Wang Lao Er said to the one-eyed Xiao Ming: "Brother Xiao Ming, why don't you also follow our Deputy Liu to Jiangnan to do errands, including food and lodging and handing out money." ”

Now is a troubled time, and it is a great thing for pie in the sky to eat and live and pay money.

"Can we do fast catchers too?" One-eyed Xiao Ming was very moved, and his accomplice was also very happy to hear it.

The second elder of the Wang family nodded and shook his head, "It's probably okay, but you have to ask our head about this matter, and our leader says you can do it, you can do it." "Three horses and five carriages went out of the gate of Pengzhou City.

The carriage of the Wang brothers was in the front, and Xiao Qi and Mu Ziqi were riding side by side in the back.

Immediately behind was Mu Ziqi's little servant Ah Mo, and then behind was a group of catchers recruited by the overpass to drive the remaining four carriages to follow.

There were still quite a few victims rushing to the outside of Pengzhou on the road, but the victims saw that the people who drove the carriage were wearing big knives, so they all avoided them automatically.

After a while, the carriage behind it scurried to the front like a wild horse that had lost its reins.

Xiao Qi "The carriage behind him is not allowed to overtake, so he obediently returns to his original position in the order in which he left the city, and whoever is disobedient will not be given food." ”

In other words, the flyover artists still attach great importance to food, and they obediently listen to Xiao Qi's instructions all morning.

At noon, everyone stopped outside a ruined temple to rest.

After Mu Ziqi got off the horse, he lay on the ground, "Ye has never ridden a horse for so long, it's really a crime, Ah Mo come and beat Ye on the back." ”

Ah Mo himself is good enough, and after getting off the horse, he sat next to Mu Ziqi with his legs dangling and tried his best to beat the young master's back.

Xiao Qi said: "I think your master and servant might as well take a carriage in the afternoon." ”

When eating, Mu Zixi was very disgusted, "What kind of dishes are you cooking, it's dark, don't eat it." ”

The rice was cooked by the Wang brothers and several other people, they were all entertainers, and they were hungry all the time, and none of them were good at cooking.

Hearing that the prefect disliked the food, the second child of the Wang family was a little embarrassed, "Please be considerate of the son, we will try to make the dishes better next time." ”

Ah Mo took out two packets of dim sum from his baggage, "Young master, you can eat this." ”

Mu Zichen took the dim sum and ate it in a big gulp, and Ah Mo stood aside drooling.

Xiao Qi sat down next to Mu Ziqi, picked up a piece of dim sum from his hand and put it in his mouth, and said to Mu Ziqi: "Actually, I also think that this meal is not delicious, my mother's food is delicious, I used to help my mother light the fire, or I will burn it at night." ”

"Anyway, your father is really relieved of you, and he won't even bring you two with the guards."

Mu Zixi raised his eyebrows, "My father is relieved of you, but not of me." But I'm not bad, I've been very fond of learning martial arts since I was a child, and my grandmother invited me to teach me martial arts from the number one master of our Great Xia Dynasty. ”

Xiao Qi: "Second Master Mu, you see that I don't have three heads and six arms, and there are so many catchers to follow, I can't ignore their safety, so you try your best to protect yourself." ”

After eating the snacks, Mu Ziqi picked up the carriages one by one, and saw two back baskets on the third carriage, which were full of wooden arrows.

smiled and said, "Little Seventh Girl, are you planning to continue practicing pot throwing on the way to Jiangnan?" No wonder the little seventh girl's pitching skills are so good, it turns out that it is because of diligence. ”

"Is there anything wrong with being diligent?"

"Well, this ......" Mu Ziqi felt that there was nothing wrong with being diligent, but since he was a child, his grandmother, Princess Yuhua, often told him

"Qi'er, don't be too diligent, don't look badly, people like us don't have to rely on reading to get ahead."

"Qi'er, don't be too diligent, your grandmother will find you the best guard, people like us don't need to suffer so much for practice."

……

That's why he's only now become a real half-jar, reading like a book, and martial arts.

Xiao Qi looked up at the sky, "It's not too early, Second Young Master Mu hurry up." ”

In the end, Mu Zishan chose the second carriage.

Before leaving, Xiao Qi said to everyone: "We have a heavy task to go to Jiangnan, we must not waste time, everyone should hurry during the day, and you can rest when it is dark and you can't walk." ”

The crowd quickly replied, "Got it, Deputy Liu." ”

Xiao Qi looked around at everyone, "You also have to protect the second young master of the prefect's family, and when he returns to Pengzhou City safely, he will definitely give you peanuts." ”

When everyone heard the golden peanuts, they were immediately full of vitality.

……

In the afternoon, as we passed near Tiger Roaring Mountain, seven or eight men in tattered clothes stopped the first carriage.

The one-eyed man in the lead shouted: "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, and I will pass by from here, and leave it to buy road wealth." ”

In the second carriage, Ah Mo was very excited when he heard the movement outside, and leaned into Mu Ziqi's ear and said, "Young master, listen, this must be a robbery, we heard this in the teahouse before." ”

The master and servant hurriedly lifted the curtain and looked outside.

I saw that seven or eight men had already fenced off the first carriage.

One of the men wore a black cloth over his left eye and held a large knife in his hand.

Ah Mo's eyes were shining, "Young master, this is really similar to what the storyteller in the teahouse said." ”

Mu Ziqi picked up his bow and said to Ah Mo: "We have a big deal, Ah Mo, you are serious, don't be smiling, hurry up and grab the weapon." ”

Ah Mo listened to Mu Zichan's words and hurriedly pulled out the dagger.

Xiao Qi had seen these seven or eight people from a distance, and when he saw that they had surrounded the first carriage after approaching, he was vigilant in his heart.

Xiao Qi looked back, and no one from the other carriages came around, so he jumped off the horse and put his ears on the ground, well, there were no other crowds nearby.

Xiao Qi stepped forward and walked into the encirclement, and found that none of the robbers in this group had noticed her, these people were really unprofessional.

The Wang brothers sat on the wheel of the first carriage, and they were still a little nervous to be surrounded by a group of strangers.

However, soon they saw that Deputy Liu's head had entered the encirclement, and the two brothers' hearts were suddenly much calmer.

The second child of the Wang family patted his chest, there were more than a dozen thieves, and only one of them had a big knife, and the others were unarmed, well, not afraid, not afraid.

The second child of the Wang family raised his head and looked carefully at the one-eyed man who was holding the big knife, and looked very familiar, have you seen it anywhere?

The second child of the Wang family was stunned for a moment, and suddenly pointed to the one-eyed and said, "You are Xiao Ming." ”

One-eyed Xiao Ming was also very excited, "Ah, I just said how can I be so familiar, it turned out to be the brothers of the Wang family." ”

The one-eyed man turned to his accomplices and said, "Brothers, put them all down, these two are my benefactors, and they once saved me in Jinling." ”

The others were very puzzled, and looked at each other, what did the boss tell us to put down, we don't have any weapons in our hands.

The eldest of the Wang family also jumped out of the carriage, and the two brothers and Xiao Ming hugged each other tightly.

After making out for a while, Xiao Ming touched the clothes of the Wang brothers and asked, "Look at the words on your clothes, they are quite familiar - I don't know the words, what is this written?" ”

The second child of the Wang family was extremely proud, and said with a puffed chest: "I don't know how to read, but I know that this is a fast catch, and our brother is catching fast now, and he will never have to break the boulder on his chest in the future." ”

The one-eyed Xiao Ming slapped twice on the back of the second child of the Wang family, "The brothers are amazing, I haven't seen you for half a year, and you are so happy to catch them." ”

As he spoke, he took out a handful of big money from his arms, handed it to the two brothers of the Wang family, and said with a red face: "What, you are my Xiao Ming's benefactor, I won't rob you, you can take the money with you on the road, and continue on the road." ”

The Wang brothers waved their hands and rejected the money handed over by the one-eyed Xiao Ming.

One-eyed Xiao Ming looked behind him, "How many cars are you sitting in?" I went and begged him. ”

The second child of the Wang family looked at Xiao Qi who was standing in the middle of everyone and asked, "Deputy Liu, when I left Pengzhou City, I heard that I still have to recruit fast arrests, I don't know if Xiao Ming can do fast catches?" ”

The one-eyed Xiao Ming and the others were stunned, what, the deputy catcher turned out to be a little girl, could it be a dream, and the others rubbed their eyes......

Xiao Qi stood in front of the one-eyed Xiao Ming and wondered, "You Tiger Roaring Mountain are just a few bandits?" ”

Xiao Ming drooped his head, "We are not from Tiger Roaring Mountain, we are on the road together, we were going to go to the south to beg for a living, I heard that the south has not suffered a disaster - what, passing by here, by the way, rob ......"

Xiao Qi's face was serious, "It's not right to rob, have you done anything else bad?" ”

One-eyed Xiao Ming hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, we definitely haven't done anything bad, we just can't survive, so we grabbed some money and cakes, and didn't dare to hurt anyone." ”

The one-eyed Xiao Ming led a group of people to take out all the things on their bodies and put them on the ground, which was dozens of big coins and a few cakes.

Xiao Qi: "Snatching cakes is also very serious, and at this time, maybe a cake can save several lives?" ”

"I shouldn't have grabbed the cake, I'm not a human ......" One-eyed Xiao Ming opened his bow left and right and slapped his face.

The crowd behind him covered their faces as they listened to the crackling sound.

Xiao Qi then asked, "Where did the big knife you carried on your shoulder come from?" ”

One-eyed Xiao Ming hurriedly threw the big knife to the ground: "It's not mine, this knife is not mine, it was picked up by us at the foot of Tiger Roaring Mountain, they can all prove it." ”

As soon as the words fell, the other people immediately nodded.

Mu Zichen jumped out of the carriage with Ah Mo.

Mu Ziqi glanced at the one-eyed Xiao Ming and his party, "How do you prove that you are not bandits from Tiger Roaring Mountain?" ”

The one-eyed Xiao Ming walked up to Mu Zichen and stared straight at Mu Zichen with his eyes, "This young master is so good-looking, like a fairy in the sky-"

It turns out that this is a group of fools, and they actually called the young master a fairy, Mu Ziqi felt that the word fairy sounded very uncomfortable, Lao Tzu is a pure master, a pure master......

Mu Ziqi snorted and said to Xiao Qi: "Pengzhou City is waiting for food to help, Xiao Qi girl, let's go to Jiangnan, time is urgent, let's hurry first." ”

Ah Mo knew that his young master was very disgusted with the word fairy, and he remembered that when he was in the capital, someone said that the young master was like a fairy, and he was given by the young master for two years.

So Ah Mo held Mu Ziqi's arm, "Young Master, let's hurry up and get into the carriage, let's ignore this group of fools." ”

Xiao Ming and the others were a little disappointed, didn't they want them?

Xiao Ming: "Deputy Liu, why don't we help us go to Tiger Roaring Mountain to suppress bandits." ”

Xiao Qi: "Be cautious about the suppression of bandits in Tiger Roaring Mountain, I have to discuss it with my Aunt Xi before I can decide, Mu Er Gongzi is right, time is pressing, let's hurry up and go to Jiangnan." ”

The one-eyed Xiao Ming looked at Xiao Qi pitifully, "Deputy Liu, can't we really be fast catchers?" ”

Xiao Qi glanced at Mu Zichen and saw that Mu Zichen did not resolutely oppose it, so he said to Xiao Ming: "Follow us first, and then I will see your performance and then decide whether to let you be a fast catcher." ”

The one-eyed Xiao Ming raised his face with five finger prints, "Deputy Liu's head, do you want to eat it?" ”

Xiao Qi nodded.

One-eyed Xiao Ming jumped up happily, "Deputy Liu, we will definitely behave well." ”

The one-eyed Xiao Ming touched the first carriage that the Wang brothers cared for, "The carriage is only owned by the rich and noble, I didn't expect that I could sit on it now." ”

Xiao Qi jumped on the horse and said to Xiao Ming: "You guys hurry up and get on the carriage and set off immediately." ”

"I haven't driven the carriage yet, good brother, let me catch it." Xiao Ming squeezed to the side of the Wang brothers.

Wang Laoer, "No, Xiao Ming, you go into the carriage first, and I'll teach you to drive the carriage when you rest." ”

Xiao Qi saw that Xiao Ming and the others were in a mess, so he ordered:

"Let the skilled hands drive the carriage first, don't grab the others first, let you practice when you rest, everyone must practice the skills of driving the carriage, and when you come back from Jiangnan, if you can't recruit people, you can only have one carriage per person."

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, everyone was still in a mess, and Xiao Qi had to use a killer move.

"Xiao Ming, a few of you hurry into the carriage, the carriage should be in order, the number of people in the queue will always be in the number, don't overtake indiscriminately, and those who disturb discipline will not be given dinner."

When it came to dinner, everyone was immediately honest.

Although they are in a hurry during the day, when it is dark and they can't walk, Xiao Qi will still allow everyone to relax and relax.

So after dinner, a few bonfires were lit, and the flyover artists appeared on the stage one after another.

Mu Ziqi looked at it with taste.

Ah Mo is very diligent, and he has been helping his young master beat his arms and legs when he watches the performance.

"Young master, although the conditions are more difficult outside, it's still good to see such wonderful juggling."

After everyone finished performing, Xiao Ming looked at the Wang brothers: "I remember that your brothers are good at breaking boulders in their chests. ”

The boss of the Wang family, "We didn't bring a hammer." ”

The second child of the Wang family is very glad that he doesn't have a hammer, he really doesn't want to be crushed by a big stone again, even if he doesn't want to dream.

When it was time to sleep at night, Xiao Qi asked everyone to gather all the carriages together, and they couldn't sleep on the carriage, and they also set up a simple tent.

Mu Ziqi looked at Xiao Ming and the others, and said to Xiao Qi: "These people are not necessarily reliable, wait until we are on duty separately, you are on duty in the first half of the night, and I am in the second half of the night." ”

Xiao Qi nodded, she felt that Mu Zili's arrangement was reasonable.

In the first half of the night, when Xiao Qi was on duty with others, a group of really murderous robbers came.

Fortunately, Xiao Qi's ear power is very good, and when he heard a strange noise from the ground, he asked the Wang brothers to wake everyone up.

As soon as he heard that a real thief was coming, several of One-Eyed Xiao Ming's men immediately fled.

The one-eyed Xiao Ming didn't leave, he said to Xiao Qi with some apologies: "Forgive me for the head catcher, the countrymen haven't seen the world, so they scared away." ”

However, the Wang brothers and others are still holding on for the time being, and after all, the people who are performing on these flyovers have seen the wind and waves.

Xiao Qi instructed everyone: "Extinguish all the torches, those who can hide in the carriage hide in the carriage first, and the rest that can't hide in the woods next to them." ”

Mu Zichen also wanted to help, Xiao Qi: "There should be dozens of people listening to the voice, Ah Mo, you guys hide in the car first." ”

However, Mu Zixi did not listen to dissuasion, the time was very urgent, Xiao Qi didn't bother to talk about him anymore, and came out directly with a basket of arrows.

Xiao Qi visually measured that there were at least two hundred arrows in this basket, which should be enough.

Mu Zixi: "Are you sure you can deal with thieves with this kind of unclustered wooden arrow?" ”

Xiao Qi: "Second Master Mu, do you have any arrows that can be used?" ”

Ah Mo took out the quiver, and there were only twenty or thirty arrows in the quiver.

This time, no one read this mountain or this tree, and before the thief came to his eyes, he had already released a rain of arrows.

An arrow almost hit Mu Zishan, but fortunately it was Ah Mo who helped him block it.

The arrow hit Mo's arm, and Momo was in pain and screamed.

Xiao Qi's eyes, even in the dark night, are still better than ordinary people.

But even with her eyes closed and just listening to the footsteps, she could tell that there were about fifty thieves.
