Guangxian is hundreds of miles away from the capital, there is no highway, no high-speed rail, no airplane in this era, the traffic depends on the transfer of horses, regardless of the influence of the weather, it takes at least three days from the capital to Baisha Town, Guangxian County.

Because he was going to go far away, Chen Chao spent 10 points of positive energy to exchange for ten life-sustaining pills from the old man. According to the speculation that a life-sustaining pill can last for three days, there is at least a month of time to handle the case, which is theoretically enough.

Chen Chao packed his bags, said goodbye to Aunt Liu, rented a horse with An Pingyuan at the post station, and embarked on the trip on the same day.

During the journey, it was inevitable to sleep in the open air, and it also made Chen Chao understand that it is not easy to walk the rivers and lakes, and it is not like a child's play like a young chivalrous woman played in a costume drama, all of them have red lips and white teeth, and they are so well maintained.

As the old saying goes, you can literally understand the difficulties of running the rivers and lakes.

After walking in the wind and rain for two days, Chen Chao and An Pingyuan stopped at noon under the big tree on the side of the official road to rest temporarily, let the horses eat a little grass, and slow down their feet.

Chen Chao took off his cloak, rested on the big tree and knocked it off, shaking off a large patch of dust. There is no way to have a lot of dust, there is no asphalt road in this era, the official roads are all dirt roads, after being exposed to the sun, and then through the chariots and horses, the wind blows, the dust naturally rises everywhere, and the source of the wind and dust comes from this.

Chen Chao took out the jade jue he was carrying with him and glanced at it, and saw that the color of the jade was already yellow, so he took out a life-sustaining pill, and swallowed it orally with the water in the skin bag.

"Brother An, we've been traveling for two days, how long is it from here to Guangxian?" Chen Chao drank water and asked An Pingyuan at the same time.

An Pingyuan was nibbling on a piece of dry food, unscrewed the lid of the wine jug, took a big sip of wine, wiped his mouth and said, "It's almost over." If it goes well, you will be able to rush to Guangxian in the afternoon, and you will definitely be able to stay at the inn in Baisha Town before dark. ”

Chen Chao nodded.

An Pingyuan glanced at Chen Chao, and then said: "The business of being a bounty hunter requires walking the rivers and lakes all year round, and it is inevitable that the boat will be tiring. ”

Chen Chaofang was about to say something, but at this time, a gust of wind rose, and there was a tendency to get bigger and bigger, and the branches and leaves fluttered, and the dust was filled.

An Pingyuan looked up at the dark clouds that were gradually gathering, and said to Chen Chao: "It seems that it is going to rain, let's find a place to shelter from the rain first." ”

As soon as the two of them retrieved the grazing horses and came to a small pavilion for shelter, the rain fell with a loud noise.

The rain lasted for a long time before it stopped.

The two got on their horses and went on the road again, but they saw that the road was muddy, and there were puddles full of water in some places.

As he walked for a distance, he suddenly saw a carriage stranded on the road in front of him, and a few people were busy around the wheels.

Chen Chao and An Ping were curious, and stopped their horses to take a look.

It turned out that the wheels of the carriage had sunk into a puddle of mud, and the driver had no tools to take advantage of, and he was so busy for a long time that he was covered in mud and water, and he couldn't get the wheels out.

Chen Chao and An Pingyuan are the kind of goods who want to draw a knife to help each other when they see an uneven road, they smell the same, and they use today's Internet buzzword as 'Our Lady', and it is impossible to abandon them when they encounter difficulties. So, the two immediately dismounted and came to help.

"Oops, clumsy, why hasn't it been done for so long? I didn't pay you to come and eat. The man in the car kept complaining, pointing fingers at the hard-working guys.

"Yes, yes, it's going to be done right away! Someone has come to help. "Dude, I made amends.

At this time, Chen Chao also saw the appearance of the person in the car, and suddenly shouted: "Hey? Isn't this Boss Tong?! ”

That's right, the little old man sitting in the carriage is the boss of the Tong family's firm, who was slapped in the face by Chen Chao when he bullied the weak and tried to buy Aunt Liu's mansion before.

Boss Tong took a look, and immediately recognized Chen Chao, and hurriedly lowered his posture and said: "It turned out to be Mr. Chen, you, the old man is clumsy, and he has lost his welcome." ”

Chen Chao smiled and asked, "Boss Tong, where are you going?" ”

Boss Tong replied: "I took my niece to visit an old friend's house in Baisha Town, but I didn't want to be caught in the rain halfway, and the carriage fell into a mud puddle, which made Mr. Chen smile." ”

Mrs. Tong heard the voice, lifted the curtain to look outside, and after seeing Chen Chao, she immediately said happily: "Mr. Chen, is it really you?" You have a wonderful hand to rejuvenate, last time you helped me and my lord recover their appearance, and we didn't take a penny, and we haven't had time to thank you yet. ”

Mrs. Tong didn't see clearly that it was Chen Chao who got the foot at the time, and then her husband didn't tell her for some reason, so Mrs. Tong has always regarded Chen Chao as a benefactor.

Although Chen Chao has always been thick-skinned, he can't help but have a little fever at the moment, so he casually prevaricated and said, "Mrs. Tong, please get out of the carriage first, reduce the weight of the body, and we can get the wheels out of the mud pit." ”

"Hey, okay, Mr. Chen, you are really a good person, you can meet you anywhere you encounter difficulties. Yuhan, let's get off first. Mrs. Tong was full of praise and led another young woman in the carriage out of the carriage.

Chen Chao glanced at the young woman, and saw that the woman was at the age of bloom, no more than twenty years old, not tall, very delicate, very kind of small jasper, and her appearance was quite outstanding.

When Boss Tong saw Chen Chao looking at the woman, he introduced beside him: "Mr. Chen, this is the old niece Du Yuhan." Yuhan, come and meet Mr. Chen. ”

Du Yuhan walked in front of Chen Chao, bowed slightly, and bowed his head to say hello: "Little girl Yuhan, I've seen Mr. Chen." ”

Chen Chao nodded and returned the salute, which can be regarded as a greeting.

At this time, An Pingyuan shouted over there: "Brother Chen, come and help!" ”

"Okay!" Chen Chao responded and rushed over to help.

Chen Chao, An Pingyuan, and Boss Tong's buddies, several people worked hard together, and finally moved the wheels of the carriage out of the mud pit.

"Yes, yes, a little help, a little help and a new 20 points of prestige, stretch out your hand, move your feet to get the benefits, don't be in vain." Chen Chao secretly checked the income with the five-color rope on his wrist, and his heart was full of joy.

"Mr. Chen, and this brother, thank you so much, thank you two so much, a little meaning, let you two buy some tea to drink." Boss Tong said as he took out the ocean and gave it to Chen Chao and An Pingyuan.

But the two insisted.

During the prevarication, An Pingyuan suddenly saw Du Yuhan who was staying on the side. His expression immediately changed suddenly, and he couldn't help but step forward and grab her hand, and called, "Ruyi, I finally found you." ”
