An hour later, on the streets outside Yu's residence, dozens of cars and horses were parked, and Gu Qi stood at the end of the street waiting.

It seems that this time it is not just the Zhou family who will be leaving. The two families are leaving together. With so many women and servants looking after them, the carriage and horses will not be able to speed up.It's more helpful to drive on your own.

In addition, Gu Qi saw that there were still men in strong suits leading single horses to gather together, looking and clothing not like the guards in the ordinary house, but like the escort escorts who traveled all the year round.

The Zhou family and the Yu family originally had a lot of guards, but they also hired darts?

Gu Qi frowned: It seems that the journey out of Yuzhou was not smooth.

However, it has little to do with him, he and Gu Danian stopped on the road, reckoning that if they saw a richer bandit, they would be able to give a reward to the two eldest sons.

Not to mention that there are two great causes of Zhou Yu ahead that attract firepower.

When the Zhou Yu family's carriages and horses walked out of Yuan'an Town one after another, Gu Qi instructed Gu Danian: "Let's go too, they have a lot of people, we don't need to get too close, keep a distance, just clear the way. ."

"Yeah." Gu Danian replied dully.

In fact, Gu Danian still didn't want to leave Yuzhou Mansion, but he didn't know what to do if he didn't follow Gu Qi.

With enough food on his body and not much water, he can walk for two days without a drink. When he travels during the day, at night, Gu Qi still has to find an open space to practice boxing for two hours.

The more he practiced, the more Gu Qi felt that he had probably picked up a treasure.

The magic of this boxing technique is that, no matter how tired he is from traveling during the day, as long as Gu Qi can grit his teeth and insist on practicing this boxing technique, he will feel more comfortable all over.

It seems that the stagnation and obscurity accumulated in the body will gradually dissipate with the use of boxing techniques, and together with fatigue and sweat, it will be excreted from the body, and it will be dripping freely.

There are not many options for resting on the road. Gu Qi did not deliberately avoid Gu Danian when he practiced boxing. Several times when Gu Danian woke up at night, he could see a thin girl under the night, with the moonlight opening and closing, mysterious and mysterious. The rhythm lingers around.

Gu Danian didn't ask anything, but became more silent.

After walking for four days in a row, Gu Qi was lucky, and found a stream that had not completely dried up along the way.Simply use coarse cloth to filter the slightly muddy sand, although it is still a bit cloudy and astringent, it is better than nothing.

Zhou Yu's two cars and horses travel very steadily, with a fixed daily footpath and a fixed length of rest.The female relatives of the two families did not get off the carriage and horses very often. Obviously, they were instructed before they set off, and they had very rules.

The journey went smoothly, and there was nothing that Gu Qi was worried about.

After walking for another three days, the stable official road gradually transformed into a surrounding mountain range. Gu Qi found that the speed of the Zhou Yu family's carriages and horses had changed.

Due to the large number of people and goods, it was inconvenient to travel in a hurry. At first, Gu Qi did not notice it until the original fixed rest time during the day was canceled. Then it was discovered that after nightfall, the Zhou family did not want to stop. Gu Qicai Find out that something might not be right.

"Let's... Shall we go?" Gu Danian's body couldn't take it anymore after rushing continuously for a day.

"If you don't go, let's rest first." Gu Qi searched for a shady side at the foot of the mountain, set up a fire to boil water, and handed Gu Danian the remaining noodles along with the wild vegetables and fruits dug along the road.

Gu Danian breathed a sigh of relief and was a little worried: "Then why don't we go with the Zhou family?"

Gu Qi thought about it for a while, but didn't tell Gu Danian about his worries, but said, "Wait for tomorrow morning, so it's the same for us to follow the traces of horses and horses."

Zhou Yu's family, since they recruited the Escorts in advance, they are obviously familiar with the situation on this road, and have their own ways to deal with it. At this time, there is no need to bring Gu Danian up to join in the fun.

After walking for a few days, there were not many refugees on the road. Except for Zhou Yu's two carriages, Gu Qi had only seen two merchants' motorcades passing by.The traces of carriages and horses on the official road are now easy to identify.

Boiled the water, scalded the noodles and served the wild vegetable soup, simply filling the stomach, the father and daughter had their own thoughts, and they were speechless.

"When you arrive at Jiangzhou Mansion, do you want to continue?"

It was getting dark, Gu Danian moved the chai branch and asked in a low voice, not knowing whether he was asking Gu Qi or asking himself.

Gu Qi was silent for a moment, then said, "If the Jiangzhou Mansion is in good condition, I won't leave."

After thinking for a while, Gu Qi reassured: "First settle down in Jiangzhou Prefecture. If the drought in Yuzhou Prefecture is relieved in the future, I will send you to review your village."

"Really?" Gu Danian's expression softened and he said nervously:

"Can we really look back at our village in the future? There are quite a few roads along the way."

"When I get to Jiangzhou Mansion, I'll go find a job first.

After saving enough money, it's easy to think about where to go, rent a carriage, or find a caravan. "

"It's not that easy to save money. When we arrive in Jiangzhou, we don't even have an acre of land, so how can we make money." Gu Danian felt a little uncomfortable.

He has been planting land in Gujia Village all his life, facing the loess and turning his back to the sky.Nothing but a handful of strength.The world is tough, and it's not that easy to make money.

In fact, Gu Qi doesn't really understand Gu Danian's obsession with land, but this does not prevent Gu Qi from choosing to try the life that Gu Danian wants to live.

Mountain villages, farms, fields, comfortable and stable, completely different from the past life, maybe it will be a good start.

In the morning of the second day, the two of them followed the traces of carriages and horses on the official road all the way to the south, and walked for about [-] miles, when they suddenly saw a few broken wooden boxes scattered on the mountain road on the left side of the official road. Muddy and tattered cloth after the horse's hoofs stamped on it.

As Gu Qi got closer, he found several marks of sword cuts on the trees.It seems that the Zhou Yu family really encountered robbers.Looking at the stampede marks in these four places, it is not an ordinary bandit, but an organized horse bandit.

Fortunately, although there were some sporadic bloodstains on the ground, no corpses were seen.

In addition, on the mountain road on the left, there are only traces of horseshoes galloping all the way up, and there are no wheel marks.On the other hand, the official road to the south has a lot of wheel marks, and the marks are messier than before, and it is obviously very fast.But at least it shows that the Zhou family's men and horses did not suffer from the confrontation with the horse bandits.

"move."

Gu Qi pulled Gu Danian, who was still a little stunned, and pointed to the mountain: "Don't look at it, this is the old lair of horse bandits, let's take the official road. After the next village, we will see if we can find some food and food. water."

"Horse...horse bandits?!"

When Gu Danian heard this, he immediately stopped thinking about continuing to look at it.Although he has never seen the world, he has heard from the older generation that horse bandits kill people without blinking an eye.
