Chapter 140 Who is the bait

Chapter 140 Who is the bait
"That... That kid named Jiang Da, come here!"

Outside Chaoge City, outside a certain mountain depression more than forty miles away, the Xiang family's convoy stopped slowly, and the guard in charge of escorting the convoy, Xiang Da, kept roaring at Jiang Da, who was in charge of leading the way, and greeted him come over.

Jiang Da, who was trotting all the way, looked at the guard with disdain.

At this moment, he even wanted to explode in advance, and cut this guy who looked down on him to death
But although Jiang Da is a fool in Liu Long's mouth, he is still a greedy person after all. Before a greedy person succeeds, he can often suppress his desire better.

Jiang Da is undoubtedly such a person.

After the extremely short-lived anger, Jiang Da took a deep breath, and then put on a simple and honest smile.

"Guard Xiang, what's the matter with you, haven't we just rested for a long time, why are you tired again?"

"A certain family is not tired!" Xiang Da looked at Jiang Da who was so humble to him in front of him, and the disdain on his face became more serious, "A certain family just wanted to ask you, what road are you leading!"

"Ah, here." Jiang Da looked at Xiang Da, who was already a bit suspicious, and quickly changed his expression, making his expression more serious.

"Don't worry to the guard, haven't we already agreed on this?
This time we are going to Huai County to find help, but we will definitely pass by the place where the bandits gather. They... They will not let us go to Huai County so happily.

Isn't this. You have to give some benefits before you can let it go? "

Although Xiang Da's sudden caution made Jiang Da look a little bit wrong, but he didn't change because of this problem.

Because he knew very well that this matter already had an answer.

Sure enough, Na Xiangda couldn't help frowning after hearing these words, and then asked Na Jiangda again with a hesitant tone.

"Here. This is the place where you agreed to trade?"

I don't know why, after Jiang Da heard this sentence, he always felt that Xiang Da's expression in front of him had changed again, as if his eyes had become more cautious.

But Jiang Da was originally heartless, and now he was completely dazzled by interests and desires, and he didn't know what he should do for a long time.

He even found a reason for Na Xiangda.

I think it's because Xiang Da heard the names of those bandits who almost slaughtered Chaoge County, and felt a little nervous and scared
"Guard Xiang, don't worry, although the thieves are inside this time, the county magistrate has already told them that we will work together in Chaoge in the future, and we will all be Paoze in the future!
Hahahahaha."

Jiang Da seemed to want to make himself speak more naturally, and laughed out loud after he finished speaking.

Although his smile was very fake, Xiang Da still didn't expose him, but just nodded silently, and let everyone push the cart and continue walking forward.

But just in case, he still asked.

"This mountain depression doesn't look like a reliable mountain depression. How can I remember that the inside of this mountain depression is not connected?"

As the countable, or the only countable family in Chaoge County, this Xiang family is the real local leader in Chaoge County.

As a guard, Xiang Da didn't dare to say anything else, at least he was not inferior to those thieves with his understanding of Chaoge County and the surrounding terrain.

He clearly remembered that this mountain was not a mountain with two sides. On the contrary, there was only one exit here.

In other words, those thieves have probably been waiting here for a long time. If they go in, if these people really have something on their minds, they just need to block the entrance, and they won't even have to run.
Seeing that Xiang Da's eyes became more and more cautious and entangled, Jiang Da's mind became more and more irritable.

He already hated this guy so much, the endless explanation made the anger in his heart extra bright.

Therefore, on Jiang Da's smiling face, there was still a murderous look in his eyes.

He has silently decided that when he enters the mountain col and starts to act, he must make this guy who kept asking him so hard die a terrible death!
It's hard to make him want to die!

The killing intent in his heart kept rising, but at this moment he still tried his best to show more smiles on his face.

"You are right to the guard, there is indeed only one exit here, isn't this for our peace of mind?
After all, guard Xiang, you also know that we didn’t fight them this time, if there is any problem, why don’t we just run away?”

After Na Jiang Da said this, he seemed to be afraid that Xiang Da would continue to question him imperfectly, so he simply grabbed Xiang Da's arm and hurried forward.

"Guard Xiang, let's not waste time, it's getting late.

After clearing up this matter, we still have to pack up and continue on our way. If it takes too long, it won't be a matter of our county magistrate.

Hurry up, hurry up and write."

Jiang Da, who was full of urgency, directly pulled Xiang Da's arm and walked forward. At this moment, Jiang Da, who was quite anxious in his heart, didn't realize that this time, Xiang Da didn't look disgusted either. Kick him away.

I didn't even realize that I would listen to him and drag him away very smoothly.
Until everyone entered the mountain depression, they got their wish and saw hundreds of thieves.

The thieves who had really seen blood were not only more numerous than these caravans of the Xiang family, but also seemed to be more different in their aura.

Although they were even thinner and dressed in ragged clothes, they didn't have many decent weapons in their hands.

But the bloodthirsty and fierce eyes seemed to prove that none of these people were good.

Even if it was just a one-time fight, the bandits who have actually seen blood are completely different from ordinary refugees.

Similarly, when Xiang Da saw these hundreds of people, the way he looked at Jiang Da finally changed.

"Jiang Da, you didn't say that they have hundreds of people, it doesn't look like they are here for business!"

Accompanied by Xiang Da's scolding, Jiang Da threw Xiang Da's arm away, and then retreated in another direction under the escort of dozens of other "yamen servants".

That was the location of the entrance, and at the same time his crazy laughter was heard by everyone.

"Of course we're here to do business, and what we do is a business with no capital!"
