Chapter 719
"Second brother, have a bowl of herbal tea!"
A group of big men wearing the black uniforms of the Peking League, holding Yanling knives, walked into a roadside tea house under the shade of trees with sweat on their heads: "What a ghost!"
This teahouse is very large. It was set up by several teahouse owners with oilcloths and mats under the shade of trees. There are fifty or sixty square tables. Each one does his or her own thing without interfering with each other.
When a group of big men from the Peiping League entered the tea house, the tea house was already full.
There are travelers coming from north to south.
A salesman wandering around the countryside.
There are also the children of Jianghu who carry swords behind their backs.
When they saw these big men from the Peiping Alliance holding long knives, no one was afraid. They even greeted with a smile: "Man, what are you busy with in this hot day?"
One of the big men from the Peiping League responded: "Hey, it's not the Lammakou section, but his grandma's landslide. The brothers have been shoveling for a long time against the autumn tiger, and their arms are all bald, so they just shoveled
I've been there for less than half a minute... By the way, that road can't be walked today. Young and old people who want to hang out at Taiping Pass should go back home as soon as possible. If you have something to do, you must go, so you can change the route as soon as possible and start from Taibai Mansion.
past."
The horse road outside the tea house is not the main road going south or north.
Whether you are going from Wuqu County to Taibai Prefecture, or from Taibai Prefecture to Xiliang Prefecture, taking this route is difficult.
But since the beginning of the Taiping Association here, some people began to prefer to take a detour and choose to take this road to Taibai Mansion and Xiliang Prefecture.
Probably because no matter who he is, as long as he takes this path, the Taiping Society will protect his worth and life.
Those who dared to wield knives to kill people and buy goods on this road were put to death three or four years ago.
Up to now, let alone bandits and bandits, not even the thieving gentleman on this road has seen a single one.
After Taiping Town was upgraded to Taipingguan and became increasingly prosperous, the horse trail outside also became lively.
This is why this teahouse came to be. Merchants coming in and out of Taiping Pass are accustomed to resting here and moisturizing their throats...
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an outburst of resentment in the teahouse.
"Ah, I am rushing to Taipingguan to buy a betrothal gift for my youngest son!"
"Ah, I can't deliver these vegetable leaves today, but they're all rotten!"
"Man, do you really have no choice but to leave..."
The man from the Peking League who spoke sat down, lifted up the hem of his clothes, fanned himself while shaking his head and said: "The road is blocked and it is completely impossible to walk. Several of our brothers all swam here... Now the superiors are thinking of ways to change the route. Maybe in the future
Don’t go past that section. I estimate that it will only take half a month. At this time, if young and old men want to go to Taiping Pass, they can only take a detour to Taibai Mansion and walk dozens of miles more."
"By the way, the inn behind the youngest's house has been rented by our Peking League. Before the new horse road is dug, all the young and old who have delayed their journey can go there to rest for a night. Secondly,
I’ll continue my journey the next day, and it’s free of charge.”
Hearing that the Peiping League had reached this point, the passengers in the tea house who were complaining could only clasp their fists and say: "Beiping League is benevolent and righteous..."
The man from the Peking League who spoke bared his big white teeth and waved his hand, turned his head and said: "Second brother, where is the herbal tea? There is also food, hurry up and bring me some to lay on the bed. I have been busy for most of the day, so far.
It’s not even past noon yet!”
The waiter with a rag on his shoulder walked out quickly with a teapot, nodded and bowed with a smile on his face and said: "Sir, the only food in this shop is millet and wild vegetable cakes, and the price..."
"I have eaten some of the worse ones. Bring them here quickly. Are you still afraid that our men from the Beiping League will eat you for free?"
Waiter: "Don't be afraid. Sir, please sit down for a moment. I'll go get it for you..."
In a corner of the tea house.
More than twenty strong men wearing brown bodyguard uniforms were sitting at four or five adjacent tables.
Their attire is nothing out of the ordinary.
Swords placed on the table are not uncommon in this area.
Many businessmen sitting around were not surprised.
But what is interesting is that around this group of bodyguards, there is not a single person from the world who also carries a sword.
People in the tea house stayed away from this group of people, as if there was a plague on them.
After listening to the words of the Peking League man outside the tea house, the tall and heroic man with calloused hands turned his head and said lowly to the man sitting on his right: "Sir, the road is blocked and we can't get through.
what to do?"
The man sitting on his right side was also wearing a bodyguard uniform, but his body was a bit too clean.
Moreover, his whole body does not have the sturdiness and toughness of a warrior, but is rather too feminine, and his hands do not have any calluses.
He touched the two beards under his nose and said with a faint smile: "I didn't expect that there are capable people in the Beiping Alliance..."
The Yingwu man shuddered and lowered his head, not daring to answer.
The feminine man picked up the tea bowl in front of him, took a sip, and frowned involuntarily. Immediately, a look of helplessness appeared on his face, and he sighed faintly: "It's a pity that the Za family can't decide where to go.
He, the Peiping Alliance, can’t make the decision..."
The heroic man lowered his head lower: "I understand."
The feminine man took out a piece of paper from his arms and put down the tea bowl. He took out a white handkerchief from his arms and wiped the hand holding the tea bowl vigorously.
After a long while, he threw away the handkerchief and said softly: "Since everyone already knows about us, there is no need for us to be secretive. Instruct the brothers to put on their own clothes and be decent, no matter what.
No matter what, we must not lose the official’s face.”
The Yingwu man's face darkened and he responded in a low voice: "Yes!"
…
The mule stood on the top of the mountain with his hands clasped behind his back, looking expressionlessly at the horse path extending out of the mountain forest for a mile...
Tianfeng appeared behind him silently, bowed and said: "Sir, we have found out that the group of people who disappeared in the Hezishan area three days ago was led by Huo Wei, the former Zhenbei Army's chief general!"
Without waiting for the mule to reply, Tianfeng said again: "Huo Wei, whose real surname is Xiao, fourth-grade Qihai, is from Zhige County, Xuanbei Prefecture. As a young man, he entered the champion's house as a servant and changed his surname to Huo. He followed the former champion Huo Yun to Zhenbei.
The army is the guard of Huo Yun's commander. He has served as the commander, commander, guard general, and chief general of the Zhenbei Army. He once accompanied the former champion Hou Huo Yun on an expedition to the Tianji Grassland, and participated in the battle of the fall of Yongming Pass and the fall of Yanzhi County.
battles, the battle to recover Jintian Mansion, the decisive battle in Northern Xinjiang and other battles. After the four northern counties were recovered, he resigned as the commander-in-chief of the Zhenbei Army and ended up unknown..."
As the mule watched, a group of men and horses wearing red armor, holding high the five-clawed fire dragon flag, and using golden gongs to clear the way, slowly walked out of the mountain forest.
He clenched his fist and said solemnly: "Find him."
After a pause, he continued: "After all, the Lord is in charge of the army. Don't kill people. Just ask them to leave my Taiping Pass for a hundred miles..."
Tianfeng lowered his head: "Here!"
