Chapter 17: The Zhao Family's Convoy
"It's so hot!" Güllin complained.
He was carrying a big backpack and walking on a wide road, he didn't buy a horse, he didn't ride a car, although he had seen the package, and his family had brought him a lot of money, but he had only come out by himself, and he could save a little bit and exercise.
Although the idea and starting point were good, under the scorching sun, he suffered some sins, and complained constantly along the way.
Gu Lin had been away from Gude Town for five days, and in the past five days, he had passed through two towns, and of course he had not forgotten to go to Jianglong Town to buy a simple map to the county seat before he set off.
"Oh my God, send a cloud to shade me from the sun, I'm going to die of the sun!" roared Gulin, looking up to the sky.
"Don't scream, little brother, it's useless for you to scream loudly, you see where there is a cloud on this day. A voice came from behind.
Gu Lin turned his head and saw an elderly man, looking at him with a smile, like this, he was a bit like Grandpa Gu, but he was much younger than Grandpa Gu, his hair was still black, he had a goatee, and he was wearing a brown robe.
"Can you please not hit me, didn't you see that I was about to die of the sun?" said Gu Lin with a roll of his eyes.
"Hehehe, little brother, where are you going, seeing that you are carrying a big luggage, it is strange that you are not hot to death. The old man asked.
"Go out, how can you go without luggage, I'm going to Tianfeng City. Gulin replied.
"Oh, it's going to the county town, it's really far enough, so let's go with us, just drop by? The old man pointed to the carriage that was parked not far away.
"You, are you sure you want to take me with you!" asked Gu Lin expectantly.
The old man glanced at Gu Lin and said, "If you want to be sunburned, then don't come!"
"But I don't have any money!" Gu Lin hurriedly followed, but he still added to the old man.
Suddenly, the old man laughed: "It's okay, I don't want your money." ”
Gu Lin then began to look at the convoy, and at the front were two carriages that could be used as people, neither of which was very large, and each carriage could make the appearance of three or four people.
There were five wagons in the back, all of which were carrying boxes and bags, and it was not known what they contained.
Each vehicle is guarded by several uniformed guards on the left and right of each vehicle.
"Looking like this, it seems that it is still a large family's convoy, but this old man is really enthusiastic. Gulin thought.
At this moment, the old man walked to the front carriage, bowed to the carriage, and said, "Miss, according to your orders, I have brought the young man here. ”
"Got it, Uncle Ding, let him put his luggage in the car first, and then go with the guards!"
"Okay, Miss!" replied Uncle Ding. Then he was about to turn around and order Gu Lin, and at this moment, Gu Lin asked the person in the sedan chair, "Dare to ask Miss, why do you want to take me with you?"
"It's just a gesture. The man in the sedan said.
"yes, looking at the posture of this team, it's a big family, and if you want to say that there are any intentions for me, a person who can't even afford to hire a car, I'm afraid GUI won't believe it. Gu Lin thought like this, "And it is even more impossible to use me as a guard here, I am in front of these big Han guards, there is no comparison, and it would be good if I didn't support my hind legs." ”
"Let's go, lad!" said the old man.
Gu Lin smiled, shook off his childish thoughts, and followed the old man to the carriage behind to escort the goods.
In the world, there are still more good people, how can there be any heinous people. This was the next idea that Gulin came up with.
On my first long trip, I met a nobleman.
In the past few days, Gu Lin gradually got to know these people. The kind old man is named Ding Fu, everyone calls him Uncle Ding, and this team is the team of the Zhao family in the county town.
The girl sitting in the sedan chair, Gu Lin has never seen her true face, and in two days, she has only come out once, and from a distance, Gu Lin thinks that she should be a particularly beautiful girl.
However, it was extremely strange that it was clear that this convoy was going to the county seat, but Uncle Ding told him to go to the county town by himself after arriving in Liulin Town.
However, Gu Lin didn't shirk it, others didn't take him, so he went alone. In Gu Lin's opinion, it was good enough for him to walk with him for so long.
"Come on, hahaha, everyone is well fed and drunk!" said one of the guards laughing.
At this time, everyone had already set up camp in a field, and the guards were gathered together, eating meat and drinking wine to their heart's content.
"Come, drink!" shouted the other guards.
Against the backdrop of the bonfire in the middle, this scene has become the most moving picture in this wilderness and this night.
Gu Lin had been very familiar with them during this time. At this time, he also devoted himself to eating, drinking and having fun.
"Come, Brother Lin, have a drink!"
A somewhat drunk guard came to Gu Lin, Gu Lin knew his name, although he was not the most powerful person here, but he was the one who dealt with Gu Lin the most these days.
"Come, Brother Zhao Qi, do it!" Gu Lin boldly touched a glass of wine with Zhao Qi, and then drank it all, followed by laughing for no reason.
Both of them were already a little drunk, and Zhao Qi's drunkenness was obviously much stronger than Gu Lin's.
Zhao Qi sighed lightly, and Gu Lin was extremely puzzled.
"Why is Brother Zhao Qi sighing?" asked Gu Lin.
"Alas, how can I not sigh for my brother, tomorrow will be to that Liulin Town, and it will be the time to part with you! I don't know if I can see you again in the future, it's a pity!" Zhao Qi said.
"Brother Zhao Qi doesn't have to be like this, you also know that I will also go to the county town this time, and I will definitely look for you when the time comes. Gu Lin was touched by this Zhao Qi, and he could feel that Zhao Qi regarded him as a friend.
"Brother Lin, don't blame Uncle Ding for not taking you tomorrow, in fact, he won't take you for your own good!" Zhao Qi continued.
"Oh, why is that?" asked Gulin, puzzled.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, if we can live tomorrow, then Brother Lin will go to the county seat, I, Zhao Qi, will definitely treat you well!hahaha!" Zhao Qi was obviously drunk, said a lot of vaguely, and took a wine bowl and wandered away.
"It seems that this is not easy!" Gu Lin thought, "no matter, tomorrow, everything will be known."
