In desperation, the few people could only rest on the spot.

After leaning the car against the side of the road, Xie Li removed the saddle from the dark horse and tied it to a tree not far away.

Although there is nothing in this place, fortunately, all kinds of weeds grow quite fat, and dark horses can eat very much without walking.

It was already late at this time, and it was almost half an hour before midnight.

A small bonfire in front of me was still flashing with flames stubbornly. Xie Li pulled out some dry firewood that he had finally found and gently put it on the flames.

In the silence of all sounds, only these newly added dry firewood will make some "peeling" sounds. After all, it is still summer, and even the dry firewood has a lot of moisture.

Before resting, Huan Chan thought about it for a while and chose to enter the car.

Although he doesn't really meet Na Su, at present, the carriage is the most suitable place to sleep.

Moreover, after riding a horse for a day, the temptation of softness and bedding in the carriage is really irresistible.

The remaining three men chatted around the bonfire for a while, and Huan Xian and Liu Qing also fell asleep one after another.

Originally, Liu Qing thought of guarding the first shift, but Xie Li had been on the edge of the car for more than a long time, and his condition was much better than those who rode horses.

So I chose to let them sleep first, and when they could not hold on, they would call Huan Xian.

The time to travel is quite tight, and the dietary conditions are very poor. The plan to strengthen the body is to put it aside for the time being and let it talk when you arrive in Jiangling.

Just by the bonfire, Xie Li gently flipped through the booklet. The content of the second half of the article was more complicated than the "Military Fist" in the first half, so Xie Li was also quite careful to read.

Although I can't practice it now, it's good to get familiar with it in advance with this time.

At this time, he felt a little sleepy, but he was not in a hurry to wake up Huan Xian. With his current state, it should be fine when he persisted in the midnight period.

Just as we were about to continue to add wood, there was a slight noise in the north direction of the road, which was when they came.

After a while, the noise became louder and louder. Only then did Xie Li realize that there should be the sound of several horses walking at the same time.

The sound is getting closer and closer, and we should be coming to the place where they camp.

After adding dry firewood, Xie Li woke up the two people who were sleeping.

Liu Qing was obviously always alert. Although he was already asleep just now, Xie Li's hand had woken up as soon as he touched his shoulder.

I subconsciously touched the sword on my waist with my hands, looked around for a while, and when I found that there was no one, I was about to ask, but then I heard the slightly noisy sound of horse hooves.

Huan Xian then got up, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and found that both of them were looking north, with alert faces, and then turned their heads and looked back.

There are many stars in the sky, and it will be much brighter tonight than the previous few days.

But the three of them had just moved their eyes away from the bonfire and looked at the darkness around them. After a while, they slowly slowly came over.

The initiator of the sound in the north finally appeared in the sight of the three.

There were five people coming here, with a total of three horses, and the horses seemed to be carrying some wooden boxes and packages on their backs.

After getting closer, Xie Li discovered that these five people were four men and one woman.

The men were wearing short and narrow thick clothes, vertical brown, and their sleeves were tied up very high. The woman couldn't see clearly, but her figure was stronger than Xie Li, and her clothes were not much better than the other four. If she hadn't heard her voice, Xie Li thought that the person who came was five men.

The few people were walking and talking, but after seeing the bonfire here, they all led their horses around.

"Oh, have you three guys not found a resting place? Why did you stay overnight in such a place?"

The strong man in front of him was the first to say hello.

"Haha, this hero guessed well! We just kept busy and forgot about the night stay. It was too late to remember, so we could only rest for one night. What are the heroes?..."

Liu Qing said it very easily, but his hands were always on guard in the dark.

All the dry firewood that Xie Li threw into the bonfire just now was burning, and the flames were rising high, illuminating the faces of the five people clearly.

Judging from the appearance, they are basically ordinary and have nothing special. Although their faces are not fair and not as fair as Xie Li and Huan Xian, they are much better than Liu Qing.

"Oh... This is a coincidence. If my father said this, we are really destined to be!"

After the leader said that, "Haha, it's true that we were from Xiangyang before, but after the Qin army broke through the outer city, we fled to Yicheng for refuge. However, our previous livelihoods were all over there, and in desperation, we had to become this merchant who bought and sold. We usually put some valuable things into other areas and transported them to other areas to make some difference."

After pointing to the package box immediately behind him, the strong man continued, "That's all. But I left the city a little late today and didn't meet a guest house or farmhouse on the road. So I just took advantage of the light and continued to rush on. I really didn't expect that I could meet you here to rest on this road, hahaha!"

Liu Qing also laughed, and then said, "That's good... Tonight is very bright than usual, and there is no problem if you are rushing. And it's much cooler than the daytime travel! Walk for a while and find a guesthouse in front to rest, this business can also become more comfortable, haha..."

But even though that was said, Liu Qing did not relax at all.

Xie Li and Huan Xian next to them were also on guard. After Liu Qing finished speaking, he heard the strong man continue, "Did you just wake up? I saw that the young man's eyes had not opened yet. It seems that we were disturbing each other accidentally. This is really a pity."

But before Liu Qing could answer the conversation, the strong man said again: "When we talked about sleeping, we walked in the middle of the night, and we were really tired. It happened that the father-in-law and two husbands were here, and they were still on fire, which made a lot of popularity. It was a good place to rest. If the three of you don't mind, would we sleep next to you for a while?"

Liu Qing still had a smile on his face. He was about to decline, but he heard Xie Li next to him say, "You guys must be so tired after rushing for such a long time. Are you about to invite you to rest together? But..."

Xie Li pondered for a moment, then continued, "The four heroes are strong and they can do whatever they want to sleep, but I see there is still a female family here, and it is not good to rest next to us. We just happened to have a cart. I'll go see if there is still room left. If she can rest in it, it would be pretty good..."

After hearing Xie Li's words, Liu Qing felt a little anxious and had no idea what he meant.

Just as he was about to stop him, he heard the "female family" laughing and saying, "Haha, this little man, this carriage is not small, and it can be at least five or six people. Now there must be free space..."

Liu Qing wanted to continue to say something to stop him, but saw Xie Li suddenly turned around and shouted:

"Do it!"
