Chapter 3: The Dart Team
On the other side of the hillside, unconsciously appeared a few flags, waving in the wind, and suddenly saw the four big characters of Tongfu Dart Bureau written on it, then the team of dozens of people should be the dart master and the executioner. The dart masters immediately straddled their horses with their swords, and the executioners were not treated so well, and they had to walk on their own feet.
The dart team is walking unhurriedly at the moment, and the flags on the dart cart are fluttering in the wind, and everything seems to be exceptionally quiet and peaceful. But is it really what it seems?
The dart team also seemed very quiet, no one made a sound, and there was not the slightest movement in the surrounding woods or weeds, it was really too quiet, surprisingly quiet, so quiet that people panicked.
The quieter the place, the more uneasy and panicked it is, and now it seems that there is no sound of birds at all, whether it is the hearts of the dart masters that have been affected by something, or this place is really a forbidden place, and even birds and animals dare not set foot in it. What the hell is this place, I'm afraid only those experienced old dart masters know.
The responsibility of the dart masters is great, they are ready at any time, there is no room for the slightest relaxation, the head of the dart team walks in the front of the team, and the dart masters are on both sides of the formation, it can be said that all sides have been taken care of, there is not even a little dead end, making people impeccable.
The eyes of the dart masters were as sharp as the eyes of eagles, scanning the surroundings. Look at the goods on this dart cart, there are really a lot of goods, there are more than a dozen large boxes. I don't know what gold, silver and jewelry are in the box, but these old dart masters with decades of dart experience are so focused and meticulous, more precisely, they are all nervous, and they have a spirit of 120,000 to protect these goods, it can be said that they are a little too serious.
You must know that such a long journey, such a boring work, if you don't say a word, it will really suffocate people, like us if we don't speak for a moment. That's certainly unbearable.
But work first, responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai, they also have no way, everyone is for work, in order to make money to support the family, the form has to be done.
If this dart misses, I think they can't afford to pay, before the dart they signed a contract with the employer, if the goods are lost, it is not as simple as compensation according to the original price, you have to compensate for the loss of several times the loss. If it is calculated in this way, not only will the dart game suffer heavy losses, but those of them who eat with the dart game will not have good results, and the family is still waiting for the rice to be cooked.
There is no motivation without pressure, and if they know the importance of betting on this dart, they will not dare to be careless.
Losing a dart is a small matter, if you lose your life, it is a big deal, so these dart masters they are all 120,000 points of spirit, ready for battle, they don't want this dart will be the last journey in their lives.
They all held their breath and pricked up their ears to listen to the movements in all directions, so many years of experience in darts had already made them clairvoyant and downwind ears, and if there was a wind in the grass or in the woods, they could not escape their eyes and ears.
But now there seemed to be no sound in the grass all around, not even the movement of a rabbit, and it was very strange, was it the noise of horses' hooves and the turning of the wheels that muffled the faint sounds?
Looking at the head of the dart, his expression is calm, peaceful, and steady, and he knows that nothing will happen. This made the stone hanging in everyone's hearts seem to fall again. Since the head of the dart is not worried, then what are they worried about, as long as they don't be careless, it's fine.
What they have to do now is to always keep a vigilant heart, to be ready for battle at any time, and to be ready to fight at any time, and as long as there is a stir, they can all join the battle and protect the dart, and this is the quality they should have.
When the dart team walked forward, we saw that behind the dart team were the grandfather and grandson, they were the most simple farmers dressed, grandfather and grandson, are they also the people in charge of the dart? But looking at their weak little body, they still need someone to protect them, so how can they protect the dart cart?
They are carrying a package on their bodies, they should be going to visit relatives and friends, maybe they are on the way with the dart, so they follow them for a ride, so that they can have a response, so that they will not act alone and be bullied by others.
You must know that this world is not peaceful, and this society always likes to bully the weak, follow the big army, and if you have a momentum, who dares to provoke you, the target of the bad guys is always those who are alone.
"Xiao Wang. The head of the dart suddenly spoke, he was going to arrange a task.
"Chief Dartman, what do you command? "A swayer came up.
"The team is going to pick up the pace, you go to the back and tell the grandfather and grandson, let them follow themselves, there is the Black Wind Ridge in front, it is the territory of the bandits, we must pass quickly. "The head of the dart said.
"Okay, I'll tell them. After Xiao Wang finished speaking, he wanted to turn back and go to the two people.
"Wait, you just stay behind, take care of them by the way, it's not easy for the elderly. "The head of the dart is kind and kind.
"Good. Xiao Wang took the order and left.
"Brothers, there is the Black Wind Ridge in front of us, we must pass quickly, otherwise there will be trouble, this is a big deal, there are too many people who are worried about it, all cheer me up, and the reputation of the Tongfu Dart Bureau must not fall here." ”
The chief dart leader shouted, firstly, to remind the brothers, and secondly, to strengthen their morale, the Black Wind Ridge in front of them will be the saddest level of their journey, of course, it is also the last level, and they will successfully complete the task after the Black Wind Ridge. But whether he could successfully pass through the head of the Black Wind Ridge dart was not counted in his heart, and as soon as the words fell, the head of the dart was the first to ride out on horseback.
"Pick up the pace, get through fast, hurry. One by one, the dart masters passed down the orders, and the team was noticeably faster, so the executioners could only run with the team.
Now it is especially important to have a good body, and now you should know why those watchmen are all strong and strong, because they all ran out of the hands of the trip, can the body be bad. And the little Wang quickly ran to the back of the team and saw the grandfather and grandson.
"Old man, the team is going to cross the Black Wind Ridge, it's a place for bandits, so we have to pass through the descent quickly, no, we're the head of the dart, let me inform you, you must keep up with the team, don't go away." Xiao Wang said enthusiastically.
"Grandpa, can you do it?" asked the boy, holding his grandfather.
"It's okay, grandpa can do it, it's not grandpa bragging, you may not be able to outrun grandpa now." The old man smiled and said, "That's the old man, I will stay with you and take care of you and your little brother." "Little King.
"How can this work, my old man's life is cheap, and it is not a pity to die, but the dart you bet on this time is too important, how can my old man delay you, the dart is a big deal, you go back to the dart team." My old man won't hold you back. The old man said persistently.
"Old man, this is what we always mean, don't shirk anymore, otherwise you will embarrass the younger generation. Xiao Wang said with a frown.
"Grandpa, the head of the dart is also a good intention, don't refuse anymore, anyway, we all follow the dart team, and no one drags anyone down. "That grandson is very reasonable.
"The old man is so decided, anyway, your legs and feet are sharp, and you don't want me to carry it, I will stay behind in addition to taking care of you, but also protect my dart car, maybe we always think this is what the dart head thought at the time. "Little King.
Hearing him say this, the old man didn't say anything more, it turned out that someone else had another arrangement, but don't think about all the good things on yourself, otherwise this is called self-inflicted affection.
"Your dart-headed heart is really delicate. The old man laughed.
"Of course, we have never missed a dart, which is why we have such a big business to do with him. Xiao Wang couldn't help but praise their total dart.
The dart cars behind them all drove away from them one by one, so shouldn't they also hurry up?
"The old man's dart cart is gone, let's catch up. Xiao Wang said, and then he also helped the young man to help the old man walk forward together.
