The horse thieves were frightened and frightened. Some of them did not care about their two companions, who were still alive or dead. They turned their horses and ran back towards the road. As a result, they fell off the horses as soon as they turned around. Some of them raised their knives and yelled loudly, and in the middle of the words, they were yelling.
He rolled his eyes and fell down. The bald horse thief held up his knife and shouted: "Run away together!" He pulled the reins, quickly circled behind the other horse thieves, and ran away in a stream.
Seeing that the leader ran away first, the other horse thieves scattered like trees and hozens, but after all, their movements were a step slower and they had become the leader's human shield. With a series of muffled sounds of "bang", "bang" and "bang", they were killed one after another.
Five or six people fell down. When the remaining people heard the sound of their companions falling to the ground, they didn't even look back and didn't dare to stop for a breath. They pulled the horse's mane and flattered the horse to make the horse run faster.
"Are you in a hurry to attend the funeral for your parents? You ran so fast!"
Ji Cha put down his sleeves, got on a horse, shook the reins and started chasing. Hong Chen also got on the other horse, recalling his riding skills last time, holding the reins in his hands, clasping the horse's belly with his legs, and followed behind.
Seeing that the horse thieves were escaping very fast, Ji Cha stabbed two silver needles at the top of the horse's hind legs. The horse was in pain and its speed immediately increased by three points. Within a dozen breaths, he caught up with him at the end.
The three horse thieves raised their hands and swung the needle, whizzing through the air, knocking all three horse thieves off their horses.
There were only four horse thieves left in front who were still on the run. Ji Cha kept chasing them, shouting: "Weren't you very happy just now? Don't run away! Why are you so timid?"
When the four horse thieves heard this, they were even more frightened. They thought they had accidentally snatched food from a tiger and offended the local trail-cutting king. However, they did not expect that the girl who was targeted was a hard-on. I don’t know what means were used to kill several brothers.
They were all beaten to death. None of them dared to stop. They even threw away their torches and just continued to slap the horses on the butt with their whips.
The big black horse on the crotch of the bald horse thief was of good breed and ran fast. He was soon more than ten feet away from the other horse thieves, and there was a tendency to get farther and farther away. Just as he was relieved, he heard the sound of horse hooves in front of him.
, a man in a long gown suddenly appeared from the corner of the road riding a white horse.
"Don't block the road!"
The bald horse thief shouted, and raised his horse-cutting steel knife, ready to kill the incoming man with one strike. The corpse could also serve as a roadblock to block his pursuers.
The two knights approached in an instant. The bald horse thief slashed at the man in the long gown with his sword. However, the man in the long gown took out something unknown from his arms and knocked it on the blade. A huge force was transmitted directly to the bald horse thief through the blade and handle.
, the steel knife sank violently, his body tilted, and he fell off the horse.
The big black horse was scratched on its hind legs by the falling steel knife, and ran away without a trace, neighing. The bald horse thief fell down and chewed shit, knocking out a row of teeth. He sat up covering his bleeding mouth, only to see a man in a long gown.
Having dismounted, he finally saw clearly what he was holding - it was a book with blue covers and yellow pages.
At this time, Ji Cha had stabbed the other three horse thieves unconscious and chased them. When he saw that the bald horse thieves had been dismounted by others, his mood, which had just improved a little, became a little bit unhappiness and he asked: "Who are you? Take care of yourself."
Nosy business!”
The man in the long gown raised his head and cupped his hands towards Ji Cha: "While walking down the road ahead of Xialiuquan, I saw a large number of fresh horse hoofprints appearing densely. Many of the hoofprints had heavy marks of damage, and they were along the marks of a carriage.
In the past, I guessed that there might be a horse thief plundering for trouble, so I chased him all the way. When I saw this horse thief running away, I shot him down. I didn't expect that a brave and beautiful girl was chasing the bandit who was desperate, but I was rude and made it unnecessary.
"
If someone else had said these self-effacing and complimentary words, Ji Cha would have felt comfortable, but when he saw the face of the man in the long gown, his heart suddenly surged with disgust and anger. This Liu Quan was none other than the one who came from Hunan together.
Yun Cheng took a boat, and later helped the Yun family deal with his own Confucian scholars. Suppressing his anger, he narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Brother Liu, your family should live by the sea!"
Liu Quan was stunned and said: "Why did you say this, girl? To be honest, I am from Yunzhou. I have been living inland for more than 20 years and have never seen the sea."
"That's strange." Ji Cha said slowly, "If your family doesn't live by the sea, why are you so lenient?"
"this……"
Liu Quan smiled helplessly. He also knew that "your family lives by the sea, and your control is quite lenient" was a sentence to scold someone for meddling in other people's business, but seeing that the other party was a beautiful girl with outstanding temperament, she should be very well-educated, so he didn't use that sentence at all.
Think mean.
At this time, Hong Chen also came on horseback and said to Ji Cha: "Those horse thieves have all fallen, what should we do with them?"
Ji Cha said without hesitation: "Tear off their clothes, hang them upside down on a tree one by one, and then take away the horses and sell them for future payment."
"Very good." Hong Chen nodded in agreement, and then asked, "Horses are much more valuable than donkeys. Will the money from selling these horses be enough to have a Kyushu banquet?"
"My dear mother." Ji Cha looked at Hong Chen with wide eyes, "Why are you so grand? Do you still want to eat the Kyushu banquet every day? Why don't you go to Tianjing, sit on the dragon's throne, be the emperor, and sleep with the queen?"
"Ahem, you two, listen to me." Liu Quan couldn't listen to their nonsense, coughed twice on purpose, and interjected, "These horse thieves have done many evil things, and they have countless lives on their hands. They should be handed over to the police."
The government will impose penalties. As for the horses, the property they plundered should also be returned to the owner by the government, or be confiscated."
Ji Cha couldn't help but continue to ridicule: "Hey, people who live by the sea come here to eat carrots and worry less."
Hong Chen nodded and said: "What this elder brother seems to say makes more sense. Horse thieves are very bad. I was chased by them when I was a child and almost died. It would be more appropriate to hand them over to the government for disposal."
If he hadn't been able to defeat Hong Chen, Ji Cha would have really wanted to give him a few slaps in the face and teach him a lesson: "Are you stupid? We haven't had time to hide from the government, and you still send prisoners to others? When people see the disguise, you can even
Let’s catch him together and make great achievements directly, get promoted, make a fortune, marry a concubine, and reach the pinnacle of life!”
Taking a deep breath, Ji Cha rolled his eyes and said, "Since the noble Mr. Liu Quan is here, it's up to you to send the horse thieves to the government! Anyway, except for this bald horse thief, all the other horse thieves have been stabbed by me.
You may not wake up even if you sleep in a cave for six hours. If you tie them up, put them in the carriage in front, and send them to the government, you can still count on them to make a great contribution."
"Most of the horse thieves are controlled by girls, how dare I take credit?" Liu Quan began to refuse, "and I can't handle driving and driving horses on my own, so it would be better if you personally send them to the government."
Ji Cha was about to scold his mother-in-law and what kind of man she was, but Hong Chen said: "We are going to Ziyun City. If Brother Liu is on the way, he can go with us and escort them to the government there. When the time comes, you will send people to do meritorious service, and we will
If you make money by selling horses, wouldn’t you get the best of both worlds?”
Ji Cha was very surprised. Hong Chen was often stupid, but this time he made a clear calculation. Thinking again, he really didn't have much silver left. When the time came, he would sell the horse first, and then put Liu Quan, a rotten scholar, in the government.
I wanted to collect the rewards I received, and I could really make a fortune. He nodded with a straight face: "This is a good idea, but I don't know if Mr. Liu Quan is willing to go to Ziyun City with him."
Liu Quan immediately said: "Although I originally wanted to go to Tianzhou from the north, I am eager for justice and justice. What's the harm in helping you escort the horse thieves? Besides, I have already visited Ziyun City.
The idea of being the largest city in the state.”
"That's just right."
Ji Cha finally became happy, dismounted, tore off the clothes of the bald horse thief, and tied him up with strips of cloth. Then, together with Hong Chen and Liu Quan, they tied up all the sixteen horse thieves along the way and threw them into the carriage.
None of the horse thieves died, but the coachman was furious. Hong Chen picked up a steel knife from the ground and used it as a shovel, dug a hole and buried the coachman. The three then set off on the road, with Liu Quan driving to escort the horse thieves, Ji Cha and Hong
Chen rode on horseback and drove the horses to follow him, continuing towards Ziyun City.
While driving the horse, Ji Cha complained and lamented: "That big black horse is like a cross between Beidi Red Lotus Horse and Yunzhou Horse. If you sell it in the market, you can get at least a hundred taels of silver, but it is used by a man who lives by the sea."
Let go."
Liu Quan knew that he was teasing him again, but it was not good to be shameless and not answer, so he tried to change the subject: "Ah, I am really rude, I never asked the girl's name and the name of this young man."
"I don't dare take the name Fang. Our surname is Ji Mingchen. The Ji in memory is the dust of smoke." Ji Cha pointed at Hong Chen, "He is not a young master, he is my bodyguard. You can just call him Hongcha - the red of black tea."
