Sick King and Concubine

Chapter 331 Surrounded by Wolf Thieves (2)
Jiang Li nodded, put down the curtain, touched her face with her hand, and sighed, "I really don't know why the rash occurred at this time of year."

It stands to reason that this is not the spring and autumn season, and I have never experienced any allergies to pollen, but unexpectedly, the evening sea breeze blew, and some red spots appeared on my face. Too much, even a little wind can't be seen, and it grows when it sees the wind, it's like grass on the Liliyuan.So now she is covered up like something, and she even wears a pair of thin gloves on her hands. The weather is so hot that Chu Yu held her along the way to lower her body temperature. Be less sad.

The setting sun was gradually setting, and the group of people was gradually moving away. At this time, a tea shed appeared on the side of the road. Outside the shed sat a miscellaneous-looking old man, holding a cattail fan with his chest exposed, sitting on a table full of people. Outside the shelf of turbid yellow water, squinting at their team.

The honest man got off his horse, walked up to the old miscellaneous man, took out a silver coin from his pocket, put it on the shelf, and picked up five bowls of water from the shelf.

As a result, just as he picked up the bowl, the old miscellaneous man snorted coldly and said, "Your money can only buy a bowl of water."

The honest man smiled and said, "Huang Weng, it's only been half a month, isn't the price going up too fast?"

?The two of them were talking in this room, but Chu Yu explained to each other in the carriage: "This is the rule outside the Great Wall. This old man is called a passerby. Generally, business travelers who come and go will buy water from him. What is your team worth?" How many people will buy as many bowls of water, not just for drinking, but for buying and selling from this passerby, he will tell you the route of the wolf thief tonight, which will greatly reduce the loss of the caravan." Jiang Li nodded. Nodding, this means that he understands that no matter who it is, they must abide by certain rules when they arrive at this place. Naturally, the life of a passer-by who gets news of wolf robbers is in danger, and no matter who the business travelers are "filial" There is nothing wrong with that.Outside the Great Wall, everyone has their own rules of survival, and no one is willing to break them unless necessary.

Outside, the old miscellaneous old man couldn't help but raise his eyes coldly after hearing the honest man's words, and said: "Recently, the wolf robbers here in Xisai are really powerful. Take advantage of this opportunity to make a good profit. Therefore, Xisai has a radius of more than a thousand miles, and there are at least forty or fifty teams of wolf robbers connected to the Daqiu Tatars. Now, they are the kings of this grassland and desert, and they are rampant. , and it is even more difficult for us to inquire about the news, and we have to risk our lives, which is not a loss."

Honestly said: "Huang Weng, although the wolf robbers are indeed rampant, the Xisai side and Ge Shuhou are not vegetarians. Since the treaty was signed three years ago, the wolf robbers are not very easy to do."

The old man Laza raised his eyes and looked at him, and said: "That being said, there has been no movement from Ge Shuhou this year. They have secretly reached an agreement a month ago. As for what this agreement is, I think you and I know it well." I understand. So, this time, for the sake of the old customers, let me tell you, stop doing this business for now, I don’t know how long the chaos will last.”

Candide looked at the muddy water, and finally looked back at the carriage.

Lou Xiyue rubbed her chin with an inscrutable expression on her face, and Chu Yu's voice came from inside: "It's not easy for Huang Weng, Zheng Yan, just follow what Huang Weng said."

"Yes." Zheng Yan replied respectfully. Even though Chu Yu was in the carriage, the etiquette was as serious as a king's presence.

Huang Weng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Old Zheng, I didn't expect that there are people above you."

Zheng Yan didn't speak, just smiled, then took out an ingot of gold from his bosom and gave it to him, took five bowls of water, that Huang Weng weighed the gold in his hands, and said: "Rules, you also Understand, I can only provide my best news, but there is no guarantee that nothing will go wrong."

Zheng Yan said: "Of course I know that."

Watching the team of people slowly disappearing into the twilight, Huang Weng frowned in a rare way. The voice sounded too young, but it sounded like the voice of Mr. Guijie. The young master also dared to go beyond the Great Wall, but it really makes people want to see how long he can last.

At this moment, he is still guessing here and there. If he knows that there is a woman in the carriage, then he may have to re-evaluate.

He looked at the gold in his hand, then took out a golden ferrule from his pocket, went to the back of the tea shed, lifted a cage, caught the pigeon inside, put the ferrule on the pigeon's feet, Then let it fly out.

The carriage was moving forward slowly, the two horses, Texue and Wuhen, were sweating all over, and the black things smeared on their fur began to wash out gradually, half black and half white turned into miscellaneous hair, two peerless horses , now fell into such a desolate look.

Su Liu followed behind on a horse, far away from Lou Xiyue, Lou Xiyue slowed down the horse, and then followed Su Liu, but Su Liu lifted the rein, and then turned from the side to the top.

As soon as Su Liu stepped forward, Chu Yu stretched out his hand from inside and said, "In order not to be disturbed, hang this thing on the carriage."

Su Liu looked at it, and saw that it was a silver bell with the word "wind" engraved on it. She had never stayed in Xisai, so naturally she didn't know what the name of this bell was. She took it and hung the bell on the carriage. As a result, the clear and crisp silver bells rang, spreading in the quiet and open grassland.

Jiang Li raised a little curtain with her hand, and now they have reached the grassland, where the boundless grass is far away, she hides from the wind, and the stars stretch all the way over, it is so beautiful.What would it be like to ride a horse at this time.But at this time, she couldn't see the wind on her face, and she would have to wait until after tonight at the earliest to not be afraid of the wind.

She suddenly remembered something and asked, "When will Qing Ge and Mingyue Caiyun arrive?"

Chu Yu curled her hair with her slender fingers, and said, "Well, maybe they will arrive after we arrive."

Jiang Li nodded, saw Lou Xiyue leaning towards Su Liu, and said with a smile, "The two of them have a lot of fun."

Chu Yu pulled down the curtain smoothly, and said, "Each has its own destiny, and the taste in Fengyue is out of order."

Jiang Li smiled and looked at the people beside her. Although she had nothing to say for a while, she only felt peaceful. She shook Chu Yu's hand and closed her eyes.

It was night, but they didn't stop their journey. The camels followed slowly with their things.

Jiang Li only felt that a cloak engulfed her, and a warm finger would touch her neck and pull her into his arms, and then put the soft fluff on her side, she smelled the scattered The fragrance of plum blossoms, and the distant ringing of the bell, are misty, as if about to fall asleep.
