When she heard that Li Pingan was leaving, Liu Yun couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
"The round trip may take about six or seven days."
"Then...should I go with you, or stay here?" Liu Yun asked tentatively.
"For safety's sake, you'd better stay here."
Liu Yun nodded obediently, "Okay."
Before leaving, Li Pingan left enough food for Liu Yun for seven days.
Li Pingan took Lao Niu and set off with only a simple luggage on his back.
Liu Yun looked at his leaving figure, feeling a little lonely in her heart.
Qian Sheng, the owner of Yuntong Restaurant, invited Li Pingan to escort the caravan.
There are also several escorts from the Ping An Escort Agency, which shows how much they attach importance to this caravan.
The leader of the Ping An Escort Bureau is Chen Shun, the young escort master.
The caravan is loading and unloading goods and preparing to set off.
"Mr. Chen, I have a hard time this time." Qian Sheng said.
"Don't worry, Boss Qian, the escort is here."
Although Chen Shun is young, he has traveled extensively with his father since he was a child, and his experience in martial arts is unparalleled.
"Boss Qian, don't worry, my senior brother has never made any mistakes in his escort service."
The person who spoke was the female escort Yin Yin, who was wearing a clean and neat tunic.
With a ponytail, fresh and attractive.
"That's right, Mr. Chen is young and promising..."
Boss Qian wanted to say something more, but the waiter over there suddenly called him.
Yin Yin yawned.
"Didn't you get a good rest last night?" Chen Shun asked.
Yin Yin said, "Stay up late and read a novel."
"We're going to be escorts today. How can we do it if we don't conserve our energy?"
Yin Yin showed a nonchalant expression, "It's only a six-day journey in total, and there are only a few forces in the surrounding area. Who dares to rob the security guards of the Ping An Security Bureau?"
While the two were talking, they saw a man walking in with a cow and a cane.
"Excuse me, is Boss Qian here?"
"Who are you?" Chen Shun looked at the other person.
Li Ping'an said: "Boss Qian asked me to come."
"Blind man?" Yin Yin whispered.
After a while, Qian Sheng came back.
Seeing Li Pingan, he walked over quickly.
"Brother Li, let me introduce you.
This is Mr. Chen, the young master of the Ping An Escort Agency, and this is his junior sister Yin Yin.
Mr. Chen, Brother Li will be with you on this trip."
Chen Shun was puzzled: "Boss Qian, what does this mean?"
Qian Sheng explained: "This brother Li was specially invited by me to escort him."
Upon hearing this, Chen Shun frowned immediately.
"Boss Qian, does this mean you don't trust our Security Bodyguard?"
Qian Sheng smiled apologetically and said: "How can I do that? I don't believe anyone and I can't help but believe you.
The main thing is that this time is different from the past, everything must be prepared just in case.
Don’t worry, the deposit won’t be less.”
Although Chen Shun is not happy, the employer is willing to hire as many people as possible to stop doing his work.
He only needed to be responsible for protecting the goods, so he didn't say much.
"Brother, what does the boss mean by this money? Invite a blind man?"
Yin Yin glanced at Li Pingan, who was drinking tea not far away.
"Even if he invites a god, it's none of our business."
"I've seen him before, singing and singing on the streets of Dongbian Market." Yin Yin suddenly remembered this incident.
"Singing?" Chen Shun couldn't help but smile, "It seems that the money boss was deceived."
Chen Shun has seen this kind of thing a lot, similar to those blind Taoist priests who pretend to be experts on the streets and tell people's fortunes.
Pretend to be a ghost, giving people an unfathomable feeling.
"Then should we remind Boss Qian?" Yin Yin said.
"If we go ahead and talk about it, it will appear that we have ulterior motives and don't care about our affairs anyway."
At noon, we had our last lunch in Luoshui City.
Everyone then set off and left Luoshui City.
Go along the official road.
Yin Yin was very curious about Li Pingan's joining, and rode his bay red horse to Li Pingan's side.
"Hey blind man, were you singing in Dongshi before?"
"yes."
Li Ping'an didn't hide anything.
"If you don't sing on the streets, what are you doing here?"
"Boss Qian came to see me."
Yin Yin said curiously: "I know, I mean how did you deceive Boss Qian."
"Boss Qian came to see me."
Li Ping'an still said the same words.
Yin Yin curled his lips and said, "If you don't tell me, you're a stingy brat."
The caravan traveled all day and night.
Although I am following the official path, things are really not peaceful these days.
Especially this kind of eye-catching caravan, they met three waves of people looking for trouble in one day.
There are two waves of robbers entrenched on the top of the mountain, with dozens of men under their command.
The remaining wave was composed of caravans, no less than a hundred people.
Fortunately, I had the name of the Security Guard Bureau, so I only had to pay some token tolls.
After all, everyone is just here to make a living, looking for wealth rather than life.
That's how the escort agency is, it takes both black and white.
To "take it all in black and white", you need someone behind the government to protect you, and you also need to have a close relationship with the people in the world.
When it comes to matters in the arena, reputation accounts for 20%, and kung fu accounts for 20%.
The remaining 60% has to be rewarded by friends in both black and white circles.
The caravan was led by Qian Sheng's housekeeper, Hu Er.
Hu Er saw that Chen Shun was young but well-known.
The gangsters on the road all give face and are inevitably flattered.
Chen Shun enjoyed this feeling very much. He said modest words and felt very proud in his heart.
The first half of the trip went smoothly until the third day.
Everyone unexpectedly learned that the official road they were originally going to take was banned.
If you want to take a detour, you have two options, either go through the mangroves or take a detour through Taoyuan Town.
Chen Shun from the Ping An Escort suggested the mangrove forest because it would take two or three days longer to go around Taoyuan Town.
The housekeeper Hu Er remembered his master Qian Sheng's instructions before leaving, asking him to ask Li Ping'an about everything on the way.
Anyone who can attract the attention of my master must have some abilities.
Hu Er went to ask Li Ping'an again for his opinion.
Li Ping'an didn't care and asked the old cow casually.
"Moo~" the old cow barked.
Li Pingan told Hu Er that the mangroves might be dangerous.
To be on the safe side, it is better to take a detour to Taoyuan Town.
Hearing what Li Pingan said, Yin Yin suddenly became a little dissatisfied and asked.
"Why Mangroves Are Dangerous."
Li Ping'an didn't explain much, just said: "Guess."
"Guess?"
Yin Yin snorted.
Chen Shun is also a little dissatisfied. The most annoying thing about escorts is people who don't know how to pretend to understand.
With the name of Safeguard Agency, what dangers could there be in the surrounding area?
If you take a detour to Taoyuan Town, you won't encounter any danger.
This blind man will take the credit for himself so that he can continue to defraud the shopkeeper.
Chen Shun didn't want to meddle in these nosy matters.
However, it will take two more days to go around Taoyuan Town.
Who would be willing to work overtime for no reason, so his tone was a little rude.
"Your Majesty doesn't know how to walk darts, so don't talk nonsense. What dangers are there in the mangroves?"
Li Pingan was not annoyed and said calmly: "I just said it casually. It's up to you to believe it or not."
