It was very quiet along the way, and I rarely met people. I don't know if there have always been fewer people on this road, or because I feel that it has not been very peaceful recently, I don't go out much.

Fortunately, the main road is generally not far from the village, and you can always see some people not far away, but it is not quiet and scary.

Speaking of which, fortunately, the road to the county seat in Yunshui Town is wider than the ordinary road, and Ye Xi inquired in advance, and there are no other more spacious forks, so although she has not been to the county seat, she is not afraid of taking the wrong road.

"I've never been to the county seat before." Sister Qiao said with some excitement, "I really don't know how lively it is." ”

"I haven't been there either!" Ye Xi smiled.

This is the case in places where transportation is underdeveloped, even if Yunshui Town and the county seat are not far apart, many people in Yunshui Town have never been to the county seat in their lives.

Many people live in the small place of Yunshui Town with peace of mind all their lives, and some people don't even go to the town to catch the market.

Some people desperately want to go out and see the wider world, while others are willing to be trapped in a corner.

As he was talking, Ye Xi suddenly reined in his horse and frowned slightly at the blocked road in front of him.

A large tree was in the middle of the road, and she couldn't get past the horse.

But at this time of year, how is it possible?

When there is a lot of rain and strong winds, it is indeed possible for the trees on the roadside to turn over the roots.

However, there has been no heavy rain or strong winds in recent days, and the surrounding area does not look like a landslide.

"What's wrong?" Seeing the sudden stop, Yao Nu poked her head out in confusion, "Where did the tree come from!" It fell in the middle of the tree, and we don't know if we can move it away. ”

As he spoke, he looked around again, this place was remote, and it was far away from people's homes, and it was not easy to find someone to help.

"Stay in the car, don't get out." Ye Xi threw the reins to Sister Qiao, touched the dagger on his waist and got out of the carriage.

Is it really as my mother-in-law fears, even this road is not safe?

When Ye Xi approached the tree in the middle of the road, someone suddenly jumped out and pointed a knife at her.

"Quickly take out all the valuable things on your body, and the people in the carriage will get down, and we will have the carriage."

Ye Xi looked at the three people who jumped out, all covering their faces with black cloths. Although he tried to make a fierce and vicious appearance, his eyes flashed with a little timidity.

"We just went to the county to visit relatives, and we really didn't have anything of value on us." Ye Xi said lightly.

"You're not afraid of death, are you?" One of them put a knife on her neck and said in a vicious voice.

"I've always hated people pointing knives at me." Ye Xi slammed his hand out, snatched the man's knife in an instant, and tied the man's hands behind him as soon as he pulled the man's belt, making him unable to move.

Seeing this situation, the other two saw that Ye Xi shot so quickly, and they didn't dare to stay longer, so they turned around and wanted to run.

Ye Xi kicked a stone and hit the back knee of one of them, and he chased after the other person.

In just a moment, all three of them were still on the ground with their hands tied.

Ye Xi circled around the three of them, "Even if you guys reach out and reach out, you dare to come out and rob?" I've had a lot of experience. ”

"Woman, let us go! We really don't have any bad intentions! The three begged for mercy.
