Because they are just like carriages and carriages, they are tools, not escorts.
The mountain road is not wide, and at most it can only allow carriages to pass. There are some shrubs on both sides, which are specially reserved to protect passers-by.
There is a mountain wall on the inside of the road, and there are many trees growing on it. The big trees are towering, especially at night, they are dark and scary to look at.
There was a cliff on the outside. There were some trees when they first went up the mountain, but the place they originally started from was not on flat ground, but on the mountainside, so after walking for a while, the outside became a bare cliff!
There was a wind blowing over the cliff, and the sound sounded to my ears like a ghost crying or a wolf howling.
None of the porters and the two girls dared to make a sound. They all hunched their shoulders and leaned against each other with their arms folded.
Although it is midsummer, it is very cold here.
Especially the black shadows on one side and the mountain wind like ghosts crying on the other are particularly scary.
Shen Mingzhu and others were not afraid. She looked at both sides and smiled at Zhang Huai: "You can hide people under this cliff, but it is dangerous there. It is better to lie in ambush directly above and be condescending. It is actually better. They say there are bandits, so
I don’t know where they live.”
Zhang Huai silently lit a big candle for those bandits and was remembered by our eldest lady. I don't know whether it was their honor or misfortune.
Naturally there were people hiding in the woods at this time, but it was pitch dark and they were wearing black clothes, so no one could see them even if they were not hiding behind the trees.
If you have good eyesight, you will be startled when you glance over and see a flash of black shadow.
Therefore, almost no one dares to look around while walking at night, because even if there is no movement, it can scare themselves half to death.
Under a tall cedar tree, a man in a black cloak stood there silently, without saying a word, his back almost blending into the tree.
There is nothing reflective about them, so in such a dark night, they are darker than those trees.
So no one will ever discover them.
A black shadow stopped beside him silently and said softly: "Hall Master Zuo, they seem to be on guard. Could they have discovered our whereabouts?"
The Zuo Hall Master shook his head, "It's impossible. Even if they were on guard, they would only guess that they were bandits, and they would never guess that they were on us."
When the man thought about it, it was indeed the case, and he said: "It is indeed the case. The hall master Shen Mingzhu has a deep scheming mind. Except for the few personal guards, all the people she brought with her bought our Yue Kingdom.
Servant."
After a pause, he asked again: "Shall we kill him?"
Hall Master Zuo hummed: "Should we kill the accompanying animals?"
The man was stunned and said, "Of course there is no need to kill animals."
Even after he said it, he realized what Zuo Hall Master meant. Those slaves were almost like animals. What was there to kill?
Moreover, they were bought by Shen Mingzhu at the market, so they have no loyalty to her. If a crisis occurs, they will naturally hide and will not protect Shen Mingzhu.
So if they don't seek death themselves, then there is no need to kill them.
The man responded and said viciously: "Master, they are about to enter the death zone. Should we take action?"
Hall Master Zuo shook his head, "No hurry, just wait."
The subordinate was a little anxious, "Lord, the road to death is the most suitable place.
