    Under the scorching sun, Kwai Tsing County lets out painful and hoarse wails from time to time!

    Originally, Kwai Tsing County, a famous city in the Xia Dynasty known as the hometown of affluence in the northwest, is obviously "unstoppable" today after a long drought.

    Kwai Tsing County was originally a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and rivers. It was often heard that there were wizards and heroes, and there were eleven places where martial arts were practiced.  A tributary of the Yuan River runs through the entire Kwai Tsing County. Although it has dried up to the point of seeing the river bed, it still has some breath left.  It is still some distance away from the driest land, and with the support from other surrounding counties, it can still survive for a while.

    At this moment, it felt like all the heat in the world was rushing towards the remaining bullet tea shop, trying desperately to show his power, as if he wanted to tear her apart!

    "Haha Your shopkeeper Gao Yi, thank you for your hard work, little second brother." As he said, Mr. Mei took out about ten taels of broken silver and put it in the waiter's hand. "The weather is hot, look at these five hundred sergeants.  The nearly 100 people under my command have been traveling for almost a day. They can't stand the heat and their mouths are dry. Can the second brother get a bigger wooden barrel and a few bowls"

    Bang there was a crisp sound of the tea bowl hitting the table. A short man wearing a melon cap, a horse-shaped face, about fifty years old, with long hair, wearing a sapphire blue satin robe, with a sophistication on his face.  It seems that he is either the height difference between Gongmen or the master of the party. He is obviously a person with the surname "Master".

    In Bai Pang¡¯s left hand, a long cigarette rod was puffing and puffing on his mouth still filled with tea juice. The red and shiny tobacco was imprinted on the hearts of everyone present, making people feel much hotter.

    Regardless of the many eyes outside, the old man calmly picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, "You can't buy the tea here with money!"

    Seeing this, a short shopkeeper dressed as a thin old man came hurriedly with his feet like a wheel. Before anyone arrived, he shouted, "Masters and officials, all the money for tea today belongs to this old man.  There are only five or six hundred people, so the water may be a bit tight, but I hope you will bear with me. We have three wells here, and one of them has the most mellow and plentiful water. It is located in Guiyizhuang, Guifu, which is famous in the northwest."  Having said this, Mei Jingfeng exchanged a few glances with the people on the seat. Before setting out on the road, he had already gotten to know all the martial arts figures along the way.

    You must know that "Gui Yi Village" is a well-known name in the northwest. I heard that the owner of "Gui Yi Village", Gui Boren, sought immortality in his early years. Later, due to insufficient qualifications, he went down the mountain to explore the world when he was nearly forty years old.  He made friends with the martial arts community in the northwest, and within ten years he conquered all the giants in the northwest. A pair of iron palms resounded throughout the green forest, and his chivalrous reputation resounded throughout the Great Xia. When he was fifty years old, he returned to his hometown of Qucheng, Kwai Tsing County, founded "Gui Yizhuang", and lived in semi-seclusion.  A carefree life.

    "This is Gui Yu'an, the steward of Gui Mansion. Every day, the water is delivered to all parts of Qucheng by Guiyizhuang on time and in quantity to ensure water supply for this large area of ??Qucheng. The owner of the village is our living Bodhisattva here.  " Seeing that both parties were unoffended, the shopkeeper hurriedly came out to smooth things over.

    "Thanks to the housekeeper, these military lords have also walked a lot. It's hot and unbearable, and they don't understand our situation. Fortunately, we still have a little water in these days, but the tea may not taste so pure. I hope  My lords, Haihan!"

    "It turns out that it's Gui, the housekeeper of Lord Gui's mansion. Here, Mei Jingfeng led a group of brothers to pass by your house. Before I could go up to the mansion to pay homage to Lord Gui, it was Meng Lang!" After hearing this, Mei Jingfeng quickly stood up to say hello. The so-called  A strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake, and besides, this is not a snake at all, but a tiger!  The Tiger King makes the ground in the northwest tremble whenever he moves his feet!  Once you have made friends with this tiger king, it will be much easier to walk in the northwest!

    He stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man. Although "Gui Yi Village" is unique in the northwest, it is not just a martial arts person. Gui Yu'an also stopped when he saw it, stood up and cupped his hands, "The owner of the village has been here for a while.  I have inspected the disaster situation everywhere, invited friends from all over the world to maintain the safety of these roads, and raised food to settle the refugees who came from the nearby counties and cities. I am afraid that I will not have time to meet you. I have other important things to attend to, so I will take my leave!"

    And among the crowds of people leaving in twos and threes, two people dressed as refugees in bamboo hats quietly got up in a far corner and followed the crowd away.

    "Did you see it? The two people who just left over there were walking very lightly. Under their sweaty coats were clothes like wallets. The fingers holding the teacups were long and they didn't look like people fleeing nearby." He sipped softly.  Tea, Mei Jingfeng said softly to the few people who came in together.

    "It seems that these thieves are a lot smarter. At least they are not like those guys who came to block the road in a big way a few times before." Liu Mei chuckled after saying this.

    "Don't underestimate the enemy. In the past few times, they were just some small groups of thieves making small troubles. But now that we know that we are escorted by cavalry troops, and they are still here to rob escorts on the ground of Guiyi Village, they are definitely not ordinary thieves.  It can be compared. We will rest here for one night today. After getting ready, we will cross Kwai Tsing County tomorrow."Zhaobaoshan is the only access road in the five northwest counties. We must pay special attention tonight and arrange an extra team of patrols. You, your wife, and brothers Sun Luo will work harder tonight." After saying that, he turned to Prince Rui and said:  "Is it okay for the prince, General He and the guards to stay in the camp tonight?  "Mei Jingfeng was afraid that if something happened, he would not be able to take care of the prince.

    "Haha, it's just the arrangements made by the chief escort, just follow the instructions of the chief escort Mei along the way," Prince Rui said with a smile.

    "Waiter, is there any larger accommodation nearby?" Mei Jingfeng finished making arrangements and called the waiter who served tea.

    "Yes, yes", the waiter hurriedly responded, "Go in from this main road, take a small turn and you will reach our city of Qucheng half a mile away. There are three large accommodation hotels on the edge of the town, among which the best and largest one  Even though there is a big hotel named 'Five Sophora Tree', there are no trees now. In these extraordinary times, there should not be many people staying there, so it can definitely accommodate all the gentlemen."

    The sun was finally driven off Zhaobaoshan with reluctance, and the rare evening breeze also carried the sympathy of the plants and trees from time to time. Along the way, Wu Yifan was able to detect in advance everything that was about to happen around him, and he had all the pearls of wisdom at his fingertips.  During this period, a few faint scents made Wu Yifan alert, but no trace of them was found after that. He felt relaxed for a while, but as he went further and further west, it was no longer possible to blend into the scent of vegetation. Occasionally, he could only feel the restlessness and restlessness of vegetation.  The ears and eyes he relied on gradually became deaf. Although the uneasiness in his heart increased a bit, it did not shake Wu Yifan's determination, but only made him more alert!

    It's almost three o'clock, and people who have been restless all day are gradually returning to the tranquility of the night. In the back yard of the "Five Sophora Tree" Hotel, ten escort cars have long been watched closely by the guards, and the courtyard is covered with both bright and dark sentries.  Outside the courtyard, not even a fly can escape the dense gaze.

    Wu Yifan, Mei Jingfeng, and the four deputy chief escorts were stationed on the left and right sides of the courtyard, placing the escort carriages under protection, while Prince Rui and a group of guards were camped in the front yard separated by a wall.

    Amidst the watchman's shouts of "It's dry and everything is dry, be careful of the candles", the snoring gradually began, and the soldiers and waiters changed their defenses in a daze. On the street not far away from the watchman's back, three people  A masked figure in a large gray suit stretched long under the autumn moon.

    "Did you notice anything strange along the way?" an old man said in a low voice.

    "No, everyone in the escort agency has seen it clearly. There is no man named Hua, but Prince Rui has joined us. We'd better not expose our identities." Another older, more hollow old man said, "Don't cause too much trouble.  There are several forces, and there is a group of remnants from the previous dynasty who came to rob the escort tonight. When they did it, we took advantage of the chaos to capture the young man Wu, and then left immediately to meet at the foot of Zhaobao Mountain." As he said this, his eyes were filled with tears.  A spark.
