Grandpa took the three people out of the market and walked north to see how big the shamanistic blockade was.
The four people walked north along the road and saw that there were quite a few pedestrians on the road. However, they did not see the carriage transporting supplies or anything like that. There were some carriages passing by, and they were just carriages with sheds. These were specially designed to pull people, the kind for people to ride on. At this time, we did not have the luxury to use such carriages to pull goods.
"Uncle, there is a checkpoint in front of us. It looks like it should be a ten-man team from a shaman cavalry team."
Wei Wenbin trotted back, and they noticed a checkpoint not far ahead. So Wei Wenbin went forward to inquire about it. He didn't just come back from inquiring about the situation. He didn't dare to rush in, so he could only observe it closely and found that there were not many people at the checkpoint, that is, a team of ten people.
"Well, let's retreat, wait for a carriage to pass by, stop one, and spend some money to find out the news."
My grandfather nodded. He sat on a meadow made of barley by the roadside and pondered for a while. Because he didn’t know how many blockades there were in total, he urgently needed someone to come in from the outside to inquire about the news, and pedestrians Don't think about it. It should be impossible to know from this distance. After all, those who can walk are from short distances. Only those who drive carriages can be from long distances. Only those from long distances can know how many blockades there are. How far is the distance.
"Fight..." Wang Laoliu drove the carriage through three checkpoints and finally entered Erlong Mountain.
This Wang Laoliu is a local here in Erlong Mountain, but he runs a big truck outside for a long time, usually transporting some supplies to the nomadic people in Inner Mongolia. This is also a job that can barely make a living. The most important thing is that such a job is possible There is an unexpected gain, that is, some meat, such as mutton and beef. After all, these nomads have no shortage of meat.
But at this time of year, he doesn't have much work. These nomads will stock up on food in advance, and the animals will stock up on forage in advance, so that they can survive the winter in advance.
Once these nomadic people begin to spend the winter, Wang Laoliu will have nothing to do. At this time, Wang Laoliu will take some beef and mutton home to celebrate the New Year with his wife and children. But this year, there was nothing to do on the way. He was almost home, and there was a damn checkpoint, and there were some people on horseback with guns, making it impossible for him to run away even if he wanted to.
"What a damn unlucky thing, bastard, what a great grandson!" Wang Laoliu was cursing while driving the carriage, his old face was full of tears, he was crying all the way. scold.
He was also very unlucky, because he was carrying some beef and mutton in his car, so he became the focus of these people's interrogation. Moreover, the hands and feet of these interrogators were not clean. The originally good beef and mutton were inspected at three levels. More than half of it was missing, and what was left was enough for him to take home and make a few dumplings.
I originally thought that after working hard for a year, I could bring back some meat and some money with me. This would be considered as an explanation to my family. How can meat eaters have such a good reputation these days, even if they have money? The layers were peeled off.
Wang Laoliu was crying while driving the carriage. Suddenly he saw four people on the roadside, four big and round men. Wang Laoliu was stunned for a moment, and then his heart skipped a beat. This was a disaster. That’s right.
Wang Laoliu cursed secretly in his heart, this is really God's disdain, and he specializes in bullying honest people. He can't keep anything he has this time. He just hopes that these strong men will not kill him. It will be really troublesome if they seek wealth and death. .
"Get out of the way, get the hell out of the way, or I'll kill someone." Although Wang Laoliu was feeling guilty, he knew he couldn't be weak at this time.
He was also running a big car outside. Among other things, he listened to other people talking and chatting. He often heard how to deal with Jie Dao, so he used it now.
He held a whip in one hand to whip the horse, and an iron rod in the other. The iron rod was held in a strange way. It was not held in the hand, but rather as if it was a pistol. I have seen children holding a branch and gesturing for a pistol. Well, it's just held like that. From a distance, you really can't tell whether it's a blunderbuss or not.
This is also where he is smart. When he is far away, he will use it as a blunderbuss to scare people. If he is close, he will just change his hand and fight closely with the iron rod. He doesn't know how to fight, that is, he will use Just hit him hard with an iron rod. Anyway, robbery at this time is also a capital crime. He doesn't have to worry about the officials making trouble for him after accidentally killing someone. If the person he kills by luck is a wanted criminal, the officials will still reward him. Woolen cloth.
My grandfather and four other people saw a carriage approaching and wanted to stop the carriage to inquire about the news ahead. The four of them stood up and wanted to stop the carriage. As soon as the four of them stood up, they saw this The carriage actually accelerated.
Before the four of them could figure it out, they heard the man driving the cart shouting loudly, telling them to get out of the way, and also saying that he wanted to kill people. My grandfather understood immediately after hearing this that this man regarded them as robbers. .
"Master, we are not robbers, we really are not robbers." The black line at Wei Wenbin's end, this is the main road, although no one is passing by now, but it is estimated that there will be people soon. Who is stupid? Dare you block the road and rob someone here? Do you think it's still the old society, or you're just looking for death? The government's crackdown on crime is unprecedentedly strong. Who dares to commit crimes at this time?
"Hey..., aren't you strongmen who block roads and rob?"
Wang Laoliu stopped the car when he was still more than 20 meters away from the four people. He felt that at this distance, they should not be able to see clearly whether he was holding a gun, so he chose this distance to stop the car, and He can also drive the carriage to push through this distance at any time, because the horse also needs a starting distance.
"Don't worry, we are not bandits. How can any bandit dare to rob on the road? Isn't this looking for death?"
When Wei Wenbin saw that the speeding carriage was stopped by the driver, he quickly shouted loudly to Wang Laoliu who was driving the carriage. While shouting to Wang Laoliu, Wei Wenbin walked towards Wang Laoliu's carriage.
"You stop, or I will shoot. If you have something to say, just stand there and say it. Don't come over, or I will shoot you."
Wang Laoliu felt a little more at ease when he heard that these people were not strongmen who blocked roads and robbed people. However, he did not dare to completely believe it, especially when he saw a strong man walking towards him, the alarm bells started ringing in his heart. But he didn't dare to let this man come over. If he saw that he was holding an iron rod instead of a firecracker, Wang Laoliu was not sure that he could beat such a strong man, so naturally he couldn't let Wei Wenbin get close. .
