summer market

Qin Chuan stretched out his palm, and the blood beads slowly stopped in his palm, and quickly turned into a puddle of blood. In the blink of an eye, the blood disappeared as if out of thin air.Except that Qin Chuan's palm was very red, as if his tightly clenched palm suddenly opened.After a while, there was no sign of Yin Hong.Qin Chuan looked at Chen Qingzhi's disbelieving and shocked expression, turned his head and walked out of the grotto without saying anything.

Qin Chuan is not a good man or a good woman, so he didn't come to this Buddhist cave specifically to worship the Buddha.It took Chen Qingzhi a while to regain his composure. Chen Qingzhi understood that Qin Chuan would not show him this unique skill for no reason. There must be a purpose for doing so.

Immortal medicine!

Seeing that scene, this was the first word that popped into Chen Qingzhi's mind.If he hadn't taken the elixir, how could Qin Chuan's wounds heal so quickly, and the blood that flowed on the ground wouldn't have gathered and returned to his body.At this moment, Chen Qingzhi, who had always been doubtful about the elixir, was at a loss: Could it be that there really is an elixir in this world, so is the Biluo Ganoderma lucidum real?He immediately understood that the reason why the emperor was so in awe of Qin Chuan was not because of the map Qin Chuan presented, nor because Qin Chuan knew the location, but because Qin Chuan had shown his special ability in front of the emperor. , the emperor would be so overwhelmed.No matter what you say, the emperor who is suspicious by nature cannot just believe anyone's one-sided words. Qin Chuan must have shown his special ability in front of the emperor before he was canonized as a hermit!

Looking at Qin Chuan's tall back, Chen Qingzhi swallowed a mouthful of saliva and chased him out.

Qin Chuan didn't speak a word along the way, but he believed that Chen Qingzhi had completely convinced him, and the rest would be easy.It didn't take long for the two of them to return to the camp.

I was speechless all night, but Chen Qingzhi was tossing and turning in the tent, thinking about what happened to Qin Chuan over and over again, until he closed his eyes in a daze at dawn, and soon after falling asleep, the guards got up to pack their things , they are going out!After selling all the goods they carried along the way, they sold the horses and replaced them with camels that are durable in the desert. After preparing food and fresh water, the team of 17 people and the [-] camels they bought set off.

Chen Qingzhi discovered that the price of these goods sold in the Dunhuang area was more than 20 times higher than that in Daliang. If these goods were shipped to countries in the Western Regions, the price would skyrocket.It was only then that Chen Qingzhi realized why so many people risked their lives to do business in this bloody place. It turned out that the profits were so high that even he couldn't even imagine.In order to get rid of this batch of goods quickly, he didn't care much about the price, otherwise he could earn a lot more, it's all the best silk!

Not long after leaving the customs, they ran into trouble.Because they were busy selling goods and purchasing camels and food in the morning, the team could not start until noon. After leaving the customs, it was already past noon, and after walking 34 miles, it was already late. In the desert, the camels were not walking fast.Fortunately, the moonlight was very good, so they didn't intend to stop and camp for the night, and wanted to hurry on their way at night.This area is a well-known three-way zone, which belongs to the forces of the Northern Wei Dynasty on the map, but the cavalry of the Hu people often haunts. The national power of the Northern Wei Dynasty is no longer the big country it was when Emperor Xiaowu reformed. It basically belongs to defense, and the army basically can't control it here; and the barbarian is also in civil strife, you kill me and I chop you, often send troops to plunder some small countries in the Western Regions, and don't take it into consideration. Therefore, the real owner of this place, It's a horse thief.

There is not just one horse thief here, but multiple forces coexist.When we first started hanging around here, you would see me coming and I would stare at you, and if you said something wrong, you would pick up your weapon and slash at each other, and gangsters would eat gangsters from time to time. In the end, I still don’t know which powerful bandit leader it is Realizing that, in such a fight, what everyone robbed would not be enough for medical expenses and various damages, so they gathered people from all walks of life, even organized a bandit alliance, and formulated a series of rules. The principle of fair distribution is : The one who follows the first will be the one who grabs it, and those who are not strong enough can pull other teams into the group.After success, it will be divided according to the previous agreement. If anyone dares to break the rules, all kinds of people here will destroy him together!

However, the horse thieves targeting Chen Qingzhi's team were in a bit of trouble.

Since Chen Qingzhi's horse team appeared in Dunhuang, at least more than [-] horse thieves have been eyeing them.To their surprise, this team had never appeared before, that is to say, they were a novice team, and the alliance stipulated that discounts were required for old customers. [-] These people who occasionally appear in caravans are great news for them. They saw that Chen Qingzhi and others sold thousands of bolts of silk, and they carried the gold and silver on their bodies. There is only one purpose for the caravan to go out of customs, to purchase special products from the Western Regions!But no team of horse thieves has this awareness: the caravan will never leave the customs empty-handed, it must carry the goods out to sell, and then buy them back, scrambling at both ends, not like Chen Qingzhi and others. Those who do, they will not be pure businessmen.It's a pity that the horse thieves are not concerned about their identities, but the gold and silver on them. In this way, these horse thieves will inevitably feel a little sad...

The development of the matter made the horse thieves embarrassed. No team of horse thieves had a way to confirm that the goods on this group of people belonged to them, because the robber alliance stipulated that one must be left in the team of the caravan to be robbed. Other experts will not intervene in the signs known to colleagues, just like unowned things, whoever picks them is theirs.When their spies approached the caravan camp, they were spotted by the satellite TV and had to stop.

All of a sudden, horse thieves from all walks of life were itchy and wanted to swallow this fortune.You know, the price of more than 1000 bolts of silk here is more than 1 taels of gold!In the past few years, due to the melee in the Central Plains and the decline of people's livelihood, the production of silk has dropped sharply, which is far from enough to supply the high-ranking officials and nobles in the Central Plains. Except for the Liang Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River where the environment is relatively stable, silk is already a luxury among luxury goods.It was also because of this that Xiao Yan asked Chen Qingzhi to carry a batch of silk out of the customs, which was more useful than silver; even in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the border of the deadly enemy, no one dared to intercept so much silk being transported.Because these were goods provided to princes and nobles, local officials did not dare to check their identities vigorously. In this way, some of them came to Dunhuang unimpeded.However, they were also severely exploited along the way. Of the [-] bolts of silk, only half of them were left here.

Chen Qingzhi and Qin Chuan didn't know that for them, eight groups of horse thieves had been fighting from morning to afternoon.These daring horse thieves all came here coveting the huge sums of money on them, but before Chen Qingzhi and others arrived, they had already made a fuss.

The three monks have no water to drink, let alone a group of horse bandits!
