The leader suddenly became confused when he heard this guy's confusing words.
He pulled out the dagger from his back, lightly hit the young man in the face, and said viciously: "Boy...who the hell are you?"
Feeling the coldness and pain of the dagger hitting his face, the young man seemed very nervous, but he pretended to be calm and said: "Hmph... Who am I? Take me to see your shopkeeper, and you will know as soon as you ask!"
Seeing his tough talk, the robber leader was a little frightened by him.
After hesitating again and again, he finally gave the order: "Take this kid with you, and everyone will load up the goods and move out!"
"Yes! Chief!"
The robbers agreed and then began to get busy.
I saw them pulling out dozens of smaller packhorses from the woods, and placing the boxes containing gunpowder one by one on the horses' backs.
Then, some rocks were thrown from the roadside and hit the original carriages, turning the three carriages towards another fork in the road.
One of the robbers slashed the horse's butt with a knife. The three horses pulling the carriage neighed in pain, spread their hooves and ran towards the forked road.
After all this work, two more robbers came over and tied up the young man.
Blindfolded his eyes and gagged his mouth, he found a large sack and put him directly in it.
A few robbers were reasonable and put him on the back of one of the horses, and that was their end of the world.
After handling all this, the robber leader didn't waste any time. He looked around and saw no one, waved the sword in his hand and said, "Let's go!"
"yes!"
All the robbers agreed in unison, leading the small packhorses toward the depths of the mountain forest.
The young man's hands and feet were tied up and placed on a horse, and he was dangling among the group.
This person is naturally Nan Yanxi who transformed into Zhang Sanjin.
At this time, although his hands and feet were tied, his eyes were blindfolded and his mouth was gagged, he was not panicking at all.
He even tried to find a more comfortable position on the horse, and then he slowly fell asleep.
The leader of the robbers walking aside became even more confused when he heard the faint snoring.
How could this guy be so arrogant? He could actually sleep in this situation? He even snored...could it be...that what he said was true?
The leader of the robbers thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he had no choice but to give it up. Anyway, he just took this person back and let the boss handle it.
In this way, he no longer thought about anything, and just ordered the men behind him to pay attention to cleaning up the traces, and be careful of tongues following him.
At the same time, you should also pay attention to whether the guy on the horse will quietly leave any marks.
A team of dozens of people and dozens of horses was moving quickly through the dense forest, with a few people at the end of the team skillfully cleaning up the traces.
Nan Yanxi, who was lying on the horse and snoring, was counting silently in her heart. Time gradually passed and the journey gradually went further.
About three hours had passed, and even though I was blindfolded, I could clearly feel that the light outside had dimmed.
The team stopped then, and from the sound of it, they seemed to be taking a rest and eating.
As for Nan Yanxi on horseback, the robbers did not forget to pull him out of the sack and let him relieve himself.
He stuffed two mouthfuls of hard, dry dry food into his mouth, drank some water, and then stuffed it back into the sack.
This group of people was very cautious in doing things. When doing these things, the blindfold on Nan Yanxi's eyes was never removed.
But Nan Yanxi didn't care, his purpose was not that, and he obeyed the arrangements of this group of people.
After resting for about half an hour, under the order of the robber leader, the entire team set off again and walked deeper into the forest.
After walking for about two hours, Nan Yanxi, who was placed in a sack and blindfolded, clearly felt that the team was stunned, and there were bursts of rustling sounds in her ears.
After a while, the entire team set off again. However, this time, Nan Yanxi sensitively sensed something was wrong.
The air inhaled into the nose was obviously much moister, and the body also felt obviously cold and cool. Occasionally, in the ears, there was the sound of horse hooves guessing the water.
Nan Yanxi knew without guessing that he must have entered a river or cave somewhere.
I couldn't help but think in my heart, these guys, the road is quite wild, it is a dense forest and a cave. I want to see what kind of flowers you can do.
Lying comfortably on the specially made rack on the horse's back, the flat rack was originally used to hold the box containing gunpowder.
Fortunately, there was an extra one, just enough for him to lie on it.
I carefully felt the feeling of this change in the environment. Calculating it based on time, I walked for about an hour.
Nan Yanxi, who was sighing in his heart that the cave was really long, suddenly heard a movement keenly.
In other words, it is the noise coming from people gathering together.
The sound got closer and closer, and gradually became clearer. Nan Yanxi was stunned for a moment...looking ahead...could it be a village?
As she was thinking about it strangely, the cold feeling suddenly disappeared. Nan Yanxi's heart condensed, it seemed that the team had walked out of the cave.
The arrival of the team seemed to attract people's attention, and the noise just now suddenly became much quieter.
Nan Yanxi leaned on the horse and listened carefully.
"Commander Zhou...are you back so soon? The adults were still talking just now, saying that you won't be back until at least dawn."
"I didn't expect that you would come back just when I was about to be ugly!"
Listening to this voice, it seemed that a soldier was flattering the robber leader.
The robber leader, who was called Commander Zhou, laughed: "Yeah... I didn't expect that this operation went surprisingly smoothly."
"How about the big shopkeeper and the leaders?"
Hearing this, the soldier replied: "Oh, they are all on the mountain. Commander Zhou, please go quickly. They are all looking forward to you!"
"Hahaha...Okay, okay..." Commander Zhou laughed twice, turned around and ordered to the team: "Let's go up the mountain!"
Nan Yanxi, who was lying on the horse, secretly thought about it. It seemed that this was quite a small village. I just didn't know how many entrances there were. It was unlikely that I really needed to dig into a cave.
Although there were many doubts in her heart, Nan Yanxi had no choice but to listen with her eyes covered.
The sound of slight footsteps was accompanied by the clatter of horse hooves. From this angle, it was obvious that they were climbing the mountain.
After about a cup of tea, the team finally stopped and the angle became even.
Nan Yanxi listened carefully...
A familiar middle-aged man's voice suddenly sounded: "Zhou Rong? Why did you come back so early?"
"Haha... Mr. Feng, this operation went very smoothly." The robber leader named Zhou Rong smiled and replied: "You don't know... We have only fought against those escorts for a few rounds.
, they fled in a hurry."
"It seems that these escorts are boasting loudly all day long. In fact, their reputation is far greater than their strength... You and the big shopkeeper and the others were really overly worried at that time."
"Oh? Is that so?" Mr. Feng sounded suspicious and said cautiously: "Have you checked all the goods?"
"Haha, don't worry..." Zhou Rong patted his chest confidently: "General Mo will send people to check them all as soon as possible to ensure that there is no problem and the quantity is correct."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Feng responded slowly, while Nan Yanxi on horseback smiled secretly.
No wonder he was so familiar, wasn't this guy the masked middle-aged man who was on the island that night?
After about a while, I seemed to have finished checking the gunpowder, and I saw the sack on the horse's back.
The cautious Mr. Feng hurriedly asked Commander Zhou: "Zhou Rong, what is this? Who asked you to bring back the captives privately? Can't you just kill them with one knife?"
"Oh... no no no, Mr. Feng, please listen to my explanation." After hearing this, Zhou Rong quickly explained: "This person is not the bodyguards, but the one we found in the carriage compartment."
"Originally, the villain wanted to kill him with a knife and be done with it... But I don't know if this kid did it on purpose or because he said he was the same thing as us."
"The guy who clamored to see our big shopkeeper, what did he say... uh... oh yes, this guy also said that without him, we wouldn't be able to complete this task."
"The villain felt that the matter was of great importance, so he brought him here to see what the big shopkeeper had to say."
