Chapter 4: Shock
After walking for a while, from time to time the horses flew hoofed and the carriages passed by, raising a lot of dust.
"How long will it take, it's almost an hour!"
Gu Zongzhi stood in front of Zhao Heng, his left hand crossed his waist, his right hand wiped his sweat, panting, rubbing his sour body, relieving his exhaustion, his face and cheeks were bloodshot, as if he had drunk old wine, and he sweated between his words.
He is also pampered in Gujiabao, not to mention the green draped sedan chair, he will also be rationed with high-quality horses, where can he stand this.
On the other hand, Zhao Heng, who has been weak since he was a child, although he is a prince, his heart is not beating or panting, he is walking calmly on the official road, looking at it from time to time along the way, and always paying attention to the movements.
"Okay, when we meet a carriage in the back, let's grab two horses, it's a big deal that you spend more silver taels, if you feel distressed, don't give it, anyway, let's come to this ghost place once!" Gu Zongzhi pursed the corners of his lips and looked at Zhao Heng angrily.
He had long been a little unaccustomed to Zhao Heng's posture.
However, due to his strength, and he still needs a helper in this place, he has already done it, so why should he suffer such a crime.
Gu Zongzhi whispered again, the cold light in front of him suddenly brightened, the scabbard in Zhao Heng's hand pointed directly at his eyebrows, the cold chill swept into his heart, his pupils shrank, like the tip of a needle, at this moment, how could there be so much nonsense, he trembled his mouth, waved his hand again and again, his face suddenly piled up with a flattering smile, and said dryly: "Brother Zhao, no... Childe, Uncle Zhao, they all listen to you, they all listen to you. ”
"Listen to me and keep going!"
Zhao Heng stared at him silently and said sharply.
He can bring the oil bottle with him, all for good deeds, but he can meet people in front of him, Gu Zongzhi doesn't know how to advance or retreat, if he leaks something that shouldn't be leaked, the burden will be completely harmful to himself.
Along the way, he had already warned......
Soon after, the two of them were on the side of the road, in front of a small bamboo forest at the corner of the pipe, there was a tea shop, which was supporting a pergola and selling some food.
It was not noon, and there were not many guests resting.
Gu Changqing looked out from Gu Zongzhi's perspective and saw that the owner of the tea shop was a rickety old man.
At this moment, there are three tables of people sitting inside, one table is a dusty couple, one table is a firewood picker in the mountains, with a small axe pinned to his waist, two bundles of dry firewood next to the square table, and a table is a rich young master who is holding a pretty maid in his arms and is presumptuous in his hands, and there are his guards on the side.
"Good place, let's go!"
Gu Zongzhi could manage so much, his smile grew, his mouth was already dry, and he couldn't wait to rush over.
The next moment, Zhao Heng's words made his expression stagnant, like mourning.
"You wait here, I'll buy it, by the way, go over and inquire about some news, you help me look around, I have asked for a long time to practice more, don't move around here." Zhao Heng looked at Gu Zongzhi's anxious face, and undoubtedly vetoed him, like a basin of cold water poured on Gu Zongzhi's heart, he decided to go by himself.
"There's a seat over there, you ......"
Gu Zongzhi stretched out his index finger, pointed to the empty tables and chairs in the tea shop, and whispered with a bitter face.
Sa!
The scabbard swept by the sound of the wind.
"Hehe, you go... You go! Gu Zong's heart trembled, the corners of his mouth grinned, and he said with a dry smile.
Gu Changqing heard the string song and knew the elegant meaning.
Although he has never walked in the rivers and lakes, he has never eaten pork, and he has never seen a pig run.
It's just that a reckless fool like Gu Zongzhi won't pay attention, the tea shop in front of him is obviously someone waiting for the rabbit, and the task is very clear, he will encounter interception, and his pig is frizzy and can't tell the difference.
The seller is too refreshing, not like a person who goes to the countryside all the year round, and sells firewood for a living, how can he not bring his own tea, but eat tea with spare money.
Zhao Heng was not far from the tea shop, and he did not explain.
If there is a person on the other side who is deaf and clear-sighted, or whose strength is like Zhao Heng, and the ears are opened in the nine orifices, the conversation between them will inevitably be heard, so it is inconvenient for him to talk to Gu Zongzhi in detail about some words, lest he have many mouths and tongues and alarm the other side.
Zhao Heng has entered the world of reincarnation many times, and his experience in the rivers and lakes has long been extraordinary, coupled with the eyesight he has exercised since childhood, he is even more comfortable here, but he is always vigilant.
After all, if you die here, you are really dead.
There were once teammates who died in front of him, and it was really vivid, bloody and unspeakable.
Zhao Heng stared into the distance, he naturally noticed that the chopping wood lang was abnormal, and there was no sense of hard work and hardship in the mountains, especially his eyes were open, and he saw it more carefully than Gu Changqing, Gu Changqing just analyzed it from common sense, but he could clearly see that Chai Lang's hand holding the teacup, there was no sign of cracking in the perennial sun.
After appeasing Gu Zong, he walked over slowly.
When approaching the tea shop, Zhao Heng suddenly heard a neighing of a horse.
Subconsciously turned his head and saw four brown horses, all fat and strong, and a gorgeous carriage parked next to it, obviously the noble son who was holding the pretty maid in his arms, with his maid's delicate appearance, without the carriage, he would definitely not be able to go here.
"Wait until you ask for the way, you really have to ride a horse, and you will arrive at Jiuhui Mountain in Xinzhou in three days, with such a drag oil bottle, you should be faster than us by relying on light work." Zhao Heng's heart moved, and he suddenly thought.
He knew very well that the two of them were currently light skills, and he didn't care, but with Gu Zongzhi's foot strength, the short distance could be compared with the horse, and as soon as the distance was long, he had to be pulled down.
Moreover, riding a horse is much less labor-saving than rushing by yourself, and when you encounter danger, you can also have enough spare strength to counterattack.
"Well, buy it from the owner of the horse later."
Zhao Heng touched the silver and jade in his arms.
He has his own perseverance, and unless things are urgent, he has no idea of becoming a robber for the time being.
Zhao Heng is not stunned, so every time before entering the reincarnation world, he will prepare some silver taels in advance, or even some jade, after all, some worlds have different means of circulation, such as some demon worlds, but they like jade and other utensils.
So, Zhao Heng subconsciously walked into the tea shop from near the rich young master, swept his eyes, and looked them up and down.
"Vultures, look at what!"
The rich young master in fine clothes and fine food, one of the two guards, walked up with his arms crossed.
Zhao Heng saw that his steps were heavy and his attitude was fierce, but he was just rough with his fists and feet, relying on his strong body to fill the façade, but he didn't plan to provoke him for a while.
Zhao Heng was not in a hurry, he chuckled lightly in his heart, and was ready to talk to this rich young master later.
Bypassed a few tables and walked towards the owner of the tea shop.
"Shopkeeper, let's have a bowl of herbal tea!"
Separated from the chai seller and the other two tables of guests, Zhao Heng sat down next to the owner of the tea shop, pressed the long sword in his hand, and said in a loud voice.
The old man with bowed back and gray hair said with a smile: "Wait a minute, guest officer!" ”
When the rickety old man approached with the tea, Zhao Heng lowered his voice, and there was a piece of broken silver on the corner of the table, so as not to be heard by the merchant: "Uncle, I want to go to Xinzhou, I don't know which way to go?" ”
Zhao Heng was cautious and did not mention the exact location.
At the same time, half of Zhao Heng's attention was on selling Chai Lang.
The old man smiled and said, "Follow this official road all the way, and the two-day journey will be there... But ......"
Before he finished speaking, his expression changed, and he looked behind Zhao Heng in dismay.
The merchant had already pulled out a bright long sword from a bundle of dry firewood, kicked it under his feet, lifted it up through the bench, and rushed straight behind Zhao Heng.
