Fisherman's Song Dynasty

That Hu man speaks Chinese so fluently, he is obviously an old-fashioned profiteer who wanders around the Hexi Corridor all year round. Pepper has not appeared in Xixia and Song Dynasty these days, so he managed to get these two bags to sell. He thought that the rare goods could be sold at home. It was a good price, but he never expected Xu Zizhen to recognize it at a glance.

As a result, his opportunity has been lost, and he has lost the confidence to ask for prices all over the sky. Pepper is a rare commodity, but also because of this, no one knows this Xixia land. He has been setting up a stall for a long time, but many people come Asked, but the result is still no one cares.

Although Xu Zizhen is not a businessman, his ability to talk and flick is not inferior to this barbarian at all. He kept the price of pepper down to the lowest level, and finally left with two sacks on his back and laughed. The barbarian with a face like the bottom of a pot stood there and gritted his teeth.

It wasn't until after leaving the booth that Liu Feng couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked: "Brother, how do you know this thing? Also, why do you want to come here?"

Xu Zizhen smiled: "This thing is just a condiment. It is sold everywhere in our place. That is, the foreign devil treats it as a treasure. As for what use it is... Let's carry it back now, and you will naturally know later."

Liu Fengsui just wanted to ask more questions, but saw Bu Fen waving at them from a distance, the two looked at each other, and ran over quickly.

Bu Fen said simply and directly: "The little girl left, and a few followers followed."

Xu Zizhen said: "So fast? Which direction did they go?"

Bu Fen said with a smile: "Southwest is in the same direction as us, why? Do you want to chase?"

Without further ado, Xu Zizhen jumped into the car: "Chase!"

Bu Fen's caravan was not fully prepared yet, and when they finished loading and unloading everything and chased them out, they had already lost sight of Duoqi Zhuoma and his party. Fortunately, there was only one road from Xiliang Mansion, so Bu Fen immediately took care of them. The entire caravan accelerated.

Not long after leaving the Xiliang Mansion, the surrounding area returned to desolation. There was no living thing to be seen on the whole road, and even birds rarely passed by in the gray sky.

Xu Zizhen was very anxious, he didn't know how many entourages Duoqi Zhuoma had brought, and he didn't know the purpose of those stalkers, he was afraid that something would happen if he chased him one step too late, then he would really regret it. I knew I shouldn't have been chatting with that nonsense for so long.

I don't know how long I have been chasing, the sky is getting dark, just when Xu Zizhen couldn't help but get out of the car and chase after him alone, a man jumped out of a car in the front of the caravan, ran to Xu Zizhen's car and said: " Brother Xu, I found a caravan ahead, it seems to be the group you are looking for."

Xu Zizhen was shocked, and immediately jumped onto the shaft of the car to look forward, but saw that there was indeed a caravan in front of him. Although it looked no different from an ordinary caravan in appearance, Xu Zizhen recognized it at a glance. It was Duo Qizhuo Ma and their group.

As soon as he pulled out the Tang knife, he was about to jump out of the car, but was stopped by Bu Fen: "Come on, little brother Xu, you don't have to be so impatient. Those little thieves haven't shown up yet, I'm afraid they will startle the snake."

Xu Zizhen immediately stopped his feet and patted his forehead: "I'm confused, Uncle Bu, you are right, let's hang at a distance first, anyway, you are also a caravan, even if you are discovered by those little thieves, you won't be suspicious Let's get on top."

Bu Fen smiled and said: "Don't worry, since I promised to help you, nothing will happen."

As soon as he said this, the guy suddenly pointed to the front and said: "Boss, they stopped."

Bu Fen was taken aback, took a look with his head, and frowned, "Why are you stopping here? Those who don't go to the village and don't shop at the back, are they not afraid of being black-handed?" He paused, then shouted, "Let's get close Let them rest their feet, just think we are trying to have fun."

"Yes, the shopkeeper!"

The guy hurried back to the front, the convoy gradually slowed down, and headed towards Duoqi Zhuoma's convoy, what surprised Xu Zizhen was that their convoy didn't even have a sentry, until they approached, there was a middle-aged man The man got out of the car and looked back and forth at them.

Xu Zizhen could see clearly from the car that this middle-aged man was the one he had snatched the horse from. He still remembered his name as Ciyang.

He thought for a while and said to Bu Fen in a low voice: "Uncle Bu, this is the little girl's housekeeper. I won't show up now, so please strike up a conversation with him."

Bu Fen nodded and jumped out of the car. With a friendly smile on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "Brother, it's in the wilderness, how about we invite people to join in the fun?"

There was a slight surprise in Ciyang's eyes, but he still cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Very good, very good, I don't know what to call this shopkeeper?"

"My surname is Bu..."

The two groups of people got together during the conversation between Bufen and Ciyang, all the carriages and horses also stopped at one place, and a big fire was lit on the flat ground, and Bufen's men and guards all got out of the car and sat around Together, they took out wine and meat to eat and greeted Ciyang and his party with a smile.

The people in the Ciyang motorcade also surrounded one after another. Xu Zizhen could see clearly in the car. They were not very tall, but they were unusually burly, with sharp eyes and a layer of plateau red on their cheeks. They were all typical Tubo man.

Xu Zizhen couldn't help being secretly surprised, these Tubo men looked tough, they were by no means ordinary caravan guards, and it seemed that Duoqi Zhuoma was not an ordinary person either.

But what made him feel strange was that Duoqi Zhuoma never got out of the car, but just said a few words to Ciyang across the carriage, the distance was too far, and Xu Zizhen didn't hear clearly.

The two groups quickly became acquainted. Although those Tubo men still didn't laugh much, they also took out their respective food and exchanged food with Bufen's buddies. Today's rare bright moon is high, and the north wind It was very tight, blowing on the face like being cut by a knife, but the two groups of people gathered around the fire, eating and talking and laughing, and it seemed to be very happy.

Those little thieves who were following him never showed up. Xu Zizhen wondered secretly in the car, and said in a low voice, "Why haven't you come yet? Could it be that I guessed wrong?"

Liu Fengsui also had a strange expression on his face: "Brother, why do I feel that this matter is so sinister? Look at the place where they are resting, and they didn't send anyone to guard. Is it lack of care or intentional?"

Just as Xu Zizhen was about to speak, he heard a sharp whistling in his ears, and then there was a rush of horseshoes from all around. Bu Fen's men suddenly jumped up with a tense look, and the steel knives around their waists were out of their sheaths.

Someone shouted loudly: "Everyone, be careful, the horse thief is coming!"

As soon as the words fell, dozens of fast horses had surrounded Bufen and Ciyang's men and horses. The knights on horseback were all dressed in leather coats and hats, with grinning smiles on their faces, and long sabers held high in their hands, shining in the moonlight. With a cold light.
