Chapter 122: North and South Darts

Migration is an instinct of animals, many times large-scale animal migration is for the survival environment or to reproduce, just like a flock of geese in the sky, flying over in autumn and flying back in spring, which is the simplest and most effective way for them to survive the cold winter.

For the people of the north of Daguang, avoiding the war may not be as simple as a one-time come, how many people fled from Youzhou to the Central Plains more than ten years ago, fantasizing that they would be able to return to their homeland as soon as the short war ended. Then, in just a few months, the grassland of Youzhou has not changed, the sky has not changed, the river has not changed, but the people of Daguang can never go back, because the land that should have belonged to them has become owned by the fierce people.

War itself is devastating, no one dares to stay in the land of war even if they don't petition, and almost no one knows the cruelty of the fierce people, and their way of fighting is to feed war with war, and there are few moments of mercy wherever they go.

Staying away from the battlefield is the best choice for defenseless people, and most of the time, the richer the person, the more they will spare their lives.

But when war comes, some people abandon their families and flee for their lives, while others are able to make a fortune. Since ancient times, there has been no shortage of people who have made a fortune, and most of them are also very jealous. In contrast, the legitimate industry of the dart game is relatively stable, and the business can prosper in the face of national disasters, and it will not be spurned by others.

As long as you don't follow the group of refugees, so as not to summon the refugees' hatred of the rich and be attacked by the group, basically no one will deliberately harass a group of strong dart masters.

The dart head of the "North and South Dart Line" is an experienced old dart master, who has been running on the territory of Yunzhou to Diqing for more than ten years, where there are dangerous mountains and mountains on this road, where there are strong bandits and thieves are almost all in his mind, and he also has an ability or experience that others do not have, that is, to know people.

Generally speaking, not all mountain bandits and strongmen are like ordinary people have the impression that they drink wine and eat meat in a big bowl bare-chested, and when they see someone, they jump out and shout "I am driving this road"! In the eyes of the old dart leader, this kind of robber is usually a fool who has just entered the industry.

Truly sophisticated bandits and roadgoers will have all kinds of unpredictable means to get what they want, such as traps and ambushes, such as poisoning and assassination, such as opening a black shop and waiting for the fish to take the bait themselves. Therefore, it is a must-have ability to distinguish between good and bad guys by virtue of experience.

In the words of the old dart head, "the facial features are upright, gentle and elegant, the appearance is extraordinary, the hands are white and there are no calluses, and you can see at a glance which rich and noble man is a pretty son, good or evil." ”

Of course, the most important thing is the last sentence: "The blue and white pattern on the chest of the boy's clothes is a unique symbol of the Valley of Flowers." ”

Therefore, when the dart team found this young man fainting on the river beach, the old dart head decided to save him and throw him on the donkey cart at the back, and whether he could survive or not depended on his own creation.

A day later, the dart team had just entered the territory of the same state....

"Darthead, that little brother is awake!"

When the old dart head walked quickly to the donkey cart at the back, the "gentle and elegant" pretty boy was gobbling up a piece of naan and nibbling on it.

Yang Yi didn't know how long he had been in the underground waterway, nor how long he had fainted after rolling off the cliff and being washed up on the Pingchuan River beach, he only felt that his stomach was empty. Hungry people eat everything fragrant, this is for sure, the coarse grain naan that Yang Yi scorned on weekdays is eating with relish at this time, and I only feel that how can there be such delicious food in the world.

The old dart head looked at this gobbling young man, sighed, and did not affect him to eat the cake, but took off the wine jug hanging from his waist and handed it over.

Yang Yi's mouth was stuffed with cakes, and he couldn't speak at all, so he could only nod to the old dart head to show his gratitude, then took the wine jug and took two sips.

It is difficult for hungry people to control their desires, but when Yang Yi's stomach was filled with some food, his dizzy head finally cleared up, and he hurriedly restrained himself from being still hungry and no longer ate the remaining half of the naan cake, and he ate too much on an empty stomach, and he was bound to have a stomachache.

"That's enough?" The old dart head smiled, raised his hand and tried Yang Yi to take another sip of wine.

Yang Yi hugged his fists and said, "Thank you for saving your life." ”

"Who are you? Why did it fall into the Pingchuan River? "Even if the old dart head is a good-hearted person, you must ask Yang Yi's origin, which is the basic responsibility of being a dart head.

"Under the surname A, a person from the capital, unfortunately fell into the Pingchuan River because of a strong man." Yang Yi replied half-truthfully.

"Are you the doorman of the Valley of Flowers?"

Yang Yi looked at the blue flower on his chest, and saw that there was no malice in the old dart's eyes, so he nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

The dart head did not speak, but hugged his fist and gave another salute, which shows that Fanhua Valley is worthy of being famous and decent in the hearts of the warriors in the rivers and lakes.

Yang Yi hurriedly said: "This big brother, dare to ask if there is any news from the Valley of Flowers?" How far is this place from the Valley of Flowers? ”

Dart Head shook his head, puzzled: "I haven't heard of anything unusual about Blossom Valley, it takes three days to travel from Blossom Valley by land, and it is much faster to take the Pingchuan waterway, it is estimated that it can be reached in one day and one night." ”

"I have to go back to the Valley of Flowers." Yang Yi couldn't help but worry.

The old dart head said: "Don't be anxious, you are now weak and not suitable for traveling, it is better to travel with us for more than half a day, there will be a ferry, and then Gongzi can return by boat much faster." ”

In addition to the mules and horses pulling the goods, there are only donkeys in this dart team, and now Yang Yi's state is not suitable for a long journey at all, so he has no choice but to agree with the old dart leader's opinion.

The old dart head is very good, not only cares about Yang Yi very much, but also reminds the young dart masters to pay attention to various matters. Most of the people in the dart team are also from Jingzhao Mansion, because of the war in the north, countless people have retreated to the south, and the business of the dart team is naturally hot.

The strength of this dart team called "North and South Dart Line" is not small or large, and the old dart head took over the work of a big merchant in Yunzhou under the thousands of choices, and escorted some of the merchants' porcelain goods back to the imperial capital, which was relatively smooth along the way. Now that the dart team has entered the territory of Tongzhou Mansion, there is no threat from the fierce Di people, as long as they pass through Tongzhou for two more days, they can enter Jingzhao Mansion, and they are basically safe.

The team of about 50 people travels very slowly, in addition to pulling a large amount of goods, they must always be vigilant to the surrounding environment, especially when the dart team is traveling in dense mountains and forests, they will be extra cautious.
