Shuzhong is mountainous, the road is steep and rugged, and the big car is difficult to travel, so the caravan has become the main transportation group, and the largest caravan is the "Hongfu Warehouse", "Hongfu Warehouse" does not do the business of bullying and dominating the market, otherwise At least more than half of the hundreds of caravans, large and small, have been annexed a long time ago, but they are more willing to buy some of the goods of the pony gang at a reasonable price, so that those pony gangs do not have to take risks to do long-distance trading for some goods, just touch on the land of one acre and three points that they are familiar with, and then transport the goods to a relatively larger town, city, after bargaining, handed over to the "Hongfu Inn". The price given by "Hongfu Warehouse" is relatively fair, and it is a stable buyer, sometimes it is not prepared, but it is also subsidized, this world can have such a good thing, and the people of Shengdou are naturally grateful to Dade. The horse gangs in the whole Shu are willing to get closer to the "Hongfu Warehouse", if they have not dealt with the "Hongfu Warehouse", then they really have no confidence to walk the rivers and lakes.

"Hongfu Warehouse" is mostly long-distance, risky, and profitable, one is that the official face is indeed hard, and the other is that there are many masters in the caravan, but this does not mean that all the trips are safe, and the number of robberies is not less, after all, most of the masters in the so-called rivers and lakes are the small King Kong realm, and such masters can only be said to be "Hongfu Warehouse" relatively more, as for the level of the realm, it is uneven. When you encounter some ruthless characters, you can't help it. "Hongfu Warehouse" also has its own rules, robbery can be, but with skill, even a little disability can also have, go back to worship the mountain gate to reason and take it back, or admit it, it will not be too unforgiving, but can not be killed, this is not only the guard of the horse gang, including all the grooms, people's husbands, if someone lives a lawsuit, then I'm sorry, whether it is a rotten bandit, a sect of rivers and lakes, or a poor and crazy sergeant dressed in disguise, all bloodbathed. There is no negotiation, and it is useless for anyone to speak. The three offerings in the warehouse are not raised for nothing, and the silver of the white flowers in the yamen and the barracks is not for nothing.

The destination of this westward trip is more than 400 miles away from the Yanli Mountain, that is, half a month back and forth, the general receipt is only, the main purpose is said to be to help the nobles in the capital to find some precious herbs, this noble identity is extraordinary, but also sent the children of the family to come over with the team, the young man looked handsome, dressed as a scribe, but did not act with the same as the people of the capital who had dealt with before, high up and looked down on people. And the guys, the people can chat and fart for a long time, especially love horses, and are very interested in carrying heavy goods and walking back and forth on the rugged and steep mountain roads for hundreds of miles, and brush the horses, feed the horses are a good hand, the experienced horsemen can not find fault, the horse gang are some men who lick the blood from the knife edge, the temperament is straightforward, and the young man is regarded as his own person in a few days, if it were not for the second shopkeeper from time to time around the young man, the Chen sesame rotten grain in the stomach of these men, the romance in Hualiu Lane in Sichuan has long been wiped out。

Liu Ji is more than 40 years of old horse gang, the west line of this road has always been he is taking the bridge, older, the warehouse actually bought him a house in Sichuanzhou, although it is not big, but in Sichuan has a foothold, that is a stability! Don't say that there is no omission in our family's goods, but there is really one, I have four out of sixty this year, what is there to say?"

Pointing to his feet: "Who would have thought that a bad old man who pulls horses and walks can earn a foothold for his children and grandchildren in Sichuanzhou? Yuan Xiaofei bowed to the old man, not because of guilt, but because of reason, if Li Jinglan was present, he would inevitably think of what the teacher said to him back then: Since ancient times, the people are the most worthy of it!

Li Jinglan, who is alias Jinglan, is sipping a small sip of wine gourd with the old man Liu, and the old man spews wine and talks about the thunder of the year, splitting the mountain with a sword, under the excessive rendering of the folk, there is more style, Fan Mao real person stepped on the auspicious clouds and fluttered in his sleeves, pinched the trick with two fingers, and said "Edict" The golden armor god general in the air, Lei Gongdian mother appeared, but the demon Ji Peng did not admit defeat that day, and showed his true body but he had three heads and six arms, and his face was hideous, and eighteen heavenly thunders were carried for him, and he actually carried sixteen ways, Fan Mao Zhenren saw that he was stubborn, and shook his big sleeves, and a peachwood sword pierced through the clouds and went away, straight into the chest, piercing the demon heart, and finally the two heavenly thunders blew the demon into powder......

Li Jinglan listened with relish, while Yuan Xiaofei looked at this extraordinary young man from a distance, very puzzled.

The reputation of the black-clothed guard in Daqin was that person stepped on a bloody road, and that kind of deterrent power was not only in the court, in the capital, and in Huainan, but also in the heart and soul of every black-clothed guard, leaving a deep imprint.

Even if that person is thousands of miles away now, in this year, how many people who dare to reach out to the black-clothed guards have all hit the wall one by one, as long as there is no news of that person's death, no one in the black-clothed guards will be able to move, unless the emperor disbands this department, and after the disbandment? These people will not return to that person, but the intelligence network built by the imperial court for decades will be lost. This was unbearable for the emperor.

Therefore, this young man's background can be described as heavenly, but why did he come to this wild place alone? Moreover, judging by his familiarity with the work, it was not for the purpose of breaking into the environment of the caravan that he was learning, but that he did this kind of work a lot. What does this mean? Yuan Xiaofei subconsciously stopped thinking about it.

At the moment when she was distracted, it happened that the young man actually glanced back at her and smiled slightly, and Yuan Xiaofei suddenly panicked. Fortunately, it was just a glance, and then he drank and farted with Old Man Liu.

When the gourd wine was not much, it was drunk by the old and young drunkards, and the old man Liu's eyes lit up, and he turned his head to Li Jinglan and said: "Xiaojing, you baby is very good, and now few young people are willing to listen to my nonsense about the old bones, and the amount of alcohol is also hard to get, from the north?"

Li Jinglan smiled and said: "There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure! This is the wise saying of our hometown, the second shopkeeper said that you are always the ancestor of the horse gang, if it were not for this matter, I really dare not invite your old man, thank you I will not say, hypocrisy, when we return to Sichuanzhou, our grandfather and son will have a good drink of two cups! The weather is cold in my hometown, and I start drinking when I wear open crotch pants, and you also know that in the north, the worse the wine, the stronger it is, and you can't afford to buy good wine, who knows but practice a good amount of wine! See the smile!"

"The northern border! Alas, then it is all the end of the world! Compared to the northern border, our Shu land is not miserable, I heard that the white-haired wind over there can blow people into ice sculptures, and the Cangguo people play grass valleys from time to time, which is where people stay, no wonder you look at the handsome baby of your child, but the work is a leader inside and out, it turns out that he is also a bitter background!" The old man seemed to see himself as a young man.

Li Jinglan looked up at the distant mountains, and didn't answer the old man's words, in fact, those days of cold, those poverty, in his eyes, are nothing, those days when he hugged and shivered with his sister who was thinner than himself, often not because of the cold, but because of fear, because the man who made half of Daqin tremble, never by their side, never gave them warmth, so, my sister resolutely picked up the sword from the time the sword fetus woke up, blocking herself behind, that kind of pain, so that Li Jinglan would wake up at night every time, that kind of nightmare that could leave him at any time, plagued him for more than ten years, and that family is still torn apart to this dayThe man seemed to be forever thousands of miles away from him.

"Old man, can you tell me about your child?" Li Jinglan asked suddenly.

"What do you say, it's all elm pimples, I don't have any ability but I think about good things, I've been reading books for a few years, my ability is not much, my style is not small, what do I do all day long?

"Hehe, old man, don't worry about this, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, the eldest brother may be unlucky, there will always be a day of coming out, I envy your family can be together every day, and in a few years you will be able to drink a little wine and make fun of your grandson!"

"Or you baby can speak, the old man sometimes thinks, whether the babies have the ability is actually very good, the ability to get ahead, jumping out of the ravine of Shudi, it's not bad, but in a few years, my body is bad, and there is no one to talk to, but the baby has no ability, but I can support my old age. Isn't that the reason, you say?"

Li Jinglan nodded with a smile.

"I've never seen it in my life, people eat people, people eat soil, heaven and thunder and immortals have seen it, when I was young, I was poor, I didn't have money to marry a daughter-in-law, I only got married when I was in my forties, I had a baby, and now the baby is still filial, but I really haven't given a good face in the past few years, and now it seems that the old man wants to go wrong!" The old man shook the empty wine gourd in his hand and said: "Look, the old man is not good! How dare he drink so clean when he was young? Why do you have to let the children suffer? ”

Li Jinglan silently took the wine gourd and walked to Yuan Xiaofei's side: "Miss Yuan, I'm sorry for you, help me get some wine!"

Yuan Xiaofei took the wine gourd, her eyes complicated.

Some stories don't need to be known, but they seem familiar in a trance.

A good sentence: The heroes of the world are out of my generation, and they are urged by the years of entering the rivers and lakes.
