Chapter 22: Into the City

"Hey...... You wait for me!"

Seeing this, Xizhu quickly turned around and walked towards Xu Wen, and when he came to Xu Wen's side again, he saw that the guy was frowning at the moment.

The two of them are originally from Qi County, Xizhu is a prisoner in the Qi County prison, and what kind of secret Xu Wen hides in his body Although Xizhu is not very clear, he is afraid that he will not be able to withstand interrogation when he sees this guy's reaction

"Otherwise, let's go back, I'll take you back to Dazhu Village first, I don't think the Xu family's group of guys will be able to find us there." ”

Xizhu took the opportunity to encourage again, in fact, he was forced to come to the border city, the key is that he can't find a way back, he originally wanted to come here to make another plan, but now he can't even enter the city gate, if he wants to forcibly pass through the pass, he must take a big risk.

"If you want to go back, you go back, I won't go back, I must go into the city this time!"

Listening to Xizhu's words, Xu Wen suddenly raised his head and glared at Xizhu, with a resolute look on his face.

"Cut, I'm good for you, look at your appearance, if you are caught by those guys, hiss~"

Xizhu pretended to make a gesture, and Xu Wen's face changed slightly again when he saw this.

While the two were hesitating, they suddenly saw a large group of people and horses slowly approaching in the distance, and several carriages were clustered in the crowd, and the cart was full of boxes, and I didn't know what it contained.

The leaders were all riding horses, dressed as typical Los Angeles merchants.

"I think I have a solution!"

Seeing this scene, Xizhu didn't talk to Xu Wen anymore, but suddenly grabbed Xu Wen's hand and ran towards the caravan.

"What are you doing?"

Xu Wen, who was thinking about how to enter the city, was taken aback by Xizhu's sudden reaction, and the other party's sudden grabbing of his hand also caught him unexpectedly, and he couldn't break free for a while.

"What are you shouting, look at how my Xizhu Gongzi takes you into the city!"

Xizhu said without looking back, Xu Wen suddenly showed a puzzled look on his face, but when he heard the words "enter the city", the whole person calmed down again and ran over without saying more.

It's just that the hand that was held by Xizhu suddenly didn't break free, and before he knew it, a flush appeared on this guy's face again, which was a little abnormal for a young teenager.

Besides, while walking on the side of the stream, he simply threw the crutch in his hand on the side of the road, and the whole person stood up straight and swept away the previous embarrassment.

Seeing that the caravan was near, he found that the group of fellows all seemed to be full of energy, but there was no trace of fatigue.

With the arrival of this caravan of about thirty or forty people, led by a few guys on horses at the front of the caravan, they actually went directly to the city gate, and the pedestrians they encountered on the way avoided one after another, and it was not long before they came to the city gate and prepared to enter the border city.

"Wait a minute!"

But at this moment, the soldiers guarding the city had also noticed this group of guys, and saw a guy who looked like a soldier quickly intercepted it with his subordinates.

When the convoy was called to stop, the expressions of the people who took the lead on horseback froze, and they all focused their eyes on the figure at the front, who was also the leader of the entire caravan.

Looking closely, that guy is a man in his forties, who looks like a sword eyebrow, a strong body, and a bit more extraordinary.

I saw that the man who led the team also grabbed the reins when he heard the sound, but he didn't look back, just nodded slightly, but this action was quickly understood by the people behind him, and the entire merchant stopped completely in place at this time.

"Who are you?"

The master chief came to the front of the caravan with the city guard sergeant, with a fierce face and a look of military might, but when he saw the other guy with a burden behind the caravan leader man, he quickly turned off his horse and took out a folded cloth from his chest, and stepped forward and handed it to the master officer.

The non-commissioned officer was suspicious, and all the soldiers behind him also looked solemn and did not let down their guard.

But when he took the cloth handed over by the other party and unfolded it, he couldn't help frowning when he saw the contents clearly, and then looked up again, suddenly raised his hand and shouted: "Release!"

After doing all this, the master chief handed Bwen back to the man with the burden, and then looked up at the leading man, but saw that the other party did not pay attention to him, and he couldn't help frowning again, but in the end, he still took the lead and retreated to the side, it seems that the other party must also be a person with status.

The caravan moved slowly again, and it was all because of Buwen, so they were allowed to enter the city, and even the goods of these large carts were not checked.

But when the caravan was about to enter the city completely, the master chief who was standing aside with a displeased expression suddenly frowned.

"Stop!"

With a loud roar, all the soldiers behind him surrounded him again, and the caravan that was about to enter the city stopped all of a sudden, only to see everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and even the few people in front of him also looked slightly condensed, not knowing what was going on.

Or if you look closely, there is still a slight nervousness in the depths of their eyes, and even the leader of the team, who has always been unfazed, frowned.

"You!

When the big guys looked back, and before everyone could figure out what was going on, the master chief suddenly raised his hand and pointed at the two strange guys at the back of the caravan.

These two guys didn't know when they mixed into the caravan, but because they weren't dressed, they were a little different from the people around them, and they felt a little more down.

To be precise, those two are more like two downcast outcasts.

Of course, these two guys are none other than Xizhu and Xu Wen, who had a headache before to enter the city, and the two of them walked at the back of the caravan, and the other people in the caravan had not even noticed how they got involved.

"It's over,!"

Xizhu's heart was surging, his face became nervous, and the non-commissioned officer suddenly stopped, and pointed at him, focusing everyone's attention on him at once, so much so that he even ignored the existence of Xu Wen on the side.

Many people saw this unfamiliar face, and their faces showed puzzled looks.

"I'll call you out!"

The non-commissioned officer saw that Xizhu had not reacted, and a trace of anger appeared on his face, and the soldiers on the left and right were about to step forward to take people.

Xizhu's heart was pounding at the moment, thinking that he had finally escaped from Qi County, and now he was going to fall into the hands of this group of guys in this city, the key was that it seemed that all this was sent to the door by himself, and he was even more unwilling to think of this.

"Dead is dead!"

Xizhu was no longer at a stalemate, but just as he was about to raise his head, there was a sound of horses' hooves in his ears, and it turned out that one of the several leading guys at the front of the entire caravan had already taken the lead in riding a horse to the rear of the caravan.

When he came quickly, it was the moment Xizhu raised his head, and the two looked at each other from the air in an instant, and the man's brows furrowed slightly, and then he quickly became expressionless.

He could tell at a glance that Xizhu was not from the caravan, but he just glanced at Xizhu, and then turned back to block the front of the group of soldiers.

"But what's the matter?" said the man;

"What's going on with these two people?"

The master chief pointed to Xizhu and Xu Wen behind the man again;

"This is our caravan man, and there was some accident on the way," the man said.

"Accident?"

The master chief had a suspicious look on his face, and then turned back to the soldier next to him and whispered, not knowing what he was talking about.

As for the other side, the entire caravan stopped at the gate of the city again, waiting for the final decision, but when the man said that Xizhu and Xu Wen were his own people in the caravan, Xizhu and Xu Wen both looked at each other and were a little surprised, but they didn't expect the other party to say this;

"As is customary, goods entering and leaving the city are inspected"

After a while, the master chief raised his head again and looked at the guy in front of him and said, and when the words fell, all the soldiers defending the city around him surrounded him.

At the same time, the people in the caravan also stood up one after another to block the carriage, and the situation changed in an instant, and for a moment there was a tension.

"What are you doing to stop us?"

The master chief said with a hint of anger on his face, only to see that the man who came to contact him looked up at the front of the caravan and saw that the leader had not turned back, while the other people were always watching everything here.

"Wait a minute!"

Finally, the guy who had been approached suddenly said loudly, and then quickly turned over and dismounted and came to the master chief again.

This time, I saw him whisper something in the non-commissioned officer's ear, and then both of them turned back, and after saying that, the man took out some things and stuffed them into the non-commissioned officer's hand, and then the non-commissioned officer frowned, and then hesitated, and then looked back at the caravan behind him, and finally only said two words;

After the guy in charge of the contact dealt with this incident, he exchanged a few polite words with the non-commissioned officer next to him, then turned around and got on his horse, and looked back at Xizhu and Xu Wen, who had been keeping his head down next to him.

As if he understood what the other party meant, the good hands of several caravans next to Xizhu and Xu Wen quickly surrounded them and sandwiched the two of them in the middle.

The caravan moved slowly, and finally entered the city, but Xizhu also knew that he had caused trouble to others, and this time he was afraid that he would not let himself leave so easily.

To say that the border city, located in the southern Xinjiang, is the country of Luo to rule the southern Xinjiang land, is the real largest city in the southern Xinjiang, as soon as you enter the city, the feeling of a big city suddenly rushes to the face.

When I first heard the voices of people, I could already see those majestic buildings and a road leading to the main street of the city, which was more than several feet wide.

Further inside, there are rows of towers several stories high, with soldiers from the border city in them, and people coming and going on the towers, which is the first line of defense of the southern border city, and they are separated from the entire city.

In this large and small tower, it can accommodate thousands of people.

It is said that relying on the walls of the entire city, it is enough to withstand the attack of tens of thousands of troops, but these towers are built according to the city walls, and you can't see the mystery at a glance.

Passing through the area of the tower's fortifications, you will soon be able to enter the downtown of the border city.

As the caravan slowly moved forward, Xizhu was gradually shocked by everything in front of him, and he finally felt what was called magnificence, what was called a real city, compared to the border city of Qi County, it was just a poor countryside.

The traffic shuttles through the wide street of several zhang, along the way on both sides are all several storey high buildings, row upon row, most of them are the kind with red decorations, and there are many shops, restaurants, inns The door is wide open, people come and go at the door, and the shouting is heard continuously, and countless people wear brocade silk costumes to haunt the left and right.

"This ...... Is it a border city?"

Xizhu whispered, but saw that Xu Wen next to him was also just quietly moving forward with the caravan, but he kept his head down and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Hey!"

At this time, next to Xu Wen, a small cry from Xizhu suddenly came.

"What?"

Xu Wen looked up at Xizhu with some puzzlement.

"That...... Do you know where your relatives are?"

Xizhu said, and then looked carefully at the people around him.

"It's been a long time since I've been to the border city, so I guess it hasn't changed much!"

Xu Wen said, and saw Xizhu make a look at him, although the two of them did not have any tacit understanding, but the meaning of the look was obvious, just when everyone was slowly walking forward, Xizhu suddenly lowered his body and rushed to the side......
