Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 482: Iron Horse Ridge Golden Horse Village
He looked around quickly, but no one came out from the lush grass.

"It's okay, just untie it." Wen Shu prepared to dismount and untie the lasso.

Unexpectedly, a hand stretched out in front of him, "Don't get off, I'll do it." Qin Jingyang jumped off the shaft and went to the front to untie the trip rope tremblingly.

Wen Shu saw this and nodded inwardly, but he was a responsible person.
However, she did not stay in the car obediently, but got out of the car and sat on the shaft.

In the distant woods, behind some wild grass taller than humans, two men were lying on their stomachs.

He has a round face, a beard, and a big and strong body.

He has an oval face, thin eyebrows and small eyes, and is as thin as a monkey.

"Brother, they are going to untie the ropes, do you want to?"

"Didn't they say the Zhuo family caravan would come? Why is it that only a small shrimp is here?"

"Then do we still want it?" The thin man tightly grasped the bamboo whistle hanging around his neck.

They were just keeping watch, the main force was following behind.

Near the official road, there are only these two clumps of weeds where people can hide. If a large army comes, there will be no way to hide.

Therefore, if they encounter a "fat sheep", they will blow the bamboo whistle, and the main force will hear it and rush over in a short while.

"Never mind. It's just a broken carriage with not much oil. It's not worth sending out a large army. Let's wait for the caravan behind us."

"The one who can untie the rope is wearing silk. He must be a rich young man. He must have some banknotes on him. If he is not a big fat sheep, he must be a small fat sheep."

"How about we go and scare them first. Who knows, they might take out the money to save their lives."

The bearded man thought for a moment and said, "That's fine."

At that time, Qin Jingyang had just untied the lasso and was about to turn around to report to Wen Shu when he saw two men with knives rushing out from the bushes on the left.

"Hand over the money and I'll spare your life." The two big men pointed their swords at him.

Looking at Wen Shu again, he was sitting on the shaft of the cart, looking over here.

I told you we would run into bandits, but you refused to believe me. Now what should I do?

At this moment, Qin Yangyang's hair turned white with worry.

"I have no money." He said dryly after a while.

"You're kidding, you're wearing silk!" The bearded man moved the knife to his shoulder.

"This is the only valuable thing I have. I can take it off if you want."

Although it is embarrassing to lose clothes, it is nothing compared to life.

"Tell the truth. It seems you don't want to live." The tall man put the knife to his neck.

Qin Jingyang almost cried, "Really? He was rich, but everything was stolen in Haozhou City, leaving only this set of clothes."

"How can she walk here after her money was stolen?" the thin man asked, looking at Wen Shu. "That means she has money." After saying that, he walked straight towards Wen Shu.

"Dad, stay inside and don't come out." Wen Shu whispered to the bandit, and explained to him, "You misunderstood me. I only have two taels of silver on me, and I need to use the money in Yangzhou. Please show some mercy and let us go."

"Do you think I will believe you?" The skinny bandit approached and lifted Wen Shu's chin with the back of his knife: "I advise you to pay the money honestly. Otherwise, I will take you up the mountain and warm our boss's bed."

It looks like there's no way this situation can be resolved peacefully.

Wen Shu lowered her eyes and said in a trembling voice, "No, no, I'll take it out right away, take it out." She reached out her hand tremblingly to her waist.

The thin man was very proud when he saw that she had given in.

"Here, it's all here." Wen Shu took out a sachet from his waist.

When the thin man saw the sachet was bulging, he was overjoyed.

For a "small job" like this, the money obtained from the robbery can belong to them. This bag should have at least ten taels of silver.

"It would have been better if you had done this earlier." He reached out to take it. At this moment, Wen Shu suddenly attacked, grabbed the other's hand and pulled it in front of him, while a dagger was already placed on the other's neck.

This movement happened so quickly that neither the thin man nor the tall man had time to react.

"Let him go, otherwise your brother will become my dead soul." Wen Shu said to the tall man.

Unexpectedly, this young lady had some tricks up her sleeve. She wanted to scare and rob the two men of their money, but unexpectedly, she fell into the hands of the other party.

He pushed Qin Jingyang towards Wen Shu, "Then let's make a deal and release it together."

"We can't let it go, we can't let it go." Qin Jingyang looked at Wen Shu: "We can't let it go, if we let it go, we won't be able to get through."

This kid finally cleared his mind.

Of course Wen Shu wouldn't let go, her goal had not been achieved yet.

"Don't let go. I don't believe that this woman would dare to kill me in our territory," the skinny monkey shouted, "Brother Chen, blow the bamboo whistle and call the troops over. I want to see how they die."

"Let's not do that." The tall man advised, "Our target wasn't them anyway, so let's not make things more complicated."

When the brothers in the village go out, if they are just "small shrimps" with little benefits, they will be in trouble later.

"But if we let them pass so easily, will our Jinma Village's reputation be preserved? Will those caravans still be willing to pay us in the future?" Skinny Monkey analyzed for him.

When the tall guy heard this, it seemed to make sense.

They have no land and live on the money they get from robbing. If the caravans stop paying them in the future, they really won't be able to survive.

However, there are only two people on the other side, and they also have two people on their side, but they still have to mobilize a large group of people. They will definitely be laughed at in the future.

"Don't hesitate."

At this moment, there was a continuous sound of a horse-drawn carriage on the official road behind him, which did not sound like the sound of a single carriage.

"It's a caravan. It must be the Zhuo family caravan. Hurry, blow the whistle." The skinny monkey shouted.

This time, the tall man did not hesitate any more. He picked up the bamboo whistle hanging on his chest and started to blow it.

Wen Shu smiled slightly and finally decided to blow it.

She has been waiting for a long time.

After a while, the sound of people running was heard on the mountain road next to us.

The skinny monkey looked at Wen Shu proudly and arrogantly, "When all of us brothers come down, you will be the concubine who warms the bed, no matter what."

"Oh, is it so?"

When Wen Shu spoke, Qin Jingyang pushed the tall man away and quickly pulled out the short blade hidden in his boots.

As a well-known playboy in the capital, how could he not carry one or two pieces of equipment with him?

He pointed the sharp blade at the tall man while retreating towards Wen Shu.

When they retreated to the shaft of the cart, the large force on the mountain also rushed down. At a glance, there were at least forty-five people.

Looking at the caravan coming from behind, there were only about thirty or forty people.

It seems the winner has been decided.

"A useless thing was caught by a woman."

The person who spoke was a man in his early thirties, holding a three-foot-long sword in his hand.

Hearing this, the tall man lowered his head in embarrassment.

The skinny monkey didn't react at all. Instead, he said with a smile, "Boss, this young lady is very strong. I've been paying special attention to her for you. Do you think she's useful?"

The eldest boss carefully looked at Wen Shu for a few times and nodded with satisfaction, "You are a sensible boy. This look is indeed good."

"Boss Ge, it's been a long time since we last met. How have you been recently?" A manager ran out from the caravan at the back and bowed repeatedly to the bandits.
