The addition of more than a dozen veterans made the entire Chenjia Horse Village lively all of a sudden. The Chen family was originally worried that these old pawns had a murderous aura and were not easy to get along with. But later I found out that he was actually thinking too much about himself.

They are all hanging eggs, and the old pawns and the strong men quickly got into a mess. Even those family members who brought it, under Song Yu's arrangement, began to integrate into the circle of women in Mazhuang.

Chen Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and without hesitation, he told Zhu Feng and others about the preparation of the horse gang.

"The owner is going to Wuzhou?" Zhu Feng spoke in a deep voice.

"Exactly. You also know that there will be more and more people in the horse village in the future, no matter what, I need to think of some ways to earn some money to settle down. ”

"Dangerous?"

Chen Jing hesitated and nodded, "It's a bit dangerous, but after you come back, you will make a fortune." ”

This sentence is not a lie, when the Horse Racing Gang came back from Wuzhou, it was the time when Chen Jing made a lot of money. For example, glass balls or something, if someone asks at that time, they will say that these "treasures" were brought back from the Yue Ren Department, and there is also a certificate of crossing the Guanjin anyway.

"Zhu Feng, I want to bring a few old soldiers with me."

"No problem." Zhu Feng raised his head and smiled, personally helped Chen Jing, and picked a few strong old soldiers. Even the scout Tang Ao was also named.

"The things in this horse village, please rest assured, with my Zhu Feng here, I will definitely protect it well, and never let Xiaoxiao succeed."

Chen Jing smiled on his face. If it is an ordinary thief, with Zhu Feng and the young man left, there is no need to worry at all. Moreover, it is very close to Dengfeng City, and it is impossible for there to be a large group of bandits.

As for those village cubs in Wu Village, they haven't dared to come and shout for many days.

This time, according to the previous plan, nine people went together. In addition to the five old pawns, there are also Xing Xiaojiu, Li Heng and Sun Xiong.

It's a pity that even if he is promoted to county uncle, he still can't get a first. There was no way, Chen Jing only let the other eight people bring a beast skin robe, although they couldn't block the arrows, but they also had a little defense.

Fourteen horses, in addition to five cargo horses, each of them also shared some horse goods, hanging on the right and left of the jacket.

Early the next morning. In Ma Zhuangzi, there are now almost 100 people. The young and strong, women and children, the old and weak, all gathered in the open space in the Zhuangzi, raised their heads, looked at the heroes of the nine horse farms, and prepared to set off.

Chen Jing turned around, glanced at Song Yu in the center of the crowd, and smiled.

Song Yu also raised his head and looked at him seriously. The gaze in those eyes hides a sense of reluctance.

"Seven hundred miles—" Chen Jingce turned his head and spoke loudly.

"Three scoops of wine!"

"Don't get in the way of the beard."

"The knife is shaking, the road is long—"

"Gentlemen have the courage to kill their wives and mothers!"

……

Nine people and fourteen horsemen, following the official road outside the horse village, began to gallop to Wuzhou in the southeast, all the way. Of course, according to Chen Jing's instructions, don't run too fast, if you blow up the horse's lungs, I'm afraid that the gains outweigh the losses.

Passing through Wu Village, when Chen Jing looked sideways, he found that Wu Dong and several village cubs were standing at the entrance of the village with angry faces, looking up at them.

But after being glared at by Xing Xiaojiu, one or two, they were so shocked that they ran to the village.

"Owner, sooner or later, one day, I, Xing Xiaojiu in Xiazhou, will beat all these thieves and dogs to death without landing."

When he first entered the south, the people of Chenjia Mazhuang were not less bullied by these village cubs. But later, the Chen family was promoted to county uncle, and Wu Village suddenly stopped.

Chen Jing soothed, and then looked up into the distance. The journey to Wuzhou is about 400 miles, plus crossing the border, entering the Vietnamese people's department, and buying mountain goods such as animal skins...... A trip back and forth is not likely to take more than half a month.

"Tang Ao, after leaving Huaizhou, you take one person and go three miles as a scout. If you encounter a bandit, you don't need to break in, come back first. ”

In the army, the old soldier Tang Ao's job is to be a scout. Listening to Zhu Feng, Tang Ao had also completed many times of spying before.

"Don't worry." Even if he had just joined Zhuangzi, when he heard about Chen Jing's rebellion, these old soldiers all bowed to Chen Jing from the bottom of their hearts.

"Keep riding—"

About after dusk, nearly a day, Chen Jing and his party arrived at the border of Huaizhou. Seeing that it was getting dark, he didn't choose to go at night, but found an inn and stayed first.

Far away from Dengfeng City, the scene in the inn is clearly missing many rich squires and family members. Instead, there is a reckless martial arts and a pimp who makes a living as a fly dog.

"Tang Ao, divide two people to watch the horse, be wronged, and change people every two hours on duty." Chen Jing frowned.

He knew a little bit that Mr. Da had changed the law in the south before, especially in the Huaizhou area, and if there were thugs who dared to bully the people, they would be held accountable. Because of this, many squires did not dare to keep these thugs privately, leaving them to fend for themselves.

Some have become martial arts, some have become pimps, and even stalk their necks and go into the mountains and grass to become a coward.

In the inn, there was a table of martial artists eating wine and meat, and when they saw Chen Jing and these people, they all turned their heads and stared.

Xing Xiaojiu also puffed out his face and glared at nine of them.

"Sit down and eat." Chen Jing's expression was calm.

The Horse Racing Gang, which was originally a ninth-rate businessman, met all kinds of people, and it was not surprising.

Pong, pong.

Several old pawns, as well as Xing Xiaojiu, these villagers, all kept their faces calm, slapped the knife on the table, and untied the bamboo hat and put it aside.

"The owner, don't be frightened, if someone dares to use a knife, let's kill it directly." Xing Xiaojiu showed no weakness.

"Listen to Brother Jiu." Chen Jing smiled.

On the days of licking blood from the knife edge, you can't expect a safe journey, and you will have a few fights. Just like when he ran a horse in Luzhou, there was still something "the green forest in the world to kill it".

The group of martial artists at the table, after looking at each other for a while, turned their heads silently and stopped looking at each other.

A pimp came and said that the little lady of a certain family, the bed was free tonight, and three coins of silver entered the house. There are also those who sing songs, saying what kind of "little widow sister-in-law" they will sing, but they were also rejected by Chen Jingwan.

When you're away from home, it's better to have more than less.

Afraid that it was a black shop, the cautious Tang Ao also took out the silver needle, and after testing the poison, he let everyone take it.

"Don't dare to hide it from the owner, Mr. Big has just left the south, and there are more and more thieves and old bandits. And no one sent troops to suppress it, at most, there were more dead people, and an official list would be pasted and a few irrelevant words would be said. ”

Chen Jing understood. In the six southern states, Hu Zun and the old-fashioned people also fought to the death. Just like the rebels before, it was just a secret move by Sima Zhuo, who tried to impeach Mr. Big in the court of the capital to change the law.

The people above are playing chess, and the people below, many of them, are just chess pieces in the hands of the gamers.

In this world, even if you just want to live, it may not be an easy thing.
