"I have three more requests."
"carry."
"First, I want a study room where no one will disturb me, where I can think and write letters to contact my colleagues in Xiliang. Also, you are not allowed to restrict my freedom of life. You must meet my reasonable requirements;
Second, for other Daliang merchants, you can let them do hard work or imprison them, but you must not harm them;
Third, my ring was taken away by you. It was a token of love between my wife and I. You must return it to me;
The other things I carry with me, a musket, a fire gourd, a telescope, and a compass, I do not require you to return them to me, but I must keep them well. "
"We allow these requests, but," Kuijin said, changing the subject:
"I would also like to remind you, don't even think about escaping. There are hills on the east, south and north sides here, with ravines crisscrossing them. There is only one way out, and other roads are equipped with deadly traps. To the west is the endless You can get in the sand sea, but you can't get out."
"Someone is coming."
Four men with a height of nearly nine feet and as strong as an ox walked into the living room and shouted in unison like a bell:
"What are the orders from the second master?"
Kui Jin pointed at Song Che: "From today on, you will be Boss Song's personal bodyguards. You will take good care of him twelve hours a day. You must not make any mistakes."
"yes!"
"Okay, it's already late at night. Boss Song, please go back to the guest room and rest."
Four strong men, two in front and two in the back, sandwiched Song Che like a "hamburger" in the middle, staring wide-eyed and making a gesture of invitation.
laugh!
Song Che sneered inwardly, the bodies of the two stupid men who imprisoned me are still in the latrine on Shedao!
He flicked his sleeves and walked out of the living room.
After Song Che walked out of the living room, Guo Shuyun walked to the gilt armor hanging on the wall, touched it gently and asked:
"Kui Jin, Zouping, am I a woman really suitable to be a leader?"
Kui Jin said softly: "Miss, why should you care about what an outsider says? He is just a businessman who puts profit first."
Zouping said: "When General Guo was alive, he regarded his brothers as brothers. A hundred years from now, his subordinates should assist you, young lady. Besides, we all believe that you can lead us to avenge the dead soldiers and civilians of Beiliang."
"Dad..." Guo Shuyun faced the armor and burst into tears.
…
Song Che was taken to the guest room, with a desk, a bed, and not even a pot of tea.
The situation this time was much more dangerous than on She Island. There were four burly men guarding the gate, and their fighting power was definitely stronger than the two on She Island.
Fortunately, he had three months to plan his escape, so he didn't have to worry about it taking a day or two.
"Here is your ring, and a pen and paper for writing letters."
The big man not only brought paper, pens and rings, but also brought a handle of mutton that he had not finished eating in the hall.
Song Che was so hungry that he forced his eyes closed and swallowed the mutton.
It tastes so damn bad!
Four burly men stood at the door, like four walls of flesh, motionless and silent.
"Hey, by the way, what are your names? You might as well tell them so that you can call them in the future." Song Che asked.
The four big men looked at each other and one of them said first:
"My name is Amity Hushabak Anima Urbato..."
Is this a name? This is clearly a sign of the name of the dish!
The second man said: "My name is Kambado Urmihan Saragh——"
"Stop, stop, stop!" Song Che complained: "The train is not even as long as your names, who can remember it?"
The man said: "This is the name of our tribe. It is passed down from generation to generation. My son's name is longer than mine."
Song Che waved his hand, "Forget it, I'll give you a nickname——
You are called the Four of Diamonds,
You are called the Five of Clubs,
You are called Six of Hearts,
You are called the Seven of Spades;
Remember it all, and don’t forget to say yes when I call you. This is a good name that only came about a thousand years later. "
The four big men looked at each other and said nothing, taking it as acquiescence.
"By the way, my personal habit is to drink a glass of milk every morning. I see that your village has a lot of cattle, sheep and horses. It shouldn't be difficult to squeeze some out, right?" Song Che asked.
"Baby face, have you made a mistake? We are your guards, not your servants! We are very kind to you without sending you back to the cell and letting you have food and clothing!"
The one who spoke was the Six of Hearts, and he should be the eldest among the four.
"But your head has promised that he will grant permission if the request is reasonable. I am just like this. I can't think straight without drinking milk for a day."
Song Che walked to the door and winked at the poker foursome, "That's it for now, you can decide what to do."
After saying that, he closed the door with a "pop" sound and fell asleep.
…
Early the next morning.
Song Che was sleeping soundly, and the door of the room opened, circling his clear dream.
"I brought you your milk!"
The Six of Hearts held a large bowl of milk and two scones, and stomped on the table reluctantly.
Song Che turned over and continued to sleep.
"You should get up! Our children here are already up and working at sunrise!" The Six of Hearts shouted loudly.
Song Che covered his ears, "You are really noisy. If I don't get a good rest, I will be in a trance. How can I use my brain when I'm in a trance? Get out of here quickly. No one is allowed to come in and disturb you without my call!"
"You! Hmph... let's see how long you can be so arrogant!"
The Six of Hearts angrily exited the room.
When the door of the room was closed, Song Che tiptoed out of bed and took a sip of the milk. It was indeed freshly squeezed and delicious.
Of course, he didn't like the milk. Instead, he wrote on the milk and roasted it with fire to make a "wordless heavenly book".
He calculated the line spacing of the letter paper and wrote the words "Everything is safe, don't worry" in milk.
He didn't know where he was now. He wanted to tell Xiang'er and the others that they were safe first.
After finishing writing, wait for the milk stains to dry, and then use ordinary ink to write down the matters such as asking them to prepare pig iron, deliberately leaving the word "fire" hidden in the text.
With Nangong Yue's talent and the tacit understanding of many in-depth exchanges, she will definitely be able to see the clues.
Let them make preparations first, and try to escape during this period. If they really can't escape, then they can honestly transport the pig iron.
safe!
