Chapter 2: The Caravan
A year later
In the depths of Dagou Mountain, a team of men and horses rushed in the blizzard, and they were the well-known people in this area who were not afraid of death - the horse gang.
The caravan has a history of more than 800 years in the capital. As long as they have money and do not violate benevolence and morality, they will accept any job.
"This lump is colder than our northeast, his grandfather's."
"Who says it's not, Lao Tzu has lived in the capital for more than 30 years, and he has never encountered such a cold day."
A middle-aged man who looked like a scholar turned his head and said, "Niu Cannon is the first thing you two talk about, and you are crooked for a day, and there is no end."
As soon as the middle-aged man spoke, the two of them fell silent, they knew that this was not a scholar, but a ruthless character.
More than a dozen people rode horses and began to enter the wind-stopping ridge of Dagou Mountain, in this area, the wind was fierce all day and night, coupled with the heavy snow, it was cold to the bone.
The next evening.
Of the more than a dozen people who entered, only five came out crookedly, and all of them were seriously injured.
The five of them were lying at the foot of Dagou Mountain in a daze, the cold wind was biting, and several of them were already so cold that they had lost their breath.
At this time, a young man wearing a black trench coat walked briskly.
He squatted down next to the scholar-like middle-aged man, and reached out to take out a purple red stone from his clothes.
"Thank you for the caravan."
This young man is the heir of alchemy, Zhang Luo.
A few days ago, he got the news that the Huang family in the capital had entered Dagou Mountain, and they must have come for that thing, and he couldn't stand idly by.
Zhang Luo was about to leave, when he suddenly felt that someone around him was approaching him.
With a roar of horses, more than a dozen black-clothed people surrounded Zhang Luo, if it was in normal times, Zhang Luo could easily escape, but now it was a gun pointing at him.
"Huang Jiatao's trip to the sand, I didn't expect your Yi family to intervene."
The young man's face became solemn, and he didn't say a word from beginning to end, this kid actually knew that he was from the Yi family.
"The affairs of our Yi family, it's not your turn to talk too much, take it for me."
Zhang Luo took off his hat and said with a smile: "Yi Dongchen, this old guy, is a good praying mantis catching cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind."
What is the terrifying thing that happened in the Stopping Wind Ridge, except for the person concerned, no one knows, even the Yi family does not dare to enter it easily, what is inside?
The capital, Yifu.
"The head of the family, that kid still doesn't eat oil and salt, and he won't say a word."
Itochen played with the fuchsia stone in his hand and fell into deep thought.
"Don't eat hard or soft?"
The butler nodded, and suddenly thought of something.
"He said a word, but ......"
Itochen said, "But what? ”
"He said he knew Miss, and Miss owed him a reward."
Yi Dongchen's face instantly turned ugly, and he said: "Ridiculous, hurry up and call the young lady over, I want to ask what happened."
"What's the matter, making Boss Yi so unhappy."
Ma Ancong walked in with a fan, which can be described as wonderful, and now that the snow is falling, he still can't leave the fan.
"Ma gang master, please come in, come and sit and serve tea."
Ma Ancong is not a fuel-efficient lamp, there are many people in black and white, and his personal ability is extremely strong, otherwise how could he be able to suppress the Ma Gang at the age of thirty.
"Boss Yi, let's not be polite, open the skylight and say something."
Itochen pretended not to know anything and looked at Ma Ancong.
"Gang Master, where do you start?"
Ma An never knew that this guy was very cunning, and he might not be able to play with him, so he could only say it straight and press him with reason.
"Your descendants of the Yi family robbed the pole of my horse gang, and now the Huang family is making trouble with me, what do you say I should do?"
Itochen smiled: "There is still such a thing? ”
Ma Ancong walked to Yi Dongchen's side and whispered: "Boss Yi, you know what it means to stop the wind ridge, the Yi family and the Li family in the Northeast have fallen out a year ago, I am afraid that the Yi family alone will not be able to gnaw this bone and will swallow it to death."
This sentence went to Itochen's heart, why didn't he know?
"What should we do?"
Yi Dongchen is also tempting, if the conditions are not suitable, no one wants to take away the things, in the capital, who is the Yi family afraid of?
Ma Ancong said: "Three families join forces, four in the Yi family, three each in my Ma Gang and the Huang family."
That's what Itochen was waiting for.
"Deal!"
Ma Ancong took a sip of tea and said, "We don't have to take away things, but I have to take people."
Yi Dongchen said with a smile: "Who is the person mentioned by the leader of the horse gang, our Yi family has no one to arrest your horse gang."
Ma Ancong said: "Boss Yi is pretending to be confused."
Itochen thought about it for a while, and felt that since the three families were in alliance, then this person would be useless, so take it away.
"Come, bring people out".
"I don't agree".
Yi Huaxi suddenly walked in.
"Ridiculous, this kid usually makes me spoiled, the master of the horse gang laughed, come on, take the young lady down."
Yi Huaxi: "Dad, he can't be taken away, you will regret it".
Itochen became angry and slapped the table.
"Don't you hear, take Miss down immediately."
"Dad......"
Ma Ancong was afraid that Itochen would regret it, so he made an excuse to leave quickly.
"Boss Yi, you also know that a lot of brothers have died in the gang, and I have to go back quickly to deal with the aftermath."
Yi Dongchen: "What the Ma Gang Master said is extremely true, come to the people, bring people out to the Ma Gang Master."
Ma Ancong arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Boss Yi."
In the hall of the caravan, a group of people followed behind Zhang Luo, including Ma Ancong.
"Master".
Zhang Luo looked impatient and said, "I said it, I don't accept apprentices."
Ma Ancong smiled: "Master, don't."
Zhang Luo was very helpless, a year ago, he saved the Ma Gang in a general's tomb, including Ma Ancong, and then taught them a little self-defense, and it became what it is now.
Zhang Luo thought about it again and again, he has no fixed place to live now, and the whereabouts of that thing are again, so it is difficult to do it alone.
Zhang Luo pretended to be a master and said, "It's not impossible to want me to teach you the inverted fighting technique."
When Ma Ancong heard that there was a trick, he immediately became excited, but he saw Zhang Luo kill a corpse with his own eyes, and he didn't have to say anything about that skill.
"Master, what do you want us to do?"
Zhang Luo said: "You must listen to me in the future, and don't bother me if you have nothing to do, and you can't tell others my whereabouts."
Ma Ancong's heart blossomed when he heard such a simple thing, but he didn't know that this was a big hole that was not filled.
In fact, Zhang Luo was also quite guilty, he was obviously able to save those Mabang disciples, but he didn't make a move, after all, revealing the magic of touching gold, this is going to be a big mess.
"When are you three going to go to the ground?"
Ma Ancong was actually still confused, if he hadn't known that Zhang Luo had been arrested by the Yi family, he wouldn't have had such a hard confidence to bargain with Yi Dongchen.
"I don't know yet, I don't know ...... Master"
Zhang Luo said lightly: "Seven days later, at twelve o'clock in the evening, when it is extremely cloudy, I will fight."
