"Master Li, have you ever rested?"
Although there were still lights leaking out from the tent, the man carrying the mutton errands knew etiquette, so he naturally had to ask.
The next second, the curtain at the entrance of the tent was gently lifted, and a tall young man leaned out with a smile on his face.
"Xun, what can I do for you..."
The errand boy secretly praised him. Mr. Li was really handsome. I don’t know if it was because there were too many rough men in the caravan. He always felt that Mr. Li had a male-female look to him. That’s why. Being tall makes people look a bit oppressive.
However, although Li Jing has been keeping a low profile these past two days, he can still be considered generous. He can talk to them and the guards, especially the third master. Everyone admires his eloquence and feels that this person hides a lot. They are both knowledgeable and generous, so they all respect him.
"It's nothing. The third master asked me to bring some roasted mutton for Mr. Li and Mrs. Ling. They have been eating rough food for the past two days, and I will go to replenish the body of Mr. Li."
With that said, the Xie family guard handed over the plate of steaming mutton and patted the back of his head kindly.
Li Jing smiled slightly, took the mutton, took out a silver coin from his arms and handed it over.
"You also bought this sheep. How can Li take advantage of it like this? Please accept the money and thank the third master for Li... My wife does like to eat roast mutton."
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
But in the end, the Xie family guard just pushed away, and without Li Jing, he quickly turned around and strode away.
"Little pot pot, it smells so good."
Chi Meng's silver bell-like voice came from behind. Li Jing looked at the leaving figure of the guard in the distance and smiled before turning back.
"Here, look what this is."
Chi Meng was no longer wearing Miao clothing. She was now wearing a long blue dress made by Han Dynasty, with a coat outside, and her long purple hair was tied into several long braids. But still bound by a silver crown.
Chi Meng's height is considered tall among women of this age, but because she spends all her time with tall people like Li Jing and the Empress, she looks a bit petite. But now she is wearing a Han Chinese long skirt and has purple-red hair. Long hair is really pretty.
A different kind of beauty, no matter how you look at it, it has a shy beauty.
But at this moment, Chi Meng didn't look like a lady at all. When she saw the plate of roast mutton cut into pieces in Li Jing's hand, her eyes lit up, and she pounced on it with a "wow" sound.
She has been eating solid food every day for the past two days, and she is full of food.
Li Jing laughed and sat back on the spread floor, but Chi Meng only followed closely behind, eagerly feeding him a piece before willing to eat it himself.
Although the taste is a bit watery, it is still more delicious than watery pancakes.
The night wind was getting stronger and stronger. Sitting in the tent, Li Jing could feel the sound of strong wind blowing through the tent outside, and the sounds of mules and horses became more exciting because of this.
Chi Meng, on the other hand, seemed careless. Although in the eyes of outsiders, this beautiful young lady was a bit lively, she was still gentle and quiet after all. But in front of Li Jing, she had no need to worry about this.
She was originally like this. If she really became quiet, Li Jing would be a little unaccustomed to it.
"Xiaoguoguo...well...how often do we get separated from these people."
Chi Meng's cheeks were swollen and stuffed with mutton, and her fingers were still a little shiny, but she smiled and narrowed her eyes, looking very cute and naive.
Li Jing put his hands behind his head and lay half on the floor. He just felt extra comfortable. He turned his head to look at Chi Meng and said with a smile: "Why don't we just stay and run business? We can see everything from all over the world." , very happy."
Chi Meng was slightly dumbfounded and frowned.
"That won't work. My little sister has done so much for you to get you to be the King of Qin. If you don't become an emperor and run a business, my little sister will definitely skin you alive."
Li Jing laughed and just blinked.
"Tomorrow, when we arrive in Liaozhou, the Jin army will not be so strict... When we arrive in Liaozhou tomorrow, let's have a bowl of knife-cut noodles. It will be delicious."
Chi Meng's eyes suddenly narrowed with a smile. She actually didn't care about what to eat. Li Jing took care of herself in everything, which made her really happy.
But at this moment, Li Jing straightened up, frowned slightly, and listened.
"What's wrong?"
A look of curiosity appeared on Chi Meng's face, and Li Jing sighed.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to live peacefully tonight..."
…………
At this time, the Xie family guards outside were divided into two groups. One group held torches and patrolled around the barrier surrounded by carriages, while another group was in the camp, preparing to change guard and rest.
The third master, who was slowly eating the mutton, was suddenly stunned. Everyone was puzzled, but then they looked panicked.
In the darkness in the distance, there seemed to be waves of horse hooves, and they were heading here!
The third master threw the mutton back, wiped his hands casually on his body, stood up, jumped lightly, and stood on top of a carriage carrying goods.
I saw torches swaying in the distance, and at the same time, someone was running towards this side quickly.
"Third Master... horse thieves... horse thieves from the brigade!"
The camp, which had almost all rested, was now in a commotion, with people from every tent running out and shouting loudly.
"Xie San, what's wrong? What's wrong?"
The dealer's voice sounded in the distance. The third master turned around and could see some short, fat middle-aged people striding towards this side under the clothes of several maids.
The third master's expression was a bit grim. He could see that all around the camp, there were continuous torches rising, and the sound of horse hooves became more and more loud, as if the carriage under his feet was vibrating.
This person is definitely not an ordinary horse thief!
The sparks from the bonfire were flying everywhere under the strong wind, making everyone's face look pale.
"What a disaster! Xie San, I told you to go back, but you have to go back. Look, look..."
The dealer naturally heard the overwhelming commotion. He felt his legs were trembling, and he couldn't help but started to blame the third master.
Everyone around them kept silent. The situation during the day was like going back to Luzhou. Camping in a place where people were dead everywhere was not necessarily any better!
"Why panic! It's not like we don't have something on our hands! Everyone is relying on the carriage, and I checked what's going on on the other side. The bows don't stop, the crossbows don't stop, we must not let the horse thieves rush in."
I saw the third master standing on the carriage, pulling out a long knife with a loud voice, looking at the panicked banker, and shouted angrily.
After all, he was a capable person. Everyone seemed to have settled down and wanted to disperse.
But at this moment, a whistling sound was heard in the distance, and a black thing was thrown straight into the camp.
I don’t know how strong the man was, but this thing was thrown next to everyone, rolled on the ground a few times, and stayed next to the bonfire.
"...Xiao Wu... This is Xiao Wu!"
Someone came closer, only to see that the thing was a bloody head!
The third master's expression also became startled at this moment.
