Master of Fist
Chapter Thirty-One
The next day, the official road was twenty miles outside Hengjiang County.
dusty.
Da da! Da da!
A group of carriages is walking on the official road. From time to time, there are stones bumping the wheels, and the speed is not very fast.
There are two carriages in this team, one looks like an ordinary carriage carrying people, and the other is a specially modified carriage that can accommodate relatively large cargo.
In each carriage, a driver and a guard with a knife sit in front, and two guards with a knife sit in the back.
Everyone is dressed in navy blue strong suits, which are relatively uniform.
The only thing that is quite special is that there is a dart flag on the top of the carriage, with two big words "Sifang" written on it, it is the escort team of Sifang Escort Bureau!
The trees on both sides of the official road are shady, which slightly reduces the summer heat.
The curtain of the carriage carrying people in front was raised, revealing a youthful face of about sixteen or seventeen years old, but full of heroism between the brows.
It's just that this young man looks immature and fair. But it gives people the impression that it is like a fierce tiger, and its aura is intimidating. It doesn't look like a young son who is studying abroad, and he doesn't want to be a kid from a rich family. It's more like a gangster who has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, with a heroic spirit and a sharp-edged aura.
Looking at the dust outside the car as always.
Jiang Heng frowned and looked around.
"Laifu, where are we now?"
"Young master, have you gone twenty miles out of the city?" Lai Fu sat beside the groom and said respectfully.
"It's been an hour and only twenty miles away?" Jiang Heng was a little surprised.
In fact, this was considered fast in ancient times. The terrain was opened up all the way from Hengjiang County, but the official road was not smooth at all, and with two carriages, it was not a rush, it was already very fast!
"Master, hurry up! Come on, I think it will be no problem to arrive at the nearest market town before sunset."
It was hard for Laifu to explain, so he just smiled awkwardly.
Jiang Heng shook his head helplessly, and felt relieved after thinking about it for a while. Sitting in the carriage, I was really restless.
Originally, it was because of the delay in the success of Iron Armor Kung Fu, and I heard that a new dart had just been picked up in the Escort Bureau. After a little thought, I decided to go out to let the wind go, which can be regarded as a way to relax my depressed mood due to stagnant cultivation.
But now I find that it seems even more depressed!
"They come, the security!"
Sighing, he just sat aside and closed his eyes.
"Second young master, don't be impatient. It's not a good job to be a dart guard, just get used to it in the future!"
At this moment, an older voice sounded from inside the carriage.
Hearing that Jiang Heng was even more depressed, there was another reason why he was so irritable. That is, Xiaorou didn't accompany her, but in the carriage...
Looking at the old man sitting across from him in the car, Jiang Heng said with an awkward yet polite smile, "Thank you, Master Sun, for reminding me!"
Naturally, Jiang Heng will not be the person in charge of the dart this time. Jiang Erhai knew that his kid was going to be a dart, but he was happy and worried that this kid might not understand many things for the first time, so he just let his qualifications compare. The old Master Sun helped to walk the dart together.
However, after enduring several hours, they finally arrived at the nearest market town, Zhaojiaji, before sunset!
The carriage gradually drove into the market town. This place was no different from a county town. The flow of people didn't seem to be much, but it was also quite a lot, because there were frequent merchants coming and going between Fucheng and Qing County of Hengjiang County.
As soon as you drive into the market town, you can see the bustling scenes of some restaurants along the way, and merchants are everywhere laughing and talking about interesting stories from all over the world. It's a very lively scene.
"Last month, our Escort Bureau encountered strange things while staying here, and lost several brothers! Unexpectedly, it became lively again." Master Sun, who was on the side, couldn't help but sighed as he watched the lively scene around him.
Jiang Heng also remembered that when he saw the escort records, there was a record about Zhaojiaji staying overnight, but he couldn't say anything when he saw the embarrassment on Master Sun's face.
At this time, the sky was getting dark.
At this time, Lai Fu asked Jiang Heng if he would find an inn to rest for the night, and Jiang Heng naturally agreed.
"My lord, it's here, Laifu Inn."
Laifu pointed to the inn road ahead.
Jiang Heng couldn't help laughing at the name of the store, the other brothers also blushed, and Lai Fu scratched his head in embarrassment.
Jiang Heng nodded: "Then you go and take care of it first."
"okay."
Laifu was very familiar with such trivial matters, so Xiao Pao took the lead to enter the inn.
The two grooms were responsible for arranging the carriage, and at the same time asked the shop guy for some good horse feed.
On the other hand, Master Jiang Hengsun and other Escort staff just took their sabers and felt at ease.
But at this time, the carriage with the darts in the back was in trouble. The gates on both sides of the stables of the inn were relatively narrow, and it was impossible to get in for a while.
At this time, Master Sun said to the guys next to him, "You two go to help, and then you take turns guarding, and I will ask Xiaoer to bring the dinner."
The two strong fellows accepted the order, so they fastened their sabers and rolled up their sleeves to help.
Jiang Heng glanced at the carriage carrying the darts, and was a little curious about what was in it. The relatively slow journey is actually due to the heavy load of this carriage.
At that time, five or six guys worked together to lift it up.
At that time, Jiang Heng had also met the client, who was a merchant in the city, and there was nothing unusual in the business of silk and satin. It's just that the weight of the escort is not light.
Shaking his head and not entangled, Laifu hurried out at this time.
"Master, the room, food and drinks are all booked. The four catties of mutton that you specially ordered, Master, the back kitchen didn't prepare that much, so we have to wait."
Laifu trotted over to report.
Jiang Heng nodded in satisfaction. Jiang Heng is very satisfied with Laifu. Although this guy looks a bit cold, he is slick, good at dealing with people, and he is very hardworking and considerate.
Entering the Laifu Inn, there are already many people inside. There are all kinds of people in clothes, merchants, quacks, scholars and so on.
On Jiang Heng's side, because there are two guys and two grooms looking at the carriage and the darts, there are only five people at the moment, and two tables are enough.
Jiang Heng was at the same table with Master Sun, and Lai Fu was at the same table with those two waiters.
This is the rule of the Jiang family and the Sifang Escort Bureau. But Jiang Heng asked Laifu to prepare the same food for everyone. There is no need to treat them differently.
This made those two buddies and Laifu keep it in their hearts.
Soon the food was brought up one by one, but Jiang Heng ordered too much at this table, and almost all of them were meat, and the whole table was piled up, which attracted the attention of the people around him, and the eyes of those Jianghu customers were all shining. After a look of shock, they seemed to have thought of something and turned their heads, not daring to look again.
