Chapter 266: Site Selection of the New Cottage
Chapter 267
Both sides stared at each other, and both were stunned at the same time. Cheng Dalei also recognized the other party at this time, but he couldn't believe it for a while, how could the six princes of the dignified empire be so down-and-out like this, with his hair scattered, his face covered with dirt, and he was alive and well as an ape Taishan.
"My own people, my own people, they all recognize what they are still pressuring me to do. Li Xingzai struggled: "Let me go!"
Cheng Dalei waved his hand, and Qin Man and Zhao Zilong let the two go.
Li Xingzai's spirit was quite good, and after standing up, he jumped and jumped, and said to Li Wan'er: "Little sister, why did you get involved with this bandit, you were kidnapped by him!"
"It's a long story, Sixth Brother should talk about you first. Li Wan'er suddenly felt that it was a shame to have such a brother.
"I'm going to say it even longer. Li Xingzai sighed with his hands in his hands, but because his body was in tatters, he didn't have any temperament.
Cheng Dalei shifted his gaze to another person and said, "You have a good lasso, Rong people?"
Li Xingya patted the other party's shoulder excitedly: "Fudeler, my friend." ”
Cheng Dalei has never seen Fudler, he has no feelings for the empire, and naturally he doesn't have any deep hatred for the Rong people, but he vaguely feels that the other party is a little afraid when he looks at him.
But the mood of the others and Cheng Dalei was different, as soon as they heard that the other party was the Rong clan, they suddenly felt like they were facing a great enemy, and they had already held their weapons.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. Li Xingya waved his hands: "This is my friend, my brother, he is not a bad person, not a bad person." ”
Li Xingzai's words are logically said that there is nothing wrong with them, the Rong people are also good and bad, and Fudeler may not be a bad person.
But he's not a bad guy, we are.
"Have you eaten or worn?" Li Xingzai said: "Hurry up, we have been hungry for several days." ”
Cheng Dalei found that it was really a shame to know Li Xingzai.
On the avenue, Li Xingzai ate wolf-eating, as if he was reincarnated as a starving ghost, and everyone was a little speechless when they looked at him.
"Sixth brother, why did you get here?" Li Wan'er held the water bladder.
"How else can you get here, how can you escape? Li Xingzai said: "I was arrested in the northwest, and after the war, I fled to Bingzhou, and then fled from Bingzhou to Qingzhou, and I was almost arrested in Qingzhou, damn, so I fled here again." ”
"Why don't you go back to Chang'an, everyone is looking for you. ”
"I'm going to walk around again and see again. Li Xingzai said while eating, and suddenly choked and coughed, and Li Wan'er hurriedly handed over the water.
"What's the matter with you?" asked Li Xingya, "Where are you going?"
"Hey, you don't know yet. Cheng Dalei shook the official uniform on his body: "I am now a border guard of the imperial court, and now I am about to go to Qinchuan Pass to take office." ”
"Hey, I patronized and ate just now, but I didn't notice that you were quite energetic in this outfit. Li Xingzai finally gave up the dry food in his hand, suddenly remembered something, looked at Cheng Dalei and said, "Where did you just say you were going?" Qinchuan, I advise you not to go?"
"What's wrong with Qinchuan?" asked Cheng Dalei.
"We just escaped from there, look at the way I look now, don't you understand something?"
"Well, it's very much in line with your current temperament. ”
Li Xingzai pursed his lips, drew a line on the ground with a branch, and said while drawing his mouth:
"Qinchuan 800 miles, is the most important line of defense in the northwest, out of Qinchuan Pass is the Rong grassland, this road has always been the east and west trade land. ”
This Li Xingzai is worthy of receiving elite education, and he drew the general topography of Qinchuan with just a few strokes, and others can't understand it, but Cheng Dalei is extremely serious. He has some kind of inexplicable fascination with maps.
"Silk, tea, and ironware were transported to the customs outside the customs worth 10,000 gold, and the furs, jade, and horses outside the customs were also rare in the customs. However, the empire was not allowed to do business with the Rong people, so this trade route was banned. ”
Cheng Dalei nodded: "Then where is the danger of Qinchuan Pass?"
"The person who now occupies Qinchuan Pass is named Mo Mingmi, who was originally a group of bandits who gathered in the mountains and forests, but now he has been recruited and named the deputy general of Qinchuan, and the entire Qinchuan Pass is controlled by him. ”
"Bandits?"
As soon as they heard this, everyone laughed, everyone was originally a bandit, and even the Rong clan had beaten them, not to mention a few bandits.
"Then it seems that they are peers, and it is time for them to understand who the ancestor is. ”
"Teach them how to behave and do things. ”
Li Xingzai looked at this scene in a daze, and said in his heart: What kind of subordinates did Cheng Dalei bring out.
"Mo Mingmi has more than 10,000 people under him, how are you going to teach him the truth of being a man?"
Everyone was speechless.
Cheng Dalei asked: "Is it Mo Mingmi who controls this road and does some smuggling business, if this is the case, it is true that he will not allow others to get involved." ”
"Not really. Li Xingzai said: "Qinchuan Pass discovered iron ore, he plundered the nearby civilians to mine for him, and sold them to Fangyuan's trading houses for heavy profits. Fellow and I were also snatched up by him, and we managed to escape. ”
"Then it's a sweatshop. ”
"They dare to mine iron ore privately, sixth brother, are you going to send troops to attack them?" Li Wan'er.
"Hey, how can it be so easy, the interests are intertwined, I have no soldiers to adjust, and with Mo Mingmi's ability alone, I can't play such a big plate, there must be someone behind him, but I don't know who it is." "Li Xingzai.
Cheng Dalei has vaguely understood that iron mining is a heavy profit, how could Mo Mingmi let himself get involved in this business, and now there are 10,000 soldiers in Qinchuan Pass, and if he goes, he will die. And Cheng Dalei probably guessed who the person behind Mo Mingmi was.
"Then let's not go to Qinchuan first. Cheng Dalei said: "Find a place to camp, and then see if there is a suitable place in this mountain to build a cottage, and we will settle here in the future." ”
"Big boss, do you have any requirements for the new cottage?" asked Xu Shenji.
"Absolutely. Cheng Dalei spat out a sentence: "There must be water." ”
"If you need a new cottage, I know a place. Li Xingzai said.
"Hey, do you know?" Cheng Dalei's eyes widened: "It turns out that you are the guiding NPC this time, tell me, what do you know?"
"What is an NPC?" Li Xingzai was a little confused, shook his head and said: "The place I am talking about is the original Mo Mingmi's cottage, or it can be said to be a water village, there is no other characteristic, that is, there is a lot of water." ”
"More water is the best way to do it. Cheng Dalei said: "Where is the place?"
"The place is easy to find, but I'm afraid it's not very easy to do, and now it's occupied. ”
"Who's taking it?"
"Not people. Li Xingzai said: "It's a snake ......"
