Four hundred and fortieth chapters encounter rich

The strange thing is that there are only two people in this group riding on horses, and the rest are each holding a horse, and the left and right sides of the horse are carrying packages of different sizes.

"Master Zuo, it's a caravan." Jia Ping said immediately.

"Yeah." Li Feibai nodded and guessed that this group of people was a caravan traveling from north to south.

"Yes." Then Li Feibai had a flash of inspiration: "If we can sneak into the caravan, we will definitely be able to escape Qiancheng Pavilion's pursuit."

"The master is saying that we rely on the caravan to march?" Zhao Qiancheng asked.

"good."

Jia Ping looked confused: "But we don't know the direction they are going. If they go the other way, this move will not work."

"Let's go up and ask."

The five people came to the caravan. Jia Ping pretended to support Nangong Ji and tried his best to put on a smile on his face.

Seeing five people blocking the way, some strong men in the team immediately became alert, jumped out and stood in front of the two horsemen, and asked sternly: "Who is coming, and why are they blocking our way?"

Jia Ping calmly stepped forward and said with cupped hands: "Masters Rong Bing, I am from Yiyang, this child is my son, and the three of them are my followers. I was originally a traveling businessman, traveling around with my family, selling goods.

To make a living, I just want food and clothing. Unexpectedly, I just arrived two days ago

I encountered thieves on the border of Shuanglong City, and all my money and goods were robbed. One of my guards was injured, so I had no choice but to walk on foot. Now, I am unbearably hungry and thirsty, and I beg you to kindly take me in. If you can return safely,

Yiyang, I will definitely thank you greatly."

What he said was well-reasoned, well-founded, and flawless. Even Li Feibai looked at him sideways.

One person immediately looked at the five people carefully and said, "Looking at your clothes, you are obviously ordinary villagers. How can you call yourself a traveling merchant?"

"Sir, you must also know that there are many thieves on this road. If we didn't dress up like this, our bodies would have been gone." Jia Ping said, with a sad look in his eyes, which made people sympathize.

He is worthy of being someone who can lurk around Yu Guangli for a long time. This guy's acting is good and he is a good spy.

Li Feibai thought to himself.

The man glanced at the other old man on the horse. Li Feibai saw that the old man had kind eyebrows and kind eyes, a round head and big ears, and a rich and kind look. He guessed that this old man must be the owner of the caravan.

The old man finally spoke: "We are all brothers in the world. Since you and I are both in the business world, we should support each other. May I ask what your name is?"

"My surname is Zhou, and my single name is Ping." Jia Ping concealed his surname.

The old man got off his horse and bowed to Jia Pingping.

"It turns out it's Mr. Zhou, I'm Guo Dagui, you're polite."

"Master Guo, please pay your respects to the Zhou family."

With that said, Jia Ping and the four of them bowed down and saluted Guo Dagui.

"Master Zhou, there is no need to be polite." Guo Dagui raised his hand to indicate, and then said to his subordinates: "Bring some food over here."

Someone brought some bread and dry food and handed them to Zhou Ping. Of course, there was also water.

The five of them had a hearty meal, which was truly delicious.

Guo Dagui took advantage of this opportunity to look at the five people, nodded and smiled.

In order to give them enough rest time, Guo Dagui specially ordered the caravan to rest on the spot for half an hour.

After eating, Li Feibai also felt that his mental strength had recovered a lot. Looking at Sun Linghe and his son, they seemed to have recovered. They were lowering their heads and whispering, talking and laughing.

Seeing this situation, Guo Dagui came over, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Zhou, the sky is getting dark, how about we set off now?"

"Everything will be done according to Mr. Guo's wishes," Jia Ping replied with clasped fists.

"Please, Mr. Zhou, please follow the caravan. I will order four horses to be released for you to ride on."

Hearing this, Li Feibai was slightly surprised.

In the entire caravan, only Guo Dagui and the strong man beside him were qualified to ride horses. The rest of the horses were used to carry goods. Now four horses were moved out for them to ride?

Although this Guo Dagui is not a man of martial arts, he is really chivalrous and courageous.

Then I thought about it, Guo Dagui was a businessman, and a businessman would not be able to make a profit early. Perhaps it was because he heard that Jia Ping was also a businessman and could make a profit.

"You can't do it, you can't do it." Jia Ping waved his hand quickly: "The caravan horses are carrying commercial goods, let us ride them, what should we do with these goods?"

"It doesn't matter." Guo Dagui smiled and waved his hand: "The most important thing in the team is young men. Just let them take turns carrying these goods."

Jia Ping was still waiting to refuse, because he thought riding a horse was too eye-catching, but Li Feibai came out and reported: "Sir, Mr. Guo's wish, let's take it. I'm young, and I'm afraid I won't be able to bear the long journey.

Secondly, if our speed is too slow, it will delay the progress of the caravan."

Guo Dagui was slightly surprised when he heard Li Feibai's words.

How could a servant have such thoughts?

"What this brother said makes sense, Mr. Zhou, please stop refusing."

"Then, Zhou will obey."

After unloading the goods on the horse, Li Feibai, Zhao Qiancheng, and Jia Ping rode one horse each, and Sun Linghe, mother and son, rode together.

Li Feibai glanced at the goods and found that the package was all silk, and a guess flashed in his mind.

As they marched along, they saw that the sun was about to set, but no one saw the walls of Shuanglong City.

"It seems that we won't be able to reach the city tonight." Guo Dagui sighed secretly.

What business people fear most is spending the night in a place with few people. It is too dangerous for them.

"Master, if we hadn't been delayed by them along the way, we would have reached the city before the city gate closed." The muscular man next to Guo Dagui complained.

His voice was so loud that almost the entire caravan heard him.

For a moment, everyone cast dissatisfied looks at Li Feibai and the other five.

Of course, Li Feibai and others also heard it clearly.

"Don't talk nonsense." Guo Dagui waved his hand to stop the strong man.

Then, he dismounted and walked up to Li Feibai and his party, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Zhou, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the city today. I can only spend one night here. I'm sorry for you."

"What did Mr. Guo say? I am dragging you down." Jia Ping clasped his fists with an apology on his face.

"We are moving forward and retreating together, so why bother talking about it? Just wait a moment, I will order someone to prepare a straw mat for Mr. Zhou."

After speaking, Guo Dagui turned and left.

He said a few words to the people around him, and most of the people in the caravan immediately started to move.

Although they were walking on an official road, they were surrounded by mountains and forests.

Some people cut down trees, some cut grass, some sweep the floor, some make fires...

In less than one meal, the forest was filled with hundreds of straw mats, large and small, that could be used to sleep on.

Guo Dagui's is in the middle, and next to him is the muscular man.

The straw mat next to Guo Dagui was prepared for Li Feibai and his party.
