Wang Teng didn't expect that Min Qing would actually talk to him. He stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I don't dare to be a gentleman. I'm just a country boy. I've met a young lady."
"Your Excellency has a calm demeanor and talks and laughs freely. Such talents are rare in the countryside." Min Qing said with a smile: "I heard Mr. Zheng say during the day that you are also going to Kyoto. It is fate that we meet in the barren mountains. Please don't be polite in the motorcade. I need
You can give me whatever you want at any time."
"Thank you for your hospitality, Miss." Wang Teng nodded.
Minqing smiled at everyone again and said, "Okay, don't chat too late. Let's go to bed early after eating." He turned around and returned to the sedan chair again.
Wang Teng took a look and saw that almost all the guards were staring at Min Qing's graceful back like a pig brother, and thought to himself: "This woman is friendly and charming. It is normal for these guards to love her very much."
"
Mr. Zheng shouted angrily: "You guys, don't just look around. Hurry up, eat and drink, and go to bed early. When you arrive at Black Snake Ridge tomorrow, show your full energy."
The guards responded quickly.
"My little friend, I have asked someone to arrange a tent for you, and there will be people taking turns guarding it at night. You can sleep peacefully." Mr. Zheng smiled at Wang Teng again.
"Thank you, Mr. Zheng." Wang Teng nodded.
…
One night passed in a flash, and early the next morning, everyone got up and started on their way again!
Today's atmosphere was a bit depressing. Many people were holding on to their weapons while rushing on the road. Even Mr. Zheng was not chatting and laughing as easily as he was yesterday. There was also a little solemnity on his frowning face.
Wang Teng thought it must be because of the so-called "Black Snake Ridge" mentioned by Miss Minqing yesterday. He asked: "Mr. Zheng, I wonder where the Black Snake Ridge is?"
Mr. Zheng stared ahead: "This road is the only way to Kyoto. The Black Snake Ridge is a den of horse thieves and bandits for many desperadoes. They mainly rob business travelers all day long and are notorious."
Wang Teng frowned and said: "There is such a dark place, why don't the local officials care about it?"
Mr. Zheng sighed: "The Heifengling mountain is steep and easy to defend but difficult to attack. Among the many horse thieves, there are even masters known as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon from Chu State. It is too difficult to break it, so we have been in such a stalemate.
With."
Then he smiled and said: "Of course, little friends, don't be nervous. They are just asking for money. If we pay enough money, we will be fine."
Wang Teng nodded.
About half an hour later, the mountains on both sides gradually became steeper, and long and narrow canyons appeared in front of them.
Wang Teng looked up and saw that the mountain was black, smooth and thick, winding for dozens of miles, like a big black snake, stretching across the earth, majestic and particularly spectacular.
"This must be Black Snake Ridge." He thought to himself.
As soon as the thought fell, a rough shout came from the mountain, saying: "Whoever comes to my Black Snake Ridge, please tell me your name." After the voice fell, many people appeared on the mountain peaks on both sides, holding crossbows.
Aimed at them.
Many guards drew their swords.
Mr. Zheng waved his hand to stop them. He faced the height of the mountain, clasped his fists and laughed loudly and said: "It turns out to be the second master of "Luo Xiong". I'm sorry, we encountered a treasure on the way. Please make it easy and let us go."
The person his eyes fell on was the big man at the center of a group of robbers. The man was two meters tall, a head taller than the others. He was burly and as strong as a man-bear. He also had a scar on his face, full of evil energy.
He laughed: "Well, since you know me, you should know our rules."
"Of course, it's just a small gift, but it's not respectful." Mr. Zheng waved his hand, and a guard came out and threw a package. Luo Xiong caught it, and there was a pleasant sound of gold and silver colliding. When he opened it, he saw that it was indeed a package.
The golden cakes are so bright and valuable.
"You old man, you know what's interesting." Luo Xiong laughed.
"I wonder if we can leave here." Mr. Zheng smiled.
"The money is enough, but I have one more condition." Luo Xiong chuckled, and the scar on his face squirmed, making people shudder.
Mr. Zheng's smile froze, and he felt something was wrong.
Luo Xiong pointed at the sedan and said with a smile: "Hey, I have a very good nose. I can smell a woman's fragrance from a long way away. As expected, there must be a beautiful girl in this sedan. I haven't tasted a beautiful woman in a long time.
Just keep her, and I will let you go."
Mr. Zheng's face darkened: "Second Master, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. You, Heifengling, have already stipulated that if you take the initiative to pay, you won't feel sorry for passers-by."
"Rules? What I say here are the rules. I'm in a good mood. I can let you go without taking any of you. Otherwise, I can't call you grandpa. I just want to fuck a woman today. If you don't obediently hand over a fair-skinned girl.
Beautiful girl, let me play with you. No matter what I say, I can't live." Luo Xiong was extremely arrogant.
Mr. Zheng's face turned cold, a look of majesty appeared on his face, and he shouted loudly: "Luo Xiong, you are obviously being aggressive, look at what this is!"
He took out a token and saw that there were two big words "Huangpu" carved on it, including dragons and phoenixes!
When Wang Teng saw the token, he immediately lost his voice and said: "It turns out that you are the "Huangpu Family", one of the four royal families of Chu State.
Among the four major royal families of Chu State, even in Tiannan City, he is like thunder. This token marks the prominent status of one of them, the Huangpu family!
Mr. Zheng whispered to him: "Little friend, we also have our own difficulties. I hope you will forgive me for hiding it before."
Wang Teng nodded and smiled bitterly. He never thought that in the past two days, in the deserted mountains and forests, he would see this group of people from the motorcade, and they would be so powerful.
"Huangpu family, so to speak, in that sedan is the eldest daughter of Huangpu Minqing who openly escaped from marriage not long ago." However, after learning the terrifying identities of Mr. Zheng and others, Luo Xiong was not afraid, but laughed and said
: "I've finally waited for you."
"What do you mean?" Mr. Zheng's expression changed. He originally thought that revealing his identity as a Huangpu family would be enough to scare the gangsters. But now Luo Xiong not only did not have the slightest fear, but also looked like he had been waiting for him for a long time, which was obviously a ghost.
Luo Xiong chuckled and said: "To be honest, Mr. Qin Long has already issued an order, saying that you might meet Kyoto via this road, and we have been waiting."
Mr. Zheng's heart sank: "It turns out that the backer behind you is the Qin family." He didn't know this, otherwise he would not have revealed his identity. He also thought to himself that it was no wonder that Black Snake Ridge had always been able to get away with it. I'm afraid
He also has an inseparable relationship with the Qin family.
Luo Xiong laughed loudly: "I didn't expect it, now you have thrown yourself into a trap." He handed over the sedan and said with a smile: "Mrs. Qin, please get off the sedan. Mr. Qin will come soon after hearing the news and take you back.
