The dart team kept hurrying, and only in the evening did they slow down a little and came to a rural village to stay overnight.

With the painful lesson of the last night camp being attacked by sneak attack, Zhang Xiaohua privately grabbed Zhang Xiaohu and whispered a lot of words, Zhang Xiaohu smiled, touched his head, and said: "It should be okay here, you see, we are camped at the intersection of the small village, it is densely populated, even if someone thinks of bad intentions, there are scruples, and we have just come out on the first day, there must be vigilance, everything will be careful, if I rob, it will definitely be put in the next few days, choose a wilderness." ”

Zhang Xiaohu paused for a moment, and said: "In addition, this route is the people of the previous dart bureau walked, the campsites along the way are used before, you don't look at this day the team runs very fast, in fact, the speed is controlled haode, if there are no other accidents, the whole situation is controlled by our dart board, and, you don't look at Luo Da Dart head is lazy on weekdays, in fact, he is also a good hand in the dart game, his experience is extremely rich." ”

looked at Zhang Xiaohua's unconvinced look, and said: "Okay, if you don't believe it, just go and see, just learn more experience, and when you grow up, you will also go to the dart game to make a big dart." Oh, by the way, you've been busy these days, how are your wounds?"

Zhang Xiaohua rolled up her sleeves, the wound was almost healed, Zhang Xiaohu was relieved, and said: "Children are good, if you are an adult, you have to raise it for a few more days." ”

Then, thinking about something, he asked, "Also, Xiaohua, your right hand ......"

Zhang Xiaohua listened, knowing that the second brother remembered his injury again, and said with a smile: "It's almost good, I feel that the fingers of my right hand are more flexible now, and I can also exert strength, as if I almost can't completely clench my fist." ”

After speaking, he raised his right hand and barely clenched his fist in front of Zhang Xiaohu, Zhang Xiaohu looked at it and said repeatedly: "Okay, good." "My eyes are damp.

Thinking about it, I took my younger brother out to mix, because of my own reasons, my brother's right hand was disabled, how can I feel bad in my heart, see that my brother's right hand is obviously better, and it seems that it will soon be able to recover as before, where can I still be as calm as water?

At the same time, he also had a trace of worry in his heart, the doctor who showed Zhang Xiaohua his hand was a veteran doctor of the Lotus Dart Bureau, who had been in the Lotus Dart Bureau for decades, and had treated countless bruises, bone and veins and internal and external injuries, and that vision was accurate, he said that Zhang Xiaohua's hand was impossible to recover, and naturally it was also the accumulation of decades of experience, and it would not be wrong, and I don't know if the degree of recovery of his younger brother is out of his expectations, or, Zhang Xiaohua's hand has recovered to the point where it can no longer be recovered?

However, Zhang Xiaohu immediately calmed down, no matter what the doctor said, anyway, Zhang Xiaohua had recovered to such an extent, which greatly exceeded his expectations, whether he could practice boxing or not, at least in his future life, he would not have the slightest problem, finally, Zhang Xiaohu felt a little more relaxed in his heart.

After telling Zhang Xiaohua a few more words, Zhang Xiaohu went to busy with his own affairs.

The dart team camped in a very orderly manner, and they got up after a while, Zhang Xiaohua didn't help in any way, and asked Zhang Xiaohu about the tent used, Zhang Xiaohua took some things off the carriage and put them all into the tent.

Not long after, Yuan Changqing came to call Zhang Xiaohua, since he knew that Zhang Xiaohua was going to deduct food expenses, Yuan Changqing took care of Zhang Xiaohua, but if there was anything to eat or drink, they all came to him, Zhang Xiaohua was naturally not polite, and followed Yuan Changqing to eat and drink.

Zhang Xiaohua slept very soundly at night, and when the day dawned, when she opened her eyes, the first thing she said was: "Second brother, did someone rob last night?"

Hearing Zhang Xiaohu crying and laughing, a chestnut burst into his head, and scolded with a smile: "Haven't woken up yet?!"

After breakfast, the dart team set up camp and continued to move forward.

After more than ten days like this, there was no tendency to be robbed, and there was no chance to even sleep in the wild, Zhang Xiaohua became more and more suspicious, if Ou Yan didn't take the initiative to take a shortcut that day, would others have a chance to sneak attack their camp?

The farther north, the colder the weather, the stronger the cold wind on the road, and the huge pennant embroidered with the word "lotus" blown by the wind "crackled".

On this day, when they were walking to one of the few mountain roads, the speed of the dart team had already slowed down and moved forward slowly.

Zhang Xiaohu also stayed behind, following Zhang Xiaohua's carriage and moving forward slowly.

Zhang Xiaohua looked boredly at the snow-covered shrubs on both sides, and thought to herself, isn't this kind of environment an excellent terrain for robbery?

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a rapid gong sound, and a loud voice shouted in front of me: "I planted this tree, I opened this mountain, I want to hit here, and leave it to buy road money!"

Zhang Xiaohua's eyes lit up and shouted, "Someone robbed?!"

Zhang Xiaohu glared at Zhang Xiaohua helplessly, and said, "Why are you so happy to hear that someone is robbing you?"

Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile: "Last time we met bandits, more than a dozen people, and it was fun to play with us in three games and two wins, and besides, there are not dozens of people in our dart team? How can you be afraid of them? Don't you send them away in a few moments?"

"Dizzy~" Zhang Xiaohu said secretly: "It turns out that Xiaohua wants to see the excitement." ”

Zhang Xiaohu said angrily: "Last time you encountered more than a dozen, can you say that the bandits are all dozens, although there are many people in our dart team, but if there are hundreds of bandits, how can we deal with it? You and I are different prisoners?"

"Ah~ That's it," Zhang Xiaohua exclaimed: "Then what should I do? Who knows how many thieves there are in this gang, are there any powerful ones that the second brother can't beat?"

At this time, Zhang Xiaohu comforted him and said: "Xiaohua, you are sitting in the car, I will take a look in front of me, it is estimated that Luo Da Dart has passed by this time." ”

Zhang Xiaohua was disobedient, and begged: "Second brother, you can take me with you, I want to see, the bandit that has not been met in a hundred years, is it okay?"

Zhang Xiaohu looked at his doting brother, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, you come and sit behind me, but remember that when you get there, you can't say a word." ”

When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, he immediately jumped out of the car, ran to Zhang Xiaohu's horse, Zhang Xiaohu bent down and grabbed his hand, and as soon as he used his strength, he dragged him up and let him sit behind him, and then slowly walked to the front of the team.

The line of twenty cars is also quite long, and the dart master and the executioner of the dart board are all armed with weapons in their hands, and the convoy is tightly protected, and no one goes to the front to watch the excitement like Zhang Xiaohua.

Zhang Xiaohu hit the horse and walked to the front of the team, not in a hurry to step forward, the front of the team is an open space, several dart divisions have rushed over, the usual look at the lazy Luo Da dart, now riding a horse to stand in front, kicking a spear in his hand, very calmly looking ahead.

Zhang Xiaohua secretly poked out a little head from under the second brother's armpit, looked forward cautiously, and when he saw the situation in the field, he couldn't help but gasp.

I don't want to be like him last time, there are a dozen people, a few horses. I could see the front of the convoy, first there were more than a dozen big men with various weapons in their hands, looking at them coldly, and behind the dozen horses, there were dozens of big men who also took weapons, all standing calmly, as if they were lined up in a neat formation, completely without the laziness of the group of bandits I saw last time, and what made Zhang Xiaohua most nervous was that in the trees on both sides, there seemed to be a lot of people hidden in the shadows, and it seemed that the whole convoy was surrounded by a trend.

Zhang Xiaohua asked in a low voice: "Second brother, what should I do about this? There are so many people, we are probably not opponents, are we going to fight? You have to be careful, why don't you have a weapon?"

At this time, Zhang Xiaohu seemed to be unusually quiet, and he whispered: "Xiaohua, don't speak, just watch quietly." ”

When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, she immediately shut up.

Sure enough, at this moment, Luo Da Dart, who was standing in front of the horse, moved, he shook the reins, and let the horse move forward slowly, until the center of the open space in front of him, he stopped, and then, clasped his fists with both hands and said: "I don't know which friend on the road is in front, please come forward and speak." ”

Hearing this, among the bandits opposite, there was a red-faced, square-faced man, who was also beating horses, and greeted him, and the two horses stopped when they were close, and the man also returned the salute: "Below is Yang Shuo, the leader of the withered grass mountain and the grass, I don't know what your Excellency says?"

Luo Dart Head said: "Below is Luo Ruihe, the dart head of the Lotus Dart Bureau in Pingyang City, the bodyguard passed by your place, and asked a friend to raise his noble hand. ”

The king of the mountain frowned, and said loudly: "Oh, it turned out to be a friend of the Ethereal Sect from afar, please take a look at the flag." ”

When Na Luo Dart heard this, until he met the main master, he also came according to the rules of the road, and he was overjoyed, and said, "Leader Yang, please wait." ”

After saying that, he came back from the horse, walked to the front of the convoy, and shouted: "Please hold the flag!"

So, the two dart masters next to the first car, bowed down and dismounted, came to the front of the car, respectfully took off the dart flag from the car, walked to the front of the Luo dart head horse, handed the dart flag to him, Luo Dart head held the flagpole with both hands, shook it hard in the air with both hands, and then hit the horse back to the open space in the center, the waiting Yang leader waited for Luo Dart head to come close, carefully looked at the dart flag in his hand, nodded, and then, arched his hand at the dart flag, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it is a friend of the Ethereal faction, Yang is sluggish, if you are free, you can go to the cottage to talk about it." ”

Luo Darttou smiled and said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, today is in a hurry, there is no time, if you pass by next time, you will definitely come to visit." ”

Yang Tou said: "Then please Luo Darttou go all the way, this is a token of this cottage, go five hundred miles, all the way." ”

After speaking, shaking his hand and throwing over a small sign, Luo Dart Head continued with a smile, and said: "Thank you so much, there is a little bit of heart in the back of this dart game, please Leader Yang smiled." ”

Leader Yang nodded and said, "Luo Darthead is bothered. It is not far from the next and has a smooth journey. ”

After speaking, he bowed his hand again, circled the horses back to the main formation, and explained a few words to the people behind him, and the dozen or so horses followed him back to the mountains and forests.

When Luo Da Dart saw the thieves evacuating, he also came back from his horse, and gave a few words to the dart master behind, and then, with a gesture, the convoy continued to move forward.

When Zhang Xiaohu saw the convoy pulling out, he took Zhang Xiaohua to the back of the car, but Zhang Xiaohua couldn't live or die, relying on the second brother's horse, Zhang Xiaohu also said helplessly: "Ride for a while, and when I go to the front, you have to go back to the car." ”

Zhang Xiaohua nodded.

When Zhang Xiaohua walked through the open space with the convoy just now, the entire convoy had already passed, Zhang Xiaohua saw the dart master who had just been instructed by Luo Dart, riding a horse to the bandit with a bag of things in his hand, and handed it to a bandit who was guarding there, the bandit took it, weighed it with his hand, smiled and arched his hand at the dart master, beat the horse and left, and the dart master immediately circled the horse and chased to the front of the team.

Zhang Xiaohua looked very puzzled, and asked Zhang Xiaohu in a low voice: "Second brother, why is this robbery so strange?

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "What do you think robbery is? Is it just fighting, killing, and killing?"

Zhang Xiaohua said: "If you don't fight, kill, kill, how can you wait to rob your property?"

Zhang Xiaohu said strangely: "Hehe, nothing strange, I had the same idea as you at the beginning, the first time I encountered a robbery, the nervous sweat came out, but after a few times, it was like this, the thunder was heavy and the rain was small, and then I understood what was going on." ”

Zhang Xiaohua said curiously: "Is there any inside story that can't be done?"

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "In fact, it is very simple, the thief robbery is nothing more than to seek wealth, and seeking wealth is also a method, if it is just a fight to kill and kill, it is to fall into the inferior, the ancients are good, killing a thousand self-damage and eight hundred, this killing also has a price, if you can kill once and fall into a thousand pieces of property, it is naturally worth it, but where will there be such a haode business? Besides, every time you are fighting and killing, how many brothers do you use to fight hard? Therefore, robbery also requires skill, if you can not fight, you will not fight, even if you harvest less wealth every time, as long as you have it every time, then it will be a long stream?"

Zhang Xiaohua nodded thoughtfully, and said secretly: "The ancients are good, three hundred and sixty lines, and the line is the champion, and this thief must also have a professional vision." ”

Zhang Xiaohu continued: "This merchant on the road, generally know that there is such a risk, if their property is small, naturally not too afraid of bandits, when encountered, just give some silver taels." If the property is big, you must find someone to protect it, and the dart game is just doing business. If you blindly use force, then the bandits everywhere can't get along with you, and the dart game will not be opened, because the dart game can't stand always killing, so it is very important in the dart game to be the way, or face. If you have a big face, many bandits know your signboard, and naturally they will take care of each other when they meet. ”

"Take care of each other?" Zhang Xiaohu was a little stunned.

"That's right, take care of each other, that is, the dart bureau will give the bandit some silver money according to the value of his bodyguard's property, which is considered to be the road money, and the bandit will accept it with a smile and let you go, just like today, you don't need to worry about the harassment of the bandits for five hundred miles. Zhang Xiaohu explained.

Zhang Xiaohua was puzzled and said, "Second brother, when you say this, it's like a friend." ”

Zhang Xiaohu blinked and said, "The snake and mouse family, hehe, it's the same." ”

Zhang Xiaohua asked again: "If there is no protection of the dart board, what if the merchant also gives so much money?"

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "If there is no protection of the dart board, then the merchant is a piece of braised pork, who doesn't want to eat it in one bite, where do you care about the little benefit you give?"

Zhang Xiaohua asked again: "Then there were so many bandits just now, and when they came up together, our dart bureau probably couldn't deal with it, didn't they eat it all in one bite?" Even if they had some casualties, it was worth it." ”

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "This is going to talk about another aspect, this dart game is also big and small, the strength is uneven, if it is a small dart game, there is naturally this risk, however, our lotus dart game, behind it is the ethereal faction, to put it bluntly, it is the ethereal faction in the dart line to make money, maybe they can eat all this team, but then they will inevitably face the ethereal faction's thunderous revenge." The Ethereal Sect is a well-known faction in the rivers and lakes, and if you send some disciples at will, you can take this thief in a nest, how can they have the guts?"

Zhang Xiaohu said quickly, swallowed his spit, and then said: "There is another point, this bandit can occupy the mountain as the king here, and it is inseparable from the support of the Jianghu sect near the left, and this sect is not unexpected, there should also be a similar dart game of the lotus dart game, if they don't give us face, the ethereal faction can not only exterminate this bandit, but also know the bandits within their own shili range, and rob and kill their dart game." ”

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said: "I understand, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is still respected by force, if you are strong, everyone will talk about it and disperse, and make money with harmony, if you are weak, you have to knock out your front teeth and swallow it in your stomach." By the way, in this way, are the thieves in Xicui Mountain behind our ethereal faction?"

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "I don't know, but Xicuishan is too small, even if they want to join the Ethereal Sect, the Ethereal Sect will not pay attention to them." ”

Zhang Xiaohua sighed and said, "Alas, this river and lake is still too complicated, I can't tell it." ”

Then, Zhang Xiaohua said happily: "If you say that, wouldn't the dart protected by your dart bureau be very safe, and you don't have to fight?"

Zhang Xiaohu smiled bitterly: "Where is the carefree you say? There will always be blind thieves who come to rob, this dart master is a knife licking blood, don't you see that the dart game has to recruit new bodyguards and executioners every year? Where have the old people gone? However, I am still only a executioner, and this kind of hands-on thing is not my turn." ”

Zhang Xiaohua listened to it and was silent in her heart.
