"If you don't have to drink wine as a penalty, I want to see whether the recipe is more important or life is more important!" The young man looked at a certain direction outside the forest with a sinister look on his face.
I wanted to buy the Ruyilu formula at a low price, but I didn't expect that the shopkeeper was so disrespectful and kicked them out without saying a few words.
Later, he planned a frame-up, but was discovered by the other party, and failed again. In fact, his brother-in-law, who was a county captain, was afraid and stopped providing him with any help.
Seeing that Ruyilu's business is getting more and more popular, if he doesn't take action, he can only watch the mountains of silver slip away from him.
He has already sent people to inquire about it. Every morning, they will bring Ruyilu to the shop in Fucheng. The shop closes at noon, and the shopkeeper will rent a carriage from the carriage shop to leave Fucheng, and this road is theirs.
The only way to go.
Since being soft isn't enough, the only option is to be tough. Stop them on the road and force them to find out the formula. Then be cruel if they don't say anything.
The people he was looking for were all rogues in the city. They were all good fighters. How could they not deal with a weak scholar when they were paid to do things?
This time, even if the big man was present, there was nothing to worry about.
Two fists are no match for four hands, but I have dozens of pairs of hands...
Even if the other party's post-reporting officer - the person in charge of hunting down thefts in Anxi County is his brother-in-law, they will naturally not investigate him.
What's more, there are so many unsolved cases every year, not even one more than this one. From the beginning to the end, he never came forward and no trace was found on him.
Of course, just in case, the shop cannot be opened in Qing'an Prefecture. Kyoto is a good place. If a few shops are opened there, the business will be even more prosperous...
Just when the young man was planning a bright future in his mind, a carriage slowly drove over from a distance.
What the few people were waiting for should be a carriage coming from the direction of Fucheng. This carriage was heading in the opposite direction. The young man didn't pay attention at first, but when he glanced away and saw a big man walking in front of the carriage, his face changed.
His expression was startled, and then he immediately whispered: "Cheer up, everyone. When the carriage in front comes, your target is the people in the carriage, and... the man at the front, I will give you a try later."
I'll hit you hard!"
The dozens of people lurking in the forest were all dressed in black, with half of their faces covered by black cloth. They were leaning loosely against the trees. After hearing the young man's words, they cheered up a little and hid their bodies.
, and looked outside.
The carriage was still moving slowly, and there were several figures in front and behind the carriage following at a leisurely pace.
Among these people, the strong man at the head was the more conspicuous, and he was also the one the employer paid special attention to just now. These people kept his appearance in mind, and could "take care" of him appropriately when they get started.
As for the others, it seemed that the threat to them was much smaller. They had a huge advantage in numbers, and they were all quite confident in their abilities, so they did not take these people seriously.
Inside the carriage, Li Xuan was sitting on a soft cushion, still thinking about a certain question in his mind.
If the land under their feet was a big ball, wouldn't the people living on the other side of the big ball fall into it?
Then, a more complex question emerged in his mind.
If it really falls, where will those people fall?
Thinking of this, Li Xuan knew that he could not continue thinking about it. This was far beyond the scope of what he could understand.
Call!
The voice of the escort came over, and the carriage suddenly stopped. Li Xuan staggered, opened the curtain, frowned and asked, "What happened? Why did you stop?"
"Sir, please stay in the carriage and don't come out. Something is wrong in front of you." The guard driving the carriage said in a deep voice.
Lao Fang and the guard leader were walking at the front, looking at a dense forest on one side of the road and frowning at the same time.
The trees in the forest are not strong enough to cover some people's bodies.
In broad daylight, hiding in the woods wearing black clothes and covering their faces, these people don't look normal.
In the forest, I saw the carriage parked there. Several people around the carriage also looked here. One of the men in black said with some suspicion: "Have they discovered us?"
"Impossible, we are obviously wearing night clothes."
"But...it's daytime now!"
"..."
…………
Someone said something, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
The young man's face was a little hot, because he had given the order to wear night clothes and cover his face.
Isn’t that what is said in those story novels?
Now is not the time to dwell on this. I originally thought of waiting for them to catch them by surprise when they passed by, but I didn't expect to be discovered so quickly. In this case, of course there is no need to hide it anymore. A trace of determination flashed on the young man's face, and he suddenly
He waved his hand and said: "Give it to me!"
Lao Fang and the others and the guards watched the masked men in black rushing out of the forest, their roars louder than the last, but they were all with bare hands and no weapons, and the expressions on their faces were a bit surprised.
However, since these people were coming for them, of course they couldn't be polite. The four of them stayed around the carriage, while Lao Fang, the leader of the guards and the other two people went towards the men in black.
Because they had received instructions from the young man just now, a small half of the dozen or so men in black rushed towards the carriage, while the other half aimed directly at Lao Fang and the others. Only a voice was heard saying: "Deal with that man first!"
The man they talked about was naturally Lao Fang.
As his employer's priority, he seemed to be the biggest threat to himself and others, but even half of the people rushed towards him.
The guard leader was stunned when he saw this. Half of the people rushed towards the guy, and the other half dealt with the three of them... Isn't this an obvious look down on people!
The battle between the two people has not yet decided the winner, and in the eyes of these people, it is obvious that the one named Fang is better than themselves...
It was unbearable. The leader of the guard snorted coldly and rushed straight towards the half of the men in black who were rushing towards Lao Fang.
"These people are mine!"
Of course, Lao Fang was not to be outdone, he stamped his feet violently, his speed suddenly increased a few points, and in an instant, he had rushed into the men in black.
The remaining two guards could only watch their leader and the big man surnamed Fang display their might, like tigers entering a flock of sheep. Their movements were crisp and clear. In just a few breaths, several men in black fell to the ground.
, no one can stand up anymore.
"Three of me!"
"I am three too!"
The two of them raised their heads at the same time, looking at the other half of the men in black who had been frozen in place with fierce eyes, snorted coldly at the same time, and rushed over again.
From time to time, there were banging sounds in the ears of the two guards. They must have been punched to the flesh. The two of them were stunned on the spot and did not dare to rush forward to help. Looking at the postures of the two guards, if they stepped forward, they might
Kill them both as well.
He was willing to go to the other side to help. After turning around, he discovered that the fighting around the carriage had ended. The four people were still protecting the carriage, and the ground was covered with men in black.
boom!
Lao Fang knocked out the last man in black with one strike of his hand. When he raised his head, he realized that the leader of the guard had already rushed towards the woods.
"You, don't come here!"
Looking at the people he brought with him from a distance, each one of them was able to get rid of them neatly. A look of horror finally appeared on the young man's face. He saw the man with a ferocious face approaching him step by step, while retreating.
, while speaking in a trembling voice.
"I, my brother-in-law is the county captain of this county. If you beat me, he won't let you go!"
"The county captain, right..."
A sneer appeared on the face of the guard leader, and he pinched the joints of his fingers. After a few breaths, screams began to echo in the forest.
