"Damn it, this scoundrel did such a shameful thing in public."
The carriage was already on the road, but Song Qianqian still seemed a little aggrieved.
Pouting.
Qin Kexin glanced at her and joked: "You hate that that person is not you, right?"
Song Qianqian's pretty face turned red and she cursed: "Damn girl, you're still making fun of me. Who was so stupid just now, saying that you wish you didn't know that bastard earlier?"
Qin Kexin rolled her eyes and did not dwell on this issue.
Instead, he wondered: "What kind of poem did he send to Su Mingyue? Why is it so mysterious."
Many people are concerned about this issue, not just her.
"Uncle, what is the poem you sent to the eldest lady?"
The young man and the second boy were no exception and asked.
He is a servant of the Su family. He did not bring Caiyun and Zhuiyue with him for the exam this time, only He Er, Lao Mo and a dozen other veterans.
Lao Mo and others were strongly requested by Su Mingyue to ensure Lin Bai's safety.
Although there were soldiers escorted, Lin Bai didn't think it was necessary, but Su Mingyue insisted that since his wife was so concerned, she should just take them with her!
As for Caiyun Zhuiyue, why Su Mingyue didn't let her take the lead.
Lin Bai was also a little surprised.
"Ha! What? Have you started reading too?"
He Er giggled, scratched his head and said, "How can I know this? To be honest, someone gave me some money to ask for help."
This guy was a bachelor, so he probably knew that Lin Bai wouldn't care about this.
Lin Bai was happy.
There are people giving money here, why not just give it to yourself.
Jiangzhou is not too far from Jinling, but it will take three or four days for a large army to stop and go.
It was a boring journey, and he couldn't even find a girl to flirt with. There were some talented people who made friends with him, but they were in the minority after all.
There is no way, the light is too bright, most people really don't dare to get close.
Among the students, Lin Bai actually discovered Li Changfeng, but now this guy saw him like a mouse sees a cat and avoided him.
After walking like this for two days, a stretch of high mountains appeared ahead.
The general in charge of the escort was named Wang Cheng.
He shouted at the front of the team: "Hurry up and follow us. After passing this Yuntai Mountain, we will go straight to Jinling. Our mission is completed."
Lao Mo and the others also lined up around the carriage.
Lin Bai sensed something was wrong and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Lao Mo said: "Back to Master, when we sent Bu into Jinling, we heard that a group of bandits came in this generation, but don't worry, Master, this is not far from Jinling. Even if there are bandits, there won't be too many, let alone dare to Take action against the convoy escorting grain and grass."
Lin Bai nodded.
Jiangnan has been prosperous since ancient times and is close to Jinling. If that is true, then these bandits will really have the courage to eat.
However, whatever you fear comes out.
When the convoy entered a ramp with steep cliffs on both sides, a rumbling sound suddenly came from above.
I saw huge boulders rolling down the cliff.
Wang Cheng's expression changed drastically, "The enemy is attacking, be on guard!"
The soldiers responded quickly, but all the scholars were panicked. They had never seen such a scene.
For a moment, the scene was in chaos, boulders rolled down, and many scholars were hit.
In mild cases, the head will be broken and bleeding, in severe cases, death will occur on the spot.
Lin Bai was also a little panicked.
What the hell!
What about making movies? They are all close to Jinling. These bandits are too rampant!
Fortunately, there was Lao Mo and his party, so he was not harmed. Wang Cheng also commanded well and resisted the attacks of these boulders. However, soon, a large amount of tung oil was spilled from above, and many torches were thrown down.
A fire instantly broke out below.
Many bandits rushed down with shouts and murderous intent.
"Bold thieves and robbers who dare to rob the army and rations, kill them!"
Wang Cheng yelled angrily, and the soldiers rushed forward instantly, with killing cries rising to the sky.
These bandits don't seem to have much fighting power, at least not comparable to these regular troops.
The two sides fought for a while, and soon the soldiers took over.
But a lot of food and grass were also burned.
a mess.
Wang Cheng's face turned livid, these were military rations, and he immediately said: "Protect the rations and rush out first."
The terrain here is easy to defend but difficult to attack. There are boulders and tung oil on it, making it impossible to attack.
Even if the bandits are forced to take away the food and grass, they can't keep it, so...
Besides, there are so many scholars.
The large troops rushed out quickly to protect the food and grass. The bandits sniped desperately. Both sides suffered casualties. Fortunately, they finally rushed out.
Lin Bai's little heart was beating loudly.
Ancient times were really not a place for people to stay. Bandits were always around. These days...
It seems that I am right to support veterans. I should support more and recruit more when I go back.
If it weren't for Lao Mo and others protecting him just now, he would definitely not be able to be as safe as he is now, maybe...
Afraid!
At this time, the convoy had been reorganized. Although one-third of the food and grass had been lost, it was considered a great blessing among misfortunes, and all the scholars were frightened and all looked pale.
"It's okay, everyone, don't worry."
Wang Chengan settled everyone and prepared to continue on the road.
At this moment, an old man covered in blood stumbled after him from behind, shouting: "General Wang, General Wang, please save my young lady."
Wang Cheng asked: "Who are you? Who is your lady?"
The old man said quickly: "I am a servant of the Song family, and my young lady is Song Qianqian, the daughter of the Song family. The carriage was just robbed by bandits."
"What did you say?"
Lin Bai was originally calm, but his expression suddenly changed when he heard this.
The old man recognized him at a glance and said quickly: "Uncle, save the young lady, the young lady has been robbed."
It’s my uncle!
Lin Bai was speechless.
But there was no time to ask these questions at this moment, so he quickly asked: "Why is Song Qianqian here? Isn't she in Jiangzhou?"
"Back to my uncle, the lady was worried about him, so she followed. She was afraid of disturbing him, so she followed the convoy. Don't you want to..."
This goblin is doing all these things.
Lin Bai quickly looked at Wang Cheng, "General Wang..."
However, before he finished speaking, someone said: "General Wang, it will be dark soon. If those bandits are still ambushing..."
"Yes! Get out of here quickly, military rations are important."
Everyone was so frightened that they couldn't care about anyone else.
Although Wang Cheng also wanted to kill the bandits, he had to put the overall situation first.
Military food is the most important thing and cannot be lost, otherwise he will not be able to afford it, not to mention there are so many students.
These bastards!
Lin Bai was a little angry, but he had no time to talk nonsense with these people. If he delayed for a while, Song Qianqian would be in more danger, so he immediately said: "Old Mo, follow me to save people."
"Master Lin, wait!"
Wang Cheng said at this time, "I have responsibilities. I can't leave, but I can lend you some people."
"In addition, I will order people to go to the local government office immediately to mobilize manpower, hoping to help Mr. Lin rescue Miss Song."
Lin Bai didn't waste any time and saluted Wang Cheng, "Thank you, General Wang."
"Walk!"
