Chapter 43: White Blades
When Zhang Xiaodao heard this, he couldn't help but become depressed. That's it! If you let someone return it again! Then it's completely no drama! This shows that people just know our background and the origin of things! But I don't want to make any deals with us outsiders! That's the equivalent of shutting the door completely! If that's the case! It seems that this business is really impossible!! If this is still the case! I don't think there's anything to talk about! Let's just talk about how to plow the land in the future!!
After a night of confusion, everyone rested early, ready to see the final answer tomorrow!
The third time he entered the thatched shed tribe, Zhang Xiaodao's heart chuckled again, because there was still no one here, and it was the second time he came! Then I went to the wellhead where the answer was placed, and looked at Zhang Xiaodao, and said in my heart! Finished! It's completely over!
At first sight, there were four more bags with things! And the four bags are also the four empty bags left by the extra bag of salt last time!
Zhang Xiaodao completely fainted this time! Now it's time to throw !! But no one dared to ask for it!! Now Zhang Xiaodao is panicked when he sees the salt on so many animals! I secretly said to myself, this is not a business! Instead, he found a way for himself to break his fortune.
Just when everyone was covered with dark clouds, someone suddenly said, "This bag is not salt!" ”
Not salt!??? So what would it be??? Everyone hurried over to check it out! When Zhang Xiaodao heard this, he almost didn't fall off the horse! It's also a rush to come and watch!
Let's take a look. It turned out to be a bag of grains, beans, and so on!
Oh! Look at this situation, people take salt and then give back some of these grains or something! But the price is too far away! Just these bags of salt have been transported all the way here, and they are worth at least the price of a horse! But now I can't afford even a half-sized pig for these things! This! This!
In the end, everyone thought about it again, after learning about this place, and the first time we came to see what other people were eating! It seems that these grains are still good things that have been selected by others! Give it back to us! Since people have the heart to give back! It seems that this is also their most useful thing!!
Zhang Xiaodao looked at such a situation! It seems that this trip is completely over! This person doesn't look rich, and he doesn't want to associate with people! As for the equivalent exchange, it has now become a gift of money! What if you don't give it away! Ship everything back again, and everyone who knows that this trip will laugh off their big teeth! It's not a shame to ship it back! People who see this still have a little conscience! Alas! That's it! It seems that he has given up something. Be a good nameless person!
It's nothing to us to look at these grains. But for them, it's still something to support their families! It seems that this person also has a simple side! Forget it, the watermelon is gone, why do you want this sesame seed! It's all together!
Then everyone shouted again, thank you for your gift! Keep all the things. We're about to set off on a long journey. I hope to make friends in the future
As soon as the conclusion is out. Everyone is helpless, it seems that this is the case! In the end, everyone decided to get out of here! Let's go to the front along the valley plains!
But along the way, three thatched hut tribes were discovered one after another! Everything that happened was the same as the first thatched hut tribe! But this time it's one less link! It's a gift. One shout, one the next day, another look, and finally another shout to make a friend! Then evacuate!
Along the way, Zhang Xiaodao felt that he had really made a lot of friends! But that's all it takes! But it happened again and again! And so on and so forth! How many of our things can be scattered like this! You can't make friends and play every day?
Zhang Xiaodao is almost completely desperate now! I didn't expect this trip to end like this! He also prepared for the worst, that is, instead of this, I will let the good people do the bottom! When the salt is finished, I will sell the house again when I go back!! I'm going to see the bottom of this deck of cards!! Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaodao's stubbornness and stubbornness came up again.
Originally, I heard Brother Han Mankui say that a big bag has about 100 catties of salt, and you can change it into a tiger skin or tiger bone when you go to the mountains; But now I just got some miscellaneous grains that weren't worth a few dollars! This is very different! After seeing that this fourth thatched hut tribe was another similar miscellaneous grain, Zhang Xiaodaoxin said, If I had known that this was the case, I would have changed the rice near the Qige country and it would be better than this!
After the fourth thatched hut tribe got the same answer, Zhang Xiaodao didn't even bother to let people shout! His caravan still had a lot of food, and there was no shortage of it, so he ordered everyone to retreat and prepare to go deeper, and we didn't believe that there was no one who could talk here!
But as soon as the team turned around and was about to leave the fourth thatched hut tribe, they were blocked in the thatched hut tribe by more than fifty people riding horses with knives and guns in their hands!
A scar-faced and sharp-eyed horseback man at the head said to everyone, "What are you doing?? ”
Zhang Xiaodao looked at these people, all of them looked fierce and vicious! At first glance, it is not good!
Zhang Xiaodao glanced at the tent man Quan Mingde, meaning to tell them!
The tent gentleman Quan Mingde clenched his fists and said: "We are a caravan from the country of Zige, dare to ask all the heroes?" ”
The scar-faced and sharp-eyed horseback man at the head said again: "Oh, caravan!? And what kind of goods are you carrying? ”
"It's salt!" The bookkeeper Quan Mingde replied.
"What!! Salt!!! Oh! Many people blurted out in amazement!
The scar-faced and sharp-eyed man also had evil eyes in his eyes, and asked again: "These animals are all loaded with ?? ”
"Both." The bookkeeper Quan Mingde replied.
"Oh yes!!" The gang were amazed and exclaimed at the same time!
The scar-faced and sharp-eyed man said with a fierce look in his eyes: "Okay, you leave all the livestock." Horses, get out of wherever they come from! If you want to live, get out of here!! ”
After the scar-faced man at the head finished speaking, the people behind him immediately all faced each other with swords, their eyes showing fierce lights, ready to attack at any time.
When everyone heard this, they almost blew up their lungs! It seems that this one is still small! And the whole pot is served!
The tent gentleman Quan Mingde hurriedly said: "Dare to ask all the heroes??? ”
The scar-faced man at the head didn't even pay attention to Quan Mingde, but just sent a small minion next to him to reply: "We are the eagles in the sky!" Wolves on the ground! If you want to live, leave something behind, hurry up! ”
Brother Han Mankui really can't listen to it! Lama came out and said, "I'm old! Eagle, wolf! Phew! If you want something, first ask me if I agree to the knife!! ”
Scarface big man listens! Just one word! "Kill me!!"
Zhang Xiaodao listened! I have long been angry and have blown up my stomach, and the evil fire that was pressing my stomach along the way has come out nowhere, and now I see the situation in front of me. He scolded in his heart: "What about him! You don't know what Grandpa eats! Dare to rob me of something! I think I'm really looking for death! "So I said it right away!" Kill me too!! ”
Brush! Brush! Brush! The small caravan is all white-edged! Next. It's a white-knuckle battle that goes against each other! The current war is really not afraid of Zhang Xiaodao at all, except for the fear of Sieg Baolan and Mu Maowei, the general of Wuli Kingdom. No one has yet been able to enter his eyes.
Two gangs of people in a firefight! Only then did these thieves know that the people in this small caravan were really not vegetarians! Zhang Xiaodao also pulled out his own knife and cut it down! He is now depressed with bitter water in his stomach, and he has just found a place to vent!
Brother Han Mankui is wielding his Black Wind Three-Pointed Knife and fluttering! Yes! Flutter! Yes! The left and right killed the scar-faced man at the back!
The endless wind is guarding the left and right of Zhang Xiaodao. Took on the responsibility of defending the manager.
Gu Long. Mai Hu is following Brother Han Mankui to help him assault!
Just these thieves! It's not enough for the small caravan to stuff their teeth! One last time, I just listened to the sound of ahh The scar-faced man was slapped off the horse by Brother Han's mankui! Then the cutter head presses the neck!
The scar-faced man led by him was captured alive! The rest of the people all raised their swords and surrendered!
In the end, as soon as everyone cleared the battlefield, they found that more than 20 enemies had died, and none of their own people had died! There are just a few of them that have hung up the lottery! But there is no need to worry about your life!
Zhang Xiaodao looked at the group of generals he received when he was in a high position. What a pure man! Looking at the consequences of daring to confront himself, I couldn't help but be overjoyed, and I felt that it was still my old job that was comfortable.
After everyone has tied up all the remaining thieves! Then the interrogation began, and after asking, I realized that they were bandits in a place called Yunwei Mountain here! And I came to this thatched hut tribe to catch Ding Suo! Who knows that I don't want to run into Zhang Xiaodao's small caravan!
The situation is already roughly understood! But what next! Kill them all!? But they all surrendered, and it would be a bit too much to kill them again! It's not okay to let it go, and if you go back and attract more people, isn't it asking for trouble! And take it with you? How can this be done!
As soon as everyone discussed, this matter in front of us was really a problem! In the end, everyone decided to leave this thatched hut tribe first, and then find a place to interrogate carefully! Make a decision at the end!
But as soon as everyone was about to leave, suddenly from all directions, surrounded by people armed with more than 1,000 people holding various guys! I saw that they were either holding hunting forks or farm tools! Men, women, and children crowded around each other, and the black pressed one by one, and everyone was blocked in the thatched hut tribe!
Looking at the costumes and expressions of these people, everyone found that they were probably the inhabitants of this thatched hut tribe! And they are obviously afraid of us, but they don't want us to leave! So I had to stand up and surround the crowd!
It's good for everyone to see that it's good now! If you don't come, you won't come! It's all here! But what about the current situation! Those bandits can be killed! But what are we going to do with these people! You can't do it too! But they have to be guarded, they all hold guys! I thought to myself, we can't help but defend ourselves! Everyone had no choice but to wait and see!
After a stalemate for a while, I saw a young strong man holding an old man with a cane in a hurry! The two arrived, and the crowd dodged! It seems that the old man with a cane should be the tribal leader here!
Zhang Xiaodao finally came out with a person who could speak. So he immediately ordered the small caravan to put away its weapons!
The residents of the thatched hut saw that the small caravan had put away their weapons, so they also eased some of the tense stalemate situation!
The old man with a cane walked in front of the people of the small caravan, and let the inhabitants put away their weapons, and then said to the caravan: "Heroes, heroes! You can't leave! ”
Zhang Xiaodao asked strangely, "Why??" ”
The old man with the cane continued, "You have killed their men here!" They turned around and found people dead here, and they couldn't find you! Then the blame will be laid on all of us! When the time comes, it is possible to wash our tribe in blood! So we have to show up for the sake of our inhabitants and leave you behind! ”
When Zhang Xiaodao and everyone heard this, the old man's worries were also reasonable, so he did this kind of thing to besiege everyone! Immediately, Zhang Xiaodao ordered down and set up camp here for the time being. Stay at the same time. Keep a close watch on the captives, and not one of them can be let go for the time being! Then I asked the old man to borrow a step to have a good chat and see what the situation is here!
When the old man saw that everyone was staying, he was also at ease! Then they also shouted that the crowd dispersed. Get back to your own lives!
At the command of the old man. The people of the thatched hut are really welcoming. After a while, they each made a fire to cook, brought all kinds of food to the people of the small caravan, and killed a half-big sheep. When everyone in the small caravan saw this thatched hut tribe that was not rich in the first place, they all took out their own good things to entertain everyone, and they were all moved by their hearts!
The leader of the small caravan and the old man of the thatched hut tribe, as well as some elders of the tribe, also found an open place outside, built a tent to sit on, and ate on the ground!
As soon as everyone greeted each other, they learned that the old man with a cane was named Yifu Mountain, and he was the head of the tribe here, and there were about 1,000 people living in this tribe.
From the mouth of the tribal leader Yifu Mountain, it turned out that these thatched hut tribes who were hiding were all in the same mentality, and everyone knew why they had those different reactions to the first thatched hut tribe in the small caravan!
It turned out that after the small caravan came here for the first time and was discovered by the first hut tribe inhabitant, everyone saw that they were each carrying swords and arrows, thinking that it was another bandit, so they all fled in a hurry. Later the watchdog reported that they were gone! When you come back, you can see that these people have left us salt! Everyone was very happy to see this thing! Because this salt is worth as much as gold in this place! The first inhabitants of the hut tribe looked at it, and they left us this salt! But if we want it, we don't know what price it will pay!? It seems that there are a lot of left! But what can we do to pay such a price! So everyone is happy, but no one dares to ask for it! Because if you ask for it, if you come back and find it again, you may even cause a big disaster because of these salts! So I collected them all again and returned them.
When the small caravan came for the second time, as soon as they shouted, everyone knew the identities of these people, and this salt was not necessary! Due to the lack of salt, many people are weak because of the lack of salt! When everyone heard that it was a gift, they all accepted it happily! But our thatched hut tribe is so poor, there is really nothing we can do to get our hands on, and the livestock are our livelihood, and now there are not many of them, so we can't move this! So in the end, everyone made up some grains to express their hearts, but the value of the two things is too different, and we are also ashamed to meet you, so we hide again!
As for your little caravan being just a passerby, we don't dare to trade with you even if we want to!
Zhang Xiaodao, Feng Wuhen, Han Ge Mankui and other people all asked in surprise when they heard this! Why?????
It turns out that there is no place to produce salt here! And all the salt of these people was bought from the hands of those bandits! And the mountain people of this thatched hut tribe! There are good things too! There are also a lot of good mountain goods! As for the four bags of salt given by Zhang Xiaodao, if these people from the thatched hut tribe want to exchange them, they have to accumulate a cart of tiger bones, wolf skins, deer antlers, musk, mountain ginseng and other valuables to get them! Moreover, these bandits, it is not enough to control this salt road, they also have to come to catch Ding Suowu on weekdays, so the people of the thatched hut tribe hate and fear them, but they can't do without them! And who dares to break such a chain of interests! It's going to kill you!
After hearing this, everyone in the small caravan was all angry! I really don't know if I don't listen! I was shocked when I heard it! No wonder the people here are so poor! It turned out that they were all exploited by this gang of thieves! It seems that with these thieves, we can't do this business!
Zhang Xiaodao is like a flatulent cow with an atmosphere at this time! The heart says! No wonder my little business has salt and no way here! It turns out that they are all controlled by you! He immediately ordered someone to bring the scar-faced man headed by him for careful interrogation!
It turned out that the scar-faced man's name was Li Ershan, a small leader, who came here to catch some strong men and collect some food they needed to eat, and to repair the cottage for these thieves!
From Li Ershan's mouth, I learned that there are more than 500 bandits in Yunwei Mountain! And there are three masters who are strong in martial arts and murderous! They are Kuilong, Kuihu, and Kuiwolf. They have been operating here for many years and are deeply rooted! It also built a Yunwei cottage that is easy to defend and difficult to attack! And I know how to survive here! They used salt roads to connect all the small and small hut tribes within a radius of 100 miles, and then ruled it by force, becoming a king river that will never dry up. …… (To be continued......)
