(150) Chance is inevitable
As soon as Yanagi finished his specialty, it was natural that a subordinate who was standing a little farther away hurriedly approached. He held Ma An, who was about to fall to the ground, and together with another young man who approached a little later, he held Ma An's unconscious body left and right, and after nodding at Liu Sheng, he quickly walked away, not in the pine shade.
Seeing that his old friend who had been with him for more than ten years was taken away by his subordinates in this way, Lin Shan could only shake his head and said lightly to Liu Sheng, who was standing in front of him: "Can you not use drugs so frequently?" You must know that no matter how good the means are, it will not be good to use too much, and you will make the first thought of people who are familiar with you when they approach you is to guard against your hands. β
Liu Sheng felt a little uncomfortable and rubbed his hand that had drugged Ma An just now, and said in a low voice: "You don't allow us to tie him with a rope, and I don't believe that he will consciously follow us back when his body is free, so I can only do this." β
Regarding Liu Sheng's defense, Lin Shan didn't say anything more about it. After sighing lightly, he withdrew his gaze from the direction Ma An had left, and landed on a young man with his hair loosely tied up on his back and resolute eyes among the few people still standing beside him, and said with a smile, "Didn't I say that it would be enough for you to send a few people to guard here?" Why are you both here? But...... That's fine, if it weren't for that, he wouldn't have given up so quickly. β
Among the few people who gathered around just now, in addition to Liu Sheng, the leader of the second group, and Luo Qing, the leader of the first group, but this young man with a sense of decline and expansion was a very dull person, and he had not spoken since he appeared.
At this time, Lin Shan asked him by name, he could no longer continue to maintain the appearance of wood, but he did not make a sound after moving his lips. It seems like there's a lot to say, and at the same time I don't know where to start.
Liu Sheng, who was standing aside and watching this scene in his eyes, couldn't help but explain for him: "Brother Lin, I wanted to come, and the big green worm came with me if I didn't feel at ease." As soon as she finished saying this, a trace of embarrassment flashed on Luo Qing's face.
Lin Shan, who noticed this, couldn't help but smile and said, "Xiaoliu, your name for Luo Qing is going to be changed." This is no longer the case. You should at least save some face for him in front of his subordinates. β
"Oh." Liu Sheng replied in a deep voice, I don't know if she suddenly thought of something, she suddenly laughed with a "poof". When she smiled, she even laughed with several subordinates who were still waiting on the side.
"Alas. I can't do anything about you, I just bully honest people, and even the team members are broken. I'll heal you when I return." Lin Shan made a joke, then sorted out the feelings, and said to Luo Qing seriously: "Since you are also here." Then the original plan will change a little, and there is no need to go back immediately. You stay overnight in Weijun first, and when the caravan of the Yan family returning from Kyoto arrives, you will form a team with them and leave. β
Luo Qing's face had already recovered a calm expression, but after hearing the words, he became puzzled again, and he was puzzled: "In this way, wouldn't it be a lot of delay?" β
"I just want to find something to delay his work, otherwise I will send him back to his mother's house so soon. I'm afraid that his wife won't be able to look at him! β
Lin Shan's eyes wandered and glanced at the few people standing beside him, and then said in a soothing tone: "I brought one more person with me when I went back." It's also much easier for you to get through the city when you're in the caravan. If he has any small requests along the way, the caravan can also provide them at any time. β
Speaking of this, he suddenly frowned, as if he had thought of something difficult, and his tone was a little lower: "The Yan family also has business dealings with the West Wind Manor, I will say hello to the Yan family's caravan out of Beijing, and after returning to the county seat, they will divide a team from the brigade and send a batch of goods to the manor, and by the way, they will also take him back." In this way, you can also avoid having more contact with the people of Zephyr Manor, after all, whether the people in the manor are all in charge of one person, I don't know yet. One qiΔ and that's it! β
After saying that, he raised his hand and made a movement, and the few people standing around him all nodded and dispersed, leaving only Liu Sheng and Luo Qing still standing in place.
In fact, after Luo Qing received the instruction passed on by Liu Sheng for Lin Shan two days ago, he had been wondering in his heart: since Lin Shan did not agree to take Ma An when he returned to Kyoto, why didn't he leave him that night when he was in Xingjia Village, and only did he do it when he was about to arrive in Kyoto, when there were only a dozen miles left from Weicheng?
It was only then that he finally got his answer. Although Lin Shan's explanation was not exhaustive, after knowing Ma An's special relationship with the hostess in Zephyr Manor, Luo Qing easily chose to be convinced of this answer.
And from this, he thought of another question, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, which had always been unsentimental.
And this rare smile was immediately caught in Yanagi's eyes, and she couldn't help but ask directly with great curiosity: "What are you happy about?" β
Luo Qing said: "I believe that Brother Lin will really only stay for a short period of time when he returns to Beijing, because the time that Brother Ma and his wife can watch him is also limited. β
Liu Sheng couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Can this kind of thing be compared? β
In the midst of these words, two of the people who had just left came back, each with a horse.
Lin Shan frowned slightly after seeing the two horses for the first time, looked at Liu Sheng and said, "Didn't you let you bring two horses that were almost there?" β
"Huh?" Yanagi was surprised and said, "This is already the worst horse in the group." β
Lin Shan shook his head and said: "You haven't had any long-distance missions in these years, how can there be bad horses in the group, all of them are already fat and healthy, how could you not think of this?" Since there are no inferior horses in the group, you can go outside and buy them, and the horse dealers have the least worries, but this kind of horse is this kind of horse. β
As soon as he said this, Liu Sheng suddenly didn't know what to say. Liu Sheng only felt that what he said sounded very reasonable at first, and after thinking about it again, he felt that it was completely unreasonable. After holding it for a while, she finally had to sigh: "Only you will complain because the horse is not bad enough!" β
At this time, Luo Qing took the initiative to open his mouth and start a round: "Xiaoliu, Brother Lin may need to hide his identity for a period of time when he enters Beijing this time, and the habits of the horses in the group are really too easy for people with intentions to see the clues." β
After he said this, he turned to look at Lin Shan and said, "Brother Lin, Xiaoliu is also out of good intentions. I overlooked something. However, these two horses have not been well raised in the group, and it is estimated that they are guilty of senile disease, which can be regarded as the last product of the horse. β
Lin Shan nodded, didn't say anything more, and raised his hand to take the reins handed by a team member.
Luo Qing saw that Lin Shan was about to get on the horse, and finally couldn't help but ask again, "Brother Lin." Books in the car. Do you really want it all? β
"The carriage and all the books in the carriage were burned, and only the horses were left for Ma'an. This is the second time I have replied to you on this question, so don't hesitate any longer. After Lin Shan finished speaking, he jumped on the back of a horse, and he held the reins in one hand. After a little trial of the strange mount's temperament, after spinning around in place, he asked Yanagi again, "Where has that mouse gone?" β
After hearing this question, Yanagi heard. His face became calm, and after a little thought, he replied seriously: "After our observation all the way, although he is in a hurry. However, it seems unaware that it has been discovered. At the entrance to the city of Yangjun and Yedu, due to our advance arrangement, his itinerary was delayed. However, since leaving the capital, he no longer takes the official road, but sleeps in the wilderness, day and night, and it is estimated that he has already traveled in front of us at this time. It's almost to Kyoto Castle. The guards on the road became more and more dense, and we did not dare to follow too closely. β
"Okay." Lin Shan smiled slightly. Wen Yan said: "Remember, Kyoto is your thunder pool, but I have my own arrangements there. Let's separate here! β
Liu Sheng and Luo Qing didn't say anything more, and bowed goodbye to Lin Shan.
Lin Shan took the reins in his right hand and stretched out his left hand, and took the reins of another horse handed by a member of the team next to him, and just rode a horse out of the pine forest and returned to the official road.
Lin Shan returned to the carriage and shouted to Mo Ye to get out of the carriage. Mo Ye didn't see Ma An after opening the curtain of the carriage door, and she was slightly surprised, but soon she could roughly understand. Moving to the door of the car, she whispered, "Uncle Ma is also gone?" β
Lin Shan nodded, and Wen Yan said, "Help me get the long box out of the car." β
Mo Ye did as she said, but when she picked up the box, she realized that it was extremely heavy, but she had just moved the box to the door of the car, and Lin Shan also noticed the problem, and had already jumped off the horse and walked to the door of the car.
He set up the long box, smiled and said to Mo Ye: "There are too many things in this box, I should come by myself, you get on the horse first." β
As he spoke, he reached out and groped around the box, as if looking for something. However, after looking for a while, he lowered his hand and hesitated. At last he seemed to give up on an idea, and then he got into the carriage, untied a bundle of books, took the rope, tied the wooden box out of a rope, lifted it, and carried it diagonally on his back.
When he got out of the carriage and jumped on the horse again, Mo Ye, who was already waiting on horseback, saw him like this, first felt novel, and then asked puzzledly: "Master, we have changed to riding a horse, what can we do with this carriage?" β
Lin Shan's hands were already on the reins, and he turned his head sideways and said to Mo Ye Wenyan: "In the last part of the road, we will change to horseback, and the carriage will be placed here, and someone will come to clean it up later." β
Ma An just left, suddenly, but in fact it was inevitable, so it was not difficult for Mo Ye to imagine that there must have been other people in the pine forest just nowβsimilar to the people who took away the group of forest cedars from the Li family. So now that Lin Shan says this, he naturally has his arrangement.
Just looking at the cart of books giving up when she was about to arrive in Kyoto, she couldn't help but feel a little reluctant in her heart, so when she saw Lin Shan patting the horse and leaving, she couldn't help but shout: "There are so many books, is it just like that?" We're almost there. β
"These books are actually used by me to press the car board, which is comfortable to sit on, and it is not easy to float when you are in a hurry." Lin Shan looked at Mo Ye and smiled slightly, glanced at the front of the road, and said slowly: "I didn't plan to bring books into Beijing from the beginning of my departure, so how could I leave important books in the car?" Let's go! β
With that, he had driven his horse ahead of him, and did not glance at the carriage behind him.
Mo Ye stretched out his hand and touched the thin booklet placed in his arms, and after pursing his lips, he also clamped the horse's belly, chased the back of the forest and cedar, and rushed to the towering city of Kyoto in front of him.
