Chapter 43: The Beekeeper
Originally, these people were all people who wanted to become the champions this time, and they didn't really feel much for seeing Liumao, a businessman, after all, they might have to announce that these people had won the championship right away, and then issue rewards. Although these people pull to Liumao, no matter who signs the jade card of these people, they will have a commission, but they are usually very happy, and they are eager to find various opportunities to pull past merchants, and then earn commissions. But isn't it a champion right away, with this foundation, there are some small profits that don't look down on Liumao.
However, it happened to meet Liumao, and a few people were not in a hurry to present the award, so they simply waited for Liumao to come over in the same place, neither as enthusiastic as the original, but also did not want to give up Liumao, a lamb who also wanted to be handed.
But life always has to take a turn with you, obviously this guy has come slowly in a carriage, and he is only a few dozen meters away from a few people, but a few people did not actively run over these dozens of meters, and then immediately gave a few people a way back, can this work? Can you bear it?
Of course not, this is clearly to the mouth to the meat, it looks like it's about to be cooked, and it's already open, how can the roundworm be hooked, but it can not be eaten!
Just kidding, not to mention that this guy may still know that there is another way, and he didn't even want to take out a gold coin, only to run away in a hurry when he saw his own people, hoping to avoid the cost of a gold coin toll. It's just not the case, if you hook yourself up, can you still let this guy run away easily?
Because of this, the team leader hurriedly beckoned everyone to quickly chase forward.
On the other side, because Liumao was sitting in the carriage, although he quickly asked the coachman to turn around and prepare to go back, he was always a little worried about the few officers and soldiers he had just seen behind him, for fear that they would chase after him again.
But the more he was afraid of something, the more he came, Liumao turned his head to look at these officers and soldiers for fear that they would chase after him again, but he didn't expect Liumao to turn his head and see the scene of them chasing over.
Fortunately, fortunately, this is always some distance away from their camp base, and they didn't ride their mounts when they came out, but Liumao was sitting in the carriage at this time, worried for a while, Liumao turned to think that it was impossible for them to run over four legs on two legs!
With this thought, his heart suddenly became much more relaxed, and when he turned around, the old man sat on the carriage with a god, and for a while Liumao even closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
In principle, two legs can't run four legs, but that's just a principle. In fact, there are always objective factors that make two legs run faster than four legs.
Just like now, although this game is basically not much different from reality, the speed of the horse is always faster than the human run, just like Liumao has to walk more than an hour from home to the field, but it only takes ten minutes to take the carriage. But there are attributes in the game, and the carriage that Liumao sits in is an ordinary carriage, but the officers and soldiers who chase Liumao are not ordinary people like Liumao. Not to mention them, even if the militia captain of Changshou Village fell into the carriage for dozens of meters, he might not be able to catch up with the carriage that was still running in Liumao and not empty. After all, it's just a carriage, no matter how fast it is, how fast can it go? It's not a beast.
Not to mention these officers and soldiers, who are much more powerful than the militia captains. So I really don't know where Liumao's confidence comes from, so I just glanced at the two-legged one chasing and didn't care about it, and began to pretend to sleep.
Hold it! The carriage in front of me stops! Don't stop me from attacking!
Before Liumao closed for a while, he heard a loud shout behind him, and in a big shock, he thought to himself how it was so fast, just now he could only hear a little sound, and now he felt the same in his ears. Hurriedly turned his head to look again, and saw that when the officers and soldiers behind him were less than ten meters away from the carriage, they didn't have time to turn back, and hurriedly said to the coachman, hurry up! They're going to catch up.
And several officers and soldiers who were chasing the six-mao carriage behind them quietly slowed down at this moment.
Seeing this, these officers and soldiers were not so close, and thought that the coachman was really fast, and said again under great joy, hurry up, hurry up, and leave them all behind.
But if the coachman could really leave these officers and soldiers behind very quickly, and he had already thrown them off before he could hear what they were shouting, how could he wait until now?
Now Liumao felt that the carriage was running fast, not really fast, but the carriage heard the words shouted by the officers and soldiers behind him, and then slowed down and prepared to stop, and the officers and soldiers behind him saw that the speed of the carriage had slowed down, and they didn't have to run so fast when they knew that the shouting had an effect.
But also, these carriages belong to the empire, not to mention small things, especially when the officers and soldiers are there, and when they shout to stop, how can they listen to people like Liumao? No matter how much money he gave, it was useless, not to mention that Liumao hadn't added more money to the driver.
Not to mention, it's quite funny for these people to see Liumao's appearance, especially when the car hasn't completely stopped, and when the speed of these people slows down, Liumao yells quickly, hurry up, and leave them all behind, which is really unbearable.
Until the carriage came to a complete stop, Liumao didn't react to what was going on, and his eyes revealed how you caught up so quickly, and he didn't notice that the carriage had stopped at this time, and these people laughed and said, Okay, don't look at it. Let's talk about it first.
After Liumao reacted, he simply got out of the carriage according to their instructions.
What do you do? Seeing that Liumao was quite obedient, the captain stepped forward and asked.
Liumao didn't know what to do at this time, in addition to cooperating, his attributes added up were not enough for these people to warm up, and now they were firmly guarded by these people, if they didn't cooperate with them, why should they go to find them uncomfortable?
But the situation has been so bad, Liumao thought to himself, where can he suffer again? directly obeyed Duan Cub's explanation, took out dozens of gold coins from his pocket, and prepared to try to see if he could break the fortune and avoid disasters.
Yo! This kid is good. Several people glanced at each other, and felt in their hearts at the same time.
Of course, money is useful, but if it is not used properly, then it is..?
What are you doing? Who are you going to bribe! Tell me, why did you run away when you saw a few of us?
Seeing that these people didn't accept it, Liumao's cheeks twitched, so he had to put away the gold coins he took out first, thinking that it seemed that what Brother Duan said was not very accurate, and sure enough, they didn't accept it.
But as everyone knows, there is a reason for not accepting it. Not to mention dozens of gold coins, even hundreds of thousands of gold coins, six cents to take out, they don't dare to accept it. If the rules are broken today because of these gold coins, then tomorrow these merchants will not come here again if they feel unstable here, for fear that the lion will open their mouths, and the money will not be earned, and the foundation will be lost. So the rules are not only for these businessmen to follow, but also for these officers and soldiers to defend it.
Besides, now Liumao is very likely to know another way to avoid tolls, otherwise why would he have been stopped when he saw himself running away as soon as he turned around. And take out so many gold coins at once?
And so these gold coins can not be collected.
After Liumao put away the gold coins, he did not hide it and said directly to these officers and soldiers, a few big brothers, I want to go to Yandang Mountain, since the big brothers are not allowed to go, then I will go back.
Don't be close, everyone who comes here is going to Yandang Mountain, we know this, why do you run back when you see a few of us? After hearing this, these people were a little puzzled, and thought to themselves, when would they not let him pass? But forget it, it doesn't matter. He simply said directly.
Liumao was stunned, but he thought, since these people didn't let him pass, of course he had to run back? Otherwise, would it be possible to stay where you are and wait for you to come and drive you away? opened his mouth and said, didn't the big brothers come to drive me away?
A few people were even more stunned, and the captain asked as a representative, no, when did we say that we were going to drive you away? Didn't you turn around and leave when you saw a few of us scared?
After listening to Liumao, he suddenly felt that something was wrong in his heart, if they really came to drive him away, just say it directly, how could he still say this, some didn't understand, so he simply asked directly, then you chased after it?
If you hadn't run away when you hadn't seen us, a few of us would have thought it would be difficult for us to run away when there was another passage in the mountain, and then we would have run away when we saw us, and we wouldn't have come to chase you. The captain looked at Liumao carefully a few times, and felt that Liumao didn't seem to be a person who could do this, especially in this mountain range, just the head of the middle group went back and forth a few times, how could there be another passage and everyone didn't know. couldn't help but roll his eyes for a while, and said to Liumao.
After hearing this, Liumao was even more puzzled, thinking that what Brother Duan said was true? Otherwise, how could these officers and soldiers say that they were afraid that they would know that they had found another passage, so they asked tentatively, those big brothers, can we directly find the big brother to take us to Yandang Mountain?
Nonsense! Could it be that you came here and no one told you? If you don't rely on us to get through, how many of you alone will be able to fly around our blockade? The captain rolled his eyes and said.
Liumao wiped his sweat and thought to himself that Brother Duan really didn't lie to me, but this Nima's, if it weren't for his personal experience, who would have believed that the NPCs in the game could still accept bribes, especially since these people are all border soldiers. But they just handed them these people, why don't they take it? Or do you think it's too little? said embarrassedly, making several big brothers laugh, and the younger brother came over for the first time. Those big brothers just now?
You're asking about the gold you just handed over, right? Again, how could they accept you when you don't know your purpose. Besides, we have rules here, and if no one makes this clear to you, I'll tell you again now. After that, the captain and Liumao told them all the rules.
After listening to it, Liumao said with a smile, I'm tired of a few big brothers, and he didn't know these things for the big brother I told me before, but just told me to come here and try it. I'm just that. A few big brothers, in this way, I have some gold coins here, which is counted as my personal apology to the few people just now.
When these people heard Liumao say this, of course they would not refuse, this was not what they took the initiative to ask, but Liumao took the initiative to give, no matter how bad it was, it couldn't break the rules, so they all accepted it very simply. And Liumao didn't produce these gold coins in vain, at least with these gold coins, his attitude towards him changed from cold to enthusiastic, and then he easily led Liumao to the camp and then sent him to the fifth mountain, and then the defenders of the Dongfeng Empire sent Liumao to the foot of Yandang Mountain.
It was not easy to come on this trip, and I was afraid that the method would not work, and it was easy to run into the officers and soldiers but was chased by a wave, and finally I even sat down on the birds of the two countries, and I don't know what kind of moths the beekeepers will have here next. Liumao walked alone for a while, saw a row of thatched houses at the foot of the mountain, and thought that this was where the beekeeper was, and sighed in his heart.
