Chapter 22: The Night Road Canyon is in trouble

As night fell, Ah Xiang drove a covered carriage back to Juyi Hall.

"Ah Xiang is back," Qiao Xiaojing and they integrated Mr. Liu to chat, and suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, Mr. Liu pointed outside with a smile, and said very confidently, "Your task is here, let's go out and have a look together." ”

Qiao Xiaojing and the others followed Mr. Liu out of the Juyi Hall, and sure enough, they saw a carriage coming over, and the person driving the carriage was Ah Xiang, who had not seen him for a long time.

"Hello Mr. Liu," Ah Xiang got out of the carriage with a smile, lifted the curtain, and a man in a Mao suit poked his head out with a smile and said amiably, "Hello everyone, I'm late, I'm sorry to keep you waiting!"

Qiao Xiaojing They didn't know who this person's name was, let alone if he was the mysterious person they had to escort to Yan'an, so they just smiled and didn't say anything.

"Boss Wu is polite," Mr. Liu stepped forward and said with a smile, "I just took advantage of these times to explain the task to the creeper team, and they are all ready, and now the time is just right, and they can quietly go out of the gorge at night." ”

Qiao Xiaojing stared at this person intently, this person was over half a hundred years old, medium build, radiant, and smiling, if he was the boss, it would be more accurate to say that he was a teacher.

Since Mr. Liu calls him Boss Wu, then Boss Wu, anyway, whether he is a business boss or a gentleman who teaches and solves doubts, he is the object we want to escort this time, he is our task, Qiao Xiaojing did what he thought.

"Let me bother you," the so-called Boss Wu said politely, "Are these people what you call the Creeper Special Operations Group?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Mr. Liu smiled and pointed to Qiao Xiaojing and them, and said, "Look at my brain, I patronized and talked to you, and I forgot that you met them for the first time and didn't know each other." So, I'll give you an introduction......"

"The five of them are all members of the Creeper Special Operations Group," Mr. Liu introduced Qiao Xiaojing and the five of them to Boss Wu one by one, and looked at Qiao Xiaojing with a smile and said, "This person is Boss Wu, a very important person, I can't say anything else, I have already explained it clearly to you before, you remember, you must ensure that Boss Wu arrives in Yan'an safely." ”

"Understood. Qiao Xiaojing smiled and nodded.

As he spoke, the night had become much heavier, and a crescent moon appeared in the sky, and the ground was dappled with moonlight.

The big man drove the carriage, and Boss Wu sat on the carriage with Qiao Xiaojing, Cuiyu, Ah Zi and Dazhi, and the carriage creaked through the canyon. The carriage drifted farther and farther away, and grew smaller and smaller, until finally it melted into the night.

"This canyon is really long," said the big man naturally after walking for about two hours, still not out of the canyon, "I haven't seen my head after walking for more than half a night, and it seems that I may not be able to get out of this canyon this night." ”

"It's really hard to travel at night," Boss Wu mistook the big man for complaining about the night rush, and said with a smile, "I'm really embarrassed that others are sleeping, but you have to work with me." That's good, when we get out of this canyon, we will rest when we get to the next town, nourish our spirits, eat and drink enough, and then we will hurry. ”

"Boss Wu," the big man whipped his horseback and turned his head slightly to ask, "Do you know how long this canyon is?"

"I'm ashamed," Boss Wu said with a smile, "I've just arrived here, I've never heard of this place before, and of course I've never been to this place, so I really can't answer your question." ”

"That," the big man paused, and then said, "Boss Wu, you see that we are going to get along all the way, the time will not be too short, and understanding each other will help you come up with harmony, can you tell me what kind of business you do?"

"This ......" Boss Wu thought for a moment, but then smiled, "I do a lot, and I will do whatever business is valuable, which is not necessarily, but in general, it is all buying and selling, there is nothing to say, and I can't finish a sentence or two." ”

Qiao Xiaojing coughed twice, not wanting the big man to ask questions again, making it difficult for Boss Wu not to say anything, and more importantly, he was afraid that the big man would violate the rules, after all, Mr. Liu repeatedly explained that he could not ask more about Boss Wu's details.

"Anyway," the big man didn't seem to understand Qiao Xiaojing's cough, and slapped the horseback twice, tilted his head and said, "It's still a long way, don't be too anxious, speak slowly, it just happens to relieve the fatigue of rushing at night." ”

"I ......" Boss Wu was about to speak, but was stopped by Qiao Xiaojing.

"Why are there so many words?" Qiao Xiaojing said, "Catch the car." In the canyon, the road is difficult to walk, either stones or potholes, or concentrate on catching up with the car, and it is not too late to say anything to wait out of the canyon. ”

"Talk a little gossip," the big man glared and waved his leather whip, and said lightly, "It's not easy to fall asleep, besides, you don't delay when you talk, you use your mouth to speak, you use your hands to catch the car, don't you delay, isn't it, Mr. Wu?"

"Why is there so much nonsense?" Cuiyu couldn't hold it back, and said angrily, "You can do whatever you want, you can't stop opening the chatterbox, you chatter along the way, don't you feel annoyed?"

"Good!" said the big man, reluctantly, picked up his whip, struck his horse's back, and roared angrily, "Drive, drive, drive...... The carriage was noticeably faster, and more bumpy than before.

Then no one spoke, only the sound of horses' hooves and the creaking of wheels.

Suddenly, with a "click", the carriage on the side of the carriage crashed into a big stone, and the carriage was torn apart in an instant, and the carriage rolled out far away, and the five people in the car, including Boss Wu, faced this sudden situation, no one had any precautions, only heard a few screams, and all of them were thrown on the cold ground.

The horse was frightened, and roared violently, and ran forward as if crazy, and the big man stood on the only remaining floor of the carriage, and pulled the reins of the horse tightly, and while shouting "Hoo~hoo~", he rushed forward with the shoe, and raised a thick sand behind him.

Ah Zi and Dazhi were lucky, they happened to fall on the sand, although it was also painful, but the fall was not heavy in comparison, they staggered to their feet, limped to the others, eagerly inquired about their injuries, and slowly helped them to sit up.

"I can't see it clearly now," Boss Wu was very concerned about the big man who was taken away by the horse, looked ahead and sighed, "I don't know what happened to the big man, but don't make any more trouble." ”

"Don't worry," Dazhi limped to the big man, and comforted everyone, "The big man is burly and strong, and his arms are strong, so there shouldn't be any big trouble, you guys take a rest first, and I'll go and see." ”

"Ah Zi also goes," Qiao Xiaojing said, "Let's do it slowly, you go with Dazhi, hurry up and see how the big man is, if he really can't control the crazy horse, let him stop caring about the horse, as long as the others are okay." ”

"No," Dazhi said, "let Ah Zi stay there, you need someone to take care of you, too." ”

"Let's go," Boss Wu also said to Ah Zi, "Our situation is like this, we won't be able to stand up for a while, and we can't move, so I'm waiting for you here, you hurry up and help the big one, just do what Team Leader Qiao said." Let's go!"

"Okay, I'll go!" Ah Zi turned to leave, hesitated again and said, "I'm sure the big man will be fine, maybe he has already subdued that crazy horse and is rushing back!"

Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu waved their hands, and Ah Zi followed Dazhi forward.

"Where did this person go?" After walking for a long time, Ah Zi and Dazhi didn't hear the big man's voice, and of course they didn't see the big man's figure, Ah Zi was a little worried, "I've walked so far, why is there still no one?"

"Let's go again," Dazhi said, "this canyon is not wide, it will not be staggered, and I haven't heard any movement along the way, so it should still be ahead." ”

Ah Zi and Dazhi could only walk forward patiently, and after walking a long distance, they vaguely heard movement in front of them, and Dazhi shouted: "Big man, is it you?"

"Yes, it's me. The big man replied.

Dazhi and the big man approached the big man as fast as they could, and when they came to the big man, they saw the big man huddled in the rubble, and there were some broken pieces of wood around him.

"Are you alright?" Dazhi and Ah Zi asked in unison, and at the same time squatted down.

"Look at me like this," said the big man, inhaling as he spoke, evidently in pain, "am I like a man who has nothing to do? The beast is like a madman, running faster and faster, and running faster and faster, and no matter how much I pull the reins, I can't stop it, and it doesn't run, and it crashes into the boulder, and the floor of the car shatters, and I almost break to pieces." ”

"I'll help you up first. Dazhi stretched out his arm, trying to pull the big man up.

"Hey......," the big man sighed, "don't move me, don't move me, I feel like my whole body is about to fall apart, if you move me, I, I may fall apart completely." ”

"It's not that serious," Zi said, "you just bumped into it, and it's not nearly to the point of falling apart." ”

The big man kept screaming, and the screams were heartbreaking.

"Alright," Dazhi said, "don't scream, I'll carry you away." ”

"That's right, that's fine. The big man lay on Dazhi's back with the help of Ah Zi.

"Don't force yourself," Dazhi said as he walked back with the big man on his back, "If you think it's uncomfortable for me to carry it, then you can continue to shout here." I'm also hurt a lot, and I really don't want to walk on your back!"

"Good brother," said the eldest man, "when is it, why do you still care about these things with me? I can't walk on my own, or I would never dare to let my brother suffer." Rest assured, I will remember this for the rest of my life. ”

"That's pretty much it!" Dazhi said lightly.

"Xiaojing, how are they?" the big man also remembered the others at this time.

"They're also injured," Zi said, "and they can't move for the time being, but it might be better to rest for a while." ”

"It's all my fault," the big man felt a little guilty, "if I had been driving slowly, this accident probably wouldn't have happened." ”

"What's the use of talking about that now?" said Daichi.

The three of them had been walking for a distance when they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves. No one knew who it was, and they were wondering when suddenly two men and two horsemen rushed past them.

"Xiaojing, they're going to be fine, right?" Ah Zi muttered.
