Chapter 23 Cangzhou, Wanjian Mountain
Under the leadership of Pang Erlong and Xiang Kong, the two came to the back door of the dart bureau, the goods had been loaded, and the six dart masters were on standby at any time, all of them were ready to fight, and the momentum was not lost to the previous Pang and Xiang two. But what Zhou Ying'er noticed was pulling the goods on a tall horse.
Zhou Ying'er ran forward despite the dissuasion, and found that the horse's back had already covered her head, and she was surprised:
"Wow! It turns out that the horse is so big, I always thought that the old ox in the village chief was the biggest, but I didn't expect it to be taller than the cow. ”
"It's still a child. Pang Erlong sighed.
Bai Yilan on the side was just smiling, and didn't want to interfere with Zhou Ying'er's happiness. Turning to look at the three truckloads of goods hidden in the cloth, he asked, "What are we keeping?"
In order to please Bai Yilan, Pang Erlong was about to speak but was stopped by Xiang Kong, Xiang Kong apologized to Bai Yilan, "I'm sorry, the dart bureau has the rules of the dart bureau, ignoring the goods, and only responsible for escorting." ”
Bai Yilan nodded, and she also understood. "And when are we leaving?"
"At your command, we can set off at any time. Pang Erlong bowed his waist respectfully, and tried every means to change his bad image in Bai Yilan's heart.
Looking at Zhou Ying'er, who is very fond of horses, she couldn't help but want her to feel the pleasure of riding, so she asked Pang Erlong, "In addition to the three horses that pulled the goods, is there anything else on this trip?"
"Yes, yes, I'll bring you the horse of the leader of Zhang. ”
After a while, a horse appeared in front of Zhou Ying'er, obviously this horse was incomparably strong and beautiful, well-proportioned and tall, with a shiny coat, the most striking feature was the long mane that hung down on the neck, and even the saddle on the back was so exquisite......
Since its appearance, Zhou Ying'er's eyes have never left this horse, and it is also very meek to enjoy this kind of praise gaze. Bai Yilan smoothed his hair, then turned over and stepped on it, and stabilized the horse. Then he stretched out his hand to Zhou Ying'er, whose eyes were straight, "Don't you want to ride a horse, come up." ”
Zhou Ying'er was already eager to try, took Bai Yilan's hand and easily climbed on the horse, and sat in front of Bai Yilan. The first time she rode a horse, Zhou Yinger was a little nervous and gently held the horse's head, but she still couldn't stop shaking, and she was already shaky before she started.
Fortunately, Bai Yilan pulled the reins in time to protect Zhou Ying'er, "No, you can also see it, I only have one hand to use, you'd better lean to the left, even if you fall on the right, I can't help it." ”
Zhou Ying'er obediently leaned her body to the left, half leaning on Bai Yilan's arm, although the horse didn't look so peaceful, but her heart was much more steady.
Seeing that Bai Yilan had already mounted the horse, Pang Erlong immediately prepared many matters for the journey, checked the rope that tied the goods, and confirmed the destination and the escort personnel. Then walked up to Bai Yilan and faced the six dart masters, dragging Bai Yilan out of thin air with both hands, and his tone was very flattering, "This, it is Bai Yilan, the leader of this dart, don't look at his young age, but in three or two strokes, he will beat the leader of Zhang Yi without the power to fight again." Well, whatever problems are in the future, it's up to him to decide......"
The six dart masters were obviously professionally trained, and in the face of Pang Erlong's words, they just said "understood" neatly. No more words. And the whole process only stares at the goods, and is not disturbed by any foreign objects.
Looking at the quality of the dart masters, Bai Yilan couldn't help but believe that there were nearly 100 horses in the entire dart game, but now there were no horses. It's really because of the sheer number of businesses.
Everything was ready, and when Bai Yilan was about to give the order to leave, he turned around but didn't see Xiang Kong's figure. After looking around again, he still didn't see it, so he looked at Pang Erlong and asked, "Where is Xiang Kong?"
"Xiang Kong......" Pang Erlong glanced around casually, and said strangely: "Eh, ...... who was still here just now"
Just as Bai Yilan was about to get off the horse to check, Xiang Kong's voice came from the back door, "I'm here." ”
When he came out of the door, he was still holding the iron sword that had stayed on the courtyard wall, but the blood stains on it had been wiped clean, restoring the dark surface of the sword body. He walked quickly to Bai Yilan and handed the sword to Bai Yilan. Zhou Ying'er took the sword and hugged it tightly in her arms as before......
"Thank you. Bai Yilan also remembered when she saw the sword, the sword that she had worked so hard to build was almost 'given away' by herself again.
Xiang Kong still didn't have a lot to say, "Hu Darttou asked me to get it." ”
Now that the personnel have arrived, Bai Yilan doesn't want to delay any longer. He made a forward gesture towards the back, "Now it's all ready, let's go!"
Immediately, a group of ten people, four horses, and three trucks swaggered out of the city. This is another high-profile trip with hundreds of cavalry after the last expedition. In particular, the banner of the "Weide Dart Bureau" planted on the carriage is not much better than the military flag of the Shangwei Army.
The team headed north, towards the place where Bai Yilan was born. But once the novelty of horseback riding is over, the tediousness of the journey is inevitable. Even Bai Yilan has to chat with the people around her from time to time to relieve fatigue.
"Shall we take the official road or the small road?"
In terms of darts, Xiang Kong's true ability is far beyond that of Pang Erlong, who can only play tricks. Pang Erlong was still trying his best to organize the language, and Xiang Kong had already blurted out: "Xiaolu." ”
"Aren't we afraid of being robbed, so why do we have to take the path to give the robbers a chance?"
Xiang Kong was not in a hurry or impatient, and explained calmly: "The entire Huaibei region here has been controlled by the government and the Dragon and Tiger Gang, and they will set up roadblocks on the main road and even confiscate goods. ”
Now that Bai Yilan heard all kinds of news from the imperial court, it was really hard to say. The entire Wanjian Villa was destroyed by the imperial court, and Bai Yilan should have hated them to the core. But after Ying'er was kidnapped, when she couldn't do anything, it was the court that helped her. So he didn't want to jump to conclusions. But suddenly I thought about it, the justice and evil of the court. Maybe it depends on whether the Dragons and Tigers are present or not............
Bai Yilan asked again: "Then you didn't think about fighting the Dragon and Tiger Gang to the end?"
Pang Erlong finally interjected, "Don't even think about it, not to mention that the Dragon and Tiger Gang has the support of the imperial court to cover the sky with one hand, even if there is no imperial court, the helmsman of the Huaibei branch of the Dragon and Tiger Gang is not something that we can compete with with a small dart game." ”
“...... Who's this helmsman?"
Pang Erlong immediately replied: "He is one of the elders of the Dragon and Tiger Gang's chief helm, the king of capture, and Wu Tong's personal disciple......"
Hearing the name "Wu Tong", Bai Yilan only felt unhappy for a while, but couldn't remember who this person was for a while. But the sharp pain from his right hand, which had long been unconscious, told Bai Yilan that this person had killed his mother and abolished himself......
Bai Yilan didn't show anger, and asked flatly, "What's his name, and where is he now?"
"You...... What do you want to do!" Pang Erlong couldn't help but be scared when he saw that Bai Yilan was in a wrong state.
Bai Yilan heard the change in his tone and smiled at him, "Don't worry, I'll ask." ”
"Into the Quartet, Cangzhou Wanjian Mountain. Seeing that Pang Erlong didn't reply for a long time, Xiang Kong said the answer.
After hearing this answer, Bai Yilan let go of the reins and stopped the horse, and Pang Erlong, who was following behind, was about to step forward to check the situation, but saw that Bai Yilan's back was trembling on the horse, he looked from behind and found that Bai Yilan was even breathing a lot heavier. Immediately after, a cold voice remembered, "Say it again, where is he?"
This move undoubtedly frightened Pang Xiang and the others, "Cangzhou, Wan ...... Wan Jian ...... Mountain ......"
Bai Yilan was also trying his best to restrain himself, this was something he should have thought of a long time ago, but it came too suddenly, so that he couldn't get rid of this hatred. With the last trace of fantasy, Bai Yilan cautiously asked, "What about the Ten Thousand Swords Villa?"
"Wanjian Villa, now it is the ...... of the Dragon and Tiger Gang Huaibei Branch" Pang Erlong is the most observant on weekdays, but now he doesn't know what kind of result Bai Yilan wants to hear, so he has to tell the truth.
After finishing speaking, Bai Yilan did not react, and Ma also stopped, but the two Pang Xiang brothers were tormented. Both of them will be more or less afraid of such a powerful but moody person......
Zhou Ying'er turned her head and saw Bai Yilan with a gloomy face, and she was also puzzled, and asked in her immature voice, "Brother Bai, aren't we leaving?"
Hearing Zhou Ying'er's call, Bai Yilan immediately sobered up. This phenomenon is wonderful, every time he falls into the whirlpool of hatred, when he hears Zhou Ying'er's warm voice, this feeling that even he can't say can always bring light to him and dispel darkness......
"It's okay, let's keep walking, drive ......" Bai Yilan regained her smile, swept away the haze, and continued to move forward.
The two people in the back also stabilized their pounding hearts, as if they were relieved for the rest of their lives. Watching Bai Yilan ride away, Pang Erlong secretly discussed: "What did we just say? ”
Xiang Kong also thought about it seriously and said, "It seems to be Wanjian Villa." ”
Pang Erlong was even more puzzled, "Then he hates Wanjian Villa?"
"I think it's the Dragon and Tiger Gang that took away the Ten Thousand Swords Villa......" Xiang Kong carefully scrutinized the conversation just now, and seemed to have found a clue.
"Then what do you mean, he wants to avenge Ten Thousand Swords Villa?"
"I don't rule out this possibility, he said that Cangzhou is his hometown, and the owner of Wanjian Villa is surnamed Bai ......"
"You mean?" Pang Erlong opened his mouth wide, but before he could exclaim, another message suddenly appeared, "By the way, I heard when I was walking a dart that the Ten Thousand Swords Villa was destroyed, but the young owner of the village was missing......"
The more they thought about this relationship, the more the two felt the cold wind biting, looking at Bai Yilan's back, moving their legs that didn't obey anything.
"Looks like we've invited a plague god......"
Zhou Ying'er heard all their conversations, but she knew that she couldn't talk nonsense in front of people, and now there were only Bai Yilan and her. So she couldn't help but ask: "Brother Bai, the Ten Thousand Swords Villa they are talking about is your home, right......?"
"Hmm. ”
"Are you going for revenge, then?"
Bai Yilan wanted to touch her head again, but she couldn't spare her hand, so she could only use her chin to slam on Zhou Ying'er's head instead of comforting, and said, "I must avenge this revenge, but don't worry, I will protect you?"
