(Thank you for the reward of 100 starting coins from "Book Friends 130611201811496", thank you!) )
The shopkeeper of the second dog heard the anger in Wang Sancai's tone, and while driving the horse, he hurriedly turned around and said: "Hey, don't be excited, if you want to go to the Zhumu Mountains, Eagle Dove City is the only way to go, and there is no remote trail to pass through along the way." ”
Hearing him say this, Wang Sancai suddenly turned his head to look at Bai Xiao, Bai Xiao understood, and quickly said: "In my impression, there is indeed only this avenue leading to Eagle Dove City, as for whether there is a small road, I really don't know." ”
He didn't hide his voice when he said this, the shopkeeper of the second dog listened to it, and immediately preemptively said without waiting for Wang San to speak: "It's not dawn yet, wait for the sky to get brighter again, and you will know that what I said will not be false." ”
The shopkeeper of the second dog said with full confidence, and even, in the end, he couldn't help but emphasize: "There is no other route to pass at all, my little life is in your hands, and I will definitely not tell lies!" ”
Although his tone was swearing, Wang Sancai would not easily believe him, but the sky was just dawning now, and the visual range was only a few dozen meters at most, and there were other pedestrians on this avenue, even if the shopkeeper of the second dog really deceived him, Wang Sancai couldn't attack him until he had to!
Moreover, by now, he had vaguely felt that David's position had become clearer again.
Holding back his suspicions, Wang Sancai still had no impulse, but it was close to sunrise. Bai Xiao, who had just slept in a coma for an afternoon, had a tendency to be unable to hold on, although he was also a little sleepy, Wang Sancai still beat his spirit and whispered to Bai Xiao: "Xiaobai, don't fall asleep at this time." ”
"Uh......" Bai Xiao snorted, quickly sat up straight, forced his eyelids, and once again made the standard gesture of a pregnant woman.
It's just that as the visibility of the surroundings gets higher and higher, Wang Sancai is more and more worried that Bai Xiao will be exposed.
Although Bai Xiao's figure on the wanted notice posted is very different from the actual one, as long as you see his face, you will definitely recognize him. Although there was a black veil covering Bai Xiao's face. But there is no guarantee that the guards of Eagle Dove City will not suspect him, and the key is that he must carefully hide his feet and hands caressing his stomach, and it will be fine when it is dark. But it's dawn. In the distance, you can see his big feet and hairy fingers that only a man has.
But. Before the second dog shopkeeper got three high-quality yuan stones, he would definitely try his best to protect himself, and it was absolutely impossible to sell the two of them before he got them. Otherwise, he didn't have to risk himself to help the two of them in this play, as long as he suddenly disappeared when he wasn't paying attention before, it would be enough to save his life.
Therefore, at least the shopkeeper of the second dog can still "trust" for a while.
Wang Sancai could only put his hope on him.
As the sun gradually rose in the east, the surrounding visual range finally gradually became farther away, and Wang Sancai finally understood why the shopkeeper of the second dog said that there was no other way to pass through Eagle Dove City.
Because, Wang Sancai can clearly see the Eagle Dove City about two miles ahead, although the city wall is not as majestic as Tuye City, but the buildings in the city wall are also unique, especially the dense towers in front of the city gate, which is difficult to see in other cities.
The key is that Eagle Dove City does not have a south gate and a north gate, because these two directions are two raised mountain ranges, and Eagle Dove City is "sandwiched" in the middle by two mountain ranges, there are only two city gates in the east and west for people to enter and exit, and the two mountain ranges are continuous and extend to a long distance behind Wang Sancai and the others, but the further east, the lower the mountain range becomes, and finally turns into a dirt slope and gradually flattens.
No wonder the shopkeeper of the two dogs said that there was no other road through Eagle Dove City, which was tightly sandwiched by two mountain ranges, and it was indeed impossible to have other roads.
"Oh, I remembered...... Bai Xiao looked at the endless mountains on both sides, and had an epiphany: "Eagle Dove City is the most special and easiest city in the Zhou Kingdom to defend in terms of geographical location!" I actually forgot about it just now! ”
When the shopkeeper heard his words, he immediately echoed proudly: "Of course, don't look at the status of the Liang family as many families, but if the war spreads here, as long as you hide in Eagle Dove City, then you will be safe." ”
Although he is addicted to gambling, after all, he grew up on the territory of the Liang family since he was a child, and he also has a unique sense of belonging to the Liang family. ”
Wang Sancai didn't answer his words, although Bai Xiao wanted to discuss it with him, but because he was in a hostile relationship, and he was disguised as a pregnant woman, he still kept his mouth shut.
The shopkeeper of the second dog said that it was boring alone, and after only saying a few words, he naturally kept silent.
Soon, when the sun was shining on the earth, Wang Sancai and the three of them finally came to Eagle Dove City.
However, under this close observation, Wang San found that Eagle Dove City looked very much like a military fortress from the outside, and the moat alone was more than thirty meters wide.
The key is that the moat is not only very deep, but the water flow is also extremely turbulent, and there is only a suspension bridge in the middle that can only allow two carriages to go side by side to lead to Eagle Dove City.
While crossing this drawbridge, all the carriages slowed down noticeably, for the simple reason - the horses were frightened!
"Phew-" The shopkeeper of the two dogs tried his best to appease the horses, trying his best to maintain the balance of the carriage.
Bai Xiao was already sleepy, and his two hands were firmly grasping Wang Sancai, completely like a frightened little girl, even Wang Sancai looked at the turbulent river under the suspension bridge. I couldn't help but feel a little frightened.
Fortunately, the drawbridge was extremely strong, and the three of them finally came over without any danger.
The key is that they are about to be interrogated by the guards guarding the city, and Wang Sancai and Bai Xiao's hearts have all been raised again.
The closer they got to the two city guards, the more nervous Wang Sancai and Bai Xiao became, and Bai Xiao grabbed Wang Sancai's arm tightly, if he hadn't been wearing a veil, I was afraid that he would already be in danger of being exposed. It's the shopkeeper of the two dogs, after walking across the suspension bridge. The whole person has already relaxed. even chatted with the two of them without a word, as if they had been old friends for many years.
It's just that neither of them is in the mood to pay attention to him at all.
The shopkeeper of the second dog also saw that the two didn't want to take care of themselves. I simply closed my mouth. Quietly sit and wait for the guards to check the city.
Wang Sancai saw that the check-in ahead was very strict. Not only was one guard searched, but another named would also go to the carriage for routine inspection.
Looking at the appearance of the second dog shopkeeper, Wang Sancai was not sure how he would explain to the two city guards later. I couldn't help but ask with some concern: "Have you figured out a way?" We'll be exposed when we search ourselves later. ”
"Hey, don't worry." The shopkeeper of the second dog didn't even reply: "Don't be nervous, I've been mixing in the Liang family's territory for more than 30 years, but it's not for nothing!" ”
His explanation was very vague, and Wang Sancai couldn't help frowning, but before he could speak again, the guards in front seemed to hear the voice of the shopkeeper of the second dog, and immediately looked over to this side.
Wang Sancai was shocked, and hurriedly changed his words and said to Bai Xiao: "Xiaobai, don't be nervous, relax a little." ”
Bai Xiao didn't answer when he heard it, but he forcibly held back the fear in his heart and quickly sorted out his movements, gently holding Wang Sancai's arm with one hand, and gently stroking it with the other hand on his stomach again, and, in order not to expose his characteristics as a man, he also deliberately tightened his legs and covered his palms with a black coat.
"Hey, isn't this a second dog!" The guard who looked over there was a bit of surprise in his tone, and he waved his hand at the other guard: "Hey, you check the point yourself, I see an acquaintance." ”
After saying this, he walked slowly towards Wang Sancai and the others.
He looked a little old, and even a few gray hairs were faintly showing out of his sideburns, but he was in excellent spirits, and his eyes even flashed from time to time.
Wang Sancai and Bai Xiao were silent, and the shopkeeper of the second dog had already shown a smile on his face: "Hehe, Lord Wei Shengjin, I didn't expect you to stand guard in person today!" ”
If it was in normal times, as soon as he heard the name of this guard, Wang Sancai would definitely not help laughing, it was not enough to meet a Bi Yuntao and An Quantao before, this time he actually met a Wei Shengjin?
It's just that Wang Sancai can't smile now, so he can only smile with a friendly face, waiting for the shopkeeper of the second dog to "make a move".
"Don't say you don't know, didn't you post a wanted notice recently, every pedestrian who enters the city must be strictly checked, do you think I'm willing to do these boring things?" Wei Shengjin rolled his eyes as he walked over, and even sighed in his mouth: "You don't know how many brothers envy you now, you don't have to worry about anything, just sit and collect money." ”
"Hey, Brother Wei Shengjin said this." The shopkeeper of the second dog stood up, stepped out of the carriage, and said with an unhappy expression: "If I just sit and collect money, I can't come here early this fucking morning." ”
His last sentence and the action of stepping out of the carriage instantly made Wang Sancai's heart twitch, Wang Sancai was ready to summon the camp characters at any time, if the second dog shopkeeper dared to betray the two of them at this time, he would be dealt with as soon as possible.
"Well, I'm still wondering, if you can come here at this time, it will be at least midnight if you leave your little place?" Wei Shengjin had already walked in front of the shopkeeper of Ergouzi, he seemed to have a good relationship with the shopkeeper of Ergouzi, and he raised his hand and gave a friendly punch to the shopkeeper of Ergouzi, and said with a smile: "You get up in the middle of the night and hurry, tell my brother quickly, have you encountered something?" ”
After saying this, Wei Shengjin's eyes inevitably fell on the carriage of the second dog shopkeeper, his expression suddenly changed, his eyes stayed on Bai Xiao's body for a moment, and then fell back to the body of the second dog shopkeeper, his expression was dazed, his tone changed, and he pointed to the carriage that Wang Sancai and Bai Xiao were riding in and said, "Who are the two of them?"
