Seeing her retreating, the person opposite frowned and asked tentatively in Hun dialect: "But are you here to get something?"
Guo Da was not in the other party's field of vision. When he heard that there was someone on the other side, he was so scared that his calves were trembling!
Beidou and Lei Shuo were both smart and immediately held their breath and said nothing.
Wen Qingzhu responded in a rough voice, still in Hun dialect: "Yes, I brought gold."
The person on the other side seemed to be relieved, and this time he said in Chinese: "Who else is there?"
"A guard and a guide." After Wen Qingzhu said this, he turned to look at Lei Shuo and said, "There is also a young lady from the capital!"
"Miss Jingcheng?!" The person opposite became wary again.
Wen Qingzhu nodded and stretched out his hand for Beidou to hand the baggage to her.
After taking it over, she opened the bag and revealed the gold and silver inside. The person opposite immediately showed a greedy look.
Wen Qingzhu covered the bundle and asked him again: "Where are the things?"
The person opposite stared at him: "What about you? Who are you?"
Wen Qingzhu's heart changed and he immediately made nonsense: "Boss Yu's nephew."
The person opposite frowned but showed no hostility: "Boss Yu, why don't you come in person?"
"He... was found killed and died on the way here. I came here in his place!" Wen Qingzhu felt that his words were full of flaws, but the person opposite him was completely relieved.
He pointed to the side and explained: "There are too many things this time. I only brought one piece here to give it to you! Give me all the gold!"
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "I will give you as much gold as you give me!"
"Did you agree with me last time? I want to show you the goods! You have to pay a deposit!" The person opposite started to get angry again.
Wen Qingzhu slowly felt relieved and probably figured out the other party's tactics.
He is most likely a Huns. He is very familiar with the Central Plains dialect, but he is not very clear about the routines in it.
She insisted: "I have done business with you Huns so many times, how many times have you kept your word? You may have kept your word before, but the gold, silver and jewelry I brought this time are very valuable! I am not a big businessman either. My uncle just died, so I have to keep his property!"
"Haha!" The other person sneered, "I think you are just eyeing your uncle's property!"
Wen Qingzhu arched his eyebrows but said nothing.
The person opposite just watched quietly. The two of them stood for a while, but in the end he couldn't hold on.
He walked to the side, brought a rough cardboard box over, and pushed it between the stones.
Wen Qingzhu took out two pieces of gold from the bag, thought about it, and put another piece back!
The man opposite almost jumped up when he saw it: "This is the best product of mine! How could you only take a piece of gold!"
Wen Qingzhu walked over expressionlessly and threw the gold to him: "Sorry! I have another way."
The man's eyes twitched and he even forgot to pick the gold.
He asked Wen Qingzhu firmly: "Who did you find again? Who can be more willing to give this thing than our sixth prince!"
Wen Qingzhu pursed his lips, and he actually got the news out!
She thought of the fourth prince that Wang Tu wanted to support, and said with a faint smile: "It's not anyone, just the fourth prince, and there is King Zuo Xian beside him!"
"Fourth Prince?" The man opposite looked strange.
Wen Qingzhu felt as if she had said the wrong thing, but she still nodded: "That's right! The Fourth Prince! He gave me not only your things, but also other things. I naturally chose to cooperate with him first."
The person on the other side seemed unsure about whether it was true or not, and seemed to be worried about something. Finally, he said: "Let's do this. I will take you to see the Sixth Prince! He will discuss it with you personally!"
"No need!" Wen Qingzhu refused directly.
The person opposite had no choice but to agree on the next cooperation time: "Let's do this. Come back in seven days and we will give you the amount agreed last time. If the fourth prince is willing to give it, our sixth prince is also willing! The fourth prince gave it to you What do you have, how many do you have?”
This put Wen Qingzhu in a dilemma, she didn't even know what it was.
But she had many ways to deal with it: "No need! The most important thing for a merchant is credibility! I promised the fourth prince, and I will naturally deliver it first! You guys, give me the goods you should give me! In addition, the price will be halved!"
"Don't go too far!" The man opposite suddenly became irritable.
Wen Qingzhu replied calmly: "Businessmen pursue profits. You have learned Zhongyuan dialect and must have read books. Do you know what this sentence means?"
The person on the other side was silent for a moment: "I told you to take you to see the Sixth Prince! It was you who refused!"
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "What if you come back and kill us? After all, I have a batch of gold and silver in my hands!"
She took the bundle and shook it, making the person opposite her tremble with anger.
After a moment of silence, the man opposite took out another letter from his pocket and threw it over: "Take this! When you go back, pick up someone at the Border Inn! Follow the rules!"
Wen Qingzhu didn't move, so the man had no choice but to explain: "Don't worry, he's still the same person."
After hesitating for a long time, Wen Qingzhu nodded.
Let Beidou go over and get the wooden box and the letter.
The man opposite did not hesitate to retreat. Wen Qingzhu looked around and decided to retreat temporarily.
But not far away, Beidou suddenly stopped and looked back.
Wen Qingzhu motioned for him to keep going and wait until he left here.
Seeing that they were about to leave the pile of rocks, a person suddenly jumped out from behind and rushed directly towards Beidou.
The three people walking in front all turned around and saw the man just now holding a knife and slashing directly at Beidou!
The speed is extremely fast, but Beidou is even faster!
It was fast enough for people to see the afterimage, and with a scream, Beidou directly subdued the man with his backhand.
Wen Qingzhu then walked over and pulled off his mask and hat. Sure enough, he was a Huns.
"What's your name?" Wen Qingzhu asked calmly.
The man turned blue with anger and asked unwillingly: "I am the first-class warrior of the Xiongnu! How can your people be more powerful than me!"
Wen Qingzhu smiled lightly: "There is a way out there! It seems that you are very attached to this gold!"
The man snorted coldly and looked away.
Wen Qingzhu signaled Beidou to knock him out directly. She glanced at the mountain road in front of her that was blocked by rocks. It was not advisable to stay here for a long time.
They immediately sped off, waited until dark, passed through the Sky Star Grass Valley, and returned to the mountain forest.
After finding the previous cave, for safety's sake, Wen Qingzhu didn't light a fire and took out the night pearl.
When Wen Qingzhu woke up, before Wen Qingzhu could speak, he stared at the luminous pearl in her hand: "Why do you have such a luminous pearl!"
"What? Where have you seen him before?" Wen Qingzhu looked at him intently.
The man suddenly stopped talking and was just silent.
Seeing him like this, Wen Qingzhu decided to use Ecstasy directly.
But as soon as he took out the bottle, the man's face turned pale and he looked at Wen Qingzhu intently: "Who are you? Why are you so confused!"
"Do you know this thing?" Wen Qingzhu was a little surprised. Few people in Qi knew about this thing.
It was originally passed down from the Witch Clan and was very effective in interrogating people.
Wen Qingzhu made some improvements so that it can last longer without killing anyone.
"Jiang Yuancheng! You belong to Jiang Yuancheng!" The man suddenly began to struggle, but Beidou held him tightly, making it impossible for him to move at all.
Wen Qingzhu didn't want to hide it now: "I am not from Jiang Yuancheng, but from Fu Lie."
"Fu Lie!" This man's expression was filled with fear, as if he had seen the god of plague.
Seeing him like this, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but ask: "By the way! Fu Lie should still be among your Huns. Seeing as you met him like this, is it okay?"
The man suddenly stopped struggling and looked frustrated.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Wen Qingzhu asked Beidou to drink the magic powder for him.
The man struggled for a moment, and Wen Qingzhu asked all the questions: "Who are you? Whose do you want the gold for? How long have you been trading with Boss Yu and the others? What are the things that are being traded?"
At this moment, a dart suddenly appeared at the entrance of the cave.
Directly thrust into the Hun's throat, Beidou let go without hesitation and chased to the entrance of the cave, but saw no one.
Wen Qingzhu's face was gloomy. Someone was approaching, but she didn't notice it!
She was about to stand up when she suddenly found that Guo Da was motionless.
She immediately checked and found that Guo Da's wound turned black. The wooden box he was holding had opened a small gap at some point!
"This thing is poisonous!" Wen Qingzhu thought about it and suddenly pulled Lei Shuo back.
After retreating to the entrance of the cave, Beidou pointed to a tree not far away.
Wen Qingzhu looked intently and saw that the man hadn't left yet!
"Chase!" Wen Qingzhu gave the order without hesitation.
Beidou disappeared in front of his eyes in an instant. Wen Qingzhu took out the antidote pill and gave one to each of them.
Wen Qingzhu went over to close the wooden box and looked at the Huns again. He was fine.
But she was thankful for a moment, and the man died immediately.
Wen Qingzhu was filled with regret. He was only worried that the person outside had not left, but that he was not dead!
But now was not the time to regret, Wen Qingzhu quickly searched the Huns.
A piece of gold and some broken silver were found on him, as well as an iron token and a map.
After confirming that he was dead, Wen Qingzhu turned to look at the box.
Lei Shuo looked worriedly at the entrance of the cave: "Is there anyone else?"
Wen Qingzhu thought about the situation just now, shook his head and said: "Probably not! I suspect that person is the little king of the previous team!"
"Then why didn't he do anything to us? And this Guo Da, how did he get poisoned?" Lei Shuo was shocked and scared now.
However, she still protected Wen Qingzhu with her sword because she had martial arts skills but Wen Qingzhu did not.
While checking Guo Da's situation, Wen Qingzhu replied to her: "I think that Xiao Wang may not be an ordinary person. Are you in a hurry? He suddenly asked everyone in the caravan about their children's families. This Guo Da is the local among them. As a person, you have a family and children, so you haven’t made any big mistakes!
Later, that person could clearly kill Guo Da, but he didn't! Do you think that with this person's skill, he can approach quietly and kill this Huns, but he is not capable of killing Guo Da? "
"He...he let Guo Da go on purpose!" Lei Shuo then remembered that the man injured Guo Da, but when they found him, they were by the stream.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "That's right!"
At the same time, I picked up the silver needle and analyzed the toxicity of the medicine, and finally found that it was a chronic poison!
In other words, the poison in Guo Da may not come from this box.
Wen Qingzhu looked at the wooden box and wondered, what is inside
Just when she was hesitating whether to open it, Beidou came back and told her with gestures: I hurt that man and he jumped off the cliff!
