A few days later, Zhang Rang said goodbye to Tong Suo and Prime Minister Cao Cheng and went to the north alone.

But at least now Zhang Rang is still in a state of being hunted down, so he still disguises himself to avoid being recognized.

A man who is not yet twenty years old, with two beards, looks close to thirty.

The Tiger Mighty Dragon Sparrow and the Blood Shadow were too iconic, so Zhang Rangdu put them on his back in a package, holding a spear in his hand, and looked like a gunslinger.

During this time, Zhang Rang also followed some guards around Prime Minister Cao Cheng to "consult" some marksmanship.

So in terms of marksmanship, although it is far inferior to his own sword skills and swordsmanship, as long as he does not encounter people who are too strong, there is no big problem.

Moreover, Zhang Rang has not yet completely eliminated all the qi and blood power in his body that did not belong to him in the battle of Shuanglong Mountain.

If you continue to break through your strength at this time, it will naturally be easy to cause an unstable foundation.

So now Zhang Rang is not in a hurry to break through his strength.

While hurrying, I sharpened my marksmanship, after all, when I got to the north, no one knew what I would encounter.

A little more preparation, a little more certainty.

Half a month later, Zhang Rang finally came to the area of Hangu Pass in the information provided by Xiahou Weime.

Hangu Pass can be said to be one of the areas where the northern forces and the Central Plains forces exchanged most frequently.

Especially in this place, there are often a lot of businessmen from the north who come to the Central Plains to buy a large number of materials, and even buy some forbidden things privately, and sell them back to make a lot of money.

Similarly, the merchants of the Central Plains will also take some goods to the north, and after making a lot of money, they will bring back some goods from the north to make money at both ends.

And now near Hanguguan Dayudu, there is a group of businessmen from the north, who have been here for three days.

The wine, wool, and some medicinal herbs that can only be found in the north have been sold, and at the same time, he has also bought a lot of things that can only be found in the south.

For example, medicinal herbs, such as tea, such as silk, and so on.

At the same time, there are also many caravans recruiting people who travel with them along the way.

In principle, each caravan had its own escort force.

It's just that coming all the way from the north, it can't be so peaceful all the time, and you will inevitably encounter some bandits, and manpower injuries are inevitable.

And the rivers and lakes in the north are far more chaotic than those in the Central Plains.

The reason for the destruction of Jianyu Villa was the assassination of the imperial court.

But in the rivers and lakes in the north, many officials and even generals in the army died at the hands of the people in the rivers and lakes.

Treating the people of Yuan Shaochu, the king of Jizhou, everyone in the rivers and lakes dared to do it, not to mention their small caravans.

Therefore, in addition to buying goods and selling them, the caravans also have to replenish some escort forces.

At this time, some people who originally wanted to go to the north became their best choice.

This group of caravans from the north had a total of more than a dozen large and small caravans, and there was a small caravan of only ten people, including the leader, servants and guards.

At the beginning, there were fifteen people, but after several attacks on the way, five died, and in the end only ten people remained.

And now the team leader Yuan Qingmei looked at these people under her and shook her head helplessly.

"Miss, we've been recruiting people since day one, but we have limited money, and most of the people who come aren't good people. That's why now, there is not a single guard, should we lower the requirements?"

Yuan Qingmei sighed when she heard the suggestion of Li Benzheng, the guard uncle next to her.

"After all, our money is limited this time, and many people have been recruited by the Jin family. Perhaps, we will have to unite with a few others. ”

When Li Benzheng heard this, he grinned, "My young lady! Among the caravans that came this time, in addition to the Jin family and the Wu family, it was the Zhao family. The Jin family and the Wu family are the mother's families of several other sons in the family, and they will definitely not help us. And the son of the Zhao family has been coveting Miss for a long time, and when the time comes, when the time comes, our people will be placed in the most dangerous position every time. When I came, when Zhao Zihan deliberately sent someone to come over to help very late, I could already see that something was wrong!"

Yuan Qingmei smiled bitterly and shook her head, "But if there are only ten of us, I am afraid that we will ...... before we reach Yuanjiacheng on the way."

Dangdangdang –

Just as Yuan Qingmei and Li Benzheng were discussing the recruitment of guards, they suddenly heard a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

I saw a young man in black in his twenties with a mustache standing at the door.

The young man was dressed in black, and although he could see a little dust from the hem of his trousers, he was still clean.

With a steel gun on his back, he led a horse and looked inside.

"Are you going to recruit guards to the north?"

As he spoke, the young man led the horse in, handed the reins of the horse to one of the guards beside him, and then sat down on a table in the courtyard and poured himself a cup of tea.

"This young man, you handed over the horse to us like this? Don't you worry, you can't pass our problems and can't become the guard of our caravan?" Li Benzheng couldn't help but ask when he saw Zhang Rang sitting down unceremoniously.

Zhang Rang smiled lightly, "I have a problem, no matter where I am, I like to inquire about the rules and conditions of this place first." This time, more than a dozen caravans came from the north, the largest was the Jin family, followed by the Bai family, and the third was the Zhao family. The rest of the caravans were not very good, but those caravans were all gathered together by the Zhao family. Only your Yuan family's caravan and a Zou family's caravan did not join the Zhao family's alliance. It can be said that now the two of you are the most lacking in guards, and the Zou family still has more than 20 people by themselves, and there are only ten of you left. I guess you're going to leave in a few days, excuse me, do you still have a choice?"

Yuan Qingmei frowned, although she didn't want to admit what this young man said, but what he said was indeed the truth.

"Since Your Excellency has been so clear about our Yuan family's caravan, then you must have thought about the price as well. ”

Zhang Rang smiled when he heard this, "Miss Yuan, don't worry, I have a problem, that is, I will never take advantage of others." Your Yuan family's caravan has encountered difficulties, and it just so happens that I have also encountered difficulties. Along the way, I, Zhang, don't take a penny, as long as you take care of food and housing. How?"

Yuan Qingmei didn't expect that the other party would not take a penny.

So I couldn't help but look at Li Benzheng next to him.

Li Benzheng is a powerhouse in the Sigang Realm, and he can see through Zhang Rang is cultivation in the Sanhua Realm at a glance, but because Zhang Rang used the life and death breathing technique, if Zhang Rang is willing, he will not be found if he lies on the ground and pretends to be dead, let alone being seen through by the martial artists of the Sigang Realm.

"Yes, yes, but I need to know, what trouble are you getting into?" asked Yuan Qingmei very seriously.

Zhang Rang smiled, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I was chased and killed by the enemy, and I can't get along in the Central Plains, so I can only go to the north." ”

Zhang Rang said lightly, as if being hunted down was a very common thing.
