Chapter 56: Camp
I don't know if it's okay to spend money to guide the way, but as soon as everyone heard that they had spent a hundred taels of gold on the guide fee, they immediately felt that this fat man surnamed Jin was not a good person.
But now that the convoy has stopped, even if they ask for it, it is useless, so everyone reined in their anger and rested. Qing Ling, Qing Ying, Tang Yan and Yun Dai got into the carriage, while Ling Bing Xian, Yuan Feng Chi, and Jian Tian bought a tent with Jin Xiaoxiao and stayed overnight.
The caravan set out on time early the next morning, because it was pulling a cart of goods, so it walked very slowly, and it was for this reason that it had to walk on the road for more than three months, and if seven people knew the road and rode horses, I am afraid that they would be able to reach the country near the Holy Land in a month.
............
After a few days of continuous travel, Qing Ling also discovered the rules of the caravan, when he was in the suburbs, he walked during the day and stopped at night, and when he encountered a town, he stopped during the day and walked at night. Therefore, the seven people did not get a good night's sleep along the way. Qing Ling is not surprised by Jin Xiaoxiao's performance of slamming the door, the so-called profiteer, no traitor, no businessman.
Further on, there is a continuous mountainous area, and there are also trade routes near the mountains, so it can only be passed. Before this, Qing Ling and Jin Xiao had several contacts, and also inquired about the places they had to pass along the way, countless small towns, continuous mountainous areas, and then passed through several big cities, and finally passed through a desert, and they were about to reach their destination.
It can be said that this journey has been unstable. Because there are bandits in the mountains, and robbers in the desert. But fortunately, there were warriors from the martial arts hall invited before Jin Xiaoxiao, and more than 30 strong men were armed with swords, and they looked mighty at a glance, and those bandits and robbers did not dare to rob them.
When he said this, Jin Xiaoxiao sighed and felt distressed, because the escort price of each samurai was around one tael of gold, more than thirty people, that is, thirty taels of gold. But Qing Ling glanced at him and thought to himself, when you blackmailed us, there was no one for a hundred taels of gold!
The carriage was swaying, and it had already walked on the trade route in the mountains, because there were bandits on this side, so the caravan was much faster than usual, and it was much quieter, for fear that if it was slow and loud, it would attract the attention of the bandits.
Jin Xiaoxiao said before that it would take two days to get out of this mountainous trade route, even if it was to speed up, so it was necessary to stay overnight in the mountains at night. Qingling has no opinion on this, where to stay in a carriage, and she cares where the caravan stops. However, after hearing that there were bandits in the vicinity, Qing Ling smiled long, not seeing a business opportunity, but seeing an opportunity to be angry.
............
In the evening, the red sun had set on the mountain, and the caravan had found a suitable place to camp and was ready to stay. Qingling and the others got out of the carriage and also found a place near the center of the caravan camp and stopped.
Today in the carriage said okay, at night Qingling several girls slept in the tent, Lingbing attacked the three of them sleeping in the carriage, the cause of this incident was purely because of Yuan Fengchi's complaint, he said that there were a lot of mosquitoes in the tent......
Yuan Fengchi and Jian Tian helped a few girls set up tents, and a few people went to hang out nearby. Sitting in the carriage all day, my whole body is about to fall apart.
Qing Ling and her sister were hanging out in the caravan together, Yun Dai Dai insisted on following Qing Ling, and from time to time showed a flattering expression to Qing Ling, unable to refuse, and also took her. And Tang Yan shouted, "The carriage is shaking!" and rushed into the tent and fell asleep.
The food in the caravan at night was dry cakes soaked in water, which they couldn't eat, so the food of the seven people in this group depended on the three teenagers to pick some wild fruits and hunt some hares to make a living.
Finally arrived in the mountains, those wild meat must be abundant, before Ling Bing attacked the three of them to wander around and set off, Qing Ling deliberately asked a few people to hunt more game and come back. She has a Qiankun ring, she is not afraid of food, and Qing Ling observed that in addition to herself, Ling Bing Zheng, Yuan Feng Chi and Yun Dai also have Qiankun rings. And Jian Tian, Tang Yan, and Qing Ying used this kind of Qiankun bag, although it can be used to put things like the Qiankun ring, but the space inside is much smaller, and it is not as convenient as the Qiankun ring.
In the midst of the caravan, tents were set up, and wagons carrying goods were formed in a circle, enclosing the tents. Piles of flames rose, and although it was summer, it was very cold in the mountains at night.
After Qing Ling finished walking, he also observed the distribution of the caravan, Jin's small tent was in the center of the caravan, it can be said that there were people to protect him all around, and the samurai he invited with money were also scattered around, and the defense was quite perfect.
When he returned to his tent, Ling Bing Raid, Yuan Feng Chi, and Jian Tian had already returned, Jian Tian was holding a wild boar with a foot of more than 300 catties in one hand, and Ling Bing Raid had more than ten pheasants tied to a rope in his hand behind him, and Yuan Feng Chi pulled a snake tail in his hand, and the long snake body was dragged all the way.
"Today's harvest is really not small. Qing Ling nodded with satisfaction, his eyes focused on the big snake with a bowl mouth in Yuan Feng's red hand, and thought to himself, there are good things to eat at night.
