As for Cao Cao's attitude, needless to say, he has long been interested in King Li, and the forces of Jiangdong and Yizhou are among the objects that the two of them are trying to woo, as long as King Li is undiminished and points to the world, presumably these two parties will not resist stubbornly, and will definitely move closer to their own side.

Of course, plans will always change, just like Liu Ji's plan is foolproof, but Zhang Bu saw the move and slowly broke it, and there was no end to the good, all in one thought.

This day is also a period of time away from Wei Yan's departure, although the road to Shu is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky, but there are also many merchants from the north to enter Shu, for them, in the troubled times, the most important thing in this land in Shu is grain and grass, as long as a large amount of money can be exchanged for a batch of grain and grass, it means that a windfall will fly into the bag.

This also drove a large number of people who did not want to die to go deep into Shu Road, from Chencang Mountain to Dingjun Mountain, as long as they got through this difficult place, it would be simple to enter Shu.

Wei Yan led a team of 100 people pretending to be merchants, and the donkey carts were full of gold and silver treasures, but only half of each box was disguised with medicinal materials, and he was afraid that he would be found out and cause trouble when he cleared the customs.

But fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang only guarded the border tightly, and relaxed his vigilance against the two rugged paths into Shu, and came to Dingjun Mountain without danger, and was about to enter the Kei Valley, but there were always some blind thieves who coveted it.

Speaking of which, there are a total of five caravans in which Wei Yan is located, and everyone can take care of each other when they travel together, the largest one is composed of scholars and disciples, there are almost three hundred people, and the smallest one is only more than thirty people, and Wei Yan's department is the team that can rank second in terms of numbers.

At this time, something happened suddenly, and this team of more than 300 people suddenly drew swords and clubs and surrounded Wei Yan and others.

Wei Yan's department looked quite nervous, if the leader of the Shi clan team knew that they were just worried about revealing their whereabouts, and didn't take them seriously, I don't know how he would feel.

At this time, a man came out of the crowd of scholars, more than forty years old, but he looked very capable, and it could be seen from his elegant movements that this person was systematically educated.

"Everyone, please don't panic, we won't kill you for money, as long as you divide half of the money you carry with us, you can leave by yourself."

The crowd was in an uproar, and someone exclaimed: "I know, it means that there were always some people who entered Shuzhong a few years ago but never returned, I am afraid that they were harmed by this week's family." ”

Wei Yan's heart moved, and he smiled: "Then I don't know how this strongman can guarantee the safety of our wait?" ”

The man smiled and said, "Don't worry, brother, as long as you do what I say, when I finish counting your money, it will be withdrawn after the collection is completed, and you can also use the remaining half of the silver money to trade, and the price at this time will not make you lose money." ”

Wei Yan couldn't help but sneer, this old bastard really thought he was a deceitful.

Wei Yanhe smiled: "Okay, we admit it, you come up and count the money." ”

Someone next to him was in a hurry, and lowered his voice and said: "Don't believe him, this brother didn't understand the situation before, but now that I think about it, every time there is a caravan from the Zhou family, there will be no possibility of survival, and now I think about it, I must have encountered their poisonous hands, why don't I join forces......"

Wei Yan turned his head and said seriously: "People are swords, I am fish and meat, and stubborn resistance can only be a lose-lose situation, why don't we break the wealth and eliminate the disaster, this harmony can still make money, isn't it." ”

The elegant man's eyes flashed with a cold glint, and he turned to smile as he walked, and said, "What this brother said is reasonable, harmony makes money, you go to business, and I will naturally leave after taking the money...... Wait, what is this?! ”

An exclamation suddenly sounded, it was from the man's mouth, he opened the medicinal herbs used to cover up, and the bottom was covered with gold and silver treasures, the amount not only shocked him, but what made him exclaim was the horse chopping knife that was lying on the edge, his pupils constricted, and a cool breath rose from the center of his feet, and he only felt his hands and feet numb.

Wei Yan suddenly appeared behind him and said coldly: "This is a horse chopping knife, a blade that can only be equipped by the elite of foot combat, presumably in your eyes, you won't know it." ”

The man swallowed his saliva, and he couldn't make a sound when he wanted to speak, but Wei Yan lifted him up with just one hand around his neck, suffocating fear wrapped around him, and he passed out after a while.

Those strongmen noticed the abnormality and had already slaughtered them, Wei Yan shouted angrily: "Brothers, do it!" ”

The sound of clicking was endless, all the sound of the box opening, a sword with a flickering cold light appeared in front of him one after another, and the eyes of the soldiers were bloodthirsty, and at this time they were still smiling, their hands were up and down, and those strongmen with ordinary swords and even some sticks fell to the ground one after another.

There is simply no room for resistance, this is a one-sided slaughter.

In just a stick of incense, many strongmen threw their blades and knelt on the ground, crying for their father to surrender, but Wei Yan sneered and spit out a word fiercely, without any emotion.

"Kill!"

It is the nature of a soldier to carry out orders, and at this time, he did not question it at all, and raised his butcher's knife directly against the unarmed captive, and the blood was mixed together, dyeing this piece of land red, and the disgusting aura spread, and the people of the other caravans had never seen life and death, and they vomited for a while.

Wei Yan saw that he had finished paying the strongman, turned around and said: "It's none of your business here, where to go, this person will be handed over to you to deal with, as for our identity and whereabouts, it's best not to reveal it, I have your detailed information here, and the consequences can be estimated by myself." ”

Wei Yan didn't lie, he had investigated the origins of these people in the past few days, but he didn't expect that the Zhou clan would collude with the thieves, and this could be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.

Everyone thanked Wei Yan and sent him away, and then they gathered around to discuss what to do.

One of the old merchants said: "Our caravan will go home, I will bring this person back to Fufeng, the Zhou family's deeds are unseemly, but I am also working for the other two scholars, so black and black, I must want the Zhou family to look good." ”

There is no doubt that the old man wants to take away the elegant man, here is the most powerful behind him, and he can compete with the Zhou family, but there are two merchants who seem to be a little unwilling to go in vain, and plan to continue to move forward and enter Shuzhong business.

The old man glanced at them, but his cloudy eyes were full of shrewdness, and said: "I advise you, if it is not peaceful today, this group of people is the people of the official army at a glance, if it is under the command of Lord Mu Zhou, it is fine, if it is owned by other forces, it is worth pondering." ”

Everyone's hearts were pang, thinking that this is indeed the case, if they enter Shu but meet this group of people, they really have ulterior secrets at that time, I am afraid that they will kill people and keep their mouths shut.

As soon as they gritted their teeth, everyone still planned to return the same way, after all, money was not so important compared to their own lives.
