Chapter 95: Falling Horse Slope

Now in the hands of Liu Sheng, the leader of his family, he is using a telescope with the most affordable price of less than 50 yuan.

The little beggar squatting in the yamen held a small telescope worth less than 1,000 yuan, and the little beggar regarded it as a treasure and no one borrowed it!

"Master Xiong, can you let me have a look!"

Andehai smiled and pleaded, pointing to the binoculars.

Zhao Xiong, who jumped off the horse, handed him the telescope without hesitation, and even taught him how to adjust it.

After half an hour, nothing happened on the post road, and the family fed the horses some food, and after the horses ate the food, Zuo Hui ordered the dart to be raised.

At this time, An Dehai reluctantly returned the telescope to Zhao Xiong, and he couldn't help but secretly praise it, both in terms of appearance and practicality.

This telescope is many, I don't know how many times better than the clairglass on his waist!

And Zhao Xiong is very good at being a man, so he took out a telescope from the horse, although it is not as good as this, but it is almost the same.

He simply stuffed the new telescope with a holster to Andhey.

When An Dehai happily took the telescope, he opened it and looked at it, and whispered: "I heard that recently, someone in the capital wants to check on you, you have to be careful!" ”

Zhao Xiong was stunned for a moment, smiled on the surface, and didn't make a sound, but in his heart he was turning over the river and the sea.

Ever since he knew the origin of the little beggar and the little aunt, and waded into this troubled water, he was always coming!

See the moves, take one step at a time!

Big deal, he moved overseas.

With the start of the carriage, because of the Xifeng Dart Bureau opening the way in front, Zhao Xiong's men and horses walked much faster than before.

Generally speaking, because of concerns about safety on the road, the dart team usually needs to reserve enough physical strength, so they do not walk fast or slow.

But now, the two little dart teams are half an hour apart.

At this interval, large bandits simply did not have time to deploy.

Small bandits, on the other hand, are not capable of posing a threat to a powerful team like Zephyr.

So there's no need to worry about security.

They made their way north, passing through mountainous and hilly terrain.

There are very few pedestrians on the road, and there are only a few dilapidated scenes on both sides of the post road, which are hidden among the hills.

But it's not that it's not uninhabited.

Since the current emperor succeeded to the throne more than ten years ago, the dynasty has become more and more mediocre, and now the local life is difficult, and bandits are rampant.

Villagers in the Yidao Mountains have taken their own protective measures, some of them take refuge in larger cottages, while others cultivate nearby fields to make ends meet.

These villages also have certain protective measures, such as the small village of Wang Xiaoqi that they went to the day before yesterday.

Outside the walls of the village there are several ponds of various sizes, which, during the dry season, have little water and are covered with silt.

Only a narrow sheep gut path leads to the interior of the village.

If bandits want to invade a village, it is difficult for them to pose a threat to the village unless they have an internal response.

Recently, bandits and water bandits have developed into frequent activities among the displaced people in the north.

These villagers must be extremely vigilant when carrying out their work, and they will immediately enter the village to seek protection if there is any disturbance.

At this time, Zhao Xiong's team had more than 200 people, and the momentum was very strong on the narrow post road.

Although the distance is long, those who have a heart can hear the neighing of horses and the sound of mules.

After walking for nearly an hour, the first dart team was finally about to cross the last terrace on the low hill.

The post road between the terraced fields is separated by two or three hundred steps, and the two hills, one high and one low, are very gentle.

But it is also a strategically important passage.

If you go downhill and see Weishan Lake, you will walk along the post road on the shore, and the relatively flat safety factor will also be improved accordingly. This is Luomapo, whether it is passers-by from other places or local darts walkers, they all hate and fear it.

At this moment, the second dart head in front of him realized that there was a situation ahead, pulled the reins and looked at the mountains on both sides, and immediately shouted a string of special trumpets.

"Uh-huh,...... Woo! ”

The voice was high and short, and he shouted several times in a row.

This is an emergency signal that there must be something special ahead.

Zuo Hui, the leader of the dart board who followed behind, suddenly reined in his horse, and at the same time raised his right hand upward, and the dart masters of the dart game had already heard the signal, and they quickly tightened their weapons to guard the side of the dart cart.

All the dart carts also quickly approached and were ready for battle.

Zuo Hui and a few executioners, patting his horse, galloped all the way back to Zhao Xiong's side.

An Dehai, who was in the carriage, lifted the half-worn curtain and poked his head out and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhao Xiong didn't have time to pay attention to him at all, but listened to Zuo Hui speak: "Master Xiong, there are a lot of people hidden in the grass of the fallen horse slope in front, and the second dart head should definitely be a group of bandits!" ”

Zhao Xiong's heart sank, there were so many of him, the other party dared to block the road and rob, he really didn't want to live, but he still came prepared.

He picked up the binoculars, adjusted the focus and looked at the two hills, and vaguely saw a dozen heads looking around in the grass.

And they all had knives, guns and sticks in their hands: "That's not right!

If these people are bandits and want to rob dart cars, they shouldn't expose themselves! ”。

Zhao Xiong did wonder why they had been exposed, but they were still hiding and not acting.

"Left darthead, you go up and ask, if you can avoid conflict."

After another quarter of an hour, Zuo Hui came to the front, he dismounted and took two steps, and said loudly to the hill in front of him.

"Zuo Hui, the head of the dart head of the Lower West Peak Dart Bureau, may I ask which way is the boss above?

What do you have to say?

Xifeng walks the rivers and lakes with integrity, but if he can help, Xifeng Dart Bureau will not have two words. ”

As soon as the words fell, a man in the grass on the hillside stood up and clenched his fists with both hands: "The second leader of the White Fish Gang is the White Tiger." ”

He pointed to the black-faced Rakshasa beside him and said, "This is the white bull of the three masters!" ”

Zuo Hui said loudly: "I have admired the name for a long time, and it is not respectful to invite all the brothers in charge of the family to drink a bowl of tea when we meet for the first time." ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the subordinates below took out a tray from the dart cart beside him, and there was a red cloth on the tray, and two ingots of silver were placed on the cloth and handed it to Zuo Hui.

Zuo Hui walked up the hill with the tray.

The silver of the Dakang Dynasty was divided into five taels, ten taels, and fifty taels, and there were also small silver ingots of four taels and two taels.

There are various shapes of silver, and most of the official treasury silver is ship-shaped, that is, the two pointed ends that people see from New Year's paintings.

The silver on the tray in Zuo Hui's hand is similar to a rectangle, and the two ears on the ingot surface are extremely low in shape like a turtle, so it is called a turtle treasure.

One turtle treasure weighs fifty taels, and two weigh one hundred taels.

Xifeng Dart Bureau offered a hundred taels of silver as tea money, although it was a temptation, but the shot was big enough.

The white tiger hugged his fists on it and said loudly: "I have heard for a long time that the Xifeng Dart Bureau is benevolent and righteous, and when I see it today, it really deserves its reputation."

The White Fish Gang, the Ming people don't do dark things.

We are here, we just want to borrow a way from the darthead, and when the previous transaction is over, we will naturally leave. Please rest here for a while......".
