Chapter 86: Youzhou (42)
Xu Zhi was shocked in his heart, and said quietly: "How many people? ”
"It's like just one person!" The coachman's words did not make Xu Zhi relax.
Suddenly an unkempt woman ran in front of her, and she turned back as she ran, and pushed away from the crowd, not paying attention to the front, and suddenly ran into the horse.
The horse neighed and immediately became agitated. The coachman hurried to the reins, but he did not notice a stone being struck in the horse's leg. After the horse was hit, his leg hurt, and he was pulled tightly by the coachman, and the horse leaned and hit the other horse directly. This time it's messy, the two horses seem to be out of control, and they are about to step on the daughter-in-law of the Tan family in front of them. Xu Zhi secretly exerted his own strength, jumped on one of the horses, and after controlling the horse, he slapped the other horse that was unstable, and borrowed force to make it stand firmly.
"Good! Shopkeeper Xu is amazing! The people next to him shouted.
"Daughter-in-law of the Tan family, go back quickly, you can't run out like this!"
The young woman, who had accidentally bumped into the horse, had just fallen to the side, and now seemed to be awake and was whining and crying.
An old woman ran on the opposite side, and slapped her thigh when she saw this scene: "Shopkeeper Xu, what should my daughter-in-law do if she bumps into a bad one?" My golden grandson is counting on her! ”
This is blackmail! Xu Zhi resisted the urge to kill, he had something big to do, and he had no intention of entangling with people on the street. Fortunately, the horse didn't step towards the Tan family's daughter-in-law just now, otherwise I am afraid that I would not be able to leave this time.
The passer-by next to him couldn't look at it: "It was your daughter-in-law who hit the carriage of the shopkeeper Xu and startled the horse, if it wasn't for the shopkeeper Xu flying on the horse and controlling the horse, maybe even we would have suffered!" ”
"Yes, yes, you are too much, if your daughter-in-law has anything to do, it will also be injured by you!"
The people on the side of the road were accusing the old lady of the Tan family, her face changed, and she scolded: "It wasn't your daughter-in-law who hit her?" Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back! ”
Xu Zhi wanted to calm things down and send the other party two taels of silver, but things changed at this time.
I don't know where the stones came from, and they hit the legs of the two carriages behind one after another, and there were no people standing behind them, and the horses were restless, causing the carriages to sway from side to side. A figure quickly got into the last carriage, and the people in the carriage didn't have time to react, and they were stunned by the other party's palm wind.
The man quickly swept the wagon full of grain to make sure that no one was hiding, and then left quickly. He jumped directly onto the carriage in the middle, and the people inside seemed to feel that something was wrong, and he was greeted by a blade.
He dodged and kicked the other party's stomach, the carriage space was small, and the other party didn't have time to dodge, and directly hit the grain bag behind. He hurriedly stepped forward and took a quick glance, and saw that the carriage was indeed full of grain bags, the size of the grain bags was the same as ordinary, according to this extent, this carriage had no mezzanine, and it should not be able to hide people, so he turned around and left quickly.
It's just that the other party has already reacted, and the coachmen of the two carriages have already surrounded them.
In Cangzhou City, they have been entrenched in these meticulous works for a long time, and all parties have already taken care of them, but they didn't expect that someone would directly break into the carriage today.
For in the city, the coachmen did not carry swords, but they did not weaken their hands. Xu Zhi had long been paying attention to the movement here, and saw that the other party was alone, with a stubble of beard and a face that could not be seen clearly, wearing very ordinary clothes, his scalp was combed in a mess, and he was tied by a hairband at will.
Xu Zhi deliberately shouted angrily: "Where did the thief come from, he actually dared to come and steal food?" ”
There were two little girls from the Lan family in their car, whether the other party was a scout sent by Pingyang Mansion or someone from the Lan family, they had to beat each other to death with a stick and identify them as thieves. They want to fight quickly, and then quickly move the carriage away, as long as the little girl is sent away, killing people is a trivial matter, even if the other party is from the government, Xu Zhi gritted his teeth and decided that the coachman killed the thief.
The surrounding people were accustomed to seeing such a scene, and spontaneously gathered around to watch, but did not move forward.
Three coachmen quickly gathered around, two of whom had already pulled out the daggers.
The bearded man came up after he accidentally saw someone kidnapping two little girls in Pingyang City. And his intuition told him that this was not a simple human trafficking, and he didn't worry about keeping up.
The other party is actually talking back! And he actually understood!
In front of him, the carriage of the other party was carrying two little girls out of the city, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he walked quickly to the city gate and said to the soldiers: "There are spies in that carriage." Then he spent money on an old horse outside the city gate, and hurried to catch up.
It is strange that the officers and soldiers at the city gate chased after them so quickly. He also felt strange that even if the soldiers defending the city believed him, it stands to reason that they would not be able to mobilize so many men so quickly.
This group of officers and soldiers soon overtook him.
It's just that he found that when the officers and soldiers were checking a faulty carriage, they felt that something was wrong.
After a night of driving, he had lost his bearings. When the young woman crashed into the carriage, and when the shopkeeper Xu stepped in to restrain the carriage, he intuitively decided that the two little girls were in the carriage. This shopkeeper looks at Si Svenwen, his skills are so good, it's a little weird!
"There are two little girls in their car, and they are abductors!" The bearded man can't care about startling the snake! Without conclusive evidence, he can't say that the other party is a traitor. If there really isn't a little girl in the car...... He doesn't care so much! What if those two little girls are in the car!
Xu Zhi laughed: "Where did the thief come from to say crazy things, who doesn't know that I, Xu Mou, am a businessman, let's say, who sent you?" As I said, there will definitely be no increase in the price of food! ”
This sentence stands on the commanding heights of morality to clamp people's hearts!
Who doesn't know that the price of the rice shop in the shopkeeper Xu is the fairest, and he will never deliberately lower the price every time he collects grain!
The bearded man insisted on pointing to the carriage: "Do you dare to open the carriage, those two little girls are definitely in your carriage!" ”
The tallest coachman said, "What nonsense are you talking about? If everybody were to come and check our carriage, how much time would it take us to delay? You can't steal anything...... Could it be that you have an accomplice? Take the opportunity to check our wagons and steal something? After the coachman finished speaking, he deliberately looked around, and the people around him hurriedly retreated, no one wanted to be regarded as a thief's companion!
The other party has already built momentum, and I am afraid it will be difficult for me to achieve my wish! The bearded man pondered in his heart, and saw the dagger in the coachman's hand flash, and the sharp blade came straight at him.
The bearded man has now confirmed that the other party's carriage must be hiding a little girl! In the face of thieves, ordinary businessmen are nothing more than arresting and beating, and even feel that it is superfluous to send them to the yamen. Where would you want to kill someone directly on the street!
In the crowd, he could feel that different people were also observing, and the other party did not look like ordinary people, but the other party did not seem to intend to help.
The bearded man is one against three, and he has to pay attention to Xu Zhi's use of a secret weapon to attack the black hand, and he is invincible in front of him. Suddenly, the horses of the first carriage went out of control again, Xu Zhi immediately flew on the horse, and then shouted: "Let go, let ...... go" and ran away with the runaway carriage!
"Head, shall we help?" Two people in the distance were discussing. They are spies in the army, and they know the list of all the detailed works in Cangzhou City not long ago. Pingyang City has already launched a pursuit, and Cangzhou City wants to see who Xizuo is approaching, so Xu Zhi is kept.
"There should be important people in this car, otherwise Xu Zhi would not be in a hurry to run." The man pondered for a moment, "I'll send a signal to someone to intercept Xu Zhi, you go over and help him!" ”
Since the old nest that has been working in various parts of Youzhou City, Xu Zhi is still hiding people, and it is estimated that he is an important person! If it was really the daughter of a noble person in the car, after being taken away, her reputation would not be saved!
The bearded man was one against three, and Xu Zhi ran away with the carriage in front of him, and he was in a hurry and couldn't catch up. When he was distracted, he was also cut on the arm by the coachman's dagger.
"What for?" The spy took off his coat, revealing the official uniform he was wearing inside.
The three coachmen were inconvenient to do at the moment, so the wicked person sued first: "The official came just in time, this thief got into the carriage and stole things!" ”
When the bearded man saw it, he couldn't tell it clearly at the moment, so hurry up!
The official didn't have time to shout, he had already gotten into the crowd, and suddenly disappeared!
"Hey......" The official was secretly annoyed, and wanted to quietly ask him who was hiding in the carriage! And he ran away!
The matter had to be settled, and the official had to reprimand them and tell them to put away their daggers. He can't hold these three people alone, let alone startle the snake.
"Official, the shopkeeper's carriage hit my daughter-in-law, what should I do if there is anything wrong!" The old woman of the Tan family rushed over with an arrow step, pointed to her daughter-in-law whose face was covered with blood and said.
The official crossed his hands on his hips: "Yo, there are nails in the carriage of the shopkeeper Xu?" Why did you hit it and your face was covered with scratches? ”
The old lady of the Tan family will not feel embarrassed: "Oh, this disobedient daughter-in-law, I accidentally touched it." What if she was hit by a carriage and suffered internal injuries! ”
The people next to him couldn't listen anymore: "Hey, your daughter-in-law hit the carriage by herself, and the shopkeeper Xu hasn't settled accounts with you yet!" ”
"That is, if the horse hadn't been restrained by the shopkeeper Xu and rushed towards us, what should we do? You lost money to us? ”
"You'd better be nicer to your daughter-in-law! I was beaten and scolded like this by you every day, and I was scared to death, why did I get pregnant? ”
The old woman of the Tan family was besieged by everyone, and the official messenger also slipped away. "Oh, bad master, bad master...... How did you go? The voice of the old woman of the Tan family crossed the crowd, and it was simply a magic sound!
The official wiped the sweat from his head, but fortunately he ran fast. Damn, he'd rather deal with the Uighurs than reason with these unreasonable shrews.
I don't know if the boss didn't send someone to stop the carriage.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, the person in an alley, wasn't it the bearded man?
