Chapter 417 It’s almost time
The convict group traveled lightly.
By the time the people from Qinglong Village arrived at the riverside, there was no trace of the target on either side.
With the river as the dividing line, Qinglong Village could not cross the border to pursue the enemy and could only sigh at the river.
Tu Huan waited until the system broadcast her the biological information of Madam Xie and others half an hour later. After it indicated that they were safe, she turned around and followed the system's prompts, driving through the night to find Xie Yuchuan.
While he was guarding the Xie family on the other side, he continued to travel quickly along the main road built by the government according to the original plan.
But compared with the other team's pursuit of stability and safety, Xie Yuchuan and Xiong Jiushan are not afraid of the bandits coming down the mountain tonight.
They were afraid they wouldn't come.
With the addition of the Xie family's gods, Xiong Jiushan is no longer what he thought before.
When he realized that Xie Yuchuan would be a troublesome task in the future.
He has always sought stability and safety.
As for now, Xiong Jiushan was secretly a little excited.
Just do it.
We’ll talk about the future later!
When Xiong Jiushan changes his mind, the world becomes wider.
After being tricked by Xie Yuchuan, Xiong Jiushan's mood tonight was no less than the first time he was promoted to an official position.
Although a large group of people were escorting food and supplies, many of their parents, wives and children were in another group.
As a fugitive, no one knows whether he can survive.
I originally thought that after the large group of people separated, the escorting officer Xiong Jiushan didn't know what he was taking them to do.
Unexpectedly, after the two teams separated.
After they had walked for less than half an hour, they came to a relatively quiet and secluded place, where the escorting officers reminded them to change their clothes.
When the two teams separated, Xie Yuchuan had already taken out the corresponding self-defense items from the storage space allowed by the house-guarding god.
When the exile team arrived with their carriages and horses, the Min family caravan was temporarily transferred by Xiong Jiushan to the center of the exile team's route.
The torches along the way have already lit a clear fire dragon at the foot of Panlong Ridge.
A scout who had been lying in ambush in a distant valley for a day and a night reported the situation to his superiors as quickly as possible.
Inside Qinglong Village, apart from leaving some space to search for the leader Wan Lichun, almost all the people came out this time.
Protective clothing, weapons, and other spare items.
Xie Yuchuan whispered to his family, "Go into the mountains at midnight, take a shortcut, and lead a group of two people. Take the weapons given by the family gods and be alert, so that you won't be unable to react when the crisis comes."
"yes!"
Xie Yuchuan looked back at the fire behind him, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.
After Xiong Jiushan finished making the arrangements, he came to find Xie Yuchuan.
"If the weather is calm before midnight, we must be even more alert, because danger often occurs when our will is least alert. If we are not careful, we may get hurt. Thank you, General, for your caution."
Xie Yuchuan glanced at him and nodded.
"The same goes for Sir Xiong. Take care of your life first."
Xiong Jiushan also nodded, "Okay."
The two stood side by side, and after a short rest, the bright and dark led a team each.
Xiong Jiushan was accompanied by escorts and a group of carefully selected exiles.
As for Xie Yuchuan, he mainly used the male members of the Xie family as guards to receive several fugitives he had selected earlier who were exiled to the north.
Among the large group of people, there are two groups of more special people.
One is the Chai family, who had enough food and clothing during their exile but were a little unlucky; the other is the caravan behind them.
Fortunately, both companies had already made arrangements in advance.
The Chai family had a special status. Although they were exiles, they did not live like real exiles along the way.
Xie Yuchuan was not very close to the Chai family.
It was just that Lord Chai came to see him before entering the city.
Therefore, Xie Yuchuan went to talk to the Chai family.
As for the Min family's caravan, they had already followed the exile team. In order to save their lives, they took the initiative to lead the team to join Xiong Jiushan.
The arrangements for the Min family were naturally made by Xiong Jiushan.
Soon, after changing clothes, almost the entire team suddenly realized that they could not go all the way tonight, and something big was about to happen.
If Xiong Jiushan and Xie Yuchuan nod in agreement and both sides cross-confirm each other's character and ability, the strong and down-to-earth person will receive self-defense weapons from the officials nearby.
It didn't take long before most of the team, except for a few people, heard the exact details from the officers guarding them.
We were about to reach an area that had always been robbed by bandits.
The team suddenly stopped temporarily, dispersed to both sides, and waited for movement around them.
The torches that had been burning along the way were extinguished at the same time under Xiong Jiushan's order.
Everyone, whether they were escorts, exiles, or merchants, had to adapt to the sudden change from light to darkness.
However, what surprised everyone was that because of the sudden extinguishing of the fire, they were plunged into sudden darkness for a short time.
Many people closed their eyes to adapt, and after turning off their vision, they discovered that their hearing suddenly increased in this desolate mountain and wilderness.
Suddenly, a young man in the crowd heard something and uttered a questioning sound.
"Huh?"
Gradually, more than one person, in the increasingly quiet wilderness, also heard the faint sounds coming from nowhere.
"Xie General, there seems to be outsiders around."
Xie Yuchuan opened his eyes and looked at him. The face of the person who spoke seemed familiar. Xie Yuchuan took a look and remembered the other person.
It was him who was willing to help the Xie family in exchange for food that day in Wulibao.
He is tall and strong, and he works very seriously.
Xie Yuchuan had an impression of him and knew that he was not talkative, so he said this suddenly.
Xie Yuchuan said "hmm" to indicate that he heard it.
After waiting for the other person to open his eyes, he nodded at him.
That feeling made those who followed them feel inexplicably at ease.
"It's an outpost."
Xie Yuchuan said.
The spies followed in secret all the way.
Xie Wenjie was a little nervous in the team.
His physical condition is not as good as his brother Xie Wuying, but now that Xie Wuying is not with the sixth Xie Yuchuan, Xie Wenjie is worried and insists on staying with his sixth brother at all times.
Even if he was asked to do anything, as long as it could help Sixth Brother a little bit, Xie Wenjie didn't want to avoid this danger.
What's more, the Wuying brothers are still lurking in the bandits' lair.
If Xie Wuying can do it, then Xie Wenjie can definitely do it too.
For this matter, he specially went to see Mrs. Xie and made a request. Then he equipped himself with anti-wolf spray whose attack power was no less than that of a baton.
Scholars have their own ways.
By the time Xie Yuchuan and Xiong Jiushan got there, everything was almost sorted.
In the distant night sky, a distant "signal" suddenly bursts out every once in a while.
Xie Yuchuan looked into the distance, waited for a moment, then turned to Xiong Jiushan and said, "It's almost time."
Xiong Jiushan nodded.
"Okay, ready to fight at any time."
