The weasels I saw before were all yellow and slender, but what I saw just now was not, round and round like a little raccoon, and the color was still golden and reflected in the moonlight in the snow.

"This weasel is really fine, and it has its own beauty."

Qian Yan sighed.

The corner of Scandal Yan's mouth twitched, "Spirits and demons are almost the same, with Taoism, you can change your body shape according to your preferences, this is not like turning into a human form, it needs to go through the transformation thunderstorm to a certain extent, just change your body shape to be tall, short, fat and thin."

Generally speaking, these spirits like to turn themselves into harmless appearances, just like demons like to transform into handsome men and beautiful women, which can be more confusing. ”

Qian Yan thought about the weasel's appearance just now, it was indeed quite confusing, if she saw it during the day, she would probably want to hug it.

"You just scared it away?"

Chou Chou shook his head, "No, it was the sound of knocking on the pot here that woke up many people, broke its spell, and went back to the formation to hide." ”

Qian Yan frowned, "Isn't that a tiger returning to the mountain?" That formation was also made by it? ”

Ugly: "No, it can't come up with such a high-level formation with its Taoism, and it should be its owner who puts this formation, and it should only be responsible for confusing people into the formation."

As for what to do with the person in there, we will not know until we catch it.

You can sleep a little longer, there should be no problem tonight, those people are already awake, I'll watch over there, and I'll catch it when it comes back up. ”

Qian Yan looked at her watch, no wonder she was still a little sleepy, it turned out that it was only two o'clock in the middle of the night.

She put down the sleeping child, and then got out of the carriage lightly, and the Fang family's father and son and the Chen family's coachman also returned.

Fang Dayou handed her the copper basin, and Qian Yan took it and put it in the box at the back of the carriage.

Fortunately, the current copper basin is not as thin as in later generations, otherwise it is estimated that it will be deformed even if it is not knocked out.

"Second Brother Fang, how are those people? You okay? ”

Although she had already seen it with her divine sense, she still had to ask, otherwise it would seem strange.

Fang Dayou shook his head, "It should be fine, everyone is back, there is no one missing, and now he is packing his things and preparing to go overnight."

How do we arrange it? Do you want to go with them? They all said that this place was too evil to stay here. ”

"Uncle Fang, what do you say?"

Qian Yan looked at Fang Zhengyi, she didn't care, even if she was in a hurry, she could rest in the carriage, but the big bears had to work harder.

Fang Zhengyi looked at the people who were making a commotion on the side, then looked at the direction of the mountain, sighed and said, "Let's go too, there are indeed some evil sects here, and we won't be able to sleep well if we stay." ”

Chen Shijin also walked over, "Girl, Uncle Fang, Brother Fang, are you leaving?" Can you get us on the same path? ”

The father and son of the Fang family looked at Qian Yan, they didn't care, the official road was just this, and if they didn't agree, they would have to leave.

Qian Yan nodded and smiled: "Okay, those people are also leaving, let's hurry up and clean up, so as not to be left behind." ”

At this time, it is still the front and middle positions that are the most secure, and who knows if there will be any accidents if they fall behind.

Even if Qian Yan is not afraid, she doesn't want to give someone a break at night, there is still a difference between volunteering to help and being forced.

Chen Shijin was very relieved when he heard them agree, he was already a little afraid, and he felt even more creepy when he was nagged by his mother's gods, and he couldn't stay here for a moment.

They were relatively easy to clean up here, and they didn't have much to come out, so they just put away the tarpaulin and planks, put them on the wagon, and put out the fire.

The fires were extinguished as soon as they were buried with snow, and the charcoal inside was dug out and put into baskets, where they were dried and still usable.

Seeing that Chen Shijin and the old lady were so cold that they spoke in a very nasal voice, and it seemed that their noses were blocked, she pretended to bring them a charcoal basin from the box in the back, and told him not to seal the carriage too tightly, there should be no problem.

Chen Shijin made a gesture for her, "Thank you so much, girl, we are going to freeze to death all the way and this half of the night, and the soup lady will be cold for a while, and it will be useless at all."

How much silver is this charcoal pot? I thought I bought it with the girl. ”

Tilt Yan waved her hand, "No, this is what I eliminated after I bought the charcoal stove, it's not worth a few dollars, you can just use it." ”

Chen Shijin thanked him again, and shouted to Uncle Gui, asking him not to put out all the fires and keep some in the charcoal basin.

Uncle Gui looked at the charcoal basin, took out a copper basin from their luggage, put some snow in it, put the charcoal basin in the copper basin, and then shoveled the charcoal fire into it.

Qian Yan nodded secretly in her heart, this noble uncle has a lot of common sense in life, so he is not afraid of the high temperature under the charcoal basin igniting the carriage board, she also thought of this before, so she put another charcoal basin under the charcoal stove.

Now it is a tile that is directly used, and the bottom is separated from the surrounding area, and the Fang family's car is also made like this, so it is much safer.

They have few things and are emotionally stable, so they pack up much faster than those who are frightened.

Directly driving into the carriage and leaving, they walked to the front, the Fang family's father and son took the lead, she was in the middle, and the Chen family's carriage was behind.

Of the three cars, only the Fang family's father and son's car had torches, and they had to lead the way in front, so the two of them were not lit, just follow the car in front.

Chen Shijin's carriage was indeed much warmer with a charcoal basin, so he opened the door of the carriage in front of him halfway, and asked Uncle Gui to tie the tarpaulin in front of him, and surrounded himself, just exposing his head and hands, so that it could be ventilated again, and Uncle Gui would be warmer.

Seeing their operations with her divine sense, she felt that these were all smart people, and she would soon be able to make herself more comfortable under limited conditions.

She felt that the father and son of the Fang family could also learn this design, one of them would sit comfortably inside, and the other would freeze to death outside.

She didn't need it herself, anyway, she could just shrink into the carriage and stay, and she didn't have to bother.

The three of them walked out of two miles, and the people behind them were on the road, and behind them were the other two carriages, probably because there were fewer people to pack up faster.

It was followed by the same ox cart from the previous road, followed by another ox cart, then the caravan with the dart master, and another ox cart, and the ox cart that pulled people.

Those people are the most loose, they don't have a head, they do everything in a mess, either this thing is wrong, or that thing is knocked over, and the result is that everyone else is set off, they haven't done it yet, and they go straight to the end.

Fortunately, the father and son of the Fang family have walked this road a few times, but they don't have to worry about going wrong, but the road is slippery and slower when it is dark at night.

The ugly ugly kept staring at the formation, always ready to catch the weasel, but I don't know if it was because they left, and the weasel never came out again until dawn.

After walking for a few hours, about forty or fifty miles, I felt that it should be far enough, and it was noon again, and the spirit should not come out again to confuse people.

One after another, some people are looking for a suitable place to rest, and they have to eat something, otherwise they really can't bear it.

Most of these people thought that they would travel at night and rest during the day, so that they would be safer.

Whether it is ancient or modern, most people feel that the yang energy is the most abundant at noon, and the demons and monsters dare not come out at this time, whether it is beheading or going to the grave, they are all chosen at this moment.

Therefore, these people chose this time to rest, and they felt that they could sleep at ease at this time.

The father and son of the Fang family and Chen Shijin also thought so, slowed down and said to Qian Yan, and began to pay attention to the open space on the side of the road, preparing to find a suitable place.

It doesn't matter if she is resting or on the road.

In the end, the three of them found a place that was somewhat similar to before, a triangle, larger than the previous place, and there were no trees in between.

It's still in the same order as before, except that this time an extra piece of tarpaulin is used to connect it between the carriages, in addition to blocking the wind, mainly to block the view of pedestrians on the official road.

The temperature at noon is much higher than at night, so Qian Yan and the Fang family father and son are also cooking lunch outside, they are going to stew a mutton radish and stir-fry a Chinese cabbage, add more water to the mutton, and drink some hot soup.

The better thing than before is that there is a water source nearby, and there is a small stream in the woods to the south, which must have flowed down from the stone crevice in the mountain, and the temperature is high, and it has not frozen.

This is much cleaner than burning snow water for cooking, and you can also burn more to cool down and drink on the road.

Chen Shijin and they also made a stewed mutton, pure meat, without adding anything to it, the staple food was baked cakes, and they also cooked a pot of millet porridge.

Qian Yan also cooked rice porridge in the carriage, in order to cover for the child's breastfeeding, she now in addition to pure breastfeeding, she will also put the milk into the porridge to mix, and the little one will also eat a few bites.

After eating, the things were packed up, and a few people rested separately, the sky was bright and there was a sense of security, plus they were tired for a long night, and everyone almost slept deeply, except for Qianyan.

She made up for a sleep on the road, there were ugly and ugly ingots, she slept soundly and ruthlessly, even the child peed halfway was ugly, she didn't wake up, and now she is very energetic, not sleepy at all.

So he began to ask how the ugly formation was doing, and whether there were any bandits in the vicinity and on the road after that.

Ugly: "No, except for the missing hunters before, according to the Fang family's father and son, those bandits came from another mountain, just to fish in troubled waters."

I've explored before, and there is no trace of suspected bandits within a hundred miles of here, and I suspect that those bandits have come, but they have also been brought into that formation. ”

Tilting Yan lay down decadently, "Then it can only depend on how the formation goes, I still think that the two of us will give those thieves a black meal, empty their nests for him, and then pack them up and send them to the official office, now they are all gone."

You haven't found any cottages in the mountains around here? ”

Ugly Ugly shook his head, "No, there are a few hunters on the mountain in the west, but they are real hunters, and they don't want to come to the official road to rob in winter."

Those hunters all live in the real mountains, and the distance between them is very long, and they all live their own little lives and do not get together.

As for the real thieves that the Fang family's father and son said before, they are not necessarily the kind of people who occupy the mountain as kings, it is very likely that they usually have other professions and can cover for themselves. ”

Qian Yan suddenly remembered a movie she had watched, and said to Chouchou: "Look at whether there is such an empty courtyard in your Liuyuan County, where there are no people living in it, or there are only servants in it and no master at home."

Focus on seeing if there is a large amount of property hidden in it, and whether there are any soldiers in the official office and the county garrison who have not returned for a few days, I suspect that those bandits came out of the county seat. ”

Liuyuan County is the only way to go before entering the mountain, everyone will buy supplies in it, as long as you pay attention to patrolling in the city, it is too easy to know if there are fat sheep in it.

Then you can decide whether you want to come out and rob these people, and if you don't deserve it, you won't come out, and if it's worth it, you can take a trip, and even save on finding out the news and ambushing.

She remembered that the biggest mastermind behind that movie was the lord of that city, which should be similar to the county order or garrison of this county.

They all have people under their hands, and they can also help cover up, just like the mayor of Wangkou Town, isn't it just a robbery with a group of former soldiers.

Maybe it's the same here.

The scandal said that he probed his divine sense to Liuyuan County again, and looked at all the courtyards that seemed to be empty, especially underground.

After a long while, Chou Chou said, "Yanyan, your guess may be true, I found six courtyards in the city that have not been inhabited for a few days, and there are many treasures hidden in them, especially gold and silver, which are buried underground.

And you said that it was a coincidence or not, the yard we borrowed before was also one of them, and we didn't look at it at the time, of course, we didn't think of this at the time.

But you're probably only half right, I've probed the garrison and the prefectural command, and there's nothing suspicious about them.

It is said that if those thieves are their subordinates, shouldn't the money be in their hands, and if their subordinates are missing, they will also take away those belongings, how can they be placed in those courtyards? ”

Qian Yan didn't think so, "The money is only safe when it is placed there, and they don't necessarily know how those people disappeared, in case those people are caught, they won't expose themselves when they move those belongings."

Another is that those people are not necessarily missing, these are just our guesses based on those hunters and formations, maybe those people are on duty in the official offices or military camps in the city, but they just don't look down on our group of people who have left the city. ”

In their group, except for the caravan that hired the dart master, no one else looked like they were rich, and even if they had it at home, at least it didn't look like they had it with them.

She also looked at the caravan with her divine sense, and the cars were full of furs and medicinal herbs, saying that it was valuable, and it was also valuable, at least the price was very high when it was pulled to other places, but it was not worth much locally...... (End of chapter)
