Chapter 463

Silently all the way, the fleet finally entered the canal before dawn and quickly arrived at the dock.

At this time, on the shore, the escort agency under the Gao family was already ready.

As the three small speedboats slowly docked, and following Liu Deshui's order, the dock workers began to unload the cargo.

Liu Deshui, who was in charge, took Nan Yanxi to the person in charge of the escort agency who came to hand over.

"Hahaha... Manager Liu, thank you for your hard work..." Before the two groups of people approached, a confident voice came.

Nan Yanxi secretly praised her in her heart. This person's voice was strong and powerful, and his internal strength was not low.

After leaving in search of the sound, she saw several warriors wearing half-length leather armor walking towards her. Nan Yanxi knew that these should be the Shunwei Escort Bureau under the Gao Mansion.

Due to court regulations, civilians are not allowed to hide iron armor privately, so escort agencies and the like use leather armor.

The one at the head was dressed in black attire, brown leather armor and wrist guards, and walked with ease.

Looking at the face, he has a Chinese character face, and looks like he is in his fifties according to his grade. He has a slightly gray beard, about one foot long.

Carrying an exquisite horizontal knife on his waist, this thing has only become popular in this other world in the past few years.

Not only the horizontal sword, but also good Chinese cold weapons such as the horse sword, the armor, the Miao sword, etc. are also very popular recently.

However, the armor-piercing and horse-shafting swords are still contraband for the time being, and the Miao knife is too long, too large, and inconvenient to use, so they are not as popular as the horizontal knife.

And their ancestor in this world is naturally Nan Yanxi himself.

Hearing this, Liu Deshui's face changed instantly. He went from frightened and frightened to a calm, humorous and friendly look.

He also cupped his hands to the people who came up to him: "Hahaha... Who was I at that time? It turned out to be Mr. Wu, the head of the bodyguard... It was you who came to escort me in person!"

"That's that, that's..." Mr. Wu laughed, but he couldn't say it clearly in front of the servants, so he just said in a vague way: "The matter is very important at this time, so I have to go there in person to feel at ease.

"

At this time, the two of them had gathered together, and the sensible Liu Deshui hurriedly introduced to Nan Yanxi: "Master... this is the chief escort of our Shunwei Escort Bureau, senior Wu Ziyou."

Then he introduced to Wu Ziyou: "Mr. Wu, head of the bodyguard, this is my employer's maternal cousin, Mr. Zhang Sanjin, Mr. Zhang."

"Responsible for the supervision of our trip this time... This time at sea, thanks to him, otherwise I would be in trouble, brother!"

"Uh...ah...hahaha...that's right!" Wu Ziyou was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed along with the words.

In fact, when Butler Chen went to inform him at first, Wu Ziyou was confused and couldn't figure it out.

First of all, the current Gao family has a lot of property. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are making a lot of money every day. How could they take such a big risk to earn such a short-term profit of three melons and two dates?

Let the chief steward personally dispatch the work, and he, the chief escort, must personally escort it.

This is enough contraband to make everyone lose their heads. Wu Ziyou, a person with a relatively calm and cautious personality, really doesn't want to take this job.

But they have to carry out the tasks assigned by their boss.

Speaking of which, this is not a big deal. When Wu Ziyou was a teenager, he worked as a gangster in the original capital of Nanzhao, now the main city of Nanzhou.

Later, step by step, I went from the escort to the escort master, then to the escort chief, and then to the chief escort chief.

For more than thirty years, there were many black and white people on this earth who did not give him face.

Although it is not worth it, it should be said that it is still a sure thing to take the hidden goods that cannot be seen in the light to Dongling County, which is not far away.

Logically speaking, the boss and the others should know this, so why did they send a newbie to follow him? What does this mean?

But the so-called old man and Ma Laohua were just like Liu Deshui. Although he was confused in his heart, Wu Ziyou didn't say anything, thinking that he must have a deep meaning in coming to his employer.

I just thought secretly in my heart, just don’t give random directions when the time comes on the road.

"Ah...hahaha...Mr. Zhang, thank you for your hard work." Wu Ziyou laughed dryly and held his hands in front of Nan Yanxi as a courtesy.

"Well, it's easy to talk about." Looking at Wu Ziyou's expression, Nan Yanxi understood in her heart that she still looked down upon herself.

But that doesn't matter. I have another purpose for my trip, and I'm not really here to escort the goods.

He hugged Wu Ziyou and said, "Old man, my trip is just to deal with some special situations that are difficult for everyone to solve."

"As for how to take this route and how to deal with emergencies, it's all up to you!"

Hearing this, Wu Ziyou felt a little more relaxed and said in his heart, I hope you will keep your word.

But on the surface, he was still quite polite. He raised his hands and said with a smile: "Where is it? Please give me some advice, sir."

The two parties exchanged a few more polite words, and the cargo, which was only 500 shi, was already loaded on the car.

It stands to reason that a carriage can pull this amount of stuff, but those thick and special wooden boxes take up a lot of space.

We had no choice but to use two carriages to load those things.

A separate carriage was prepared for Nan Yanxi, the noble son, and the entire team became a convoy of three carriages.

Wu Ziyou, the chief bodyguard, and his two deputies rode in front on this tall horse to clear the way, and twenty bodyguards escorted the convoy.

Nan Yanxi's carriage was placed at the end, and the six masked men who followed were lined up next to the two carriages pulling gunpowder.

After everyone was ready, following Wu Ziyou's order, the entire team set off in a haphazard manner.

Several escorts under the banner of Shunwei Escort Agency walked at the front, shouting "Hewu" and headed east.

This time's destination is deep in the mountains of Dongling County, east of Nanzhou City. The distance is not far. If you ride a fast horse, you can get there in about a day.

But after all, this is a cargo haul, and the convoy cannot run fast and can only move forward slowly.

According to the current speed, even if we start early and stop late, it will take at least three days to arrive.

Nan Yanxi didn't care. She simply packed up the carriage, leaned to the side, and left with her eyes narrowed.

The carriage swayed and creaked as it slowly moved forward on the deserted mountain road in the early morning.

During this period, everyone stopped to eat and rest. Near dusk, they finally left the main urban area of ​​Nanzhou City and entered the vast mountains.

Maybe it was because the world was at peace after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and maybe it was because the chief bodyguard really had a good reputation.

Along the way, there were basically no obstacles. It was not until the afternoon of the second day that the convoy finally entered Dongling County.

The motorcade moved forward slowly, and the people in the team had already finished saying those words. The hot afternoon sun was baking on the body, making people feel drowsy and tired.

On the perfect mountain road, apart from the sparse chirping of birds, there is only the sound of the creaking carriage, making people even more sleepy.

Nan Yanxi, who had eaten a full meal at noon, was sleeping soundly in the carriage at the end of the team.

Suddenly, the entire team came to a sudden stop, startling Nan Yanxi.

When I listened carefully, it became a little noisy outside.

Nan Yanxi smiled calmly, what was supposed to come finally came.

Outside, the noise gradually turned into the sound of swords and weapons. Nan Yanxi stretched out her hand to lift the curtain and looked outside. The scene was already very chaotic.

Surrounding the escort team were a group of people dressed in coarse cloth. Their ferocious looks and the weapons in their hands showed everyone that they were bandits and bandits.

Both sides drew their swords at each other, and the weapons clashed with each other, making clanging sounds. But for now, the two sides were not fighting, they were just confronting each other.

Wu Ziyou, the head guard, sat on his horse and held his hands in front of him, and politely said a few local slang to the thieves around him.

Nan Yanxi stood on the carriage and secretly looked at these guys. They were all dressed like bandits, and they spoke slanderously.

However, there is something a little abnormal.

After all, Wu Ziyou has been an experienced escort for thirty or forty years, and Shunwei Escort Bureau is even more senior, so he can be said to be famous.

Not to mention in Nanzhou, even if you go to places like Beiyuan Dayan, you still have a bit of face.

Why was he robbed in front of his house today, and he was so disrespectful to the chief escort that he looked like he was eating raw rice?
