C362 His Identity Slowly Rose
The Sun Moon Country was really different from what Xiao Yun had expected.
He thought that this was an extremely advanced country.
The first to bear the brunt should be civilization.
In a civilized country, benefits were often not as important.
Reputation was often more important.
That's right.
There were always some people who felt that something was more important than life or money. Only then would there be hope for that world to thrive.
The performance of General Wan and his family made Xiao Yun extremely disappointed in Sun Moon Country.
He also understood why there would be a rebellion in Sun Moon Country.
Because some patriots would probably take the initiative to do this.
Border Town, the third largest checkpoint in Sun Moon Country, the throat of a country, could actually rot so badly!
In the long run, a country would not be a country.
However, this was good news for the Qin Country.
Such an experience reminded Xiao Yun of something from before.
Something about Old Man Ma.
He was drinking and eating that day.
Xiao Yun took out some food and wine that Wu Xi had sent over earlier.
A few pastries and a jar of wine were nothing good.
It was very pretty on the plate.
Old Man Ma was stunned.
His expression was still remembered by Xiao Yun.
It was an expression of shock, shock, and then... with no place to put his mouth on.
Because Old Man Ma knew.
This little bit of food and drink was worth 200 silver!
Anyone who could afford to eat in Qin Country and was willing to eat could be counted with two slaps.
Old Man Ma looked left and right. He stretched out his chopsticks and pulled them back. After a while, he picked a spot, pinched a small piece, and threw it into his mouth to savor it.
An expression of disbelief and intoxication instantly appeared on his face.
He hurriedly praised their delicacy.
Then, he smiled awkwardly at Xiao Yun. He was humble and guilty as he asked in a low voice, "Can I wrap it up?"
Xiao Yun did not understand.
Old Man Ma said, "I want to bring it back for my parents to try."
At that moment, Xiao Yun had confidence in Molan Country.
Because there must be rules there.
With rules and faith, there would be civilization.
On the official road, the traffic was full of people, and they were stationed there.
No one wanted to leave this place recklessly, and then the other caravans would take the opportunity to occupy their positions.
If they came out of seclusion a day earlier, they would feel more at ease.
Old Man Ma led a group of people and set up camp at the same place.
Now that they finally saw Xiao Yun return, their faces were filled with excitement.
They were really afraid that Xiao Yun wouldn't be able to come back.
"Young master, how is it?"
Old Man Ma seemed very nervous.
To tell the truth, he was very worried even though he was stationed here.
He had been to the tree roots four or five times this night. He had been pissing or shitting, and it was always hard for him to calm down.
Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Let's go now."
"If we run now, won't it be too obvious? There were still people patrolling nearby just now, or would it be tomorrow morning? Should we escape while the merchant group is moving? "
Xiao Yun said, "It's not running away, it's coming out of seclusion."
"Leave seclusion?"
Old Man Ma was stunned.
"This checkpoint doesn't open at night. Once the thousand jin gate is closed, with just us, we can't open it. Even if we can open it, those guards aren't fools. If we want to clear it, we'll need at least 50,000 people. We still have to take advantage of the time when they're unprepared to have a chance. "
Xiao Yun rubbed his brows and smiled bitterly. "All of you, get ready. Let's swagger over there."
Old Man Ma was helpless.
He could only pass down the order.
This was good.
Everyone felt that Xiao Yun had gone crazy.
Or perhaps he had drunk too much and started to speak nonsense.
Even during the day, when the city gates were opened, they could not pass through. Now, the city gates were tightly closed, and there were still arrows on the city walls. Should they go out now? Wouldn't that be courting death?
The key point was that it was not worth dying at all.
But even though everyone thought so, no one disobeyed the order.
Everyone was very fast.
After packing up their things, they drove the carriage around the caravan and set off.
The rest of the caravan were also filled with doubt.
Was he cutting in line?
When it came to cutting the queue, the guards were in charge, not the kind that allowed the merchants to do as they pleased.
Anyone who cut the queue would probably never be able to pass this checkpoint. They would be recorded, and when they returned, they would have to be personally arrested. It was a huge crime.
Therefore, everyone was watching the fun.
Some people couldn't help but laugh. "Where did this newbie come from? He wanted to cut in line at night? Heh, I'm afraid he won't even know how he died. "
The person beside him asked," Then should we interfere? "
"Heh, they're courting death themselves. What should we care? Even the heavens don't want to save those who wish to die."
"Then shall we remind them?"
"Why do you want to give a reminder? I hate people who want to cut the queue just because they have some influence! Hmph!"
Those merchant groups were jolted awake by them, and they cursed them in low voices while cursing them in their hearts. Moreover, they were prepared to watch them make a fool of themselves.
After all, waiting in line was extremely boring.
With such a fun thing happening, everyone was naturally happy to see it.
But at this moment...
A rumbling sound could be heard.
It suddenly came from the city gate.
It was the sound of the gate being opened.
Under the continuous activation of the mechanism, the sound of gears making mistakes could be heard, causing people to grit their teeth.
But it was also extremely shocking.
"What's wrong? What's going on?"
Some people cried out in alarm.
The rest of the people also hurriedly walked out of the tent and stretched their necks to look in that direction.
They had all kinds of doubts and guesses in their hearts.
But no one could say for sure.
Then, it was those pursuers who were sent over at the last minute. They immediately tidied up their equipment and looked like they were ready to fight.
"It's over, it's over, it's over!"
Someone shouted, "Something big is going to happen! Could there be an invasion? Damn it, this kind of unlucky thing, we can't possibly bump into it, right? "
Once this false but very persuasive information spread, it would go out of control, and everyone panicked.
The people who were prepared to watch Xiao Yun and the others make a fool of themselves were no longer in the mood to do so. They were all thinking about how they should escape.
But after that.
A man and a horse. Their golden armor shone brilliantly under the illumination of the bonfire. They galloped towards the troops chasing them.
Some sharp-eyed people noticed.
"Eh? Isn't that General Wan? He never showed his face once throughout the year. Why did he come out in the middle of the night? Could it be that there was an enemy invasion? "
This seemed to corroborate their earlier guesses.
As a result, the merchants became even more panicked.
However, after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn...
Those soldiers and armor retreated back into their tents and ceased their attacks!
It was as if nothing had happened.
General Wan rode his horse back to the city gate.
He dismounted and waited.
Everyone was still guessing what was going on.
However, the only thing that made everyone relieved was that it did not seem like an invasion.
For the time being, there was no need to escape.
At this moment, Xiao Yun's team had just arrived at the city gate.
General Wan immediately rushed up and bowed to Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment and asked, "General Wan? Why are you here in person?"
General Wan chuckled and said in a flattering manner, "I don't trust these bastards. It's better for me to come here personally to keep an eye on them. I don't want them to offend young master. That would be a crime."
Xiao Yun suddenly understood and said, "General Wan, you are being considerate."
"Of course not! This is what I should do! Young master, please come in. The passageway to the city gate is a bit long. I will accompany you out. "
Xiao Yun nodded and returned to the carriage.
General Wan also personally got on the horse and personally led the way in front.
"Hiss..."
This time, everyone who saw this scene was dumbfounded!
They felt that their brains were not enough.
What the hell was this?
Who was that caravan just now?
Opening the city gates alone at night? Just to let them pass?
General Wan, who never came to the city gates all year round, personally rode a horse to see them off?
The people who were prepared to watch the show all had extremely embarrassed faces.
They even wanted to laugh at others?0
Did you see that!? If he didn't want to queue, he would come out at night!
As for these people, they didn't know how long they would have to line up here.
Who was the joke? Wasn't it obvious?!
"This... Who exactly are these people? They are too unreasonable..."
It was not the people who were unreasonable, it was the matter.
Then there are all kinds of guesses.
"I say, this can't be a noble person in the capital, right?"
"That... isn't enough! There are many noble people in the capital, including General Wan. It shouldn't be like this."
"Then who do you think he is?"
"If you want me to say it... It can be opened in the night, and General Wan can personally send him off... I'm afraid only the people in the Palace can open the gates at night and let ___ personally send them off..."
"Hiss... I heard that the person in the lead is a young master."
"Ah? Doesn't that mean... that he is a prince?"
"Shh!"
The onlookers immediately covered the mouth of the previous person.
"You don't want your life anymore?! How big of a deal is it for a person like that to go out? There was no news of this at all. It was probably a convenient action. If you go out in secret and Zhang Yang goes out, then if something really happens... You'll have to commit the crime of revealing the secrets of heaven. You'll have to kill your head! "
"Aiyah!"
The man from before was so scared that his lips turned purple. He lowered his head and hid in the carriage. He did not come out for a long time.
