387, Huang Nigang (2)
Holding the whip and looking at these dozen people lying in the shade of the tree, this fire will not hit one place, but it will also be beaten, scolded and scolded, and it is a little helpless!
I simply couldn't see it, so I picked up the knife and walked to the side to check if there was anything unusual around me.
As soon as the man had gone away, the people under the shade of the trees began to talk.
"Second Brother Li, do you think this person is sick! When it's cool in the morning and evening, don't travel, be sure to travel on a hot day! ”
"Although we are doing manual work, we also know that our lives are relatively low, but in this hot weather, we really can't stand it!"
"But this burden is really heavy! I don't know what's inside! ”
"That's right! They beat us with whips at every turn, we are also born to our parents and raised by our parents, why do we suffer like this! ”
"All day long, it was said that there were thieves, there were thieves, we had been gone for so long, we didn't even see a single thief, we were really scared by him."
"We often go to other places, and even ship some valuable items to other places, and we have encountered all kinds of difficulties, but no one is like him."
"Yes, I went out to meet this kind of day before, I traveled when it was cool, and when the weather was hot, I would find a place to cool off, and when this hot day passed, I would rush away, how could he call people like this!"
……
The man who carried the burden complained in the shade of the tree, and while the man was away, he poured out the bitter water in his heart, and everyone was full of complaints and opinions about the man.
The "Second Brother Li" listened to everyone's words, and could only comfort everyone:
"Bear with it first, when you get to Luoyang, I will reward you, and take you to various places in Luoyang, Langda!"
"That place won't let you down!"
Second Brother Li said and gave everyone a "you know" look!
The others nodded in understanding!
"Second Brother Li, if anyone is as considerate of us as you Second Brother Li, we will definitely not complain here!"
"yes!"
"You say that they are all people, why is the gap between people so big!"
"Second Brother Li, I heard that this person has killed people, right?"
"I heard that there was such a thing, I heard that he went to the market to sell, but he encountered a street market of people picking quarrels and provoking trouble, so he stopped selling.
However, the prankster was repeatedly entangled, and on a whim, he killed the person who was picking quarrels and provoking trouble. ”
"I've also heard about this, after he killed someone, he went to the government office to turn himself in, and went to death row, but because that splash often made trouble in the market, the people were angry!
After this splash was killed, they all felt that it was to eliminate harm for the people, so they spent money to do some up and down, and in the end he was exempted from the death penalty. ”
Second Brother Li watched the man walk back in a hurry, and hurriedly reminded:
"Don't say it, I'm back."
The others also closed their mouths very tacitly, lay down in the shade of the trees, and enjoyed the coolness!
When the man came back in a hurry, he took the whip and shouted:
"Get up, if anyone doesn't leave, the whip in my hand is not an ornament!"
When the porter listened to the man's words, one of them jumped up and said excitedly:
"My lord, we don't walk away empty-handed like you,
Before, we were still in a hurry in the morning and evening when it was cool, and now we have to rush on such a hot day, I can't bear to go again.
We don't have you on our shoulders, this is a burden of 100 pounds!
On such a hot day, if you want to go, you can go by yourself, and you can pick your own things, I won't accompany you! ”
"You brute!" The man took the whip and struck him in the face of the man who spoke.
At this time, Second Brother Li held the man's hand,
"Don't fight either! If they continue to fight, they may really leave the burden and stop doing it, do you have to carry it yourself! ”
The man stared at Second Brother Li,
"You also want to disobey my orders!"
Second Brother Li shrugged his shoulders,
"I just want to tell you, all the way down, now everyone is holding their breath, I think you can feel it yourself, you still don't want to offend the public, it's not worth it!
Of course, if you think you can send so many boxes to Luoyang alone, I have nothing to say! If you can't do it, I advise you to be kind! ”
The man holding the whip looked at Second Brother Li, then at the others lying on the ground, and exhaled a long breath.
The man was about to say something when he heard a figure in the woods opposite, and he was sneaking his head out and watching.
"What am I talking about, isn't that a thief?"
Second Brother Li and the other porters also stood up and looked at the other side, there was indeed a person sneaking around in the woods, and for a while, everyone was vigilant.
The man with the whip, threw down the whip in his hand and picked up the knife,"
Be vigilant, I'll take a look! ”
Then he hurried to the man.
"Who are you, what are you doing there sneaky?"
The sneaky man on the other side saw that he was exposed, and he didn't look back, and ran away as soon as he slipped away.
Because he was familiar with the terrain here, it was quickly gone.
The man with the knife chased after him for a while, chased it directly, stood in place, looked around, and then shouted,
"Not good!"
So he hurried back again.
Fortunately, nothing happened when I rushed back to the place where I had rested.
Second Brother Li came over, "How is it, is it really a thief?" ”
The others also watched the man who rushed back.
"I didn't catch up, he was too familiar with the terrain here, I chased it, I thought it was a tiger from the mountain, so I hurried back.
But if you're as sneaky as he is, he's certainly not a good person! ”
"Then let's keep going! We can't afford to lose the things in our burdens! Second Brother Li hurriedly said.
The other burdenbearers also know the importance of the things in the burden, and if these things are snatched or lost, their lives will not be guaranteed.
So he stopped complaining, and waited for the next move of the man with the knife.
The man with the knife looked at the tired appearance of the burdenbearers and waved his hand.
"No, let's all rest in place!"
When Second Brother Li heard such a sentence, he yelled directly.
"What, what are you talking about! If the burden is robbed, can you afford it? You don't want to die, I'm going to die! ”
"Didn't you guys really want to rest just now? Now that I'm giving you a rest, why don't you want it anymore! ”
"You! ……”
"Now that we people are tired, if we are still in a hurry, once the thieves catch up, we will not be able to fight back!
Next, everyone has a good rest, but when they rest, they take turns to keep an eye on each other, and everyone keeps their knives on their bodies.
If any thieves come, they will be nothing more than a rabble,
I believe that with the skills of our people, we will not get rid of them!
When we're almost done, we're on our way! ”
The others thought about it, felt that what they said was right, took out a knife from their burden, held it to their chests, sat down around the burden, and rested.
As for the man who had been holding the whip, he walked around the perimeter and watched the wind and grass around him.
As for Zhang Xuan, the others lay motionless on the tree, watching the every move of everyone below.
