C89 Blizzard Man
"It's snowing."
The old man held onto his walking stick and looked at the heavy snow that covered the sky. His brows were already furrowed.
If the storyteller was present, he would have noticed that this was the old man that decided to leave Shang Hai after hearing his story.
The old man's name was Zhu Shan. Because the mountain people had picked him up on the mountain path, he had chosen this name. The old man was only in his seventies, but he was already sixty and fifty in the business world. A person could be considered a representative of the grassroots class in Tianshan County, starting from the selection of the merchant.
Yesterday, when he heard the storyteller's story in the restaurant, his heart was filled with indignation. He came back to investigate and it turned out to be true. His heart, which had been oppressed by the aristocracy for so many years, was suddenly lifted.
On the same day, a young man paid him a visit at noon. This caused his impulsive heart to completely calm down. Through his dialogue with the young man, he clearly understood that once he started to intervene in this matter, he had to be prepared for a long standoff.
Therefore, he had been delayed by half a day and had to prepare for a full half a day before he could begin.
The mountain roads were originally difficult to traverse, but now that it was snowing, it was truly difficult.
"Father, are we still going?"
"Dad, why don't we get the escort from the escort team?"
"That's right, dad. You're our family's divine needle, so don't let it freeze you to death."
Zhu Shan looked at the heavy snow with a worried expression.
"It's still the same when we're wearing mink fur shoes. With a Tianshui County of millions of people, right now, let alone these clothes, even a mouthful of hot porridge is an extravagant hope. Let's go, increase our speed."
The old man had absolute authority in the caravan, and all the people he brought out this time were his trusted aides. Many of them were already past their seventies, but because of their years of cultivation, they couldn't see through it.
After walking for a long time, they finally saw the foot of the mountain. In the distance, they could vaguely make out some buildings, but the snow was so heavy that they couldn't see them clearly.
"Who are you people?"
A checkpoint appeared on the mountain path. A group of soldiers were blocking the mountain path, and three or four large flames were lit behind them to keep them warm.
"Hello officials, we are a caravan from Tianshan County to help with the disaster relief."
"Merchant team? "Relief?"
The leader of the soldiers suddenly burst out laughing.
"You black-hearted merchants have already come to this critical juncture, and you still do not forget to profit, you really deserve to be killed."
As the word 'kill' fell, a group of soldiers had already drawn their swords. The cold light was awe-inspiring.
"The officials have misunderstood. We came to rescue the disaster in response to His Highness Duke of Qin's call." Some of our food will be given away for free, and the rest will be sold. "My boss said that the price of these grains is only twice as high as it would normally be."
Pow …
The leader of the soldiers immediately flipped over the bonfire, anger written all over his face.
"Humph!" Now, the entire country is in the midst of disaster relief. Not only did you hateful merchants want to save the victims, you even wanted to buy food at a high price, and it was actually more than double that. Damn it, brothers, if these merchants dare to take a step forward, they will kill them on the spot. "
"We cannot allow these worms into the Tianshui County."
"Yes sir!"
The steward, who had gone to communicate with them, was immediately put in a difficult position.
"Old Wang, there's no need to say anymore." Even if we are to go deliver food, these soldiers will not let us pass. " Zhu Shan had a serious look on his face. As soon as he finished his words, the warriors of the Zhu Clan pulled their swords out of their sheaths.
"Hey!" Old thing, you're quite smart. It just so happens that today you guys should open up to the light, in case there's still something behind you that doesn't know what's good for you. "
"Prepare to fight." Zhu Shan shouted.
"F * ck, how dare the soldiers snatch our lives! Brothers, kill them all!"
Before the two sides could start fighting, a thick and strong voice abruptly sounded on the mountain path.
As soon as he finished speaking, a large man rushed out from a hillside. Following that, a group of people rushed out as well. Simply put, there were about forty to fifty people there.
"This is bad!" "Quick, run." The leader of the soldiers suddenly shouted.
The sudden appearance of this group of people was clearly directed towards them.
"Hahahaha!" Want to flee? Too late! "My sons, kill them all."
The battle ended quickly, mainly because these people appeared too suddenly, and they were too strong. Zhu Shan looked around and couldn't find anyone who was below the martial spirit realm.
"How terrifying!"
"This group of people... It seems to be a bandit! "
It was unknown who said this, but the Zhu Family caravan suddenly became restless. Fortunately, Zhu Shan was an old and experienced man, and he had managed to stabilize the situation. No one had escaped before the battle.
The group of bandits did not clean up the corpses. Instead, they kicked the corpses that were blocking the path to the side.
"Damn it, we're in a hurry. We've finally arrived."
"Big bro Dazhuang, that blade you used just now was so cool. That person's head flew off and blood didn't even spurt out."
"That's true. The Whole Gale Saber Technique was developed by me when I was watching Big Boss Black fly."
"Big bro Dazhuang, there …"
A young man pointed in the direction of Zhu Shan, reminding the big man.
"Hey! "He killed so much that he forgot about it." The big man turned his head and walked towards Zhu Shan.
"Um, hurry up and leave!" What are you doing here? "
Zhu Shan was the first to react. Initially, he was worried that there was a trick to it, but then he thought of a possibility. Even though he felt that it was ridiculous, he couldn't help but think in that direction.
"Hey, why are you dawdling? Let's not go and help out!"
"His name is Tian Zhuang, and he listened to His Highness Duke of Qin's call for disaster relief. He was filled with admiration. Other workers didn't dare to say anything, but on this path, those who had food, those who had to transport food in for the disaster, those who had to split the money, those who had to keep themselves safe, let's go! "The snow is getting heavier and heavier. It's truly not f * cking good stuff. These days, even the Heavens are helping the wicked."
That's right, it was the Tian Zhuang from Black Wind Stronghold.
Qin Fann had asked the Plum Blossom Guard to send a letter early in the morning. The Black Wind Stronghold was different from the past.
This time, because of Qin Fann's letter, all the fighters in the entire Black Wind Stronghold were mobilized. They divided into several squads to protect the road.
But because their identities were too sensitive, they decided to pretend to admire the Duke of Qin.
The snowstorm grew bigger and bigger, but the number of people heading towards the Tianshui County grew larger and larger.
Some were pulling ox-carts, some were pulling carts, and some were driving carts. The long, dragon-like line was filled with endless hope. However, the time was too short and the news did not spread fast enough. Even if Qin Fann's men ran day and night, they would only be able to travel to five or six prefectures.
The hardest part was that all the families were related to each other. Other than Qin Fann, who was afraid of Beijing, things went smoothly. The other counties all had more or less encountered a lot of trouble.
Plum Blossom Guard had already been annihilated at least as much as a family clan's family, which was why the profitable news had completely spread out.0
Even though the process was difficult, the end result was still going in a good direction. One by one, the people who delivered food in the snow began to join the great event, with heavy footsteps and dreams of making a fortune in their hearts.
