No, he returned from a long trip, and before he could thank the Tai family, he encountered this incident.

The crackling sound of the bonfire burning, and a steward brought hot water, and it was rare to see the master so anxious, so he persuaded, "Shopkeeper, you can't be too anxious, everyone is counting on you to make up your mind about everything." We're going home soon, and we'll be able to talk about anything. ”

Chen Zhao took the hot water, blew on the heat and took a sip, and his heart was settled, "That's it, wait for the news to come back." ”

Besides, the leader of the guards brought four helpers and quietly followed the carriage of the Jianghu people, for fear of being discovered, they did not dare to make an abnormal noise at all.

Fortunately, the snow was thick in winter, which drowned out the sound of horses' hooves.

The southbound carriage rutted until five or six miles away, and then it was down the road and turned into a mountain nest.

The commander of the guard guessed that the Jianghu people were going to stay overnight, so he quickly took his brothers to hide the horses, and then quietly touched them.

The three Jianghu people originally wanted to find a broken temple or a single-door family, but unfortunately this area was really deserted, so they could only choose a mountain nest, with the help of a prominent mountain rock to block the cold wind on one side, and on the other side of the carriage, a bonfire was also built.

The answerer took out a bag of dried steamed buns, stuck them in a branch and roasted them, and asked, "Do you need to feed the two boys in the car?" Beware of starvation! ”

The old man waved his hand, "I won't starve to death for a day, and I'll talk about it tomorrow night." Beware of them being fed and having the strength to shout and get into trouble. ”

Dahan couldn't help muttering, "If you listen to me, you can take them back, let's hurry up, and we can make a deal in a few days." It's a drag to have to drive the carriage like this. ”

The old man glared angrily, "You idiot, how many times have I said it, the employer wants to live, live!" Originally, the girl who wanted the Tai family was not drunk and delayed for a day, missed the opportunity, and only caught two boys.

"In this case, the employer may not give money, and you still have to bring someone over! Don't you dislike silver biting your hands! ”

The big man reluctantly shut up, and the answerer gloated and gnawed on the steamed buns, and was kicked by the old man again, "Go to the car and see, the two boys should wake up, pour them a few mouthfuls of hot water, don't freeze to death." ”

The answerer was impatient, took the cup from the big man's hand, barely grabbed the snow, melted and steamed, and went to open the carriage door.

In the carriage, Yonglu and Yongyue have always been awake, and even when the carriage and the convoy are staggered, they are still entangled in whether to kick the carriage.

But when Pingshui meets, the people in the convoy will not ask much if they hear the movement in the carriage. Now I can only count on my family to find them all the way!

As the night wore on, the night's hopes of being rescued diminished.

When they were on the way, the three Jianghu people discussed to rob the convoy, and the brothers couldn't help but be happy, in case the convoy people were alert and caught the three Jianghu people, they would be saved.

But it is not easy for people to live in the world, in case the convoy is defenseless and is killed by the people of the rivers and lakes, not only can they not be rescued, but so many people are involved......

The two thought about it, they were really anxious, Yongyue couldn't help but be the first to cry, Yonglu finally came to him, arched his younger brother and wanted to comfort him, but he also cried.

The answerer opened the car door, and through the firelight, he saw two little faces crying, and he pursed his lips, and he didn't care about the two boys more and more.

The water in the cup was very hot, and he filled half a cup of the boys by himself, and frightened, "Stay honest with me, dare to make small moves, and I will break your hands and feet." The employer bought your life, but it didn't say that you can't get hurt! If you want to suffer less, let me be smarter! ”

With that, he regaged the two of them and withdrew.

When the old man heard a few words, he asked, "Are the two boys honest?" ”

The answerer nodded indifferently and replied, "Two peasant boys, you are still afraid that they will turn the sky, it would be good if you weren't scared to death!" ”

After that, he licked his face and came to him, begging the old man, "Let's discuss the plan to make a fortune, the convoy is a fat sheep, let's go south directly with one vote, no one can catch us, how about it?" ”

The old man was a little reluctant, so he made an excuse, "The car is full of goods, and I'm afraid that the money will be spent in the south." In case we don't get much silver, and we can't take so many goods with us, wouldn't it be in vain! ”

The answerer was anxious, and went to pry the big man again, "You can say a few words, let's finally come once, freeze half to death, we can't just catch two boys, right?" I didn't slaughter a fat sheep when I encountered it, it's too cowardly! ”

The big man couldn't bear it, so he followed the help, "It's better to do a vote, there are no powerful people here in the Northland." Let's leave when we're done, and we're not afraid of people looking for the back account! It's the New Year soon, bring some more money back, and we'll have a good New Year! ”

The old man still felt that more things were better than less, but he couldn't stand the three of them working together to make money, and the two agreed, so he could only nod.

"Then wait for midnight, when the convoy is asleep, sprinkle some medicine powder into the fire, pour more than half of the medicine, and then take down the shopkeeper or steward, and we will withdraw as soon as we ask for money." If you can't kill someone, you won't kill anyone, and even if you roll over and get caught, you can save your life. ”

Both the big man and the receiver felt that the old man was too cautious, but there was no harm in being cautious, and the two of them agreed.

They discussed it properly, and they were all at ease to eat and drink, but they spoiled Yonglu and Yongyue in the carriage. It's a pity that they can't protect themselves, and it's useless to worry about others!

Fortunately, the leader of the guards had already brought a brother to the vicinity, and with the help of the northwest wind, he was able to hear most of the conversation between the three of them clearly.

He was afraid of alarming the thieves, so he quietly retreated and instructed the remaining three guards to guard well, not to show their heads easily, and to keep an eye on the movements of the three Jianghu people.

The three guards looked at him with a bad look, and they didn't dare to ask more.

The leader of the escort rushed to the place where the horse was hidden, turned over and mounted his horse, did not dare to delay for a moment, and hurried to the camp of his convoy.

Chen Zhao didn't know how many times he looked around, and when he finally waited for the head of the guard, he rushed and asked, "How is it, are there people tied up in the carriage of those Jianghu people?" ”

The head of the guard let out a breath of cold air and nodded hurriedly, "The shopkeeper is right, there are two children tied up in the carriage, and the meaning of listening to the three Jianghu people is that someone hired them to be tied to the south, and I don't know who the specific employer is for the time being." ”

"Are the two children from the Tai family?" Chen Zhao was most concerned about this, and he was so anxious that he couldn't wait to see it in person.

The leader of the guards waved his hand and responded, "We can't see what looks like in the carriage, and we don't know if it's a Tai family child." But, shopkeeper, we're in trouble! ”

Hearing the word trouble, the rest of the people also came over.

The leader of the guards did not hide it, and carefully explained what had just happened, and everyone was immediately annoyed and scolded one after another.
