Chapter 102 Canghai Chamber of Commerce
Luoshui is a not-long river in the State of Chu, with a total length of no more than 1,800 miles. It runs through the two counties of Suiyang and Nanjiao, and then flows into the Chu River, the largest river in the State of Chu.
This day is the beginning of March, and the spring is bright. In the territory of Suiyang County, along the road by Luoshui, a group of large Chu caravans is slowly marching.
This caravan is not small. There are more than 30 large cars, all of which are loaded with four horses. The car is slowly loaded, and the outside is tightly wrapped in a rain tarpaulin. Judging from the deep rut marks on the road, the weight of the goods on the car is not light.
There is a strong driver on every big car. Each driver is in his forties. From the thick callus on his hands, it shows that they are all skilled.
There are nearly 100 black escorts in the front and back of the team, all of whom are great guys in their twenties. They are all energetic, wide-shouldered, and the knives and guns in their hands are shining in the sunlight.
At the front of the caravan, there are more than a dozen tall horses, and more than a dozen strong men with compelling eyes leading. Judging from the fierce momentum on their bodies, they are at least forging martial artists.
Even if you don't see the triangular yellow flag inserted in the car, just look at some strong guards. Pedestrians on the road know that this caravan is one of the three major chambers of commerce in Dachu, the caravan of the Canghai Chamber of Commerce.
At noon, the caravan did not stop to eat, but continued to move forward. Both the handlebars and the guards took out dry food from their arms and ate the simplest lunch with the water in the kettle.
This is for the consideration of the speed of the caravan, which can save at least an hour and an extra 30 miles a day.
In the middle of the caravan, there were several blue satin caravans. The curtains next to a caravan picked up from the inside, revealing a red apple-like face. They looked out and shrank back.
"Miss! I have arrived in Suiyang. In another half a month, I will be able to go to Anyang County, and then I will be able to see the master and his wife. How's it going? Are you happy?" A crisp voice sounded, and just listening to the sound can be associated with the red apple face just now.
"Ye-huh! Of course I'm happy. Xiaohong, you will send two pieces of our osmanthus hibiscus soft cake to that teenager. He has just woken up from such a serious injury. I'm afraid he can't eat the cold and hard dry food. A gentle and gentle voice sounded, as soft as water, and there was an indescribable comfort and freshness in my ears.
"Hey! Miss, what do you think that teenager does? When we found him by Luoshui, he had only one breath left. Steward Hu also said that his injury was very serious, and he had some internal injuries. I'm afraid he was not an ordinary person. He would not save him for fear of trouble. If it hadn't been for the young lady's insisting, I'm afraid that the man would have died several times. Xiao Hong's voice said.
"Okay! Don't do so much. He is just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old teenager. What's the trouble? What's more, saving people's lives is better than building a seven-level Futu. How can we not save death?
"But the steward said..."
"Okay, go quickly. By the way, give this bottle of [Xuelian Jade Toad Pill] to Manager Hu and let Manager Hu give him one pill a day, so that he can recover faster."
The curtain in front of the carriage was picked up. One was dressed in a green jacket and had a maid's bun on her head. The thirteen- or fourteen-year-old girl got out of it, jumped out of the carriage, ran back a few steps, and jumped into a car behind.
She called the steward outside, and heard a response from the inside. The little girl opened the curtain of the sedan chair and got in.
There are two people in the car, one is about 50 years old, with three wisps of long chamical. The steward dressed man is sitting in the car, and there is a fourteen or fifteen-year-old teenager lying next to him.
"Xiao Hong is here. Did the lady ask you to come?" Manager Hu asked with a smile.
Xiao Hong handed a white porcelain bottle to Steward Hu: "Miss said, give him one a day."
Manager Hu opened the red silk on the mouth of the porcelain bottle, smelled it with his nose, and raised his head in surprise: "Xuelian jade toad pills?"
Xiaohong nodded, then came to the lying teenager, opened a handkerchief, took out a piece of osmanthus hibiscus cake from it, and handed it to the teenager's mouth: "Eat it, Miss gave it to you."
The teenager seemed to be recovering from a serious illness, and his face was still very pale. Looking at the soft cake handed to his mouth by Xiao Hong, he silently opened his mouth and bit it down. For a moment, a piece of soft cake came to his stomach.
Xiao Hong picked up another piece of soft cake and muttered, "I haven't seen you say a word for so many days. Are you mute?"
Xiao Hong was just a joke. When the teenager heard it, he nodded, then raised his hand with difficulty, straightened his mouth, and shook his hand again.
"Ah! You are really..." Xiaohong grew up in surprise and didn't seem to accept the fact that the teenager was mute.
There was a trace of suspicion in the eyes of the stewer Hu beside him. He looked deeply at the teenager's eyes, as if he wanted to see some flaws in the teenager's eyes, so as to make sure whether the teenager was telling the truth.
Steeder Hu wandered outside when he was a teenager. Decades of Jianghu experience made him never trust anyone. He instinctively had a very dangerous feeling for this teenager who was lying by Luoshui with a sword wound.
But in the eyes of the teenager, what Manager Hu saw was only the depth and calmness like a lake, without the unique panic and deception of the liar. According to Hu's decades of experience, a 14-year-old teenager would never have such a calm look if he had a ghost in his heart.
Am I wrong? Is this just an ordinary teenager? Manager Hu said to himself secretly.
However, Guanshi Hu still intuitively felt that there must be some secrets hidden in this teenager.
Irreed to the nonsense of the steward, the teenager silently ate two pieces of osmanthus hibiscus cake, then closed his eyes and seemed to fall asleep again.
When Xiaohong saw the teenager sleeping, she thought that he had just woken up from a serious injury and was very weak and sleepy, so she packed up her handkerchief and chatted with stewer Hu.
Neither of them noticed that the teenager lying in the corner of the carriage seemed to be asleep, but his closed eyelashes trembled from time to time, but he was silently listening to their conversation.
The teenager lying in the carriage of the Canghai Chamber of Commerce was Ding Yang who was chased and killed by Sun Fuji that day and fell into the river.
On that day, Ding Yang was injured by Sun No. Before being killed by Sun No. No., he jumped into the river. He had already suffered a great internal injury. At the moment before entering the water, he was hit in the chest by Sun No.
Fortunately, Ding Yang had an phantom rat leather armor to protect his body, but the huge impulse still broke his chest bone. After Ding Yang fell into the water, he immediately fell into a coma.
Ding Yang floated with the waves in a coma. After drifting dozens of miles along the river, he entered Luoshui and drifted out more than 300 miles before being stopped by a big tree lying on the bank of Luoshui.
He was encountering the convoy of the Canghai Chamber of Commerce. Ding Yang drifted hundreds of miles in the river, and his clothes and the soft armor were all washed away by the river. After the investigation by the Hu steward of the Canghai Chamber of Commerce, Ding Yang not only had multiple fractures all over his body, but also had serious internal injuries, which had reached the point of running out of oil.
In order to cause less trouble, the cautious steward Hu wanted to let Ding Yang kill himself. At this time, he happened to be seen by Murong Xin, the daughter of the president of the Canghai Chamber of Commerce of the caravan, and the decision to fight against the public.
Manager Hu couldn't resist Murong Xin, so he placed Ding Yang in an accompanying car. Ding Yang, who was so seriously injured, would die in less than two days. Unexpectedly, Ding Yang slowly woke up and turned around.
Although Ding Yang woke up, he lost too much blood. His sternum and ribs were broken by great force, and the internal organs in his body were also shaken into chaos.
What's more serious is that most of the meridians in Ding Yang's body were also messed up by Sun Fuji's Liuyun Sword Mang, many meridians were broken, and many meridians were seriously deviated from the normal position.
When Ding Yang woke up, he was shocked to find that his Dantian had become empty, and there was no trace of true anger in his skin and bones. He had lost all his cultivation and was beaten back into an ordinary mountain village teenager.
Ding Yang's heart suddenly became cold, and he really couldn't face such a cruel fact.
