Chapter Seventy-One: Halfway to Kill a Journey to Bite Gold
"Then I'm sorry for you!" Yan Xinglu spoke in front of Du Yiyi first, and the extra ten taels of silver were earned back here, and he naturally became a little angry in front of Du Yiyi.
"There's no trouble, it's not troublesome, wait a lot, maybe you can get a guest, I see that the two of you are in a hurry, so let's go quickly!" The coachman led the horse and walked ahead.
"Let's go!" Yan Xinglu saw that Du Yiyi, who was still in a hurry before, did not move, and immediately pushed it gently.
"I always felt that something was wrong!" Du Yiyi squinted at the carriage, the coachman was going to leave, but he suddenly wanted to send them to Aicheng for free, how could there be such a cheap thing in the world.
"If there's anything wrong, don't worry about it, this time we met a good person!" Yan Xinglu didn't think so much in his heart, this road is not easy to walk at first glance, if he takes the wrong road and delays the time, it will be too late to regret it.
"Is it really that I'm too careful?" Du Yiyi frowned and looked at it from afar, slowly moved his steps, and at the same time the hand hidden in the sleeve also held the dagger hidden in the sleeve.
Outside the city of Yaozhou is a large piece of wheat field, now it has passed the autumn harvest season, the fields are empty, here to go to those villages only one avenue is slightly wider, the road surface can also see the wheel prints, at a glance is the villagers usually use the cart and carriage to pull things left, except for this wide road, the others are only one person through the trail ridge, the twists and turns look like this, it is indeed impossible to find the road to Aicheng, the coachman walks slowly in front, the road is uneven, Sometimes the wheels of the carriage will sink into the mud puddle, and Yan Xinglu Du Yiyi will help push it.
After crossing this road, the coachman took Du Yiyi and Yan Xinglu into the village.
"My acquaintance lives in this village, and the two of you are hungry, do you want to have a meal before leaving?" The village is flat and spacious, and Du Yiyi, who is carrying his heart, pulled Yan Xinglu to the carriage, from these dilapidated houses and the clothes of the villagers, it can be seen that it is a poor village, and the villagers obviously rarely see outsiders in the village, they are all staring at Du Yiyi and Yan Xinglu vigorously.
Yan Xinglu was about to answer, but Du Yiyi pushed him with his elbow and gave him a look, and said first: "No need, just eat some dry food!" ”
"I haven't eaten for two days, so I won't delay eating some!" The coachman turned back and persuaded.
"We really have an urgent matter that can't be delayed, and I ask for my understanding!" Du Yiyi suddenly had doubts in his heart.
"Alright then, you two wait here, I'll leave the carriage and I'll look for you!" The coachman called out and stopped the horse.
"Good!"
The coachman huffed his waist and led the carriage away, Du Yiyi pulled Yan Xinglu to find a sheltered place to stand, and said in a low voice: "I have a silver hairpin here, you hide it!" ”
"Silver hairpin?" Yan Xinglu rubbed the silver hairpin that Du Yiyi secretly handed to him, and Huo Ran laughed: "This is the love token you gave me?" ”
Du Yiyi squinted at Yan Xinglu, and scolded in a low voice with a cold face: "Believe your mother!" You hide in your sleeves, hide it, don't lose it, even if I have a lot of heart, I have to take precautions, and when he shows us the way, you should be careful, if he has a bad intention, you will do it! ”
"Okay, since you're so cautious, I have to guard against it, when the time comes, I'll be a hero to save the beauty, do you want to make a promise?" Yan Xinglu teased and put away the silver hairpin.
"Sister Xu! I don't know who will save whom! Just his physique, just your physique, let's save your life! Du Yiyi secretly pinched Yan Xinglu, and the painful Yan Xinglu squeezed his eyebrows and gritted his teeth.
"I can't see that you are so ruthless as a girl! You have so much silver and silver tickets on you, you have to guard against it, don't worry, although I haven't studied martial arts, but this body is strong, and it is by no means a vicious scholar without the power of a chicken, I have never been out of the capital before, I don't know, it turns out that going out is such an exciting thing! ”
"In your opinion, this is exciting, in my opinion this is danger, the outside world is very exciting, and the outside world is very helpless!" Du Yiyi let out a long sigh, and covered the money bag in his arms uneasily. "You are penniless, I only have this silver, if it is gone, we will not even be able to eat, you used to be a good person, why do you feel black now that the more you look at it?"
"Black-bellied? What do you mean? Yan Xinglu frowned and pondered.
"He's coming!" Du Yiyi patted Yan Xinglu's hand and walked out of the eaves.
"The two of you are in a hurry, let's go now, when I first went to my friend's house, his daughter-in-law made pies, I heard that I had guests, so I wrapped a few, or hot, do you want to eat one?" As he spoke, the coachman opened the cloth bag he was carrying, and sure enough, it was steaming and fragrant.
After eating cold and dry baked cakes for two days, Yan Xinglu couldn't stand this temptation, and immediately reached out to get it.
Du Yiyi coughed dryly twice and secretly stepped on Yan Xinglu's feet.
"I waited anxiously for the eldest brother, I have already eaten a baked cake, but now I can't eat it, the eldest brother will eat first, if you are hungry, you will ask the eldest brother for a meal!"
Yan Xinglu Ai Ai withdrew his hand, nodded in agreement with Du Yiyi's words, and pushed the coachman's kindness.
"In that case, let's get up and hurry! Just leave the village and go southeast! The coachman took out a baked cake and ate it slowly, walking behind Du Yiyi and Yan Xinglu.
Du Yiyi Yan Xinglu gave a look, and Yan Xinglu immediately understood, and pulled the coachman to the front side by side.
"Where does the eldest brother's family live in the capital?"
The coachman chewed the baked cake in his mouth and said vaguely: "Hongming Street, it all depends on me to drive a carriage to solicit customers to support the family!" ”
"Big brother is really a good man." Yan Xinglu praised it twice, and then asked, "How long is it about to be from Aicheng?" ”
"Probably, about half a day! See if the foot strength is fast! ”
"Oh! Oh! That's it! ”
Yan Xinglu smiled.
Yan Xinglu pulled the coachman all the way, and the time passed quickly, Du Yiyi kept remembering the way he came, and sometimes he would leave marks with stones, if there was really a case, there would be no way to find it at that time.
This is a remote and narrow path, out of the village, side by side Yan Xinglu and the coachman on this road can only walk one after the other, this trail is no different from other trails, it is indeed impossible to find people, the coachman said, this is the villagers in the village here will walk, ordinary people will not come here, so the court did not pay to open the road.
This road is remote, you can't see pedestrians all the way, Yan Xinglu and the coachman talk and laugh in front of you, and it is also very harmonious, this trail leads to the official road to Aicheng, according to what the coachman said, it is half an hour's journey, and the pedestrians on the official road are not afraid, but this road is quiet and remote, Du Yiyi does not dare to let go of the dagger in his sleeve.
"Two more quarters of an hour will be on the official road." As he spoke, the driver pointed to another road outside the fork in the trail, leading the two men over.
"This time there is really Brother Lao, otherwise where can we find the direction of this tortuous road!" Yan Xinglu followed closely behind the coachman and looked at the two dirt bags on both sides of the path: "Big brother, why did you stop?" ”
These two dirt bags are higher than people's shoulders, and the road in front of them is also overgrown with weeds, and it seems that few people walk, seeing the coachman stop, Du Yiyi's hand holding the dagger can't help but tighten.
The coachman, who was nodding and smiling all the way, turned around, and there was an extra dagger in his hand. "Hahahaha............ I can't imagine that I can get such a large amount of fat with my hands today! Hahaha............"
"Big brother, what do you mean by this?" Yan Xinglu's body shrank and took a step back.
"What do you mean? Murder and plunder, fool! I didn't want to be a good person when I saw you two for a long time, it turned out that I also eloped out shamelessly, and today I will eliminate harm for the people and kill you adulterers and adulteresses, hahahahaha............ Instead of letting you go to have a good time with your silver, it's better to cheapen grandpa......" The coachman said, and approached Yan Xinglu Du Yiyi.
"You don't want to come nonsense, what kind of adulterer and adulteress, obviously you are seeking money and killing people, you, you ...... You don't die well, you lose your conscience, you, you ...... Don't come here, I'll call if you come again! Yan Xinglu took out the silver hairpin in his sleeve.
"Call, you call, no one will come here at all, and only you two fools will follow grandpa here, the fat sheep sent to the door today deserve to let you meet grandpa and me!" Aren't you on the lookout, chick? has ruined grandpa's good deeds again and again! Wait a minute, grandpa will make you look good, a watery poplar woman, I'm phew! ”
The coachman spat viciously at the yellow earth, and with a smile he took a few steps closer.
"Run, run!" Yan Xinglu pushed Du Yiyi who was outside with one hand, and the hand holding the silver hairpin trembled so much that he had no power to fight back.
Du Yiyi has always had a hunch that there would be an accident along the way, but he didn't expect that this accident would be such that the earth should not be called ineffective, even if he ran out of this dirt bag pile, there would be no one here to save them, what to do, what to do, what to do............
"Hahahaha............ Chick, obediently hand over your money bag Uncle Ben can spare your concubine's life, if you don't teach, see it, these two dirt buns are your burial place! ”
As he spoke, the coachman waved his dagger and laughed triumphantly.
As for Yan Xinglu's soft bun, it is definitely not possible to hit it hard, he has a knife in his hand, and he finally escaped, she doesn't want to give her life here, the only way at the moment is to outwit it, outwit it............ Yeah! Let him relax his guard first, and attack while he is unprepared!
Thinking about it, Du Yiyi clenched the dagger in his sleeve, but the person fell towards the yellow earth.
