The slanting light of the afternoon seems to be scattered on the earth at random, and a layer of golden light floats on the surface of the wild grass with a trace of withered yellow at the tip, looking at the low place in the distance, it is like a piece of wheat field in the autumn harvest season, the only difference is that the piece of "wheat field" will not sway with the wind, but stick to its posture in the cold wind, and never bow its head.

On a path sandwiched by the grass on both sides, a caravan with the name "Zhu's" is slowly moving forward. The number of caravans was not large, and the carriages responsible for hauling goods were only a little more than ten, and there was a carriage that could be ridden in the middle, and there were only fifty or sixty people including the horsemen who drove the carriages and the bodyguards who were responsible for the security of the caravan.

At present, when the New Year is approaching, many traders will take the opportunity to sell a large number of goods and transport them to some areas where there is a shortage of goods to make a fortune, but this caravan with the name "Zhu's" does not look like an ordinary caravan.

Judging from the goods escorted alone, only a dozen or so truckloads of goods seem to be very small, and the scale can only be said to be a little larger than that of ordinary small merchants and hawkers. The carriages that consigned the goods, the horses that looked extremely strong were not ordinary inferior horses, but when you looked at the goods, they didn't seem to be anything of value at all. Underneath were very poorly packaged wooden boxes, and on top were bags of shabby-looking sacks, which did not contain any treasures at all.

Even more extravagant in the caravan were the horses that were ridden, and if you looked closely, the horses on them alone were enough to divide all the people present in charge of escorting each person into two horses. And those horses don't look like ordinary mounts at all, with strong and solid limbs, round, full and shiny eyes, smooth and well-angled backs, and four horseshoes that look tough and powerful, and the horseshoe makes a strong "yes" sound every time it steps on the ground with a steady step.

The curtain of the carriage carport in the middle was suddenly lifted, and an extremely obscene face first poked out, and the originally slightly young face now had a smile that was extremely inconsistent with his age, and his expression was very complicated, making people wonder what the other party was thinking.

But the most surprising thing was the other party's clothes, in this kind of temperature of less than ten degrees without sun exposure, the lewd man was only wearing a coat, and the clothes on the front chest were not tidied up, and the chest without any muscles was so naked. Immediately, what was even more surprising was that a pair of slender and seemingly weak and boneless pairs climbed up and roamed around on the piece of fat, which made the lewd face of the owner smile even more.

"Hey, hey. Lao Yuan! It's not too early, remember to arrange for the brothers to find a place to settle down! Zhuge Shiwu, who was smiling obscenely, shouted at Yuan Biao, who was riding a horse in front of him and laughing with Chen Wansan.

"Uhhhhh Yuan Biao's body froze suddenly, and he glanced at Chen Wansan, who also had a helpless expression on his face at the same moment, turned his head and nodded, and responded in a very respectful tone: "Got it, sir." You can rest assured, brothers know what to do! ”

"Good! I just want to remind you, the recent journey is not very stable, and it is almost to Mianshui County, brothers, it is better to be careful! Zhuge Shiwei explained with a smile, and then let go of the curtain, and grabbed the pair of slender hands on his chest, and then, there was a burst of "hehe" and "giggle" laughter from men and women in the carriage.

In this regard, Yuan Biao and Chen Wansan just shook their heads helplessly, and then continued the conversation just now, even the brothers of Feng Kill and Red Feng near the carriage have long been accustomed to this, just smiled faintly, and then put their minds on the road again.

Originally, Zhuge Shiwei's behavior was opposed by Yuan Biao and Chen Wansan, but the other party took out a letter of appointment without a seal, and pointed at the two of them with a serious look and said: "You two can see clearly, this is the appointment letter from the Hou Ye to the deity, from the military division general of the third grade!" According to the law of the army, the deity has every right to bring his female dependents with him! ”

said that it was a female dependent, but in fact, it was just a song and dance advocate who was redeemed by Zhuge Shiwu from Qinglou in a certain county, but Zhuge Shiwu insisted that it was his concubine, which also made Yuan Biao and Chen Wansan very speechless, thinking of each other's consistent behavior, and after reminding them to oppose it two or three times, they had to let each other's "nonsense".

"Lao Yuan, calculate the time, it is estimated that around noon tomorrow, we will be able to arrive in Mianshui County!" After chatting for a while, Chen Wansan introduced the topic to business.

"Hmm." Yuan Biao groaned, thought for a moment, nodded and smiled: "Yes!" If you speed up your trip today, you can have a good meal in the hotel in Mianshui County before the evening! ”

"Hey! It's not bad for this night! Chen Wansan shook his head a little helplessly, glanced sideways at the carriage behind him, and smiled.

"Yes! It's not a bad night! Yuan Biao also sighed and agreed, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This half-month journey has been more than a month!" It's been half a month, and it's really not bad for this night! ”

Along the way, not only Yuan Biao and Chen Wansan, all the people accompanying them were a little speechless, every morning when the sun was shining, they had to set off to hurry, and before Shen Shi Zhuge Shiwu would remind or even urge to find a place to camp, generally at the end of the unitary time, everyone had finished eating and drinking and was about to fall asleep.

Along the way, except for the two times in the middle of the city to replenish supplies, everyone is bored except for boredom, whether it is a maple kill or a red maple person, they have never been in such a hurry, in their opinion, this section of the road in normal times, at most half a month can be completed, and even in the case of rushing overnight, it can be completed in more than ten days.

"You say, what is the purpose of this gentleman?" As soon as he thought of this, Yuan Biao couldn't help but ask in a low voice, although the answer he got was the same every time, he still couldn't hold back his curiosity.

"Who knows?! I don't know anyway! Chen Wansan still lived up to Yuan Biao's expectations, and said the same answer as before, then shook his head and added: "Maybe if Brother Feng is here, he can still understand!" ”

"Huh..." Yuan Biao smiled lightly, glanced sideways at the carriage behind him cautiously, leaned in the direction of Chen Wansan, and added in a low voice: "If Brother Feng is here, do you say that Mr. He dares to sell Guanzi like this?" ”

"Haha." Both of them laughed on their backs at the same time.

"Brother Biao, Brother Chen! There is a brother warning ahead! Suddenly, Zhao Chenyi, who was at the front of the team, turned around and rushed back to the two of them, and reminded everyone present with a low cry.
