Hurry up.
The family was very anxious, and Zhou Xiaozhou didn't want to waste time, so he walked faster this way.
Mainly due to the good road conditions in this area, which is much better than that in Qingshi County, the speed is naturally much faster.
Before dusk, we arrived at Dingwuguan.
Dingwuguan is a major pass, not just a border, because Wu Shengguo and Wenquguo have always had a relatively good relationship, and there has been no war for a long time. This pass has gradually turned into a prosperous city, serving as a commercial link between the two countries.
At the same time, the prosperity of commerce also gave rise to rampant banditry.
Fortunately, there are no large-scale mountain bandits in Wu Shengguo, but there are several famous mountain kings in Wenquguo. Whoever is unlucky enough to encounter them will be in trouble.
"Thank you. How much is it?"
how much?
Zhou Xiaozhou had no experience in charging fees, so he really couldn't tell how much he would charge.
"Give it whatever you want."
The other party really gave it casually. He took a handful of copper coins and gave them to him, then hurried away with his family.
Zhou Xiaozhou counted and found that there were only twelve copper coins. He was speechless.
This is too stingy!
After a day of galloping, the horse was so thin that it was not too much to accept twelve silver coins, so in the end I only gave twelve cents...
Forget it, just think of it as a good thing.
What was speechless was that the car was still in a mess, and they had to clean it up to avoid being scolded by Qiao Xing.
Instead, I found something left behind on the car seat. It was a small bronze mirror with a handle. It must have been played with by a child and it was left behind.
This family was so stingy, so he naturally had no interest in giving them a toy, so he just put it in his arms, cleaned the car, and went out directly.
"How much money did you make?"
Qiao Xing's voice came, "This car is mine, and so is the horse. I will score at least half of the points."
"Twelve coins, I'll give you six coins."
"This is too stingy! Don't."
"That's all I give you."
“People fall into the water and die, and when they come ashore they ask for money.
I might have given him any amount of money before, but now that I'm here, I can't bear to pay anymore.
In the future, you need to negotiate the price with someone first, otherwise it will cause more trouble. "
"Um."
“It’s getting dark, don’t go too far into Wenqu Country, find a safer place to spend the night.
There are really bandits here, so don't be careless. "
"oh····"
"I opened this mountain and planted this tree."
A few bandits actually jumped out on the roadside, with their faces covered and knives and guns in their hands, and they surrounded the carriage.
I really encountered a bandit!
Zhou Xiaozhou stared at these masked men in a daze. When escorting, he really had to get up early and rest early. It was easiest to encounter bandits at dusk, which was the prime time for them to come out for activities.
It's most beautiful to grab a ticket and have a drink.
"Sir, I'm just a poor boy driving a carriage. I've had one meal but no one. I'm one of my own, so please show your respect."
The leader held a long spear in his hand and sneered: "You look well dressed, you must be a rich man. We are robbing the rich and giving to the poor, and we are robbing rich people like you."
Robbing you from the rich and giving to me the poor.
Zhou Xiaozhou said hurriedly: "I'm just driving the car for a wealthy family. A wealthy family needs to be decent, and the servants should be well-dressed. It doesn't mean that I'm a rich man..."
"These clothes are worth just a few bucks if you take them off."
"This horse is not bad and can be sold for a good price..."
"This car is good for warming up over a fire..."
"We are heroes who rob the rich and give to the poor. We want money rather than life. You'd better be wiser, otherwise you can kill them but not bury them."
If you are unlucky enough, you will have to peel off your skin even if you don't die.
The thief does not escape empty-handed, but he can still take off his clothes even if he is penniless.
Once encountered, there is no way out.
Not to mention, Zhou Xiaozhou is considered a rich man now. He has one gold coin and several hundred cash on him, and he absolutely does not want to be robbed.
Two hundred and fifty a month, how long will it take to save?
This is going to cost him his life!
If you don’t have money, why bother with your life?
The bandits were yelling, and one guy stretched out his hand to pull him off the carriage, which made him angry and punched him in the head.
Not to mention, it was so fierce that the masked man fell to the ground with one punch.
Zhou Xiaozhou couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He was indeed very powerful and powerful...
"If you rebel, chop him to death!"
A masked man nearby slashed at him with a knife. With quick eyes and quick hands, he dodged slightly, grabbed the hand holding the knife with one hand, and grabbed the knife.
This guy didn't give it, so he put both hands together, grabbed the handle of the knife tightly, and started pulling each other.
He won't give it, he won't let it go.
The leader thrust a spear in his hand. During the push, Zhou Xiaozhou used the knife to block it. The masked man holding the knife pushed towards the muzzle of the gun. The guy was shot and screamed strangely. He turned around and ran away with his wound.
Zhou Xiaozhou succeeded in seizing the knife and pounced on the masked man who was playing with the gun.
After all, he had practiced swordsmanship, and he still knew a few tricks. I didn't have any sense of power before, and I couldn't even beat a woman. But now I have the power, and when I use it again, I can kill with all my strength, so fast and fierce, that the opponent has to retreat in a hurry.
It used to be just for fun, but now it's serious, it's life.
If you don't want to die, you have to hack your opponent to death, there is no room for negotiation.
Naturally, he didn't want to die here, so he struck very harshly, hitting the opponent twice in succession.
The bandit who was playing with the gun was bleeding and he ran away quickly. The other two had no courage to fight and ran away too.
Zhou Xiaozhou quickly hit his horse and ran quickly.
Qiao Xing in the car chuckled: "I didn't expect you to be so good."
"As a man, you have to do it, and you have to do it even if you don't."
After running for a while, Zhou Xiaozhou breathed a sigh of relief and grabbed a knife, which was not a loss.
He wiped the bloody knife and hid it under the shaft of the car.
"I really didn't expect that you still have some fighting ability, and my aunt is much more relieved.
You have to protect your aunt from now on! "
If Zhou Xiaozhou had some fighting ability, she wouldn't have to hide and hide. She would have more options. Sometimes, if you cooperate with each other, you can also deal with the masters of the world.
"Uh, it's stupid. It was the first time I played it for real. I was so scared that my hands and feet became weak and my whole body was weak. I just managed to survive."
If he hadn't wanted to save his own money, he probably wouldn't have had the courage and ferocity to do so. Faced with five bandits armed with weapons, he would have been so cowardly that he just allowed himself to be asked and taken, just to save his life.
"How about you take my aunt as your teacher?"
"Uh...what's your cultivation level?"
"Xuanjie."
"I'm not already an earth-level person, so how can I become a disciple of Xuan-level people?"
"Bah, who do you think you are?"
Zhou Xiaozhou really didn't want to have a woman as his teacher, not to mention he felt that Qiao Xing was not good enough to be his teacher.
"At least I have to find someone of heavenly rank to be my master..."
"You are yawning like a lazy toad."
Qiao Xing thought for a while and said, "Maybe it is possible that my ancestors were heaven-level masters, but unfortunately they have been missing for decades.
If he comes back anytime, your aunt will introduce him to you. "
"Thank you, aunt. Do you have to call me uncle or uncle or something?"
