Chapter 508: Yellowbeard (1)

Aji and Ahemang were standing by a carriage talking.

The timing of their finding Yang Shouwen was very good, and it was when Yang Shouwen had just made the Liangzhou words. It is precisely because of this that Yang Shouwen did not doubt their motives, so he agreed to go out with them. But as soon as Mingxiu reminded him at this time, he immediately realized that he seemed to be being used! They took advantage of him and cleared the customs smoothly.

Glance at the convoy.

What used to look like an ordinary convoy suddenly became a little unusual.

Generally speaking, caravans of this size are mostly formed by several merchants. Even those big merchants in the Central Plains are unable to form such a caravan. Not to mention, this is a Hu merchant from Wolf Mountain.

Yang Shouwen never looked down on Hu Shang, but Hu Shang of Wolf Mountain ......

With all the strength of Simi, it may be possible to assemble such a large caravan, but is it possible?

Judging from the words and deeds of Aji and Ahemang, they have a pivotal position in this caravan. It was precisely for this reason that when the two of them invited Yang Shouwen and the four of them to join, no one in the caravan objected.

And now......

Yang Shouwen took a deep breath and said softly: "Don't be impatient, act when you have the opportunity." ”

"Understood."

Mingxiu took Yang Cunzhong to pack his bags, while Yang Shouwen and Yang Sixteen stood on the side of the road, not joining the caravan.

Na Ge Shu Daoyuan is obviously a general who respects literati and worships Buddha.

As the soldier and horse envoy of Heheshu, he is equivalent to the supreme commander of this Yumen Pass.

Aji: If they want to get out of the customs, they must have inquired about the situation at Yumen Pass.

Although he didn't know what was in the convoy, Aji didn't want to be discovered by the official army, so he found Yang Shouwen.

If there was no Yang Shouwen at that time, Aji and they must have other ways.

After Yang Shouwen figured out the mystery of this, he naturally had a little more scrutiny of Aji and the others.

Soon, he found that Aji and Ahemang were beside the carriage. It doesn't seem to be just a conversation.

Judging from what was shown before, Aji's status is higher than Ahemang's.

The two of them talked, and it was supposed that Aggie would be condescending. But Yang Shouwen found that the two of them were standing next to the carriage. They all bent over slightly. In other words, when the two are talking, they show a gesture of humility.

Is it necessary to humble one another in this way?

Yang Shouwen's gaze fell on the carriage.

Could it be that there was someone in the carriage? And that person is the real master of the caravan?

"Master, do you want to inform Heheshu?"

Yang Sixteen asked softly, with a look of vigilance.

"Take it easy, take it easy, we're monks now."

Yang Shouwen came back to his senses and gently patted Yang Sixteen's shoulder.

Although Yang Sixteen followed him for a short time, the ability he showed was very important to Yang Shouwen.

In terms of martial arts, he is not as good as Yang Cunzhong; On wit. He is not as good as Mingxiu. Observing words and emotions is not what he is good at, but he has integrated all aspects of his abilities, giving people a feeling of exquisiteness in all directions, so it makes Yang Shouwen even more satisfied.

"Wujing, the destination of our trip is the six cities, don't make any extraneous branches."

If Geshu Daoyuan is notified at this time, he will have to go back to cooperate with the investigation, and if he doesn't get it right, his identity may be exposed.

And this time, Yang Shouwen has a mission. It must never be exposed.

Caravans carrying bootlegged goods?

It's not unusual, and it's not even a big deal.

The imperial court also banned the sale of illicit salt, but the amount of illicit salt circulating and sold in the market every year has not decreased. The imperial court cracked down on illicit salt very hard, but what was the use? And this side stuffed smuggling. It is no different from selling illicit salt.

It is estimated that if the officers and soldiers find out, they may not be more real.

And for such a thing, his identity was exposed, and when he returned to Luoyang, Wu Zetian didn't know how to clean himself up.

So. The big picture is important, the big picture is important!

Thinking of this, Yang Shouwen was also relieved.

At this time, Aji walked over quickly, bowed and said, "Elder, we will go to the Broken Leaf River next, I don't know where the elder is going?" ”

Yang Shouwen smiled and said: "You Fang monks, the four seas are home, wherever you go, you are there."

This time, our purpose is to go to Tianzhu to seek the Dharma, but before that, the poor monk is willing to try the road to the west. ”

"Journey to the West?"

Obviously, Yang Shouwen's "Journey to the West" has not spread outside the Saiwai, so Aji doesn't know very well.

Yang Shouwen didn't care, and explained with a smile.

Then he said in a deep voice: "When the poor monk left Xingyang, someone entrusted me to bring some gifts to a friend in the six cities by the way. So I'm going to go to the six cities first, if you're in a hurry, you might as well go first, we still want to visit the road on the way. ”

Aggie was obviously stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.

"I was about to ask the elders if they wanted to come with us, but in that case, I don't force it.

We are in a bit of a hurry for this trip, otherwise we will walk with the elders, and I can't say that we can listen to a few more poems on the way. ”

"I felt something, so I wrote a poem.

If not, how can a poor monk do it? ”

The implication is that I just got a good poem by chance, not how good my talent is.

Regardless of whether Yang Shouwen was telling the truth or being modest, Aji didn't say anything more anyway.

They also needed to tidy up the carriages and horses, so Yang Shouwen and the four of them took their leave.

Looking at their departing backs, Aji hurried to the carriage again, and whispered outside the window, "Honghuru Nuer, those four monks are gone...... They said they were going to visit their friends in the city first, and we should send someone on the road......"

If Yang Shouwen was here, he would definitely be able to understand their conversation.

In the past six months, his Turkic language has improved rapidly.

Honghu means princess in Turkic language, and Runur is the name. In other words, there was a princess in the carriage?

"Forget it, don't make any more extraneous things.

I think the summoning elder probably saw something too, so he left in a hurry.

Since they don't want to cause trouble, let's not cause trouble either...... The order went down, and after packing up, he set off immediately, and he hurried tonight, and he must cross the Zheluo Mountain before dawn tomorrow. Father's side must be in a hurry, let's meet him as soon as possible, and we will be safer. ”

"Understood!"

Aggie said yes and hurried away.

After a while, the convoy was put in order. With a series of trumpet sounds, the melodious camel bell rang again, slowly heading towards the west.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

That night, Yang Shouwen and others arrived on the bank of the Liugushui River.

This willow valley water is already a river under the rule of Yizhou, that is, the Hami area of Xinjiang in later generations.

Yang Shouwen and his entourage didn't walk fast on the road, but they didn't see Aji's caravan catching up. It stands to reason that when they go to Shayechuan, they will pass through Tingzhou. And Yang Shouwen and the others also went to Tingzhou and did not meet, which shows that the two sides are not on the same road. In other words, the other party also sensed something, so he chose another path and staggered away from them.

Settling down on the river beach downstream of the willow valley water, the group of four did not go hunting, but lit a bonfire and fetched some dry food to satisfy their hunger.

The Western Regions is a world of worshipping Buddha.

If you behave too inappropriately here, you will inevitably get into trouble.

Therefore, Yang Shouwen and they were also very careful, after eating the dry food, Yang Shouwen and Yang Sixteen kept vigil, while Mingxiu and Yang Cunzhong went to bed early.

Mingxiu was on duty all night yesterday, and today she was on the road for another day, so she was naturally a little tired.

Yang Cunzhong, on the other hand, has to take care of two camels, and almost all the strength work in the team is done by him, which is also very hard.

Seeing the two of them sleeping, Yang Shouwen also closed his eyes next to the bonfire to recuperate.

"Sixteen, you can rest too, and I'll keep vigil at night."

Yang Sixteen, who was very obedient all the way, did not agree this time.

He said softly: "Senior Brother Shifang just said, Master is easy to get distracted, and he may wander out of the world at any time, so let me accompany Master, it will be safer." ”

When Yang Shouwen heard this, his face suddenly turned red.

He glared fiercely at Mingxiu, who was already lying in his clothes, then at Yang Sixteen, and finally waved his hand, let him go.

This Mingxiu will never forget to embarrass me!

But I also blame myself, who made him lose his mind last night and almost have an accident?

Thinking of this, Yang Shouwen could only shake his head helplessly, close his eyes and meditate.

Yang Sixteen sat not far away, leaning against a camel, holding two knives in his arms and a pair of smart eyes, vigilantly observing the movements around him...... (To be continued.) )
