Chapter 8 The wounded man returned safely

I didn't expect such turmoil to happen here, so it's no wonder that food prices have been high for the past few months.

Luo Feng's mouth opened wide when he heard this, and he couldn't help asking, "How do you know these things?" I remember the gates hadn't been opened for the first few months. ”

Zhou Hua sneered, "Can you block everything by closing the city gates?" You are so naΓ―ve. ”

Then he stopped talking and walked briskly to the front of the team.

Zhao Ya looked at his back, thoughtful.

Luo Feng couldn't help but mutter: "What, it seems like how mature you are." ”

The speed of the march was very fast, and by noon it had traveled thirty miles, and at this speed it was not a big problem to reach their destination in the evening.

Luo Qiang also breathed a sigh of relief and ordered to rest and have lunch on the spot.

In fact, in the past, there were fixed rest points on dart roads like this, which were basically roadside shops, although they were simple, but at least you could have a hot meal.

But now, after a displacement shock, these roadside shops are all gone.

So Luo Qiang and the others had to eat some dry food they brought.

Zhao Ya took out a piece of air-dried beef, tore off a lock and put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.

Now he always has some air-dried meat on his body, and when he has nothing to do, he eats two pieces, which can not only enhance his physical strength but also kill time.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves on the official road, and Luo Qiang immediately got up and stood on the dart car and looked into the distance.

The crowd then dispersed and protected the cart.

At this time, Zhao Ya saw a puff of smoke and dust rolling from a distance, and rushed to the front in an instant.

It was a lone horse, and immediately sat a strong man.

It's just that at this moment, the condition of this strong man is a little miserable, his chest and abdomen are covered with scars, and blood is still oozing out.

Even so, the strong man's eyes were still terrifyingly bright.

And even if they were so far away, Zhao Ya could still feel the extremely fierce blood on the strong man's body.

Zhao Ya could feel it, let alone Luo Qiang.

I saw that the dart master's face changed, and he was about to speak, when the strong man pulled the reins and stopped in front of the dart team.

"Do you have any drinks to eat?"

For a while, no one dared to respond.

The strong man frowned.

"There is no wine, and dry food is good, and I will not eat your food in vain."

As he spoke, he reached out and took out a piece of broken silver from his bosom and threw it over.

Luo Qiang had already reacted at this time, only to see him reach out and catch the piece of silver, pick up a bag of dry food and put the silver in it, and then threw it towards the strong man.

"There is no need for silver, please use it."

The strong man took it casually, and he was not polite, but nodded.

"Farewell."

Then he beat his horse and left.

This man came and went in a hurry, and disappeared on the official road in the blink of an eye.

Luo Feng looked at it with some curiosity, and couldn't help but sigh in his mouth.

"Tsk, how can this guy be so badly injured and still act like no one?"

At this moment, I only heard Luo Qiang say in a deep voice: "Get up quickly and leave here." ”

When he was out of the house, his words were orders, and everyone immediately got up and headed for their destination.

For the rest of the journey, Luo Qiang didn't say a word, and his face was very solemn.

His performance also made everyone's hearts a little apprehensive, even the most active Luo Feng didn't dare to talk nonsense.

Fortunately, the rest of the journey was safe, and before the sun set, they came to the destination of this trip, the samurai camp.

This samurai camp is said to be a village, but in fact it is completely an ancient castle.

The village was surrounded by rammed earth walls on all sides, and Zhao Ya even saw several lookouts and arrow towers.

If this gate is closed, even if there are hundreds of ordinary people, they will not be able to break through in a short time.

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, Luo Qiang stepped forward to negotiate.

Because they were all acquaintances, the gate was soon opened, and Zhao Ya and others escorted the dart cart into the village.

By the time Luo Qiang and the person receiving the goods were handed over, it was completely dark.

Fortunately, the inside of the samurai camp is very spacious, and there is also an inn.

Luo Qiang took Zhao Ya and others to stay in the martial arts camp for one night, and only set foot on the return journey early the next morning.

When I came, because of the drag of the goods, the speed could not come up, and it was different when I went back.

Everyone traveled lightly, so they walked more than half the way before noon.

Seeing that it was only twenty or thirty miles away from the Dancing Elephant City, a team of people suddenly appeared on the opposite side.

The men were all riding tall horses, led by a man in a blue cloak with a long knife at his waist, blocking the way.

The atmosphere instantly became tense.

Looking at Luo Qiang at this time, he calmed down, his face was full of smiles, and he clenched his fists and said.

"This friend, we are from the Changlong Dart Bureau in the Dancing Elephant City, this time we are returning from the dart, and we are about to return to the Dancing Elephant City, but I don't know why you are blocking the way, friend?"

These words were neither humble nor arrogant, and he clearly told the other party that he was an empty car returning from a dart, and there was no oil and water.

Unexpectedly, the man in the lead didn't care about these at all, and just asked in a cold voice.

"Let me ask you, have you ever seen a strong man on horseback on this official road, still wounded?"

Zhao Ya chuckled in his heart.

Are these people looking for the strong man from yesterday?

Luo Qiang's face did not change at all, and he shook his head and said, "We just passed by this road, and we didn't see any injured strong men. ”

"Really?"

"Nope."

"Humph! I guess that guy won't be able to run far, let's go. The man greeted, ignored Luo Qiang and the others, and led his men to continue the chase.

When they were all far away, Luo Qiang breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately commanded.

"Let's go, go back to the city immediately."

In fact, there was no need for him to order, everyone was already ready.

The rest of the journey was safe, and soon returned to the Dancing Elephant City, and after returning to the dart game, Luo Qiang immediately went to find the chief dart head, obviously to report what happened on the way.

Zhao Ya and the others relaxed.

All in all, although there was a bit of an unexpected situation in this first dart, it was a smooth one.

Luo Feng was so excited that he bragged to those miscellaneous servants.

"You didn't see it, but this time we went out and met a ......."

He wanted to continue, but Zhao Ya suddenly stopped him.

"Luo Feng, you come with me."

Luo Feng didn't know why, and followed Zhao Ya to the side.

"Brother Zhao, what's wrong?"

Zhao Ya said in a deep voice: "You'd better not go around talking about things on the road this time. ”

"Why?" Luo Feng still didn't understand.

"There's no why, anyway, you don't have to go around saying it, and I'm sure your second uncle will tell you the same later."

After that, Zhao Ya patted Luo Feng's shoulder and left.

Luo Feng didn't know why, but soon his second uncle Luo Qiang gave him a gag order, and it was strictly forbidden to tell anyone about what he encountered when he went out this time.
