Chapter 44: An Unexpected Discovery
At sunrise, on the outskirts of Pei County.
A convoy struggled through a bumpy mountain path into a wooded area on the edge of the official road.
Several old horses were gasping for air, sticking out their long tongues, spewing hot air and looking listless.
There were seven or eight brown-clothed boys sitting in the car, dusty, and each face was a little frightened and uneasy.
The wheels rolled forward, and the convoy was soon deep in the jungle.
At this moment, with a loud bang, a rope stumbled directly on the old horse's neck.
The horses screamed in pain, struggled frantically, and swayed from side to side.
Immediately afterwards, I saw that the convoy was like a rock sugar gourd, colliding one after another, and they were all piled together.
"Not good! Someone carjacked! Run! ”
The boys rolled off the car in pain and ran to the side.
A large group of unidentified men in black rushed out of the woods.
"Haha, I told you a long time ago that this road is impassable, and I rushed to send money to the old men, and I have never seen such a stupid thing!"
"Go back and tell your owner, if you are smart, you will cooperate obediently, if you annoy the grandfathers, believe it or not, let him leave the chickens and dogs in the house!"
"For the sake of Lao Tzu's good mood today, I will spare your lives, leave something, and get out of here!"
The people in black rode tall horses, laughing and cursing one by one.
The little ones nodded resignedly, and fled in panic.
Seeing that the little ones had disappeared, the leader of the men in black urged the horses to come over.
"Check, what is it?"
"Boss, this time it's all wine, more than a hundred jars, I think this Baolai Pavilion is probably suffocated for a while, and I want to go out and try it."
"Try? There is Lao Tzu one day, don't even think about flying over if you call him a mosquito! Pull them all back to Lao Tzu, I see how long they can survive! ”
The leader of the men in black dropped a cruel word, and then ordered his men to pull things back.
The boys trotted all the way, and after a while, they stopped in front of a wood.
After they had uttered a few codes, they saw a commotion beside the woods, and more than thirty black dots peeking out.
"How's it going? Did they pull things back? Chu Yang had camouflage painted on his face and cold eyes, giving people a sense of slaughter.
Early in the morning, he came here with his family, and while he asked the little ones to pretend to deliver the goods, he waited for news here.
"It's all back! Master, are we going to catch up now? ”
At this time, the little guys had long lost their previous panicked appearance, and they all became excited.
These days, they have all made great progress under Fan Xu's training, and they are looking forward to showing their skills.
"Don't worry, just wait."
Chu Yang glanced at the sky, the sun had just come out of his head, and there was a coolness in the air.
He looked at Fan Xu and said:
"Over there in the Lu Mansion, have they all been settled?"
"Don't worry, my lord, I sent the most powerful twenty brothers to protect Miss Lu's side, and Xiao Xiancheng sent some people around Lu Mansion to secretly protect and ensure that nothing goes wrong!"
Chu Yang nodded, and he was secretly relieved in his heart.
They waited patiently until noon, when there was a burst of heat in the woods, and the heads of the family members were covered with layers of fine sweat.
"Lord, how long do we have to wait?" Fan Xu wiped his face that had already been spent, looking like he couldn't hold it back.
In his opinion, he should have rushed out to kill the other party by surprise just now.
With their current combat strength, it shouldn't be difficult to keep those people behind.
The lord is really too careful!
Chu Yang smiled and shook his head.
He knew what Fan Xu thought, but in this way, the casualties on his side must be not small, and that was not the result he wanted.
In this action, if he doesn't make a move, he will have to strike a thunderous blow and cut the grass to the roots.
Just eliminating a few bandits doesn't make much sense in the big picture.
Just when everyone couldn't bear it anymore, suddenly, there was a vibration on the ground, and then people saw a thick smoke roaring into the air like a dragon in the deep mountains and old forests in the distance, and at the same time, there were bursts of fire around it.
"It's done!" Chu Yang excitedly smashed his fist on the clod of soil.
The reason why this gang of bandits is so difficult is because they have a hidden nest here, and no matter how many people they send, they have not been able to find out where the nest is.
And now, the location of the nest has been revealed, and the rest is naturally simple.
Chu Yang no longer hesitated, pulled out his long sword with a "swish", and shouted:
"The thief has appeared, and all the families will rush into battle with me!"
With that, he rode towards the firelight.
Fan Xu led thirty well-trained family members, followed closely behind, and the sound of horses' hooves shouting and killing resounded through the forest, all with bloodthirsty looks on their faces.
Kill!
When they came to the cottage, it was already a sea of fire.
Everywhere you look, some bandits are covered in flames, and they are howling wolves on the ground.
In the past half a month, the family members have been holding back the fire in their stomachs, and now that they see this scene, they don't need to urge at all, and they cut down at the bandits in groups of three or five.
After half a month of special training, the cooperation of the family members has reached the point of extreme tacit understanding, and it often only takes three or five rounds to cut down an enemy to the ground.
In less than a stick of incense, Fan Hao led his family to kill all the bandits in the cottage.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chu Yang gradually relieved after experiencing the initial discomfort.
Born in troubled times, who can live up to it......
He knows that this is just the beginning, and if he wants to be uncontrolled by others and slaughtered by others, the only way to be strong is to be strong!
At the cost of minor injuries to two family members, Chu Yang completely destroyed this bandit nest that had been choking his neck for nearly half a month.
During the cleaning of the battlefield, Fan Xu and his family found a lot of weapons and money in the cottage.
As the richest man in Pei County, Chu Yang naturally didn't take this thing seriously, and let everyone share it on the spot.
Just as they were about to leave, Fan Xu suddenly noticed something and shouted.
"My lord! Look! ”
Looking for Fan Xu's voice, Chu Yang saw that behind a dark wall, there were all kinds of wine-making instruments, as well as wine that had not yet been fully fermented.
What shocked him even more was that in the few rooms behind the dark wall, there were thousands of jars of wine with the exact same packaging as the Baolai Pavilion!
This...... What the hell is going on!
Chu Yang's brows furrowed slightly.
According to the statistics of the Baolai Pavilion, these days, the loss of wine is only two or three hundred jars, why are there thousands here?
And what about the barware in the house?
Could it be that someone is counterfeiting the signboard of Treasure Court and making drinks?
Following this line of thought, Chu Yang seemed to have grasped some key, and his eyes lit up suddenly.
He quickly walked to the front, scooped up a scoop of wine and put it in his mouth, and his face showed a look that was indeed the case.
These drinks are so similar to the ones I made!
Same taste, same production process!
In this world, there is only one person left except for knowing the practice of soju.
Yi Xiaochuan!
But what is the purpose of him doing this?
Obviously, you can produce it yourself, why do you have to use the name of Baolai Pavilion?
