Chapter 149 Detained, arrived in Jingbei City
The next day, the two planned to go around the nearby suburbs for a few days, and then they returned to the Fucheng and gathered with the large army, but they were caught by Zhang Chenghai. They just needed to move in the Fucheng, which made the two kids so angry.
The two sat on the stone steps in the backyard of the inn, held their chins together, and looked up at the sky.
"What should I do if Datou? I can't leave!" Yun Kanglin was a little depressed.
Datou was even more depressed, "We have done this before, why didn't we see your master not letting you?"
Yun Kanglin shook his head and sighed for the first time, "If you mess with someone in this mansion, you may be the young lady from a rich family. Can we still go out for free?"
I went out for a walk yesterday and did nothing at all, almost causing trouble. If they were really letting them make trouble, I'm afraid Zhang Chenghai would not be able to cure the aftermath for them.
Although I really want to play, I cherish my life even more. The two fearful death can only snuggle up to each other to keep warm.
But, after all, they were so happy that they couldn't stand it after holding it in for a long time. Since the city could not make trouble, they would go to a place where they could make trouble.
When the two returned in the evening, Zhang Chenghai was so angry that his forehead was so blue that his forehead was bulging, and he punished them not to eat, which made them hungry all night.
On the third day, the two of them were so hungry that they had no energy. Don’t say that they would go out and make trouble. They even felt it was difficult to walk and stayed in the inn for a day.
On the fourth day, an escort in the escort team had a conflict with others while drinking, and almost attracted all the yamen. Zhang Chenghai had a headache because of this. It was a long night and dreams, so he had to let the large army pack their luggage and continue on the road.
They stayed in Penang for a day or two before they arrived in a town. This really made them stay in Penang for a month.
When a stone tablet engraved with Chaozhou appeared on the dusty official road, Zhang Chenghai was so moved that he almost cried. God knows how he spent this month! These bastards were probably dissatisfied with delaying time and were just asking for trouble for him. What happened to Zhang San or Wang Wu today? There was something wrong every day. Fortunately, I finally arrived in Chaozhou and sent the ward to the destination and they could go home!
Zhang Chenghai was excited and shouted loudly, "Brothers! We're here in Chaozhou! We'll work harder and we'll be able to reach our destination soon."
Yun Kanglin next to him frowned and asked, "Master, where is the destination of Chaozhou?"
Zhang Chenghai was stunned and immediately said awkwardly, "Wait, I'll take a look."
Zhang Chenghai looked out the small note again, squeezed his eyes hard, and looked for a long time before saying, "We want to go to Jingbei City, Chaozhou Prefecture City, but we have to pass through the suburbs of Jingbei City, and we have to stay in a place called Zhiliu Town for one night before entering the city. At that time, we will find the shopkeeper of Baiweilou and hand over the token to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper will take us to the destination."
Yun Kanglin and others were confused when they heard it. When Zhang Chenghai spoke, everyone was stunned.
Zhang Chenghai asked proudly, "How is it? Do you understand?"
Everyone shook their heads together.
Yun Kanglin complained, "Master, why do I feel that this dart is not very reliable? Has this happened to us before when we received darts?"
Zhang Chenghai choked and said, "We have never taken the order of 10,000 taels before!"
Datou agreed on the side, "That's not it! We used to transport medicinal materials and grain to others at most, only one or two thousand taels of food! I don't know which sucker spent so much money to transport an empty box!"
Zhang Chenghai said angrily, "Who told you there is an empty box inside?"
Datou immediately smiled and said, "Master Zhang, I just said this casually, and you also saw that the box was light and there was no movement when it was moved. What wasn't it an empty box?"
"Stop giving me a huh, don't talk nonsense about things you don't know. Okay, let's continue on the way!" Zhang Chenghai raised his hand, and everyone had to follow.
The big guy didn't notice the boredom and solemnity flashing through Zhang Chenghai's eyes.
The group walked on the official road for a long time, and finally met a passerby. They quickly asked, "Membersman, ask, how to get to Jingbei City?"
The man stopped in a donkey cart, looked at Zhang Chenghai and the others in confusion, and asked, "You are escorts! Are you going to Jingbei City to take escorts? Something big happened in Jingbei City, and it's very strict to enter the city now!"
"What big thing happened?" Datou couldn't help asking.
The man did not hide it, and said in horror, "Have you heard of our first-class Liu family in Chaozhou? It is the Liu family, which is famous for its beauty! The family leader's lineage was destroyed!"
Zhang Chenghai and his group were all shocked, and then they were worried, and asked Zhang Chenghai one by one, "Master Zhang, are we still going to Jingbei City?"
Zhang Chenghai hadn't figured out how to leave yet, and after being asked this, he felt even more annoyed. His fellow passers-by asked, "Can you know when it happened? Did the murderer catch it?"
The man shouted, "I don't know, it seems that it was half a month ago. I haven't heard of the murderer, but the other party's methods are so cruel. I heard that the whole family was dismembered!"
At this time, a gust of hot wind blew, and everyone felt goose bumps all over their bodies, and they could not feel the heat at all.
Passers-by pointed the direction for Zhang Chenghai and the others and left, but they did not dare to move.
Yun Kanglin frowned and said, "Master, I think this is strange and good. The other party asked us to stay in Penang for a month. During this month, the Liu family was destroyed, and then we were asked to go to Jingbei City. This is too much."
It would be fine if he didn't say it, but when he said this, everyone else wanted to give up. At worst, they just didn't want this ten thousand taels of silver!
Zhang Chenghai frowned and said, "Not as simple as you think. We have been out for so long and if we can't make this ten thousand taels of silver, we will not only have to worry about the past six months, but we may also accompany the owner's losses. The ward is only ten thousand taels. Do you think we can afford the things here?"
Everyone was silent.
Now that they have arrived in Chaozhou, they have gone 999 steps, and they are just one last step away. If they really want them to retreat, I am afraid they will not be willing to accept it.
In this way, the pressure of the archery team became very low, and everyone seemed to stop talking. When they arrived in Zhiliu Town, Zhang Chenghai ordered four or five archery masters to guard the goods, and they were not allowed to dismantle and transfer the goods. Everyone took turns to guard them, and they could enter Jingbei City in just one night.
After a nervous night, Zhang Chenghai and his men were about to set off before dawn. When they arrived at the place where the escort team placed their cars, horses and goods, they found that the guards were dozing against the wall. They were so angry that they scolded them for a while. Seeing that there was no problem with the escorts, they ordered people to set off quickly.
Jingbei City is really just like the passerby said. Before entering the city, you can see the soldiers guarding outside the city.
Zhang Chenghai calmed down and ordered the troops to continue setting off.
