You can take this job.

Miss White Wine didn't like this small job, so she just said a few words, and Hu Ma also happily agreed.

Now I want to make some money, but firstly there are not many opportunities to make big money. Secondly, I am worried that my little experience in the world will make me afraid to take the big job that the old monkey man said, but I will not dare to do it.

Now that we are cooperating with a reincarnated person with the same identity, and with Miss White Wine as a guarantee, this job becomes a little more secure.

When he woke up the next day, he found an opportunity to discuss with Zhou Datong and others, saying that he had to leave for something and asked them to take the money back to Zhuangzi first.

This was well thought out, after all, it was related to the secret of the reincarnated people, so it would be inconvenient to take them with me.

Moreover, Miss White Wine brought news from the Red Lantern Club yesterday. All the shopkeepers have entered the city, and the matter has been settled. There will be no danger for Zhou Datong and the others to return to Zhuangzi now.

"ah?"

But when Zhou Datong and others heard that Hu Ma was leaving and he was taking the money back to Zhuangzi, they felt a little scared.

They came out of the village together. Although they had gone through some things, they were all used to Hu Ma taking them with them and coming up with ideas. Now Hu Ma asked them to go on their own, especially with this huge sum of several hundred taels of silver.

Even hairier.

If Hu Ma could leave with the money, they would be more relieved.

But this is just a joke, Hu Ma is going to do dangerous things, and the money is too heavy to carry.

Seeing what they were thinking, Hu Ma said with a smile: "We have all come out to travel around the world to make a living. If we are afraid of everything, how can we survive in the future?"

"You will take these coins back to Zhuangzi. This journey will be considered a lot of experience."

"Of course, if you don't encounter trouble, then forget about it. If you do encounter trouble, throw away the money when it's time to throw it away. Remember, if the money is gone and you make money again, you only have one life."

He didn't mean to be generous when he said this.

Knowing that the young man from the village was honest and had never seen so much money, he really might risk his life for money.

"Don't worry, Brother Hu Ma, if you can't do this, what else can you say?"

Seeing that Hu Ma had made up his mind, Zhou Datong took out the knife, gritted his teeth, and said harshly: "Anyway, we have learned so many moves. If we really meet a thief, I will chop him with one knife."

"Relax and don't look like I have money on you, otherwise you will be the ones to attract me."

Hu Ma smiled and gave them instructions, and then said a few words to Zhou Liang in particular.

Among these guys, Zhou Datong is the one who can make a fuss and is always full of bad intentions, while Zhou Liang is relatively stable.

After deciding on this matter, they divided their luggage. Hu Ma had to go to work, so the luggage on her was not too heavy. She just carried a mahogany sword and Zhou Datong's waist knife. The name had the mark of the Red Lantern Empress.

The weapons were left to them.

If something really happens, once these weapons are revealed, they will serve as a deterrent. Even the casual road bully bandits and even the sensible Xie Sui will not dare to provoke them.

I kept twenty taels of silver with me to spend on the journey.

In fact, it's quite heavy. It's already more than a kilogram of metal. It's so heavy when it's stuffed in my arms, and it's even heavy in my purse when it's hung around my waist.

As for the horses, let Zhou Datong and others take them away.

Although riding a horse can walk faster, Hu Ma, as a New Year watcher, can travel at night. If he brings a horse, he can only travel during the day and rest at night.

It is better to rely on these two legs to better control the travel time during the day and night.

After making an agreement, Hu Ma sent them away, and then stayed for a while. He asked the shopkeeper and merchants in the shop about the whereabouts of Wutong Town, and set off first.

Nowadays, it is no better than in Zhuangzi. There is a map of the surrounding areas in Zhuangzi. You can just turn it out and look at it. But outside the territory of the Red Lantern Lady, you can only rely on asking around like people in this world.

And what I found out was not detailed, only a general direction, so I could only ask on the roadside while driving.

After asking about it, I bought two kilograms of noodles in this wild shop and asked the store to bring them out. I also spent a few more copper coins to buy enough toppings made from fat meat and poured them into the noodles to make me full.

We ate a meal together with the Qing Tai Sui dried meat that we brought out.

After exiting the door, he headed west and strode forward.

Zhou Datong and others, who left half an hour earlier than Hu Ma and headed south, were even more nervous.

The three of them rode one horse in turns, and while one was resting on the horse, the other two were trotting beside them on two legs.

I was very suspicious at first, and when I saw someone, I was afraid that someone would come and steal money.

But when Zhou Liang saw that this was not going to work, he said: "Datong, Zhuzi, we can't do this. Brother Mazi said, we can't let people know at a glance that I have something good with me."

"We were too nervous to get into trouble."

"You guys just thought that our baggage contains either money or sweet potatoes, so that when we are on our way, we don't have to worry about others looking at us and taking advantage of us."

"This is a good idea."

Zhou Datong thought for a moment, jumped off the horse and said, "Wait for me."

As he said that, he walked towards the village not far away. After a while, a basket came over, and he didn't know whose house he took it out from.

He took the other two people with him, found a secluded place, divided the several hundred taels of silver into two parts, put the larger part into the basket, took off his coat, and buckled the basket on his back.

, tied tightly and covered with clothes.

It looks like a hunchback. The other silver coins are put into the chain and placed on the horse's back.

In this way, a hunchback rides a horse, and two other good people follow it, which not only ensures speed, but also makes it less conspicuous.

However, after rushing like this, in the afternoon, when he was about to check in the store, he still found that someone was following him at some point behind him. He did not come up to talk to him, nor was he in a hurry. Not only did he follow them slowly, he kept following them.

Zhou Datong and the others were also smart and realized something was wrong. They discussed with each other in low voices: "That boy has been following us from the place where we ate before. He followed us when we entered the alley. Maybe he was following us."

Zhao Zhu was stunned for a moment and said: "Taking the Tao? According to what the Second Master and Brother Mazi are doing, this should give people some benefit..."

"When do you get points for giving benefits? This person is obviously trying to figure out whether we are fat or not..."

Zhou Datong lowered his voice. He sat on his horse, opened his mouth to the front, and said: "There might be his accomplices in the large reed swamp in front of us. When we pass by and block our front and rear roads, they will

Take action."

After some discussion, the speed slowed down, and sure enough, the man following behind him also slowed down, keeping a distance from them.

So Zhou Datong simply reined in his horse and stared directly at the opponent.

The man couldn't stop, so he could only come over slowly, pretending that nothing happened, and walked past them.

Zhou Datong suddenly shouted: "Brother, come here."

The man was startled, stopped, looked at them sideways, and said, "What's going on?"

Zhou Datong said: "We are destined to meet each other in this wilderness. Do you have any money with you to borrow flowers?"

The man was shocked when he heard this: "What?"

Zhou Datong pulled out the knife directly: "Brothers have nothing to eat, so I want to borrow some money from you."

"You asked me to borrow money?"

The man laughed angrily. Facing three people alone, he was not afraid. He also pulled out a knife with his backhand and said, "Did you know that you have crossed the border?"

"My Hua Ye is waiting in front. The only ones doing business on this road are our Hua Ye and his family. Look at you two guys with a hunchback. You really don't know how to live or die. You think that a dozen of our Hua Ye's brothers are vegetarians."

of?"

"ah?"

Zhou Datong was surprised: "Are we traveling together?"

He hurriedly clasped his fists: "Brother, don't blame me, I didn't know you were also on the right path."

"Get out of here!"

The man was impatient, waved his hand, and at the same time took out a willow whistle from his arms and blew it hard a few times.

Zhou Datong and others ran away dejectedly. As expected, they passed the reed marsh in front of them without anyone stopping them. However, they faintly heard a few low laughs coming from the reed marsh, and someone said something like "Master Hua's name"

My head was so frightened that I pissed myself" and the like.

…

"If these guys let themselves go, they would be quite difficult to deal with."

And half an hour later, dozens of miles away, Hu Ma also burned incense, called Xiao Hongtang back, and asked Zhou Datong and the others what happened during the half-day journey, and felt funny for a moment.

He was indeed a little worried earlier, so he asked Xiao Hongtang to follow them, but seeing that they were reliable in their work, he really didn't worry anymore, took Xiao Hongtang with him, and sped up to Wutong Town.

In this way, we traveled during the day and midnight, and at night we just found a woodshed in the village to rest. It was faster than when we took the horses with Zhou Datong and the others. After two days and one night, it was better than what the white wine lady said.

We arrived at Wutong Town one day early.

Seeing that this was a small town after all, and finally had an inn, I paid for the money to stay there and have a good rest.

When you get to this inn, you don't have to sleep on a large bunk bed, you have an upper room.

And you don’t have to boil the foot washing water yourself, just ask the waiter to bring it to you.

He took advantage of the daytime and walked around the county town, taking note of several major roads that crossed it. Then he returned to the inn, had a good meal, and went to bed early. It was about midnight, and sure enough, a voice suddenly sounded: "

Sweet potato burning is calling in Wutong Town..."

"Can anyone reincarnated hear it?"

"Sweet potato roast..."
