Chapter 80 (6) Thunder on a Rainy Night
Outside the village, in a rain and fog, the mountains are like a faint ink painting, hazy and quiet. The peaks and woods in the distance www.biquge.info were shrouded in a layer of water vapor, the dark clouds hung low, and the rain was stirring in the wind, drifting at will. The winding mountain road, drenched in the rain, stretches out into the distance, there are no pedestrians on the road and in the mountains, this is normal, this kind of weather, farming, business, medicine, wood, will not come out, so far and near, there is no figure to see, far and near, far and near, mountains and forests, grass and trees, are silent in the drizzle. There is a saying that "the cow hair is not sunny after the cow hair", and this kind of cow hair drizzle does not stop, indicating that the rain is far from over.
These people slipped under their feet, along the mountain road, all the way forward, a man wearing straw shoes shook the mud on his shoes, and complained: "This ghost weather, Master Wang made a sheep madness, so he will come out in the rain. ”
"Who said no," the other man turned his umbrella, shook the droplets of water, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Greet Master Wang, and there will be another war, and the fight will not be long-sighted, and I can save my life, even if I am lucky, I hope that Master Wang will never come." ”
"What strange things are you two saying," reprimanded a skinny little leader with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, "and be careful of your hard labor when you speak discouragement and ruin your morale." ”
None of the group spoke, and hurried forward in the rain. After walking three or five miles, I saw a caravan in front of me, four or five healthy horses, carrying full of goods, coming towards me. These people think it is a little strange, rain and snow weather, the caravan will generally rest, because the goods are rained, it is easy to be damaged, and the road is difficult to walk in rainy days, once the horse stumbles, it is likely to take the horse with the goods, fall into the valley. The caravan braved the rain to make their way, apparently in a hurry. The two sides met, the thin leader stared at the caravan, and the people from the caravan also stared at a few of them, and a young man in front of the head who was not tall asked with a smile: "Little brother, how to get to Tongjiazhai?" ”
"Are you going to Tongjiazhai?" The thin leader's eyes lit up, "Dare to ask the guests what kind of business they are doing?" Is there any tung oil for sale? ”
"There is no tung oil, tung seeds and salt, we have enough goods."
The code word was right, and the thin leader breathed a sigh of relief, nodded again and again, and said politely: "It turned out to be Master Wang's people, you have worked hard." We are the ones sent by the village to greet your honored guests. ”
"Really? Thank you so much. The young man said with a grin.
The thin man asked, "When will Master Wang come?" ”
The young man pointed back, "It's right behind, you see, here." ”
In the distance of the mountain road, a group of cavalry appeared in the field of vision, and it seemed that there were more than twenty people, these cavalrymen were all dressed in civilian clothes, and they walked slowly in the rain, and the crisp sound of horses' hooves knocked on the muddy mountain road, making a chaotic sound. In the middle of the horse caravan, there were three large carts, all tightly covered with sheds, and this line of horses was lined up in a long line, and they were walking this way.
"Okay, I'll report right away. Please come with me. The thin man nodded and said, gesturing to one of his attendants, who took out a bamboo bow from his backpack, mounted an arrow, and shot it into the sky.
"Whoosh-woo." A strange scream rang out in midair. This arrow is a ringing arrow, and the shaft of the arrow is made into a hollow whistle, which passes through the air, and the air urges the whistle tongue, and it makes a sharp sound.
The young man in the caravan was a little clever, and he connected with these secret sentinels of Tongjiazhai, so he took the caravan and followed the thin man to Tongjiazhai. The team behind was an armed team led by Duan Laosan, and Shi Suo redressed and sat in the first carriage. He lifted the curtain of the car, and saw from a distance the "horse gang" with the little clever belt negotiating with a few passers-by with umbrellas, and knew that the "play" was about to begin. Duan Laosan, who was riding on a horse next to him, also told everyone: "Attention, someone has come to pick it up, and everyone looks like a little bit." Stone lock, quickly retract in, don't let the rain get wet with the makeup on your face. ”
The horses picked up speed and galloped forward.
In front, the little clever man chatted with the thin man with a grin, "Dude, we have two pathfinders, they have already been to the village, right?" ”
"I went there, but then I was arrested."
"Huh?" The little ghost pretended to be taken aback, "What's the matter, brother, who dares to arrest our people?" Eaten bear heart leopard gall? ”
"It's Li Erhei from Sanhu Village, but don't worry, we will kill them soon and rescue these brothers. Our Master Tong is a person who doesn't rub sand in his eyes. ”
"Hmph, our lord Wang, and even more so the king of heaven are not afraid, whoever dares to go against us is a mouse licking the cat's nose and looking for death. By the way, have you prepared all the food for Master Wang? ”
"What food? I do not know. ”
"Master Wang is a rich and noble person, do you think that just like us, just eat a nest of pickles? His old man has a special menu, have you heard of tangerine peel vinegar fish? Have you ever heard of hibiscus roast pork? And glutinous rice black chicken, forget it, I know you haven't seen it. ”
A few people slipped on the mountain road, slowly approaching Tongjiazhai, the little clever saw a few more people coming out of the village from a distance, looking at this with an umbrella, he asked the thin man: "Who are those people?" Are you here to greet Master Wang? ”
"Yes, Master Wang is our new guest, and the big housekeeper will definitely come out of the village to greet them."
When he was about to arrive at the gate of the village, the little clever suddenly became nervous, because he saw that among the people standing at the gate of the village, one of them had a big face, just like a big horse, although he had never seen a horse-faced person, but he heard Shi Suo and Tong Gu say that this person is called Kong Xiong, strong in martial arts, very difficult to deal with, and more importantly, he is Wang Jufu's subordinate, for Wang Jufu's team, he should naturally be very familiar with it, so these people, as well as Duan Laosan and so many other "imposters" behind, the horse-faced people have seen it, will immediately recognize it as a fake.
What to do?
The little clever man is usually known for his clever brain, but now he is also worried, he grinds, pretends that his feet are muddy and difficult to walk, and the more he walks, the slower and slower, the thin-faced man urges: "Brother, hurry up, everyone is wet." ”
"You guys go first, we'll have to wait for the team behind."
Naturally, the thin-faced man refused to go first, so he stopped and waited with him for the horse team behind. The little clever spirit was anxious, but his face did not appear, and he chatted with the thin man without saying a word, and kept looking back, the horse team led by the third child at this time was almost approaching.
Duan Laosan was riding on a horse and walking at the front of the team, and he also saw the horse-faced man at this time. (To be continued.) )
