Chapter 139: I can't believe it
The convoy stopped on the side of the road, and several Beijung warriors dressed as merchants also took the opportunity to stop and rest, and couldn't help but complain to each other: "Are we treating this guy too favorably?" Just let him hold it? ”
"After all, he is the prince of a country, and the king said that if he wants to bring it back alive, it is not good to bully him too much, and at least he has to keep some dignity."
"Obviously we are already a captive, treat it as a pig and dog, and promise not to die?"
"Hmph, if you want me to say, give his head directly to Da Tu Tianzi, see if Da Tu dares to go against our Beirong!"
Seeing that several subordinates were talking more and more, the man at the head suddenly said angrily: "Shut up!" What do you know!? Listen to the king's command! ”
The others stopped talking, but their expressions were still a little unconvinced.
They watched their companions take Zhu Rongzhan into the woods on the side of the road, and slowly spread to the front and back of the car, seemingly to check the goods in the carriage, but in fact they were on guard.
At this moment, they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from afar, and the rest of the people immediately glanced at each other, exchanged a wary look, and approached the place where the weapons were hidden.
I saw a man and a woman galloping on horseback, and when he saw the caravan on the side of the road, the man said "huh" and stopped his horse under his crotch when he passed the caravan. Seeing this, the woman also stopped and asked softly, "Childe, what's wrong?" ”
The young man approached and asked curiously, "Where are you going?" ”
A merchant hurriedly stepped forward, seemingly greeting him, but in fact preventing him from continuing to approach.
"We are a caravan returning from the north. I don't know what can help Childe? ”
"Returning to the north? Are you all sold out? ”
"yes."
"And where did you buy the goods?" After speaking, without waiting for the merchant to answer, he looked in the direction where the caravan was coming: "You are from Hedong City?" There was a disaster on the east side of the river, are there any other goods for sale? ”
"The surrounding area of Hedong was seriously affected, but the city of Hedong was quite stable, except for the lack of food, other materials were fine. It's just that food has a price per hour, and we really can't stand it, so we left the road early. ”
The young man laughed: "I was going to Hedong to buy some things, if you have them in your carriage, why don't I buy them from you, and save some time." ”
The businessman hurriedly squeezed out a smile and said, "Childe, it is not easy for us to come all the way to do business from afar. The goods we buy can't be sold for a few dollars in Datu, but if they are transported to the outside of the plug, they will be sold at a price of 100 times and 1,000 times. ”
"Aren't you leaving Datu at the next stop," the boy said with a dissatisfied face: "You sell me some things here, and go to the next city to make up for it?" It's a big deal that I'll pay double the price, it's always okay, right? ”
"This ......"
Seeing that this boy refused to leave easily, another businessman stepped forward and pulled his companion, and whispered quickly in Beirong dialect: "Don't entangle!" Hurry up and send him away! ”
Immediately reprimanded in big words: "You guy! So ignorant! How can there be a reason to push the business outward! ”
He smiled at the son, "I don't know what the boy wants to buy?" ”
"That's right!" The boy was satisfied: "What do you have in the car?" ”
"That's naturally the hottest commodity outside the Seychelles - silk, tea, ......"
The merchant said as he lifted the curtain of the car, revealing the contents of the car.
The young man said to the maid behind him, "Come and see, do you like anything?" Childe will buy it for you. ”
The maid smiled: "Thank you, son." ”
They were about to dismount and pick up the goods, when suddenly there was a rustle of leaves in the woods, and the boy looked up in surprise and said, "What's the movement!?" It can't be a tiger and a bear, right!? ”
But it was Zhu Rongzhan who finally saw the person coming, and was eager to attract the attention of the other party, and wanted to rush out to call for help, but was covered by the businessman who was guarding him.
Although the Beirong merchant was a well-trained warrior, Zhu Rongzhan was also a man in the end, and his strength was not small. The two struggled, Zhu Rongzhan was suppressed to the ground, although he couldn't struggle, he was able to grab the gap, and shouted loudly: "They are Beirong fine work!" Run——!! ”
The boy was stunned for a moment, but he didn't react for a while, and looked at the businessman next to him a little blankly: "What is that voice?" ”
The maid was alert and felt that something was wrong: "Childe! Let's go! ”
But the merchants reacted quicker, grabbed them by the legs, and pulled them off their horses.
They pulled out the dagger in their arms, sneered and prepared to destroy the corpse and kill people: "We didn't plan to move you, if you want to blame, blame your prince!" ”
The young boy trembled, and his face turned blue and white with fright: "Too, prince? What prince? ”
At this time, Zhu Rongzhan was taken off his chin and arms and walked out of the woods.
He was already slightly lame in both feet, and he naturally stumbled a little when he walked, and at the moment he was wearing messy women's clothes, his long hair was scattered, and he couldn't see his face clearly for a while, but he could only glimpse some fair and delicate skin and beautiful outlines, and he stumbled and stumbled, but he really looked like a beautiful woman who I had seen pity and was bullied.
The young boy was originally very frightened, but at this moment, he had some pity for the heroism of cherishing the jade, and suddenly said angrily: "You dare to rob the people's daughter!? ”
He wore a sword at his waist, but he was heavily decorated, and was obviously more inclined to ceremonial weapons than actual combat.
This boy pulled out his sword with a "bang" and was about to fight with it.
The merchants burst into laughter.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, look at it, as long as you dare to open your mouth to call for help, we will dismantle these people in front of you - if you don't care about their lives or deaths, just continue to think about escaping!"
Zhu Rongzhan looked at him coldly.
After a few rounds, the young man's sword was flipped off. Several Beijung men stepped forward and grabbed the maid by the hair, laughed and dragged her to the ground.
"Let's start with this woman! Drag her over! Let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince take a good look! ”
"Don't ——! No! Childe ——! Childe save me-ah!! ”
The girl screamed.
She struggled desperately, but a powerless girl had no strength to compete with a few Beirong warriors.
Zhu Rongzhan looked at those Beirong warriors with disgust and contempt, and said with anger: "You will only use these indiscriminate methods. ”
At that moment, a crossbow bolt burst through the air!
An arrow shot directly into the temple of the Beirong merchant who was holding Zhu Rongzhan hostage. He originally had a cruel smile on his face, but before he could reflect how the situation had changed, he was forever frozen at this moment and fell down with a bang.
At the same time, another scream rang out at the same time.
Zhu Rongzhan fell to the ground by his weight, and he turned his head sharply to look in the direction where the crossbow arrow was fired, but he saw that not far away, at some point, two more horsemen arrived.
A man and a woman are shoulder-to-shoulder, the man is holding a crossbow arrow and is changing arrows, and the other is holding a curved bow, which has been replaced and is waiting to be shot in the next wave.
The man Zhu Rongzhan had never seen before, but the woman he was most familiar with.
Zhu Rongzhan looked in the direction of the scream just now, but it was the other Beirong warrior who was dragging the maid's hair.
The arrow hit him in the eye, and he fell to the ground with almost madness of pain.
"Ah Yu ......"
Zhu Rongzhan sat on the ground, almost unable to believe his eyes.
