A night of silence.
The next day, it was a sunny day again, and Jin Yuniang decided to go into the mountains to collect herbs. For safety reasons, Qin Feng insisted on accompanying her this time. By the way, she called a rat, and together they went into the mountains to collect game and improve their lives.
There is also a little golden eagle - Lightning, who can go with us and help catch prey!
The three of them were well prepared and left the Seven Kills Fort with steel forks, hunting bows and other items. As a result, they met the Xue family caravan again outside the fort.
Yesterday, after completing the transaction with the military households, it was getting late. The Xue family caravan simply camped outside the fort, rested for the night, and set off early this morning, preparing to go to Gushan Fort, sixty miles away.
From Qisha Fort to Gushan Fort, Lianglang Mountain is the only way.
"Sister Yuniang, where are you going?"
"Mr. Xue is well, we are going to the mountains to collect herbs!"
"Oh, then I'll give you a lift. I'm just on my way."
"This... okay, thank you very much!"
'Mr.
Knowing that she was a girl, Jin Yuniang didn't mind all this, just thinking that she was naughty by nature. As for the matter of traveling together, after asking Qin Feng's opinion, she nodded and agreed.
It’s more than thirty miles away. Since there is a car to ride on, why bother walking!
"Sister Yuniang, come here quickly and sit with me."
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome, Sister Yuniang, how do you think about what I said yesterday? My young master looks better than Pan An, is younger and richer, is suave and dedicated... If you agree, you will immediately become the young master of the Xue family. Madam, from now on those who eat well and drink spicy food will enjoy endless glory and wealth!"
'Mr.
Next, the team set off and headed southeast.
…
"Little brother, what do you call me?"
"Qin Feng, may I ask what your uncle is called? How long have you been working in the Xue family caravan?"
"Haha, my name is Liu Dazhuang, a native of Suidezhou. I have been in the Xue family caravan for almost 20 years. I have been driving carts, traveling all over the country, and have been to many places..."
The driver was a middle-aged man with a honest appearance and a simple personality, but he was a bit talkative. He talked endlessly along the way. Taking advantage of the opportunity of conversation, Qin Feng made some insinuations and inquired about the details of 'Little Tutu', and he got the result. Lots of news.
The contemporary Xue family - the head of the family is named Xue Renli. He is smart, capable, and good at business. He started his business with nothing, and earned millions of dollars in less than twenty years. He is respected as: Xue God of Wealth!
Xue Caishen not only has good fortune, but also good luck in love affairs. He has married more than a dozen beautiful wives and concubines in a row. He can be said to be a sure winner in life!
Unfortunately, nothing in life is perfect.
Everything went well for Xue Caishen in other aspects, but he was unhappy with his children. He had more than a dozen wives and concubines, but none of them had any children.
In order to seek an heir, Xue Caishen went around praying to gods and worshiping Buddha, building bridges and paving roads, accumulating virtue and doing good deeds... He spent an unknown amount of money, and finally got a daughter at the age of forty, who naturally regarded her as the apple of his eye.
After getting a daughter in middle age, the wives and concubines had nothing to do, so naturally the Xue family's millions of wealth was inherited by this only daughter.
The problem is that in China, men have been superior to women since ancient times. If the Xue family has a woman inherit the family business, it will inevitably be looked down upon by outsiders. What should we do?
After thinking hard, Xue Caishen decided to raise his daughter as a son. From an early age, he dressed her in men's clothing, learned men's etiquette, and played with boys' things. He also gave his daughter a very unisex name: Xue Jinyu!
There is an old saying: A gentleman is like jade, and he holds the jade in his arms!
It can be seen that Xue Caishen hopes that his daughter will not be inferior to men in ambition and strive to be a "female young master"! '
Xue Jinyu is seventeen years old this year. She is talented and has a great business acumen. This time she traveled with the caravan to gain experience and lay a solid foundation for taking over the family business in the future.
…
'It turns out that you are not born lesbian, but that special factors have caused psychological distortion and confusion in self-gender understanding'... After clarifying the situation, Qin Feng no longer despises this 'little bunny' who goes around flirting with girls. Instead, he felt a little sympathetic.
You were originally a darling girl, but you were forced to become a tomboy. You appear to be charming and unrestrained, and everyone admires you. But who knows your inner pain? How pitiful!
…
The team marched for more than thirty miles, and a large mountain range appeared in front of them, with steep peaks and many mountains. The vegetation was very dense, and the faint chirping of various birds and animals could be heard.
There is a large canyon in the middle, about thirty feet wide, which divides the entire mountain range into two. Looking from a distance, it looks like two giant wolves confronting each other, hence the name: Two Wolf Mountain.
Looking at the mountains in front of him, Qin Feng did not feel the majesty. Instead, he felt a strange feeling: his blood flow accelerated, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt uncomfortable all over.
'No, it's dangerous! '
Qin Feng has a special ability, that is, he can know danger!
Of course, this ability is not innate, but a potential that is stimulated from the body after countless fights and wandering on the edge of life and death many times.
Humans have six senses, and this special ability can be called the 'seventh sense!' '
Before traveling through time, when performing various dangerous missions, Qin Feng relied on his seventh sense to escape death many times, which was quite accurate.
"Ouch-ouch!"
At the same time, the little golden eagle-Lightning soared into the sky and made bursts of rapid chirping sounds, which was obviously a warning.
Qin Feng no longer hesitated, jumped down, ran a few steps quickly to catch up with the silver box truck, and after forcing it to stop, he opened the door: "Little Tutu... No, Mr. Xue, please stop the team in front of us. There is an ambush in the woods, most likely robbers, and it will be dangerous for the team to go further."
"How could there be robbers in broad daylight and clear sky... Oh, I understand, you must have been jealous when you saw me and Sister Yuniang making out, and deliberately came over to cause trouble, haha!"
"Hmph, I don't have time to joke with you. If you don't believe me, come out and see for yourself. Look at the pine forest in front of you and then look at the sky. Do you understand?"
"There's something wrong with the woods and the sky...ah!"
Little Tutu-Xue Jinyu is a smart man. He stuck his head out and took a look, and his expression suddenly changed.
It turns out that there are many flying birds in the mountains, rising and falling from time to time, looking for food in the woods. There are also many flying birds circling over the pine forest in front, but none of them fall down.
What does this mean?
It showed that there were many people hiding in the pine forest, and the birds were so frightened that they did not dare to alight.
There are people hiding in the barren mountains and dense forests. It is obvious that they have bad intentions... Thinking of this, Xue Jinyu immediately became vigilant: "Here comes someone, order the team to stop advancing, rest by the side of the road, and then send someone to explore the way ahead!"
"promise!"
The order was given and the team paused.
Two more clever guys were sent to quietly go to the front to check the situation. After a while, the two guys hurried back, their faces livid with fear!
"Going back to the young master, there is indeed an ambush in the pine forest ahead. It is a large area of darkness. There are at least three to four hundred people, all armed with swords and guns!"
"Oh, can you see where it's coming from?"
"Afraid of being noticed by the other party, we don't dare to get too close, so we can't see the way out!"
The Xue family's caravan has more than a hundred men, and they are equipped with weapons such as bows, arrows, knives and guns. Ordinary thieves would not dare to make a bad idea. Since the other party dares to set an ambush halfway, it must not be an ordinary thief.
It’s not that the Raptors can’t cross the river!
At the same time, shopkeeper Sun got the news and hurriedly came to the car: "Sir, since there is an ambush ahead, let's go back the way we came and take shelter in the Seven Kills Fort!"
"No, our caravan is mainly made up of large vehicles, carrying heavy goods. If we turn around, we will definitely not be able to go fast. Once the robbers catch up, they will eat us like wolves chasing stupid cows. Clean!”
"Then we lost our goods and ran away quickly?"
"It's useless. We have a limited number of horses, and most of them are rogue horses. They can't run fast. Even if we abandon the carriage and run away, we still can't escape."
…
What should I do if I am in a dangerous situation, but I can’t rush out, or I can’t escape?
At the critical moment, Qin Feng came up with an idea and asked the men to surround dozens of carts in a circle and connect them end to end to form a line of defense. A group of people armed with knives, guns, bows and arrows stood inside and were ready.
Since then, the caravan has become a hedgehog. The robbers have no way to attack it and may leave on their own.
"Everyone, please act quickly. Just follow Brother Qin's method and form a circle around the vehicles. As long as the robbers don't come, that's it. If they come, we'll fight them!"
"promise!"
Under the command of shopkeeper Sun, hundreds of clerks worked together to quickly set up a car array and placed Little Tutu-Xue Jinyu's silver box car in the middle to ensure safety.
Next, everyone concentrated and stared in the direction of the pine forest. A quarter of an hour passed without any movement.
Two quarters of an hour passed without any movement.
Three quarters of an hour passed, but there was still no movement.
…
What happened? Could it be that the caravan became alert and the robbers quietly withdrew, or was there some other conspiracy?
Just when everyone was impatient and making wild guesses, a team suddenly rushed out of the pine forest. There were about three hundred people. They were all masked with white sand and brandishing steel knives. The people sitting down were not horses, but heads. Tall camel!
Oops, it's a bandit!
