The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 385 Dangerous Land
However, Mr. Gu is really thin-skinned and tender-skinned, and his fine-skinned skin is better than women's.If it weren't for those sword eyebrows, he would have thought she was a little girl!

Ma Er flirted in his heart, rode his horse and ran to the teahouse, after running for three or four hours, he was about to starve to death.

Gu Chengyu and the others stopped in front of the teahouse. When they got off the carriage, they saw a simple teahouse. There was only one stranger in it, and the rest were escorts from the escort agency.

Quickly looked around, the terrain here is open, the vegetation is yellow in winter, and there is no shelter.

Walking to Gu Wan's carriage, "Second Sister, the teahouse is not big, besides, you women must be inconvenient, why don't you just eat here!"

As soon as Gu Chengyu went in and observed, the carriages formed a circle with a small open space in the middle.Gu Wan and the others can get out of the carriage to rest, even sitting in the carriage is exhausting.

Gu Wan raised the curtain, and glanced at the tea room over there, it was indeed small and broken, with the wind blowing in all directions, and there were many men sitting around.

"This place is also very good, then you and your brother-in-law go get some food!" Gu Wan and Sun Xian helped their grandma out of the carriage, planning to rest here.

"Chengyu!" Ye Zhiqiu came down first, and then helped his second sister and mother out of the carriage, and they greeted each other.

"Ms. Ye, I'm afraid I'm going to make you and Ms. Ye feel wronged. There are too many people in the teahouse in front. Why don't you squeeze with my Auntie Sun and the others here."

Gu Chengyu hurriedly apologized, and going out with Ye Zhiqiu was usually arranged by Gu Chengyu, and this time was no exception.So if you don't take good care of it, you still need to say hello.

"Mr. Gu is too polite. How can we be particular about it when we are away from home? Besides, we are not noble people. Mr. Gu has already taken care of him very well. On the contrary, we have been bothering Mr. Gu, and we feel a little sorry."

Ye Mu actually felt very embarrassed. Gu Chengyu entrusted someone to buy the ticket to get on the boat, and Gu Chengyu also hired the escort and the carriage. They were caring for them along the way. How could they be ignorant and cause trouble for others?

"Ma'am, don't be polite!"

Gu Chengyu didn't look at Second Sister Ye. Ye Zhiqiu looked a little delicate. Gu Chengyu had also met his two older sisters, and they looked like Xiaojiabiyu.

Second Sister Ye is one year older than Ye Zhiqiu, and she will be fifteen years old after her birthday this year. According to usual, it should be a kiss.

However, when Ye Zhiqiu was going to the capital, his second sister was delayed.Gu Chengyu reckoned that the Ye family wanted to propose marriage to Second Sister Ye in the capital, but it might also be because Second Sister Ye wanted to earn some money for the family so that her younger brother could study and refused to propose marriage.

After all, her eldest sister is like this, she kissed two years later than other girls.

Since it's a big girl, the defense of men and women still needs to be taken care of.

"Brother Sun, time is running out, the bodyguards of the bodyguard bureau have already been served, let's hurry up too!"

Gu Chengyu and the others had to bring food for the female relatives and let the escorts wait, which is always bad.

"Guest officials, what do you want to eat?" The waiters in the teahouse saw Gu Chengyu and the others coming, their eyes lit up.

This is the official road, and there are many merchants traveling north and south.He has been working here for several years, and the young man in front of him looks like the son of a wealthy family, so he must be willing to buy food.

Gu Chengyu took a look at the table, while the bodyguards were sipping hot water, biting the bread in their hands, and there was a plate of peanuts and a plate of stewed pork on the table.

"What's there? Report to hear." Gu Chengyu greeted several bodyguards with a smile.

"Sauced pig's trotters, stewed pork, roast chicken, roast goose, all of these!" The guy smiled so much that he knew he was a big customer.

"Two servings of everything, add some rice, and finally pack two more, we have to take it away."

There are so many of them, and I don't know if they can meet food shops on the road later, and they can eat on the road after packing.

The bodyguards all took a look at Gu Chengyu. They often travel with bodyguards, and they don't often eat big fish and meat.

Gu Chengyu thought about it for a while, and if he had to trouble others along the way, it was right to give him some favors.

"Cut some roasted chicken for these two tables. I'm just asking you all. I just want to thank you for your care along the way."

As soon as Gu Chengyu finished speaking, he really gained the favor of these bodyguards.These are cheerful people, they all patted their chests and said that something happened along the way, just talk.

The food was brought to the female relatives, and grandma and the others had been waiting anxiously.

"Little Treasure! I'm so hungry, I thought I wouldn't stop eating at noon! There is meat porridge here, let's have some along with it." Seeing the roast chicken, Gu Wan was also happy.

Gu Chengyu smiled without saying a word, watched as Ming Mo took out a small black wooden box, opened it, took out a silver needle from the silk cloth wrapped inside, and inspected the dishes on the carriage one by one to make sure It is not poisonous, so I invite everyone to sit down and eat.

Seeing this, Gu Wan curled her lips, "Are you too careful?"

Gu Chengyu Shi Shiran sat down, "The world is dangerous, you don't go out often, naturally you don't know that there are many people in this world who harbor evil intentions. Our motorcade is very conspicuous, if it is not in order, someone will want to start it, so we should be careful to drive the boat for ten thousand years~ "

Sun Xian also agreed, "Chengyu is right, we'd better be careful."

There is no place in the teahouse, Gu Chengyu and the others can only make do with Gu Wan and the others.At this moment, I can't take into account any etiquette or impoliteness.

The carriage drove for the next four days, and Gu Wan's freshness had long since passed. The bumps along the way made her very uncomfortable, and she was leaning against the wall of the carriage with her eyes closed to rest.

Gu Chengyu raised the curtain and looked out, the past two days went very smoothly.Although it has been snowing for the past few days, the itinerary has not been missed.Fortunately, there was no rain mixed in, and the snow on the ground was not thick, otherwise the road would probably freeze.

The snow has stopped since yesterday, and the road is much easier to walk.

Gu Chengyu looked at the mountain in front of him. The mountain in front seemed to be split by an axe, and the mountain was cut off by a road.

Gu Chengyu observed carefully for a while, and this place looks like a dangerous place for marching in ancient times.If someone rushes down from the mountains on both sides, or the archers are ready, waiting for the convoy to pass by, they will definitely be outflanked, and the convoy is like a turtle in a urn.

He had some bad premonition in his heart, and the past few days have been going too smoothly.The man holding the dart looked like a fat merchant with big ears, but Gu Chengyu didn't ignore the calluses on his right palm, which should be the calluses left by holding knives or swords all year round.

"Ming Mo, go ahead and see if Boss Wu and the others have sent someone to investigate. If he doesn't send someone, you can come back to me and wait for my order."

It is impossible for people who walk darts all the time to turn a blind eye to such a dangerous place. Gu Chengyu thinks that Wu Biaotou should have a countermeasure.

"Yes!" Ming Mo knew that the young master has always been careful, so there is naturally a reason for the young master to have such worries.
