Summer in the north is always like this, just after the rain, the sun is scorching fiercely, and the sun is hot on people. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The sky is clear and cloudless, an eagle falcon hovers in the low sky, and more than a dozen carriages below are lined up, slowly moving north along the potholed official road, and the red pennant of "Splendid Dart Bureau" on the carriage swings slightly with the breeze.

At the front of the convoy, a sturdy boy rolled his trouser legs, stepped on the mud with bare feet, and carried a green and yellow gourd with a narrow neck and a large belly with a strange shape, and carried a bronze cymbal in each hand.

"Darts travel all over the world, splendid flags are raised ......"

In this vast prairie, melodious voices are heard far and wide.

The boy was followed by a little fox, but he was having a good time in the mud, and suddenly ran to the grass by the roadside to catch some grasshoppers, and then ran to roll in the mud on the road, and his golden hair was covered with rotten mud.

The mud is deep and slippery, the car is slow, and occasionally the rear carriage gets stuck in the mud, and it has to toss for a long time. I walked like this for more than an hour, but I only walked eight or nine miles. Just when he was upset, a tall and thin young man came up from behind and said, "Senior Brother Luo, I'll come, you go and rest for a while." ”

"That's going to be hard, brother. Peng Yu wiped the sweat from his head, handed the big cymbal in his hand to the tall and thin young man, and then returned to the middle of a carriage and sat down.

The dirty little fox still wanted to run into his arms, but after he was thrown aside with his big tail, he only dared to squat on the wheel honestly, staring at Peng Yu with round eyes, and seemed to be a little aggrieved. This made Peng Yu laugh, and the boredom in his heart dissipated a lot.

I took off the gourd behind my back and poured it into my mouth, and the spicy and mellow wine smell went down my throat, and I instantly became refreshed. smiled at the middle-aged black-faced man in the car: "Uncle Zhao, do you want to take a bite?"

The middle-aged man was probably a little dazed just now, and when he heard Peng Yu speak, he hurriedly said: "Brother Yi's wine, naturally I want to take a sip." ”

The two of them are in charge of this dart car on weekdays, and they have been together for four or five days, and they are more familiar with each other.

Uncle Zhao took a sip of wine, wiped the wine stain on his lower lip with his sleeve, and said, "This thief is really evil, Brother Yi was tired enough to shout darts just now, right?"

"Fortunately, the prairie here in Beicang is much better than the desert near Luocheng, and if you shout in this kind of weather, you will be filled with a mouthful of dust. ”

"It's also said, people, you have to know how to be sufficient, more than the upper is less than the bottom. By the way, do you know what kind of goods are being transported on this trip?" the middle-aged man suddenly said mysteriously.

"Isn't it just that there has been a great drought in the north in recent years and there has been a shortage of grain, and Qinglongtang has brought some grain and rice back to the Longhumen of the General Altar? I have heard Master say it many times along the way. ”

"Hey, so you're still too young, as far as I know, this is the tax silver paid by Qinglong Hall, which is 200,000 taels of silver. ”

"Uncle Zhao is laughing, right? With so much silver, how can Qinglongtang rest assured that we will send it to the Splendid Dart Bureau, and besides, this Beicang territory is their old nest, and the road is much harder than ours. ”

The middle-aged man scratched his head and said: "It seems to be such a liha, alas, don't care about it, anyway, we are just the hard work of the escort bodyguard, and it's useless to care so much." ”

Although Peng Yu said this, he was also a little puzzled in his heart. There were more than 20 truckloads of goods on this trip, and there were fifty or sixty bodyguard masters, and there were two big dart masters. If it were an ordinary dart, these twenty or so truckloads of grain and rice would be far from needing so many people.

However, Peng Yu also thought casually, as Uncle Zhao said, what goods were transported in the car had little to do with him, and the value was higher, it was nothing more than a few taels of silver to go back.

Thinking like this, he fiddled with the green and yellow gourd in his hand again. This gourd was brought back by him from the underworld, and he remembered that night the wandering god said that the name of this gourd was called Xuantian Shenhu, which could accommodate all things in the world. But he studied it many times in the dart game, and he couldn't find any other use except for being able to fill water and wine.

However, the wine in this gourd seems to be more mellow and has a refreshing effect. After tinkering for a long time, there was no result, but the people in the rickety carriage were drowsy. Just as he was half-asleep and half-awake, the carriage in front of him suddenly stopped slowly.

The senior brother who was driving the horse in front stopped the carriage with a sigh, and cursed with a babbling mouth: "Don't you bother, it's the fifth wave today." ”

It seems that something happened again, after entering the territory of this North Cang, although the dart is still shouting, it will not be long before a group of bandits blocking the road will come. Duty, Peng Yu also jumped out of the car and walked forward with a group of dart masters.

When I came to the front of the dart team, I found that there were twenty or thirty horsemen lined up on the official road in front of me, and everyone was born with a fierce god, carrying a long knife and carrying a bow and arrow, which was not a good match at first glance.

The leading man saw that all the dart masters had arrived, and said loudly: "The car has passed the road, and the horse has stepped on the grass." You are passing through our Habu steppe, and you have to leave some goods behind. ”

Although there are many dart masters, everything is still decided by the big dart master who leads the dart, and the others just follow up to help the momentum, but this time the dart is led by a middle-aged dart master with a surname.

I saw Master Xiang walking forward with a large barrel of wine in one hand, bending down to bow, and said kindly: "On this hot day, you have worked hard, and this barrel of bamboo leaf green wine from the south will relieve everyone's fatigue." ”

After handing over the barrel of wine, Fang Cai said: "Xiang Zhihe, the dart master of the Splendid Dart Bureau, has not asked you which way of brothers you are?"

The leading man was not polite, and after signaling to take the wine from the left and right, his face softened slightly: "The town in front of you is the Eagle Village, what kind of goods are you pulling in this car, and where are you going to send it?"

"Disrespectful and disrespectful, it turned out to be the brother of Shanying Village. The trumpet pulled some ordinary grain rice and sent it north to Longting. Xiang Dao Master bent down again.

"That road still has to be long, it's not that the brothers are unjust, it's really that the brothers in the village are almost close to their backbones, can you spare some to fill your stomachs." "Seeing that this dart master is full of pleasant faces, the leading man is not embarrassed to force it

"That's naturally what you want, you go and send bags of grain and rice to you. Xiang Dart head said busily.

The man's face was slightly unhappy and said, "But there are less, there are still a hundred mouths waiting in the village." ”

Xiang Dart Master respectfully handed over a dart document stamped with a red seal, and said in a harmonious voice: "Please forgive the leader, this is the goods of the Dragon Tiger Gate, and we are just giving our strength." ”

The leader took a look, his face became slightly frightened, and after handing over the official document to the dart master, he said a few kind words, and left with the gang of bandits.

I don't know how many times a day this kind of thing will be encountered, and everyone has become accustomed to it, and after returning to the dart cart, they urged the horse to move forward slowly.
