With goals, there is motivation.
After deciding to go to Langya, time soon came to the section of the canal close to Langya.
Xu Yunyan took the two Niu brothers, his sister, and Cui Jin, who claimed to be lonely, toward Langya Qingyuan County.
But on the road, seeing Cui Jin sending away his hired guards and driving such a carriage, even Xu Yunyan couldn't help but have the idea of robbing him.
After Cui Jin had Xu Yunyan's nominal protection, he was so arrogant that he drove his little carriage speeding ahead, wishing he could arrive in Qingyuan County today.
Xu Yunyan said helplessly after catching up with Cui Jin, "Brother Cui, can we be more realistic? Even if we get wings, we won't be able to reach Qingyuan County in one day!"
When Xu Yunyan said this, Cui Jin finally came to his senses, "Don't blame me, sir. Isn't this too happy? It's really my fault. When we get to the county town ahead, I will be the host and treat everyone to a good meal and a drink." Is this good? We are hurrying and hurrying, and we will be in Qinghe County in a short time."
Qinghe County?
This name made Xu Yunyan stunned. His son-in-law was in Qingyuan County, and the front was Qinghe County. Why did Mr. Cui know so clearly the counties on his route?
Although Xu Yunyan had doubts in his heart, he did not doubt Old Man Cui's motives. He followed Old Man Cui hurriedly and slowly, and finally arrived at the Qinghe County that Old Man Cui mentioned before dark.
As soon as he entered the county town, what Xu Yunyan didn't expect was that Old Cui drove his carriage to an inn in Qinghe County with ease.
As soon as the carriage stopped, some waiters came out to greet them, "Are these guest officers working as top managers or staying in hotels?"
"We're staying in a hotel!"
Old Cui said directly, and hearing that the accents of these people were somewhat similar to the accent that Old Cui spoke now, Xu Yunyan's doubts deepened.
It sounds like Old Man Cui has a bit of an accent from this place. Where does he live? Could this really be a problem?
But I still don’t understand. Xu Yunyan thought clearly about his problem. The waiter had already ushered them into the lobby, selected a table, wiped it clean, and asked them to sit down.
Under the arrangement of Old Man Cui, delicious meals were delivered one after another. Now Old Man Cui didn't take anything from the carriage, only a small package on his back.
Although the package was not big, it was very difficult for Old Cui to carry it, and it felt like real money. After all, Old Man Cui gave himself a small package when he was on the boat. The two huge pieces of horseshoe gold inside almost blinded him.
Without thinking about this, after watching the delicious food being served one after another, the two Niu brothers' eyes immediately lit up, and they just started eating here regardless of whether there was anyone else.
Such a performance by the two Niu brothers made Xu Yunyan and Yue'er have appetites, and they were happily snatching away.
After they had had enough wine and food, everyone went to their rooms to rest. Old Man Cui was also very generous and opened four rooms at once.
Xu Yunyan and her sister, Old Man Cui, lived in one room, and the two Niu brothers lived in one room. Old Cui arranged it so well that Xu Yunyan was very curious.
Has he really never been here?
No, why does he know so much about the situation here? It's like returning to your own home.
Xu Yunyan was just thinking here when he suddenly heard the horses in the stable neighing non-stop.
"There's a situation! Does anyone want to attack the war horse?"
Xu Yunyan thought like this, luckily he hadn't rested yet, so he grabbed the sword and opened the window at the back of his room. A few people moved quickly from the second floor to the backyard.
There is indeed a man in black in the stable leading a horse towards the outside. And the horse he is leading is not the group of war horses that Xu Yunyan has been riding, and which group is it?
"The bold thief dares to steal the horse."
After Xu Yunyan shouted for a lifetime, the sword in his hand was unsheathed and he attacked the black shadow.
The black shadow suddenly heard someone shouting, turned around and looked at the oncoming cold light, startled, and immediately rushed towards the backyard gate that had been opened at an unknown time with a rolling gourd.
"Want to leave? You come and leave whenever you want. Do you think we are too simple? What's more, what you stole was my war horse?"
Xu Yunyan shouted, throwing the scabbard in his hand towards the horse thief in the distance.
A "Go!"
The scabbard hit the horse thief's leg. The horse thief immediately staggered and fell to the ground. Xu Yunyan also used this gap to come to him, and the sword in his hand was already placed on his neck.
"Tell me, who are you? Why are you here to steal horses?"
Xu Yunyan didn't get any answer. Instead, the horse thief turned his head to the side forcefully.
"If you want to kill or behead him, it's up to you. At worst, he will be a good man again in eighteen years."
This actually made Xu Yunyan a little surprised. "You, a horse thief, have managed to steal something? Are you coming to this place to steal horses and become ours?"
But as soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, the horse thief didn't say anything. The bustling crowd in the distance had already been driven out from the front. They were the shopkeepers and a few residents of the shop.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? What's going on?"
The shopkeeper who just came out looked at this scene very curiously and asked what was going on.
Xu Yunyan changed into a comfortable position, held the horse thief with a knife and said to him, "I don't know where this horse thief came from. He came to steal my horse and I caught him."
It didn't take long for the horse thief to be kidnapped by Wu Hua Da and brought to the front hall. At this time, the two Niu brothers arrived belatedly.
Looking at the two Niu brothers, Xu Yunyan, who was escorting Yue'er out, he nodded with satisfaction.
They didn't rush out immediately to see what was going on. Instead, they knew how to protect Yue'er. No matter how capable these two people were, it was already commendable that they had this heart.
Following the Niu brothers was Old Man Cui. As soon as Old Man Cui came out, he looked at the horse thief in front of him and shouted directly after he understood what the matter was like.
"This horse thief is so hateful. He actually stole our horses. How can we go on our way? There is no need to report him to the officials. He must be severely punished by the officials."
After Old Man Cui finished speaking, the shopkeeper immediately disappeared and headed towards the county government office in the distance while it was dark.
This made Xu Yunyan even more curious. Is this old man Cui so capable? Isn't it the same as asking a shopkeeper to leave with just one sentence? Isn't it the same as asking a waiter?
