"You mean you have the guts to take on this job just because you can do it with a few strokes?"

The bonfire in the camp is flourishing, and from time to time the fat of the barbecue drips into the fire to make the bonfire burn more vigorously, the man with the sword is a little disdainful, in fact, he is not the only one who disdains, these two hundred outlaws who go this trip are at least eighty percent disdainful, among them, there are either those who are dissatisfied with the girl in red who is so fond of such a half-crippled young man, or there are those who look down on the combination of these two young people, after all, if there are any unpredictable dangers along the way, they are the ones who really rush to the front with knives, they absolutely do not believe that it will be such two young people, in fact, these two people are just dispensable in their eyes, they can't get used to seeing these two people mixing money in the team.

"Yes, I'll have a few hands. ”

"Ah Niu" didn't stand up, he just raised his head slightly and said this lightly.

How could the young fisherman not see the sarcasm between the man's words, he wanted to explain, he didn't want the two of them to make a fool of themselves in front of so many people, especially not to make a fool of the young lady who had just given them snacks, he wanted to say that my brother's knife breaths would cost dozens of lives, but he still didn't say it after all, because the rhythm had been disrupted by the lady in red.

She was relieving them, something that should have been something to be happy about, but the young fisherman couldn't be happy, because he always felt as if the two of them had really put in a useless name, but he knew that he couldn't explain it, because the young man beside him said something lightly.

"Just be yourself, what others think is someone else's business, usually the higher the jumper, the faster people die. ”

That night they did not crowd the tent, and slept on the grass outside, but fortunately, God was still happy, and it did not rain, and if it did not rain, it could be regarded as a comfortable sleep.

The night was uneventful.

On the second day, they were still at the rear, but they didn't expect that the old man who had chosen the camp with the fat boss yesterday would also slowly fall to the rear, and he walked with the two of them.

This old man looks about the age of the sixtieth birthday, dressed in coarse linen clothes, unremarkable, but the sword box he is carrying behind him is quite noticeable, he has many scars on his body, and he has a mouthful of big yellow teeth when he speaks, and it can't be said to be a foul smell, because he likes to drink very much, and he walks a mile to drink a big sip of wine, so that the wine bottle has been empty two or three along the way, but fortunately, the fat boss is polite to him, and every time he drinks a pot, he will refill it.

"The first time the two little brothers have eaten this bowl of rice?"

The old man with yellow teeth opened the conversation first, his hair was black and white, there was a lot of unwiped wine on a small goatee, and there was a lot of crystal clear snot on the beard under his nose.

"Eat this bowl of rice?"

The young fisherman was surprised for a moment and understood, and he nodded and then shook his head, for he suddenly realized that he could not be underestimated by others, even an old man.

"How could it be the first time? Old man, I'll tell you the truth, I've killed people. ”

The fisherman pointed to the Chu knife behind him, all of which were in full view of the yellow-toothed old man, in fact, he didn't ask the young fisherman, what he wanted to ask most was this handsome young man, this young man who almost didn't say a word along the way and always had empty eyes.

"And what about this little brother? Is it the first time to eat this bowl of rice?"

"Are you asking me?"

"Ah Niu" came back to his senses from his trance, and he said softly.

"If it were me, it would be the first time I've eaten this bowl of rice. ”

The old man with yellow teeth was not angry at this confused answer, he smiled.

"I've noticed you since the first day you joined this team, and I don't think you're ordinary people. ”

"Old man, you really have a vision, unlike other people who look down on people. The young fisherman hurriedly came up, and was not treated well on the road, and finally met a person who "knew the goods", how could he not say a few words?

"Hehe, two little brothers, if this deal is done, I must treat you to a few pots. ”

"Is it from the flask you've drunk? ”

"Ah Niu" seemed to laugh and not laugh at the words that made the old man with yellow teeth blush immediately, his old man was willing to surrender his identity to take the initiative to talk to the two young people It was already a very face-saving thing, how could he stand the cynicism?

The old man with yellow teeth snorted coldly and left angrily, the young fisherman was stunned, but "Ah Niu" returned to his normal empty state on weekdays, he didn't seem to like talking to people he didn't know, he didn't remember what it was like before, but he knew that he didn't like talking to people other than fishermen very much now.

At noon, when they were still without food, the woman in red asked the two girls to bring them snacks and water, but when the young fisherman had feasted on them, she regretted that she had rather not eat them.

Because their two horses were let go, and the initiator was not far away at this time looking like he was watching a good show.

"It doesn't taste very good. ”

"Ah Niu" smiled faintly, and at this time, the fat boss had already come over with a big belly.

"Two horses, twenty taels of silver, you only have ten taels of silver left for this trip, and I will not prepare any more horses for you. ”

"Do you want us to walk......?"

The young fisherman wanted to argue with reason, but was stopped by "Ah Niu".

"No problem, we just walk, and we only need to give half of the silver. ”

The fat boss left, and the two hundred outlaws pointed fingers, and they all knew who did it, and they wouldn't say it, because this kind of result was exactly what they liked to see.

The caravan set off again, and the two followed the rear on foot, "Ah Niu" walked unhurriedly, but always kept a short distance from the carriage procession, and the young fisherman ran away, tired and out of breath before he could barely keep up with the footsteps of "Ah Niu".

"You should have explained to the fat man that maybe we could get two more horses. ”

"No, once it is explained, let alone two horses, you will not even get the other twenty taels of silver. ”

Hurrying during the day, looking for a place to rest at night, this day is the second day, the two pairs of shoes have been worn out, they soak their feet next to the stream, the maid wants to bring food for the third time, but this time before coming over was stopped by the fat boss.

"What they haven't eaten is their business, you don't have to worry about it, come out and run the rivers and lakes, if you don't even have this ability, how can people believe it?"

The girl in red got out of the carriage and argued with her father, and she couldn't stand the strength of her fat father, so she could only give up.

The young fisherman, who had no horses, no food, and even shoes to wear, was depressed, but "Ah Niu" felt as if nothing had happened.

"Thank you for your hard work, I haven't left the team for so long during the day, but I underestimate you. ”

Yesterday, the man with the sword, Shi Shiran, walked over, he seemed to be the one with a face among the two hundred, because when he did something, others rarely objected, including some things that even the fat boss turned a blind eye, such as sometimes slapping the maid on his ass while the maid was not paying attention, or following the maid Xiaojie in the dead of night to listen to the boo, but he knew that there were some things that his boss could tolerate, but things involving the young lady would never be easily let go.

"Where, where, you tried your best to drive us away, we didn't make it, wouldn't it be harder for you?"

"Ah Niu" said with a smile, the man's face was not good-looking, but he still didn't make a move in this place in the end.

"After tonight, if you can stay in this team tomorrow, I'll take your last name. ”

He left with his hands in his hands, and with his hands in extreme high spirits, he went to find the fat boss.

"I think the two people you found are completely useless, having them will only become a burden to us, it's better to do this, I earned their twenty taels of silver, the work that should belong to them, I will do it?" ”

After just a few casual words, the fat boss immediately nodded.

"Okay, since you've said everything in the wind, let's drive the two of them away. ”

"No, you can't drive them away, there are no people in this barren mountain and wilderness, what should we do if something happens? Besides, the two of them have never done anything to be sorry for us. ”

The girl in red poked her head out of the carriage, she didn't know much about the Fengli Sword, but she knew that in this case, the two of them separated from the big team was equivalent to death, not to mention that the young man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes only had one arm that could move.

"Miss, this is business, not a favor, I'm afraid even Miss you can see that these two boys are eating and drinking in our team, it's just that Miss is kind-hearted and can't bear to let them go, in fact, whether they go or not, the result will not be much better, because from the beginning of them to take this job, they are destined to not end well, because they are too weak. ”

The red-clothed girl who argued with the sword in the wind was speechless.

"Even if you have to go, you should give them a little money. ”

"That's the matter of Miss. ”

The fat boss finally gave the two a few taels of silver.

"Somebody told you to go, and that guy was very good, and he said he could do what the two of you combined. ”

The fat boss said this to the young fisherman, because he thought that the young fisherman should be the eldest of the two.

"I'm sorry, after tonight, you won't follow us anymore, where you came from, where you came from. ”

He said this and left.

But when the caravan departed early the next morning, the two followed unhurriedly, which made the boss a little unhappy.

"The money has already been given to you, didn't you say that you should not come with me?"

"The silver is indeed given, but we are not concerned, because the place we are going to is exactly the same road as you, not to mention that it is our own silver that is spent, and no one knows who will spend it in the end. ”

"I don't talk nonsense with you, you can follow as much as you want, just don't come within a mile radius of us. ”

The fat boss left, and after leaving, Feng Lijian said a few words to him, and the former deliberately fell to the back.

"What you said really makes sense, you can't accept it. ”

The fisherman sighed.

"Sure enough, the money he spends can be counted as his own silver. ”

"I told you a long time ago to let you leave quickly, but I didn't expect you to be so disobedient and send yourself to death. ”

The sword sneered in the wind on horseback, and at this time, the carriage team had disappeared around the mountain pass, and there was no one around, and the spring breeze was blowing, which was the best time to kill people and sell goods.

"Why do you want to kill us? We should have never seen it, we have no grudges in the past, no hatred in the near future, and at most we have only met a few times. ”

"Ah Niu" couldn't help frowning.

"It's not because other girls give us a few snacks that you want to kill me, then your sword is too stingy. ”

"You're right, it's because you let Miss pay attention to it frequently that I want to kill you, I've been reminded many times openly and secretly, but you just don't listen, it's no wonder to me, even if you regret it now, it's too late, because you have silver in your arms, and where there is silver, there is a sword in the wind. ”

"We don't have much silver in our arms, not as much as this caravan, you should fight the caravan's idea. ”

"That's not what you're worried about, now, are you ready to hit the road?"

"I don't think that's what you should be worried about right now, but if you do, you might as well get off your horse and listen to the sound of the earth shaking. ”

"Ah Niu" words, the sword in the wind looked pale, his eyes narrowed slightly, he still didn't take out the sword in the end, he rode his horse and turned around and chased after the caravan, because the sound of horses' hooves in this kind of battle is not to mention hundreds of people, the barren mountains and mountains will not be caravans, and the caravan horses will not gallop like this.

It's a horse thief.

"What are we going to do? Wait here or not?"

The fisherman couldn't help asking, in fact, he was also afraid of horse thieves who killed people without blinking, and he had heard many horse thieves in the past who killed people and carried their heads on their heads to celebrate, but at least he was not afraid now, because there was a "Ah Niu" next to him. ”

"Don't worry, wait, it's a bit complicated now. ”

"When will that be?"

"When the people on both sides are almost dead. ”
