Chapter 863 - Hiding from the Sky and Crossing the Sea
The land of the Three Jin Dynasty starts from Puzhou, and reaches the official road of Datong Mansion, which is the land artery that communicates the Central Plains and Yanbei, the caravan starts from Puzhou, passes through Jiezhou, Siyancheng, Linfen, Taiyuan Mansion, Yanmen Pass all the way to the north, can reach the border town of Datong City, and then out of the customs is the vast and boundless grassland, there are the three ladies of the naturalized Ming Dynasty in the west, and the east is the Tumen Khan and Duoyan Sanwei who ride south to knock on the pass every year.
Now I answer the tribute, the border is open to trade, the Jin merchants with their unique monopoly advantages, occupy more than ninety percent of the interests, this communication between the Central Plains and the north of the trade route is more and more prosperous, the caravans from the south to the north are endless, even in the dry and hot summer, there are still a lot of travelers on the official road who rush with poisonous heads.
Shanxi Pingyang Mansion, Jiezhou to Puzhou official road, a large caravan is traveling south, flatbed carts are full of goods, the handlebars, accompanying guys, saber guys, all of them are in a blue suit, wearing a hero scarf, stepping on the ground tiger, everyone is arrogant, walking in the middle of the official road, squeezing other cars and horses and pedestrians to the side.
Of course they are arrogant, the head of the caravan is holding the lantern of the official titles of the Puzhou Young Master's Mansion and the Zhongji Temple University Scholar, and the caravan on the Shoufu University Scholar's Mansion today is not walking sideways?
The cart full of goods is tightly covered with a good tarpaulin, which is from the north to get lambskin, ginseng, mink, deer antler, three melons on the grassland are not worth two jujubes, transported to the Central Plains is a treasure, can afford to sell a lot of money!
Seven or eight sturdy men rode fat horses, and they were not conspicuous at all in the caravan of thousands of people, but if you looked closely, you found that both the bodyguards and the men were a little out of place with them, and kept their distance from each other.
Squinted eyes, big cake face, looped legs, and bunched hair with traces of braids, where are the Han people in the Central Plains? It's clear that he is a Mongolian warrior who grew up on horseback!
"It's so hot," the Mongolian warrior led by him stretched out his hand to wipe his sweat, and looked around again: "The Great Khan always wants to rob the Central Plains flowers, I think it's just like that, hum, it's hot in summer, where is it cool and comfortable like our grassland." ”
All the Mongolian warriors laughed, and some people jokingly said: "The weather in the Central Plains is not good, and the little lady in the Central Plains looks good!" ”
A scar-eyed Han man wearing a cocoon silk suit, riding a horse to accompany this group of Mongolian warriors, couldn't help but slander when he heard this: The north is frozen for thousands of miles in winter, and it is so cold that people are dead, you dare to say this in winter?
But he didn't say a word, but owed on horseback, with a smile on his face, with a Han face: "Lord Battle, heroes, when you arrive in Shanxi, you are the honored guests of my master, so naturally you have to entertain wholeheartedly, and what kind of girl you want is wrapped in my Sun Youdao." As for the weather, it is relatively hot on this section of the road, and when you arrive at Wangguan Valley in front, it will be cool. ”
Battle smiled and took a sip: "You are a filial ...... Okay, then hurry up! ”
Sun Youdao smiled, and a sly light flashed in his eyes, in fact, he was not as respectful and trusting as he seemed to these Mongols.
"Brothers, hurry up, don't act like a!" Sun Youdao beckoned and shouted: "This business is not bad, when I return to the house, the old lady will leak a little between his fingers, and the brothers will have the silver to eat flowers and wine and play with chicks, and when the time comes, I will hug the two Datong Mansion girls and have fun!" ”
Everyone in the caravan was in high spirits and immediately quickened their pace.
Wangguan Valley is the remnant vein of Zhongtiao Mountain, the undulating mountains are lush and green, the mountain breeze is cool and pleasant, the travelers pass by the official road in the north, the wind blows from the mountain pass, and suddenly takes away most of the heat.
Battle suddenly reined in his horse, frowned, and pointed at the mountain range with his whip: "Hey, the terrain here is treacherous, you pass through here, and you are not afraid of bandits?" ”
Sun Youdao laughed, until Battle wrinkled his brows in disgust, he realized that he had overdone, quickly restrained his smile, and said quite smugly: "Our Jin merchants go to Qinchuan Shangyan to cross the Yellow River and cross Taihang, where are the bandits who don't have long eyes dare to come and pick up the tiger's whiskers?" There are bandits, and we only treat him as a slave. ”
This is the case, the Jin merchants are officials, businessmen, and heroes in one, where do the bandits dare to find trouble with these big guys? There are even characters on the green forest road who worship under each family, and they also go out of the mountain to give gifts during the New Year's holidays!
Unexpectedly, this Sun Youdao couldn't laugh, and as soon as the laughter fell, he heard a clear female voice in the middle of the air coming from afar: "Ah, the people in Zhang Siwei's bastard's family listen, the White Lotus Holy Sect has come to borrow some food, and those who know each other will surrender quickly!" ”
Everyone was shocked, and when they looked up, on the top of the main peak of Wangguan Valley, a white figure stood in the wind, fluttering and peerless, wearing a silver mask on his face, and he was the legendary invincible White Lotus Sect Master in the world!
The Demon Sect Leader had a great reputation on the rivers and lakes, and when the Fa Driver came here, everyone in the caravan was in chaos.
"No, don't panic! There's only one person, let's stand side by side! Sun Youdao tried his best to organize the caravan, and gradually a hundred and ten bodyguards gathered.
"The right envoy of the robbery, Ai Kuzen, is here, and he will accept his life!" A cold light shot out from the woods, and with lightning speed, it was nailed into the heart of a thug, and the tooth-aching arrow entered the flesh, and the man fell to the sky with his back to the sky, and the broken arrow in the heart trembled slightly.
"I am Xiao Yuntian, the master of Baiyang Hall, the head of the dog slave!" In the other direction, the same arrow shot through the throat of an unlucky man.
In several other directions, there are crossbow arrows shot out, one at a time, one will take away one person's surname, although there are many guards in the caravan, but they are intimidated by the prestige of the White Lotus Sect Master, and they are afraid to retreat.
Wow, Battelle shouted, brandishing his saber and roaring: "It turned out to be the remnant of the red scarf, taste the power of my Mongolian warrior!" ”
All the Mongolian warriors rushed towards the mountain peak, and in a blink of an eye, they were twenty zhang away from the feet of the White Lotus Sect Master, and they all opened their bows and arrows to shoot at her.
I don't know if it was because the mountain was too high, or if it was some kind of magical skill, the arrows fell to the ground three feet in front of the White Lotus Sect Master.
"The small skill of carving insects can only be dominated by the outside, and you can only get an axe in the class!" The White Lotus Sect Master smiled coldly, pinched the magic trick in his hand and pointed forward, and shouted, "Tartar is dead!" ”
Battle rolled the saddle and fell off his horse, and several of his companions were all shocked, and they hurried to the bottom of the sea to catch the moon, rescued him, and ran back to the official road.
"It's amazing, the thief is so powerful!" Battle turned pale, and the shoulder socket he was holding was covered with blood, obviously not lightly injured.
The caravan was in chaos, and everyone either ran around with their heads in their arms or fled in the wagon.
The White Lotus Sect Leader laughed: "Tell your family Zhang Siwei, if you dare to go against the Holy Sect again, sooner or later you will take his dog's head!" ”
Sun Youdao tried his best to organize a caravan to flee to the south, but fortunately, the White Lotus Sect Master seemed to be only for demonstration, and did not lead the crowd to catch up, and finally escaped for more than ten miles and gathered the team, counted the manpower, and some were shot to death by the White Lotus Sect, and some trampled on each other to death, countless injuries were made, and a lot of chariots, horses and goods were lost.
Battle didn't say a word, and several of his men wrapped his wounds, and the red blood oozed out of the white cloth, which was shocking.
"Thank you, Lord Battle, for your help!" Sun Youdao thanked him gratefully, he was sincere this time, if the Mongolian warriors hadn't rushed up and dragged it for a while, the caravan's losses would have been even greater, how would he explain it after he returned home?
Battle waved his hand: "The thief is so powerful, even I am not her opponent, don't talk about those nonsense, your old lady is willing to give us a discount, then it is enough to be a friend." ”
Sun Youdao smiled, now he fully believed in Battle's sincerity.
Wang Guan Valley, the White Lotus Sect Master took off his mask, his goose egg face was picturesque, his eyes were deep and blurry, it was not a cold white frost at all, but it was Zhang Zixuan, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion!
Pretending to be masters such as Ai Kuchan and Lian Bichen, they were actually just four Xiangfu guards, using military crossbows to shoot from the dense forest, and they didn't even show their faces from beginning to end.
"I'm getting old, and I'm still here to do this murderous and overselling business!" You Qi smiled bitterly, looked at the bodyguard thug whose throat and heart socket were pierced on the ground, and then looked at Yin Binshang's vision changed a little, Xiangye was right, this guy is a dragon slayer in troubled times, a person who died just out of the mountain was used by Xiaoxiong.
As for whether Qin Lin is a hero, You Qi doesn't think much about it.
Zhang Zixuan said with a smile: "Mr. Yin's plan is good, false and real, and he has succeeded immediately." ”
Yin Binshang bowed slightly, and arched his hand: "If you are prepared for Zhou, you will be lazy, and if you are common, you will not be suspicious, yin is in yang, not in the pair of yang." Zhang Siwei's caravan on the mansion was rampant in Sanjin and never encountered an attack, so he was tired and neglected to take precautions, and it was inevitable to panic when he suddenly encountered an attack, and the White Lotus Sect Master was powerful in the world, and his dress was passed on by everyone, and the young lady pretended to be the sect leader, so that they were frightened at first sight, so we could surprise the weak to defeat the strong. ”
"Mr. Yin is a great soldier, and he is indeed high-minded!" Zhang Zixuan bowed slightly, looked in the direction of the southern caravan fleeing, and sneered full of hatred: "Zhang Yunling, Zhang Siwei ......"
Qin Lin drank a pot of incense tablets in the teahouse again, and heard that Mr. Storyteller told a story about the heroic martyrs of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, so he rushed to the Jinyiwei General Banner Station.
Point Mao Mao, Mao will be named, but during the Wanli period, Mo said that the brocade guards stationed in other places were those brocade guards directly under the command of the Beijing Jinyi pro-army, and more than half of them slept at home during the Mao period.
Qin Lin shook slowly, and saw the caravan of the Young Master's Mansion walking in a mess on the main road, many people hung up their colors, and their spirits were sluggish, and their hearts were suddenly surprised, and under the glance of their eyes, their bodies suddenly shook.
"Brother Qin, what's wrong?" Lu Yuanzhi hurriedly asked.
Qin Lin squinted his eyes thoughtfully: "It's nothing, it seems to see an old acquaintance......"
When he walked to the Jinyi Wei General Banner Office, he saw that it was busy inside, and Gui Youhua said loudly: "Quick, brothers, hurry up, hurry up and go out with this official to do things, don't go out of your mouth later......"
"Don't go out of your way?" Qin Lin stepped into the threshold with a smile and looked at Gui Youhua playfully: "Who are you going to hide?" ”
Gui Youhua was stunned, and he was so thick-skinned that he was a delicate person, and he immediately smiled all over his face: "Chief Qin, my subordinates said that this case involves the Demon Sect, and told them not to leak it out." ”
Involved in the Demon Cult? Qin Lin smiled more and more when he heard this, the Demon Sect Master is by my side!
