Chapter 17 Xiangxi Sansha 12 Road Encounters Frightened Horses
"Who is it who can't get along with us?" Gu Jieyun leaned over and searched the dead body, but found no clues, squatting there a little stunned: "This person is obviously not ambushed here in advance, but seems to have followed us to catch up!"
"It seems that the matter of the three evils in Xiangxi can't afford to be waved, but this undercurrent is turbulent and tight!" Chai nodded with concern: "But with such tactics to stop us, it can be seen that they haven't found the whereabouts of the three evils in Xiangxi now, we have to take a step forward to do it!"
"How fast is it now!" Chai Yingruo glanced at the fire that was gradually extinguishing on the opposite mountain, and said with some shock: "Those horses must have been crushed to death by stones, and my father said just now, although they failed to hurt us this time, they were somewhat delayed in our trip!"
"How many days can this be delayed?" Old man Yu snorted coldly in the dark shadow: "We have only crossed the river not long now, and the area around the river is a rich place, and it doesn't take far to have a town, and they make a fuss, but let us know that this matter should not be taken lightly, and if we want to calculate it again, I am afraid it will not be so easy!"
Wait until the sky is getting brighter, a few people came down from the hillside, yesterday's resting place has been a mess, several horses were smashed by the rocks of the brain through the belly, if the chai shadow turned back, Chai Zheng is walking up the mountain, has found yesterday's gunpowder explosion where it was, a huge rock, half has been blown away, if it wasn't for the old man Yu found out early, it really wants people to hollow out the whole under the rock, and the small half of the mountain will be blown down by these people!
"Uncle, I'm fast!" Ren Tianbai looked at the mess, and he was already suspicious, but he didn't dare to speak easily before he had conclusive evidence, in fact, everyone was also in the same mind, who was against him, they all guessed one or two, but they didn't dare to say this! Ren Tianbai saw that everyone had no horses, so he volunteered: "I'll go to the town in front first, buy a few horses and come back, so I might as well hurry early!"
"No!" Chai Zheng and the old man Yu rejected Ren Tianbai's idea in unison, the two glanced at each other, Chai Zheng wrinkled his brows and said: "People have already kept up with us, and we must not separate without authorization, in case someone among them catches their way, then there will be more articles that people can do!"
"Do you want us to inform the government in front of us to arrest quickly and send some people out?" Gu Qiyun thought about it, now that he has crossed the Yangtze River, it will not take a few days to go out of the jurisdiction of the Nanjing Criminal Department, since Chai Zheng is still the chief arrest of the Beijing Division, he can naturally mobilize the yamen from all over the six northern provinces to arrest quickly, even if these people are not good, they can also act as guards to some extent, so that everyone can worry less!
"Forget it, don't let them give up their lives in vain!" Chai Zheng shook his head and said: "Now the people who are embarrassed by us are not ordinary people in the martial arts, these catchers are just begging for a bowl of rice to eat in the yamen, if you let them come, others may not dare to start, let's deal with it ourselves, Chai is also a person who has gone through the wind and waves, and I don't believe they can help me!"
After a few people passed through this incident, they were very careful along the road, and never slept in the wild in the middle of the night, Chai Zheng was even faster and slower, or even by taking advantage of the moon and stars, rushing overnight, or staying in the city all day, not even half a mile, even looking for a restaurant, they had also eaten wine and dinner, and suddenly changed to another place to live, even if someone followed, it was very uncertain about the whereabouts of a few people!
"It seems that your method seems to have some effect!" On this day, seeing the boundary of Hubei, Chai Zheng became more and more vigilant, but the old man Yu smiled on the horse: "It's so fast and slow, it's not good for people to set up ambushes halfway, I'm afraid I'm afraid I'm only afraid of ......."
Before the old man Yu finished speaking, Chai Zheng's face also sank, he naturally knew what the old man wanted to say, Ren Tianbai was still a little confused, Chai Ying had already reacted, looked at the two elders with a frightened face and said, "No, will it be?"
"I don't think so!" Gu Qiyun shook his head on the horse and said: "If they succeed, there will be no news from Tu Shao's darthead, and now I haven't seen him come to urge, I think it's the master's strategy along the way, so that these people don't have a clue and don't dare to do it easily!"
"It's better not to be careless!" Chai Zheng was a little disturbed in his heart, except for a few people who were almost buried under the rocks that night, he expected that there would be a battle along the way, especially a few cottages on the way, among which there were many masters, so he was always on guard, but he didn't see any movement until he entered the ground in Hubei, but in fact, he was really a little afraid that the three evils of Xiangxi had fallen into the hands of people!
"Get out of the way in front, get out of the way!" A carriage suddenly rushed forward on the road, loaded with a cart of bamboo, the horseman on the car looked panicked, and the horses driving were obviously crazy, no matter how the coachman whipped, he just refused to stop, and hit a few people straight!
"Oops, the horse is shocked!" Ren Tianbai looked at the bad momentum, and as soon as he got off the horse, he was about to drag the startled horse for the coachman, but Chai Zheng said coldly: "Tianbai, don't move, I'll come!" As soon as he spoke, the figure moved, and he was already dodging on the side of the horse, pulling the reins, pulling down violently, and the galloping horse was violently restrained, raising his neck, wanting to fight against the comer, but since Chai Zheng can be the chief catcher, the kung fu in his hands is not weak, and the horse's head has not yet been raised, and it has been snorted by Chai Zheng, and the two front hooves of the fierce horse suddenly returned, and even the coachman was planted on the ground from the car one by one!
"Thank you Daxia, thank you Daxia!" The coachman got up from the ground one by one, and hurriedly thanked him, but his face was a little angry: "This beast, just to hurry, whipped him twice, and started to go crazy, fortunately he met Daxia, otherwise if this collides with someone, how can it be good!"
"If you are in a hurry, you must have a law!" Chai Zheng let go of the reins, glanced at the coachman and said: "Your horse is not used to drive, and you don't look carefully, you have to put it on the wheel, how can you not have an accident?"
"Don't you blame me!" the coachman said with a look of grievance: "The master's family has only this one horse left in the trough today, and he is in a hurry to send these bamboos to the countryside, so he can only use this beast for a while, how do you know that it is so useless!"
"It's obvious that you're overkill!" Chai Yingruo could also see the advantages and disadvantages of the horses, and said a little angrily: "This is a horse used to ride and hurry, you have to use someone else to pull the cart, if it is you, you are afraid that it will not be comfortable in your heart!"
"Look at what the girl said!" the coachman laughed a little embarrassed and said: "These beasts are supposed to work for people, and they are also whipped when they ride, and they are also whipped when they drive, and they are all whipped in the same way.
