——Gods——

Nanzhan Buzhou, within the territory of Kunwu country.

At dusk, the setting sun casts a crimson glow over the vast plains, green and slightly golden wheat fields, making the ox carts passing through the wheat fields feel like they are driving on the sparkling sea.

The driver of the cart, dressed in black cloth and carrying a hat, was complaining about something to the old ox who was slowly pulling the cart, but the old cow always kept its pace unmoved, and the body behind the driver was loaded with bulging goods, covered by a piece of earthy yellow kudzu cloth.

Stompe! Stompe! At this time, the sound of horses' hooves came from behind the car, and at the same time, there was also the sound of men shouting.

"Drive!" "The old man pulling the cart, stop!" "Tell me about you!"

The coachman tugged on the reins twice, but the old cow ignored them completely, and he had to let go of the reins and raise his hands to show that he had done nothing.

Pedal Pedal –

Six riders riding horses of different colors, but with similar bronze armor and weapons, quickly approached the ox cart and stopped the stubborn ox with all their might.

"On the orders of the king, track down the fugitives, take off your hat and let us see your face!" The leading rider turned his horse's head and looked condescendingly at the coachman.

"Huh? Fugitive? The coachman took off his hat and revealed a weather-beaten face with a thick beard and gray hair that looked to be in his fifties.

The riders' expressions were relieved, and the tone of the leader softened a little: "Where are you from?" Where are you going? ”

"I'm coming from the suburbs of Chen, and I'm about to go to Kunwu in front of me to deliver goods to them." The old coachman replied a little nervously.

"Goods?" Another rider approached the carriage and lifted the cover; “…… What is it? ”

I saw that the carriage was loaded with large and small bamboo baskets and rattan baskets, and these woven containers were piled with dark red earth.

"This is clay," said the old coachman, "it can be used to shape clay kilns, to fire pottery and porcelain, or tiles and bricks, but ordinary copper and iron will rust and break after a long time of contact, so they can only be packed in rattan baskets." ”

His last words caused one of the riders who tried to poke the dirt with a bronze jaw to withdraw their weapon.

The leader of the riders was hesitating, but he saw a carriage coming from the direction of Kungoku, and there were various rattan baskets in the body, but it was not loaded with earth, but instead some finished pottery and grain cloth.

The coachman waved to the old coachman, but said nothing because there were several heavily armed riders present.

The leader of the "......" hesitated for a moment, turned the spearhead, quickly poked a few times in several relatively large rattan baskets, turned the horse's head, and pointed in the direction of Kunwu: "Let's go!" ”

Seeing that the six horses had gone away, the old coachman covered the rattan basket with cloth, and drank the oxen for a long time before he went on the road slowly.

When they finally arrived at a settlement in Kungo, it was already completely dark, and the old coachman met several riders in the settlement who also planned to stay overnight.

The riders watched as he made deals with several pottery workshops, exchanged some supplies, and went to the inn to rest, before retracting his scrutinizing gaze.

————

"Yo! Uncle! You're very good! As soon as the old coachman entered his house, he was tapped on the shoulder.

"I turned from an uncle to an uncle...... Yi Yin touched the beard on the side of his mouth: "But it seems that I can't refute it." ”

He turned to look at the elated woman...... Forget it, you can't get used to her, it's Meixi.

She was wearing a coarse cloth suit that was very similar to the color of the ox cart, at least in terms of grade compared to when she had fled from the Xia Palace, but she didn't seem to care at all.

"You probably haven't noticed," said the younger sister, "after they left, they secretly came around the wheat field and followed you, and I could see clearly under the car that they were missing a few people just now, and they were cleaning the ears of wheat." ”

"Ah...... They're probably checking the carriage right now, but they didn't think you'd have left before you entered the settlement. Yi Yin nodded and began to organize his clothes and belongings.

This time, the identity he borrowed was a real clay merchant who traveled back and forth between Shen Cheng and Kunwu - of course, he belonged to the Shang Kingdom, so all the proceeds of this round trip had to be given to the old man after the matter was over.

"So, what's next?" Meixi blinked at him: "I compared it and found that I couldn't outrun those horses." ”

"If you're really a monster, that's fine, this kind of half-can only hide the magic power of your voice...... Tut. Yi Yin shook his head: "Continue to follow me, at present, 'Kunwu', 'Gu', 'Wei', and these three kingdoms are all directly under the Xia Dynasty, and the guards can act at will, and it would be better to get the 'Ge Kingdom' and our 'Shang Kingdom'." ”

"Half-demon power? And what about your face? And this. "My sister went to pull Yi Yin's beard.

"It's just a simple application of the power of 'witch', the legendary witch is more than that," Yi Yin pressed Meixi's head and pushed her away, "Go and rest, it's very suspicious for an old man who has been on the road for a day to keep lighting the lamp in the middle of the night." ”

"Hey~" Meixi took advantage of her strength to retreat, rolled on the bed, and made a seductive expression with that fox-like charming face: "Then you come up~?" ”

"And then you were half killed by the demonic power that protected you, didn't you?" Yi Yin took out a wrap skin from his belongings and spread it on the floor with an expressionless face, "I have to travel tomorrow, if you think it is easy to put under the ox cart, you can not sleep." ”

"Hmm...... Hum. Meixi jumped out of bed and opened her mouth to blow out the lamp.

Whew-

There was a strange wind that didn't look like it was blowing a lamp, and the lamp wasn't blown out.

Yi Yin was wondering what Mei Xi was playing again, so she suddenly pounced on her back: "Tiger Tiger Tiger - Big Tiger!" ”

He was involuntarily turned around by the girl, and then he saw a white-fronted tiger with hanging eyes appear out of thin air in the post house, looking at this side with a playful gaze.

"Don't panic, this is not a tiger," Yi Yin looked at the white tiger's green eyes, the strange long hair on the top of his head, and a pair of black wings: "It's one of the four legendary murderers, [Qiqi]." ”

"I'm more panicked, okay!" My sister screamed.

"There's really no need to panic, if it's a tiger, if we can't beat it, we may be eaten," Yi Yin said: "But if it's a poor Qi, whether you eat it or not depends on its mood...... Didn't have to fight. ”

"......" the sister was speechless, but she refused to look at it.

"Well, I have to correct one of your mistakes before we start talking," Qi Qi said, "My current name is 'Our Lady of Golden Light', and I am a disciple of the Master of the Tongtian Sect of the Interception Sect. ”
