Chapter 1011 - Causing a Catastrophe (Medium)

Xinghua Army, is it not the army where the owner of the iron snowflake knife belongs, Zhao Xing glanced at the child, signaled with his eyes, pulled out the snowflake knife from the ground, and walked towards the top of the slope.

The judge was a literati, and according to the military of the Song Dynasty, the judge in the army was equivalent to the role of a superintendent. But what is a judge leading a team to do here, it can be said that bandits attacked merchants in the past, and attacking court officials was a major crime of rebellion, so Zhao Xing didn't believe the identity of the other party at all.

Looking at the dress of this group of soldiers, they don't look like normal sergeants. The Song Dynasty called itself Huode, and its military uniform was a purple shirt with a fan yang hat on its head—a felt hat with a large brim, similar in shape to today's straw hats. This group of soldiers was wearing the soap robes of the officials, and the top of their heads was only wrapped in a headscarf, which looked nondescript, and Zhao Xing's gaze at them was full of vigilance.

Zhou Tao, who was wearing a soap robe, first looked at Zhao Xing's Xiucai white robe, and when he saw that Zhao Xing was not arrogant or humble when he saluted, he fell on the knife in the other party's hand.

"This is Sun Hua's knife, I recognize, where is that fugitive slave now?" Zhou Tao asked coldly.

Zhao Xing slowly drew the knife out of the sheath, and replied very coldly: "I snatched this knife from the bandits, I don't know who Sun Hua is." ”

After that, he held the knife with both hands and made a gesture of offering the knife, but his hand held the handle of the knife, the blade pointed at Zhou Tao, and asked: "The sky is dark, in the wilderness, how can your Excellency prove that you are the judge of the Xinghua Army?" As far as I know, although banditry is rampant on this road, there are very few attacks on court officials. Who are you? ”

Zhou Tao's face sank, and he was about to scold, when a subordinate gently tugged at his shirt. Zhou Tao looked down the hillside and was sweating.

When Zhao Xing went up the mountain, he once gave the students a look, this group of children are not afraid of heaven and earth, seeing Zhao Xing drawing a knife on the hillside, their hands have been pressed on the bowstring, and the arrow is aimed at the top of the slope. The swayants had been driven by the children to the slopes.

"Ahem", Zhou Tao coughed a few times: "This official is here for Shao Wujun's business, Sun Hua didn't mention it, he took a fancy to his knife, but I didn't expect him to abscond with a knife...... Now that the knife is in your hands, I will not pursue it. If it's too late today, you and I will disperse. ”

Zhao Xing held the knife and was silent, Zhou Tao saw that Zhao Xing was unmoved, and he immediately changed his smiling face: "If you have to be rescued by a strong man, you will send a strong man a car, let your people go to the back of the slope to push a car, you and I will say goodbye, from now on, the south and the north will not recognize each other." ”

Behind the slope? Zhao Xing's eyes rolled, and a cold sweat broke out on his body. This man is still hiding something behind the slope, is it reinforcements, or reserves? He didn't dare to delay, beckoned Cheng Laoer's son Cheng Xun to take a look after running the slope, and after a while, Cheng Laoer pushed a heavy chicken bus over, Zhou Tao seemed to frown, Zhao Xing saw it, and shouted without hesitation: "Farewell", holding the knife, step by step backwards back down the slope.

The businessmen saw that Zhao Xing was in a stalemate with the officials at the top of the slope, and had already fled to the side of the road, but Jiao Touch had not left, he stood next to Zhao Xing's vehicle, whispered to comfort the scared little girl, and waited until Zhao Xing retreated downhill, and a bunch of people quickly left the roadside under the cover of layers.

Walking through a few mountain bays, until the group of people on the top of the slope could not be seen, Zhao Xing only walked a few steps, and walked to the side of Cheng Xuntui's chicken bus, the chicken bus was tied to two large wooden boxes, the boxes were very heavy, with Zhao Xing's strength, he lifted it, still did not move, he withdrew his hand, and hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up, don't stay, Uncle Jiao, if you want to live, follow us." ”

Jiao Yan stretched out his head and asked curiously, "Xiucai, what's in the box?" Why don't you open it and take a look? ”

"Don't ask, if you want to live, don't ask", Zhao Xing sighed and whispered to himself: "Curiosity is heavy, you shouldn't push this car, run away." ”

After walking a few steps, Zhao Xing immediately greeted Jiao Touch: "Uncle, is there a river nearby?" Let's go to the river, let your son run a few steps, go and greet the merchants in front, if you want not to raid your house and exterminate your family, quickly call all the merchants who know your bottom line, and come with us. ”

Seeing Zhao Xing's solemn face, Jiao Zhi didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly beckoned his son to rush forward. What Zhao Xing didn't expect was that his prestige was so high, Jiao Touch's son went for a while, and he hurried to the meeting with a few hawkers, they obeyed Zhao Xing's arrangement without doubt, and under the guidance of Jiao Touch, the whole team got into a small road on the side of the road.

After walking a short distance, there were already the sound of footsteps on the road behind him, mixed with the monotonous sound of horses' hooves. Zhao Xing urged everyone to move quickly, and suddenly lowered his head and saw the ruts on the ground, he patted his head and said with annoyance: "It's broken, the car marks are so deep, as long as you are careful, you can find it...... Uncle, how far is it from the river? ”

"It's not far, you can hear the sound of water after a few steps walk", Jiao Touch shouted as he pointed into the distance.

The night was dark, and Zhao Xing could already feel the fog rising from the riverside, and after a while, they would completely hide in the fog.

But this "moment" is the hardest.

The footsteps behind him paused slightly at the fork in the road, then resounded. Zhao Xingyi waved his hand: "Cheng Xia, you take the child and continue to rush forward, Cheng Shuang, Cheng Xun, and then call someone to go back with me." ”

At the fork in the road, three or five figures were wandering there, Zhao Xing didn't even hide it, he rushed forward with a knife, and several children behind him followed him with bows and arrows. In the dark shadow, they couldn't see where the people at the intersection belonged to, but as soon as they saw Zhao Xing carrying a knife and running towards here viciously, they immediately screamed and ran towards the way they came.

Their way of coming is also the way of Zhao Xing.

After not running a few steps, Zhao Xing stopped catching up and turned over to beckon the children to continue running.

There's no way to chase it. In the dark night, they couldn't even see the arrow shaft clearly, let alone aim and shoot, the group of people saw the opportunity quickly and escaped with their lives, Zhao Xing was busy hurrying, and he had no intention of continuing to chase.

By the time Zhao Xing arrived, Cheng Xia had already figured out a way, he used the rescue rope he carried with him to string the merchants together, a few well-eyed mountain people walked in front, and a few people were left in the team to hold the rope, and others were holding the rope, which made the team walk slowly, but very orderly.

Perhaps it was the continuous bandits that made the merchants wary, and they accepted Cheng Xia's arrangement without complaint, and under the urging of Zhao Xing, who rushed back later, they kept speeding up.
