Chapter 165: Think about it and do it
After the sun set, a mist rose in the mountains and forests.
As far as the eye can see, the official road winds all the way and disappears into the mountains in the distance, and it is not clear to see.
There are some people who pass by the station, but the number is not comparable to that of the daytime.
This shop next to the post station provides meals for business travelers to stop and eat.
Not to mention the daytime, there is still intermittent business coming to the door at this time.
The temperature outside the door is very low, and the official road is more spacious than the ordinary road in the mountains.
Correspondingly, the mountain wind is unavoidable.
Walking on the road, the cold wind was blowing in the face, and the people in the carriage were fine, but those who drove the carriage and ran directly on their horses were cold enough.
Seeing this shop on the side of the official road, few people will pass by directly
There were all kinds of people who came to the store, from foreigners from the north to ordinary people who did business in Sealand.
The latter is even more widespread, and accents can be heard in the inns from all over Sealand.
Some people stop and eat in the restaurant, and often ask for a pot of spirits and a few sips to ward off the cold.
There are very few people who travel north without wine with them on the way.
Some people temporarily paused, packed and bought some food and continued to hurry, in a hurry.
Regardless of the type of stay, the lights are always on to take care of the customers
At this moment, there were several tables of people sitting in the store, and several guards brought by Tianfang happened to sit together.
The two injured people must have not drunk a drop of wine because of Tianfang's special instructions, but the other two guards who accompanied them also only needed a small pot of wine.
The reason is that they are worried that the plan will change, and if they suddenly give an order and have to set off in the middle of the night to continue the journey, they will not dare to be greedy
Tianfang went to rest in the inn alone, and did not bring them to the store with him.
The four of them sat at a table, and their own masters were not there, and they spoke relatively freely.
The topic has come full circle, and it has to revolve around the matter of finding people.
The most important thing of this trip, the task was originally to find the little junior sister of the Lord, and it turned into a futile return, not to mention the Lord, and their hearts were not a taste.
"When we were in the capital of Sealand, we dealt with people over there because of our missions."
"Speaking of which, it gives us the impression that it is not the same as the previous secret guards."
One of the injured reached out and took a sip of hot tea, looked at the other three companions.
"When we were in the national capital, I thought that those people looked very good and spoke very kindly."
The remaining three exchanged glances, and the guard with the most direct personality spoke: "This time and that time." ”
He shifted his gaze to his injured companion and whispered, "At that time, it was because we had to join forces, of course they were polite." ”
He paused, looked at the injured and lowered his voice and asked, "The dark guard who appeared in the forest, how is his kung fu?" Have you seen a similar routine before? ”
Actually, it wasn't the first time he **** had this problem, but when he put it the day before, he felt that the injured would have concerns.
The wounded understood the meaning of the guard's words, they exchanged glances, and after thinking carefully, they said: "It's really not, it's not that we don't dare to say it to the Lord, and the Lord is not here at the moment."
He replied earnestly, "We didn't see what tricks each other was using. ”
"I won't tell you two, don't mention the time when we were training in Haiguo, we've traveled a lot over the years."
One of the wounded sighed and said, "I have never seen such a ruthless opponent, and he doesn't give him any leeway." ”
"It's the one" The guard thought for a moment, and couldn't think of what to call for a moment, that person had too many identities.
After thinking about it, he still followed the title he had heard before.
"It's that childe's hole card!"
After thinking about it, the guard said: "It will definitely not be shown in normal times, this time it is to prevent our lord from continuing to track, so I have to use it." ”
After the guard finished speaking, the other three looked at each other again, and nodded in unison.
After thinking about it, I felt that this seemed to make sense, because the dark guard must have received the order.
If it can't be completed, it will be the same as the people of their sea country who have taken over the task and become yellow, and they will definitely not be good!
The other party shot ruthlessly, and that was also because the orders from above could not be disobeyed.
If there is pressure in the heart, it is natural to use real kung fu.
As guards who are on the road all year round and frequently perform tasks, they can also think about this from each other's point of view.
For them, compared to the dissatisfaction of being plotted, there is more loss of inferior skills!
The guards of the Sea Kingdom are also selected from the elite, and they have no chance of winning when they meet the secret guards, isn't it a slap in the face?
There was a brief silence at the table, and several people looked down in thought and did not speak.
After a short while, the guard lowered his voice again and said, "You said that in this way, will our lord keep going north to the place where he wants to go, or will he allocate manpower and continue to track over there, but"
"It must be the former you said."
The companion sitting next to him interrupted him without thinking: "The Lord stopped because of the project on the Haiguo side, and the other party has a hidden pile." ”
"That's right, it's the truth, the Lord has concerns, otherwise even if you fight that person head-on, you will definitely not give up and quit easily."
The injured person on the side said deeply.
The guard glanced in the direction of the post station through the window, and said thoughtfully, "Now, what can we do?" ”
"Give the Lord a little time, he will definitely come up with a way to deal with it, we are just people who do things underneath, don't be too anxious."
"And this kind of thing, we can't be in a hurry."
The companion replied in the affirmative.
As he spoke, a small caravan of people came in at the door, adding up to about a dozen people, who sat at a few tables in the store.
After taking their seats, they hurriedly found their fellows to get something to eat, and it seemed that they were hungry and cold enough.
"This weather!"
When they came in, they brought up the curtains, and the cold air from outside poured into the house.
Before, when the guards walked in the mountains with the sky, they felt better, because they rarely stopped to rest all the time, and the sky was still bright at that time.
When I arrived at the store this time, I sat in the warm room for a while, and the cold wind that blew in made me feel a little shivering!
"This weather," the guard muttered in agreement.
"The Lord remembered that you two were injured, and he was sympathetic to us, so he didn't say that he would travel overnight."
The TV guard swept over the tables where the caravan members were seated, and watched the young men in the shop busily rush to the back kitchen to explain to the cook.
He stared for a moment in the direction in which the young man had disappeared, and then swept his gaze over the corner of the ledger to see the man who was lazily behind the ledger.
This shop is also strange, the young man is so busy that his feet don't touch the ground, and the one behind the account doesn't mean to help at all, but he doesn't look like a shopkeeper when he looks dressed.
After looking around, there seemed to be nothing unusual about anything else, and the guard withdrew his gaze.
The companion was silent for a moment, raised his head to look at him, and then took a sip of wine and said, "It's okay here, but it's cold when you get to the north." ”
"Originally, the people we sent thought that the Northland side had already arranged it properly."
One of the wounded followed the guard's line of sight across the store.
After a while, he retracted his gaze and stared back at his companion and said, "Our lord will encounter such a thing, and I have to worry that the prince still has means in the north." ”
Of course, the companion could hear the meaning of the guard's words.
In the dense forest of the deep valley, he met a secret attack.
So since the other party can stop it once, it is difficult to say when it will be next time.
Especially on the Northland side, the goal originally set, the things arranged by the Lord, will there be a secret guard suddenly appearing to obstruct it at that time?
If you think about it, it's not impossible.
Both sides have their own goals, but sometimes conflicts arise because of similar goals.
For example, that son, he didn't want his master to find the little junior sister smoothly and interfere in the affairs related to the little junior sister.
Hearing this, several people nodded and felt reasonable, and the one who spoke before paused, frowned, and muttered to himself: "I think I need to send a message to remind the Northland." ”
"We have to be careful, it's necessary."
At least in his opinion, this is very important, and he doesn't want to make extraneous complications, if he can't cope with it!
"But we can't make our own decisions, we have to ask the Lord about this."
His companion was silent, his eyes fixed on him in deep thought, and then his tone was cautious.
"What's more, if we have any position, the winner can come forward."
His companion's gaze wandered over the one who had spoken, and then he added.
The guard sighed, staring at the opposite wall for a long moment without saying a word.
The sound of the conversation of the guests at the table next to me rang in my ears.
"Look, do you want to find an opportunity to talk to the Lord?"
The guard pursed his lips after a moment's thought.
Before I knew it, the focus of the conversation was thrown back to my companions.
Among the four people, the two guards who acted with Tianfang, the one with a quiet and calm personality could easily become the object of temporary decision-making among them.
Because, he thinks more carefully every time, and his personality is not as impulsive as his companions who do tasks together, which is almost an innate trait.
Perhaps when Tianfang chose people, it also took this into account.
The manpower he arranged, one suitable for acting as a pioneer, was ahead of the curve every time he explored the way.
The other is suitable for guarding, guarding companions, and at the right time being the one who assists the Celestial Releases in making certain decisions.
"The Lord is in the post station at this time, maybe he is writing a letter, and after eating, we will go to the post station to find him, or just in time for the right time."
The companion and the guards looked at each other for a moment, pondered for a moment, and then said in a light tone.
Several people immediately sped up their meals, and the guards stopped in the middle once, and by the way, they asked the young men in the store to pack some food and prepare to take it to the post station to hand it over to Tianfang.
If you count the shops next to the station, there are some heavy dishes.
For example, the freshly killed and boiled mutton soup that is popular with guests from the Northland.
These dishes are replaced by the common people of Sealand, and a considerable number of people may not be able to get used to eating them, but the guards are worried about the mood of the day, so they only choose a few light dishes in the store.
After they had finished eating, their companions came forward to pay the money, carrying some rough food boxes in the store, and several people walked out of the store.
There is a faint light on the mountain road, and you can hear the sound of horses' hooves in the distance.
There was more than one post station to the north, but the guards came out of Suzhou City all the way, passed through Nanhua Town in the middle, and later diverted to the mountains and walked.
Counting the entire trip so far, this is the first time I have met a station
Feeling the chill in the mountains on the winter night, a few of them quickened their pace and turned into the courtyard of the post station.
The guard looked up at the upstairs of the inn, where the sky was placed in one of the rooms, and now opened the window and looked out.
Looking out of the post station, the scenery that can be seen is not only the mountains and fields, but also the carriages and horses passing on the winding official road
The guards had a brief discussion downstairs, and decided that it would be up to their companions to come forward and talk to Tianfang about the message from the Northland.
It's one thing for the Lord to think about it, as a subordinate of Tianfang, they thought of it by themselves, and it was the embodiment of using their brains to do things
In the cave passage, I reacted quickly and retreated a long time ago, but Uncle Decay didn't react at all when he heard the young man's words.
He lowered his head and was immersed in some emotion.
I saw my uncle continue to pick up the stones from the pile of rocks in front of him with his hands, and throw them to the side one by one.
It seemed that he wanted to continue, even if the boy reminded him.
What's going on with that guy?
I was slightly stunned, frowned and looked in his direction, and after thinking about it, I couldn't help muttering in my heart.
I couldn't tell what my uncle was thinking for a while, so I glanced at him and didn't speak for a while.
"Go to Xiaoling's side, that location is safer."
The boy repeated it in a rare good-natured manner, and this time Uncle Decrepit finally had a reaction.
He looked at the young man and whispered, "There were no roadblocks in this section last time, and I clearly remember that I was able to pass it smoothly." ”
"Whether it can pass smoothly or not, you have to wait for me to try!"
The boy lost his patience, reached out and dragged him away from the pile of stones, and said in a deep voice, "Stay aside!" ”
"Uncle," I watched the movements of the two people in front of me and shouted in their direction, "Uncle, quickly stand back!"
The personality of the tsundere boy, isn't the uncle still unclear, do you have to provoke him and get beaten up?
"Uncle, he's going to try it and move the barricade!"
I reminded him, "Uncle, don't delay time and hinder the eldest young master's work. ”
After saying that, I took the initiative to make the distance farther away. (To be continued.) )
