Chapter 1780 Thrilling Xiejiabao ([-])

Qi Ke, Lao Yan, and his team detoured southeast like business travelers. The official road is not only difficult to walk, but even the standard is declining, which is better than Erma Town before the road was built. Easy to get stuck on wheels.

This kind of road, for the convenience of travel, the local people keep livestock at home, and would rather not raise children than live without livestock. If a poor family has a skinny donkey, it is not called poverty, because the donkey can be rented to others to work and earn money at home. money.

The 26 people walked all the way, and when they met passers-by, they saw the envy in their eyes.

It's normal to be envious. How rich people have so many donkeys. Not only are there people riding on them, but there are also donkeys that are specially used to carry things.

Qi Ke has no shortage of donkeys, so he deliberately revealed his wealth so that everyone can ride a donkey on the return journey.

I don't know if it's because of this trick, but in the middle of the afternoon, I was waiting for the wolves who were exploring the way ahead to find a place to camp, and I ran into the robber first.

The trick is not unusual, there is a huge log lying in the middle of the dilapidated road, and I don’t know how it fell here. Anyway, it blocked the narrow mountain road, and it was impossible to get around it by riding a donkey.

It was not only Qi Ke Laoyan and his group who were blocked, but also a caravan and more than ten travelers and mountain people were blocked, bargaining with the people behind the giant tree for road money.

It's a peaceful way to ask for money. Anyway, if you don't give money, you can't leave.

It has been safe and sound since I came out of Fu County, and suddenly I saw a group of robbers, Qi Ke and the group of people came to their senses, and under the cover of the cloak and hood, they stretched their necks one by one to observe what it is that is so brazen to buy road money people.

They listened for a while, but the men didn't understand a single word, but the female spies around them pretended to be locals, they were so lifelike, they could understand a little bit of language, and they were fine for shopping and chatting with people .

Or maybe it was the female spies who came forward to buy dry food at the free market just now, because they can communicate, the men can only be dumb.

With their translators, the men understood what it was all about.

It's too expensive to buy a road.

The group of people standing in front of the giant log, if there was no caravan, they would each pay a few copper coins and go there, but there happened to be a caravan, and the opposite side insisted on taking everyone's money according to the rules of caravan buying road money.

How could these travelers and mountain people who were on their way afford so much, even if they stripped off their bodies, they couldn't make up the money that the caravan had to pay. The caravan agreed to pay, but they had to move the giant tree away.

But the other side refused to let the caravan pass first. The caravan moved slowly. If there was an opening, those travelers and mountain people would take advantage of the loophole and run away, unless the caravan was willing to pay these people.

They were arguing endlessly, and Qi Ke and his group just caught up. Behind them, there were still travelers coming. If they didn't resolve it, more and more people would be blocked.

And the day will be evening, no one can delay it any longer.

The one who robbed the road also had this idea, it will be late, if you can't afford it, just give the money obediently.

"What should I do?" Lao Yan said calmly, sitting cross-legged on the donkey's back like an old fishing man.

"If you want money, you need to die. Let's kill it. Robbery is a felony. Isn't it common for the natives of our tribe to carry knives with them?" Qi Ke's tone was even more indifferent. Sitting with the right leg horizontally in front of the body, it is also a difficult sitting posture.

"okay."

As soon as Lao Yan finished answering, the soldiers beside him ran back on donkeys to deliver orders.

Then they shook the reins and moved forward together.
