The northwest was cold and dry, the wind was strong, and the exile team walked slowly, but they did suffer a lot.

But what Chen Qing cares about is not the body of the exile, but the speed of this turtle every day, when he will be able to reach Liangzhou.

As soon as the snow on the road stepped on a pit, walking, walking, Chen Qing suddenly sighed in his heart, and immediately stopped the advancing prisoner car.

"Come and see, there is no snow today, why are there fewer and fewer footsteps on this road!"

Chen Qing looked at the snow on the ground and said to his subordinates.

"It's really, head, there are traces of a carriage before, here...... Why not? ”

"Yes, since I went out in the morning, it hasn't snowed, so it stands to reason that it shouldn't be!"

"Everyone, pull aside, you go ahead and check first."

Chen Qing immediately shouted to the back.

When the team stopped, Shen Ru became curious, jumped off the carriage, and stepped forward to inquire about the situation.

"So, Lord Chen suspects that there are thieves on this official road?" Shen Ru is interested, and the kind of quarrel with Cui Ti is really not in line with her style of acting!

"At the moment, it seems highly likely."

Chen Qing's years of experience told him that this place was not normal.

"Moreover, it's not that I haven't encountered thieves before, the northwest is poor, and the so-called poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, so we must be cautious."

Shen Ru raised his eyes and looked ahead, there were mountains on both sides of the official road, white, if someone used the mountain as a cover to kill people and cross goods...... Well, it's hard to say!

"Head, look at these!" There was a shout from the official in front, and Shen Ru stepped forward with Chen Qing.

Isn't this an animal trap?

And this iron nail......

Shen Ru saw these things covered by shallow snow, and admired Chen Qing's insight.

She looked around and vaguely felt that someone was watching in the mountains and forests.

"One group went to the front to clear the roadblocks, and the others moved on."

Chen Qing immediately commanded.

Although the speed of walking slowed down again, Chen Qing's move ensured the safety of the exiles.

Flat snow on the ground, soon, left a long trace.

But it was as if the exile team was being targeted.

The presence of broken logs on the official road ahead prevented the team from moving on.

Chen Qing immediately asked the officials to work together to move the broken wood away, but the repeated roadblocks also made the whole team fall into panic.

When it was dark, the road ahead was long, and there was no trace of the post station.

"Head, are we going astray?"

Chen Qing also suspected that they had been led into the wrong way.

"Find a place to station, there may be accidents at night!"

Shen Ru and a group of exiles followed the official errand to stop on the spot, and this situation was not once or twice.

Those who should look for branches should find branches, and those who make fires will make fires, so that they will not freeze to death.

"Uncle Zhong, why didn't Fang Jin and Jade catch up?"

After stopping, Cui Ti's uneasiness in his heart magnified.

It stands to reason that it is not rare for Fang Jin to take Jade to find the doctor, and then follow their team.

But after a day, I didn't catch up.

Either they went the wrong way, or Fang Jin and they went wrong, no matter which possibility it was, it made Cui Ti panic in his heart.

"Miss, don't be impatient, this exile team is so huge, even if Fang Jin and they can't catch up for a while, they will definitely find us."

Uncle Zhong comforted Cui Ti, but in fact, he didn't know the bottom of his heart.

There are several of them, and Fang Jin is the best, protecting them all the way; Jade takes care of the lady's daily life; He was in charge of the carriage route.

If Fang Jin and Jade are missing...... Uncle Zhong's expression was a little solemn.

As the night deepened, everyone felt that their bodies were getting colder and colder, and even if there was a bonfire, it was difficult to dispel the cold.

The officials and messengers all wore thick winter clothes, and many of the exiles also had the warm clothes provided by Cui Ti before, and even if they didn't, they all shrunk together and tried to get as close to the bonfire as possible.

In the woods, there was always some cooing, and it was at this time that the change happened.

A group of men in thick animal clothes rushed out of the woods with their faces covered, weapons and torches.

A strange scream came from his mouth, which frightened the exiles.

The officials all took out their weapons and made a defensive stance.

"What do you want to do?"

Chen Qingxin mentioned his throat and asked, with a white temperament.

"The official escorts the exiles, you can't leave quickly!"

"Hand over the food and money, and let you live, otherwise, don't blame us for being polite."

The words with a thick accent came out of a man's mouth, which surprised Chen Qing.

This is the first time that the robbery has been carried out on the exile team.

"Are you mistaken, where did the outcasts get their food and money?"

An official opened his mouth and sneered, "You also have to look at the people who rob you!" ”

"The exiles have no money, but you officials do."

It was another man who spoke, and although he couldn't see his face, this man's words were much clearer.

Chen Qing was shocked, could it be that these people wanted to rob officials?

"Listen to the exiles, the heavens and the earth are unkind, and the traitors are in charge, do you want to be escorted to hard labor, or do you want to directly overthrow these officials and follow us up the mountain to be rogues?"

"Listen, everyone, don't be deceived, there will be a day of amnesty in the imperial court, if you fall into the grass, you will never be able to turn back!"

Chen Qing immediately made a decision and shouted loudly.

Shen Ru also heard it, it was the first time she had heard a robber say this.

"Dad, mother, don't go out in the carriage, I'll meet this group."

"Aru, be careful, don't be reckless!"

Shen Yan said worriedly.

These exiles used to be famous families, and they knew that what Chen Qing said was true, although it was desperate to become exiles, but once the case was overturned, or the saint granted amnesty to the world, they could all go home.

But if you escape, let alone wanted, you will lick blood from the knife in the future, and you won't be able to live this life.

Reasonable people cowered and couldn't figure it out, but it was clear that there were also people who were on the verge of collapse.

"Kill them, kill these officials!"

As soon as Shen Ru got out of the carriage, he saw that both sides had already moved.

"Be careful!" She saw that some exiles actually made a move on the official mission, is this a rebellion?

As she spoke, Shen Ru also quickly shot a flying knife at the rogue, of course, she didn't want anyone's life.

But the official who was reminded reacted and stabbed the offender on the spot.

Shen Ru's eyes widened, and it was her hesitation that made the bandit kill the official directly!

The scene was very chaotic, and there were still exiles who wanted to take the opportunity to escape, Shen Ru was about to shout, but saw a big knife slashing straight at her door.

Shen Ru immediately dodged, then turned over and kicked the knife away.

These bandits actually have skills, which makes Shen Ru frightened.

Seeing that the official errand was at a disadvantage, Shen Ru could only help, but her joining immediately reversed the situation.

"With such skills, you are willing to be a criminal, girl, what kind of daughter are you, how can you be so willing to degenerate?"

"Let your bullshit go crookedly, if you don't leave, then stay for your life!"

Shen Ru shouted, this group of people is vicious, they are here to kill!

With the help of Shen Ru, the official errand will not be completely crushed, and seeing that the official errand cannot be killed, this group of people retreated, and soon, they hid in the mountains and forests.

"Poor Kou Mo Chase!"

Chen Qing shouted to Shen Ru, "These are not ordinary bandits. ”
