Chapter 130
Originally, Lin Ji planned to stay in Qingyang County for a few days.

But after seeing what happened to Lu Cong, he no longer had such thoughts.

After arriving at the county government office, he soon saw Guo Yi who had heard the news.

From Guo Yi's mouth, I learned that Zhong Xiaoyan seemed to have received news from her family some time ago, and then resigned and left.

In today's county, only Guo Yi is left to preside over the overall situation.

Fortunately, Liangzhou is still stable, and Qingyang County is not too far from Liangcheng, so there is not much trouble.

As for Lu Cong, he can only be blamed for his bad luck.

"In that case, I'm relieved." After learning about the situation, Lin Ji was about to leave.

"Can't you stay for a while?"

"I'm on business, so I can't delay." Lin Ji prevaricated.

He used the excuse of going to Xiangzhou on business.

After leaving the county government office, he politely declined Guo Yi's offer of sending him off, and Lin Ji continued heading south alone.

……

What happened in the capital eventually radiated to every corner of the Kyushu in the Central Plains.

The Great Qin Jiuzhou, which was already in chaos because of the destruction of the Demon Suppressing Tower, has clearly escaped the control of the imperial court.

This kind of separation is not an actual rebellion, but in the hearts of the common people, the prestige of the Great Qin court has plummeted.

Coupled with the overt and covert propaganda and agitation of various sects and aristocratic families.

Now in the eyes of the common people, it has reached the verge of a dynasty change.

This is the turmoil caused by the dragon veins.

It is a turmoil that is not handled well, and Daqin will be destroyed forever.

The first year of Shengyuan.

The ninth day of October.

On the official road from Liangzhou to Xiangzhou, a convoy is slowly moving forward.

This is a caravan composed of ten trucks and two carriages, and the flag of 'Baili' is hung in front of the sedan chair of the carriage.

Baili Escort Bureau, a well-known bodyguard bureau in Liangzhou, also has a bit of face in Jianghu, so it is often hired by caravans to travel between Liangzhou and other places.

There was light snow in the sky, and the snowflakes melted after falling on people, and it was not yet time for the sky to freeze.

The guards and coachmen were all wet.

Some people secretly complain that the sky is not open, and it snows in October.

There were also people who sneaked, raped and played tricks, and sat quietly on the carriage to escort the goods, making the burden on the already hard-working old horse a bit heavier.

There are also those who are exhausted and just walk forward with their eyes closed. Every few steps, they have to shake twice, barely open their eyes to look ahead, and then close them again.

Dart betting has never been an easy job.

Two carriages were escorted in the middle of the convoy.

The carriage at the back is more delicate, and there are paper-cuts pasted on the paper-pasted windows. It is a lifelike little rabbit, which is quite lively under the dim candlelight in the sedan chair.

The carriage in front was a little old, and there was always a "squeak, squeak" sound when it was moving, and it seemed that there was something wrong with the wheels.

In front of the sedan chair, a young man with black hair mixed with some white hair was leaning against the front of the car, with the whip in his hand resting on the buttocks of the old horse pulling the cart. Eyes closed, half awake.

Suddenly, the wheels ran over a stone, causing the carriage to jolt.

The young man was awakened suddenly, looked around and saw that there was nothing abnormal, so he was about to close his eyes and rest.

But at this moment, the door curtain of the car was lifted.

It was a middle-aged man dressed as a housekeeper.

"Mr. Lin, where are you?"

"Leaving Liangzhou soon." Lin Ji took out a map from his pocket, glanced at it twice, and said with a yawn.

As he spoke, Lin Ji turned his head to look at the middle-aged man in the sedan chair.

Manager Wu of the Express Chamber of Commerce.

After leaving Qingyang County that day, Lin Ji went all the way south, taking the official road, and happened to meet the convoy of the Express Chamber of Commerce.

So he recommended himself.

After taking care of several bodyguards in Baili Bodyguard Agency, he successfully became a temporary driver and bodyguard of the Express Chamber of Commerce.

On the way to Xiangzhou, I am not alone anymore.

Steward Wu saw that Lin Ji didn't seem to want to talk, so he didn't bother him any more. He just asked Lin Ji to stop the car, and he left the sedan chair and walked towards the carriage behind.

Come to the car with the rabbit paper-cut.

"Miss, it's getting late, do you want to find a place to camp? It's not easy for the brothers to walk for a day in the snowy weather of October."

The car window was pushed open, revealing the true face of the owner inside.

She is a beautiful girl in her early 30s, with red phoenix eyes and a natural charm.

There was also a bit of fatigue on her face, even if she was sitting in the sedan chair, the journey for several days was not easy after all.

"Just do as you said." Cheng Meifeng pondered for a moment, and then said, "Give some rewards to the brothers."

"Miss, you can't spend money in this wild country."

"It's not like I've been in this wilderness all my life. My subordinates have worked so hard, so I can't treat them badly. Just do as I say."

"Yes." Steward Wu replied.

The convoy quickly found a flat place to camp, and Manager Wu also arranged for people to distribute money to everyone one by one.

One tael of silver per person.

Even Lin Ji, a temporary partner, was not left behind.

One tael of silver is not too little for ordinary people.

A month's ration for a family of three is only three or five taels.

Lin Ji thanked him and put away the money.

Then he found some firewood, secretly used spiritual energy to remove the moisture, and piled it in front of him to light a fire.

Fires had already started to be lit everywhere in the camp, but because of the snow and humidity, many people came to Lin Ji to borrow fire.

All of a sudden, the convoy was lethargic after driving for a day, and finally dissipated a little.

After helping others light the fire, Lin Ji unpacked his luggage.

I took three sesame seed cakes that I had prepared earlier, and prepared bottles and jars filled with pepper, cumin, salt and other ingredients.

Pierce the biscuits with branches and put them on the fire, use the Tiangang sword as a dagger, and cut a few knives on the biscuits to taste.

Brush the oil first, and then sprinkle the seasoning after the aroma is roasted.

After a while, the aroma of roasted buns spread throughout the camp.

The food in the convoy is just a simple big pot of stew, plus dry food that has been frozen hard.

In contrast, Lin Ji's baked buns are really a dimensionality reduction blow.

Some people couldn't help their greed and came to ask for it, but Lin Ji ruthlessly refused.

Just kidding, my biscuits cost a fortune.

You and I are strangers, want to eat my cake?no way!
Someone tried to intimidate Lin Ji by virtue of his size and might, but he kicked him on the ground and couldn't get up.

After a while, someone came to Lin Ji again.

"Mr. Lin."

"Steward Wu, sit down." Lin Ji showed a perfunctory smile.

Steward Wu curled up and sat beside Lin Ji.

The wind was a little strong at night, and the fire in front of us was crooked.

The exhalation between the words is full of white gas.

Seeing Lin Ji ignoring him and just eating the baked buns by himself, Guanshi Wu felt a little speechless in his heart.

But business matters.

"Mr. Lin, are you a monk?"

Hearing this, Lin Ji glanced at Guanshi Wu.

"what's up?"

Steward Wu pursed his lips, almost meaning something.

"I asked just now. A few dozen miles ahead will be the end of the Qingshan Mountains."

"That's right, a line of sky for thirty miles, after a line of sky, it is the boundary of Xiangzhou."

 Ask for a ticket!
