In the early morning, the rain faded.

The horses' hooves stepped through the muddy forest road and slowly emerged from the dense forest. By Chen Jing's side, in addition to Xing Xiaojiu, there was also Tai Shiqing, who was sent all the way.

"Brother Chen, keep in mind that you only have five or six days to prepare. At that time, Mr. Big will come. ”

"Brother Taishi, don't worry." Chen nodded his head.

Last night, he and Yuan Siqiao had a long talk. After deciding to enter the city, he was able to rescue the head catcher Xia Chong, and he did not hesitate.

As for these five or six days, he still needs to do one more thing.

"Brother Chen, I will enter the city with you when the time comes, please be very careful during this time, and don't leak the news."

After admonishing him, Tai Shiqing clenched his fists and rode his horse back to the forest again.

Chen Jing turned his gaze back and looked at the official road not far away. The situation escalated, and Xu Lingjun was beheaded on a stone platform outside the city, without leading Yuan Siqiao. Right now, it's bound to get even crazier.

"Boss, let's do these headless things, Zhuangzi's side ......"

"Xiao Jiu, I've thought about it a long time ago. This time, only you and I will go to Ping'an Town, and the rest of the people will escort the master mother and them to the south to avoid trouble. ”

Hearing this, Xing Xiaojiu rejoiced again. In his life, only his son Xing Qiu is his biggest concern.

"When you go back to Zhuangzi and escort Mr. Big, you don't have to talk about it, so as not to worry them."

"Boss, will we die?"

"Don't overthink it. I can't say that I rescued Xia Zhutou, and everyone went to the south together. ”

When the time comes, even if it costs a lot of silver. He will find a way to help Xia Chong arrange a new identity. In this world, as long as you have enough money, you can make the devil grind.

Of course, the premise of everything is that this escort of Mr. Big can be a perfect success.

After saying goodbye to Tai Shiqing, the two continued to move forward, and not long after, they had already entered the middle of the official road.

Due to the recent situation and the deterrence of the decapitation platform, most of them are people from nearby villages, who are dragging their families to the south.

The rain was still wet, and four or five families gathered in front of him, and the man walked on the very side, with a club and sickle in his hand, while comforting his wife and children, he looked around cautiously and fearfully.

The sky is blue and the sky is white, but there are still path-cutting thieves, a gang of seven or eight people, rushing out of the roadside like crazy, trying to snatch the burden of women and children.

"Master!" The cries of a village woman rang out.

Several men ran up, angrily brandished their sticks and sickles, and struck at the path cutters.

Xing Xiaojiu got off his horse and jumped away, and the treasure knife slashed over the two path cutting thieves, only two moves, and the rest were so shocked that they ran away in all directions.

The people thanked Xing Xiaojiu, bowed to Chen Jing again, and then hurriedly set off again.

"I just asked, in the villages not far from both sides of the official road, many people have avoided the disaster." Xing Xiaojiu got back on the horse, his voice chattering.

Chen Jing was silent, and remembered the first time he went out of the city. Under the spring breeze, his little daughter-in-law was in the tenant field by the official road, carrying a wooden plow on her back, helping the villagers to cultivate together.

"The owner is slow, the battalion is coming!"

Chen Jing frowned and raised his head, and from a distance, he saw the battalion of seven or eight horsemen, stepping through the mud and galloping.

A villager stepped forward and told him about the path cutter.

Several cavalry battalion soldiers nodded expressionlessly, and dispersed the people who surrounded them with horsewhips at once. When he looked up, he saw Chen Jing riding a horse again, and hurriedly surrounded him again.

"But the Far Away? Is there a toothless card? Don't look at it, this long road recently, according to the official document of the official workshop, to collect the road silver. ”

Chen Jing handed out the tooth card.

The battalion soldiers of the seven or eight cavalry looked at the tooth tag handed out by Chen Jing and gradually became silent.

"The little proprietor of Tangcun Racecourse?"

"It's the villain."

"I've heard you, and the means are somewhat good. But let me mention that during this time, don't move around. This time, Lu Yin, I was favoritism. ”

"Don't worry, my lord, everyone near the town knows that I, Chen Jing, am a good citizen."

"It couldn't be better. Tsk, please go. ”

Moving on, Chen Jing frowned. Because of the bandits, his recent name is a little loud near Ping'an Town. When the time comes, you will need to change your identity and hide your eyes.

Turning to the intersection of Tangcun Road, Chen Jing stopped his horse, his eyes were a little silent, and he looked at the two neem trees in the intersection. According to Yuan Siqiao, under these two trees, there is a wooden box buried. The wooden box contained silver tickets, as well as more than a hundred letters from home.

"What's the owner thinking?"

"Nothing." Chen Jing scattered his thoughts. Since you have chosen another path, you can only move forward and fight your way out of the encirclement.

"Xiao Jiu, urge the horse to rush back to Tang Village!"

The two horsemen, in the residual rain of the early morning, reined in the horses and hurried to Tang Village.

……

"Chen Jing, you told us to go south?" Song Yu's face was anxious, "What about you?" ”

Chen Jingdui smiled, "You also know that it has been very unpeaceful recently. You, the housewife, will take the Zhuang people to go first, and Xiao Jiu and I will follow in a few days. ”

"Why how many days?"

"Go pick up Xia Zhutou, pick it up and leave."

Song Yu's face hesitated, "Otherwise, wait for you to come back together." ”

"No, I just heard that I'm about to fight, I don't believe you ask Xiao Jiu."

"I don't ask him, he likes to help you the most." Song Yu sat down, his eyes a little silent. Many times, she can't guess why the portrait of Xiao Xianggong has changed to a different person. Although it has become more powerful, it has also become more prone to danger.

Last time she came back from Luzhou, she also asked Zhou Yong about those people, and heard that several times, the horse team was almost killed by Luzhou bandits.

"Chen Jing, I'm worried about you."

Chen Jing still smiled, "Don't worry, I said it all, if you find Xia Zhutou, you will catch up." When the time comes, we will go to the south together, buy a big house, and when the business improves, I Chen Jing will be a rich and noble man with peace of mind, nest in the house, and we will also give birth to a litter of babies, male and female babies, and pinch our feet every day. ”

Just once, Song Yu laughed and cried.

"It's not easy for our old Chen family to become a big family. Song Yu, you just wait, I, Chen Jingmao, have enough strength, and in a few years, I will let you be a rich housewife. ”

Only by establishing a clan, being able to raise soldiers, and being able to raise private soldiers, can the Chen family be regarded as slowly rising in this kind of world.

Escorting Mr. Big, in Chen Jing's opinion, is not only for Xia Chong, but when the time comes, if Mr. Big succeeds in entering Beijing to change the law, he will have a foundation.

Even if he avoids this vortex now, sooner or later, as the business spreads, he will eventually get closer and closer to this vortex.

"Song Yu, this is the notarization of the firm. With it, the people of Guanjin will not be embarrassed by you. Chen Jing took out the paperwork in his arms and carefully handed it to Song Yu.

"In addition, there are two thousand taels of silver tickets here, and if you go to the south, if you wait too long, you will buy a house first and do some business."

Song Yu hesitated to take it. If I am not mistaken, from leaving Ping'an Town to now, in less than two months, the little minister in front of him has earned so much at once.

"Chen Jing, you have to hurry up."

"Don't worry." Chen Jing comforted. With Song Yu's ability to run the family, these two thousand taels, even a big Zhuangzi person, can last for a long time.

"When I go out, I will tell Hu Dong and these people that I am going to Moxi to buy horses and return after a while. There are their family members in the Zhuangzi, and these people have also followed me to lick the blood, and they are upright, and they will listen to you. ”

Of course, in order to prevent changes, he still has to rush over as soon as possible.

"Chen Jing, what are you doing, like you're explaining what happened?"

"Wrong, I'm worried about my daughter-in-law." Chen Jing said with a smile, "Don't forget, when I was ignorant before, everything in our old Chen family was in charge of you." Song Yu, I believe in you. ”

Chen Jing opened his hand and held Song Yu in his arms.

He crossed over, a life like shit, the first person he saw when he opened his eyes, and the person who protected him was Song Yu in front of him.
