Chapter 173 Caravan
The fat man said with a broken face: "Just take a shortcut, there is no need to criticize him."
Sui Yan said: "I'm a fool!"
"Lao Wu, I am your fourth brother!" The little fat man jumped.
"Hmph." Sui Yan turned his face away, too lazy to pay attention to him.
"It's really a reversal. Sui Xiaoshi, don't think that you are at the sixth level now, brother, I am at the fifth level now, and I will be afraid of you!" The little fat man felt that his self-esteem was hurt and was very dissatisfied.
"Then let's fight!" The taciturn Sui Yan only showed his other side when facing these people.
"Bah, my brother is too lazy to bully the young. You are waiting. When will I be unable to bear it, I will naturally take action. I am even afraid of myself when I take action!" The little fat man fought back with a stubborn voice.
The group of people laughed and made a fuss, gradually moving away from the imperial capital.
For many people, the departure of these people made them feel relieved.
I don’t know when, but these five young people who were not particularly famous in the top young master circle of the imperial capital have become nightmare existences for many people.
This time, the Wei family suffered heavy losses. All the hidden stakes in the imperial capital were almost uprooted and wiped out completely!
Now, the Wei family naturally found out who was taking action, but found that all the people who took action seemed to be born out of thin air, and had nothing to do with the Xu family, Liu family, and Sui family.
So even though they knew that this was done by them, the Wei family could only suffer a loss.
Prime Minister Wei Feng was ill and had not been to court for two days. It is said that he was very ill.
In addition, the court received war reports from the north, and the war in the north was in a tight position, and for a moment the entire court was shrouded in a tense atmosphere, so naturally no one paid much attention to the Wei family's unluckyness.
The Korean Empire has been ready to move in the north, and has harassed the borders of the Cangqiong Empire a lot over the years. If Xu Ji had not guarded the border, the war would have happened long ago.
Now that the war in the south has been pacified, the Cangqiong Kingdom unexpectedly fought back the army of the Great Yan Empire at a very small price, and it was difficult for the Great Yan Empire to recover for more than ten years. The Great Han Empire suddenly became a little anxious.
They originally hoped that the Great Yan Empire could join them in the north and south to completely divide the sky.
Unexpectedly, the Great Yan Empire was so incompetent that it could not even cross the border of the sky and was beaten back.
It is impossible to count on Da Yan, but the Korean Empire, which has a strong folk custom, still has a very high voice in its main battle, especially the Korean military, who even wrote a letter to fight this battle.
Hao Liancheng, who has now become the number one figure in the Korean military, is even more eyeing the rich sky.
The Northern Army was also jealous of the Southern Army's military merits, and the sound of demanding war was very loud. Even Xu Ji did not dare to suppress this kind of emotion easily, nor could he suppress it.
Therefore, when Xu Luo and his friends left the imperial capital, they received a secret letter from the palace, asking the five of them to wait for an opportunity to assist General Xu Ji, the general of the state.
Of course, Xu Luo would not refuse this request. He would do so even if he did not have the emperor's will.
There is no face in his storage ring. Now there is a large amount of supplies, which are enough to increase the equipment of the Northern Army to a higher level. If it were normal, Xu Luo would not take them out, but this is the critical moment.
Xu Luoke didn't want to repeat the Wansong Town tragedy ten years ago.
Although the war in the north is a bit tight now, there are still many caravans heading to the north. Xu Luo and the others are mixed in, and they don’t look conspicuous.
But compared to the large number of guards from other caravans, the guards of Xu Luo and the others looked a little shabby.
"Brother, do you want us to bring you with you?" a middle-aged man said to Huangfu Chongzhi.
After leaving the imperial capital for more than fifty miles, I encountered a large caravan with hundreds of carriages and at least 3,000 guards alone. In terms of equipment, they were all very well-established. The guards were all in their twenties, and they all looked like dragon spirits, tigers, tigers, and powerful.
"Together?" Huangfu Chongzhi glanced at the middle-aged man and asked back.
"Yes, the north is not peaceful now. Everyone goes out to do business, and they can take care of each other. Look at you, if you really have a horse thief, you will definitely not be able to escape from their palms. It is better to be together. I believe that even if you encounter a horse thief, you will not lose much." The middle-aged man looked shrewd and looked at Huangfu Chongzhi and smiled: "As long as you pay a thousand taels of silver, we will take you away!"
After a long time, it turned out that it was the idea. Huangfu Chongzhi smiled gently, shook his head slightly, and refused, "Forget it, I don't want to harm you."
What Huangfu Chong said was naturally the truth. They didn’t care about horse thieves at all. What really made them worried was the backup plan of Fengyuelou. It was also the one who said he didn’t want to harm others.
But this middle-aged man obviously would not think so. Seeing Huangfu Chongzhi refuse, he smiled coldly, said nothing, and turned around and left.
After returning, he got into a luxurious carriage, fell on the soft couch, and hugged the two beautiful girls and said without squinting: "Young master, they refused, and they said they didn't want to harm us."
"Reject?" The young man's hands were rubbing against the chests of the two beautiful girls, and he sneered: "I really don't know how to live or die. It's okay, don't pay attention to them. I'll send someone to warn them and let them stay away. If you don't pay, stay away from us and don't want to take advantage!"
"What the young master said is, but I think this team doesn't seem to be simple, and there is no need for us to offend them." said the middle-aged man.
Perhaps the young man felt uncomfortable kneading through his clothes, so he directly reached his hands into the two beautiful girls' clothes, with a satisfied look on his face, and a cold smile: "Forget it, then don't pay attention to them."
"Yes." The middle-aged man turned around and said goodbye, and then he breathed a sigh of relief after getting out of the carriage.
Listening to the faint sound of teasing and breathing in the carriage, the middle-aged man's eyes immediately became gloomy and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Then, someone came to the middle-aged man, who asked softly: "Have you investigated the origin of that team?"
The man returned: "It seems that he came from the imperial capital, maybe he was a young man from a certain family. He seemed to be sealed with him when he went to the fiefdom."
"Well, stare at those people, they are real fat sheep!" The middle-aged man said softly, then glanced at the carriage that was getting farther and farther away from him, and sneered: "What an incompetent waste. Instead of letting him ruin the industry left by his father, it is better to give it to us!"
The man said, "Yes, the Lord has always been too kind and has not touched them all these years. After the old boss died, the young boss has become more and more promiscuous. Now even the caravan has to take women with him. It's too much!"
The middle-aged man sighed: "Let him stay for his life and prepare him ten thousand taels of silver. No matter what, the old boss treats us well over the years."
"The Lord is so kind. If it is a small person, this kind of waste will be killed." The man smiled and said, "But don't worry, we are just asking for money."
The middle-aged man nodded and asked, "By the way, have you contacted me there?"
The person beside him chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Lord, the master and the third boss have already been ready. After this vote, we can almost stop!"
"That's good. Although the war in the north is tight now, Xu Ji has no time to take care of us, but don't forget that Xu Su is also the mess!" When the middle-aged man said this, there was a hint of hatred in his eyes, and he said hatefully: "Soon and later, he will have to pay his blood debts for blood!"
"Yes, if it weren't for him, how could we end up in such a miserable situation?"
"Okay, pay attention to the caravan behind you. Then, I will do it with them!" the middle-aged man said lightly.
...
"Brother, have you noticed that the middle-aged man just now had a murderous aura?" The fat man said to Huangfu Chongzhi with a serious look on his face: "I can hear that the blood on him is very heavy. This man should be a master, but it just happened that he dressed himself up as a manager in a caravan, which was a bit strange."
"No wonder, this person should be a guy who kills a lot." Xu Luo's voice came from the carriage.
The little fat man asked strangely: "Third brother, you didn't see it, how do you know?"
"Haha." Xu Luo's chuckled from the carriage, and did not answer him, but said: "Anyway, we should be careful of the killer of Fengyuelou, and we should also be careful of this person. I don't think he looks like a good person."
"Look... I don't know where you saw it." The little fat man muttered, and then said, "But I also think this person doesn't look like a good person."
Xu Jie frowned slightly and said, "Are you too worried? You are just the manager of a caravan. I want to ask us for some benefits. What's so scary?"
"Second brother, do you want us to make a bet?" Xu Luo sat in the car and said with a smile: "If this person has no problem, I will lose 100 kilograms of top-quality refining materials!"
"Really?" Xu Jie's eyes suddenly lit up. He knew very well that Xu Luo must have had many good things in his hands. Their temptations to him were unparalleled.
"Of course." Xu Luo smiled.
"Okay, just bet, I think there is no problem with him!" Xu Jie said, looking at Huangfu Chongzhi: "What do you think?"
Huangfu Chongzhi thought for a while and said, "I didn't feel anything unusual, but we can't take it lightly, so it's better to be careful."
In a flash, thirteen days passed, and Xu Luo and others had already left the imperial capital for more than 1,500 miles.
As the sun sets, the blue sky begins to become dark. The large-scale caravan in front has begun to stop, surrounding all the vehicles into a large circle, laying the realm, and others begin to make fire in the circle to make meals.
At this time, a sound of horse hooves suddenly came from afar.
Like thousands of troops trampling on the ground, the whole earth trembled.
Almost everyone became alert at this moment.
There were even roars from the caravan ahead: "Enemy attack!"
