got close, he suddenly let out a low shout, jumped up from the horse's back, and then pounced on the entire group of horse thieves.
Seeing that Ding Sheng actually gave up his horse to fight with the horse thief, everyone including Wu Jian couldn't help but be shocked.
You know, although the strength of these horse thieves is not very good, their horseback skills are very good. With the help of the power of horses, they are often comparable to great martial artists. Ding Sheng, a three-star great martial artist, abandoned his horse with his bare hands and rushed in alone. Isn't this too outrageous?
Taking risks?
But before anyone could worry, they saw Ding Sheng falling into the group of horse thieves. He was punching and kicking, and his energy was flying. The horse thieves seemed to have lost their strength, and screamed from the back of the horse.
They fell one after another, and the scene was extremely chaotic for a while.
In less than a moment of tea, nearly half of the horse thieves were knocked off their horses by Ding Sheng. At this moment, Ding Sheng was also surrounded by the horse thieves.
