Chapter 4 Opportunities
Just when Yuan Yun was hesitating whether to take the main road, he suddenly found that after a team of people had just passed, a new team of people had arrived, and this time there were as many as forty or fifty people. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The leader of the team immediately stopped when he arrived here, looked around, and almost saw Yuan Yun hiding in the dense forest.
"All the people are scattered, in groups of two, first look for the nearby woods, and we must not let that Yuan boy escape, the lord was seriously injured by him, how can such a despicable villain let him escape? Give me a serious search! ”
After the leader finished drinking, the forty or fifty people immediately dispersed.
Yuan Yun hurriedly retreated towards the back mountain, and he didn't care about any beasts at the moment, and now the beasts were much more charitable than these people.
Yuan Yun walked in the mountains for a whole day, occasionally encountering searchers, but the map in his mind recorded the terrain in great detail, so he tried to choose the road that was difficult for horses to escape, so it was finally much safer.
As for the beast or something, it seems to be very face-saving, and if there is no time to run out and scare people, this kind of summer day is like a miracle.
In the evening, Yuan Yun began to have a headache, such a dense forest will definitely become a different appearance after dark, the ancient dense forest must also be a dead land, even excellent hunters rarely enter the mountain in the middle of the night.
Before it was all dark, Yuan Yun finally found a cave, which immediately made him ecstatic, as long as this cave was deep enough, he could make a fire, and with the existence of a fire, beasts or something would not have to worry so much.
Yuan Yun climbed up to the entrance of the cave halfway up the mountainside tiredly, and found that it was really deep, and he was not afraid of the fire leaking out when he lit a fire in it.
Touching his feet, Yuan Yun did not choose to rest, but immediately began to collect dead branches and leaves, and then took out the fire fold, now the first priority is to light a fire in the cave, and then eat some dry food to maintain physical strength, this night should be able to spend peacefully.
After it was all dark, Yuan Yun couldn't sleep, and for anyone who fled, it would almost become insomnia, even if it was very tired.
In desperation, Yuan Yun decided to pick up a piece of torch, and then went to the depths of the cave to take a look, and turned around only to find that this cave actually had two exits, the hole on the other side was opened at the foot of the mountain, and the exit was on the edge of a river.
"This is a good hiding place, you can resist the enemy in the front, you can escape in the back, blessed land, even if Liu Bei Lao'er comes, who is afraid of whom?" Yuan Yun finished laughing, and made the fire more vigorous.
At this time, four figures suddenly appeared at the entrance of the cave, and Yuan Yun was startled and found that the other party was the enemy who was searching for him.
Yuan Yun suddenly shouted that he was unlucky, he shouldn't have spoken wildly, he didn't want retribution to come so quickly.
The four enemies were overjoyed when they saw Yuan Yun, this was a credit from God, everyone knew that Yuan Yun didn't know any martial arts at all, let alone resist.
So the four of them immediately blocked the entrance to the cave, and then said with a smile: "Yuan Hou don't come to be harmed, meet us today, it is also the credit of Yuan Hou, you are honest, we will not let you suffer, how about it?" ”
Yuan Yun originally wanted to escape from another cave, but his footsteps were definitely not as fast as the four people in front of him, and even if he escaped, he couldn't escape far, and at this moment, he couldn't help but say that it was really a death for me.
After blaming God in his heart, Yuan Yun found that a huge shadow rose behind the four pursuers, and in an instant, he heard a terrible scream, and one of the four pursuers turned into two pieces, and his intestines and internal organs were spilled on the ground.
Bear! Giant Bear!
Yuan Yun exclaimed in his heart, and the remaining three pursuers also shouted, and immediately pulled out the long sword at his waist, and the blade reflected the fire in the cave, which immediately made the giant bear even more tyrannical.
In a short time, one more person was killed by a claw, and the other two were just trying to escape from the entrance of the cave, but they were pounced on by another giant bear that came to them, and in an instant, their shouting also stopped.
Yuan Yun didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and threw all the dry wood into the fire, hoping that the fire could stop the two giant bears, and he himself fled towards the other hole, and soon slipped through the exit at the foot of the mountain to the river, and then his heart was a little more stable.
"Haha, what can Liu Bei do to me, it's not that Lao Tzu has turned the crisis into safety!"
When Yuan Yun had just finished speaking, he found that a large number of torches had been lit in the woods on the edge of the river, and these people were quickly moving towards his position.
Yuan Yun was startled, and found that he was still holding a torch in his hand, and these pursuers must have been attracted by the light of this torch.
With a bang, Yuan Yun inserted the torch into the river, and then immediately ran towards the downstream position, but the opponent's movement speed was not slow, and it didn't take long to catch up, because the other party actually brought a hunting dog.
Unlucky, Lao Tzu will have to keep a low profile in the future, every time he speaks wildly, God will inevitably let Lao Tzu end miserably, damn!
Just when Yuan Yun was cursing the thief in his heart, he suddenly heard the barking of those hunting dogs louder, and he seemed very flustered.
If you listen closely, you can even hear the howls of the two giant bears, and the sound is extremely terrifying.
Don't guess, the two giant bears probably also ran out of the hole at the foot of the mountain, and happened to meet the enemy chasing them, which is interesting, and the final result is not known whether the man wins, or the bear wins? Anyway, I can continue to escape.
This night, Yuan Yun still did not rest, in order to avoid all kinds of wild beasts in the forest, plus to guard against those hunting dogs chasing soldiers, Yuan Yun simply threw a large piece of wooden stake into the river, and then floated downstream along the water, which was not only fast, but also greatly saved leg strength.
Until dawn came again, Yuan Yun clearly knew that he had left Xuzhou City for more than a hundred miles, but since he had encountered Liu Bei's men, Liu Bei would definitely be able to clarify his escape route, and the team that searched for him would definitely rush to this side in a large area.
At this moment, if you appear alone in the wilderness again, it must be the key goal, and it is better to blend in with the crowd than this, so that it will be safer.
For example, when you mix into a seaside village and town that appears in front of you at this moment, it seems to be a salt farm, so there are a lot of merchants who come and go, and it is also a mix of mermaids, which is the most suitable for you to hide.
Yuan Yun didn't think about it, he immediately went ashore from the river, and then he was ready to dress up as a beggar, and swaggered in, after all, he was scurrying in the forest last night, and he was wet by the river, at this moment he was already a sloppy appearance with a gray face, no matter how you look at it, he is a beggar.
Sure enough, no one in the village or town had any suspicions about Yuan Yun, and even a few beggars appeared with him, and they would glare at Yuan Yun from time to time and warn him not to rob business.
Unlucky, it's really a tiger falling in Pingyang and being bullied by beggars.
Originally, it was a market for some merchants to buy salt, but it was previously controlled by Cao Cao, so the sale of salt was strictly controlled, and ordinary merchants basically had little chance.
This will Liu Bei reoccupy Xuzhou, and these industries will immediately open a big opening, but it will make this kind of village and town popular, and the courage of the businessmen is also the greatest, but regardless of whether the war is chaotic or not, making money is their primary consideration.
At this moment, this small village and town is full of people who come to buy and sell illicit salt, from the big wealthy to the small traders.
It was also because of the existence of these people that it immediately became a large black market, and the people of the nearby villages also turned this lively place into a market place, and for a time the villages and towns immediately expanded several times, and there were even some prostitutes who took private work.
Yuan Yun shuttled through the crowd, hunched over, very cautiously advancing, all he needed to do was to blend into a caravan, or follow some homeless people far into the mountains, only then could he escape.
Not long after, Yuan Yun suddenly heard a person chatting with someone on the side, and the content of the chat seemed to be complaining about the stupidity of his subordinates, and as a result, he miscalculated the accounts, causing him to lose a lot of money.
When Yuan Yun heard this, his heart moved, and he continued to lean towards the two chattering people.
One of the middle-aged men comforted: "Uncle Wang, you don't have to worry too much, this loss is just a little less, and your master won't ask." ”
Uncle Wang sighed and said: "The old man in the family died early, and the young lady has been taking care of him all these years, if we old people didn't support the family business, we would have become homeless people long ago, so the old man feels sorry for the young lady." ”
Speaking of this, Uncle Wang's face was a little embarrassed, and then he said apologetically: "Shopkeeper Zhen, don't take it to heart, your family is similar, it's all young lady supporting the family business, alas." ”
The shopkeeper Zhen smiled and said: "Look at what you said, I don't have to hide that little thing in my family, the old lord went early, and the little lord is a person who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and it has really been bitter for Miss over the years, or our two young ladies will not be able to become best friends, and your young lady will not introduce us to sell illicit salt, and also borrow a sea boat to let us go by sea, I want to thank your family." ”
Uncle Wang nodded, and said a few more polite words, but still sighed: "This time when I go back, the old man has to find a good account book, otherwise every time he makes a mistake, the old man will lose a sum of money, although the master doesn't say it, but the old man can't go away." ”
When Yuan Yun heard this, he already had a plan in his heart, so he deliberately pretended to be very timid and walked over, and then bowed his hand in a decent manner.
When the two shopkeepers saw a little beggar come to their side, they didn't like it much, but they just threw two five-baht coins and prepared to send them away.
Who knew that Yuan Yun carefully picked up the copper plate from the ground, and respectfully sent it back to the table of the two shopkeepers.
Uncle Wang was stunned and said unhappily: "But I think it's too little, so you are not rare, and you want to humiliate us?" ”
Yuan Yun saluted again, and then replied: "The kid just listened to the two gentlemen and knew that you need to settle accounts, so the kid dared to recommend himself." ”
Shopkeeper Zhen naturally sighed when he saw Yuan Yun's age, and he didn't speak.
Uncle Wang was a little angry, he was mistaken by a bastard just now, and he lost a sum of money, which will be another self-recommendation that has not dried up, or a beggar, if he really agrees, he doesn't know how much he will lose, so he immediately waved his hand and said: "Boy, come back when you have hair on your mouth, and now don't bother the old man." ”
Yuan Yun was not discouraged, and continued to talk nonsense: "The three generations of my family are all shopkeepers who settle accounts, but they were forced by the war, so they were reduced to begging for a living. ”
Uncle Wang still didn't believe it, and he was even more impatient, and he wanted to scold and drive people away, but was stopped by the shopkeeper Zhen.
I only heard the shopkeeper Zhen say with a smile: "Boy, then I will take your test, are you willing to accept it?" ”
Yuan Yun nodded and accepted, he just wanted to mix with these two people's sea ships now, and then fly away, as for the kind of thing of settling accounts, if he said that he was the second in the Eastern Han Dynasty, no one would dare to say that he was the first.
