"Jinyao, don't worry, even if my father doesn't agree, I will come back and do this business with you. And the cards here were set up by my brothers, and they are people I can trust. As long as I don't speak, this card will always be there, and I can intercept all the people walking on this road, and I won't let anyone go. ”

This sentence is very true, as long as this card is there, the wedding convoy that Su Jinyao is going to intercept will not be able to pass.

Su Jinyao smiled, waved her hand and said, "Then there is Brother Lao Kefan." ”

Chu Kefan also waved his hand, and then raised his whip and urged the horse to run towards Heming Mountain.

Qiu Ying looked at Chu Kefan's departing back, and said with a smile: "What a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go." If it weren't for the master, you guessed it, no matter how I look at it, I think she's just a handsome and weak little brother. ”

Su Jinyao smiled and said, "When I pretend to be a man, I don't lose to her." It is said that women can overcome rigidity with softness, but in fact, women's inner rigidity (xìng) is not worse than that of men. ”

Qiu Ying nodded and said, "The state of mind of a hundred steels, around the finger soft (shēn) son; It is indeed not easy for a woman to bend and stretch and break out of the world. ”

Su Jinyao also breathed a sigh of relief with Qiu Ying's words, she also knew that it was not difficult for a woman to achieve the peak and the ultimate, but even more difficult.

But there are advantages to hard work, which can polish the will and make people stronger and more self-reliant.

Su Jinyao instructed again: "Now gather all our people and count the number of people." ”

Autumn Shadow nodded, waved at a black-clothed man behind her (shēn), and said, "Within half an hour, gather all the dark generals in this vicinity." ”

Qiu Ying told Su Jinyao that she divided her subordinates into two categories, one was dark and the other was bright.

Ming, it is those who are packaged and hidden in various places, these people are only responsible for finding out information and making secret contacts, and do not accept temporary transfers.

Dark, and divided into secret agents and secret generals.

Underpinned agents are those who spy on information, or who receive orders to deliver it. These people are also occasionally ordered to steal information, so they are called "dark".

The dark general is a killer and a dead soldier, and he usually doesn't show up easily if he is not summoned, but all of them are first-class martial arts and ruthless people.

Now, Autumn Shadow directly ordered all the "dark generals" to be summoned, which shows that the momentum of the battle is already very obvious, and he is ready to give it a go.

In less than an hour, Su Jinyao saw the secret generals who were ordered.

The number of people is not large, only about 40 people. None of them were black (shēn), black scarves covering their heads, they weren't covered with faces, they weren't made to look like killers on TV, they were all black (shēn).

This is also what Su Jinyao once said to Qiu Ying. It's not easy to be seen wearing a dark dress at night, but which of those true masters can only tell the situation around them by looking at them?

As long as you are a master, with your ears and ears, and your sixth sense is keen, you may be found even if you are wearing an invisibility cloak.

And isn't always one (shēn) black deliberately telling people: I'm not a good person, I'm a spy, I'm a killer, I can't see the light?

Therefore, the spies under Su Jinyao, or these people who were assigned by Qiu Ying as "secret generals", are also ordinary clothes, the kind that are easy to be ignored in the crowd.

Of course, all of these people (shēn) have a kind of flesh and blood, and there is a slight coldness in their eyes.

If it weren't for this killer person, he might have ignored their kind of "qi". But as long as you are the same kind of person, you can feel the sharpness and sharpness hidden by the other party (shēn).

Su Jinyao glanced at it, smiled at Qiu Ying, and said, "It seems that I can't practice at home." I glanced at it, and nearly half of them glared back at me. If this is a cautious and cautious person, he will immediately notice the suspicion. If your target had found out, it would have run away. ”

Qiu Ying nodded and said, "What the master said is that since it is called a dark general, it is necessary to pay attention to the word 'dark', and it is also necessary to restrain the murderous aura (shēn). I'm going to train hard. ”

Qiu Ying still clearly remembers that after she left with Su Jinyao from the Red Sleeves Fang, she always felt that Su Jinyao was just a little capable little girl.

Only contribute, not spoils

However, it was such a pretty little girl (jiāo) who suddenly let Qiu Ying see the "murderous aura" she released one day.

The shock of that moment made Qiu Ying understand what it means to hide and what it means to be "evil".

At that moment, Autumn Shadow realized that what she saw was no longer a teenage girl, but a blood-stained blade. It's like an Asura from hell.

Now what Su Jinyao asks for is also the concealment of his subordinates. Blending in with the crowd without revealing it is the real "dark".

These forty secret generals, together with the people who had followed Su Jinyao and them before, a total of more than fifty, stood in a phalanx. Although it is not a formation, it looks quite orderly at a glance.

Su Jinyao nodded and said, "The momentum is not bad." But when you do it for a while, try not to kill, disarm, uniform, and tie it up. ”

Qiu Ying agreed, turned her head and asked those people, "Did you hear the master's orders clearly?" ”

"Yes." Everyone agreed in unison, quite imposing.

I saw a faint gray in the sky, the last dark color before dawn. Immediately, the gray turned dark red, and the glow jumped out.

Su Jinyao sighed, glanced in the direction of Heming Mountain, shook her head, and said to Qiu Ying: "Let's go, it's not too difficult to deal with more than three hundred." ”

Qiu Ying nodded and smiled, and said, "Master, don't worry, it's not a problem for my people to be one against ten." ”

"Okay." Su Jinyao waved her hand, and everyone stood behind her.

When he was about to set off, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in front of him, the sound was very strong, the ground trembled slightly, and many people could be seen.

Su Jinyao was stunned and looked back at Qiu Ying. Qiu Ying said directly: "Master, wait a minute, I'll take a look." ”

However, Qiu Ying hadn't run far before she saw smoke and dust rolling all the way, and it was Chu Kefan who was running at the front on horseback. And after her (shēn) was the fifty cavalry of the Crane Ming Mountain.

"Jinyao, I'm here, it doesn't seem to be too late." Chu Kefan urged the horse to rush to Su Jinyao, and said with a smile: "There are another hundred infantry, waiting for orders in front." ”

Su Jinyao smiled and said, "Okay, let's do a big job, this deal is eaten, I guarantee that you will not suffer." ”

Chu Kefan nodded and said, "The thing is still trivial, I'm afraid that I'll be late and lose my (qíng) meaning with you." ”

Su Jinyao turned to Qiu Ying and said, "Let your dark generals disperse and sneak into the village to ambush you." Waiting for your secret whistle, the inside should be closed out. ”

Autumn Shadow received the order and immediately ordered to go down. The forty dark generals who had gathered together before immediately performed light skills and quickly dispersed.

Before Chu Kefan arrived, Su Jinyao wanted to rush over directly with these people. I hope to be able to catch the other party off guard and rob the twenty carts of things directly.

Now with Chu Kefan's 100 infantry and 50 cavalry, no matter how he fights, he can win, and his momentum can also suppress the opponent.

"Let's go." Su Jinyao beckoned Chu Kefan to set off together, and everyone gathered together and followed behind Su Jinyao's (shēn).

A short distance further on, I saw three checkpoints set up between the main roads.

The front and back two are wooden planks nailed with iron thorns, standing in the middle of the road to bluff. A large stone was placed in the middle of the road, blocking the rushing people or horses.

And in the grass under the roadbed, there are also triplocks and steel spikes to prevent people from bypassing the sides instead of walking on the road.

In this way, it can indeed block a lot of people. At least the twenty carriages with the dowry would have to make some effort to pass.

When Su Jinyao and Chu Kefan wanted to pass through here, someone had already removed the planks at both ends. The two largest stones placed on the pavement are actually held by ropes (tào), tied to two oxen (shēn) respectively.

Just drive the oxen in both directions, stagger the distance between the two rocks and the front and back, and you can free up a path for a carriage to pass.

After Su Jinyao, Chu Kefan, and Qiu Ying passed through here with people, the cattle herds pulled the stones back again, blocking the road again.

After running through this clip, Su Jinyao looked back and said to Chu Kefan with a smile: "You guys are still professional in this roadblock. ”

Chu Kefan also smiled, squinted a pair of clear watery eyes, and said: "Relying on the mountain to eat the mountain, but also sitting on the mountain and eating the mountain." The Heming Mountain known outside is a team of 350 people, but these 350 people don't count food and clothing, which one is not as young and old? In total, there are more than 1,000 people to feed. Therefore, I often set up a card on this road to collect some money to buy the road. ”

This road is indispensable for merchants and freight carriages entering Beijing, and the money collected to buy the road must be a lot.

However, as long as you don't endanger the people, don't kill people, and pay the money to buy the road and let you go, it's not a serious crime.

Even some businessmen have to take this road often, and will bring gifts and heavy money to Heming Mountain to worship the mountain, hoping that their passing vehicles can pass in time and take more care. There are a few such large households, which can be regarded as a fixed income.

Walking further, I saw the hundred infantry that Chu Kefan said. The clothes are all the same, they look neat, and there is a "crane" embroidered on the front of everyone's clothes.

Su Jinyao told Chu Kefan about the village they were going to, and Chu Kefan laughed when he heard it, and said, "It turned out to be this fat sheep." ”

Su Jinyao asked rhetorically, "You know? ”

"Anyone who has a horse team to cross the mountain, how can there be anything that we don't know about Heming Mountain?" Chu Kefan said: "However, it doesn't look like an official car, we should be a big family somewhere to marry their daughters to the capital, so we bought so many dowries." ”

Su Jinyao said: "It's really not the official car of the Cloud Dome Country. To tell you the truth, this is the wedding horse team of the princess of Tianze Kingdom. I'm going to rob this dowry. ”

"What, you're in a hurry to get married?" Chu Kefan asked deliberately.

Su Jinyao pursed her lips and smiled, "Isn't it okay?" I don't marry you because I have someone in my heart. My family is poor, and I don't collect my own dowry, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to marry a good family. ”

Chu Kefan pretended to be very surprised, and said, "What about the person you are in a hurry to marry?" In my opinion, ordinary wealthy families may not be able to afford to marry you. ”

Su Jinyao stretched out her hand from the horse, pushed Chu Kefan, and said, "Okay, don't talk too much, follow me to work." And after doing this vote, I'm afraid I won't be able to give you much benefit. These are all dowries that I have set aside. ”

Chu Kefan hurriedly shook his head and said, "Since you want to rob the dowry, you clearly hate to marry." I'm just going to give you a boost, and I won't follow you to share the spoils, right? Rest assured, Heming Mountain is not short of so many cars. ”

Necessary means

Su Jinyao also arched her hand and said, "Since this is the case, thank you Brother Kefan." ”

Chu Kefan said in a low voice: "However, since it is the official family's car and the people of Tianze Kingdom, then be careful and try not to harm people's lives." If the government really investigates, we will also be in trouble. ”

Su Jinyao nodded and said, "I've explained this before, my people are fine, and they all have accurate heads under their hands." It's your people, don't be in a hurry, swing a knife and stab. ”

"Of course not. We have rules in Heming Mountain: collect money but not life. After Chu Kefan said this, Su Jinyao also laughed together.

Now it seems that this trip is not like a robbery, as if it was a visit to someone's house.

Autumn Shadow found out that the small village was not far from Heming Mountain, and it was a small place that didn't even have a name.

And Tianzeguo's twenty carriages and more than 300 people entered the village, almost all the people in the village.

Most of the people in the village ran out of the village to make do for the night.

Although the family is occupied, it is not small to see the other party's origins, and it is impossible to provoke it. Second, the people also agreed to leave at dawn, and they would give money for the night.

These men stayed in the village for one night, and promised to give the whole village twenty taels of silver. In this way, a family can get more than five dollars of silver, which is a lot of money.

Early in the morning, those who give the wedding start (tào) the cart, feed the horses, and prepare for the road.

The people in the village are also ready to go home, pack up the house, and wait for the village chief to hand out the money from door to door.

But at this moment, a group of people suddenly rushed over, led by a woman with an eye patch, and actually stopped the villagers.

With sharp eyes, he saw Chu Kefan behind him at a glance, and shouted: "It's the little master of Heming Mountain who is here, don't move, the masters of Heming Mountain won't hurt us." ”

This village is at the foot of Heming Mountain, and although they often see people coming down from the mountain to intercept them, these people have never looted their village, and they have not allowed outsiders (sāo) to disturb them, which can be regarded as a favor to them.

If it is a good harvest year, Heming Mountain will also send people to the village to collect grain, the price is the same as that of the market, and there are horse-drawn carriages directly to the mountain, so they don't have to pick up grain to sell in the market, which is also a good thing.

Therefore, as soon as the others heard that it was from Heming Mountain, they were not afraid, and some of them arched their hands towards Chu Kefan, looking honest and close.

In fact, in the eyes of the people, there is no bandit or bandit, as long as they don't harm the people, give them benefits, and can live in peace, they are not bad people.

Chu Kefan saw that these people knew her, and he didn't shout in words, but said loudly: "Heming Mountain has to make a deal, you don't have to be afraid, it's good to stay here for a while." We went into the village to collect the goods and came out, and we did not kill anyone, set fires, and rob your things. ”

After listening to Chu Kefan's assurance, these people really put their minds at ease, and some people simply sat down on the spot.

When Su Jinyao saw it, she wanted to laugh but had to endure it. Nodding at Chu Kefan, he rushed in with the centaurs.

The 100 infantry were responsible for surrounding the village. Several people were holding the chain locks brought by the mountain, and the chains had barbs and barbs, blocking the main roads and paths leading to the outside of the village.

Qiu Ying took the dozen or so men and the fifty cavalrymen of Heming Mountain followed Su Jinyao and Chu Kefan's (shēn) and went straight to the big poplar tree in the middle of the village.

There is a gong under the big poplar tree, which is usually sounded when the villagers are gathered. Whoever needs help with an urgent matter, or the village chief has news released, they all ring this.

Chu Kefan made a look, and a cavalryman jumped off his horse, ran over and struck the gong twice.

After a while, a dozen or so villagers who had stayed in the village last night also ran out. Seeing that it was Chu Kefan, he arched his hand and ran straight out of the village.

Now, there are only 20 carts left in this village, and the 300 soldiers of Tianze Kingdom who escorted the dowry.

When the gong was first sounded, the people of Tianze Kingdom were still busy packing up their things and preparing horses for the carts.

It wasn't until I saw that the aborigines in the village had run away that I came back to my senses. It was only at this time that I found that the roads in the village were also blocked, and in the middle of the village, the dozens of horses seemed to be menacing.

"Who are you?" A leader ran out and went straight to the horse of Autumn Shadow Road.

Maybe it's because Autumn Shadow wears an eye patch and has a scar on her face, so she thinks Autumn Shadow is the boss here.

Autumn Shadow didn't say anything, just threw a bundle of hemp rope to the ground and pointed at the leader's (shēn).

"What do you mean? Who are you? The leader was even more confused, and when he looked back, he saw that he (shēn) was his own soldier, and he really didn't understand what the hemp rope that Autumn Shadow had dropped meant.

Qiu Ying said coldly: "Tie up your people." ”

After Qiu Ying finished speaking, her subordinates, as well as Chu Kefan's cavalry, also threw a bundle of hemp rope from their horses.

It is estimated that dozens of bundles of rope are more than enough to tie these three hundred people.

Although the leader was stunned, he would definitely not be obedient.

What's more, they were sent by Tianze Kingdom to give the princess a dowry, if they hadn't been robbed by bandits in the capital yet, they would have been derelict in their duties, if this matter spread out, it would seem that the soldiers of Tianze Country were useless? I can't even keep the princess's dowry.

Therefore, the leader glanced at the rope on the ground, immediately drew a long knife from his waist, and rushed towards Autumn Shadow with a shout.

Of course, Qiu Ying understood that there was no battle that was so easy to solve, otherwise Su Jinyao would not have summoned so many people to carjack.

So, when the leader rushed over with a long sword, Autumn Shadow pulled out a sword from the saddle, slammed his feet on the stirrups, and flew straight up from the saddle, and when he fell, he raised his sword and slashed off the leader's sword-holding arm.

Su Jinyao said not to kill people, but the means of killing chickens and monkeys must be used.
