Chapter 91 Rogue
The night became deeper and deeper. The wind blew past Ma Zhongcai and the boss. Both of them had only a thin shirt on their bodies. When the cold wind blew, they felt their backs cold. Ma Zhongcai was fine, but he felt that it was just a strange wind, but his boss felt that it was the ghost attached to the ring, and hurriedly hid behind Ma Zhongcai and looked around.
Ma Zhongcai said to the boss: "Boss, since I promised you, please let go of a hundred hearts. It's too late tonight. You go back first, and we will see you at the city gate tomorrow morning."
The boss said firmly: "No, I can't stay in that family for a moment. When I go back, the ghosts at home may come to kill my life. You can do it. We both set off overnight. It's just that the moon is dark and the wind is high, so maybe we can avoid bandits."
Ma Zhongcai said: "Boss, it's not that I told you, you're scared. It's already past midnight, and it's already a curfew. How can I go out of the city gate? To leave, you have to change your clothes and bring your money and food to prepare before you can set off."
Ma Zhongcai's boss started to stutter when he heard this and cried, "That's not possible. I'm afraid of staying alone. You have to accompany me tonight. I'll go back with you and wait for you at your door." Ma Zhongcai couldn't resist him, so he had to let his boss go back with him. Looking at this boss, Ma Zhongcai was also amused and crying.
The boss's original family's surname is Wang, and his real name is no longer accurate. It is just because of his obesity. He is known as "Fatty Wang" in the world. Fatty Wang was not from Youzhou. When he was young, he traveled around the world and visited many places. Later, he found a wife in Youzhou, used her savings when she was young to buy a house, recruit soldiers and open an escort agency.
Speaking of which, Fatty Wang was not so fat at the beginning, but became more and more obese after marrying a wife and having children. In Ma Zhongcai's eyes, Fatty Wang was greedy for money and lustful, and was extremely stingy. He deducted the wages of the corps officers every few days, but he was still very sensible. He had a minor disaster or a minor illness in any family.
As he thought about it, Ma Zhongcai returned home, packed his clothes and food overnight and went out. The woman on the kang at home asked him what he was going to do, and Ma Zhongcai only said that if there was something to do in the boss, he needed help to go and have an escort overnight and then went out. He knew that his wife was a heartless and brainless person, unless she was watching his body with her own eyes, she would not worry about having a bad time outside.
The two of them rushed to the city gate at night, and the guards at the city gate naturally would not let go. Ma Zhongcai was fine and brought a few clothes for Fatty Wang, but Fatty Wang was really broad-minded and fat, and it was really not suitable for wearing. It was a bit shorter here and a little thinner there. It made him stretch out a few fig leafs.
Facing the big things of life and death, Fatty Wang no longer cares about these trivial matters. However, the guards of the city did not allow them to go out, so naturally they could not go out. It was impossible to climb over the city wall. In the Han and Tang dynasties, climbing over the city wall without authorization was a serious crime, at least dozens of big boards.
After looking at the stars and moon in the sky, the moon was already westward and the east was slightly brighter. It was supposed to be morning. Ma Zhongcai pulled Fatty Wang to the foot of the city wall, threw his bag on the ground and said, "Only, let's squint here for another two hours. We can set off as soon as the city gate opens. You, don't worry about getting angry, it's going to be bright soon. I haven't heard of haunted things in broad daylight, so let's sleep with peace of mind."
Although Fatty Wang is the boss behind the escort agency, he has never been to escorts. He is not as rich as Ma Zhongcai's experience in the world. At this moment, he is frightened by the series of strange things happening at home, so he has to go to bed on the ground by following Ma Zhongcai's orders.
As soon as the sky was dawn, Fatty Wang woke up. The worried people never slept well. He woke up Ma Zhongcai who was snoring beside him. As soon as the city gate opened a crack, the two of them got out. Fatty Wang slept for a while, and was extremely excited and in good spirits. He was as if he had already arrived at the ghost market in Wumiao Village to solve the big affairs at home.
This made Ma Zhongcai look at the energy contained in Fatty Wang's body again. Not to mention him, even if he looked at the entire Ma City, he could not find a person who could have been tossing like Fatty Wang for a night and sleeping for only an hour.
Ma Zhongcai was dozing off all the way, and Fatty Wang kept scolding him, making him wake up and a little bit sensible. He even questioned him if he had such a virtue in his daily wardrobe? Ma Zhongcai was too lazy to pay attention to Fatty Wang's complaints, and still kept his spirit while walking.
After walking for more than an hour, the sun became more and more tilted and the weather became hotter. Ma Zhongcai looked at it and immediately became energetic. Not far ahead was the woods where everyone praised bandits often appeared. Ma Zhongcai had been absent-minded before because he knew that it was safe all the way, but when he reached a truly dangerous situation, the experience of an old escort leader could be reflected.
On this road, both sides are high, the road in the middle is low, and the road is lined with unfathomable dense forests, lush trees, and layers of branches and leaves, which are complex and largely obscuring people's eyes and blocking things deep in the dense forest, making people unable to see them clearly.
Ma Zhongcai drew his sword and was careful to prevent it. His eyes were patrolling around like a falcon, alerting to any situation that might happen at any time. His steps under his feet were also raised high and gently falling down, fearing that he would disturb something amazing. Fortunately, he was walking on the road, not walking through the dense forest, so he didn't have to worry about stepping on any traps and unable to get out.
Fatty Wang looked at Ma Zhongcai as if he was facing a great enemy, and he was worried. He didn't know whether it was to give him courage or to mock Ma Zhongcai's overly careful. He said, "Look at you, are you? It's so pure here, even the birds are hard to hear. How can there be any danger that makes you like this?"
Ma Zhongcai really wanted to hit Fatty Wang's butt with a scabbard, but he also knew that it was not such a joke now. He said, "You know, it's because it's so quiet here, which is a big problem. You've seen that forest without birds singing, and it's not winter. It must be because someone walks around and scares all the birds away. In addition, this is a place where bandits often appear, I'm afraid we two have fallen into each other's siege."
"Hahahaha. It's worthy of being a famous escort leader in Macheng. Our brothers have never escaped the eyes of the chief escort leader. I admire him." As soon as Ma Zhongcai finished speaking, such a voice came from the dense forest.
Immediately afterwards, a chaotic footsteps sounded in the dense forest, as if dozens of people were passing through the dense forest. In just two breaths, Ma Zhongcai and Wang Dafai were surrounded by heavy siege, and more than a dozen powerful crossbows were aimed at the vital points of the two. The man in the lead stood in front of the two with a long-handled axe.
Ma Zhongcai cursed in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged, and asked, "I guess this is the head of the company. I don't know what it costs to ask us for? First, I have no money and second, I have no goods. I only bring some changes in laundry and dry food with me. It's not worth the trouble of the head of the company."
The man who made the axe said, "That's not a big deal. Of course, brothers have rice to eat rice and noodles to eat noodles. You can at least leave something behind. You can't let everyone go for nothing. If it really doesn't work, we will work hard to tie the two back to the mountain. You will write a letter to your family and ask your family to send some money to redeem your lives."
Even if Fatty Wang was not as good as Ma Zhong, he could understand that the bandits were about to be the two of them at this moment. He was worried at this moment. Although the strange things brought by the ring were scary, their lives were not as threatening as the moment.
When the two had no choice, Yun Zangfeng came to beat the south side. He didn't know where he got a sick horse. He was as thin as a hair and was dejected. He was already trembling with four legs on his shoulders. He was immediately without a badge, and only four horses' hooves were nailed to iron horseshoes. The thick horny on it made people see that the horse was rarely managed and ran outside.
The bandits on the outside stopped Yun Zangfeng and said, "Where did the wild boy come from? Leave quickly. Grandpas are here to do business, don't disturb them. Be careful of grandpa's knife."
Yun Zangfeng had good eyesight. He saw two people inside surrounded by the bandits, one strong and the other obese. He didn't care whether the bandits' mouth was unclean, but just said, "I advise you to clean your mouth so that you won't misfortune come out of your mouth."
The bandit said hell. After being rampant on this road for a long time, many people and many things were ignored. Now, no longer whispered, raising the knife like Yun Zangfeng slashed away. Yun Zangfeng's body shortened and hit the bandit's elbow with his backhand. How strong Yun Zangfeng was, how could this little bandit easily bear it?
The bandit's elbow joint immediately broke and let out a scream. Everyone's eyes left from Fatty Wang and Ma Zhongcai in the encirclement and came to Yun Zangfeng. The shiny crossbow arrow pointed at him, and Yun Zangfeng stretched his waist and said, "It's really troublesome. You have to fight wherever you go. That brother, can you lend your knife to use it? I'm too lazy to wash my knife."
Before Ma Zhongcai could answer, Yun Zangfeng's body flashed and rushed into the encirclement and grabbed the knife from Ma Zhongcai's hand. Then there was a rush to shoot left and right. Even the bandit leader with a long-handed axe was not Yun Zangfeng's one-match enemy, but fell to the ground just after just a meeting.
Yun Zangfeng did not kill anyone. Although he was a cruel move, he was very cautious and only injured but not killed. In his heart, these bandits were a bit abominable, but they were not to the point of dying. The bandit leader covered his right arm, which was cut by Yun Zangfeng with a knife, and even wanted a trick. He shouted: "Brothers, let's get rid of your ideas, withdraw."
When they come and go quickly, the bandits quickly scattered into the dense forest and disappeared without a trace, relying on their familiarity with the terrain.
Yun Zangfeng threw the knife back to Ma Zhongcai and said, "Good knife, thank you." After that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
Fatty Wang was very active and thought to himself that he didn't know what trouble he would encounter in Wumiao Village Ghost Market. Now there is a powerful helper, how can he not catch it. He immediately knelt down and hugged Yun Zangfeng's thigh and said, "Thank you for helping you, I don't know where the hero's surname is honored, and where is he going?"
Yun Zangfeng looked at Ma Zhongcai, and Ma Zhongcai smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm dismissing Ma Zhongcai, this person kneeling on the ground is my boss, which makes the young hero laugh."
Yun Zangfeng waved his hand and said, "With the situation, there is no intention of helping you two. You don't need to perform this great gift, right?"
