Chapter 462(2/2)
Chen Mu nodded when he heard the words. In this age where monks are everywhere, if he comes out to rob houses without any strength, then he must have something wrong with his mind.
So if you can make a name for yourself in an area and it lasts for a long time, you must be doing something right.
"Have you encountered this before when you traveled?"
Zhao Taiji took a sip of wine and said with excitement: "Of course, I'm not bragging to you. I met an incredible mountain leader, the bandit leader, known as the Red Devil! He practiced a side sect, charming the men on the way, attracting the essence and blood.
Practice.”
"Good guy, are you a female bandit?"
"Haha, that's right!" Zhao Taiji looked excited: "Sir, you don't know, female bandits are good, that's what they are!"
"..."
"..."
Zhao Taiji: "Ahem, of course, after I saw him, he naturally wanted to eliminate harm for the people, so I went up the mountain alone and fought the female bandit for three hundred rounds, and finally she surrendered.
Actually, most of these people are like this. It is often difficult for monks in the mountains to establish a place of their own, so they have no choice but to form gangs and build mountains or something. This is common outside, and some are even more so. Cooperate with big monsters and ghosts to form a group.
So I guess that the bandit among these people is probably like this, and his level should not be too low, otherwise it would not be possible for him to have been here for so long without being annihilated by a large sect."
Listen to Zhao Taiji's explanation.
Chen Mu was a little curious.
He also wanted to know what these scattered decorations were like.
Indeed, as big as the world is, it is impossible for all of them to be disciples of sect monks.
"not good!"
"There's movement!"
"Run!"
While Shen Mu and the others were chatting, the driver of the carriage in front suddenly exclaimed a few times.
Then the horses were disturbed and almost lost control.
Wow!
Tiny sounds came from the surrounding dark woods, as if many people were surrounding the place, and it seemed as if a dark wind was blowing, making it difficult to see the distance.
"Jie Jie... I didn't expect that there are people who dare to walk here at night. Since you are here, let's stay..."
A cold voice came.
The hoarse feeling makes people shudder.
Many coachmen had ugly faces and were at a loss.
But only the old man who got off the carriage in front did not panic at all. He tied the reins on the horseball with one hand and suddenly said: "Keep your property!"
Finished saying this.
The old man's carriage did not stop, but rushed forward even faster!
At the same time, the driver of the carriage convoy behind was also panicking.
When he saw the direction the old car was going, he also followed the carriage with all his might.
Not long after, the horse-drawn carriage convoy pulled away from Shenmu's ox cart, until it seemed to be about to disappear into the night.
"Jie Jie~, it seems that today's harvest is good, a car full of jewels, which is quite interesting..."
The voice in the darkness came again.
However, it was obvious that the target of these words was to abandon the racing carriage in front and turn towards the oxen carriage that was sinking behind.
At this time, the items piled into a small mountain on the ox cart were turning fluorescent under the moonlight, as if these exquisite boxes contained many treasures.
No wonder the strange sound is said to be jewels.
"Just leave it for me... huh!?"
…
…
The carriage rolled up dust.
It wasn't until the sky turned bright that the horse, which was almost exhausted, stopped running wildly.
The sky in the distance was vaguely white.
Butler Sun tightened the horse's rope, and his expression gradually returned to calmness. It seemed that the sense of urgency when he just escaped was completely gone.
He turned around and glanced at the convoy that was following him. Until the end, he still didn't see the scalper truck. Then he sighed, turned around and opened the curtain and said, "It's okay now."
inside the car.
The young woman and the boy got off the carriage.
The woman looked proud and said proudly: "It really is a perfect strategy. This method is much better than beating and killing."
The young man beside him seemed a little worried: "Master Sun, do you think they will know?"
The old man chuckled lightly and touched the young man's head: "It doesn't matter whether you know or not. Once a person dies, there will be nothing else to worry about. The three of them can only say that they are unlucky. "
"But..." The young man wanted to say something else.
But the young woman pinched him and interrupted: "We didn't force them. They are willing to take it. What do you have to worry about..."
The boy was listening to the woman's speech.
But for some reason it suddenly stopped.
He raised his head and looked at the woman. At this moment, she was looking ahead with her eyes wide open and an expression of disbelief on her face!
The young man and the old man felt strange and looked in the direction the woman was looking.
Then he froze completely.
On the official road not far ahead, the familiar old ox cart was quietly parked under the roots of a tree and grazing.
On the truck body, the boxes and items stacked were completely untouched, almost all of them were there.
The three unattractive-looking men were sitting next to the ox cart, eating packed roast chicken and beef, looking at them with smiles on their faces.
"What!!!"
"this……"
"This is impossible!"
The old man seemed to have seen a ghost, his hair stood on end, and he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.
When Tai ran, the scalper's cart was clearly behind them, and the old scalper couldn't run away at all!
But now, why are these three people in front of them?
This is the only road. If a scalper's cart passes them when they come, it's impossible not to see them!
But why is this?
Everyone just felt their scalps were numb, as if they were falling into an ice cave.
On the ox cart,
Chen Mu threw away the chicken bones, wiped his hands, and then smiled and waved to the old man in front of him, but the murderous look was hidden in his eyes.
Zhao Taiji spit out a mouthful of wine and cursed: "Humph, an old man who is more vicious than a bandit, and that little lady is not a good thing either."
"Didn't you already know that? Why get angry?" Shen Mu patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down.
In fact, I asked the three of them to help transport things from the beginning.
Chen Mu saw something was wrong.
The injuries to the horse's legs and the damage to the carriage's wheels were all man-made, and the purpose was to make them think it was a coincidence.
It is unreasonable to put valuable items on the scalper's cart while it is exposed.
So there is only one conclusion.
The old man deliberately found the three of them as bait and scapegoats.
If you really encounter bandits, you will naturally target their cattle carts and give up the pursuit.
Such was the scene last night.
But it was a pity that I met Shen Mu.
But if it were the other three ordinary people, the end would be certain death.
There is nothing wrong with what Zhao Taiji said, but such methods are indeed a bit cruel.
If there is any grudge, that's fine.
But setting up a situation like this just to teach a lesson to his juniors is really unreasonable.
The old man stepped forward with an ugly expression and said slowly: "You... how did you escape?"
