Unexpectedly, when he returned from a long trip, before he could thank the Tai family, this happened.

As the bonfire crackled, a steward boiled hot water and brought it over. It was rare to see the master so anxious and he advised him, "Shopkeeper, don't be too anxious. Everyone is counting on you to make up your mind on everything. We're going to do it soon." When we get home, we can talk about everything."

Chen Zhao took the hot water, blew the heat away and took a sip, and then calmed down, "That's it, let's wait for the news to come back."

Moreover, the guard leader brought four helpers and quietly followed the Jianghu people's carriage. They did not dare to make any unusual noise for fear of being discovered.

Fortunately, the snow is thick in winter, covering up the sound of horse hooves.

The southbound carriage tracked until five or six miles away before turning off the main road and turning towards a mountain nest.

The guard commander guessed that the Jianghu people were going to stay overnight, so he quickly hid the horses with his brothers, and then quietly went over.

The three Jianghu people originally wanted to find a ruined temple or a single-family home, but unfortunately this area was really remote, so they had no choice but to choose a mountain nest. They used the protruding rocks to block the cold wind on one side, and built a bonfire on the other side relying on the carriage.

The receptionist took out a package of dry steamed buns, stuck them on a branch to heat, and asked, "Do you need to feed the two boys in the car? They may starve to death!"

The old man waved his hand, "It's just one day to avoid starving to death, let's see tomorrow night. Be careful if they are full enough to have the strength to shout and cause trouble again."

The big man couldn't help but mutter, "If you listen to me, you can take them back with you. Let's hurry up and we can deliver the goods in a few days. It's really a drag to drive the carriage like this."

The old man glared angrily, "You idiot, how many times have I told you, the employer wants to live, live! Originally, they wanted that girl from the Tai family, but you were drunk and delayed for a day, and missed the opportunity. Caught two boys.

"In this case, the employer doesn't necessarily give you money, but you actually have to bring people over! Do you hate the money and bite your hand?"

The big man reluctantly shut up, and the receptionist gloated while chewing the steamed bun, and was kicked by the old man again, "Go to the car and have a look. The two boys should be awake. Give them a few mouthfuls of hot water. Don't let them freeze." died."

The receptionist was impatient and took the cup from the big man's hand. He reluctantly grabbed the snow, and when it melted and steamed, he went to open the carriage door.

In the carriage, Yonglu and Yongyue were always awake. Even when the carriage and the convoy crossed each other, they were still confused about whether to kick the carriage or not.

But if they meet unexpectedly, even if the people in the motorcade hear something moving in the carriage, they probably won't ask anything. Now I can only count on my family members to come all the way!

As the hours wore on and the night grew darker, their hope of rescue grew smaller and smaller.

When they were on their way, the three charlatans discussed robbing the convoy. The brothers couldn't help but be happy. If the people in the convoy were alert and caught the three charlatans, they would be saved.

But life is not easy. If the convoy is unprepared and is harmed by Jianghu people, not only will they not be rescued, but so many people will be implicated...

The two of them thought about it and were really anxious. Yong Yue couldn't help but cry first. Yong Lu finally came to him and hugged his brother to comfort him, but he also cried.

The receptionist opened the car door and saw two crying little faces in the light of the fire. He curled his lips and paid less and less attention to the two boys.

The water in the water cup was very hot. He poured half a cup for each of the boys and threatened, "Just stay still. If you dare to do anything small, I will break your limbs. The employer bought you to live, but he didn't say that." Don't get hurt! If you want to suffer less, be smarter!" After saying that, he gagged the two of them again and retreated.

The old man heard a few words and asked, "Are these two boys honest?"

The receptionist nodded nonchalantly and responded, "You're two farm boys, you're still afraid that they'll go crazy, it's good that you didn't scare them to death!"

After that, he licked his face and leaned forward again, begging the old man, "Let's discuss a plan to make a fortune. The convoy just now was a fat sheep. Let's go south after one vote. No one can catch us. How about that?" ?”

The old man was a little reluctant and made an excuse, "The car is full of goods. I'm afraid all the money will be spent in the south. What if we don't get much money and we can't take away so many goods? Wouldn't it be in vain? field!"

The responder was anxious and went to persuade the big man again, "You should say something. We finally came here and froze half to death. We can't just catch two boys, right? You don't kill the fat sheep when you encounter them. It's really cowardly!" "

The big man couldn't resist the temptation, so he followed the advice, "Why don't we just do it? There are no powerful people here in the North. Let's leave as soon as we're done, and we're not afraid of being blamed! The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so bring more money. Let’s go back and have a good New Year!”

The old man still felt that doing more was better than doing less, but he couldn't stand the idea of ​​three people working together to make money. When two agreed, he could only nod.

"Then wait until midnight. When the people in the convoy are asleep, sprinkle some powder on the fire, pour half of the medicine, and then take down the shopkeeper or steward. We will get the money and leave as soon as possible. If you can, we can do it without killing people. If you don’t kill someone, you can still save your life even if you get caught overturning your car.”

Both the big man and the receptionist felt that the old man was being too cautious, but there was no harm in being cautious, so the two agreed.

They had a good discussion, and they all felt free to eat and drink, but Yonglu and Yongyue in the carriage were anxious. It's a pity that they can't protect themselves, and it's useless to worry about others!

Fortunately, the guard leader had already brought a brother to the area, and with the help of Northwest Feng, he could hear most of the conversation between the three of them.

Afraid of alerting the thief, he quietly retreated and asked the remaining three guards to keep watch, not to show their heads easily, and to keep an eye on the whereabouts of the three gangsters.

The three guards looked at him with bad expressions and did not dare to ask any more questions.

The leader of the guard rushed to where the hidden horse was, got on his horse, and without delaying for a moment, hurriedly ran towards his convoy camp.

Chen Zhao didn't know how many times he looked around, but when he finally looked over the guard's head, he blurted out and asked, "How is it? Are there people tied up in the carriages of those Jianghu people?"

The leader of the guard let out a breath of cold air and nodded quickly, "The shopkeeper is right, there are two children tied up in the carriage. From what the three Jianghu people said, someone hired them to kidnap them to the south. Who is the specific employer? For the time being, have no idea."

"Are the two children from the Tai family?" Chen Zhao was most concerned about this, and he was so anxious that he wanted to go and see for himself.

The leader of the guard waved his hand and responded, "We can't see what's in the carriage, and we don't know if it's a Tai family child. But, shopkeeper, we are in trouble!"

When they heard the word "trouble", the others also came over.

The guard leader did not hide anything and carefully explained what he had just said. Everyone immediately became angry and began to curse. (End of chapter)
