Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Bandit

Early the next morning, before Cheng Yuxi walked out of the inn, he was stopped by Mr. Yang.

"Miss Cheng, who was okay last night?" Mr. Yang made a gesture at Cheng Yuxi, and then asked very politely: "There seemed to be some contradictions in the hall of the inn last night, I heard the guys below say, Miss Cheng, you are also there, are you scared?" ”

How could she be frightened, she is not the kind of weak daughter.

Although he thought so in his heart, Cheng Yuxi still nodded and said, "It's a little bit." ”

Mr. Yang smiled helplessly, as if he wanted to persuade Cheng Yuxi to retract his idea of going to Qiandao Lake, but at this time, Cheng Yuxi suddenly asked, "I don't know if Mr. Yang came to look for me this time, what do you want to do?" ”

"Ah, I almost forgot about business." Mr. Yang smiled helplessly, and then said, "That's the case, didn't Miss Cheng say that she was going to Qiandao Lake before?" When I was drinking with my old friend yesterday, I learned that my old friend was also going to Qiandao City to do business, he is a person of very noble character, I thought, if Miss Cheng doesn't dislike it, she can follow my old friend to Qiandao City. ”

Cheng Yuxi was worried about how to find the convoy to Qiandao Lake, but Mr. Yang directly told Cheng Yuxi about it, and after she heard it, she was in a better mood, and then said: "Then thank you Mr. Yang!" ”

Mr. Yang hurriedly waved his hand.

"I wonder when the convoy you're talking about is going to leave?" Cheng Yuxi asked, thinking that it was best to set off today, she didn't have a good impression of the people in the last three days, and always felt that they came to the next three days specifically to do something, and Cheng Yuxi didn't want to have anything to do with them at all.

After thinking about it, Mr. Yang said, "The time may be a little tight, it should be noon." ”

Cheng Yuxi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled lightly: "It's not tight, it's not tight at all." ”

Back in the inn, Cheng Yuxi simply packed up the things he had at hand, and then came to his old friend under the recommendation of Mr. Yang.

His old friend's name is Liu Ming, and his family seems to be in the jewelry business, this time he wants to go to Qiandao City to conduct a jewelry trade, after seeing Cheng Yuxi, Liu Ming was a little surprised, he couldn't believe that such a weak woman was going to Qiandao Lake alone?

Liu Ming looked very gentle, he was holding a fan in his hand, and then asked, "Miss Cheng, are you really going to Qiandao City?" If you don't make a mistake in the recent past, it seems that there is a lot of chaos in Qiandao City. ”

Cheng Yuxi was helpless, thinking to herself, why did everyone have to tell her this sentence again? After she explained her previous remarks to Mr. Yang, this made Liu Ming feel at ease.

Mr. Yang also came over and told Liu Ming to take care of Cheng Yuxi, and about half an hour later, Liu Ming's convoy was about to set off.

Liu Ming's fleet is a little smaller than Mr. Yang's, but the environment is very good, and he even specially arranged a carriage for Cheng Yuxi.

The convoy gradually walked out of Pengcheng and began to set off in the direction of Qiandao City.

In addition to Cheng Yuxi, there were also some people in Liu Ming's convoy who also went to Qiandao Lake or got off in the direction of Qiandao Lake, and a group of people were playing in the back and seemed to have a good time.

Cheng Yuxi didn't feel noisy, she lifted the curtain and looked at the scenery outside, and then thought: Looking at the weather, there should never be the same thunder as before, right?

But how did that burst of thunder be? This level of vision is not uncommon in the first three days, so why do they suddenly appear in the next three days, and what does it mean?

And those Shadow Clan who appeared in Pengcheng......

Cheng Yuxi vaguely felt that those shadow clans must have a connection with the appearance of those thunderbolts, and the mahogany box in her hand seemed to have something to do with the thunderbolts.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yuxi gently stroked the square box through his package, and then thought: "Anyway, it's better to keep a low profile now." ”

After the convoy had been traveling for about an hour, it stopped at the nearby post station to take a break, usually for the horses to drink water and eat grass, while the others came down to sit down and have a cup of tea.

Cheng Yuxi was really a little stuffy sitting in the carriage, so he stepped down from the carriage, ordered a pastry and a pot of herbal tea at the tea stall, and drank it in small sips here.

There was a little girl in the same company, after seeing the pastries on Cheng Yuxi's table, her eyes were straight, and her longing gaze attracted Cheng Yuxi's attention, she looked at the simple fabric on the little girl's body, and after thinking about it, she called her over.

"What's your name?" The little girl's defense was not very high, perhaps because Cheng Yuxi didn't look very vicious, or because of the pastries on her table.

The little girl seemed to be a little squirming, and she whispered, "My name is Yaya." ”

"Yaya?" Cheng Yuxi read the little girl's name again, and then said, "You have been looking at me before, do you want to eat the pastries here?" ”

Yaya nodded shyly, and then she cautiously turned her head to look at her mother not far away, and then said in a low voice: "I also want my mother to buy it for me, but my mother said that I haven't found my father in Qiandao City yet, so I won't buy it yet, and then let me buy it when I find my father." ”

Cheng Yuxi nodded, and then pushed a few pastries in front of him in front of the little girl, and said, "Sister, I have bought too many pastries now, I can't finish eating them, and I will be thrown away in the future, are you willing to busy me eating these pastries?" ”

The little girl didn't expect that there would be such a good thing in the world, she looked at Cheng Yuxi with wide eyes, then nodded excitedly and said, "Okay! ”

Although she really wanted to eat these pastries, she did not gobble up the pastries, but chewed them slowly, and it could be seen that her mother must have raised her very well.

After a brief rest at the post station, Liu Ming's convoy set off again, but this time, Cheng Yuxi obviously felt something abnormal, that is, the convoy seemed to be moving much faster, and everyone was very vigilant, she even saw some people with knives around their waists!

What's going on?

When the convoy marched into a dense forest, Cheng Yuxi looked at the dense woods around him, and suddenly a sense of foreboding surged in his heart.

Sure enough, with the neighing of horses in front, the entire convoy stopped, and all the people were very nervous and huddled together, looking around vigilantly.

And those with knives at their waists pulled out the knives in their hands at this moment, looking coldly at both sides of the road.

Cheng Yuxi's heart was cold, and he thought, "Could it be that there are robberies in this place?" ”

Her guess was correct, and when the convoy had stopped for a short time, a large number of people suddenly poured out of the dense forest on both sides of the road, and after shooting arrows at the carriage and seriously injuring a few men, one of the men with a one-sided blindfold shouted, "I drove this way!" I planted this tree! If you want to live from now on...... Hmph, stay to buy road money! ”

Liu Ming also knew that the bandits here were not very easy to provoke, so he shouted with a solemn face: "You can hand it over!" We're just a normal fleet! There are a lot of women and children in the car, and we won't do anything to you! How much do you guys want! ”

Cheng Yuxi quietly opened the corner of the curtain, and saw the one-eyed bearded man standing at the front of the carriage, holding a machete in his hand. I look at the stuff in your last wagon, it looks pretty heavy, huh? It's a long way and it's not easy to bring, so I'll help you take it, what do you think? ”

Liu Ming's face changed suddenly, he didn't expect this thief to open his mouth so loudly, and he actually planned to detain the entire carriage directly?

Seeing this, a man next to him shouted angrily: "Master Liu! He's really a lion with a big mouth! We can't afford him! ”

When the thief heard the man's words, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he shouted coldly, "What? Do you want to disobey me? ”

Liu Ming frowned, and when he was thinking about whether to agree to the conditions of this bandit, some of the bandits' minions next to him rushed over directly and forcibly lifted the cloth covering the carriage!

Cheng Yuxi secretly thought: It's not good.

There were several large boxes on top of the carriage, and after the minions opened the boxes with almost brutal methods, their eyes almost popped out when they looked at the various jewels in the boxes.

"Boss! Jewelry! This convoy is for jewelry!! One of the minions shouted heartbreakingly.

The bandit leader at the front also widened his eyes when he heard this, he was overjoyed, squinted his eyes at Liu Ming, and then turned to the people behind him and shouted, "Tie them all up the mountain for me!" ”

The other minions shouted excitedly.

At the same time, the thugs with knives also scolded, and rushed directly to fight with those bandits, but they were outnumbered, and they were all used to robbery, and it didn't take long for those thugs to die and be wounded.

Liu Ming really couldn't support it anymore, he gritted his teeth and looked at the pool of blood next to him, and then shouted in a trembling voice: "Stop!" I'll go with you! I'll go with you! ”
