The old man frowned and withdrew his gaze, he faintly felt that something was wrong, but the other party looked calm, and he really couldn't see anything.

I could only temporarily suppress the strangeness in my heart, take Xiao Tong's hand, and stride out.

Jiang Yin followed with a smile on crutches.

There are naturally unreasonable places, for example, although we know the weather in this area, how can it be accurate to the second?

It's just this, Jiang Yin naturally won't tell anyone.

At the beginning of the sunny day after the rain, the pale yellow morning light dyed the mountains and forests, and the old ruined temples gradually faded away behind them.

……

Among the 36 counties of the Dayong Dynasty, Yu County sits on the important land of Gyeonggi and has the most different status. Merchants come and go, since ancient times, it is the world of goods.

The only obstacle is the Xiaoyang Mountain boundary that stretches for hundreds of miles on the southeast border, the terrain is dangerous, and it is inconvenient to come and go, so there are few merchants passing through.

However, there is an exception, which is the world's first business, Qili Commercial Bank.

Every seven miles, there must be a business!

Although it is a lie, it is also extraordinary.

At this moment, on the only official road in the territory of Xiaoyang Mountain, a convoy of hundreds of people camped and rested. A hundred meters away on the flat ground is hung high with the word "seven", and the people below are crowded, and all kinds of accents are mixed, all of which are farmers and mountain people who have traveled thousands of miles from the Xiaoyang Mountain boundary to pass the goods.

The clerks of the trading house stood on both sides of the west entrance of the flat land with a book in one hand and a pen in the other, inspecting the goods one by one with expressionless faces.

Zhao Shan and the others, who were in a hurry all the way and didn't even care about the meal, finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

In the end, it caught up!

After lining up and handing over the goods, the few people who got the silver money suddenly burst into laughter. Fortunately, their rainproof measures are good, the medicinal materials are not damaged at all, and the price given by the firm this time is also fair.

Next, you can go to the other side to take a look at the good goods brought by the trading house. There's a lot of bread and everything. This is also the happiest thing for them every time they are decorated with currency!

"I didn't steal, this is ours!" At this moment, a hurried voice came.

Zhao Shan, who heard the movement, turned his head, and then his face changed. At this moment, the old man was surrounded by the guards of the trading house.

"What's going on?" Zhao Shan hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"Are you their head?" One of them, who appeared to be the captain of the guard, asked rhetorically.

"Yes, yes!" Seeing the other party's complexion, Zhao Shan's heart was also a little panicked.

"Take it away!"

"What?" Zhao Shan's heart was suddenly shocked, but fortunately, his reaction was also fast, and when he saw the caravan guards who came with the momentum of encirclement and suppression in an instant, Zhao Shan immediately pulled out the firewood knife on his waist.

The rest of the people did not lag behind, and they took out things that could defend themselves, although a few people were small people in the mountains, seeing such a behemoth as Qili Commercial Bank, it was instinct to panic in their hearts. But walking around in this Xiaoyang Mountain realm all the year round, there are always some means of self-defense, and I have really been forced to the extreme, and I can't say that I have to rush bloodily.

As long as they break out of the encirclement and enter the mountains and forests, even the big trading houses will not be able to catch up with them.

"The world-famous Qili Commercial Bank, is it possible to deceive people and eat black?" Zhao Shan roared angrily.

For small people like them, the best way to deal with it right now is to gather a crowd and make a big deal out of it.

Sure enough, with his roar, it immediately attracted everyone's side eyes, and the crowd was in turmoil.

Seeing this, the captain of the guard also instantly sank his face, and he actually touched the hard ballast. However, the two sides are not quite equal in the end, although the guards feel tricky, they are not frightened, and the situation in the field is about to erupt.

"Get out of the way!"

Just as the two sides were tense and confronted, the crowd was unexpectedly pushed out of the way, "What's going on?" ”

The person who came was nine feet tall, with a solemn face, and the muscles of his whole body were tense, and standing there made people feel under pressure, and it was actually the commander of the guard, Guan Tie.

But what made Zhao Shan even more shocked was that Guan Tie was followed by a person with a smile on his face, looking like a rich old man.

It was indeed the first time I had seen him, but Zhao Shan couldn't be mistaken, it was the dark pattern deep coat unique to the steward of the Qili Commercial Bank, which meant that this person was the biggest talker in this caravan.

How could such a big man be here, so what exactly did they commit?

Just now, when the incident happened suddenly, he forgot to ask the old man about the situation, and he could only look anxiously at the moment.

On the other side, the captain of the guard, who heard the questioning, immediately approached to report.

After listening to what happened, Guan Tie frowned and said, "Bring something." ”

The captain of the guard immediately handed over an object, and under the sunset, the original silver longevity lock was also dyed yellow.

The moment he saw that object, Zhao Shan suddenly exclaimed, "Longevity lock? It's the old man! ”

Not only Guan Tie at this time, but even Mo Guangshan, the steward of the commercial bank standing behind him, looked up at him. Seeing the eyes of the two of them looking at each other, Zhao Shan's throat suddenly tightened.

Mo Guangshan, the chief steward of the caravan who was originally standing behind with his hands behind his back and a smile, reached out and took the longevity lock, and then walked forward slowly. "How did you get this longevity lock?"

Zhao Shan didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "My lord, this longevity lock was indeed not what I was waiting for, but last night an old man took this lock and exchanged some dry food with us. ”

"And where are they now?" Mo Guangshan continued to ask.

"I didn't go with us, I'm afraid I'm still in that broken temple, or I went somewhere else." Zhao Shan replied fifteen-ten.

"Broken temple?" Mo Guangshan asked.

"Yes, it's in this barren mountain in the realm of the Xiaoyang Mountains." Zhao Shan Road.

"If I let you lead the way back, will you still find it?" Mo Guangshan said.

Hearing this, Zhao Shan's face was embarrassed, and he said truthfully: "I'm afraid it's not good, the terrain of Xiaoyang Mountain is strange, and the broken temple is even more hidden, and it is also luck for us to get to that place, but it is difficult to find it again." ”

"I see!" Mo Guangshan nodded.

Seeing that the other party was kind and kind, Zhao Shan relieved himself. Seven miles of the firm pass through here every year is not much, the original steward we are fortunate to have seen a few times, is a baht must be a character, I did not expect to meet this time is a kind, reasonable.

Seeing that the matter was explained clearly, Zhao Shan bowed with his hand.

Mo Guangshan let out a long sigh and turned to leave.

"Grab it!"

Zhao Shan, who suddenly heard this, didn't react at first, but when he saw the guards around him move, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of shock. "Steward, what do you mean?"

"If you steal something, you have to catch it!" Mo Guangshan turned his back to Zhao Shan and the others and replied.

"Bloody mouth!" Zhao Shan and his entourage instantly opened their eyes with anger.

However, at this moment, no one listened to his explanation, and the guards of the trading house only acted according to orders, and the scene was chaotic. The two sides really started to fight, and Zhao Shan realized the shallowness of his own and others' ideas.

It's simply irresistible!

Guan Tie stood aside and took a look, then withdrew his gaze, walked two steps quickly to keep up with Mo Guangshan, and said, "Don't worry about things, depending on the situation, I'm afraid that these people really didn't steal the things." ”

Mo Guangshan put the longevity lock in his hand and raised his eyes to look at him, "This is nature!" ”

"That ......"

"And I'm going to arrest them?" Mo Guangshan tugged at the corner of his mouth, "No matter what, it is a fact that the old man disappeared with a fool, and the secret letter from above asked us to escort people back to Beijing." Now that the two of them have disappeared for a day and a night, our caravan can't wait forever! With these people, you can make a difference. ”

"But......" Guan Tie's expression was slightly different.

"Not so much, but there are so many twists and turns. The origin of those two people is inexplicable, although there is an explanation from above, but they are vague. Now in this inaccessible Xiaoyang Mountain realm, who knows whether it is dead or alive. For us, it's only right to make a mistake on this trip! Mo Guangshan smiled.

"But...... Over there......"

"Huh?" Mo Guangshan realized that something was wrong, and turned his head to look at him.
