"You guys with knives! Why can't you beat the guy with a stick?!" Mr. Zhao was about to cry. Looking at the guard who fell in front of him, he asked with a tearful voice.
The guard bared his teeth and covered his chest, panting for a long time before saying: "...It's too strong, it's really too strong! Master, what are you still doing here? Run away!"
When Mr. Zhao heard this, he saw that the seven or eight guards with swords in front of him were beaten so hard by three strong men that they could not hold their heads up. He felt that he had spent so much money over the years, but he had raised a bunch of trash.
But he regretted it, so Mr. Zhao hurried to the guard in front of him and said: "Quick, come and drive the carriage, I...I can't drive a horse."
When the guard heard this, he climbed onto the carriage, then slashed the horse's butt with the back of his knife, shouting: "Fight!"
The horse neighed in pain and was about to run with its four hooves. At this time, only a roar was heard: "Where to go!"
Then Mr. Zhao saw a black-faced strong man rushing over with a long wooden stick that had cuts everywhere in his hands. When he was in front of him, he saw the black-faced strong man kicking his feet and leaping away. The wooden stick in his hand fell down with a 'wu' sound, and the car shaft was smashed with a 'bang' sound.
Over there, Zhu Di knocked down the two guards with a sweeping sweep, and then hit each of them with a stick. The two guards dropped their steel knives in pain.
Zhu Di had quick eyes and quick hands. He threw away the stick and stepped forward to pick up two steel knives. He saw him slashing at the two people on the ground with both steel knives.
The two men were so frightened that they hurriedly ran away. Zhu Di was about to chase and kill them, but saw the two men running away without looking back.
So Zhu Di threw the steel knife in his right hand at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was fighting against three, "Dad, take the knife."
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw this, he immediately threw the wooden stick in his hand at the three guards in front of him. When the three people blocked the wooden sticks, Zhu Yuanzhang quickly stepped forward and caught the steel knife, and then shouted: "Get out!"
This sound was like the roar of a dragon and the roar of a tiger, which shocked the sword-wielding guards in front of them to retreat in fear.
The guards looked at each other and heard one of them say: "These three strong men are really powerful. We can't defeat them without knives in their hands. How can we defeat them now that they have knives in their hands?"
"It's important to save your life. Mr. Zhao's life is not our own life after all."
"You're right, let's go!"
"You heroes, I am honored to meet you today. I will leave Master Zhao to you."
After saying that, the guards turned around and ran away without even saying hello to Mr. Zhao.
Mr. Zhao was so stunned when he saw this scene that he cursed angrily: "A bunch of ungrateful people! Despicable pigs and dogs! It's my fault that I provide you with good food and drinks every month...Pfft!"
Before Mr. Zhao could finish speaking, Zhu Zhanji kicked him in the face. Mr. Zhao immediately flipped into the car, and then another woman's scream came from the car.
When Zhu Zhanji glanced at him, the guard who was driving just now turned pale with fright and asked hurriedly: "Can I get out of here?"
Zhu Zhanji hesitated for a moment and finally said: "Okay! Leave the knife."
The guard quickly threw the steel knife in his hand to the ground, then ran away, chasing the guards who ran away in front.
At this moment, all of Mr. Zhao's guards had fled, leaving only a messy scene.
Zhu Zhanji picked up the steel knife, pointed the tip of the knife at Mr. Zhao and said, "Get out."
Mr. Zhao was so frightened that he trembled all over and hid in the carriage and did not dare to come out. In the end, Zhu Zhanji dragged him out and threw him to the ground.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di each picked up two knives and came over. At this time, Zhu Zhanji said: "Grandpa Taizu, Grandpa Taizong, let those guards go. Will they bring people from the government to trouble us?"
"Yes! Yes!" Mr. Zhao hurriedly said after hearing this: "They will definitely do it. If these three heroes let me go, I will definitely be able to quell this matter when I go back!"
'呛啷' '嗗呲'
As soon as Master Zhao finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang chopped off his head with a knife. Blood spurted out and the head fell to the ground. Master Zhao's headless body twitched a few times, and then fell to the ground with a 'plop'.
Zhu Yuanzhang wiped the blood on the knife with his sleeve and said calmly: "Those guards don't know how to use a knife, otherwise they wouldn't be able to beat us with three wooden sticks."
At this time, Zhu Di patted Zhu Zhanji on the shoulder and said: "The movements of those guards using knives are just like using hoes. They are clearly untrained. It is obvious that this master is using farmers to cover his appearance. After these people go back, 80% of them are not I will go to the government."
"That's right." Zhu Yuanzhang added, "But the premise is that Mr. Zhao cannot go back."
Zhu Zhanji suddenly realized that, indeed, his experience was still far behind that of Taizu and Grandpa Taizong.
'呲拉'
Zhu Yuanzhang split open the carriage with a knife, only to hear a piercing scream, and then saw two charming women hugging each other tightly and crowded in the carriage.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang and the others only glanced at the two women, and then started searching other places in the carriage.
"Three...three heroes, spare your lives..."
"Please three heroes, please let us go..."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the two women in front of him, who were probably fifteen or sixteen years old, and asked: "Who are you from this master?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang asked this question, he had already tightened his grip on the handle of the knife and could kill them all with one strike at any time.
When the two women heard this, they cried quickly and said, "We are the concubines that Mr. Zhao bought from Huacheng."
"Oh?" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't believe it, but asked: "Where is the deed?"
One of the women said, "Mr. Zhao put him in the box." After saying that, the two women quickly got out of the way, revealing a large wooden box at the back of the carriage.
At this time, Zhu Zhanji had already found the key from Mr. Zhao, and immediately stepped forward and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Grandpa Taizu, the key."
"Open." Zhu Yuanzhang said.
Zhu Di on the side said to the two women: "Come down."
When the two women heard this, they were very reluctant, but they did not dare not to get off, so they had to hold hands and walk out of the carriage.
When they saw Mr. Zhao's separated body, they were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they leaned their heads together and did not dare to look at Mr. Zhao again.
Zhu Zhanji immediately got into the carriage and opened the wooden box with the key. Then he turned around with surprise on his face and said: "Grandpa Taizu, Grandpa Taizong, silver, a box of silver!"
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were also surprised when they heard this. This feeling was even happier than when they were emperors and heard that there was an extra ten million taels of annual income in the treasury.
"This is the deed." When Zhu Zhanji came out, he actually had two deeds in his hand.
Zhu Yuanzhang took the deed, glanced at the words on it, and asked the two women: "Who's name is Qiluo?"
The slightly thin oval face on the left responded in a low voice: "That's me."
Zhu Yuanzhang said to another woman: "Then you are Yun Luo?"
Another girl with a round face nodded and said, "Yes."
Zhu Yuanzhang asked: "Who else is at home?"
Qi Luo and Yun Luo shook their heads, and Yun Luo said: "We were sold to a craft shop when we were ten years old. We have no family for a long time."
Zhu Yuanzhang asked again: "Are you familiar with Huacheng?"
Qiluo and Yunluo nodded and said, "We are familiar. We grew up in Huacheng."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, and then said to Zhu Zhanji: "Zhanji, take out one hundred taels of silver."
Zhu Zhanji immediately took out one hundred taels of silver. Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at Qiluo and Yunluo and said, "Give it to them."
Although Zhu Zhanji was puzzled, he still sent one or two hundred silver to the two women.
Seeing this, the two women quickly backed away, only to hear Yun Luo say: "The two young ladies only ask the three masters to spare my life, how dare you ask for money?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "This is not for free. I have your deed here. I want you to go to Huacheng to work for me. If you do it well, I will not hesitate to reward you. If you don't do it well... If you have the deed here, I will enter." The city will kill you, and the government will do nothing to stop me."
The two women were startled when they heard this, and then asked in a trembling voice: "I wonder what the master wants us to do?"
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "It's nothing. I just want you to use this money to open a small shop in Huacheng, and help me buy some oil, salt, soy, vinegar and rice noodles from the mountains every month. By the way, send any news to the mountains."
The two women looked at each other, and then Qiluo said: "If you can spare my sister's life, don't say these things. Even if you promise me with your body, I dare not refuse. It's just that this purchase is easy, and I, two weak women, How can I send it to the mountain?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "It doesn't matter. Then you only need to bring people to deliver the things here, and someone will pick them up in the mountains."
The two women felt relieved. They were originally used as concubines, mistresses, and playthings for people to buy, sell, and give away. They were doing things for everyone. Moreover, what Zhu Yuanzhang asked them to do made them more powerful than selling their bodies. Much easier to accept.
Zhu Zhanji on the side also understood at this moment that Grandpa Taizu was secretly checking for informants in the city and gathering information?
"Yes, the master has ordered that my two sisters will take care of it, but this place is more than two hundred miles away from Huacheng..." Yun Luo said hesitantly after taking the one hundred taels of silver from Zhu Zhanji.
Zhu Yuanzhang turned to Zhu Di and said: "Call Zhu Youxiao down, and then call Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Yijun, and Zhu Changluo to help, and ask them to repair the carriage overnight tonight. If they can't repair it tonight, they will continue to be whipped tomorrow."
Why not call him Zhu Houcong? Because his leg was broken by Zhu Di and he is still recovering in bed.
"Yes." Upon hearing this, Zhu Di immediately turned around and hurried back to Gushan. Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Zhanji stayed behind. They buried Mr. Zhao's body first, then took care of the scene, and moved the silver box out of the carriage. , said to the two girls: "You will spend the night here tonight, and I will send you back to the city tomorrow morning."
"Yes, sir." The two women responded immediately after hearing this.
Then Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Zhanji carried the silver box and walked to a tree and sat down. The two women there were a little restrained and scared at first, but when they saw Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Zhanji sitting there, they felt domineering. , completely unlike a bandit who robbed homes and homes.
So the two women whispered a few words to each other, then stood up and walked over with blushing faces.
'锵'
But before the two women could get closer, Zhu Yuanzhang swung the steel knife across his face and said with a cold light in his eyes: "What are you doing?"
The two girls were startled, and Qiluo quickly said: "Master, don't get me wrong, we...we want to come over and serve you two masters."
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, the cold light in his eyes dimmed, and then he said calmly: "Go back, and you are not allowed to take a step closer without an order, otherwise you will not be killed."
The two girls felt a chill in their hearts when they heard this. They quickly gave up the idea and returned to the carriage to sit down quietly.
In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji, used three log sticks made by Zhu Youxiao to get the first pot of gold on their new entrepreneurial journey.
