Chapter 416: Mountain Bandits

"You don't have to worry about that. But I still have a horse with me, can I take this horse with me? ”

Gu Shendui was afraid that it was an extremely narrow mountain road, and he couldn't walk through it with his horses, and he needed to climb the mountain rocks with his bare hands, which would be troublesome.

Fortunately, nothing like this happened in the end, and the road was still allowed for horses to pass, so if it didn't work, it would be a waste of half a day's time at most.

Gu Shenwan paid half of the deposit first, which was the most basic reward, and when he arrived at the place, he would pay the rest of the remuneration.

Orion checked it, and it was indeed real money that did not deceive him, although it was only a small piece, but the amount was enough.

It's just that the silver has obviously been processed, and it is impossible to see where it came from, and because of its small size, it is easy to hide.

People who often walk outside naturally know that they should find a good place for important things, and hide them in order to hide them, but they have not considered taking something as a faΓ§ade, so that everyone knows that she has hidden her money in all corners.

Orion didn't warn, but instead had the meaning of sitting on the wall and watching.

"I'm going to leave today, the sooner the better, if you don't have anything to prepare, leave now, don't waste any more time."

Orion just took a few tools, opened the door and walked out.

Gu Shendui watched Orion find a handful of copper coins and hand them to the shopkeeper, and the two parted tacitly as if they had completed the transaction.

"What is this for? It was like they had bought and sold me. "It's kind of strange that his amount can't just be this kind of behavior.

Orion walked forward and explained the reason for doing that just now: "I see that you are not short of money, you must have never done business, this is just an intermediate fee, since he introduced you to me, it is natural that you should share a little money." ”

Although it was because he didn't have the time and couldn't spare manpower, such a good errand and easy way to make money was indeed recommended by him.

Gu Shenwan dispelled his suspicions, and went on to apologize: "Actually, I have been in contact with small businesses before, but I am alone and in a hurry, and I will inevitably be more vigilant when I encounter anything, please forgive me." ”

Orion didn't take this to heart at all, and this explanation is dispensable.

The two of them walked a long distance up the mountain road, and the deeper they went, the more they found that there were a lot of rocks here, and although there was a small path, it was a little too narrow.

And even in winter, the trail is obscured by a few large trees.

You can imagine how secluded the road would be if it was overgrown with weeds in the middle of summer.

After walking for a full three hours, Orion stopped to take a good rest, and let him be a little sideways, Gu Shendui didn't complain from beginning to end, although he didn't have much strength, and he started to gasp after walking for a while, but he did persevere.

By the time of the second break, which lasted longer, and it was getting dark, they made a fire and stopped to rest for a while.

"What are you going to do there, a young girl? Or are you alone and don't worry about problems? ”

Gu Shenwan smiled, "Actually, I am a doctor myself, don't look at my youth, my medical skills are still very good, and I can be regarded as a little famous." ”

"Now I just came out for some personal reasons, which is inconvenient to disclose."

Orion didn't ask any further, but ran a rabbit that he caught directly to the nearest water to dispose of it, and roasted it on the fire.

Gu Shenwan swallowed saliva as he watched from the side, and happily handed over the condiments in his pocket: "It's too wasteful to eat it directly like this, and the taste won't be much better, add some spices." ”

Orion didn't show any doubts, took the thing and spread it evenly, and continued to roast it on the fire.

It's just that I'm more sure that the employer this time is a rich man, at least his background won't be too low.

He was wondering if it could be a young lady from a big family.

But it looks a little different from the tolerable look, but like a girl in the village, she can take responsibility and consequences at a young age, and she will never cry or cry tired even if she grits her teeth.

Because they took a shortcut, Gu Shendui didn't know where they were now, and only when they found the official road could they confirm where they had gone.

There was a fork in the road ahead, and Orion did not hesitate to take the farther one.

Gu Shendui looked at those people who happened to be on a very smooth path in the direction they were heading: "Why don't you take this road to make it look wider, is it because it is the habitat of fierce beasts?" ”

"There are no real beasts there, only ruthless men known as bear blind men, and if you run into them, I can't guarantee that you will leave unharmed."

"For the sake of safety, it's better to stay away, your girl's house is in more danger, and I won't risk my life for you."

Gu Shendui instantly understood that this should be an inconspicuous bandit, although the government did not do anything, and did not bother to use troops to encircle and suppress it.

However, for the local rural people, it is also a hidden danger.

The locals are frightened, and it is natural that after all, they can be mountain bandits, most of them are lawless, they don't take human life as a matter at all, and they dare to kill, burn and loot.

"Boss, there is a new discovery, there are two people not far from our village."

"One of them is an old scar that had a conflict with us before, and the other one is dressed very thick and can't be seen clearly, but from a distance, it's probably a woman, and the key is that he is still leading a horse!"

How high the value of a horse is, they have naturally heard of it before, and some people have wanted to buy a few horses before, so as to be prestigious.

But this thing is expensive to buy, and it is very expensive to raise.

If they neglect to take care of it, it won't take long for them to die immediately, and they don't have much money in this small village, how can they be so directly for a little prestige.

"A girl's family still has a horse, and there are only two people in total, that old scar's ability is indeed good, but it is more than a step worse than all of us!"

"This is simply a fat sheep sent to the door by yourself!"

Whether the horse is kept or sold, it is obviously very valuable, and can the person who can lead a horse out on his own still lack money? Why can't you carry a little bit on your body.

"After this vote, I invite my brothers to go to that big restaurant for a good meal!"

"Boss is heroic, don't say much, I'll dry the wine in the bowl first!"

"I also have a cup of respect for the boss."

"This time it looks like you're going to make a fortune, haha!"
