Chapter 141 Return (2)

The bodyguard team kept on going, and only slowed down a little at night, and came to a rural village to stay. Where did the inn come from in that village? Only the members of the bodyguard team pitched their own tents and set up a campsite.

Having learned the painful lesson from the surprise attack on the night camp last time, Zhang Xiaohua held Zhang Xiaohu privately and said a lot in a low voice, while Zhang Xiaohu smiled, touched his head, and said, "It should be fine here, you Look, we camped at the intersection of the small village. The place is densely populated. Even if someone thinks of evil intentions, they still have scruples. Moreover, we have just come out for the first day, so we must be vigilant, and we will be careful in everything. If I rob If it is, it will definitely be put in the next few days, and it is better to choose a wilderness."

Zhang Xiaohu paused for a moment, and then said: "In addition, this route was taken by people from the former Escort Bureau, and the campsites along the route were used before. Don't look at the speed of the convoy running this day. It is well controlled, if there are no other accidents, the whole situation will be under the control of our Escort, and, don't look at the head of Escort Luo who is usually lazy, in fact, he is also a good hand of the Escort, and his experience is extremely rich."

Seeing Zhang Xiaohua's unconvinced look, he said, "Okay, just wait and see if you don't believe me, I can also learn more experience, and when I grow up, I will also work as a big escort in the escort agency. Oh, yes, this It's been a few days, how is your wound?"

Zhang Xiaohua rolled up her sleeves, the wound was almost healed, Zhang Xiaohu was relieved, and said: "The child is fine, if it is an adult, it will take a few more days."

Then, he thought of something else and asked, "Also, Xiaohua, your right hand..."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua knew that the second brother remembered her injury again, and said with a smile, "It's almost over. Now I feel that the fingers of my right hand are more flexible, and I can use my strength. It seems that I almost can't clenched my fist completely."

After speaking, he raised his right hand and clenched his fist in front of Zhang Xiaohu. Zhang Xiaohu looked at it and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay." His eyes were wet.

Thinking about it, I took my younger brother out to hang out, and because of my own reasons, my younger brother's right hand was disabled, and I felt uncomfortable. Seeing that my younger brother's right hand has obviously recovered, it seems that he will soon recover. Where is it? Can you still be as calm as water? Heartbeat is the right way!

At the same time, there was a trace of worry in his heart. The doctor who watched Zhang Xiaohua was a veteran doctor of the Lotus Escort Bureau. He had been in the Lotus Escort Bureau for decades and had treated countless bruises, bone joints and internal injuries. To be sure, he said that Zhang Xiaohua's hand is impossible to recover. Naturally, it is the accumulation of decades of experience, so it must be correct. I don't know if the degree of recovery of the younger brother is beyond his expectation, or , Zhang Xiaohua's hand has recovered to the point where it can no longer be recovered?

However, Zhang Xiaohu immediately calmed down again, no matter what the doctor thinks, anyway, Zhang Xiaohua has recovered to such a level, which is far beyond his expectation, whether he can practice boxing or not, at least in the future life, he will not have the slightest problem Finally, Zhang Xiaohu felt a little relieved.

After telling Zhang Xiaohua a few more words, Zhang Xiaohu went to busy with his own affairs.

The bodyguard team set up their camp in a very organized manner, and they got up in a short time. Zhang Xiaohua didn't do anything to help. After asking Zhang Xiaohu for the tent, Zhang Xiaohua took some things from the carriage and put them all in the tent. .

Not long after, Yuan Changqing came to call Zhang Xiaohua. Ever since he knew that Zhang Xiaohua would deduct food expenses, Yuan Changqing took care of Zhang Xiaohua even more. Whenever he had anything to eat or drink, he would come to him. Zhang Xiaohua was naturally not polite, and followed Yuan Changqing went to eat and drink.

At night, Zhang Xiaohua slept very soundly. When it was dawn, she opened her eyes, and the first thing she said was: "Second brother, was there someone who robbed you last night?"

Hearing that Zhang Xiaohu couldn't laugh or cry, a chestnut went to his forehead, and he laughed and cursed: "Haven't you woke up yet?!"

After breakfast, the bodyguard team set up camp and continued on their way.

After more than ten days like this,

There is no tendency to be robbed, and there is no chance to sleep in the wild, so Zhang Xiaohua becomes more and more suspicious. If Ouyan didn't take a shortcut on his own initiative that day, would others have a chance to sneak attack on their camp?

The further north, the colder the weather, and the stronger the cold wind on the road. The huge pennant embroidered with the word "Lotus" was blown by the wind, making a "crackling" sound.

On this day, when they were walking to one of the few mountain roads, the speed of the bodyguard team slowed down a long time ago, and they moved forward slowly.

Zhang Xiaohu also stayed behind, and followed Zhang Xiaohua's carriage, moving forward slowly.

Zhang Xiaohua looked boredly at the snow-covered bushes hanging on both sides, and thought to herself, isn't such an environment the perfect terrain for robbery? Will bandits show up?

Just as I was thinking, I heard a rush of gongs, and a loud voice shouted in front: "I planted this tree, and I opened this mountain. I want to pass here, and I will save money to buy roads!"

Zhang Xiaohua's eyes lit up, and she shouted, "Someone robbed?!"

Zhang Xiaohu gave Zhang Xiaohua a helpless look, and said, "Why are you so happy to hear that someone robbed you?"

Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile: "Last time we met bandits, a dozen or so of them played two out of three games against us. It was quite fun. Besides, isn't our bodyguard team composed of dozens of people? How could we be afraid of them? How about sending them away in a few minutes?"

"Dizzy~" Zhang Xiaohu secretly said: "It turns out that Xiaohua wants to watch the excitement."

Zhang Xiaohu said angrily: "Last time you met more than a dozen bandits, but you can't say that there are only a dozen bandits. Although our bodyguard team has a lot of people, if there are hundreds of bandits, how can we do it?" Coping? You and I are still captives?"

"Ah~ that's it," Zhang Xiaohua exclaimed, "Then what should I do? Who knows how many bandits are there? Are there any strong ones that even the second brother can't beat?"

At this time, Zhang Xiaohu comforted him and said: "Xiaohua, you sit in the car, I'll take a look in front, I guess the big bodyguard Luo has passed by by now."

But Zhang Xiaohua was disobedient, and begged: "Second brother, you can take me with you too, I want to see, the bandit that you don't see in a hundred years, can you do it?"

Zhang Xiaohu looked at his doting brother, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, come and sit behind me, but remember, you can't say a word when you get there."

As soon as Zhang Xiaohua heard this, she immediately jumped out of the car and ran to Zhang Xiaohu's horse. Zhang Xiaohu bent down and reached for his hand, and pulled him up with all his strength, letting him sit behind him. , Dama slowly walked to the front of the team.

The queue of twenty cars was also quite long. The bodyguards and trainers of the bodyguard bureau all held weapons in their hands and protected the convoy tightly. No one came to the front to watch the fun like Zhang Xiaohua.

Zhang Xiaohu rode his horse and walked to the front of the team. He was not in a hurry to move forward. There was an open space in front of the team. Several bodyguards had already rushed over. The security leader Luo, who usually looked lazy, was standing at the front on horseback, with his hands in his hands. He kicked a Zhangba long spear and looked ahead very calmly.

Zhang Xiaohua secretly poked her head out from the second brother's armpit, looked forward cautiously, and when he saw the scene clearly, she couldn't help but gasped.

It was not like the last time he met, there were more than a dozen people and a few horses. In front of the convoy, there were a dozen big men with various weapons sitting on tall horses, looking at them coldly, and behind the dozen horses were dozens of big men who also held weapons. They stood calmly, as if they were lined up in a neat formation, not at all as lazy as the bandits they saw last time, and what made Zhang Xiaohua most nervous was that there seemed to be a lot of people hidden in the shadows among the bushes on both sides. , seems to encircle the whole convoy again.

Zhang Xiaohua asked in a low voice: "Second brother, what should we do? With so many people, we don't think we are opponents. Are we going to fight? You have to be careful, why didn't you take a weapon?"

At this time Zhang Xiaohu seemed unusually quiet, he whispered: "Xiao Hua, don't talk, just watch quietly."

When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, she immediately shut up.

Sure enough, at this moment, Escort Luo, who was standing in front of his horse, moved. He shook the reins and let the horse move forward slowly until it stopped in the middle of the open space in front of him. Then, he cupped his fists and said, "I don't know Which friend on the road is ahead, please come forward and speak."

Hearing this, among the thieves on the opposite side, there was a man with a red face and a square face. He also rode his horse and went up to meet him. Big boss Yang Shuo, I don't know how to address you?"

Chief Luo said: "This is Luo Ruihe, the head of the Lotus Bodyguard Bureau in Pingyang City. The bodyguards pass by your place, and please ask your friends to show you their hands."

The King of the Mountain frowned, and said loudly: "Oh, it turned out to be a friend from the Misty Sect from afar, please hold the flag and watch."

Na Luo escort heard that until he met the right master, he also followed the rules of the road, he was overjoyed, and said: "Boss Yang, please wait."

After finishing speaking, he rode back, walked to the front of the convoy, and shouted: "Please hold the flag!"

Therefore, the two bodyguards next to the leading car bowed off their horses, came to the front of the car, took down the bodyguard flag from the car respectfully, walked up to Luo Bodyguard's horse, handed the bodyguard flag to him, and Luo Botou held the bodyguard flag with both hands. He lifted the flagpole, shook his hands vigorously in the air, and then rode his horse back to the open space in the center. The waiting leader Yang waited for the escort Luo to approach, carefully looked at the dart flag in his hand, nodded, and then rushed to the escort. The escort flag cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Sure enough, he is a friend of the Misty Sect. Yang has neglected you. If you have time, you can go to the village to talk about it."

Luo Biaotou smiled and said: "It's easy to say, easy to say, I'm in a hurry today, I don't have time, if I pass by next time, I will definitely pay a visit."

Leader Yang said: "Then please escort Luo to go all the way, this is the token of this cottage, go five hundred miles, all the way through."

After finishing speaking, he shook his hand and threw a small sign over. Chief Luo continued with a smile, and said, "Thank you so much, I have a little thought from the escort agency in the future, please accept it with a smile from Captain Yang."

Leader Yang nodded, and said, "Boss Luo is worrying. I'll send you off not far away, and the journey will be smooth."

After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands again, circled the horses back to the main formation, and explained a few words to the people behind him, and the dozen or so horses all followed him back to the forest.

Seeing the bandits evacuating, the head of the bodyguard Luo rode back and gave some instructions to the bodyguards behind him. Then, he made a gesture and the convoy continued on its way.

When Zhang Xiaohu saw the convoy set off, he took Zhang Xiaohua back to the rear of the car, but Zhang Xiaohua couldn't get off the car, relying on his second brother's horse, Zhang Xiaohu also said helplessly: "Ride for a while, wait until I get to the front When you go, you have to get back in the car."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded endlessly.

When Zhang Xiaohua followed the convoy through the open space just now, the entire convoy had already passed, and Zhang Xiaohua saw the bodyguard that Luo Escort ordered just now rode to the bandit with a bag of things in his hand , handed it over to a bandit guarding there, the bandit took it, weighed it with his hand, smiled and bowed to the bodyguard, beat his horse and left, and the bodyguard immediately circled his horse and chased to the front of the team.

Zhang Xiaohua looked very puzzled, and asked Zhang Xiaohu in a low voice: "Second brother, why is this robbery so strange? No killing, no two wins in three rounds, why did it just go like this?"

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "What do you think robbery is? Is it just beating and killing?"

Zhang Xiaohua said: "If you don't fight and kill, how can you wait for the property to be robbed?"

Zhang Xiaohu said with no surprise: "Hehe, it's nothing strange. I thought the same as you at the beginning. When I encountered a robbery for the first time, I was sweating nervously. But after several times, it was the same. Like thunder and rain, only then do we understand what's going on."

Zhang Xiaohua wondered: "Is there any inside story?"

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "Actually, it is very simple. Bandit robbery is nothing more than seeking wealth, and seeking wealth also pays attention to methods. If it is just fighting and killing, it is inferior. The ancients said that it is good to kill people once." Thousands of self-defeating eight hundred, this killing also has a price, if you can get a lot of property after one kill, it is naturally worth it, but how can such a good business come? Let’s not talk about your way, if People often die, and future merchants will take a detour. If you don’t go here, wouldn’t you lose your source of income? Besides, you kill every time, how many brothers do you use to fight for your life? So, you have to talk about robbery Skills, if you don’t have to fight, don’t fight, even if the property you harvest is small every time, as long as you have it every time, wouldn’t it be easy to flow?”

Zhang Xiaohua nodded thoughtfully, and said to herself: "The ancients said it's good, three hundred and sixty lines, you can be the number one scholar, and a bandit should have a professional vision."

Zhang Xiaohu went on to say: "When merchants go on the road, they generally know that there is such a risk. If their property is small, naturally they are not too afraid of bandits. When they encounter them, they can just offer some silver. If you have to find someone to protect, the Escort just does the waiting business. And the bodyguards of the Escort and bandits rob for the same reason, you must pay attention to harmony and make money. If you blindly use force, then the bandits everywhere will have trouble with you , don’t open the Escort Bureau, because the Escort Bureau can’t stand constant beatings, so the most important thing in the Escort Bureau is the way, or face. If your face is big enough, many bandits will know your sign , Naturally, when we meet, we will take care of each other."

"Take care of each other?" Zhang Xiaohu was a little stunned.

"That's right, take care of each other, that is to say, the security bureau will give some silver money to the bandits according to the value of their bodyguards' property, which is regarded as money for buying the road, and the bandits will accept it with a smile and let you go forward, just like today, five journeys ahead Baili doesn't need to worry about the bandits' harassment." Zhang Xiaohu explained.

Zhang Xiaohua was puzzled, and said, "Second brother, you are like friends when you say that."

Zhang Xiaohu blinked and said, "The Snake family, hehe, that's what it is."

Zhang Xiaohua asked again: "If there is no protection from the Escort Bureau, why would the merchants give so much money?"

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "If there is no protection from the bodyguard bureau, then the merchant is just a piece of braised pork, who wouldn't want to eat it in one bite, who cares about a little benefit from you?"

Zhang Xiaohua asked again: "Then there were so many bandits just now, and our Escort probably couldn't handle it together. Didn't they eat them all in one bite? Even if they had some casualties, it was worth it."

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "This is another aspect to talk about. There are also large and small escort agencies, and their strength is uneven. If it is a small escort agency, it will naturally have this risk. However, our Lotus escort agency is behind the Misty faction. To put it bluntly, it is a tool for the Misty faction to make money in the bodyguard business. Maybe they can eat up all of this convoy, but then they will inevitably face the thunderous revenge of the Misty faction. The Misty faction is a well-known big faction in the world, send some casually Disciple, all of them can take down this bandit, how can they have the guts?"

Zhang Xiaohu talked excitedly, swallowed, and continued: "One more thing, this bandit can occupy the mountain here as king, and it is also inseparable from the support of the Zuojin Jianghu sect, and this sect is not unexpected, and it should have Escorts similar to the Lotus Escort exist, if they don’t give us face, the Misty Sect can not only wipe out this bandit, but also know the bandits within their sphere of influence and rob and kill their escort.”

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said: "I understand. In fact, to put it bluntly, force is still the most respected. If you are strong, everyone can talk and break up. Harmony makes money. If you are weak, you have to knock out your front teeth and put them in your belly." Pharynx. By the way, is it true that the bandits from Xicui Mountain in our place are behind the Misty faction?"

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "I don't know, but Xicui Mountain is too small, even if they want to join the Misty Sect, the Misty Sect will ignore them."

Zhang Xiaohua sighed, and said, "Oh, this Jianghu is still too complicated, I really can't tell."

Then, Zhang Xiaohua rejoiced and said: "If you say that, then wouldn't the bodyguards of your security bureau be very safe, and you don't have to fight?"

Zhang Xiaohu smiled wryly and said: "Where is the happy you said? There will always be unscrupulous bandits who come to rob. This bodyguard is just a job of licking blood. Didn't you see that the bodyguard bureau recruits new bodyguards and troopers every year?" Hands? Where have all the old people gone? However, I'm just a handyman now, and it's not my turn to do things like this."

Zhang Xiaohua was silent after hearing this.
