The safety and comfort of traveling through farming

Chapter 189

"Uncle An, what did that kid ask you to do?" The aunt who was crushed by Fu Lei quietly turned around and looked at the copper coins in the driver's hand.

The coachman slowly stuffed the copper coins into his sleeve pocket, then put his hands on his ears, pretending not to hear what the old lady said, and asked, "Fat girl, what are you talking about? Speak up, I didn't hear clearly!"

The aunt rolled her eyes, put on her basket and walked towards the village. As soon as she left, the old coachman climbed into the car with his head shaking, and drove the car in the opposite direction—to his own home.

The sister-in-law stopped after walking a few steps, reached out to touch the broken piece of silver that Fu Lei gave him in her pocket, looked at the back of the coachman, stood there for a while, and finally shook her head and sighed, speeding up her pace. The direction of home went.She doesn't have the time to meddle in other people's affairs, so let that kid learn a lesson again!
Besides Fu Lei and Lin Bajin, Fu Lei saw that persuasion was ineffective - Lin Bajin didn't even bother to say a word to him, insisted on leaving, and after exhausting his patience, he simply planned to use force to make him submit.

There is not much difference in age between them, and their strength is similar. The only difference is that Fu Lei has practiced with Fu Shi for a while. Don't underestimate the difference. damn.

However, even if he could defeat Lin Bajin, he would not be able to transport such a large living person back home. Besides, Lin Bajin would not wait obediently for him to drag him, and he could not handle it with a single hand. Lin Bajin was knocked unconscious.As a result, a weird situation was formed. Lin Bajin was struggling forward with his burden on his back, while Fu Lei was pulling his clothes from behind and dragging him back vigorously. I was so tired that I collapsed on the side of the road and stopped.

Fu Lei gasped and said, "Bajin, stop making trouble, let's go back! Oh, I'm exhausted and thirsty..."

Lin Bajin was also panting from exhaustion, and said angrily: "Who, who asked you to follow, you, you are idle and do nothing, what's your business, ah?"

"Let's go back to the place where we got off the car just now, ahem..." Fu Lei spat, "Immortal..."

By this time, no one from the family had come to look for them. He was already sure that he had been tricked by that old coachman, so he had no choice but to go back by himself.

However, he came out to go to the market, and he didn't bring a torch, so he couldn't make a torch to illuminate it. If he only relied on the small crescent moon in the sky, it would be almost impossible to rush back to Rongshu Village, after all, it was a distance of ten or twenty miles.

Fortunately, they are no more than five miles away from the place where they got off the bus. If they go back the same way, they can return to Ping'an Village in half an hour. It is better to lay the floor in the open air.

Lin Bajin replied impatiently: "Go and do it yourself!"

After speaking, he stood up again holding the burden, and continued walking forward under the dim moonlight.If it wasn't for Fu Lei's delay, he might have arrived in Qingfeng Town by now!

"Why don't you listen to advice?!"

"Did I ask you to persuade me? Dogs take mice, mind your own business!"

Fu Lei felt that he had done his best, put aside his "business", ran so far with Lin Bajin, and tried to persuade him for so long, but he didn't know that the other party didn't appreciate it at all. His temper returned, and he pointed at Lin Bajin. Bajin's nose asked: "I'll ask you one last time, will you go back?"

Lin Bajin slapped his hands away and continued walking.

"I don't know good people!" Fu Lei took a sip, turned around and walked in the opposite direction.

After walking a certain distance, he heard someone talking in the distance, and vaguely saw a reflective object - a long knife!

Ordinary peasants have already finished their meal and are ready to rest. Who would come out in the dark to wander around, let alone come out with weapons... At the end of last year, he followed Fu Shi and experienced a bandit robbery. He also had the experience of being robbed. Faced with this situation, Fu Lei relied on his intuition to slide the opponent into the enemy's camp.

Here is a road that leads to the end. As long as the other party keeps moving forward, they will meet him soon.He hurriedly stooped, and walked cautiously to the farmland by the roadside.At this time, winter wheat had been planted in the field, but there were still a few stacks of straw on the side of the road that would not be collected in the future. He hid himself behind the haystacks, held his breath, and looked at the direction of the sound.

There should be at least four people who came, because he heard four different voices, all of them were men in their prime, and they seemed to be chatting casually about what they had eaten and the wine they drank after eating and drinking.

A short and strong man with a loud voice waved a long knife "haha" and said with a smile: "The things at the bottom of the mountain are still delicious. That kid, Mao Boy, has been studying for a long time, and the things he makes are still not as good as Aunt Xu's... Lao Qi, you Say, what you said before is called, um, the gentleman is far from the kitchen, right?"

"It's Junzi who cooks far away..." a man with a hoarse voice interjected.

He was interrupted by another tall and thin man in the middle of his speech: "That's almost what it means! Anyway, that's it, cooking is a woman's business... Oh, I'm a gentleman, we're bandits !"

Fu Lei's heart skipped a beat, and he tightened his grip on the straw in his hand—a bandit? !

"Fourth, keep your voice down, lest others can't hear you or something?"

"Afraid, afraid of a ball!" The other stammered: "Who, who will listen, hear this big night! You are too, too timid, you, you are just like a hairy child." , chirp, chirp, chirp crookedly, like a girl..."

The short and strong man laughed and said, "Isn't that right, old seven, what are you afraid of? Who else is there besides us on the road this night! It doesn't matter if someone is there, I will kill him!"

As he spoke, he waved the scimitar in his hand again, making a chopping gesture.

"Third brother, it's not that I'm timid, but I just feel that it's not peaceful recently..."

The short and strong man said indifferently: "Oh, old seven, we bandits don't care if the peace is not peaceful, we can only survive if it is not peaceful!"

"Third brother, don't you think there are fewer caravans recently? We haven't opened for a few days. I think what Lao Qi said is a bit interesting..."

The four people were talking, and walked slowly past where Fu Lei was. Fu Lei wiped the sweat from his forehead, thinking that this is really dangerous. Fortunately, he hid in time, otherwise he might be killed. It's not sure if the short and strong man was chopped off!

The Daqingshan area is famous for its many bandits, "One hundred thousand Daqingshan, one thief's den in a hundred steps", and the bandits here are notoriously fierce, and there are many people who are ruthless. He was so punished that he didn't dare to mention the word "bandit" lightly.

However, Fu Lei had heard a lot of legends about bandits' bravery not long ago, because Fu Yin, the ancestor of the Fu family in Rongshu Village, did this business before settling in Rongshu Village!
Fu Yin was originally a private soldier of a feudal lord, but was disliked by the chief because he was half of foreign blood.He didn't want to be cannon fodder all the time, so he took advantage of the chaos to escape from the barracks, and after going around a few places, he joined the most powerful Qingshan village in Daqingshan.

At that time, it was at the end of the Great Success of the previous dynasty. The princes, vassals, clan relatives, relatives, and family members, all powerful or well-established forces split into more than a dozen forces of different sizes in order to compete for the throne. Neighboring countries also took the opportunity to send troops to attack. , internal and external troubles, the empire is at the end of its strength, showing signs of troubled times.

The struggle between all parties has intensified, and ordinary people have suffered a lot from it, and the people are in dire straits.As a result, many civilian armed forces appeared in various places in Dacheng, occupying land one after another as kings, announcing their separation from the rule of the nobility.Qingshanzhai also took the opportunity to kill a group of "corrupt officials" in Nanshan County at that time, and then "followed the public opinion and raised the pole", relying on Daqingshan to develop its power, and faintly became a prince.

Of course, the power of Qingshanzhai was recruited by the current Daqi royal family in the end. Back then, the village owner also became one of the founding fathers of Daqi, and even won the hereditary title of Marquis of Qingshan.

The reason why Fu Lei heard this story was because Fu Shi refused to continue doing business with Fu Quan. Fu Quan said with emotion at the time: "Your cousin's temper is similar to that of our ancestors, and he will be safe if he is a little rich. Back then, the ancestors The old man is the second-in-command of Qingshan Village. After being recruited, he was also the deputy general of the village owner, but he quit as the deputy general after a short period of time. He said that the reason why he became a deserter was to live a comfortable life someday. I don't want to scramble and fight all day long, I just want to live a happy life with my wife and children. Isn't that what your cousin is like!"

Thinking of this, Fu Lei murmured softly: "Bandits are really incomparable with bandits. The current bandits...well, Lin Bajin is ahead!"

Fu Lei turned around and ran towards the field, made a big circle and ran out of sight of those people, then ran wildly all the way, and finally caught up with Lin Bajin who was resting on the side of the road.

"Ba Jin, hurry up and hide!" Fu Lei pulled him to hide in the field: "There are bandits behind!"

"..." Lin Bajin looked at him and said nothing, Bandit, what are you kidding? !There are not even a ghost on the road at night, what kind of bandits come out to rob at night?Even if they came out to rob at night, they should be robbing villages!

"I'm telling you the truth, there are bandits behind!"

Lin Bajin sighed.To be honest, after most of the day, the anger in his heart because of being poached has almost disappeared.For the first time today, he said calmly: "Fu Lei, you don't have to persuade me. The reason why I want to leave is not only because you and He Lian are engaged, but also because I have other things to do. Don't you You used bandits as an excuse, so go back yourself!"

"I didn't make it up, I really saw bandits behind me!"

"Okay, there are bandits, so I have to leave quickly!" Lin Bajin stood up and grabbed the burden, and continued walking slowly after speaking.

Fu Lei pushed him from behind: "Hurry up, there are bandits behind, don't, we can't take the road, let's hide first, wait for those to leave, then we can go out..."

"Fu Lei, you are enough, stop making trouble, I told you..."

"I told you too, there are really bandits, I won't lie to you!"

The two started a tug-of-war again, one became more and more impatient, and the other became more and more irritable. Just when they were about to fight, a burst of rapid hoofbeats came from far and near.
