Traveling through the divine eagle: the first sword of Quanzhen

Chapter 7
"Why does this little Taoist priest follow us? It's really annoying to see him wearing a straw hat and lying on a cart pushed by two porters." The big sun couldn't help complaining.

"Who told him to give us a good horse for the head of the bodyguard?" replied the rider who was following him.

Hearing the voices of the two bodyguards, Li Qingwei didn't pay attention to them. He still covered his face with a straw hat and lay down on the moving bodyguard car.

He has been following this dart team for a few days, although the speed of the dart car is not as fast as riding a horse alone.But it is not so ostentatious, and there is a care on the way.

Just a few days ago when he was dining in the city, he was interrogated by local Han officials, and it was he who spent ten taels of silver to settle the matter.

Although there is no danger, this horse is always a burden.

Give it away, the people in the war in the north are living in dire straits.It is a luxury for the people to survive by themselves, let alone bring an animal.

Sell ​​it, because it is a Mongolian war horse, and no one dares to buy it. It is even more burdensome for ordinary horse dealers. Smuggling Mongolian war horses into modern times is the same as smuggling tanks.

It will even bring death to these horse dealers.

After all, they are all breadwinners, and no one wants to lose their lives.

Fortunately, he met a bodyguard team and overheard that they were escorting bodyguard vehicles to Luoyang.

Since he was going the same way with him, he discussed with the bodyguard about traveling together, and then sent the Mongolian war horse to the bodyguard to offset his travel expenses along the way.

The head of the escort looked at the fat and strong Mongolian war horse, and without asking where it came from, he accepted it and agreed to Li Qingwei's request to go on the road together.

After all, the Escort Bureau they were in helped the Mongols deliver military supplies when the Mongolian army was short of manpower.

It is not surprising that there are several Mongolian horses.

However, the head of the bodyguard still kept an eye out, and used a knife to gouged out the horseshoes that were specially used for Mongolian cavalry.

Although the current war horse walks with a limp.But it also saves a lot of trouble along the way.

And Li Qingwei looked thoughtfully at the big "He" on the escort cart.

After all, in the world of the Condor God, there is a person who is very sensitive to the word "He", and that person is Li Mochou.

But I didn't pay too much attention to it.

Li Qingwei thought that it was impossible for him to be so small, and met Li Mochou just as he went down the mountain.

Walking to a valley entrance, the head of the escort reined in the reins and stopped.The team followed suit and stopped.

He carefully looked at the surrounding vegetation and strange rocks, then waved his hand.

The two riders of the dart team stepped forward quickly and entered the valley first.

Li Qingwei also sat up at this time, they have also encountered this kind of thing in the past few days, and it also taught him a lot of knowledge.

The real escort agency is not at all the same as the escort agency he saw in the TV series.

In addition to their skills, these people are also very careful when they are escorting the darts. When the darts stop, there are people who watch the night to guard the goods.and

And when they get to some dangerous places, they will be extra careful.For example, in woodlands and mountainous areas, they will first send a team to the front to investigate.It's like sending out scouts before the two armies go to war.

But seeing the dignified expression of the head of the escort, and the cautiousness of the troopers.

Li Qingwei unconsciously became alert. According to the few days of getting along with him, although these people don't like him very much, they are indeed very competent bodyguards, especially the head of the bodyguard is very open-minded. not simple.

Li Qingwei's hand was already on his sword.

"Brother, what happened? Why is the head of the bodyguard looking so solemn?" Li Qingwei asked.

At this time, a middle-aged man standing behind the car with a nine-strand steel fork said: "It's nothing. The official road to Luoyang is not peaceful recently. In addition to Mongolian soldiers, there are also many green forest bandits running around. The area is a place haunted by green forest bandits. That's why the guards are so nervous."

The escort head rode on the horse and stared at the front, and the riders who went to investigate did not respond.After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the head of the escort said to everyone: "Everyone, don't move!"

"Not good! Everyone be careful!" Li Qingwei shouted loudly at this moment.

A feathered arrow flew towards the escort head's face quickly.The arrow flew across his face, and the tip of the arrow drew a thin wound on his face.

Then rows of feathered arrows came towards them.

With Li Qingwei's vigilance, everyone quickly took precautions. The escort head made a move of rooting an old tree, followed by a move of upside-down golden hook and quickly hid under the horse.

And Li Qingwei was a rolling dragon, turned over and got out of the car, and clapped together with several other bodyguards to overturn the cart. Everyone hid behind the car to avoid the round of arrow rain.

In the early morning, under the dense rain of arrows, the livestock were running away like crazy with several arrows in their bodies.

But there was no one to take care of them. Before that, Li Qingwei was still wondering why the bodyguard team did not use livestock to pull the carts, but hired some porters to push the carts.Now I finally understand.

If you use livestock to pull a cart, if the livestock is frightened, they will run out of control and run around, which is not easy to clean up.And sane people don't.

After the rain of arrows, a group of people rushed out quickly, led by a burly bearded man holding a steel rod.

And he was followed by dozens of thieves.They also rushed out together.

Seeing the group of thieves coming, the head of the bodyguard who was hiding under the dead horse kicked the fallen horse a foot away, then picked up the serial knife in his hand, and chopped down several horses in an instant. The first thieves rushed to the front.

But seeing that the opponent was approaching menacingly, the bodyguard didn't like to fight. At this moment, the bearded man threw the fine steel rod at him, and the bodyguard rolled back to avoid the blow.

The stick hit the ground fiercely, the soil on the ground was shaken up, and a deep pit appeared on the ground.The bearded man was also numb, he could hardly hold the steel rod in his hand, and he didn't continue to pursue the fleeing escort.

The head of the bodyguard turned over a few times, and came to join the crowd in front of the cart.

At this time, the thieves had already surrounded the crowd. Seeing this scene, the other bodyguards also stood in a circle orderly, protecting the goods and Li Qingwei in the middle.

The head of the escort looked at the dozens of people around him, as well as the big bearded man who was the leader. He looked at the potholes that had been smashed on the ground, and then at the shiny black steel rod in the big man's hands.

Li Qingwei was also standing on the overturned cart, holding the Chongyang Sword in his arms and silently looking at the bearded man in front of him.

At this time, the bearded man put the steel rod on his shoulder and said to the guards: "The king of hell will not accept ghosts without money. Money is nothing but Naiheqiao."

Although Li Qingwei didn't understand Jianghu cutscenes, he also understood from the literal meaning that the people in front of him were asking for money rather than life.I am advising these bodyguards to be aware of current affairs and leave the bodyguards behind.

Facing the incision, the head of the escort replied: "Thousands of taels of gold are not sold on the road, but on the streets to send old friends."

And the meaning of the head of the escort is also very clear, escorting is their job to support their families, not to mention life and death, even if it is a thousand taels of gold, they will not sell their "jobs", and the last "send off old friends on the cross street." This time, the gang of thieves raised their hands high, and they can make friends in the future.
