Chapter 19 Why is the young hero blocking the way?
When the sun was in the sky, they finally saw the coast, and behind them, a sailboat also appeared on the distant sea surface.
Seeing the ship, Wu Chong didn't even have time to rest. He put on his boots and carried flowers on his back. He plunged into the mountains and forests on the shore and ran wildly in the forest.
The mountains and forests at this time are different from the dense forests on the islands. There are many fewer shrubs inside. The more you go, the bigger the trees in the forest, and it feels like an ancient tree supports the sky.
Many withered vines hang on the trees, and a thick layer of fallen leaves are covered with on the ground. In this bleak season, fallen leaves continue to fall down.
And this also facilitates them to escape.
Wu Chong didn't know if those people had brought those two big dogs, so he didn't dare to stay and take risks. He used leaves to cover up his roads and hide them, which was useless under the dog's nose.
Unless he can find some kind of grass juice that can cover up his own scent.
There were many beasts in the forest, and the smell smelled a little fishy, but under Wu Chong's exhausted running, the beasts did not seem to have the intention to catch up.
They stopped until they encountered a mountain stream. They needed to replenish some water and clean their bodies. They were covered in salt.
Use water to fill your hunger, and you will not feel hungry for the time being when you drink it. However, you are full and hungry quickly, and you will have to relieve it continuously, which is a bit troublesome.
After resting for a quarter of an hour, the two of them set off again.
As the sun gradually sets westward, a small village comes into his eyes.
Although the small village is too small, it is not conducive to the hiding of their senior and sisters, a path next to the village has allowed him to find the direction to move forward.
As the trail continued to run wildly, for about twenty or thirty miles, I finally saw a small town where smoke had already risen.
However, there was a wall outside the small town, which made Wu Chong dare not enter directly.
Once they go in like this, it will be too eye-catching. At that time, the pursuers only need to ask a little question to find out their conduct.
Moreover, they have no way to guide them, and they will immediately reveal their feelings when they check.
At this moment, a caravan with more than a dozen carriages slowly came from a distance. Seeing this, Wu Chong put Hua Yaoyao down and put on his clothes again.
At this time, the two of them were already hungry and looked extremely embarrassed. If they hadn't replenished water in the mountains and forests and washed their bodies, they would have been even more embarrassed.
"Junior brother..."
"From now on, we will hide our names. I am not your junior brother, but your brother. Our surname is Xu, my name is Xu Ming, your name is Xu Yu, don't call it wrong."
"Why is the surname Xu?"
"Pick it whatever you want."
“…”
Wu Chong came to the official road with Hua Yaoyao on his back. When the caravan came over, Wu Chong stepped forward and stopped him.
On the flags inserted beside the caravan, the words "Four Seasons Trading Company" are written.
There was also a team of escorts guarding the side. Seeing those escorts riding horses and carrying swords, Wu Chong also hoped that he could have a horse so that he could save a lot of internal breathing.
From crossing the sea in the morning and running to the present, 10% of the internal energy has been consumed again.
This made Wu Chong feel very painful. If he could kill one or two pursuers on the road, it would not be a loss, but he would be exhausted like this, which would be a loss.
"Why did the young hero block the way?"
At this time, a female bodyguard rushed forward and asked politely. Seeing that Wu Chong was still carrying a girl, they naturally would not think that Wu Chong was here to rob.
"Who is the person in charge here? I want to do a deal with him."
When everyone heard this, they were stunned and then laughed. The female mattress smiled and said, "Young man, go, don't joke here, otherwise don't blame me for being blind."
A stuntman smiled and said, "Little guy, do you want to sell the girl behind you! She looks so beautiful, hahaha..."
This sentence attracted a lot of laughter, but it also attracted the female bodyguard's look back and glaring.
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing silk came out and asked, "I wonder what business the young hero wants to do with us? If it is really a population transaction, then forget it."
Wu Chong clasped his fists at the middle-aged man and said sadly: "I am Xu Ming, this is Xu Yu, the sister of the son. I am not hiding it. I went out to visit my sister and the sister of the son. When I met bandits on the way, all the servants were in trouble. All the luggage was robbed. Only with the help of the servants, I was fortunate to survive. I have Lu Yin and other things, all of them have been robbed. Now it is difficult to enter the city. I hope that the uncle can make a difference and help me. I am grateful for this thing."
Wu Chong said, handing over the night pearl wrapped in rag.
When they heard Wu Chong's words so desolate, they saw the two of them in a mess, and even heard the hungry gurgling sounds of them, everyone couldn't help but sigh.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he couldn't help but sigh, "The treacherous and slandered in the court, the current situation is difficult, the administration is difficult, the management is difficult, the mountains and fields are rampant, and local officials are ineffective in rectifying them. It's really...ah!"
After sighing for a while, the middle-aged man said again: "Xu Fei is the head of the caravan this time and is also one of the managers of the Four Seasons Commercial Bank in Qinghe County. Xu Xiaobian does not need any thank you gifts. When we go out and help each other, it is the basis for our business operations."
Wu Chong thought that businessmen were so traitorous, but he didn't expect that the businessmen in this world would have such conscience, so he couldn't help but feel grateful, "So, thank you uncle!"
In this way, Wu Chong and Hua Yaoyao got on the caravan's carriage and followed the caravan toward the small town.
At this time, the pursuers had just come out of the small village that Wu Chong and others had encountered before.
After chasing into the forest, they gradually lost Wu Chong's traces and searched for a long time before finding the right direction. When they saw that village behind, they thought the other party would hide in the small village.
As a result, I asked about the small village and searched quietly, but couldn't find the two little guys. In the end, I had to follow the path and chase them all the way.
When they chased after the small town, it was already dark and the city gate was closed, but this could not defeat them, after all, the city wall was really not high.
They found a place where no one was, jumped gently, and jumped over directly.
They looked towards the inn and restaurant that was still crowded at this time, thinking that the two little guys might go to stay in a hotel or even inquire all the way.
Coincidentally, they actually found out about it.
Then, they came to Siji Store and asked about the news about the two little guys.
The inquiries of these people made Xu Fei a little confused.
One of them said: "My son, the lady and the master were angry, and ran out of the house secretly, and did not bring anything to change clothes. I guess where I was hungry at this time! Please ask me to know where I have been waiting for them..."
When Xu Fei heard this, he felt a little strange, but he shook his head and said, "I don't want to tell you, but I really don't know where they went. After they followed me into the city, they said they wanted to visit relatives in the city, and it was hard for us to stop them. Since you have come here, you should know where your master's relatives live!"
One of the men in black beat their hands and sighed, "There are no relatives here? You must have been deceived by those two."
Xu Fei was speechless and found it a little funny. Unexpectedly, those two little guys were quite smart. It seemed that these servants were all quite stupid.
At this time, Wu Chong and Hua Yaoyao had already left the small town they had just entered by riding horses, eating dry food, drinking water, and staggeringly.
