Zhu Siwen was very puzzled and puzzled. Because he really couldn't figure out why this gang of bandits would let his group go. And it's polite.

Naturally, the carriage had already been thrown off the cliff and destroyed, so the carriage naturally had no sitting. However, the thieves of this cottage would take out more than ten horses and give them to their group. Could it be that now all the bandits should believe in the Buddha?

Originally, most of the things on the carriage were returned to everyone, except for some silver, and the amount of this silver was really not much...... At least Zhu Siwen knew that his little master still had a lot of silver tickets hidden. And take out a random one, which is enough to eat and drink all the way east.

Although there were all kinds of doubts in his heart, as a retainer of the Duan family, he naturally knew what the master wanted to say and what he didn't want to say. However, Zhu Siwen was very happy at the moment, because it felt good to hold a beauty in his arms, and they were all yellow flower girls in his little master's house, and the fragrance of the virgin emanating from this body was indeed very intoxicating.

The carriage is gone, so naturally you can only ride a horse, and Su'er and the two maids who accompanied her can't ride a horse, so they naturally have to share a horse with someone who can ride. So Zhu Siwen and Jiang Mingchen were lucky to get the opportunity to ride with the United States, and the coolest thing is naturally our Duan Zhong little prince, after all, Su'er, a big beauty, is held in her arms, and ordinary people will blush when they see it.

Duan Zhong has a short song humming without a paragraph, such as popular songs such as "The Sun Shines in the Sky" and "I Love Beijing Tiananmen". So when Su'er was very curious to ask where Beijing was and what Tiananmen Square was, Duan Chong would say very mysteriously: Beijing is where we will settle in the future, and Tiananmen Square will be the gate of our compound. Although Su'er still didn't know what Duan Zhong was talking about, she also understood the charm of it, and suddenly her face was like touching rouge. Red and tender, red and tender......

In this way, they hurried for four or five days unhurriedly, but they were still much faster than the large tributary procession. What's more, it's a shortcut. It's still spring, but at noon, the sun is still scorching. And the further east it goes, the more obvious it becomes, so every noon, Duan Zhong will stop and find a shady place to rest.

Duan Zhong wiped the sweat from his face, reluctantly hugged Su'er off the horse, and told everyone to rest. But he shouted Zhu Siwen to the side for questioning.

"How long will it take to get to the border in Dali. What do I do after that? ”

Zhu Siwen said: "Another day and a half to walk to our largest town in the east of Dali, Shicheng County, we have not stopped in the small towns along the way, so you can have a good rest in Shicheng County, buy some horses and vehicles, and buy some items." Otherwise, out of Shicheng County to the east, it is the territory of Daliang, and it is very troublesome to rely on customs clearance along the way. ”

Duan nodded his head: "Then if you enter the border of Daliang, how many days will it take to make the next stop?" ”

"Shicheng County is a bit desolate all the way to the east of Daliang, and there are no big towns, but there are quite a few small villages, which are enough for us to replenish. To the east is Changsha Mansion, and it takes about eleven or twelve days to get out of Shicheng County. If you get to Nanjing, it is estimated that it will take a month. It can be about ten days faster than the tributary procession. ”

Duan nodded his head, this kind of speed is indeed not slow with three female dependents. So Duan thought about it again, let everyone rest for a while, and after the most vicious day at noon, he set off on the road. After all, Shicheng County is not far away, and it is better to go to the town early to rest on the horse all day. After all, everyone hadn't showered in days.

————————————————————————————————————————————————

Duan Zhong walked on the street a little leisurely, in Shicheng County, naturally no one recognized the little prince of Dali. Su'er and the other two maids settled down in the inn, after all, these girls couldn't resist after running around for days. Looking at Su'er's somewhat pale face, Duan Zhong was also a little guilty.

Zhu Siwen led some guards to buy carriages and food, and the rest of the guards guarded the inn. And our little prince Duan Chong is wandering on the street under the banner of exploring the people's feelings.

Shicheng County is not big, but there are many alleys and forks, so our little prince Duan Chong just walked like this, and walked into the fork in the road, and seemed to be lost. But Duan Zhong was not in a hurry, but walked through these alleys casually, just seemingly casual, but without a little hesitation, but very ...... Decisive.

I don't know which alley I jumped into, Duan Chong's feet stopped in front of a house.

However, Duan Zhong did not choose to knock on the door, but chose to climb over the wall. His feet continued to kick on the wall, and his right hand instantly hit the stone wall, and with a little force, the whole body jumped up, straight over the courtyard wall, and jumped into the courtyard.

This is a typical courtyard of a rich and noble family, and the scenery is particularly chic. However, Duan Zhong was not in the mood to appreciate these, because the swordfish in the sky had already arrived.

Duan Chong's face sank, and he turned over suddenly, dodging the first wave of arrow rain. However, a second wave of attacks came suddenly. This time, countless poisoned darts whistled and shot towards Duan Chong, who had not yet gained a stable foothold. Duan Zhong took a breath of cool air, knowing that if he was stained by these poisonous marks, he would definitely die. So Duan Zhong made an extremely deliberate choice: undress.

Duan Chong's small leather jacket was taken off and thrown into the air. This was an instantaneous thing, and at the same time, the sound of the leather jacket being torn diffused in the air, and countless rags flew here, blocking Duan Chong's vision. Countless darts also shot through the rags towards Duan Chong.

However, at this moment, Duan Zhong already had enough respite. Because Duan Zhong drew his sword.

At this time, Duan Chong's skill in stabbing stones in Chongsheng Temple was revealed, because Duan Chong's sword was extremely accurate, accurate enough to stab every dart that was shot at him.

However, is Duan Chong's sword fast enough? The answer is no. So Duan Zhong chose to pick up all the darts that were shot at his lower body, and his body leaned back at a very strange angle, and he miraculously escaped this wave of attacks. It's like...... Keanu Reeves is the same.

But it didn't end there. Because the third wave of attacks has arrived, and it is also the last wave, the deadliest one. The four masters attacked Duan Zhong who was still half-leaning from four directions, front, back, left and right.

Four swords, four masters who are no less than the retainers of the Duan family.

These four people seem to have treated Duan Zhong as a four, as no one has been able to survive the siege of these four swords so far. Duan Zhong naturally wouldn't be so crazy that he could survive from these four swords.

So Duan Zhong stood up straight, put down his sword, and dropped a sentence: I am the one who talks business with Prince Xiao.

The four swords stopped in unison, just in the four directions of Duan Chong's neck, next to Duan Chong's skin, hanging steadily in the air. No matter which sword stabbed forward, Duan Zhong would inevitably splatter blood on the spot, but these four swords stopped.

Duan Zhong straightened up, did not move, and did not speak. Because Duan Zhong knew that these four swords were used to kill, not to speak. Finally, the door of the main hall of the courtyard slowly opened, and out came an old man with hobbled steps and white hair.

The old man walked very slowly, but very steadily, kicked away the poison mark on the ground, and slowly came to Duan Chong: "Who are you?" ”

"Businessman."

"What kind of business?"

"Ring sellers."

"Where's the ring?"

Duan Zhong cautiously reached into his arms and groped, took out a gold ring, and threw it away.

The old man took the ring, looked at it carefully for a while, and finally nodded, glanced at the four swords, and suddenly, the sword withdrew. Only a few wind sounds were heard, and there was no longer the shadow of the four swords.

The old man nodded: "You come with me." ”

Duan Zhong held the cup and gently blew away the water vapor that came out, and then carefully took a sip of tea. "The mechanism of this courtyard is so powerful, it almost killed me."

The old man frowned: "Didn't the master tell you not to trespass?" ”

Duan nodded his head: "Naturally, the explanation is an explanation, but I didn't take it to heart." I wanted to see how the garden was defended, but I almost lost my life. These four swords are really powerful. ”

The old man shook his head: "What are the requirements of the guests?" ”

Duan Zhong didn't speak, just put his hand into his arms, took out a letter and handed it over.

After reading the letter, the old man pursed his lips: "The master will hand over all these to you?" ”

Duan nodded his head: "What, don't believe it?" ”

The old man shook his head: "I naturally recognize the master's notes and tokens. It's just that I don't understand why you make your master trust you so much. ”

Duan Zhong smiled and took a sip of tea: "You're just a subordinate, so there are some things you just need to do, and you don't need to ask." ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, his eyes looked a little complicated, and he sighed: "It's okay." These secret things have taken countless efforts from the owner, and please don't expose them easily. ”

Duan nodded his head: "I naturally know how to do this secret thing." As he spoke, he took another sip of tea, "I also want the four swords." ”

The old man was stunned: "This master didn't confess." ”

"So do you give it or not?"

The old man hesitated for a while: "This courtyard can't be guarded by no one, at most two will be given to you!" ”

Duan thought about it for a while: "It's okay." At the very least, it can help me guard your master's stall from falling out too quickly. ”

The old man frowned, shook his head again, and finally stood up and walked inward: "I'll go and get a token for you, the roster of the hidden pile, burn it when you see it, don't leave a trace." ”

Duan Zhong took a sip of tea: "This is nature. ”

Looking at the figure of the old man entering the house, Duan Zhong sighed and raised his head to look at the ceiling: "Daliang, I'm still here after all." ”
