Chapter 471 The hour has come and the order has not been heard
As the escorting officer, he immediately rode swaggeringly on a tall horse, led the rest of the team, and used it as a bait to contain the ambushing bandits, pretending to advance.
Privately, remind everyone in the team to hold their weapons secretly.
In case of sudden life-threatening danger.
The prisoners who were selected from the exile team to form a new team because of their physical fitness nervously checked the protective clothing they were wearing. Those who had received weapons because of their good performance in the team in the past were even more nervous. It is to hold the self-defense object tightly in the hand, with eyes and ears listening in all directions.
Responsible for escorting the baggage to discharge and exile, walking in the middle of the team, escorted by soldiers with good fist and kick skills.
On both sides of the mountain road, the forest is deep and vast. In the distance, there seems to be an unknown roar echoing in the distance. From time to time, everyone is startled to cry out in cold sweat, and they are extremely alert.
Xiong Jiushan frowned and glanced from left to right, always paying attention to the unusual changes around him.
The quieter it looks, the more nervous it is.
The strong wind blew, the trees rustled, and the bushes seemed to rustle.
Danger seemed to be approaching quietly, and Xiong Jiushan's intuition made him feel that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time.
"Pass me the password! Move all the way and don't stay where you are!"
"Yes! Sir!"
Pass the password one by one and remove the prisoners in front. The others looked around with weapons, and the team behind them followed suit one by one. Regardless of whether they were traveling by car, horse, or people, they moved quickly, as if they were planning to escape quickly.
The stronger the wind, the louder and denser the rustling sounds around.
The Min family's caravan followed the group, and the guard who escorted the goods was close to the family's truck, carefully following the large army.
Guanshi Min is currently holding the black weapon he exchanged from Xiong Jiushan in his hand. Even though he doesn’t have much boxing skills, he is holding the weapon of the Xian family that is said to be a reward from the gods of the Xie family, and he feels happy in his heart. It was as if I had been blessed by some kind of mysterious god, and I felt much more at ease.
Not to mention this thing, Gouin Wu Liang’s eyes lit up as soon as he got it!
Min Zhong selfishly believed that this weapon could definitely save his life.
There are many people in the team who have the same idea as him.
Always alert to the arrival of danger, everyone's spirits are tense and unable to relax.
The unusual noises that echoed in the depths of the mountain forest from time to time also tortured his body, which was already exhausted from the rush. Xiong Jiushan quickly saw the group of robbers who were hiding nearby and following closely but never pounced. The number of bandits.
They are like wild wolves, waiting for an opportunity.
It is impossible for a person to remain in a state of mental stress for a long time. Xiong Jiushan immediately asked the team behind him to alternate positions of defense and relaxation. Soon, the escort team behind him became more compact and gathered strength.
Both sides maintained an unusually balanced pace in subtle silence.
No one among the subordinates who have been following Xiong Jiushan spoke at this moment. At this point, the two sides will meet each other sooner or later, but they are all guessing that the other party wants to keep an eye on them all the way to the narrow and narrow front. If we start on the steep defile again, we should wait for them to show their fatigue and then pounce on them together.
The heavily armed exile team has also been prepared for close combat.
The robbers, who were hiding in the forest with ease, stared at the "hurried" marching official team below from a distance. They could no longer hold back the butcher's knife and shovel in their hands.
But I still haven’t seen the orders from several leaders.
Why don’t you take action yet?
The bandit leader who was ordered to surround and drive away the "prey" looked up at the sky for countless times. His cold face was filled with bloodthirsty excitement. With just one command from the sky, he could sacrifice his blood to his knife and enjoy the long-lost joy. Hunting game.
The horse under his crotch snorted heavily and exhaled a heavy breath that had been impatient for a long time.
The hour has arrived, why doesn’t the order sound?
If you delay any longer, the fat on your lips may fall into someone else's mouth.
Horse hooves are tapping in the slightly muddy forest land in the early morning, waiting in the distance.
The first city bell was rung early in the morning.
The gate of Yucheng opened wide, and a carriage ran out and galloped north. The car body swayed left and right, and the curtains tossed and danced in the cold wind.
"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Hurry up!"
The people in the car were so anxious that they couldn't sit still at all. They scratched the frame of the car and wanted to use their fingers. Just touch the front and you can fly over.
The coachman's whip was already crackling. The people who had been waiting outside the city to enter the city were frightened and hurriedly stepped aside with poles and frames to make way for the crazy carriages and horses!
“Which madman from this family is leaving the city?”
The cold wind was blowing, and tables and chairs were set up at the gate of the city. The people inside and outside passing by registered and paid. , life is just like every morning, no one cares about anything unusual today.
Early in the morning at the city gate, there was order amid chaos.
Suddenly, at the entrance of the city street, a gong sounded to clear the way.
The people gave way to both sides. After a while, the team of the government office passed by in full uniform. The sharp-eyed people around them discovered that why were there so many strange people following the officials of the Yucheng government office?
There are even some faces that are quite conspicuous in this Yucheng...
"Is your health okay, sir?"
"The county magistrate brought so many people with him. What are you going out of the city for?”
“I don’t know, are you going to pray outside the city? Isn’t the river still freezing?”
Neighbors who were gossiping behind him came up and said categorically: "You know Er Jianghe, but you haven't heard about what happened last night?"
Everyone turned back to look at the speaker, "It happened. What?"
"I heard that our county magistrate dragged his sick body to various houses to ask for help and went out of the city to suppress the bandits! Really? Don’t talk nonsense! The thieves outside the city are very cruel. With just a few people, the people are not unified. How dare the county magistrate go to suppress the bandits? , After all, I am still young and I don’t know the depth.” Some people can’t help but worry.
"Yes... We in Yucheng will not have to change our parents' officials again, right?"
"Ah? Bah, bah, bah! He actually said unlucky words. Feng Zhixian is a good official, I don’t want to change.”
“You are a commoner, it doesn’t matter!”
Looking at the team going away, from this early morning, the people in Yucheng couldn’t help but change. They dragged the sick body to go to the county magistrate Feng Chen to eliminate harm to the people, and find out what happened after his death.
In Yucheng, the gate of Yu Mansion was closed overnight.
In the basement, Yu Ji was pregnant and still asleep. Suddenly there was the sound of unlocking the door. The mother-in-law Wang Ma who was sleeping on the bed beside her jumped up and sat up from her dream!
The small door was opened.
A hoarse, cold voice sounded outside the door.
“Go in and take the person out, hurry up!”
“What are you going to do?! Who asked you to take the person into custody? Where is the madam? Master!!!”
< br>Mr. Wang desperately protected her mistress Yu Ji, who had just woken up, to prevent clumsy people from hurting the fetus in her belly.
“Pa!”
A loud slap made her dizzy.
"What is it called! If you want to survive, just keep your mouth shut and hurry up and follow!"
Yu Ji's master and servant were stunned!
