Chapter 118

When they woke up the next day, they continued on their way.

Su Moyu was uncomfortable because he used the spirit sword formula yesterday.

Plus ya'er's injury didn't recover, so the two men and a wolf hired a carriage and walked slowly along the official road.

It was not until half a month later that this line of people stepped into the boundary of Dongyun country.

Dongyun state is an empire in the whole Yunzhou.

The whole territory is surrounded by the sea in the southeast and the mountain in the northwest. Sandwiched in the middle, it is fertile soil stretching thousands of miles.

Therefore, since ancient times, the people of Dongyun country have their own industries of fishing, hunting and farming.

Although there are few famous businessmen with comparable wealth, there are small well-being homes everywhere.

However, over the past decade or so, Dongyun's national power has declined significantly, taxes have increased, and people complain.

The political situation was unstable and the gentry were in panic.

In just ten years, six emperors were replaced in Dongyun Kingdom, and each abdicated emperor died suddenly.

Although the royal family claimed that the emperors died of serious illness, everyone in Dongyun knows that these emperors were killed.

As for who the murderer is, no one dares to announce it.

Su Moyu and his party drove outside the Linxia pass. After passing this pass, they walked a hundred miles to Yunjing, the capital of Dongyun country.

Ya'er, who was silent all the way, was even more silent when she arrived here.

Su Moyu knows that this is probably the fear of being close to home.

It was not easy to disturb her thoughts. Su Moyu had to get out of the carriage by himself and smash out real gold and silver all the way, so that the soldiers guarding the customs could release directly without any inspection.

But what Su Moyu didn't realize was that his forthright behavior attracted some people's attention.

A general full of wine leaned on the head of the city, dragging two heavy Yuan Bao in his hand, and asked, "that's the rich man you said?"

He pointed to Su Moyu's carriage.

"General Hui, it's that group of people. The boy is generous and powerful. One shot is two ingots of silver. I haven't seen such a forthright person in recent years." a soldier in military uniform replied.

The general hiccupped and scolded, "can it be the son of a big surname in Beijing?"

The soldier shook his head and said, "it doesn't look like it. If it's a child with a big surname, how can you give a good face to the young people, let alone pay the toll. According to his subordinates, 90% of them are businessmen's children without background, and they are still young, and don't know the truth of not showing their wealth."

The general nodded, patted his thigh and said, "in that case, let's do it!"

As soon as he heard the general's words, the soldier quickly replied, "subordinates, please send someone out!"

Unexpectedly, the general waved his hand and said, "no, I'm unhappy today. I've done this business myself!"

The soldier answered and trotted down all the way to prepare the general's horses and weapons.

It was not long before the main gate of Linxia pass opened, and a team of cavalry, a total of 18 people, rode out and chased Su Moyu.

Although Linxia pass is not far from Yunjing, it is a little remote in this direction, so there are few pedestrians on the official road after leaving the pass.

Su Moyu was sitting in the car, thinking about his plans after entering Beijing, but he heard a sound of horses' hoofs, and someone came up from behind.

"That carriage, stop quickly!" a man shouted behind the carriage. At the same time, an eagle feather arrow broke through the air and landed right in front of the carriage.

The coachman, who had seen such a scene, was so frightened that he immediately reined in the reins and said tremblingly: "Jun ye, I'm a small man..."

While talking, the eighteen cavalry had caught up. Without saying a word, the cavalry in front swung his knife and looked at the coachman.

The coachman let out a strange cry and quickly ducked. Although he escaped, a piece of his scalp was cut off and blood flowed.

"All the people in the car get down, or they will be executed on the spot!" the cavalry took back his long knife and stared coldly at the closed door.

Su Moyu, sitting in the car, frowned.

He didn't want to cause trouble, but someone without eyes came to the door.

Shaking his head, he opened the door, looked at the arrogant cavalry and asked faintly, "what's up?"

The cavalry smiled grimly and said, "I suspect you are an enemy spy. Get out of the car and accept the inspection."

Su Moyu was amused for a while. After a while, he said, "check? Didn't you check it when you passed the customs?"

The cavalry was about to say something, but he saw the drunken general behind him urging the horse to come. He cut the horse pulling the car in two with a long knife.

Then he scolded and said, "why do you spend so much time? Boy, pay 300000 taels of silver. I'll save your life. If your tooth breaks and you don't say a word, you'll end up with it!"

There's nothing like an official army here. It's clearly a bandit who eats people and doesn't spit bones.

Su Moyu gritted his teeth and said coldly, "are you tired of living?"

When Su Moyu said this, the 18 cavalry soldiers were not afraid, but laughed loudly. For a long time, the general stopped laughing, held a long knife and scolded, "boy, you really don't know how to write the word death!"

While he was talking, he hurried to go immediately and planned to chop Su Moyu with a knife.

But the war horse just took a step forward and let him see ya'er sitting behind Su Moyu.

At one glance, it was amazing.

The general suddenly turned back and said, "listen, if the man is cut to death, you can share more money, but the woman belongs to me. No one is allowed to rob!"

The rest of the cavalry laughed, and naturally no one dared to object.

At this time, Su Moyu was completely angry.

But when he was about to get up and do it, ya'er grabbed him.

Su Moyu was stunned and looked at ya'er with some confusion.

But ya'er's eyes stared at the drunken general and asked, "are you careless?"

The general was stunned at this.

Yes, carelessness is his name. It's just his nickname in the past. No one should know the name except some close old friends or those adults who know the bottom of him.

Why does the girl across the street know her nickname?

At the thought that the other party may be a person with great background, the careless man was a little nervous. He hung the big knife aside and asked, "I don't know which lady you are?"

Silence.

Ya'er just looked at carelessly, which made his face sweat.

Careless suddenly felt that the girl seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had met.

After another silence, ya'er finally said, "me? I'm your miss!"

These words fell into careless ears, like a few thunderbolts.

After seeing ya'er for a long time, he finally remembered a man and murmured, "you... Are you miss yuan ruoya?"

Ya'er nodded gently.

Carelessly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, gasped for breath, suddenly took off the long knife and almost hysterically shouted, "kill me!"
