Chapter Twenty-Three: Encounter with the Bandits
Ji Ye saw a caravan in front of him, so he wanted to step forward and ask if he could take the three of them.
Ji Ye ran over and saw some caravan guards chatting, Ji Ye looked at a person who looked like a steward with his head bowed and asked, "This big brother, is your caravan going to Yuanfeng City?"
Ji Ye asked very politely, and the person in charge heard someone asking him, raised his head and looked at some Ji Ye and asked, "Yes, what is the matter with this little brother?"
"That's right, a few of us want to take your caravan to Yuanfeng City by the way, I don't know if it's okay?" Ji Ye finished speaking, pointing his finger at the two Purple Shadows who were still walking behind.
When the steward heard Ji Ye's purpose, he also looked at Zi Ying'er and the two, and then said, "Little brother, I can take you on a ride, but I still have to get the consent of my young lady."
Hearing what the person in charge said, Ji Ye had no choice but to say politely: "Then please go and talk to your family?"
When Ji Ye was talking to the person in charge, in a carriage in front of the caravan, a woman about twenty years old was looking at Ji Ye who was talking, this woman also had a beautiful appearance, a delicate face, a pair of Danfeng eyes, a small nose, ruddy lips, graceful posture, a bumpy figure, exuding a trace of mature charm, at this time her eyes were staring at Ji Ye.
Suddenly, a voice interrupted her viewing, "Miss, a young man said that we can take them for a ride, they are also going to Yuanfeng City" The voice was really the steward who was talking to Ji Ye just now.
Hearing the voice, the woman said, "Is it the one in purple?"
"Yes," said the steward's voice from outside the carriage.
"Then give him a ride," the woman said flatly, and then stopped talking.
The steward returned to Ji Ye's side when he heard his young lady's consent, looked at Ji Ye and said calmly: "Little brother, our young lady has agreed that you will go to Yuanfeng City with our caravan?"
Ji Ye thanked him when he agreed: "Thank you for this big brother, and please take me to thank your young lady?"
"You're welcome," said the person in charge.
Ji Ye asked again, "I don't know what this big brother's name is?"
The person in charge said frankly and heartily: "My name is Zhang Hong, if you don't mind, call me Brother Zhang, right?"
"Then the little brother is better to obey his fate, call you Brother Zhang" Ji Ye said politely, and then asked: "I don't know if Brother Zhang has more carriages here, I want to borrow one"
Zhang Hong naturally knew the reason why Ji Ye wanted the carriage, and immediately said: "Little brother, you're welcome, we just have more than one free carriage here" said and pointed to a carriage next to the woman's carriage just now and said: "That's it, it's a little simple."
Ji Ye hurriedly said, "We don't mind"
"In that case, then you can go to that carriage," Zhang Hong said.
Ji Ye returned to Ziying'er and said, "I agreed with the people of this caravan, they took us to Yuanfeng City and gave us a carriage, now let's go?"
Hearing Ji Ye's words, Zi Ying'er said "thank you", Ji Ye didn't refuse, and then walked towards the carriage, followed by Zi Ying'er and Xiaoru.
When he came to the carriage, Ji Ye smelled a fresh fragrance, Ji Ye looked at the carriage next to him, this fragrance was emanating from the carriage, Ji Ye muttered at the corner of his mouth: "This should be a woman's carriage"
"That's it" Purple Shadow asked when she saw that Himeya seemed to be saying something, and at the same time she also asked about the fresh smell, and her eyes also looked at the carriage next to her.
"It's nothing, you guys get in the car!" Himeya said, turning around.
"Oh" said and got into the car with Xiaoru, and Ji Ye left here to find Zhang Hong.
After Ji Ye left, Xiao Ru in the carriage said, "Miss, there is a woman in that carriage."
Purple Shadow nodded and said, "It's nothing, maybe it's a caravan like us?"
"Oh," Xiaoru nodded.
Ji Ye came to Zhang Hong's side, and there were some other guards, seeing Ji Ye coming, Zhang Hong said to the guards who were seated: "Everyone, this young man is the one who took our convoy by the way, please bear with me a little longer."
The guards looked at Himeya and nodded, but didn't say anything.
Himeya looked at the many guards and introduced themselves and said, "In the next Himeya"
The guards nodded and continued to chat, but Zhang Hong did not speak, looking at the sky with a heavy face.
Ji Ye looked at Zhang Hong's face a little abnormal, and asked, "Brother Zhang seems to have something on his mind, I don't know if you can tell me?"
Hearing Ji Ye ask himself, Zhang Hong took a deep breath and said: "Little brother Ji Ye, do you know, on the road to Yuanfeng City, there is a place called Black Canyon, where there lives a group of bandits who specialize in robbing houses and houses, specializing in robbing passing caravans and pedestrians, in the past, we would consciously give them some money in order not to conflict with them, and they also politely let us go, but this time it may not work, because we brought our young lady this time"
Hearing Zhang Hong say what was on his mind, Ji Ye asked, "Why is this, can't you give them some money and let them let you go?"
When Zhang Hong heard this, he said: "That bandit boss in the Black Canyon is notoriously lustful, if I see Miss, I'm afraid they will make it difficult."
"That's right," Ji Ye said, and then thought about Purple Shadow, what would she do if those bandits wanted to forcibly take her away.
Thinking of this, Ji Ye was a little upset, how could he think of her?
At this moment, Zhang Hong said: "Little brother Ji Ye, you are also with two little girls, you have to be careful."
Seeing Zhang Hong talking with a concerned face, Ji Ye said: "I will do this, thank you Brother Zhang for your concern"
At this time, the caravan had already begun to move, Ji Ye had been chatting with Zhang Hong, and the two quickly became acquainted with each other, chatting about a lot of things, and Ji Ye also increased a lot of understanding, such as how his territory was divided.
Three hours later, the sky had entered the noon period, the sun was extraordinarily big, the hot sun shone on Ji Ye's face, his clothes were already soaked, and his forehead was full of beads of sweat, Ji Ye asked: "Brother Zhang, how far is it from Yuanfeng City now?"
"There are still twenty kilometers, and there are still five kilometers to the Black Canyon," Zhang Hong also wiped the sweat drops on his forehead, looked at the road and said.
"Oh"
"Everyone, be careful, there's Black Canyon ahead, cheer me up," Zhang Hong shouted loudly as he looked at the sweaty guards.
"Yes," a group of guards replied loudly, a neat and powerful voice.
Ji Ye looked at these guards, most of them were tempered by the strength of the sevenfold body, and several of them had already reached the Yuan realm.
Ji Ye looked at Zhang Hong and asked, "These guards seem to be good?"
Zhang Hong nodded: "These are all cultivated by our Qin Chamber of Commerce, and we are absolutely loyal to the Chamber of Commerce, and it is also appropriate to have a little momentum."
Ji Ye asked again: "I wonder if your Chamber of Commerce has done a wide range of business?"
Zhang Hong didn't shake his head, and then said: "Our Chamber of Commerce is indeed very big, there are branches of our Chamber of Commerce in various places on the mainland, and there are many types of business in our Chamber of Commerce, and we also have an auction house, and there is one in Yuanfeng City."
Himeya nodded.
"Steward Zhang, there's Black Canyon ahead," one of the guards said loudly.
Ji Ye and Zhang Hong glanced at each other, and Zhang Hong said, "Do you want to go down with me?"
Himeya nodded, then stepped out of the car and came to the front of the convoy.
In front of is a canyon, the stone walls of the canyon are some pitch-black stones, the stone walls of the canyon are 100 zhang high, the length can not see the end at a glance, and the valley is not very clear.
"Forward," Zhang Hong said, and the caravan walked into the valley.
Himeya also walked ahead with the caravan on foot, and already in the valley, Himeya felt a hint of cold wind.
The rustling wind swam through the canyon, and a group of guards watched the surroundings vigilantly, and the caravan moved slowly.
The caravan crossed half of the canyon, and everyone thought that this time it had passed safely, who knows......
A series of sounds rang out, and the ground trembled.
The guards looked at their feet, and the stones on the ground jumped upward, and Himeya also felt the tremor of the ground, and then looked ahead, and a group of people on tall horses appeared in front of them.
A group of people exudes a brutal and bloody aura, and they are dressed in different ways, some wearing samurai clothes, leopard skins, and tiger skins......
There was a powerful aura exuding from his body, especially the three people in front of him.
The one on the left is a man in a black leather coat, holding a huge long knife in his hand, exuding the strength of the middle stage of entering the Yuan Realm, with a fierce face on his face.
On the right is a relatively thin middle-aged man, with a goatee, who looks a little thief-eyed, holding a fan, but his body exudes the strength of the early stage of entering the Yuan Realm, and a pair of small eyes look at Ji Ye and them.
In the middle is a man wearing a tiger skin, with a round jade earring on his ears, with a fat body, big shoulders and a thick waist, a face full of fat, his eyes are a little dull, and his face is a little pale.
Ji Ye observed these three people, and at the same time guessed in his heart that these three should be the three masters.
"Stop me in front," said the man in tiger skin in the middle of the horse, in a very unkind tone.
"I don't know what is going on with you," Zhang Hong said with a relaxed attitude.
"Of course you have to pay the toll?" said the man in black on the left.
"Don't you know the rules of our Black Canyon," said the emaciated man on the right.
"Whoosh" Zhang Hong threw out a storage bag.
The tiger-skinned man in the middle of the "bang" caught it, opened it, and saw a large team of yuan stones inside, which he put into his storage ring, but he had no intention of letting it go.
Then he tapped his finger twice and said, "Leave these two carriages behind, and you can pass."
After saying that, the dozens of bandits behind him got out of the way.
When Zhang Hong saw such a situation, his face was gloomy, and he thought: Sure enough, I still found out.
Ji Ye's face was not good-looking, and a pair of eyes looked at the tiger-skinned man coldly.
Zhang Hong said: "The tiger head is in charge, we are willing to give you an extra 30,000 yuan stones, and you will let us go in large quantities, right?"
When the tiger-skinned man named Tiger Head heard that Zhang Hong actually disobeyed him, he immediately said irritably: "Give you a quarter of an hour, either you will leave or die here."
As soon as the tiger's voice fell, a road that had just been opened was fenced off again.
Zhang Hong looked at the more than twenty guards with a gloomy face, and immediately said, "I don't know what everyone's plans are?"
"Fight with them," a guard with a tempered ninefold strength immediately said indignantly.
"Yes, if you fight with them, how can our young lady fall into the hands of these beasts."
"Kill this group of bandits who don't know the height of the sky, let them know the power of our Qin Chamber of Commerce, and let them be bullied by us."
"I've put up with them for a long time"
............
A group of guards all spoke their minds, and most of the guards had the same opinion - fighting with them.
Zhang Hong looked at Ji Ye.
Ji Ye's face was cold, and he said coldly: "Kill"
For some reason, a nameless flame suddenly appeared in Himeya's heart, and now she was about to vent in the morning.
"Since this is the case, then we will kill these bandits who hurt the heavens and reason, and also save snacks for the future passing," Zhang Hong said, and at the same time exuded a powerful aura on his body.
Not far away, the people of the Black Canyon were driving Himeya and them, completely unaware that Himeya was about to kill them by surprise.
