Chapter 256: Peace is blessing

Views:

In the county town of Huyue County, Qingzhou, there was a long queue at the gate of the North City Gate.

Because the search is too careful, the speed is very slow.

At the gate of the city, Teng Qingshan was being stared at by one of the guards.

Teng Qingshan let out a muffled snort, and exerted force with his arms, before he got the two boxes off the horse's back, and then "哐!" With that said, Teng Qingshan also opened the lid of one of the boxes, revealing the neatly arranged tea bricks inside.

"Huh?" The soldier frowned when he saw that it was tea bricks.

"It's full of tea bricks, it's very troublesome to get it out. It's even more troublesome to put it back in. Brother, help me, I'll just beg for a meal." Teng Qingshan said repeatedly.

Heibei took a look at the few people standing in the distance as supervisor, and then made up his mind.

"Shut up." Bingwei shouted at Teng Qingshan, "Quick, pour out both boxes for me!

"Pour it all out?" Teng Qingshan stared.

Heibei's face was cold: "The surface of your box is made of tea bricks. Who knows what's under your box. Quick, pour it all out. Otherwise, please go to prison for a few days."

"I pour, I pour."

Teng Qingshan picked up a box at a time, and turned the box upside down, but the mouth of the box was against the ground, and Teng Qingshan said, "Brother, I'm all down, don't waste time. , so many tea bricks, I'm afraid they will fall apart a lot." Teng Qingshan looked cautious, slowly shook the box, and poured out all the tea bricks.

"Bang!" The empty box was put aside.

The soldier immediately looked at the empty box and tea bricks, and shouted at the same time: "Hurry up the other one too."

"Okay, okay." Teng Qingshan opened the second box, there was a suitcase in the middle of the box, others didn't know it, but Teng Qingshan knew...the terrible thing was in this suitcase! Whether it's the reincarnation gun or the mountain axe, you must bring it with you.

Pick up the box.

Wow~~ A lot of tea bricks were dumped together with the suitcase, Teng Qingshan opened the suitcase very diligently, and there were only some clothes and other sundries in the suitcase.

Heibei took a look, and pushed the pile of tea bricks aside, fearing that there might be a mountain-opening ax and a reincarnation gun hidden underneath. As for the suitcase, he just fiddled with it with a weapon, but he didn't notice it.

"That woman, bring the big package on her back." Bingwei suddenly turned his head and stared at 'Mrs. Tan' and shouted.

Mrs. Tan, who was holding Xiao Tan He's hand, was surprised: "Me?"

"Everyone has to be checked." Bingwei shouted coldly, Madam Tan had no choice but to untie the package on her body.

"Brother, can I hold this tea brick?" Teng Qingshan asked with a bitter face.

Hei also understood the distress of the businessman in front of him. It is indeed troublesome to put so many tea bricks in, so he casually checked Mrs. Tan's package, and said at the same time: "Well, hurry up and pack all the tea bricks, pack it early and leave early , don’t get in the way at the city gate.”

After the inspection, the soldier went to inspect the others, only Teng Qingshan was left laboriously packing the tea bricks into the two boxes.

"Uncle Qin, I'll help you." Xiao Tan He also helped pretend, and Mrs. Tan even rushed over.

Eight hundred tea bricks, although Teng Qingshan fell carefully before, more than a dozen of them were broken, and the scattered tea bricks were actually still brewed for drinking. The three of them worked together, and within a short while, the two boxes were completely filled. Teng Qingshan put the suitcase into the big box again.

Put the two boxes on the red fire horse.

"Let's go." Teng Qingshan led Mrs. Tan and his mother towards the outside of the city gate, but no one stopped him at the moment.

From the inside of the city gate to the outside of the city gate, the distance is only more than ten zhang, but Teng Qingshan is very comfortable.

"It finally came out." Teng Qingshan had a smile on his face, "Just now, if I were found... I'm afraid I would have to take the suitcase, Xiao Tanhe and his mother, and escape quickly." With Teng Qingshan's strength It doesn't matter if Mrs. Tan, mother and son are with him.

With the strength of the guards at the gate of the city, Teng Qingshan could easily break out.

But if you really want to break through, the consequences will be very serious. First of all, the identity is exposed, and secondly, Mrs. Tan's mother and son may also suffer from unwarranted disasters.

"Old Zhou." Teng Qingshan had seen the caravan at the gate of the city, and shouted with a smile.

"Oh, brother Qin Wei." The burly old man in a thick leather robe and fur hat standing in front of the caravan even greeted warmly, "Xiaoyao Palace is going to arrest someone today, search the whole city, and even go out of the city. It's so troublesome. Especially us businessmen... Brother Qin Wei must have suffered too."

"Isn't it?" Teng Qingshan shook his head and said helplessly, "The two boxes of goods have to be poured out. When the final loading is done, you have to load it yourself."

"You're okay, just two boxes. Our Hu's firm's own goods are full of ten trucks. Those guards are determined and don't give us face. Dump out our entire ten trucks." The businessman The team leader, Mr. Zhou, seemed very angry, "So many guards, merchants, loading goods together, have been busy for a while."

Elder Zhou suddenly saw another businessman approaching the gate of the city: "Brother Qin Wei, I won't talk to you anymore, I'll go pick him up."

"Mr. Zhou, you are busy." Teng Qingshan led his people into the caravan.

This caravan is mainly hosted by Hu's firm, and there are many idle businessmen joining in. There are also many idle merchants with guards, plus paying commissions and then hiring guard teams, this will add up to make the entire caravan stronger and the number of guards will be large.

Nearly half an hour later, all the merchants had assembled here.

"Okay, everyone is here. The last city our caravan arrived at this time is Yuzhou King City—Yucheng. Now, let's go!" With the leader of the caravan shouting, the whole caravan set off in a mighty manner. .

This time the caravan consisted of nearly 300 merchants and more than 500 guards.

A caravan of eight hundred people! It was much bigger than the caravan that Teng Qingshan joined last time.

tick! tick!

Teng Qingshan's red fire horse strolled leisurely, because there were trucks, so the speed of the caravan could not be too fast.

In the morning, there was still unmelted snow on the official road, which also made the temperature very low.

"Xiaoyao Mountain!" Teng Qingshan looked at the mountains in front of him. Xiaoyao Mountain was several miles away from the north city gate of Huyue County, and he could clearly see it as soon as he left the city. The area of Xiaoyao Mountain is slightly smaller than that of Dayan Mountain, about twenty or thirty li in radius. However, because of the beautiful scenery, it was chosen by the founder of Xiaoyao Palace as the place to establish a sect.

Keep moving forward, half an hour later.

"Ma Jinxiao, as I said, it's ten miles away from the city gate." Teng Qingshan looked around carefully, "It's almost ten miles away since I left the city."

Mrs. Tan's mother and son, who were arranged by Teng Qingshan to sit in the truck, also paid attention to their surroundings.

moment-

Teng Qingshan locked his eyes on a farmer wearing a padded jacket and a ragged hat, squatting on the edge of the field beside the official road. Because he lowered his head, the ragged hat covered most of the farmer's face, and his eyes under the disheveled hair sometimes looked towards him. Glance here.

"Xiaohe, Mrs. Tan, come here." Teng Qingshan immediately rode his horse to the side of the official road.

Tan He and Mrs. Tan also knew that Ma Jinxiao would wait for them at ten miles away. They also saw this poor farmer, and they were also suspicious. Hearing Teng Qingshan's shout, they even ran over.

"Brother Qin Wei." The merchants nearby shouted, "What's the matter?"

"Small things, don't wait for me, I'll catch up in a while." Teng Qingshan shouted.

The merchants also saw that Teng Qingshan's horses were 'Red Fire Horses', they ran much faster than the caravan, so the caravan did not stop for Teng Qingshan alone, and continued to move forward.

call! The farmer who was squatting on the field stood up and walked over.

"Master!" Xiao Tan He immediately saw who was coming, and ran over excitedly. Ma Jinxiao also smiled and hugged Xiao Tan He.

Ma Jinxiao walked over with the child in his arms, and looked at Teng Qingshan with a smile: "Brother Qin Wei, thank you so much this time."

"I almost didn't recognize you dressed like this." Teng Qingshan sighed.

"Haha, I was originally a mountain dweller." Ma Jinxiao said with a smile, "I didn't encounter any trouble when I went out of the city this time, right?"

Teng Qingshan shook his head and said: "It's not a big problem, it's just that someone is being arrested in the city, there are guards in every street, and guards are also searching at the gate of the city." Xiao Tan He, who was hugged by Ma Jinxiao, also said: "Hmm , Uncle Qin’s cargo boxes were all dumped out by Bingwei.”

"It seems that the arrests are really strict." Ma Jinxiao couldn't help feeling a little worried, "Have you seen the portraits of the people that Xiaoyao Palace wants to arrest?" Ma Jinxiao stared at Teng Qingshan.

"I see." Teng Qingshan said with a smile, "Brother Ma, you left in a hurry last night, I thought you caused a big disaster and let Xiaoyao Palace chase you down. But looking at the profile picture, it doesn't look like you at all. It seems that I guessed wrong."

Ma Jinxiao showed a smile: "I did cause some trouble yesterday, so I left overnight. But... I don't want to mess with Xiaoyao Palace." Ma Jinxiao also found that his apprentice Xiao Tan He and Mrs. Tan didn't look surprised at all, obviously... That avatar certainly doesn't look like him.

Ma Jinxiao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Ma, what are you going to do in the future?" Teng Qingshan asked.

"Me?" Ma Jinxiao looked around at the surrounding mountains and fields, shook his head and smiled, "I'm going to take Xiaohe back to my hometown Majiazhuang! You can also teach me people from the Ma clan. If nothing happens, I will stay in the village for the rest of my life. It’s Majiazhuang. It’s been too long outside, and I don’t want to go far.”

"Brother Qin Wei, Majiazhuang is thirty miles north of here. Just ask around there and you'll find out. If you ever want to see me and see Xiaohe, just go there." Ma Jinxiao said with a smile.

"Uncle Qin, you must come in the future." Xiao Tan He also said repeatedly.

Teng Qingshan touched Xiao Tanhe's head with a smile, nodded and said: "Don't worry, wait until your uncle finishes his work. If there is a chance, he will definitely go."

"Brother Qin Wei, hurry up. I'll take Xiao He and Mrs. Tan back to Majiazhuang first." Ma Jinxiao bid farewell to Teng Qingshan, and took the mother and son along the country road.

Looking at the backs of Ma Jinxiao and the others, Teng Qingshan smiled.

"Stay in Majiazhuang for the rest of my life? An inborn strong man, who is less than forty years old, is willing to stay in his hometown, teach and protect his clansmen, and live a peaceful and safe life." The decision to touch, peace is a blessing! If I can live a peaceful life with my family, I will be satisfied.

"However, my path is different from Ma Jinxiao's!"

"Qinghu Island and I are destined to be destroyed." Teng Qingshan jumped on the red fire horse, "drive!"

The red fire horse immediately spread its four hooves and chased the caravan ahead.
