Chapter Sixty-Six: The Wind Lan Caravan
Ever since he first arrived here and saw the big scene of the two groups of people fighting, Qingfeng felt that the people in this world world were not easy to mess with. After hearing Ouyang Feng and Qingfeng's words, Hongshang and the others walked to the front of the car and looked forward, Pei Di and the others were even more nervous, they knew very well that the robbers were ruthless, and as soon as they appeared, they were in groups, although Ouyang Feng and the others were strong, but Pei Di and the others did not think that the eight of them could fight against hundreds or thousands of outlaws at every turn.
The rice bucket jumped down from the board car, came to Ouyang Feng's side with a wooden stick thick as a thigh, and said cautiously: "A few masters, why don't we hide first." ”
Ouyang Feng shook his head and said, "It's too late, we can see them, and they should have already discovered us." It's okay, let's keep going, if it's bandits in front, everyone is trying to find a way to break through. After saying that, he wondered, "By the way, Peidi, didn't you say that there are no bandits and robbers nearby? ”
Pei Di shook his head innocently and said, "I don't know what to do." ”
Ouyang Feng frowned and said, "No matter, everyone be careful, if the situation is not right, we will run." The crowd nodded.
Ouyang Feng looked at Hongshang and said, "Senior sister, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I think you should cover your face first, if you are seen, maybe you will be lustful and troublesome to us." Hongshang glared at Ouyang Feng fiercely, but her heart was beautiful, and she put on a veil to cover her touching face.
After walking forward for more than ten minutes, the two sides were already close, and far away, a group of people on the opposite side came out of the crowd and rode quickly towards Ouyang Feng and them.
Ouyang Feng raised his hand and said, "Stop, let's wait and see what they have to do." ”
Qingfeng and Mingyue stood at the front, blocking the others behind, looking at the people with slightly nervous and solemn eyes. The horse's hooves stepped on the smoke and dust in the sky, and a group of more than twenty people slowly approached, through his divine sense, Ouyang Feng saw that these people's clothes were uniform, all of them were wearing black leather armor, and they were carrying long swords around their waists, but they were not unsheathed, similar to the guards of the Chamber of Commerce that they met when they first arrived in this world, Ouyang Fengxin suddenly put down more than half of them.
This group of people came to a place more than ten meters away from Ouyang Feng and a few people and stopped, and did not surround Ouyang Feng and the others with great force, but lined up horizontally, blocking the entire road, and divided into three horses and went straight to the road behind Ouyang Feng and the others. Lined up, a middle-aged man about forty years old rode out, first glanced at Ouyang Feng and the others, and then said without humility or arrogance: "We are the guards of the Fenglan Chamber of Commerce, I am the captain of the guard, Bill, may I ask who you are? Where are you going?"
Seeing that the person who came was not a bandit or a bandit, Qingfeng and Mingyue relaxed a lot, stepped left and right, and let Ouyang Feng negotiate with the other party.
Ouyang Feng stepped forward and said with a smile: "We are a street fighter team, I am a fourth-master with good roots, and I am ready to go to Hengshan City." ”
Bill frowned slightly when he heard this, and after carefully looking at Ouyang Feng's weapons, he couldn't help but sneer and said: "Street Fighter Clan? It should be the Street Fighter Mercenary Team, young man, don't always yearn for those bandits and robbers, let's cultivate hard, are you here to find trouble with those bandits? I think you better hurry back, those bandits are not something you can provoke." ”
Ouyang Feng and the others were stunned by what Bill said, but Ouyang Feng quickly analyzed a lot of things from the other party's words, first of all, the title of the clan should be the good name given to his team by the bandits, and secondly, this Bill mistook them for fledgling novices and formed a mercenary team to venture here.
Ouyang Feng turned his head and glared at Pei Di fiercely, and then scratched his head a little embarrassed and said to Bill: "You can see it, hehe, we were deceived by those old guys in the tavern, there are no bandits here at all, by the way, are you from Hengshan City? Did you encounter bandits or anything on the road?"
Bill didn't answer, but asked curiously, "Little brother, it doesn't seem like you're from the area around Boulder City to hear your accent, where are you from?"
Ouyang Feng didn't think about it and said, "Oh, we're not from Giant Rock City, we're from further south, but we stayed there for a while more than ten days ago. ”
Bill thought for a moment and said, "Farther south? Are you from Xinlu City?"
Ouyang Feng smiled and said, "It's almost, but a few of us are not from the city, we came out of the ravine more than a hundred miles away from Xinlu City, and we want to come out and see the world." ”
When Bill was about to ask something, the three men who had just left rode back, and one of them stopped beside Bill and whispered, "I've seen the first few miles, and there is no ambush." ”
Bill nodded slightly, and then said to Ouyang Feng with a smile: "Since this is the case, we won't delay your time, there are still two days to go from here to Hengshan City, a few little brothers should hurry as soon as possible." By the way, although we didn't encounter bandits when we came, we did encounter a lot of harmful beasts and monsters, so you still have to be careful. After speaking, he hugged his fists to Ouyang Feng and the others, turned his horse's head and led a group of guards to join the caravan behind.
As soon as Bill walked away, Ouyang Feng turned his head and said angrily, "Do you have any explanation for the team?"
Pei Di said with a face full of grievances: "I don't know about this, this is what I heard from others, and I have indeed heard the names of many teams, but it seems that Bill is right, those battles are also bandits." I really don't mean it. ”
Ouyang Feng smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, let's hurry, if you were careful, you wouldn't be alive now." Pei Di breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, if it wasn't for that Bill's self-righteousness just now, and he really didn't look like some bandits, otherwise with the irresolvable hatred between the caravan and the bandits, he would definitely attack without hesitation.
Ouyang Feng pushed the flatbed cart, Qingfeng and Mingyue were on the left and right, Hongshang and the others followed behind the cart, and after the group walked forward for more than ten minutes, they officially met the caravan of the Fenglan Chamber of Commerce.
At this time, the Fenglan caravan had slowly moved forward, and gave way to a carriage-wide road, Bill walked at the front of the caravan, smiled at Ouyang Feng and the others, and after Ouyang Feng and the others passed, he controlled the horses to turn around and stop, and watched Ouyang Feng and his party leave. Between the two sides of the trade route, no one spoke, and they were very vigilant and vigilant to each other, until the two sides passed by and traveled a distance, and they both breathed a long sigh of relief.
Ouyang Feng turned his head and asked Pei Di, "What do you think of this Fenglan caravan?"
Pei Di commented from a very professional point of view: "I think that a caravan of forty or fifty carriages like this can be regarded as a large caravan, and if you can rob them, the gain will definitely not be small." A few masters, have you seen it, there are a lot of guards around the carriages in the middle, and those carriages must be loaded with valuables. ”
Ouyang Feng rolled his eyes and said, "Who asked you this, and we don't plan to rob them, I'm asking them why they will take this road?
Pei Di shook his head and said, "I don't know the way, we haven't been in contact with the outside world for a long time. ”
Ouyang Feng sighed helplessly and said, "It seems that I have to inquire about the actual news when I get to Hengshan City." Rice bucket, come, let's go. After the rice bucket agreed, he stepped on the bicycle and pulled Ouyang Feng and the others to continue on their way.
In the Fenglan caravan, an old man walked side by side with Bill, and the old man asked curiously, "Did those people really come here to experience just now?"
Bill smiled faintly and shook his head, "Of course not, if I'm not mistaken, they should be the remnants of the bandits, at least a few of them are." ”
Bill has been engaged in escorting for many years and has rich experience, and the old man still believes in his judgment very much, and when he heard Bill say this, he was very puzzled and asked: "In this case, why didn't you directly arrest them or kill them directly?"
Bill shook his head and said, "There's no need for that, a few of them don't pose any threat to us, and we are in business, and we are not bounty hunters, and we can't exchange a few dollars for a few small thieves, maybe we will offend a certain power because of this." Besides, they have survived until now, they are definitely not ordinary people, they should have some ability, I don't want to cause casualties to my subordinates because of a few thieves. ”
The old man said with some concern: "If there are still a large number of bandits on this road, aren't you afraid that those guys will go back to ventilate and report the news to ambush us in advance? Why don't we turn around and go back to the new trade route, although we have to pay a little toll, but at least it is safe and secure. ”
Bill said dissatisfiedly, "A little toll? That's not a little." Over the years, the guards of Boulder City have really become more and more excessive, and we have calculated before, if we pay the toll, we will lose nearly half of our profits. Also, that trade route is not so safe now, haven't the caravans of the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, the Sunset Chamber of Commerce, and the Toulon Chamber of Commerce all been robbed on that trade route recently?" Then, Bill said confidently, " Also, I don't think there can be any big bandits on this road, this road has been abandoned for so many years, the bandits have no source of supplies, it is impossible to stay here, and whether it is Hengshan City or Juyan City, I have not heard of anyone buying food in large quantities and taking this trade route in these years, which means that there is no large-scale gathering of people here. ”
The old man nodded and said, "I'm relieved to hear you say that." ”
Bill smiled faintly and said to the guards beside him, "Order the convoy to move forward at full speed, and send more scouts to the front to check." ”
The guard shouted, "Yes, Captain, I'll do it." With that, he turned his horse's head and gave the order.
