On the slope not far from the lion's mouth, the caravan was stationed here, and according to the plan, they were ready to set off again the next morning, and when Han Yu rode back to the camp, it was already dark, and he happened to encounter several 'fighting' masters with torches and blades, patrolling back and forth along the ramp around the camp.

A group of walkers saw Han Yu riding back and waved their hands to say hello, this young boy is the person that Boss Cui fancies, plus he has a cheerful temperament and a generous shot, these walkers with a rather flamboyant personality are also willing to be close to him, and then look at Zhang Zhimo in Han Yu's arms, and suddenly someone laughed and whistled and coaxed.

Zhang Zhimo, who was leaning on her chest, looked at so many people in front of her, and lowered her head and blushed in shyness for a while, she and Han Yu were only a few friends, if they were so intimate, they would inevitably be criticized, because of the betrayal of the villain before, Zhang Zhimo had heard a lot of vicious gossip, and he knew that people were terrible, but he couldn't leave Han Yu's arms at all.

Han Yu stopped his horse, turned over and dismounted, and hugged his fist to one of the slightly older masters: "Brother Hu, I don't know where Uncle Cui is now?" ”

The slightly older master wanted to tease a few words, and took the beauty into the grove at night, which really made people think about it, but suddenly noticed that Han Yu, who had turned over and dismounted, actually looked urgent, to be precise, it seemed to be a little flustered, and the master surnamed Hu suddenly restrained his previous smiling face, and said with a solemn expression: "Mr. Cui Xing was discussing with a few business leaders before, if Brother Han is in a hurry, go straight to the tent in the camp!" ”

"Thank you, Brother Hu!" Han Yu turned over and got on his horse, pulled the reins and slapped the horse towards the camp.

"This Han boy is really lucky, he actually got Zhang Miaozi's favor," the outermost young master looked at Han Yu's distant back, and said with envy, "If you can have a spring supper and a night, it will be worth dying the next day!" ”

"Just like you kid, you don't need makeup to come out in the middle of the night to be scary, the only thing that suits you is my old sow like a flower!" A master with a beard said with a look of disdain, and when he heard this, the young master who had spoken before was not happy, and he sneered at each other in anger, and the surrounding masters were not idle, and they all teased each other.

"Shut up, I don't want to sleep, let Lao Tzu move on!" The master surnamed Hu scolded angrily, and everyone was in awe and awe of the quite senior master surnamed Hu, looked at each other and said no more, and the line of teachers responsible for tonight's patrol held torches and continued to move along the path.

On the other side, Han Yu, who rode all the way to the tent, turned over and dismounted and was about to enter the account, suddenly thought of something embarrassing and smiled, and hurriedly turned around to pick up Zhang Zhimo, who was sitting on the horse.

"The slave family went back first!" Watching Han Yu fight with the bandits, Zhang Zhimo, who was faintly afraid, bowed and walked towards the camp tent, Han Yu stepped forward to send her all the way back to the tent not far away, although the time was urgent, but it was not in a hurry, the loyal servant Yuan Ke anxiously walked back and forth in front of the tent, and was relieved to see the eldest lady come back. glanced at Han Yu with a little fear, talked with Zhang Zhimo for half a salary, and confirmed that it was okay before returning to his tent.

Sending Zhang Zhimo away, Han Yu immediately returned to the main tent of the meeting, took advantage of the situation to lift the curtain and strode in, the originally slightly fierce discussion came to an abrupt end, Cui Linjiang and a group of business leaders turned their heads to look over, Cui Linjiang seemed to know that Han Yu went to the grove in the evening, and squeezed his eyebrows at him, and suddenly found that a merchant leader over sixty years old looked at him, Cui Linjiang's expression was full of embarrassment and coughed a few times, and then complained: "Brother Han has something important, can't I talk about it later!?" ”

Cui Linjiang was actually reminding Han Yu that it was really inappropriate to break in recklessly like this, and it was better to apologize to these merchants earlier, so as not to increase the gap, Cui Linjiang's meaning Han Yu was naturally clear, but from the previous conversation of the bandits, he must have been eyeing the caravan, and told them to prepare early, and there was no need to take care of these vulgar etiquette, Han Yu hugged his fists and saluted, and told everyone about the conversation between the bandits heard in the woods, and everyone present immediately frowned, and it seemed that they were in big trouble again.

"Brother Han, how many of them are there?!" Cui Linjiang trusted Han Yu very much, and there was no need to lie about this fact, so he asked the most critical question, because of the last wolf attack, Cui Linjiang's men lost many brothers, if there are too many bandits, even if they occupy a favorable terrain, it may be difficult to resist.

"I got the news from the one I killed, they are from Shiyun Village, and the three leaders add up to almost three hundred!" Han Yu immediately responded.

"Brother Han killed a bandit!?" Sitting on the right, a handsome merchant who looks twenty-seven or eighteen, looking up with worry, has always walked for business, the most important thing to offend the town officials and soldiers along the way, up and down a little filial piety can not be less, otherwise the goods on the car will be deducted in various names, and secondly, you can't offend the thieves along the way, if the thieves are worried about it, they will lose a lot of property, and this bandit can not be offended, otherwise they will be angry and desperate, and it will be the caravan that suffers.

Han Yu frowned, this merchant leader actually blamed him for annoying the bandits, it was really a little ridiculous. "To be precise, I killed four, and the first three thieves who came to open the way were all killed by me, Han Yu looked around at everyone and added: "Seven or eight people rushed out from the depths of the woods in the back, and I turned around and shot one with a bow and arrow, and the rest didn't dare to pursue, they should all disperse!" The tone was strangely flat, what he said was indeed the truth, and the process was much more complicated, and if it wasn't for the timely rescue of the mount, I am afraid that he would have already done a ghost, in fact, these Han Yu did not intend to say it, he didn't want to ask for credit, and he didn't want these merchants to feel that these bandits were vulnerable, but it was obvious that it backfired.

"Brother Han is so brave?" Another sturdy merchant leader in his early thirties was surprised, but he didn't expect Han Yu, a white-faced scholar who seemed to be powerless, to have the ability to ride and shoot.

"Han Yu's words are true!" A fat businessman in his early fifties who was pot-bellied and dressed in fancy clothes asked him hesitantly, and said frankly that it was possible to encounter jackals, tigers and leopards in the forest, and it was really unbelievable that a group of bandits suddenly appeared, even if there were bandits, it was really unbelievable that Han Yu would kill four bandits with the strength of one person, could it be that these bandits were standing in place and let him kill, as for Han Yu's statement, he didn't believe it at all.

"Naturally, take it seriously!" Han Yu's heart sank, things were already so clear, these people were still suspicious, did they have to kill the thieves to wake up like a dream?

"It's just that I heard that the forest is inaccessible to people, overgrown with weeds that are half a man high, and it has always been muddy and difficult to walk, if you want to come from the mountains through the dense forest..."

Therefore, it is inferred that what Han Yu said about the bandits is false, but the reason why the old man hesitated was because he really didn't understand why Han Yu was lying, and the old man suddenly remembered that he had heard that this young Han boy was in a hurry to go to Xuzhou, could it be that he was urging the caravan to leave earlier? Thinking about it, I have experienced so many things along the way, although it is only three days away from Xuzhou, it is still a lot of risk to go on the road alone, God knows if there will be natural and man-made disasters, but for the sake of Cui Linjiang's face, I will not say it.

"A month ago, the official army of Xuzhou just cleared the bandits of Shiyun Village, and I heard that more than eight hundred were beheaded, and the heads of the three major leaders are still hanging over the city," the handsome young merchant looked at Han Yu and sneered, "Could it be that these people are resurrected ghosts!" Han Yu laughed angrily, and suddenly found that he couldn't convince a group of self-righteous fools at all, so he snorted coldly and walked away, and there was a burst of angry shouting from the tent he had just left.
