Due to this delay on the road, the convoy did not arrive at the post station in the end, and had to camp on the road. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Fortunately, the people in the convoy have been prepared, in addition to the carriage, there are also tents, which is enough for everyone to rest.

It was just dark, and the bonfire was already lit, and a bunch of people sat around it, roasting dry food.

Xiao Huang didn't have to join it, Shopkeeper Zhao prepared food for him on the road, but he didn't want to be too unsociable, so he joined the guards.

Easily took the dry food handed over by an old guard, Xiao Huang delivered it to his mouth without any trouble, and the old guard leaked a friendly smile.

"You're a good young man, though you look delicate and expensive, and you're pretty good at being a man. ”

Xiao Huang smiled and said, "Has the old gentleman seen a lot of delicate and expensive people?"

The old man smiled, leaned over and said, "Don't say it, although there are not many rich people who have guarded over the years, there will be no less, and most of them look down on us." ”

If it was in the previous life, Xiao Huang might not necessarily end up with what the old man handed over, but with the precipitation of two lifetimes, Xiao Huang is naturally different from those ordinary rich people.

"Has the old gentleman been on this path for a long time?"

The old man stroked his beard and said, "It's been a long time, so long that I can't even remember it." ”

"Has the old gentleman seen the man on the road today?" Xiao Huang still cared a little about that person.

The old man didn't even remember it, he shook his head directly, and said, "If I have seen such a person, I will definitely remember it." ”

Xiao Huang smiled, didn't continue, changed the topic, and said, "Is the caravan every day?"

The old man Yaoyao nodded and said, "How can I be, it's almost enough to have one trip a month." This month, it is your treasurer who has decided first. Then no one knows the departure time, only the notice of the day, the delivery is only by the way, if there are no guests, then when is out of stock, when to go to the luck. ”

"Why don't you use the Merchant House's Treasury? Doesn't it mean that as long as there are runes, they can be connected to the Rune Gate?"

The old man smiled and said: "Runes are not omnipotent, a rune key corresponds to a space, but too much space will even be unstable for rune doors, so most of the rune spaces are sold, and the rest are more profitable than asking for a guard even if they are rented out." ”

Xiao Huang nodded: "Then what if you meet a lot of guests in a month?"

The old man smiled and said, "Generally, there are not so many people in Huangshi County who ask for guards, if you really meet them and choose them at different times, then you can only go two more times." ”

"So there is still the same day?" Xiao Huang smiled and continued.

Speaking of this, the old man came to his senses and said, "Don't say it, you have it today." ”

These Xiao Huang were a little surprised, there are about 30 days in a month, and the probability that two people can choose the same day is very small, and they happened to be met by themselves.

"What a coincidence. ”

The old man said, "No, there are not many people who have asked for guards in the past few months, and it turns out that two of them come and go, or on the same day." ”

Xiao Huang felt that there was a smell of conspiracy behind him.

"Who else hired a guard?" Xiao Huang suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, or maybe it was just a coincidence.

The old man leaned over and said, "Do you see the person in the opposite corner?" and pointed with his chin.

Xiao Huang looked in the direction pointed by the old man, and sure enough, there was a man sitting in the opposite corner.

The man was hidden in the shadows, and could only be seen by the firelight.

The man was almost covered in a black robe, only his face and hands leaked out, his face pale, so thin that he could see the bones directly, and looked like a skeleton covered with a piece of cloth. The scorched hair on his head stood like a steel wire.

It's hard not to notice this kind of shape. It seems that the other party noticed Xiao Huang's gaze and looked this way. Xiao Huang immediately turned his head, although he was not sure, but the other party was likely to come for him, this incomprehensible feeling made Xiao Huang's hairs stand up.

After a few casual words with the old guard, Xiao Huang hurriedly said goodbye to the old guard and returned to the car.

When Xiao Huang returned to the carriage, the coachman had already laid out the quilt and could sleep directly.

Xiao Huang first opened his package, took one of the iron balls he had prepared before from the box and put it on his body, thought for a while, and was not at ease, so he took out all three and put them close to his body.

"Young master, rest early, I'm here to guard. The coachman said from the side.

Xiao Huang said seriously: "Something may happen tonight, it's better to be careful, it's better for you to rest first, and then you can change me in the middle of the night." ”

The coachman said, "Don't worry, young master, I'll be careful, you can sleep with confidence." My body is better than yours, it's fine. ”

Xiao Huang knew that the other party had cultivation, and he was indeed much stronger than himself, and he was a little tired after a day of carriage, so he had to nod, planning to change the coachman in the middle of the night.

Xiao Huang was indeed tired, so he just leaned on the pillow slightly and fell asleep.

When he woke up in the middle of the night, Xiao Huang was already a little energetic, and saw the coachman next to him leaning on the carriage, a little crooked, smiling, and putting the quilt on him. It's just that when his hand touches the coachman, he is a little surprised, and the coachman is a little cold. As soon as the quilt was closed, the coachman's body fell to one side.

Xiao Huang hurriedly shouted, and then he realized that it was quiet and scary outside, not only was there no voice, but even the sound of a horse was gone.

When I got out of the carriage, I saw that the bonfire had not been extinguished, but the people who kept vigil next to the bonfire were lying on the ground staggered.

Xiao Huang hurriedly rushed over, turned over a person, and touched it with his hand, it had been cold for a long time.

Although it is not that he has never seen dead people, but so many people who were alive just now died in front of him, Xiao Huang felt that his whole person was trembling a little, and his stomach was churning, and he was about to squirt out.

Hurriedly pinched his thigh with his hand, forcibly calmed down, took a deep breath indistinctly, and suddenly said, "Come out." ”
