Chapter 5 Trapped Beast
Let's say that Wu Er is focused on waiting for the upcoming danger. At this time, it can be said that his heart is like soup, but on the surface it is extremely calm. Time is too slow for Wu Er. Just when Wu Er felt that his will was about to wear out, the four men came back.
It turned out to be the time of palm light. These four people really want to play in the town. After all, it is the time when some people really wake up after nightfall, but they all have something to say, and they dare not listen. So they will all come back.
The four took roast chicken and soju, saying that they inquired about it in the town and bought it in a flavorful place. Wu Ershu was also a little hungry all afternoon, so he took it and ate it. At this time, Wu Song's thoughts were very different from those at noon. At noon, he was looking forward to the end of this errand slowly. He had always had a reason not to return to Yanggu, but now he can't wait to do his errands here.
After eating and waiting for a while, Wu Song asked the four men to look at the box. It's safer to walk out the door by yourself, and nothing will happen. Wu Er came out and shook casually, untied his hand and then went to the lobby. After nightfall, many people came to Gaopeng Inn. These people looked and dressed differently. The only thing that was the same was the dust on their bodies. It seems that it has been a day's journey. This Gaopeng Inn is much more elegant than the town, which is probably the reason why passers-by spend a lot of money here every year.
Wu Er asked for a pot of tea and two snacks. He sat on the table next to the lobby and looked at these travelers who used rice. He really wanted to find the second and the boss's wife of the wild shop, but he didn't get much. Observe carefully, some of these people who use rice are also good hands on their fists and feet, with strong limbs and long breathing. These movements are difficult to hide when eating. However, in this troubled world, there are many people who can fight, and it is not surprising to think about it. After a while, the people in the lobby gradually dispersed. Everyone returned to the guest room to rest. Wu Song's tea was cold and the snacks were almost eaten. Erlang returned to his room with his hands on his back.
When they entered the room, the four messengers were puzzled, because they found that the box that was originally in the outer room had arrived in the inner room, which was very puzzled. Erlang smiled indulgently after hearing this, grabbed his hands gently, and raised the box above his head. Everyone praised the divine power, and Wu Er was also very happy. Wu Erxian's ability is nothing but to see if the weight in the box has changed, and also to see if there is any change in the box. As a result, it is no different from when you leave.
"Sleep well, and the box will be put in the inner room and I will take care of it. After so many days of fatigue, brothers should work harder and send it to the capital as soon as possible so that we can return to Yanggu so that we can receive rewards.
"You're right. Yanggu has more places than this. Everyone is asleep."
Four officials walked out of the inner room and closed the door to sleep.
Wusong dares not sleep. The more he observes and thinks, the more dangerous he feels. At this time, Wu Er really hoped that he was himself when he was in Qinghe County. Thinking about problems is simple and he doesn't think about it. There won't be so much anxiety. What are you afraid of when others come to steal boxes? If there are many people on the other side and you can't beat them, what does it matter if you die? Wu Er also knew that this was not a problem that could be solved by anxiety, but anxiety still wrapped around him like a snake. How could Wu Er sleep peacefully?
So Wu Song still maintained the afternoon state, pressing the box with one hand and sitting at the vigil. After a night like this.
The chicken crows three times, and the sky is bright. Wu Er kept the movement all night, and his body was also a little numb, so he got up and moved a few times. There was no rest for two consecutive days, which also made Wu Song's head a little heavy. He opened the connected door and woke up four officials. After the four woke up, they washed Wu Er's face, and Wu Song washed his face. In the reflection of the water, Wu Er's expression was frozen and his eyes were a little red. He packed some clothes, settled the money of the store, bought dry food, took out the carriage, and the four men carried the boxes and put them on the carriage. Wu Er turned over his horse and walked to the capital with five people and two horses.
After Wu Song was still dragged in the queue, he now found that he could see this box more safely at all times. After walking a few miles out of the town, Wu Er felt something was wrong. He took a few steps quickly and finally found the reason why he felt wrong. A clear number of nail prints appeared next to the copper coin print yesterday.
Wu Er found the copper coin print since yesterday, and now he has found the nail print, and has hardly let the box leave him. But the box is still marked. This mark is much more conspicuous than yesterday. Obviously, it is no longer an obscure meaning. It is more like a demonstration, and it seems that it can be done under its own guard. Being able to print his nails so deeply on the hardwood box shows that this person's skill is excellent, and King Kong's fingering is already amazing. You should know that it is easy to leave marks with your fingers, but your nails are relatively weak. Leave marks with your nails is purely to show off martial arts and bully Wu Er's incompetence.
If this is a provocation, it is really a terrible provocation.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hoofs behind him was like a storm, and it was obvious that the other party was rushing. Wu Er stopped the horse and stretched out his right hand to his waist knife to prepare for the battle. I saw the two riders rushing in. When it was almost in front of me, it was the second child and the boss's wife of the wild shop. They are still dressed as yesterday's scholar and lady, but with this skilled riding, how can they see any weakness?
Wu Er is ready to fight. He unfolded his consciousness as if he could sense the next move of the two, and his right hand also figured out how to wave the first knife. The distance between the two riders was getting closer and faster, and the speed was getting faster and faster. Just as Wu Song couldn't help preparing to take action first, the two riders quickly passed by, and then passed the carriage and ran away quickly. And Wu Song, who held the handle of the knife, was surprised and dumb as a wooden chicken.
It seems that I have been too worried. Maybe the imprint has nothing to do with these two. Wu Song was also glad that if he couldn't help wielding this knife first just now, it might cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. Never mind, just stop and keep on your way.
It's been sunny these days. I missed half a day yesterday, so I have to hurry up today. Wu Song and the four explained that the four had no complaints. At noon, two riders passed by behind. They were two men. Looking at Wu Song's figure, they recognized the people who ate in the lobby last night, and the two also passed by quickly. Wu Er thought, and it seems that there are still a lot of people on the way. At noon, the five people took out dry food to take a few bites, drank some water and continued to travel. In the afternoon, three waves of riders passed by, and Wu Song felt something was wrong.
These people, without exception, appeared in Gaopeng Inn yesterday, and the time allocation of these five waves of riders is also quite average. These people are riding so fast that they are obviously in a hurry. Fortunately, my group got up early and didn't have breakfast that morning. They got up a little late, had breakfast, and rode from behind. It was normal at this time. But the three waves in the afternoon could not be explained. Especially when the last two riders passed by, the sky was already a little dusk. Although they drove all the way, after all, there were carriages that were not fast. In about time, the other party at least set out from Gaopeng Inn after noon. There is no rush to leave in the afternoon.
There must be something wrong with this. But what is the purpose of the other party? If you want silver, isn't it too obvious? Wu Song wanted to ask the local government for help in the next place. After all, he had also been trained by officials to protect each other before, but on second thought, Yanggu County Magistrate, many of this silver and more than half of the money came from the wrong way. Once he said that his peers caught the handle, I'm afraid there would be many disadvantages in the future, so he gave up this idea.
After the fifth wave of riders passed by, they walked forward for half an hour and arrived at the place where they stayed. This town is bigger than the previous one, and you can see the bustling crowd when you don't enter the town. It is also written at the gate of the town: Li Jiapo.
Wu Er looked at the four people accompanying him and still talked and laughed. In the two days that seemed to them, the four people were not aware of it at all. Wu Song suddenly had a sense of superiority and wanted to tell them all this. After thinking about it, he just forget it. I'm bright and the enemy is in the dark. Why should I do something unnecessary to startle the snake?
As usual, he found a store to stay overnight. Wu Song opened the box and checked the box, and the silver was not lost. There is nothing new except two marks. Erlang knew that even if he was as guarded as yesterday, it would have no effect. Instead, he put himself in the light, which was very unfavorable. He simply let the two men look at the box and come out to eat by themselves.
Wu Song sat in the corner of the lobby with his back against the wall, so that most of the people in the lobby could be seen and see the movement of the door at the same time. As I thought, five waves of riders passing by during the day entered the lobby of the inn one after another, obviously surpassing themselves, but arriving later. Their goal is much more likely to be silver. Wu Erlang suddenly felt that he had died on Jingyanggang for a long time, and became the head of it. It can be regarded as a glorious family. The Wu family has been an unsage for generations, and now it is now considered to be against life. What other unnecessary expectations?
"Second, a jar of wine." Wu Song has been greedy for many days and has been trapped in the mission. Now he is bold and dry. If he doesn't drink a little wine, he will face unknown dangers, which will only amplify his fear. The two men were stunned when they saw Wu Song want to drink, but they couldn't stop it.
A short time, the wine comes. Wu Song drank directly from the altar. Wu Erlang drank 18 bowls of "go out" under Jingyanggang. What is the amount of alcohol? Although the town is large, the wine sold is much worse than that of three bowls. Wu Er ate a big mouthful of wine and a large piece of meat. At this time, he threw his fear and anxiety out of the sky. He only felt that even if his head fell off at this time, it was just a scar the size of a bowl. Just intention, the wine spilled on the painting, and his chest was wet. Wu Song stood up, stepped upstairs a few steps, and walked to his room to find a change of clothes.
Just as Wu Song was about to reach the door of the room, he suddenly heard a "coo". Wu Er suddenly stopped. Yes, it was a pigeon call.
