The Nine Cauldrons

Chapter 114: travel far

Views:

The wind in the morning is very cool.

Teng Qingshan was leading more than 20 people under his command to march on the road in the barracks, beside Zhuge Yun, Zhuge Qing and Qing Yu were seeing him off.

"Brother, it's nearly two thousand miles from here to Chu County, and the road is dangerous, so you have to be careful!" Qing Yu stood beside Teng Qingshan, eyes full of reluctance.

Teng Qingshan smiled and patted Qingyu's head: "Xiaoyu, are you worried about your brother?"

"My brother is the strongest." Qing Yu immediately raised her chin and said confidently.

Teng Qingshan was willing to make a living in his heart. As for his younger sister Xiao Yu, not long ago, Qing Yu had joined Gui Yuanzong. I have to admit that Qing Yu's talent is pretty good, after only seven days of practicing the inner strength cheats, the inner strength is generated in the body, although it can't be compared with some geniuses who can develop inner strength in one day, but after all, Qingyu is fourteen years old.

"Xiaoyun, Miss Qingqing, I will trouble you to take care of my sister when I go out this time." Teng Qingshan turned to look at the two of them.

"It goes without saying, but if you are outside, don't be careless, Xuyang County is the most chaotic county." Zhuge Yun also entrusted.

While speaking, Teng Qingshan and his group had arrived at the north gate of the Heijia army barracks.

Through the north gate, Teng Qingshan has already seen a carload of goods outside the north gate, at first glance there are quite a lot, and there are eight carts just from what he saw.

"Xiao Yu, you guys don't give it away." Teng Qingshan asked.

"Yeah." Qing Yu also looked at Teng Qinghu, "Cousin, listen to my brother more on the way! Don't cause trouble."

"Qingshan is the capital, of course I have to listen." Teng Qinghu chuckled.

Zhuge Qing, who had been silent by the side, couldn't help saying: "Brother Qingshan, be careful on the road!"

Teng Qingshan took a look, smiled and nodded.

Seeing this, Teng Qinghu grinned and turned his head to look outside the door.

"Go, let's go out!" Teng Qingshan ordered.

The two centurions under his command and the sergeants of the two teams all led their horses out of the gate. After walking out, Teng Qingshan could see clearly that there were ten trucks parked here with goods, and two spacious carriages, and there were nearly a hundred people gathered around. Most of them wear armor like snake scales.

"Haha, this should be Teng Qingshan, Teng Du is in command!" A grizzled old man stepped forward to greet him.

Teng Qingshan nodded, glanced at the nearly a hundred guards, and said with a smile: "Your Zhu family is the most wealthy in the world, with so many guards, it seems that the brothers under my command will be very relaxed on the road."

"This is also some of my master's manpower, which can't compare to the Black Armored Army!" The old man laughed, "Old Wu Tan! My master is over there!"

Teng Qingshan had already seen a burly man not far away, followed by two guards.

"Teng Dutong!" The burly man cupped his hands and laughed, "I just came to Jiangning County for a few days, and I heard about Teng Dutong's name! The youngest and most promising Dutong in the Black Armored Army! I was still thinking , I’m afraid it will be difficult to meet Teng Dutong. Unexpectedly, Uncle Zhuge sent Teng Dutong to help me secure the goods this time! It also allowed me to meet Teng Dutong in advance! My heart It’s also overjoyed!”

"This is Zhu Jiuye, right?" Teng Qingshan knew the other party's identity.

Zhu Chongshi, the ninth son of the rich god of wealth 'Zhu Tong'.

"What do you call Jiu Ye? Call me old out of thin air, Teng Dutong thinks highly of me, just call me brother." Zhu Chongshi said with a smile.

Teng Qingshan secretly praised in his heart, that God of Wealth 'Zhu Tong' also has the means to educate his son, Zhu Chongshi's talking and laughing makes people feel like a spring breeze in Mugu, and feels at ease. Teng Qingshan hated to meet the kind of playboys who think they are superior and call others around.

During the conversation between Teng Qingshan and Zhu Chongshi, they became like brothers.

Soon, the convoy moved forward.

After leaving the city gate, they walked on the official road at a slightly faster speed.

"Dad, I want to ride a horse!"

Not long after the journey, a little boy's head popped out of the window of the carriage, and shouted at Zhu Chongshi who was riding a horse.

"You haven't even learned how to ride a horse? Stay in the car with your mother." Zhu Chongshi shouted.

The little boy stuck out his tongue, and retreated into the car.

"Brother Zhu is dragging his family with him this time?" Teng Qingshan was a little surprised, and asked Zhu Chongshi who was walking with him, "It's inevitable to rush to Chu County from here, the danger along the way is inevitable, why don't you let your sister-in-law and children stay at home."

"Brother Qingshan, you don't know something." Zhu Chongshi smiled, "I'm bringing my family with me this time, and I'm coming back from overseas. It's hard to leave my family overseas. Of course, I have to come back together."

"Overseas?" Teng Qingshan was a little surprised.

Zhu Chongshi nodded, but did not elaborate.

Teng Qingshan knew that the other party had a secret, so he changed the subject and asked curiously: "Brother Zhu, I haven't been out to sea yet, what is there in the East China Sea?"

"This East China Sea is boundless." Zhu Chongshi sighed, "If you haven't been out in the sea, you will never know how terrible the sea is. In the sea, there will be many islands, some islands are empty, and some islands are empty. There are a large number of people. Some are barbaric and uncivilized, and of course there are many of us Kyushu people who lived in the past."

Teng Qingshan nodded silently.

After coming to Guiyuanzong for so long, Teng Qingshan also has some understanding of the geography of this world.

Kyushu is vast and vast, with hundreds of millions of people.

And in the west of Kyushu, it is a desert land, occasionally there are oases, and there are many small countries in the Western Regions.

In the north, there is a vast grassland, and further north, there is the North Sea.

In the east, that is the vastest East China Sea.

In the south of Kyushu, it is called "Southern Wilderness", "Southern Wilderness" and "Wild Wilderness". There are so many poisonous snakes and beasts in the boundless Southern Wilderness, it can be said that it is a forbidden area for human beings! Because there are too many endless dangers there, even some terrifying monsters. But according to the legend... Many warriors pursued martial arts and went to the Southern Wilderness to practice penance. In the Southern Wilderness, there are also many secret books and treasures left behind by dead warriors.

but…

The most prosperous and richest, the most masters, and the most sects are still the land of Kyushu!

Those small overseas islands and small countries in the Western Regions cannot compare with the masters on the land of Kyushu.

"People living on overseas islands live in poverty." Zhu Chongshi lamented, "I have been drifting on overseas islands for several years, and I never want to go to sea again for the rest of my life."

"Brother Zhu, did you drift overseas for business?" Teng Qingshan asked.

"Business is one reason, and another reason is that I have wanted to travel all over the world since I was a child." Zhu Chongshi sighed, "I visited the desert countries in the Western Regions before I was 20 years old. The wilderness is close to our Yangzhou. South of Yangzhou! In fact, it’s nothing, just various hills and hills, a large number of big trees that don’t know how many years have grown, and various poisonous snakes, poisonous insects and beasts. I stayed in the outermost part of the wilderness for more than a month. The warriors communicated with each other, and they didn't go in again."

Zhu Chongshi looked around, laughed and said, "After wandering around for so long, our land of Kyushu is still the most fertile."

Teng Qingshan has to admit it!

He had expected too well before, and the speed of the team was slower than he had imagined! Although those trucks were pulled by horses, the official roads were all dirt roads. There are too many small pits, stones, clods, etc. The forward speed of this truck is naturally very slow.

It is estimated that if a person trots, he can catch up with the speed of the truck.

One day, it will probably advance about one hundred and twenty miles.

After a difficult journey, Teng Qingshan and the others crossed the boundaries of two counties in a row. On the eleventh day of their journey, Teng Qingshan and the others finally entered the boundary of Xuyang County.

Hush!

The weather was fine before, but suddenly there was a strong wind, dark clouds, thunder roaring, followed by heavy rain! The pouring rain made the convoy miserable.

"It's raining heavily, it would be nice to have a place to hide from the rain." Zhu Chongshi smiled wryly.

When it rained, the dirt road became muddy, and of course the convoy moved slower, and it was uncomfortable to be hit by the torrential rain.

"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"...

Those black-armored sergeants in heavy armor, when the raindrops hit them, they made a vibration and impact sound.

"Qingshan." Teng Qinghu rode beside him, "Haha, I asked you to wear heavy armor. If you don't wear it, look, you're getting wet now." Teng Qinghu and others were wearing heavy armor, with their faces and hands exposed Yes, there is a neck guard inside the neck, which just completely blocks the rainwater and prevents them from getting wet.

Teng Qingshan smiled.

The black armored soldiers included Teng Qingshan, a total of 23 people. The others were all wearing a full set of heavy armor according to the order. Only Teng Qingshan only wore inner armor, leg guards, arm guards, and nothing else. For Teng Qingshan... this cold iron heavy armor is probably not as good as his own body in terms of defensive power alone!

Moreover, if you wear a full set of heavy armor, it will affect flexibility and many other aspects.

"Brother Zhu, there is nothing to hide from the rain around, so bear with it, the summer rainstorm will come and go quickly! But... you also let your people be vigilant. Now we enter the territory of Xuyang County, Xu County is very There are a lot of horse thieves in a chaotic county, and my reputation as the Black Armored Army may not deter the crazy horse thieves in Xuyang County!"

"En." Zhu Chongshi also nodded solemnly.

The Black Armored Army can march sideways in Jiangning County.

But in other counties, it depends on how many people from your black armor army come. If there are few people, they don't care about killing you together, as long as their hands and feet are clean and they don't leave any clues.

Teng Qingshan and the others guessed well, not long after their convoy entered the territory of Xuyang County, their news was learned by a group of powerful horse thieves in Xuyang County.

"Get out of the way, everyone out of the way!"

While yelling and cursing, a thin one-eyed man was running towards a house not far away.

"Fourth master!" The two men at the gate of the house immediately greeted with a smile.

"Big head, big head!" The thin one-eyed man opened the door and shouted loudly, "There is a fat sheep, a big fat sheep!"

"What are you shouting about!" shouted loudly.

A bald man with his upper body naked came out of the main room. He had two hideous scars on his chest. At this moment, he looked at the thin one-eyed man with dissatisfaction: "Xiao Si, you said there is a fat sheep? For ordinary things, let the brothers Let's do it."

"Big Master! This time it's definitely a big deal! You have to make a decision!" The thin one-eyed man's eyes lit up, "The caravan even hired people from the Black Armored Army of Gui Yuanzong to protect the goods !"

"Oh?" The bald man's eyes lit up, "The Black Armored Army? How many people?"
