Chapter 52, only women and villains are difficult to raise
The news that the Bayang Lu caravan was going to go down to Fuling to sell cloth spread far and wide, and it was a long way to go, and it had to cross the border, so naturally it was indispensable to hire chivalrous men and laborers.
Hundreds of knights and laborers crowded on the street in front of Lu's house, waiting to take over this job, after all, the Lu family has always been generous.
"Thirty laborers, ten knife coins." The fat man of the Lu family squinted, raised three fingers on his left hand, and raised a middle finger on his right hand. He has only nine fingers, missing the index finger of his right hand.
A group of laborers are like wild dogs vying for food and competing for these thirty places, and a full ten knife coins are enough to please a daughter-in-law who is not very good-looking but has diligent hands and feet.
The knights with swords or knives clasped their hands and looked indifferently at this group of Laofu who were like wild dogs grabbing food, they knew in their hearts that the price of chivalry was three times that of Laofu, and at least thirty knife coins were enough to beg for a daughter-in-law.
"Enough, enough." The nine-fingered fat butler effortlessly squeezed out of the crowd and stood on the steps and shouted.
The lauf who grabbed the quota was overjoyed, and the one who didn't grab it complained and left, and the whole ten sword coins were missing in front of him.
"Come with me, watch out for your stinking feet, and don't step on the dirty ground." The nine-fingered fat butler said disgustedly.
Twenty or thirty knights looked at each other, in the past, the Laborers were recruited together, why are they only recruiting Laborers and not knights today?
The fat butler of the Nine Fingers led thirty laborers in, and soon thirty laborers and twenty servants came out carrying cloth and loaded it on the ox cart.
Twenty-three knights were anxious, but because of their bad faces, they asked, thinking that the nine-fingered fat butler had forgotten about this stubble.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way." The nine-fingered fat butler urged the knights to give way.
A group of chivalrous people had to get out of the way, but they all despised this nine-fingered fat butler who was a dog.
The Lu family's convoy had already begun to set off, and a big man and a reckless man stopped the team and asked, "The Lu family is not recruiting knights?"
Gu Yu and Jiang Jue happened to come out, Gu Yu saw the reckless man's reckless behavior, and said with a smile: "The entourage of the Lu family's team has been recruited."
The group of knights only saw thirty laborers and twenty servants of the Lu family, but where else was the convoy?
"Is this a trick on us? Isn't it that the Lu family can't afford to pay those dozens of dollars? The reckless man scoffed.
"It has nothing to do with you whether you can afford to go out or not, the accompanying knight is the son next to me." Gu Yu stepped out of the way, so that everyone could see Jiang Jue's appearance clearly.
"Is it really this young man? Isn't it the concubine that Miss Lu hid in the car? The reckless man saw that it was a young man, where did he believe what Gu Yu said.
Qi Guanzhuang didn't need Jiang Jue's orders to force him with his bare hands, and the reckless man was not a loser and fought back, so the two reckless men fought at the door of Lu's house.
That reckless man also has some strength, and he can be regarded as a character in Bayang Knight, but it's a pity that his opponent is Qi Guanzhuang, who has grown rapidly in the past half a year.
Qi Guanzhuang originally had a good brute strength, and his knife skills were barely in the stream, and his knife skills could almost be ranked among the second grades. In terms of brute force alone, Qi Guanzhuang is a step weaker than this reckless man, but he is not a pure reckless man, so he kicked the reckless man in the waist in less than ten moves.
The reckless knight originally wanted to be vigorous and majestic, but who knew that he encountered a hard stubble, so he had to leave in embarrassment, and I was afraid that he would not dare to appear in Bayang in the short term.
"Officer." Jiang Jueruo shouted meaningfully.
Qi Guanzhuang naturally knew that Gongzi was not very satisfied, after all, this was just a small Bayang City, and the knights were so struggling, so he had to reply in a low voice: "Childe, I must practice the knife diligently."
The reckless man walked away in a gloomy way, which did not mean that the rest of the knights would also retreat, and a knight with a sword arched his hand and said: "Although this brother's strength is acceptable, I am afraid it is a little difficult to protect this convoy alone."
Obviously, this swordsman only had Qi Guanzhuang in his eyes, and he didn't take Jiang Jue and Jing Qijun in his eyes. After all, a young man and a female streamer, it is normal for him to look down on him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thanks to everyone's care, the Lu family only went to Fuling on this trip, and it was inconvenient if there were too many people." Gu Yu said. After all, she is the only daughter of the Lu family, and her words not only do not offend people, but also dispel the minds of many chivalrous.
The knights got out of the way, and the Lu family's convoy began to start. Not long after walking out, Gu Yu heard the swordsman shouting loudly: "A stinky woman with water-based poplars."
"Childe," Gu Yu heard a lot of gossip, but it was the first time she heard it in person, so she said to Jiang Jue, "Trouble Childe to make a move." ”
Jiang Jue said two words: "Give money."
Gu Yuqiao smiled: "Okay, it's all up to the son, is ten enough?"
Jiang Jue got off his horse and carried his sword, Gu Yu remembered Jiang Jue's murder in Jiangcheng, so he hurriedly shouted: "Son, start lightly."
The knight with the swordsman is also one of the best knights in Bayang, and when he saw this young man coming with a sword, he drew his sword to meet him. Bayang, besides the mysterious Lushu peach blossom farmer, who else has he been afraid of?
The sword rose and fell, and the shuriken with the swordsman fell to the ground, holding his right hand and retreating in horror.
This sword is called Ah Liu, also known as the wind, as fast as the wind, and even the knights with swords have no intention of making a sword, and even the onlookers have not seen it clearly.
"Thank you for your mercy," the swordsman breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jiang Jue collect his sword and leave, and asked again, "Are you a peach blossom farmer?" ”
"The peach blossom farmer was killed by me." Jiang Jue left a sentence that shocked a group of knights, it is true that he has rarely heard the news of the peach blossom farmer recently, could it be that he was really killed by this young man?
The Lushu peach blossom farmer naturally lived well, Jiang Wangshu couldn't help him, and even took away the tiger of Bashan.
But the peach blossom farmer should die, Jiang Jue already had a plan, as long as he could meet the peach blossom farmer, he would go without hesitation with his sword, just like Ah Da did at the beginning. The death of the six bandits always needs a reason, just like the peach blossom farmer lifted a sword to kill Ah Da, Ah San, Ah Si, and Ah Liu, the reason is the sword in his hand.
The Lu family's convoy moved forward slowly, Jing Qijun and Gu Yu talked happily at first sight, and Jiang Jue and Qi Guanzhuang hung on the tail of the team and walked slowly.
"Childe, I'm afraid the Lu family's trip is not just for selling cloth." Qi Guanzhuang whispered his guess.
Jiang Jue was still following the caravan for the first time, and he didn't understand the reason, so he asked, "What do you say?"
Qi Guanzhuang said: "There are thousands of miles back and forth from Bayang to Fuling, and it will take a month to go back and forth without heavy rain.
"So you're saying Gu Yu has ulterior motives?" Jiang Jue asked.
"Let's be careful, if we meet a large group of rogue bandits, we don't care about his convoy." Qi Guanzhuang admonished.
Qi Guanzhuang has a wealth of experience, even if he has not been an accompanying knight to protect the caravan, but there are many caravans that have been robbed, and generally there are twenty or thirty knights accompanying this kind of long-distance caravan.
When he crossed Jiangcheng, he met the heroic centurion of the Jiangcheng guard again, and he checked back and forth before he was willing to let go, naturally because of Jiang Jue.
However, he was fair, and he was not too difficult, after all, the Lu family caravan was also an old acquaintance, and on the second day after crossing the river city, a group of grass bandits came to kill, thirty laborers shrunk into a group, and more than twenty servants guarded the ox cart. Jiang Jue, Qi Guanzhuang, and Jing Qijun killed this nest of grass bandits, only injured but not killed, after all, they were also peers, and Jiang Jue was not too difficult.
"Gongzi Xie." Gu Yuqiao said with a smile.
"Add money." Jiang Jue spit out two words, naturally he wanted to add money, and the three people who said that they would each have a hundred knife coins, and they would add a hundred at a time.
"Childe, you know money." Gu Yu said resentfully.
"My son-in-law wants to save money." Qi Guanzhuang thought of the girl in Lanpu, although the son refused to meet, but when he was in the west, he always looked in the direction of Lanpu.
"I don't want to pay the lottery." Gu Yu covered his mouth and smiled.
"There's movement." Jing Qijun shouted.
More than 20 grass bandits came out of the dense forest, and only after walking half a mile two litters of grass bandits, did they drill into the bandits' nest? Jiang Jue felt a headache.
However, taking people's money naturally has to do things for others, and Jiang Jue and the three of them made another move, after all, this is a door-to-door delivery of money.
This nest of grass bandits is very strong, seven or eight people besiege one in an orderly manner, and it is impossible to see that it is actually a nest of well-trained grass bandits.
Jiang Jue was okay, relying on his swordsmanship to kill this nest of grass bandits, Qi Guanzhuang was injured again, but his skin was rough and thick, and often the old injuries were not good and new injuries were still alive.
Qi Guanzhuang injured his arm and was slashed, but it was not a big deal. The caravan set off again, and Jing Qijun kept an eye on it, waited for Jiang Jue and Qi Guanzhuang to catch up, and then whispered, "There is a problem."
"I know." Jiang Jue nodded and said, Qi Guanzhuang woke up a huge convoy, and the three knights who accompanied the team naturally had a problem.
"You see that?" Jing Qijun asked.
"What?" Jiang Jue asked.
"These two litters of bandits are different," Jing Qijun said seriously, "The front nest is just grass bandits, and they have no combat effectiveness at all, so this group of well-trained people looks like soldiers." ”
Although Jing Qijun is not very old, he has made a lot of military achievements, otherwise he can become the palace master of the Huangli Palace just by being Fan Di's adopted daughter?
A female streamer? Or a heroine?
Jiang Jue was fortunate to have seen three heroines, one was Du Ruo, the other was Ji Yanqing, and the rest was Jing Qijun in front of him.
Jing Qijun said his guess, and Qi Guanzhuang also said his guess, and it seems that it is not simple to put it together.
"Regardless of whether Gu Yu went to Fuling to sell cloth on this trip, anyway, we were targeted, maybe it was a mustard seed person." Jing Qijun concluded.
Qi Guanzhuang was a little unconvinced, and said: "Isn't it a dignified Baguo Taibao?"
"Mustard Seed is suspicious and narrow-minded," Jing Qijun glanced at Jiang Jue and said, "He hates you." ”
It seems that this unwarranted disaster has not stopped, and Jiang Jue regrets that he was willing to be a shield in Jiangcheng that day. Not to mention that Mustard has a grudge against herself, even the woman in front of her is also worried about this matter.
"Official, what do you say?" Jiang Jue asked and answered, "Only women and villains are difficult to raise." ”
