The four hundred and fifty-eighth chapter to Xianyang(1/2)

The more Erhuo thought about it, the more he felt that the plan was good, so he took the sword and went home excitedly.

After returning, Erhuo said to his wife: "You stay at home and discipline your son. I'll go to Xianyang."

The lady was shocked and asked Erhuo: "Why are you going to Xianyang?"

Erhuo said: "There may be a great fortune in Xianyang City."

Afterwards, he didn't want to argue with his wife anymore, so he ordered Yongchi and said, "Prepare the car, I'm going to see the county magistrate."

After seeing the magistrate of Pei County, Erhuo told him about his idea of ​​going to Xianyang.

The county magistrate had no objection and nodded in agreement. After all, the rich people in the county have a certain influence here, and the county magistrate often drinks and has fun with them. He is considered friends. As long as he does not do anything out of the ordinary, the county magistrate usually lets them go.

The county magistrate helped Erhuo write a document so that he could pass through the pass without any obstacles.

Then he said to Erhuo: "Since the pacification of Xiangliang, many imperial troops have been stationed in the land of Chu, and many places have been settled. However, there are still some thieves who have not yet been wiped out."

"It just so happens that a group of merchants are going to Xianyang City tomorrow. Wouldn't it be safe for you to go with them?"

Erhuo thanked him repeatedly and agreed.

After returning to his home with the documents, Erhuo ordered people to pack up their things and prepare to go north to Xianyang.

That night, Erhuo sat in the room, staring at the sword in a daze. The more he looked, the more frustrated he felt: Why can’t I hear the roar of the dragon?

Suddenly, he remembered something. His son was fifteen years old. He was not young anymore. He couldn't hear the roar of dragons. I wonder if his son could do it.

It would be great if the son could make achievements.

Thinking of this, Erhuo excitedly picked up the sword and entered his son's room.

Erhuo's son is named Erbi, and he is sleeping in bed.

Young people run around during the day and are full of energy, but at night, they often sleep like dead dogs.

Erbi is now a dead dog. He didn't even notice that Erhuo walked to his couch.

Erhuo shook his sword in front of Erbi's head.

There is still no movement in Obi.

Erhuo sighed, feeling a little bitter: I can’t wake up even the sound of the dragon roar? Could it be that I can’t hear it?

He reached out and patted Erbi: "Wake up, wake up..."

Erbi opened his eyes in a daze and saw Erhuo standing beside him with a sword, looking like he was about to cut it down.

Erbi was startled and screamed: "Ah..."

Erhuo was very excited and waved his sword and said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this is the sound of a dragon's roar."

Erbi rolled and crawled out, but his legs became weak and he fell to the ground.

Then, a pile of yellow liquid was soaked out and the clothes were wet.

Erhuo looked at his son blankly. He fell into a distressed paradox: Is the hero who was scared by the dragon's roar considered a hero?

Erbi's screams had already alarmed his family.

The lady came and helped her son up with great distress, and then twitched Erhuo's face.

Half an hour later, Erhuo finally figured out that his son was not a hero, but a coward who was inferior to himself.

He held the sword and returned to his room without any slightest.

…………

The next day, it was dawn and I was about to set off.

There was no overnight revenge between the couple. The wife handed a bag to Erhuo: "Some of the replacement clothes and some gold and silver are there. Be careful to keep them away, don't be stolen by the thief."

Erhuo responded, carried the bag on his body casually, and hugged the sword box tightly in his arms.

The lady looked at the box and wanted to speak but stopped.

Erhuo said, "I'm leaving. As for this son...forget it, if he likes to study, then read some. If he really doesn't like it, he doesn't have to force him."

The lady looked at Erhuo in confusion and thought to herself: In the past, didn’t he force his son to study? Why did his temperament change drastically today?

However, when we were leaving, everything was in a hurry. The lady didn't even bother to talk about these gossips.

He looked at his husband and Yong Chi who was following him and asked worriedly: "Do you only take Yong Chi to Xianyang? Do you want to bring a few more servants?"

Erhuo waved his hand: "No need. I followed the merchants and it was very safe along the way. However, there were often thieves in Pei County robbing the people, and there were no servants missing at home."

The lady thought about it and thought that this was reasonable.

Didn’t Mr. Lu be looted several times?

However, Mr. Lu was smart and married his daughter to Liu Ji. Since then, the thieves have never robbed Mr. Lu again.

Therefore, everyone in the county admires Liu Ji, thinking that this person is really a hero, shocking the thieves...

Just as the wife was thinking about it, Erhuo had already taken Yongchi away.

…………

Erhuo sat in the caravan, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles.

He held the sword in his arms, hid it in the straw, and stuffed it into his clothes.

Yong Chi was puzzled and asked, "Master, you are..."

Erhuo sighed and said, "There are unexpected situations in the sky, be careful. Although it is very peaceful now, what if you encounter a group of thieves?"

"It would be fine if the thief stole other things. What should I do if I snatched my sword? Liu Ji asked me for 100,000 yuan, but I only gave 20,000 yuan, which was considered a big advantage. Once such a treasure was brought to Xianyang City, it might be sold for a large price of several million yuan."

Yong Chi was stunned when he heard this.

He whispered: "Liu Ji, the villain recognizes it. When he was young, he fought several times with him. This man was extremely treacherous and shameless."

"Once he couldn't beat me, and he actually raised a handful of soil, which caught my eyes. Then he took the opportunity to punch and kick me."

"The sword sold by such a person is a little unbelievable that it is a treasure..."

Erhuo said unhappily: "When Liu Ji was young, he might like to be clever. However, he is no longer the Liu Ji he used to be."

"He became the son-in-law of Mr. Lu, opened a treasure building, and made a daily stake in gold. How glorious is he? How many powerful guests are you? Who are you, and you dare to slander him?"

Yongchi quickly lowered his head and apologized.

In fact, there is another meaning to scolding Yongchi.

After all, this sword was bought by myself for 20,000 yuan. What do you mean by Yongchi saying he is fake? Do you have any doubts about my vision?

After scolding Yongchi, Erhuo began to worry about where to hide the sword.

Yongchi was itchy and couldn't help saying, "The villain has a good idea."

Erhuo said, "Then come and listen."

Yongchi said, "Master might as well throw the sword box and hang the sword on his body at will."

Erhuo was furious: "If this happens, will it attract the thief?"

Yong Chi said sincerely: "Thieves may not recognize such treasures."

Erhuo thought about it and thought it made sense.

This sword is so low-key that it looks like a piece of broken copper and iron. Who knows that once it reaches midnight, it will make a sound of dragon roars?

Erhuo never doubted the authenticity of this sword.

After all... Although I can't hear the dragon roar, my friends heard it. If it's just one person, it's still doubtful. The key is that many people hear it.

So Erhuo hid the sword box in the car, put the sword on his body, and nodded with satisfaction.

Two hours later, they caught up with Zhao Tuo.

Zhao Tuo's marching speed was really too slow.

And now Zhao Tuo stopped again and began to punish the feces and cow horns.

When Erhuo's team passed by, Qin Bing glanced at them casually, but didn't care.

After all, they are just a group of ordinary merchants, and there is nothing to note.

Erhuo breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn't meet them in the middle of the night. Otherwise, once the sword roared, wouldn't it be exposed?

The next day, Erhuo and the merchants were about to leave the Chu realm.

But at this time, a whistle was heard from the mountain, and many thieves ran out, about thirty or forty.

These thieves were holding bright weapons in their hands, and they were the ones who could kill without blinking.

The merchants were so scared that they all beg for forgiveness.

The thieves took control of them without any effort.

At this time, I regretted it.

If I had known this, I wouldn't have followed these merchants. The merchants were walking swaggeringly on the road with their goods. Wouldn't that be waiting to be robbed?

As a result, the leader among the merchants was very experienced and quickly took out the money and handed it over to the thief.
