Chapter 69: The Master Comes Forward
The wine jug hovered in the air, Qin Gufeng didn't let the first bounce jump into the air, and when his hand was about to touch the body of the kettle, he was kicked away by one foot, and the wine jug circled towards the right air.
Qin Gufeng landed first, and then jumped up, He Xiu kicked each other with his feet in the process of falling, and his body flew towards the right, and the wine jug just fell into his hand.
Qin Gufeng slashed with one palm, He Xiu's grip was unsteady, and the wine jug took out his hand, but his body turned over and kicked Qin Gufeng's arm to pick the pot, and the wine jug was not caught by him and fell vertically.
The two of them were heavier than the flasks, so they descended quickly, and the flasks landed above their heads, and their hands flashed at each other, trying to catch the flasks at the first opportunity.
As the body fell to the ground, the wine jug also came to the middle chest of the two, Qin Gufeng couldn't bear to show weakness, and with one palm, the wine jug flew into the air again.
All of a sudden, the two began to punch and kick each other on the ground again, and the penetrating injuries on He Xiu's body were not yet good, and he gradually felt that he was slow to shoot and had difficulty defending himself.
Qin Gufeng gradually gained the upper hand, taking advantage of He Xiu's unpreparedness, he bounced to his back and kicked his knees, He Xiu suddenly knelt on one leg, Qin Gufeng immediately seized this opportunity, stepped on his left shoulder, bounced up, caught the wine jug in mid-air, and took a sip of spirits.
"Brother Qin, aren't you afraid that I will poison the wine?"
When he saw Qin Gufeng last time, He Xiu had been pondering this person in his heart, and he found that all this kind of person, talking to him and communicating with him had to follow their way, and as a result, he thought of this method that was not a way, and let him speak: "You won't." ”
As he spoke, half a pot of wine was drunk by him in one go, Qin Gufeng threw the jug to him and sat cross-legged in front of him: "You have injuries on your body, I won't win, and the rest will be left to you." ”
A dignified bandit leader was able to say such a sentence, if ordinary people heard it, they would definitely think that he had other purposes, but He Xiu was completely able to understand: "Haha, Brother Qin, tell me why you intercepted my Guan family's things." ”
"If you tell me about this, I advise you to die of this heart, this king and I will not reveal a word. ”
The more he said this, the more He Xiu wondered in his heart, what benefits did the government give them, it would make his mouth so rigorous, his head was running rapidly, and then he threw out an answer: "The shop on the main street is your person, right?"
"That's right, this group of people was cornered by your Guan family, so they had to follow me to rob the house and eat. ”
"Brother Qin, you are wrong, it's not that the Guan family is unwilling to reach out to help, but there is really something unspeakable in this. ”
He Xiu then remembered that when he first came here, there were many familiar faces in the gang of bandits he met, but they were destroyed by the years, and their faces had changed a little, so they would recognize them.
As for himself, the group of people probably recognized it a long time ago, but they just wanted to stab them in the back, after hearing Qin Gufeng's words, He Xiu wanted to tell everything about everything, but he was not a member of the Guan family after all, so he had to hide this heart.
You shouldn't tell me that, they're the ones you're listening to. ”
"The shops on the west side of that street have all opened for business, I think, Brother Qin, you don't have as many people as before. ”
"You're really a nosy person, this business and being a thief don't contradict each other, right?"
Qin Gufeng's implication, He Xiu heard it: "These people are honest businessmen during the day, and they specialize in robbing houses and houses at night, do you think the government will bypass them?"
"Okay, here's the wine money just now, you can go!"
Qin Gufeng jumped up, still lying on the branch leisurely, closing his eyes and sleeping soundly without caring about him.
Since this is the result, He Xiu is no longer bored with himself, he got up and patted his ass and returned to the bottom of the mountain with small steps, all the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers along the way were in his eyes, and all the boring mood of the past few days was left behind.
Time passed like flowing water, the goods of Huipeng Building had all been prepared, the horse team was ready to go in front of the courtyard, Qiao Shenming decided to escort him personally in order to be able to see the master with his own eyes, He Xiu also wanted to avoid this place of right and wrong for the time being, take a walk in a fresh place, and feel the human style of other places.
Suzhou City is ten days away from Qiman Town, and the Guan family convoy set off five days in advance according to the agreed delivery date, so they were not too anxious on the way to transportation, Qiao Shenming and He Xiu rode alone at the front of the car.
"Brother He, we are about to arrive at that nameless mountain, where is your master waiting for us?" After waiting for nearly twenty days, Qiao Shenming couldn't hold back any longer, perhaps because he was afraid that the goods would be lost again, so he asked anxiously.
"Brother Qiao, this master is in our convoy. ”
He Xiu's relaxed and casual answer made him look at the convoy in confusion: "Brother He, the people in this convoy have been with the Guan family for more than ten years, if you want to say that there are masters, there are indeed them, but there are really no masters like you said." ”
"Brother Qiao, you just have the patience to go forward, I promise you to see that master on time. ”
The convoy set off from the east gate in a mighty column, and thick dust was raised along the way, like soldiers on the march.
When the sun was at its peak, the nameless mountain came into view of the horses, and the heat in the air rose, and everything in the world looked blurry and bent a little.
Qiao Shenming was particularly vigilant, reined in the horse's head, and looked left and right: "Brother He, the situation is not good." ”
"Don't panic, the people behind are watching us!"
The people behind were talking about it, and they all looked nervous, and their eyes looked at the flowers and plants swaying on the mountainside with panic.
"Leave ...... money"
A shout sounded, and hundreds of bandits hiding in the flowers and grass shook the weapons in their hands, and surrounded the horse team like wolves.
"Acquaintances leave money and money, and get out, otherwise, the head on the neck will be left together. ”
The leader was the one-eyed man who had recruited He Xiu that day, and said to him viciously.
The family members in the convoy looked at this group of fierce bandits, they didn't dare to move, and looked at their backbone in a disorderly manner: "Haha, this big brother, why don't you see Brother Qin...... Oh...... By the way, I forgot that he was sleeping peacefully. ”
"Boy, you dare to call our eldest brother a brother, don't you want to live?ah!"
"Alas, I just had a long talk with your leader half a month ago, he is a few years older than me, and it is not surprising that he said big brother to him, if you don't mind, we can bow to the sky now......"
"Boy, you talk a lot of nonsense, brothers rob me!"
As soon as the one-eyed bandit ordered, He Xiu also glanced at his own people at the same time, asking them to step aside and not compete with them, all the bandits rushed up, and all the wooden boxes on the carriage were lifted, and then his eyes were full of surprise and anger.
"Brother Li, Brother Wang, Brother Liu, do you recognize the people inside?"
These three bandits were the initiators who led a group of merchants to ask for help from the Guan government in the last time in the national war, and at this time they deliberately painted their faces with mud, in order not to be recognized by acquaintances, but unfortunately, they ran into people like He Xiu, who were born for challenges.
"The second is in charge, this ......"
"Damn, hurry up!"
The one-eyed thief put the heavy steel knife on his shoulder, and swaggered towards the merchant surnamed Zhang: "Huh?"
"Brother He, you locked this master in a box, it doesn't seem to be etiquette, right?" Qiao Shenming had a smile in his eyes, obviously having guessed something.
The merchants who were recognized by He Xiu lowered their heads and didn't dare to say anything more, and the one-eyed thieves also looked at the contents of the box, with big eyes.
The person in charge of transportation also looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
He Xiu easily turned over and dismounted, Mu Sijian flipped to his side in his hand, and held a round statue in his hand: "This second master, do you know this person?"
Qiao Shenming, who was in front of the horse team, shook his head and laughed at this group of bandits, admiring the wisdom of this confidant in his heart.
The one-eyed bandit didn't say anything, just looked at the statue in a daze, He Xiu raised the statue above his head and spared the bandits: "Do you recognize this person?"
The Guan family's family members obviously knew what was going on, and they all covered their mouths and snickered when they looked at the faces and expressions of these fierce thieves.
"Oh, since you don't know each other, then I have to introduce you well," He Xiu still said aloud towards the route just now: "This is one of the most respected seniors in our Qiman Town, his old man loves the people like a son all his life, and is jealous of evil like hatred, and now, his old man heard that a group of bandits are harboring in this mountain, and he specially ordered me to carve the majesty of his old man's family into an image to deter you thieves who do all kinds of evil, how about it?" Brother Li, Brother Wang, Brother Liu, presumably the majesty of his old man, you have a deep understanding of it," Then he pointed to a line of words behind the statue and said: "By the way, some people may not know the words on it, I will read it to everyone, Guo Fengxiao is here, and all the thieves will be arrested!"
The scene fell silent for a while, and some of the members of the Guan family couldn't hold back their laughter, while the minions looked at the one-eyed bandit, but he looked up at the top of the mountain.
"Hoo ......"
A long sound of drowsiness came, and the one-eyed thief said fiercely to He Xiu: "Damn, you kid is ruthless enough, brothers, let's withdraw!"
The family danced happily, and after a while, they threw He Xiu into the air with each other's arms.
The shadow in my heart last time was washed away by a statue of Guo Fengxiao, and everyone packed up their mood, followed behind He Xiu, and set off again.
After this incident, the family members were full of confidence in the road ahead, and the speed of the march could not help but speed up a lot, there were many birds stopping on the convoy along the way, and the scenery on the side of the road was even more colorful.
The things in his heart finally came to an end, and He Xiu's heart began to worry about Guan Zhihe's safety, and Guo Zhenxing's evil eyes really made him speculate and uneasy.
With this in mind, they drove for three days, and at night, the convoy set up camp in place, lit a bonfire and sat around and talked, which was extraordinary and lacked the praise of He Xiu's superior wisdom again and again.
"As long as you follow He Gongzi, we can ensure that everyone arrives in Sioux City safely, and you can also earn a relatively considerable reward, okay, it's a special period, let's all disperse, hurry up and take a break." ”
After everyone went back, Qiao Shenming said what was in his heart to He Xiu: "If Guo Fengxiao knew about today's matter, would it ......?"
"Brother Qiao, don't worry, that line of words is our talisman, and he Guo Fengxiao doesn't dare to do anything to us. ”
"Hmm...... Yes, but I'm still a little worried, why don't we let the family members hype up this matter when we go to Sioux City, and praise him Guo Fengxiao's merits, I think he Guo Fengxiao will come to visit in person when the time comes, thank you, haha. ”
