Chapter 62: The Pass

Chen An understands Li Dart's concerns and decisions, and furthermore, he did not mention that he offended Xuanwu Jianmen when he hired Yiyou Dart, but now Xuanwu Jianmen has taken the initiative to come to the door, to some extent, it is indeed he who has affected Yiyou Dart, so he will agree to terminate the contract, and everyone will get together and disperse.

Returning to the group and setting off again, Chen An accompanied the little girl in the carriage for a while, and when she fell asleep from exhaustion, he quietly left the carriage, because he wanted to ask Li Dangtou how to ride a horse.

After all, when it comes to traveling, riding a horse is always lighter and faster than a horse-drawn carriage, especially at critical moments.

Li Dart head is a mouthful of this to take down, as a dart in the line, horseback riding is one of the skills that must be mastered, but it is easy to teach, difficult to teach, in case the other party is not good at understanding, how to teach, it is no wonder that he did not do his best.

Fortunately, Li Darttou didn't need to worry about this, and after teaching for a while, seeing Chen An driving the horses with ease, he really couldn't help but want to ask, are you really a beginner in horseback riding? Such a terrifying horseback riding talent may only be comparable to the Beiyu barbarians who grew up on horseback since childhood.

Towards evening, everyone finally arrived at Hengshan County, the next county seat.

Hengshan County is located in the northern border of Qizhou, adjacent to Luzhou, known as the throat of the north gate of Qizhou, whether it is an important town that can not be avoided from the south to the north, so the local economic development is particularly prosperous.

Soon after entering the city, there are many shops and liquor shops along the street, and there are frequent traffic and hustle and bustle, which is difficult to compare with the towns that have passed by before.

After looking for several inns, Li Darthead helped Chen An find a place to stay, and then he led the dart shop to say goodbye to Chen An.

"Brother Chen, according to the agreement between us, I can only send you here, I'm really sorry!"

"Don't you live together?"

Chen An stood in front of the inn holding the little girl's hand, looking at Li Daotou, who was clasping his fists at him.

"We are a bunch of rough men with rough skin and thick flesh can't afford to live in such a good inn, and if we can save it, we can save ......" Li Dangtou glanced at the palatial inn behind Chen An, and said with a wry smile on his dark face. "Speaking of which, I would like to thank you for only half of the dart money, which we should have refunded to you in full according to the contract......"

"Anyway, you all escorted us half the way, and you deserve it. Chen Andao.

"Alas, Brother Chen, thank you for your great kindness, we will meet again in the future!"

Li Darttou shook his head and sighed, and then led the darts to salute him and left directly.

"Uncle, Uncle Li, won't they go with us in the future?" said the confused little girl as she tugged at Chen An's sleeve.

"Yes, they can't continue to escort us to Jiangzhou anymore, but don't worry, I'll find another dart company to escort us to Jiangzhou. ”

Chen An looked at the distant backs of Li Bangtou and the others with a calm expression, and reached out to pat the little girl's head and said casually.

Li Darthead broke the contract because of the matter of Xuanwu Jianmen, but the dart line in Hengshan County did not know his grievances with Xuanwu Jianmen, if you want to find another dart line to escort it, it is not difficult, but it is inevitable that there will be some tricks. Therefore, the dart line he chooses next must have some deep Jianghu background, and it is best to rely on a famous faction like Yunqingmen who is not afraid of Xuanwu Sword Sect at all, even if the other party wants to retaliate at that time, I am afraid that he will have to think carefully.

Unexpectedly, after he inquired about the local dart shop from the inn guys, there was actually a dart shop run by a disciple of Yunqingmen in Hengshan County.

As a result, the next day, he directly asked for directions and found the dart shop of Yunqingmen, negotiated the price, and before noon, they left Hengshan County and embarked on the road to Jiangzhou again.

Perhaps it is the relationship between the big tree of Yunqingmen, the dart masters of Yunqingmen are inevitably a little arrogant in terms of words and deeds, and as the head of the dart, not to mention Sun Darthead, the arrogant and arrogant attitude alone is disgusting, and the professional accomplishment is simply one day and one place compared to Li Darthead, if it weren't for their background, Chen An really wanted to terminate the contract with the other party immediately.

Therefore, in the following days, unless necessary, most of the time he stayed in the carriage and was too lazy to deal with the other party.

However, I have to say that with the dart flag of Yunqingmen, they didn't even encounter a thief along the way, so it was so smooth, no wonder they developed the current habits of these dart masters.

When they were about to enter the Jiangzhou territory, Xuanwu Jianmen had not yet come to the door again to seek revenge, thinking that it was because Chen An's delayed plan was effective, and the Yongping Mansion of Jiangzhou was located in the south of Jiangzhou, and they could arrive safely in as little as one day, or as many as two days, even if Xuanwu Jianmen now learned of the death of the middle-aged man and others, I am afraid that it will be beyond the reach of the whip.

The border between Yunzhou and Jiangzhou is undulating in the mountains, the terrain is dangerous, it has always been an important place for soldiers in the north, so there is a famous Yanshan Pass here, even if the world has been peaceful for a long time, Yanshan Pass has always been stationed with 3,000 guard soldiers.

"It's really strange, when do you have to go through a strict check when you go to and from Yanshan Pass? Could it be that outside Mobei Pass, there is another war with the Beiyu?"

When Chen An and his entourage were about to pass through Yanshan Pass, Clinker found that the passing business travelers were being strictly checked at the pass, and when there was a long queue to enter the customs, Sun Darttou complained impatiently.

His voice was not small, even if Chen An stayed in the car, he could hear it clearly.

"I heard that the barbarians outside the gate have been very honest recently, and I haven't heard of a war outside the gate!"

After a while, someone in the queue responded.

"Could it be that someone smuggled a large amount of prohibited materials to the north and let the border army seize it?" someone speculated.

"How is it possible! Jiangzhou Qiaohou Cao Kongsi has sold many prohibited materials to the northern captives over the years, and they have not seen the imperial court do anything to them so far!"

"Hey, the Confucian scholars in our imperial cabinet are from the Confucian family of the four major families, and they have the care of Confucian scholars, who dares to check them?" someone sneered.

"No one has investigated?! Have you forgotten Tang Xuanfu, who was newly appointed in Jiangzhou half a year ago? Didn't he cooperate with the border army to investigate a batch of important contraband materials?" someone said in a loud voice. "And if he hadn't knocked out a batch of money and grain from the four major families to help the border army and the victims, otherwise the entire Jiangzhou would be in chaos now!"

"Hehe! Tang Xuanfu is just a man who sells his reputation and reputation, but I have heard that he colluded with the border army to collude with the northern captives, and when the time is ripe, they will cooperate with the northern captives and plunder the great rivers and mountains of our great separation in one fell swoop!" said someone with extreme sarcasm.

"I don't believe ......"

For a while, the entire queue of people was in a mess, and when the captain of Yanshan Pass saw this, he quickly dispatched a squad to suppress the restlessness of the team, so as not to further cause chaos.

Hearing the conversation of the crowd, especially the content involving Tang Xuanfu, Chen An couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

It seems that this Lord Tang Xuanfu is really loyal and treacherous!
