Chapter 49: The Legendary Great Prince
The young martial artist said proudly: "The guards of this forbidden army are all good at one in a hundred miles in the army, and then after the secret training of the royal family, all of them are one enemy and hundreds of people ♀ who form the 'Qiankun Infinite Whirlwind Killing Array', and the great prince is surrounded by the big prince, it is impenetrable, not even a mosquito can fly in, everyone think about it, just watching this battle can make people scared to 'pee' pants." ”
"What's next?
"yes, have you beaten it?"
Where did everyone know such a detailed matter, at most, they just heard the news that the eldest prince was crowned the king of Shicheng, and at this time, their eyes widened one by one, and they asked urgently.
The young martial artist foamed at the mouth and said: "Hundreds of forbidden army guards surrounded the eldest prince like iron buckets, and guess what, as a result, there was a loud bang, as if a thunderbolt came from the clear sky, and the forbidden army was shocked like a piece of paper and flew out, falling on the main hall in all directions, one by one in pain and unable to get up, and then look at the eldest prince, standing in the middle of the hall calmly, stretching out his hand and gently flicking the dust on his shirt, just using one trick. ”
"This great prince is so powerful, I don't know what Nirvana he looks like?" a young woman's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but ask.
The young martial artist said: "His Royal Highness the Great Prince is more than eight feet tall, his body is like an iron tower, his body is as strong as a tiger, he has thick eyebrows and big eyes on his face with Chinese characters, and the bridge of his nose is high, he is very kingly, he is born with divine power, and he can lift a stone lion when he is half a year old......"
Fang Ling felt that his mental ability was good enough, and he was as calm as a stone when he went to the palace hall, but when he heard the young man talk about this, he really couldn't calm down, and he felt like he laughed out loud.
This young martial artist is indeed eloquent, although these words are too exaggerated, but he actually believes what everyone said, especially his expression, which is serious, as if he has seen it himself.
And he also keenly noticed that although this young man had added a lot of fuel and vinegar, he must be very well-informed in terms of information.
At this time, the two young martial artists had left beforehand, so Fang Ling picked up his things and walked over, pointing to the vacant seat and smiling: "This big brother, can I sit here?"
The young martial artist smiled and said, "Of course, this seat is meant to be sitting." ”
Fang Ling looked at the table and ordered only a plate of peanuts and wine, so he asked Xiao Er to come up with a pot of good wine, and then pushed the wine in front of the young martial artist, and said with a smile: "Big brother let me listen to such a vivid story, this pot of wine should be regarded as my gratitude." ”
The young martial artist was also very cheerful, and said, "Since the little brother can afford to be my Prophet Meng, then I won't thank you." As he spoke, he poured the wine, took a sip, and nodded straight and said, "Does the little brother know why I don't go to other inns, so I like to come here?"
"Because of the wine?" Fang Ling speculated.
Meng Xian smiled and said: "Yes, I am just a sip of wine, this inn food is average, but this wine is the best quality." It's a pity that I am shy in my pocket, so I have to tell stories here and share a piece of the pie with everyone. ”
Although Prophet Meng had no money, he didn't have the slightest sense of embarrassment, but seemed generous, and Fang Ling couldn't help but feel a little good, so he asked, "I don't know what Brother Meng is doing?"
Meng Prophet said, "I am a merchant. ”
"Running merchants?" Fang Ling said puzzled.
Meng Xian explained: "The merchant is to help the merchant deliver goods, for example, if a merchant in the city needs to send a certain piece of goods to a neighboring county, I can help deliver it, and the price will be much cheaper than the post station, because the speed is much faster because it is dedicated to delivery." ”
Fang Ling's heart moved: "So, Brother Meng is very familiar with the surrounding counties and cities?"
Meng Xian took another sip of wine and said with a smile: "Of course, if you want to speed faster than the horses of the post station, you have to be familiar with this avenue and trail, and I dare not say anything else, from this Zou County to Pingtan Pass, whether it is a avenue or a trail, a mountain or a waterway, I am clear." ”
Fang Ling listened to the secret joy, his most problem now is that He Bao and others can't find themselves, and go directly to Pingtan Pass to intercept, Pingtan Pass is the second checkpoint that must be passed through to Shicheng, out of the Qingping Pass after the three official roads will be combined there into one, forming a straight road to Pingtan Pass, that road is the smoothest, but it is also Fang Ling's most, once you meet He Bao and others there, it will be difficult to get rid of them again, they will definitely not be stupid enough to do it on the official road, it is very likely that in addition to Pingtan Pass, there is also Baijiang.
The Baijiang River is a big river outside the Pingtan Pass, passing from west to east, stretching dozens of counties, its river is extremely turbulent, there are accidents every year, if they do something there, it is impossible to prevent it.
Therefore, it was necessary to avoid He Bao's men and horses outside Pingtan Pass, cross the Baijiang River unconsciously, and reach the northern border, which saved a lot of trouble.
Fang Ling asked, "Then apart from the Daguan Road outside Pingtan Pass, is there any other way to go to Pingtan Pass?"
Meng Zhiyuan said with a smile: "Of course there is, there are several mountain roads alone, although they are a little steeper, but they are more time-saving than the official roads." ”
Fang Ling continued to ask, "I don't know how much money Brother Meng can get when he goes to Pingtan Pass?"
Although this was asked abruptly, Meng Zhiyuan did not hesitate, and said calmly: "It usually takes three days to go to Pingtan Pass from here, and I only use two and a half days, and generally one kilogram of goods will cost 60 copper coins for the post station, and I only charge 40 Wen." ”
Fang Ling smiled and said, "Then I don't know if Brother Meng is free tomorrow, I want you to help consign some goods to Pingtan Pass." ”
"Absolutely. Meng Zhiyuan agreed.
The two made an appointment to meet at the Sanli Pavilion outside the city, Fang Ling originally had no copper coins on him, and happened to find some change when he bought "medicine" materials in Linshui County, so he took 20 Wen out as a deposit.
Fang Ling watched Meng Zhiyuan leave, and then went upstairs, although it was only a short period of contact, but this person looked very arrogant and open-mouthed on the surface, but he was also quite cheerful and honest, these two very different "sex" personalities were perfectly integrated into this person, so that Fang Ling also paid some attention to it.
In the evening, Fang Ling was woken up by the sound outside, he gently pushed open the door and looked outside, and suddenly saw several catchers knocking on the door one by one to check, and standing in the direction of the door, he happened to see Wu Tianbao downstairs with a swollen head.
Of course, Fang Ling would not be stupid enough to think that Wu Tianbao came to Zou County by chance, and came to this inn by chance.
He hurriedly closed the door, "plugged" the latch, and then tied the "medicine" tripod and the fire pattern beast horn knife to his back, quietly climbed from the window to the eaves on the second floor, stepped on the tiles and came to Xiao Xue's room lightly, pushed the window and saw that it was not closed tightly, so he pushed it open.
At this time, Xiao Xue was practicing cross-legged, and seemed to have woken up, and when she saw the window open, she saw that it was Fang Ling, her brows suddenly sank, and she said vigilantly: "What are you doing outside?"
Seeing her look like a vigilant "pervert" wolf, Fang Ling couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he didn't have time to dwell on this issue, he just lowered his voice and said, "Wu Tianbao is here, come out quickly!"
Xiao Xue was taken aback, hurriedly grabbed something, and walked over.
However, when he arrived at the window, he frowned slightly, just because the window was high, if he wanted to climb out, someone would need to pull him outside, and the eaves outside were also very narrow, so it was inevitable that there would be physical contact.
It's just that there is nothing to avoid when she escapes, Xiao Xue sighed helplessly.
Fang Ling grabbed her hand and held her waist, although the situation was urgent at this time, Fang Ling's heart still moved for no reason, this hand was as tender as tofu, he even wanted to pinch it gently.
And when Xiao Xue fell, she was almost thrown into her arms, although Xiao Xue took a step back in just a moment, but Fang Ling still clearly smelled her fragrance, and even subconsciously stared at her red lips, having the urge to take a sip.
But this thought flashed, he hurriedly knocked on Huang Jian's window again, and as soon as he heard that Wu Tianbao had actually chased here, Huang Jian was angry and angry, and hurriedly climbed out.
The three of them followed the window to the stable, and Fang Ling saw that there were only two catchers guarding there, and when they fell, they stunned the two of them with one palm on the left and right.
The three of them hurriedly got on the horse, and when they got on the horse, Fang Ling suddenly found that there was a wooden sign hanging under the horse's neck, and then looked at the other two horses, which also had this and this brand.
Huang Jian also suddenly came over at this time: "Horse card!"
Fang Ling finally understood, why Wu Tianbao would find here, because he was in a hurry at the post station, he didn't pay attention to the objects on the horse's body, but now he knows that the horse in the post station actually has a horse plate, and this horse card has a number.
Although there are only portraits of the three people painted on the wanted warrant, the catcher in the county must know the number of the horse the three of them are riding, and the second child of the inn found the horse plate when he checked the horse, and then reported it, so Wu Tianbao is not surprised to find here.
The suspicion was solved, and without further ado, the three of them immediately fled on horseback.
As soon as he ran out of the backyard, the catcher in front of the door immediately found it and chased him out shouting.
The three of Fang Ling rode their horses and galloped, and the pedestrians around them hurriedly dodged, and soon, they saw the city gate from a distance.
Seeing the three of them rushing wildly, the guards at the city gate, although they did not understand what was going on, shouted to stop, and began to close the city gate.
Seeing that the city gate was halfway closed, but the three of them were still some distance away, Fang Ling frowned violently.
Without Chen Mou by his side, he didn't know which faction this county guard was, so there was no way to "reveal" his identity, once the matter reached He Bao's ears, he was likely to chase him halfway to Pingtan Pass.
At this time, the guards on the city tower were already setting up bows and arrows, and there were six guards under the city, and there were more than a dozen catchers chasing from a distance behind, it was okay to deal with these by yourself, but if Huang Jian and Xiao Xue were there, then they would have to be restrained.
