Chapter XI
That night, something happened in the caravan, a royal was severely trained by Xun Kuang, which was not a big deal originally, but Xu Ji had already had doubts about Xun Kuang, not to mention that this royal was just because he accidentally opened the corner of the covering of the goods, Xu Ji looked at this scene and already smiled, he could already guess what this batch of goods was, there must be weapons that were clearly prohibited, and maybe even some more interesting things, such as he finally saw the person who talked about "trading" with Chen's Huafu Gongzi again, is also dressed as a royal man, looking at the carload of goods, his eyes are greedy that cannot be concealed, but his expression is extremely hideous, like a demon opened his mouth, choosing people to eat.
Because he arrived in Xiangcheng, he sent Xiaozhuang back to Yingchuan, only Chen Zhi was around, at this time Chen Zhi didn't know where to run to walk the horse, this is Xu Ji said casually when he saw that he was bored, Chen Zhi was meticulous in execution, and now Xu Ji regretted it, because he saw the hideous "business" turned around and wanted to hide in the crowd, Xu Ji decided to follow!
Xu Ji Zhilu Dao is very risky to do this, because he is found to be in danger of life for the time being, this person is definitely going to run away, this person is the only clue that Xu Ji can catch at present, Xu Ji Zhilu Dao missed this matter, and he is really an audience.
The brain was still spinning, but Xu Ji's feet were not slow, and he was also closely following the royal in front of him through the crowd of the caravan, fortunately, the scale of this caravan was not small, and under the cover of various camps, Xu Ji finally followed the royal and was not discovered.
Of course, this is not how good Xu Ji's skills are, but that this emperor has no defenses except for the most basic precautions, and he doesn't care about whether he is noticed or not, but to be honest, there are so many people in the caravan, whoever pays attention to you may not be able to feel it at the first time, not to mention that Xu Ji is a child.
The man dressed as a royal suddenly stopped in front of a seemingly ordinary camp tent, Xu Ji hurriedly took a few steps back, hid in a dead corner, cautiously observed a little probe, and the person who looked like a royal man looked left and right and entered the camp tent.
Xu Ji silently counted the time, and then walked to the side of the tent, and found a corner that was not too noticeable to listen.
There seemed to be an argument inside, and the low voice made Xu Ji not really hear.
I only vaguely heard the great sage and good teacher, what the Chen family's plan, what the Xun family's intentions.
Xu Ji was even more confused, but Xu Ji realized that he couldn't listen anymore, and it would be too late for him to leave if he listened any longer, so he tiptoed back without waiting for him to think clearly about the connection between these intermittent words.
Xu Ji who returned to the carriage was still at a loss, the current Jingzhou Mu was still Wang Rui, and he was not Liu Jingsheng, one of the later "Eight Jun", Xu Ji knew almost nothing about this benevolent brother, and the only name Xu Ji knew was "Great Sage and Good Teacher", there was no doubt that it was Zhang Jiao, Xu Ji did not expect Zhang Jiao to start gathering people so early, and he did not expect that the Yellow Turban Uprising was very likely to be pushed by the hands of the big families behind him, Xu Ji sneered again, these wealthy families, sure enough, none of them are still clean under their hands.
Chen Zhi still hasn't returned, and the caravan's camp has begun to be lively, and it really looks calm, but the undercurrent surging below is already surging. Xu Ji watched all this silently, shook his head, and continued to go back to sleep.
The sky has darkened, Chen Zhi has also set up a small camp, Xu Ji wants to sleep in the carriage, but the horse also has to eat forage, so he was very reluctant to be woken up by Chen Zhi from his sleep, the days of stop-and-go have consumed Xu Ji's great patience, he even began to be irritable, today's discovery made him even more irritable, he was confused and felt that he didn't know anything about the caravan in front of him, Chen Zhi obviously couldn't help Xu Ji.
At this time, Xu Ji was sitting in front of the bonfire, frowning and looking at Xun Kuang not far away, did he understand? Xu Ji was full of doubts, and Xun Kuang in the distance was talking and laughing, obviously not aware of Xu Ji's observation. Chen Zhi suddenly asked on the side: "Young master, I found something interesting. ”
Xu Ji turned his head to look at Chen Dao, his eyes showing doubts.
"In the caravan, it is divided into two factions, and they are clearly distinguished." Chen's answer was concise and to the point.
Xu Ji frowned again, and now he was puzzled by the fact that the caravan with complex power and the clearly distinct factions had participated in the game between the forces of power? Xu Ji began to worry, as if he had intervened in a game that he couldn't control, and he was probably one of the chess pieces.
But Xu Ji is definitely not a character who is willing to be used, since someone calculates him, then Xu Ji will inevitably bite back, since he dares to calculate me, he naturally has to bear the price, Xu Ji's thoughts are extremely simple.
"Uncle Zhi, along the way, I'm afraid we won't be able to be at peace anymore, I guess, in this caravan, I'm afraid there are more than two forces in the game, and the situation is becoming more and more unclear." After a pause, Xu Ji added again, "Uncle Zhi, be careful, we are weak, and we are in a situation, and it is probably not easy to protect ourselves." ”
Although Chen Zhi didn't fully understand Xu Ji's words, he was good at this, as long as you explained, he would do it, whether he could understand the meaning of this order or not, he was really a natural soldier, and it was his duty to obey, Xu Ji sighed in his heart.
On the same day, the caravan set off early, as the farther and farther away from Xiangcheng, the atmosphere in the caravan also changed faintly, the harmony of the initial restraint became weaker and weaker, Xun Kuang gradually couldn't suppress the more and more obvious differentiation in the caravan, Xu Ji knew that he couldn't intervene now, the person was light, only the more chaotic the situation, Xu Ji could get more space to let go, Xu Ji began to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, and Chen Zhi was annoyed, Xu Ji could find a reason to avoid disputes at will, But he is different, the martial artists always have some dirty means to force people to get angry, and fortunately, Xu Ji has already reminded him that Chen has been provoked no less than eight times in this day, this has to be replaced by a young and vigorous young man, under the impulse, most of them are wasted, and this kind of thing is not to blame others. Fortunately, Chen Zhi was originally calm and calm, and with the precautions he had taken precautions, Chen Zhi finally coped with the past.
Of course, his face was very bad, Xu Ji looked at his bitter and hateful face, and said to him with a smile: "No matter how long this face is, it will be comparable to your mount." ”
Chen Zhi just replied with a smile comparable to crying, it must be deliberate, this unscrupulous young master, Chen Zhi's resentment Xu Ji obviously doesn't know the way, uh, even if he knows the way, it is estimated that he will only laugh more happily.
That night, Xu Ji hid in the camp tent early, and Chen Zhi did not stay longer in order to avoid more troubles.
In the tent.
Chen Zhi asked Xu Ji with a bitter face: "Young master, when will this day be the head?" These scum are no match for me, so why do you have to put up with them all the time? ”
Xu Ji smiled: "If I can't bear it, I don't want to bear it, but unfortunately the situation is stronger than people, there are obviously people in this caravan who want to put me to death, but on the surface, this is Xun's caravan, they are not good to attack directly, they can force you to hurt people, no, you don't have to hurt people, as long as we do it, we will definitely be driven out, once we leave Xun Kuang's protection, how long can you and I live in the wilderness?" Besides, let's think that Xun Kuang wants to protect me, and the other party wants to kill me, this is just a trivial matter. What's even more interesting is that it's not just us in this caravan, but also the big deal that I still don't know what it means, and even the changes in the plans of these wealthy families. It's already a mess in this game, as long as we hold on for a few more days, the momentum here will naturally be unbearable, and we will be ignored at that time, and that's when you and I let it go. After saying this, Xu Ji's mouth was a little dry, Chen Zhi handed over a pot of water, Xu Ji took a sip, and continued, "Uncle Zhi, I estimate that within a day or two, some people in the caravan will not be able to hold back, at that time, you and I just took advantage of the situation to see, who wants Xu Ji's life, when the time comes, Xun Kuang, I am afraid that I will have to take action, just borrow his hand, first get rid of those who dare to do it." ”
Chen Zhi's face sank like water, took back the kettle in Xu Ji's hand, and asked again: "How sure is the young master?" ”
Xu Ji smiled: "Ten percent!" ”
Chen Zhi didn't ask what was going on, Xu Ji didn't plan to take the initiative to answer, a master and a servant had a tacit understanding not to mention this matter, the only change was that Chen Zhi was more low-key and cold, and Xu Ji also disappeared in the increasingly unstable caravan without any sense of existence.
Sometimes, a person is like a pawn in chess, a sacrifice to death, or a pioneer who smashes the Yellow Dragon, Xu Ji is ready to teach the manipulator behind the scenes a hard slap.
I, Xu Ji, am not a soft persimmon that can be kneaded by others, since I am plotting, Xu Ji will definitely return you a big gift, otherwise, wouldn't it be too sorry for your plan to attach so much importance to you?
Xu Ji began to think silently, this time he was planning a thing alone in the real sense, and in such a situation, Xu Ji's potential was infinitely stimulated.
Xun Kuang is very annoying these days, since he received the order to lead this caravan, he knew that this is definitely not an easy job, but he never expected that things were complicated to such a point, and the increasingly chaotic situation could no longer maintain the apparent calm, he began to worry, in fact, this trip to business does not matter the result, Xun Kuang's responsibility only needs to escort Xu Ji to Jiangxia safely, yes, Xun Kuang is completely obedient to Xun Yu's orders, basically the existence of a retainer. Xun Kuang understood this, although he was fighting over the power of the caravan, but in fact, the only thing he was worried about was Xu Ji's safety.
Of course, Xu Ji's low profile made him feel a lot less pressure. Of course, he didn't know what to do, Xu Ji had already begun to calculate him.
