The sound of horse hooves disturbs people's dreams the most. Therefore, in the capital of Fengyou County, there was a law stating that at night, horses are not allowed to drive fast. They can only lead the horse to walk slowly, except for official officials or the army to explore the horse. Report urgently, as is the case with all the rest.
But today, there were countless horses galloping in the capital city. The night watch soldiers could hear it very clearly. The rapid sound of horse hooves could be heard from a long street away. Several horses came from far away almost in an instant, attracting more than a dozen people. The soldier shouted several times before he could stop the oncoming attack. He held a torch and lantern with one hand, while the other hand tightly grasped the handle of the lancet at his waist, not daring to slack off. After all, during the day, the caravan mobilized an unknown number of manpower, and even the government and the army were unable to stop at all. At this time of year, no one dared to be cautious easily, so they all pressed their swords for a while. , looking solemn.
The horse stopped, and the leader dismounted first. He hung the swords behind his back to the saddle bridge. With his hands empty, he walked alone in front of the soldiers. He cupped his fists and saluted: "Looking for people on a starry night, don't care too much. If there is any violation of the rules, you can't do it." I hope the military masters won’t be offended. It’s just a matter of courtesy and it’s just tea money.” After saying that, he took out a fist-sized cloth bag from his waist, threw it into the hands of the leading soldiers from a distance, and saluted again.
The night patrol soldier raised his hand to take the cloth bag, weighed it in his palm, and was quite surprised. The silver in this bag is really enough, let alone drinking tea, it is enough for a group of people to go to a restaurant in the city where they can wait for a seat, and have three or five times to drink and eat. At the moment, I feel a little relieved, and I rush behind a few The man waved his hand, put down the handle of the lancet on his waist, and asked confusedly, "Looking at their appearance, they should be from the Jianghu community. The situation in Fengyou County is not very stable recently. Most of the Jianghu people have withdrawn their sharpness. Could it be that A member of the caravan?"
The man shook his head when he heard this, "We are not from the caravan. We came from Baihao Mountain outside the city specifically to find someone. We had no choice but to ride our horses in the city out of urgency. If we hadn't met a few military masters, I'm afraid we would still be there." I can’t remember these rules and regulations, after all, I have been outside the county for many years, and I have forgotten many things without realizing it.”
The leading soldier thought for a moment, and finally remembered some things here. The Baihu Sect has become famous in recent days, so his words were a little restrained. After all, this person has all the etiquette and filial piety first. A small sum of money for tea, his reputation is gradually rising, and he is extremely polite, which cannot be overstated. "Since you are a guest in the White Gourd Sect, you can just do what you want with a few horses. Don't break into the empty door or enter the woman's boudoir by mistake." That’s it, it’s been cold and cold in this city recently, and I’m afraid it’s hard to see the spring sunshine, but it will make you feel uncomfortable.”
The leading man couldn't help laughing, nodded and said, "That's indeed the truth. I also want to thank the military master for his kind words. We are just looking for someone, and we don't dare to break into other people's houses and bother you." Immediately, he clasped his fists again and held hands. The horse goes away.
After everyone left with their horses, the soldier weighed the crisp silver coins in his hands and smiled at the people behind him: "I have been patrolling the streets for several months, and this time I still collect tea money for the first time, but I don't want it to be so thick. In your free time, invite several brothers to go to a restaurant to have a drink together. If there is any leftover, you can share it with others in the future. Don’t forget to never tell others about it, because you will be severely punished or beaten. If you are dismissed from the army, it will turn from a good thing into a bad thing. You all know the priorities here, and there is no need for me to express them clearly."
All the soldiers knew this very well, and they were waving their hands and laughing, which was quite a bit of a joke. Since everyone holds this profit, they naturally cannot expose others for no reason. If they are implicated, it will become a harm to others. It causes harm to oneself, so it is naturally extremely transparent.
Whether in the military or outside the military, this has nothing to do with whether military discipline is strict or not, it is always like this. Everyone led their horses and walked, and even the charred-faced man, who usually talked the most, figured out what it meant, so when he looked at his senior brother Shijie, his expression became even more respectful. When traveling in the mountains, my senior brother is always the most knowledgeable and impeccable in everything he does. He also often teaches other junior brothers how to act and protect themselves. Although he never spoke to stop him when he was in trouble with the caravan, other than that, how could he look at it from time to time? They are both called senior brothers.
"Master's whereabouts have been unpredictable all year round. The last time he came to the capital city of Fengyou County was many years ago. He was not familiar with the place and it was indeed difficult to find him. And now that it is dark and it is difficult to see pedestrians, where should he go? Search everywhere." The disciple who looked like a scholar frowned. The last time he came to the capital of Fengyou County was indeed an old time, and times had changed. Now he walked around a few streets in the city, and it was really unfamiliar to him. I don't even know where is Fengyue Street and where is the famous Xinqi Restaurant, everywhere I look there are raw materials.

The man carrying the sword stopped, thought for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "During the season when we entered the city, I once heard merchants on the way at starry night mention that the caravan was injured recently, and dozens of people were killed in a grand manner. A few blocks away, the police officers were out on patrol, but they clearly did not want to fulfill their responsibilities. They just jotted down the causes of death, asked the shopkeepers around them for a few words, and then headed back home. On the contrary, it was a caravan. When the wind blows up and down, several formations of sergeants go out to the town to guard against the movements of the caravan. From this point of view, I am afraid that only our master can kill nearly a hundred enemies with his own strength. It is better to look for them first. Let’s make plans for that inn.”
Ye Zhai has never been fond of killing. It was probably only when he went out to Baihao Mountain twice to kill the horse thieves in the West County that he became furious. The Immortal Family used all their methods to almost wipe out all the horse thieves. Even so, he usually does not want to commit murder. Even if he heard that the caravan was spying on him again and again, he was still uninterested and stayed behind closed doors. He did not pay attention to the caravans who were stationed all night at the foot of the mountain. What if this time? The disciple did not travel far away and returned, fearing that the horse gang would spy and almost occupy the entire foot and mountainside of Baihao Mountain.
Acting like this, firstly, he was probably angry, and secondly, he was drunk and had no scruples, which made Ye Zhai kill all the enemies who invaded by the caravan. Having known his master for many years, he could naturally detect clues. What happened today, in the past, would probably have brought all the enemies to the door. Ye Zhai would definitely not take action, but would use his superb body skills to collect his whereabouts.
"In this case, my junior brother and I went to look for the inn. The other junior brothers first searched for the inn on the high ground in the city and on the side of the flowing water. Master likes to sleep after drinking or walking around to watch the scenery. This area in the city is the easiest to find. trace."
The man carrying the sword just gave instructions and led the horse away.
The branches above the moon in the city are elegant and green.
