I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 73 These killers are too persistent
Three days later.

Autumn is crisp and clear, as always.

Li Ran squinted on the carriage for a while, and got a report from the front. It turned out that he found the mark left by Sun Wu on the road.He hurriedly got up and went to check.

"Great, with these marks, we can know the situation ahead."

After confirming the route of Jiwang and Jixun, he immediately ordered everyone to speed up their pace and make sure to catch up with Jiwang and Jixun before they arrived in Weiguo.

However, after all, he still overestimated the foot strength of these horses. After driving for two days, more than a dozen horses were so tired that they fell to the ground. Even Li Ran couldn't help feeling extremely anxious.

He had calculated thousands of times, but he never expected that he would be put together by these horses.

You must know that each of these grain carts is pulled by two horses side by side.And there are not many horses he can replace now, so once these horses have a large-scale rest, it will fall into a vicious circle.

In this case, not to mention catching up with Jiwang and Jixun, it would be worrying to reach Weiguo safely.

"These damned horse dealers!"

When I was buying horses in Zhengyi, I had to tell him that since this time I was going to travel a long distance and carry heavy loads, I had to choose a batch of good horses for myself.

But who knew it would be over in a few days?Li Ran couldn't help but secretly cursed these horse dealers for being unscrupulous.

But actually?How can this blame those horse dealers?All these fine horses on the market in Zheng State came from Qin State after all.Qin Guoyuan is thousands of miles away, how could he collect so much in a short time?
Besides, even if they sell all the exquisite items for Jiyue and the dowry jewelry that she entrusted her servants to secretly take out from the mansion, they can only afford to buy all the grain, and if they want to buy good horses, that would be too much. Stretched.

In desperation, Li Ran had no choice but to slow down his journey, trying to safely transport the food to Weiguo safely.

He knew that if he was in a hurry, he might not be able to reach Weiguo, and all these horses would have to finish playing.

Three days later, when Li Ran saw the mark left by Sun Wu again.He affirmed that his judgment was correct again this time. The grain carts escorted by Ji Wang and Ji Xun were really not loaded with grain, but were covered with a layer of grain and covered with sand and gravel.

This also proves that Shu Niu sent people out of the city in the middle of the night that night, in order to defraud his two younger brothers by substituting the food truck for the sacrifice family.

Poor these two brothers, they thought that what they were escorting was food, but they still didn't realize it until now, and rushed to Weiguo all the way.

"That's not right... If that's the case, why didn't Changqing try to delay them?"

At this time, Li Ran became suspicious again. According to his previous plan with Sun Wu, as soon as it was confirmed that there was something wrong with this batch of goods, he would immediately hold them back.

But now he still couldn't see Sun Wu and his party. Li Ran knew that something must have happened ahead...

"My lord, there is a stream not far ahead, which can be used as a place to camp tonight."

Hearing the report from the servant, Dang even has confirmed the camping place for tonight.These horses have driven for a whole day, and resting in a place with water and grass is the most important thing.Li Ran is now counting on them to persist until Weiguo.

At dusk, Li Ran asked his servants to set up the tent and piled up all the grain trucks around the tent to block them.As for burying pots and making meals, Chu Dang was born as a cook, and he was the best at such things, so he went without Li Ran's orders.

Li Ran sat in a carriage and looked at the hills in the distance. The setting sun was hanging on the hills, exuding the last ray of warmth.

But at this moment, there was a very short vibration on the ground!
"Boom boom boom!"

I only heard a burst of violent hoofbeats approaching from far away, and I arrived in front of me in the blink of an eye!
Li Ran turned his head suddenly, and saw a group of warriors in different clothes riding fast horses to kill him suddenly!
But when this group of people came close, they suddenly stopped in their tracks and only surrounded the entire convoy.Knowing that the villain was coming, Chu Dang hurried back to Li Ran, holding a huge spatula in front of him.

"Who is Li Ran?"

One of the warriors led out on horseback and shouted to them through the grain cart.

On Li Ran's side, there was silence for a moment.Since this group of people were recruited temporarily, they only knew that they were hired by the priest's family, but they didn't know Li Ran.Therefore, for a while, no one responded.

After a while, Li Ran came out from Chu Dang's side, and shouted to the warrior:
"I am Li Ran, who are you?"

"Oh, you are Li Ran?"

"Since you found it, come with us."

The warrior sat on the horse, looking down at Li Ran, his face was full of arrogance.

"Take a trip? But where are you going?"

Li Ran asked indifferently as before.And the warrior was not in a hurry when he heard the sound, he just said lightly:

"My master has explained that your life must be taken by him personally, so you'd better be sensible and come with us. In this way, maybe you can live a few more days. If not, today is your the time of death!"

At the end of the conversation, these people all held their weapons in their hands, but their fierce fangs were still exposed.

Ji's!These must be Ji's killers!
The only person in this world who wanted to take his life with his own hands was Ji Sun Yiru, he really couldn't think of another person.

"I didn't expect you to be so persevering! You chased me all the way, and you are so tireless. How admirable!"

His face darkened.

He counted silently just now, there are at least a hundred warriors in this group, and he doesn't even know if there are any others behind.So if once he really started to make a move, he would be a little worried now.

"Hehe, it's too good to be true. We've come from a long way. Mister won't let us make this trip in vain, will you?"

"Stop talking nonsense, are you going or not?!"

The leader of the warrior was also obviously impatient. After hearing a very crisp metallic sound, the warrior drew his sword out of its sheath, and the hundreds of warriors behind him were all eager to try.

However, Li Ran's eyes turned around at this time, and he stared at the warrior up and down for a while.

"It seems that you will not cry when you see the coffin."

"on!"

Seeing that Li Ran was silent, the warriors were about to strike immediately.

But at this moment, a tall figure suddenly jumped out from behind Li Ran, and then a scream came out beside the stream.

The leading warrior fell directly into a pool of blood, and the one standing aside was Chu Dang.

"It's rude to talk to Mr. like that! Damn it!"

Chu Dang weighed the spatula in his hand, the flesh on his face kept shaking.

But this time, seeing that the leader was killed, those warriors had nothing more to say, so they picked up the guy and rushed towards Chu Dang.

Li Ran stood there in astonishment, unable to recover for a long time, until those servants swarmed to protect him and retreated, he finally realized.

"Boss, what can be solved with words, why do you need to do it..."

Originally, he was thinking about how to solve the matter without doing anything and without going with these people, but who knew that Chu Dang, a fierce man, would just go up and poke a hornet's nest directly, and now nothing he said would work.

"kill!"

Hundreds of warriors rushed towards Chu Dang together.

I saw Chu Dang picked up a dead wooden stake from the ground horizontally again, and swept it continuously. The warriors on the horse lost their balance and fell to the ground one after another.

Then, without knowing where Chu Dang got his brute strength, he dropped the wooden stake and crushed several people.Then, he rushed straight towards a horse abruptly.

"Wow!"

Since the saddle had not been invented in that era, it was too difficult to be as stable as Mount Tai on horseback.Therefore, after hearing the neighing of the war horse for a while, the warrior riding on it immediately couldn't hold on.Immediately, he flew upside down, hit a boulder directly and died with a broken head.

This was not over yet, Chu Dang rushed back to Li Ran's side, holding the bronze sword handed over from the opponent in his left hand, and holding a spatula in his right hand, blocking the exit with a grain cart, and guarding the exit alone.

Seeing this, the warriors outside had no choice but to get off their horses and fight.Chu Dang, on the other hand, gave Li Ran a vivid performance of what it means to be one person in charge.

"Really a god!"

Even Li Ran couldn't help being dumbfounded when he saw this.I have to admire that Chu Dang really has unlimited brute force.
