It was slightly dark, and a group of wagons and horses continued to move forward.

"Little brother, haven't you eaten yet?" A voice came, and Zheng Ze looked back.

The old man smiled and handed over a bag of dry food, and then rubbed his hands, "It seems that the little brother doesn't travel often, and if he doesn't eat something, I'm afraid he won't be able to last until noon!" ”

I took the cloth package, and found that there were some sun-dried pieces of meat in it, and I picked up a piece and put it in my mouth, which was very salty.

"Thank you, uncle."

Hearing this, the old man smiled and raised his whip to throw it at the buffalo beside him, making its pace a little faster. While smiling, he said: "It's not easy to go out, it's not easy to go out, help each other." ”

Zheng Ze nodded and affirmed the old man's words.

This was a merchant team he met on the way, and Zheng Ze had a preliminary understanding of him through talking with the other party.

His name is Li Da, and he has been doing this for some years.

The merchant industry is everywhere, and it is nothing more than buying goods from one place at a very low price and transporting them to another place where there is a high demand and selling them at a high price.

If you want to make more money, it depends on the market situation, and more importantly, the way of sports.

Encountering a route infested by bandits is like gambling for them as traders, either to make a quick buck or to not only take the capital in, but also to lose their lives.

However, generally speaking, those who do long-distance business, except for those big merchants, have some connections in the official face, and there are very few small merchants.

Most of the time it's the old guy who is talking, he's listening, he's trying to get more out of the conversation.

For example, South Korea itself is very developed in commerce, after all, it is located in the center of the seven countries, and there are many merchants from all countries.

In South Korea, all other unique rarities are also highly sought after, and some people can earn enough money to spend in their lives on this one-time basis.

At that time, Zheng Ze watched Old Man Li say this in a tone full of envy, and it was obvious that he had not encountered that kind of opportunity.

"Little brother, what's wrong with your wife, the road ahead is not very easy to walk, it may be a little bumpy, don't get in the way?" The old man glanced at the carriage beside Zheng Ze and said with some concern.

Zheng Ze smiled, "It's not in the way, her body is not so delicate." When the next Zhuangzi rests, I will boil some medicine for her to drink. ”

After Flame Lingji fell into a coma, he went to the healer, who said that she was in a state of mind and that there was nothing wrong with her, so he prescribed him some soothing medicine.

Zheng Ze was still a little worried, so he found another doctor, and after getting the same conclusion, he grabbed the medicine according to the prescription.

Running into a caravan on the way, he bought a carriage and went with them, considering that it was not safe for him to travel with Flame Spirit Ji alone, and that he needed to know some news.

"Uncle, I heard you say that some mountain roads are rugged and difficult to navigate, and there are bandits making trouble, we shouldn't run into gangsters along the way, right?" Zheng Ze asked with a smile.

The old man shook his head, his expression relaxed, "That's not going to happen, little brother, don't worry, it's Zheng Cheng in front, and you can reach the capital in two steps, how can anyone dare to look for trouble on this fast ground without opening their eyes." ”

Zheng Ze thinks about it, although this world is very chaotic, it is not so chaotic.

"I didn't want to ask before, little brother, are you going to go to your relatives?" The old man asked casually.

Zheng Ze glanced at him and said quietly: "Yes, my brother has a half-official position in Xinzheng, I didn't just get married, so my brother passed on a message and found something to do." ”

Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in the old man's eyes, and his smile became even kinder, "This feeling is good, what does the little brother want to buy in the future, even if you come to the old man and me, I will definitely give you the fairest price!" ”

Zheng Ze nodded, "Then thank you, uncle." ”

……

Just like the old man said, after all, in the vicinity of the royal city, there is still basic order.

There was no danger along the way, and arrived in Xinzheng safely, and when he met Zhuangzi on the way to rest, Zheng Ze would decoct the medicine for Yan Lingji to take, and after two days, although she was still in a coma, her complexion was obviously much better.

When he met the city guard, he saved a lot of trouble with the caravan to deal with. It looked like they were already familiar with each other, and they didn't check the flame spirit in the carriage much, which made Zheng Ze breathe a sigh of relief.

After entering the city and giving the old man Li some money as a thank-you gift, he parted ways with the caravan.

Immediately found a post house, and took the Flame Spirit Ji here to rest for a while.

At this time, the importance of Flame Spirit Ji to him was highlighted.

Along the way, guarding the beautiful woman who was unconscious, without strong force, he was always worried that an accident would happen, such as jumping out and shouting that this road was driven by me, or encountering a bad guy who saw that he had money on him, and had bad intentions, and even more so that people could see that Flame Lingji was interested......

If Flame Spirit Ji is sober, he only needs to deal with her relationship; And now, he is very insecure about the unknown dangers.

Strong mental power? It's not like you can be hacked to death with a single knife.

Right now, he plans to stay here for the time being, guarding the Flame Spirit Ji to wake up.

Thinking so, the little guy in the post house came over to remind him that the medicine was ready, and Zheng Ze hid the bag of money and went downstairs to get the medicine.

The spoon was made of porcelain tiles, and he didn't expect to use any good utensils, so he stirred the potion in the bowl evenly, and the smell of Chinese medicine came to his nose.

He sat in front of the bed and looked at Flame Lingji with her eyes closed, the difference between this woman when she was awake and when she was unconscious was quite big.

When she is awake, a smile can make people think of it, and she can't stop hooking people, but now that she is in a coma, she has a quiet beauty and wants to make people feel pity.

He put the spoon to his lips, felt the approximate temperature, put the bowl on the bedside table without being too hot, took out a handkerchief from the cuff and put it under her neck, and slowly helped her up.

Even if she sat up straight, the handkerchief would not fall because of the angle.

In this way, Zheng Ze supported her body from her back with one hand, fed her medicine with a spoon with the other, and tried the temperature by himself every time.

Before that, he had to feed three times a day, and now he is proficient.

After a bowl of medicine was put down, Zheng Ze slowly put her body down, and then wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.

"Hey, it's still so good to sleep, and you don't worry about me doing something to you. Wake up early, I've never done so much to take care of people in my life. Died of starvation......" Zheng Ze muttered to himself.

After finishing all this, Zheng Ze also felt that he was hungry, and along the way, he was frightened and scared, and he didn't eat well, now that he has settled down for the time being, let's go down and get some food for himself.

Now he only hopes that Flame Spirit Ji can wake up sooner, and in the meantime, he can try to find out about the news of the outside world.

Tidy up the sides of the bed, cover the quilt for Flame Spirit Ji by the way, and then push open the door and go downstairs.

However, when the door squeaked shut, a pair of smart and seductive eyes quietly opened.
