Chapter 16: A Thousand Miles Away

The two of them didn't have time to dwell on this matter, because there were still eight days before the mountain was closed, and they had to rush to Qianlu City within eight days, not to mention that Yu Ji's arm was just an emergency treatment, and the matter of muscles and bones could not be delayed for a long time, so on the second day, the two of them set off to Qianlu City. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Without the cover of the fog, this Qianlu City is already close at hand, but the two of them still know the truth of Wangshan running a dead horse, and they can now see it from afar, but if they really want to go, they are afraid that they will have to walk for a day or two to arrive.

"There's a tea shop ahead, let's take a break."

Yu Ji nodded.

After a day's journey, her body was not as good as before, not only coughing, but also hurting her arm, obviously not wearing a thin dress, but she felt that the cold wind seemed to be blowing in her bones, Yu Ji knew that she had probably hurt her vitality before, and because of the injury to her arm, it was natural to have these symptoms, but she still frowned inadvertently, she didn't like the current "weak and windy" herself, as if a snowstorm could sweep her away.

Especially in that dream, after climbing the uninhabited peak, her two eyebrows, which were already flying, seemed to become more murderous, and the originally childish little face became a little angular, closer to what she looked like when she was in her twenties, but now she is obviously still 14 years old.

Entering the tea shop, Yu Ji trembled slightly, breathed a long sigh of relief, and sat down in an upwind position close to the charcoal fire, while roasting the charcoal fire, while not choking on the smoke, if this throat inhales the black smoke, I am afraid that I will cough earth-shattering.

It's really depressing, Yu Ji can endure the pain, can endure the heat and cold, but just this cough, but she can't bear it, and she can't bear it for a long time, which is not as useful as a sip of water. What makes her scratch her head even more is that every time she coughs, no matter how strong the wind blows, no matter how low she coughs, Brother Yu Lu can always hear it, and Yu Ji doesn't know what the look in Brother Yu Han's eyes is, blame herself? Not like. Sympathize? Even more wrong. She couldn't tell what it was, but it always made her feel awkward.

Brother Yu put the big package he had been carrying on a stool, "Shopkeeper, come here for a few dumplings, a plate of meat, pick up a few fruits, and then serve a pot of hot tea, be quick!" ”

"Okay~" The shopkeeper responded enthusiastically, picked up the teapot, came over and turned over two upside-down bowls on the table, added two bowls of hot tea to them, and quickly went back to the back kitchen, thinking that it was time to prepare for food.

In a short time, all three were in place.

Yu Ji took a dumpling and was about to stuff it directly into her mouth, but she saw a pear enlarged in front of her eyes.

Helpless, Yu Ji had no choice but to take it, and ate the pear in two bites before continuing to eat hot tea and gluttony.

"Big brother, can we do it this time? I heard that the family surnamed Yuan is not easy to mess with, and a group of people went before, but they didn't come back! ”

Yu Ji's ears moved, and she glanced at Brother Yu Lu, pretending not to hear anything, and continued to bow her head and eat.

"Hey, what do you know?" The boss deliberately lowered his voice to speak, but the voices of the few of them were heavy and heavy, and no matter how much they pressed it, Yu Ji and the others who were separated by a curtain could still hear clearly.

"The surnamed Yuan has been gone for the past few days, only his wife and his mute son are left, if we go today, in addition to completing the tasks assigned by the employer, we can also have a woman to play!"

Yu Ji and Brother Yu Lu looked at each other again, wife and mute son? Not here for a few days? Could it be......

"Boss, is this news really accurate?" Several other people obviously had lingering fears about this "surnamed Yuan" and didn't dare to start easily.

"Nonsense!" The boss roared out, and saw that there were a few eyes next to him looking at them, so he spoke in a suppressed voice, "If this news is not accurate, you dare to take this job?" I'm not tired of being alive again! ”

"Boss, is there more oil and water this time?" It was another man's voice, obviously a little more greedy than the cautious and cautious man who had been before.

"Hehe, that's the amount of the deposit."

"Boss, what are we waiting for? No risk, there is still a lot of oil and water, do it! The fourth man's voice was full of the meaning of a man who licked blood with a knife, and was both dumb and ruthless.

Yu Ji sat in the same position as she was sitting with the charcoal fire on her back, and the person who spoke was the same as where she was sitting. The charcoal fire made a small pop, and the curtain was slightly bulged by the fire, and Yu Ji took the opportunity to peek at the man. Bald, with a large metal earring in his left ear, and a face full of flesh, it is difficult for such a person to believe that he is a good person just by looking at his appearance.

"Bald, shut up! The boss must have the boss's consideration, listen to the boss. There was a bit of sternness in this voice, and it was the fifth person.

"I see, third brother." There was a little more impatience and convincing in the bald man's originally fierce voice, obviously this "third brother" has an unusual status in this group of people, or in the heart of the bald man.

"Why do you have to pay such a high price as an employer? The man surnamed Yuan has vast magical powers, and his means are comparable to those of immortals, but he is more ruthless than us. If he comes back and finds that his wife has been given by us... My son was also lost, and the last check will soon be able to find out our brothers' heads. Besides, if he can do this kind of thing, how can the employer be a good stubble, in case he adds fuel to the fire in the end, let the wind go, and says that our brothers did it, we will not escape death. This person's house is in the dark, we are in the light, and we can't push it out if we want to. "The boss is very organized, although the words are a little rough, but the reason is good.

"Boss, what are we going to do?" This is the voice of greed, how can he be willing to see that the cooked duck is about to fly from his mouth?!

The boss didn't say anything about it, but he was anxious about these people and asked one after another.

"Stop for a while, since the boss has taken it, there must be a way, see if you are in a hurry!" It was the cautious guy who said this, but now that he looks at it, this guy who was cautious just now is not a fuel-efficient lamp, otherwise he would never have spoken like this in front of everyone.

"Yes, yes, the second brother is right, the boss must have a way."

"yes, how can the boss have no choice, right, boss?"

It was only at this time that the boss spoke slowly, "There is naturally a way, this time the oil and water are thick enough, not to mention three years of opening, even ten years of eating is enough, so it is worth paying a little price." ”

"Of course! Boss, this time there is too much oil and water, even if it is an adventure, you have to do it! ”

"That's right, but you have to think about the way out first." Sure enough, they are still cautious and cautious, and they don't think about making progress and retreating first, but it is this kind of caution that makes them not know how much blood they have shed and how many lives they have lost.

"Well, of course I've already thought about it, so we have to wait for two days, and when it's over, we can start work here."

"Boss, I know you're the most wise!"

"Huh? I'll have to wait two days......" It was obviously the bald man who spoke, but he was interrupted by a slap before he finished speaking.

"What's the noise? You can't stop for these two days? Even if it's for you and your brothers, these little lives! ”

"Got it, third brother!"

Yu Ji looked at Brother Yu Lu, only to see Brother Yu Lu gesticulating.

There are thirteen people on the other side?!

It's troublesome now, Brother Yu Lu's legs are not good, and her arms are still broken, so she can only carry it to Qianlu City in front of her by applying a certain anesthetic...... That's it! After all, there is a relationship in the same house, and you can't see death without help!

Yu Ji and Brother Yu Lu glanced at each other, and saw that the other party also thought the same way, so they quickly settled the bill, rushed to the post station on the other side of the road, rented two horses, and galloped towards Yun Niang's house.

"Brother Yu Lu, what price did you sell that tiger, enough to find Langzhong, enough to eat, and enough to rent a horse?"

"Ninety taels."

"So much? Doesn't it mean that ordinary gold and silver are about the same as they were 2,000 years ago? ”

“…… Tiger Whip. After finishing speaking, Brother Yu Lu raised his hand and gave the horse, overtook Yu Ji, and ran ahead.

"Huh? Hahahaha......" Yu Ji was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, laughed loudly, and chased after her.
