Chapter 338: Departure to Beirong
Shen Xing went back to Shen's house late and saw the old lady and told him his plans.
The old lady pondered for a moment and said, "It's good that you know in your heart, have you figured out how to enter Beirong, now that the two countries are at war, the border gates must be strictly investigated." ”
"In the past, I was trying to figure out a way, and I had to actually see the situation over there before I could make a decision." Shen Xing said late.
The two talked about some things again, and Shen Xingwan went back to Zhuangzi directly overnight.
Hua Yan didn't sleep waiting for her to come back.
There was sake and a pot in the yard, and Hua Yan didn't want anyone to wait, so she took the long chopsticks and started her hands, and she was happy to eat.
Seeing her coming back, he greeted her, "Come on, the meat is just right." ”
Shen Xingwan was really hungry, so he sat down and took the chopsticks and ate unceremoniously.
The two clinked glasses, and a glass of green plum wine went down to refresh.
Shen Xingwan said with some regret, "I'm going to leave for Beirong tomorrow, so I can't accompany you." In terms of business, I will let Jiang Shiyi Lang dock with you. ”
Hua Yan sighed and drank all the wine in the cup, "There is a time to get together, a time to part, and a time to meet again." ”
The two of them had a good drink.
In the end, Hua Yan put a small white jade token in her heart, "This is a token that only the Hua family has in the lineage, although I don't know what you are going to do in Beirong." But not far from Beijung, there is a merchant in Luocheng, if you need it, go there to find a shop called Huachou. ”
Shen Xingwan accepted her kindness, "Thank you." ”
Hua Yan patted her shoulder, "Buy and leave, I bet on you to win this game, I'm waiting for the prosperous world you said." ”
After speaking, he waved his hand and staggered back to his room.
Shen Xingwan clenched the jade plate in her hand, although this road was slow, there were always people by her side to accompany her.
In order not to alarm people as much as possible, Shen Xing only slept for a while at night, and was ready to set off before dawn.
She picked eighteen people from the nightingale and the flowing fireflies, added Shen Ruoyan and Lin Jiaotou, and took a group of people who were tired of riding fast horses and set off.
She didn't let anyone send her, there were quite a few people staring at her, and the fewer people knew about her dynamics, the better.
Tired of getting on the horse, he asked a little puzzled, "Why did you take me?" ”
His whole image of being autistic is not very familiar with Shen Xingwan.
"You can fight, and your ability to survive in the wild is strong." Shen Xingwan said with a smile, after all, he grew up in the wolves.
The team of more than 20 people took a different route, and under the leadership of Lin Jiaotou, they quickly shook off the tail behind them.
Ten days later, halfway through the journey to the border pass, a group of people stopped in the town, disguised as a rich man who had escaped from the rot, and rented a yard in a small alley.
After resting for a night, Lin Jiaotou personally ordered the four-person team that was the best at probing and camouflage, and asked them to set off to explore the road first and blend into Beirong.
The rest of them were once again disguised as caravans of caravans, which traversed the borders of nations and made dangerous money and were the least susceptible to suspicion.
Shen Xingwan quickly assigned the identities of everyone, Lin Jiaotou was known as Lin Niang to the outside world, and he was the chief steward of the caravan with rich experience, and after the death of his husband, he ran the caravan alone.
Shen Ruoyan called Lin Yan her own daughter, Shen Xingwan and Liyan are a pair of brothers and sisters, orphans adopted by Lin Niang, and have followed the caravan since childhood.
It's hard to open your mouth once, "Then what will I call in the future?" ”
"Your name is Lin Hu, and my name is Lin Lu." Shen Xing said late.
"Why is yours so good-sounding, mine so earthy...", he was disgusted and dissatisfied, he always felt that Shen Xingwan was deliberate.
Shen Xingwan said without changing his face, "Our current character is a caravan that deals with the three sects and nine streams to discuss life, of course the name must be down-to-earth, the deer and tiger are all animals, and it sounds like the name of a brother and sister." ”
I still didn't like the name, and I couldn't talk about her, so I just went to the yard to practice swords.
They stayed in this town for about five days, and a wave of people went to buy goods, and the caravan could not be empty.
The other wave is responsible for messing around the town and finding out all kinds of news. Since you want to load a caravan, you can't show your stuff as soon as you open your mouth.
Five days later, a group of people set out and began to approach the border with more than a dozen truckloads of goods.
Most of the medicines that are in short supply at the border are now in short supply, as well as daily necessities such as salt. The whole caravan seems to be small in scale, but it looks very sophisticated in terms of the goods it carries, and it can make money.
They even encountered other caravans on the third day, most of them camped in the wilderness to rest.
Everyone is an old man who has gone south and north, and the meat is roasted and the wine is drunk, and the surface is very happy and happy.
The largest caravan had more than 100 people, and when the family was surnamed Zhang, everyone called him Zhang Dangjia. The other caravan was not large, and when the family was very young, everyone called him Du Lang.
Lin Niang said with some worry, "I don't know what the situation is at the border gate, and it is not easy for our orphans and widows to beg for food." ”
Zhang Dangjia took a puff of leaf flue and said, "It is said that many people have begun to flee, and prices over there are skyrocketing, if things can be sold, they can make a profit." ”
The three of them seemed to be exchanging news on the surface, but Shen Xingwan listened clearly from the sidelines, everyone was on guard, they were all old foxes who didn't leak.
That Du Lang asked, "In which direction are you going, if you stop by the way, you can go together, and the road is safe." ”
Zhang Dangjia said with a smile, "It depends on the situation, if the fight is fierce, we will not dare to enter the city." ”
Lin Niang also said, "Our side is a small caravan begging for food, and we don't dare to take risks." ”
Everyone tacitly has reservations, after all, the world is sinister. It is not uncommon for caravans to kill people and steal goods.
Du Lang smiled, "I want to enter Beirong to get a big ticket." ”
"Du Lang is so bold." Lin Niang praised.
Soon the place to live in the evening was set up, and Shen Ruoyan came over and shouted, "Mother, sister, let's rest, I have to get up and hurry tomorrow morning." ”
Lin Niang stood up and patted the ash on her body, "It's not early, we went to sleep." ”
If you live in the wilderness, you must have someone to keep vigil.
Liyan was assigned to take people to keep watch in the middle of the night, and he sat by the fire with a large knife, looking menacing.
Shen Xingwan and the three of them entered the tent, and Shen Xingwan's face was made of the special potion of cicada clothes, and the skin was yellow, which was very consistent with the image of a woman running around.
Lin Niang lowered her voice and said, "That Du Lang feels that he is paying too much attention to Beirong. ”
In the small talk just now, he has been bringing the topic to Beirong intentionally or unintentionally.
"Let's wait and see what happens." Shen Xingwan said, "Let's see what he's going to do." ”
As long as she doesn't take the initiative to trouble them, she doesn't bother to care. What they have to do now is to get through the border and find a way to blend into Beirong.
There were night watchmen sent by the three caravans sitting around the fire, and the people of the Du family's caravan talked a lot, and they kept talking to Liyi.
It's a pity that he doesn't talk much, especially to outsiders, no matter what the other party says, he sits there and doesn't say a word.
The other party couldn't hold back, "Could it be that Brother Lin is mute?" ”
"I just don't want to talk, you're noisy..."
