About half an hour later, I saw the young man driving a flat carriage with a coffin tied to it, running straight towards Yinglong Pavilion.
He parked the flat carriage behind Dongfang Ying's carriage, jumped out and walked to the carriage, bowed to Dongfang Ying and clasped his fists, saying:
"Girl, thank you very much. Waiting patiently here, you are really a person who keeps his promises."
Dongfang Ying sat on the platform between the carriage shafts, nodded and said:
"You are also very honest. Well, without further ado, put your father's body in the coffin and set off on the road as soon as possible."
The young man said hello, and then said:
"That's right. "Girls, you are in a hurry and you probably didn't have time to buy meals. I still have a little money left, so I bought some breakfast for the girl on my own initiative. Please don't dislike it."
After saying this, he handed it over with both hands. Dongfang Ying smelled the aroma of meat buns emanating from the big package wrapped in cotton cloth, and with a thought, she took it and said thank you.
The young man smiled slightly, and his dark face looked very honest.
Then he turned around and opened the coffin lid, then walked to the pavilion, picked up the body on the ground, and gently held it. Put it gently into the coffin, close the coffin lid, and secure it firmly with ropes.
Dongfang Ying watched the young man's actions with cold eyes, inadvertently tied the steaming cloth bag into a tight knot, handed it to Nangong Huiyue, and said with a smile:
"This delicious meat The steamed buns are a courtesy of that little brother, but I’m not hungry yet. If any of you are hungry, take them and eat them first.”
Nangong Huiyue saw her asking her. Blinking, he took the package with understanding, put it behind the cash box, and said loudly on purpose:
"Who doesn't like such delicious big meat buns? If you don't want to eat them, we will eat them first. Don't complain when the time is gone."
Xiaoyun hesitated:
"Miss, you and the girl..."
Nangong Huiyue covered her head. Her small mouth whispered:
"Stop talking, just say it's delicious later."
Xiaoyun and Xiaoxia nodded suspiciously, no You know what the young lady and the heroine are doing.
Dongfang Ying watched the young man tie the coffin and said calmly:
"Brother, I see that you are good at driving. We just want to hire a driver. Are you willing to drive for us?"
Hearing this, the young man stepped forward and held his hands happily:
"There is no reason why you don't want to. Thanks to the girl, I can do it. It's just what I want to do to work like a dog and horse."
Dongfang Ying Yanran said with a smile:
"That's great, it just solves a big problem for me. When we get to Leizhou Fucheng. , hire another person to drive the coffin, and you will drive the carriage specifically for us..
"I heard the young man talk like a man who has read poetry and books. I wonder what kind of business he does?"
The young man thought for a moment and replied:
p>
"To be fair to the girl, it's not really a big business. Our father and son just dived into the sea to dig up some clam shells to get pearls in a few fishing grounds, which is also commonly known as pearl divers.
"If you can get ten or twenty pearls of average quality every year, it means your livelihood is secure. "
"Oh, that's it. It's very hard to think about. " Dongfang Ying nodded and sighed slightly.
The young man sighed and said:
"Who says otherwise? If not forced by livelihood, who would be willing to risk being buried in the belly of a fish or freezing to death? Life at the bottom of the sea is in danger, why not be a blood-stained pearl diver! "
Dongfang Ying nodded and said seriously:
"You don't have to be sad. Were the pearls you picked last year stolen by bandits? I will help you get it back and avenge your father, so that you can go back to your hometown in peace and live a good life. "
The young man looked in disbelief, and Qiqi Aiai said:
"...This... girl is... joking, right? The bandits in Niubei Ridge are extremely vicious and there are at least fifty people.
"...You, how can you help me get the pearl back? How...to avenge my late father? Impossible..."
Dongfang Ying smiled faintly and looked up at the treetops in the distance. Several sparrows were chirping on the branches.
She held two flying knives in her right hand and raised them. Throwing it with his hand, he heard the sound of "chichi" breaking through the air, and two cold lights flashed past.
The two sparrows on the top of the camphor tree fell down in response, and the sound of breaking through the air continued. , the two flying knives actually made an incredible turn and flew back,
Dongfang Ying gently and skillfully reached out to grab the handle of the knife, inserted it back into her waist, smiled at the young man and said:
"You see clearly now, do I have the ability to avenge you? Get your property back for you?"
The young man was stunned for a long time before he nodded stupidly, timidly. Qie said:
"It turns out that the girl... is really... the reincarnation of a female Bodhisattva. Her abilities are so powerful that I am so impressed by this villain...
"With this method, no one else can There are only a few dozen mountain bandits, and even a large army of officers and soldiers are not out of the question. "
Dongfang Ying just understood the trick of combining internal strength with hand strength. After a small test of knives, he defeated Mr. Wen last night. Now he is killing sparrows with his "whirlwind flying knife". He is secretly proud and curls his lips and says:
"This is nothing, I still have many methods. For the convenience of calling me along the way, you should tell me what your name is, right? "
The young man cupped his hands and said:
"I should have told the girl earlier that the villain's surname is Zheng Huoshan. I wonder if you can tell me the girl’s name? ”
Dongfang Ying said:
"My surname is Dongfang, you can just call me Dongfang.
"Without further ado, brother Huoshan, let's set off for Niubei Ridge. You lead the way. "
Zheng Huoshan agreed quickly, turned around and drove the flatbed truck, passed Dongfang Ying's carriage, and guided him in front.
Dongfang Ying looked back at the man who was eating grass on the roadside. The white horse whistled, then raised his whip and followed Zheng Huoshan.
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
The white horse also moved its hooves and followed obediently. Behind the car.
Nangong Huiyue and Xiaoyun Xiaoxia had been silent. Now she asked Dongfang Ying quietly:
"Hey silly sister, you are meddling in other people's business again." Addicted? Why do you suddenly want to avenge him and deal with those bandits?
"There are only sixteen or seventeen days until the end of the month, and we are still thousands of miles away from Jinling. Aren't you afraid that something will happen and it will be too late by then?"
Dongfang Ying ignored it indifferently:
"I'm not worried, so what are you worried about? Sister Nangong, no matter what happens, you and Xiaoyun Xiaoxia should not run around and stay in the carriage."
< p> Nangong Huiyue nodded and said:"I know! Sister, did you see that that boy was not a good match, so you deliberately tested him?"
Dongfang Ying whispered Said:
"Sister, you can see it too! He does have some quirks, he has some skills, and he doesn't look like a pearl diver. There must be something fishy in this.
"Don't really eat the buns he bought, but don't let him know that we are on guard against him, just pretend to eat them, and nothing will happen. "
Nangong Huiyue rolled her eyes at her and laughed softly:
"You are so cunning. You are quite adapted to wandering in the world. It's really hard for others to plot against you. Not easy. "
Dongfang Ying said dissatisfied:
"Do you want me to be a heartless idiot? If someone plotted against me, wouldn't you be snatched up the mountain to be the wife of Yazhai? "
Nangong Huiyue pinched her strong buttocks with her hands and said softly:
"Good sister, you can't bear to leave me. As long as you are here, no one can take it away from me. Go sister. "
Dongfang Ying was distracted and did not dare to say anything. He pushed her back into the carriage with his elbow and waved the reins to speed up.
Nangong Huiyue chuckled and said loudly on purpose:
p>
"Oh, these meat buns are so delicious. Do you think they are delicious?" "
Xiaoyun and Xiaoxia said in unison:
"It's so delicious, I ate three of them. "
"Sister, can you slow down and leave one more for me..."
Zheng Huoshan in front looked back from time to time.Looking at Dongfang Ying and others, his speed was neither too fast nor too slow, and he always kept a distance of four to five feet from the carriage behind him.
It was early in the morning. There were few pedestrians on the official road, and even fewer cars and horses. Only occasionally nearby villagers passed by.
After walking for thirteen or four miles in tandem, the sun has already climbed to the top of our head. In March, the temperature in the south heats up very quickly, and the woods gradually become warmer.
Under a big banyan tree in front, Zheng Huoshan tightened the reins and with a "hush" sound, the flatbed carriage gradually stopped.
Dongfang Ying also stopped the carriage and asked:
"Brother Huoshan, are we at Niubei Ridge now?"
Zheng Huoshan got out of the car sideways. , approached and said:
"We are almost there, on the top of the mountain in front, less than a mile away.
"How will the Oriental girl prepare to deal with them? Should we fight directly up the mountain, or should we call for formation at the bottom of the mountain? "
Dongfang Ying asked back:
"It depends on Brother Huoshan's intention. How do you want revenge?
"If you think you should kill all the bandits to get revenge for killing your father, then I will kill the generals all the way up and defeat this group of bandits and grassroots bandits;
"If you are satisfied as long as you kill the bandit leader and get back the stolen property, then we will wait for them at the foot of the mountain and capture the thief and the king. "
Zheng Huoshan was stunned for a moment, rolled his eyes and pondered for a while, and said:
"The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable, not to mention that the thieves in the mountain are all extremely vicious, so naturally the most vicious ones are. It's good to catch all the bandits in one fell swoop.
"It can not only comfort the spirit of my deceased father in heaven, but also eliminate a scourge for the local people."
Dongfang Ying smiled and said:
"Brother Huoshan is really filial and has clear grudges.
"Okay, it's up to you. Let's go to the foot of the mountain ahead and kill the thieves' den together. "
Zheng Huoshan suddenly said:
"The Oriental female chivalrous Bo Yuntian is resolute and resolute, I am very moved.
"It's just that fighting later will inevitably consume physical strength. Although the female warrior is very skilled in martial arts, I really feel sorry for it.
"It's better to have a full meal first, so that you have the strength to do it. Female What do you think? "
Dongfang Ying picked up the water bag and took a big sip, wiped her mouth and said:
"No need, how much energy can be wasted by just a few bandits?
"Let's go, I can't wait to teach those bandits a lesson."
Zheng Huoshan nodded, then cupped his hands and said:
"Sorry, I also feel thirsty. Can I borrow the heroine's water bag to quench my thirst?"
Dongfang Ying smiled lightly and handed the water bag in her hand to him.
