037 Arrive at the border town
Tang put the seat on the car seat and took out two quilts and spread them on the bottom plate. Gu Yan slept on the seat close to the wall of the car. Tang put a side and leaned against the wall of the car, while Gu An and Gu Zhehan were going to put the quilt on the bed.
Gu An looked at the long legs that reached out to the outside of the car and shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Why am I going to do this? Isn't it okay to be troubled!"
Tang glared at him, patted Gu Yan on the back to coax her to sleep, and whispered: "You are so quiet, my daughter is tired. You know you are looking for trouble. Where can you arrange for more than 200 people? Although they are all miserable people, you have to do what you can? To be honest, the more than 100 children I bought in the past two years are eye-catching enough. There are all slaves owned by officials of all levels in the court. If it weren't for my parents' name, what do I think you will do?"
As he said that, Tang sighed and continued, "What should I do if I do these people now? Although it is not a business, I don't need to register, but it's enough to arrange these people to be sarcastic. Also, have you asked where these people come from? Why have you become a bandit?"
Gu An smiled bitterly, "Do you think I'm going to do it! Isn't that possible! You can't watch these people die, right? You have seen that these are all civilians. If something really happens, the court sends troops to suppress bandits. Can these people survive? Even if they don't die, they have to be imprisoned in prison for a few years.
I have asked them all, they are from villages near the border town. Last winter, the barbarians invaded and walked around the back of the border town. After robbing several villages, they got the news and ran to Daqing Mountain to settle down. Daqing Mountain is not high, and there are not many wild animals on the mountain. After barely passing the winter, they can't survive this spring. They picked the leaves and ate a lot. So, they came out to rob. I don't know if it was our bad luck or their luck, but we put them on the first deal.
I told them to let them go back to farm, but they were scared of being robbed and didn't want to go back at all. I said it took me a long time to agree to go with us. When I arrived at the border town, all the people went home, and it wouldn't be a big deal. It was like walking with them. As for the man in green,..."
Gu An settled for a while, as if he was worried, and Tang was not in a hurry, waiting for him to continue talking.
Gu An thought about it, sorted out his thoughts, and decided to continue talking. It would be better for his wife to know some things, so as not to have any accidents in the future.
"Huh, he said that his name is Yandong. He has been traveling around the world for several years and made a living by telling fortunes to others. This spring, he arrived in Daqingshan and was regarded as a semi-immortal by these villagers. He discussed with him anything.
This robbery was also proposed by Yan Dong, saying that he couldn't get through the mountain anymore, so he asked someone to guard the mountain at the foot of the mountain, and told him when a convoy came. But he didn't expect to meet us, so he asked us to take it down in a few seconds and persuaded them to go home.
Yan Dong seems to want to follow us, Madam, you have to be careful with this person. I don’t know where he came from. I secretly said, this Yan Dong is not simple, and his martial arts are not weaker than them. If he really wants to follow us,..., alas! This person is really a headache. I always feel that he is extraordinary, and it is probably not good for us to keep him."
Tang paused Gu Yan's hand and then continued to take pictures as if nothing had happened.
"It's okay, there are ten secret guards in the mansion, and there are people around Yan'er and Zhe Ge'er. If you can't turn around, you will ask a secret guard to follow me. The remaining five will follow you. There are so many people, how can you beat him? "
Gu An nodded helplessly, "Maybe, I hope he has no bad intentions for us, but I don't understand, why did he have to follow us?"
Tang didn't say anything, and she felt uncomfortable when she heard her husband sighing.
Gu Zhehan opened his eyes and listened to his parents' words. At this time, he couldn't help but speak: "Dad, mom, I think we can wait and see. Let's talk about it when we arrive at the border town. If he really has any bad intentions, he will deal with it. The so-called soldiers who come to block the water and cover the soil will always be able to figure it out."
Gu An and Tang sighed and didn't say anything else.
From time to time, Gu An and the other two fell asleep. Just as the three of them were in a deep dream, Gu Yan opened her eyes.
Yan Dong? Humph! If you believe him, you will be a ghost! Will he tell others his real name? No, no, he is like her, and he never has a name. The name Gu Yan is one of her many names. When he died, he happened to use this to run away.
Strictly speaking, she only has the code name "Blood Phoenix", and what is even more coincidental is that the name given to her by her parents in this life was used when she died.
Telling his father a pseudonym and wanting to stay here, what do he want to do? Get close to her? Maybe he is also confused? Haha, it's good that this is good. She can get to know him better when she reaches the border town, and maybe he can still use it for her.
Gu Yan smiled slightly, and a bloodthirsty light flashed in her eyes.
Shuxiang guessed it well, but someone was going to be unlucky, but that was not alone, but a group of people, and what she wanted to do was about to begin.
The next day was very peaceful, and the convoy did not encounter any strange things again. It was not until the third day that it finally arrived at the original village of the villagers.
Gu An helped them arrange for them to return to their homes, and promised to bring their men to help them rebuild their homes in the shortest time and clean up the houses and fields that were destroyed by the barbarians.
That night, Gu An and his group lived in the village. They did not enter the villagers' homes, but made do with them all night on the roadside. They set off early the next morning to go to the border town.
It was almost noon when he arrived at the border town. Butler Zhang found out the location of the garrison mansion and rushed directly to the gate of the garrison mansion.
The Border City Governing Mansion is located in the north of the border city, facing north and south, and is the residence of the official residences of the border city.
The border city is located between two high mountains. It is not a city, but a total of three cities in front and back, forming three passes.
The first pass is also called Yicheng, which means trading. It is the place where the Great Wei and the barbarians trade goods. The barbarians are not willing to fight, but there are also peace-loving tribes. These tribes exchange cattle, sheep, fur, felt, porcelain, tea, silk and various condiments with the civilians of the Great Wei for survival, but horses never exchange them.
Yicheng only opens the south gate for one day every ten days, and the north gate is not open, and there are heavy troops to prevent the barbarians from taking this opportunity to invade the Great Wei. If the barbarians want to enter Yicheng, they must have a pass. This pass is issued by General Zhongwu, the general of the border city, and the number of people and vehicles entering the Great Wei must be strictly reviewed and controlled. The number of people entering the Great Wei must not exceed 300 each time. Enter Yicheng during the day for exchanges, and when the door is closed at night, you must go out. If you don’t go out, you will be caught and be treated as a spy and will never show mercy.
The second pass is the real border city, which is only two hundred meters away from the first pass. The border city is strictly guarded, and is a military important place for the Great Wei to defend the country and the forefront of barbarian battles. Outsiders are never allowed to enter, even the family members are no exception.
