Zhao Ting immediately stood up and selected ten people to escort Tang Li.
The ten people didn't know Tangli's identity and were all a little reluctant.
"I don't want to go. Lao Liu, you go." One of the teenagers refused directly and pushed the older one next to him.
The older one's eyes flickered.
They had actually been informed by Shopkeeper Zhao that some bandits were targeting them. Shopkeeper Zhao analyzed that the enemy had a large number of people and was actually very dangerous. Everyone was determined to fight to the death.
Not to mention the twenty-five people, who are in great danger, the fate of the fifteen people left is easy to imagine.
The girl was obviously an important person, so Manager Zhao had to assign people to protect her. At the same time, the ten people he pointed out all had elderly parents and young children, plus this little kid who hadn't even grown all his hair. Arranging them to escort people was to give them a way out.
They are all old hands and naturally know the meaning.
The older one pushed the young man back and said, "You little bastard, escorting people is much harder than escorting goods. Don't leave this hard job to me."
"I'm your leader, listen to me, and you guys clean up the mess." Shopkeeper Zhao said.
Their caravan was not actually put together temporarily, but was specially trained, so they have feelings for each other, are well-trained, and obey orders.
After Manager Zhao said this, the ten people had no choice but to pack their things, and soon each of them had packed a package.
"Miss, please set off quickly." Zhao Ting said, "Follow this road without stopping. You will reach the city in three hours."
Tang Li and Wei Qing packed up and got on the carriage.
The carriage passed the caravan and moved forward.
Tang Li looked at Wei Qing and said, "Husband, how many of us are going together?"
"Three secret guards are in the dark."
Including the coachman, there were four people in total.
Plus her and her husband...
"No problem." Wei Qing said.
"If we can deal with it, the other secret guards don't need to show up." Tang Li said.
Wei Qing nodded.
The carriage moved forward slowly for a while, and someone came and knocked on the wall of the carriage.
Tang Li opened the window curtain and saw the young man who didn't want to escort them before, riding a horse outside.
"Miss, can you make the carriage go faster?" said the young man.
The fact that Shopkeeper Zhao had them escort this girl meant that she was more important than the caravan's cargo. However, she was clearly unaware of the urgency of the situation and walked so leisurely that the caravan behind her was almost catching up.
The boss risked his life for her safety, but she didn't appreciate it at all...
"I feel uncomfortable when the carriage goes faster." Tang Li said coquettishly.
"Madam, are you feeling unwell? Please drive slower." Wei Qing said.
So the carriage moved even slower.
The young man's face turned red with anger and he walked away angrily.
He felt that this young lady was too annoying. The caravan had sent so many people to protect her, but she was still acting so delicate and unwilling to leave quickly, holding them back!
The boy looked back frequently, not knowing what had happened to Lao Liu and the others.
"Stop sighing. I guess these girls from the capital are all very spoiled. We just need to complete the task." The person who was traveling with him advised.
The young man was very annoyed. He really didn't want this useless job. He wanted to live and die with Lao Liu and the others!
In the carriage, Wei Qing closed his eyes and pricked up his ears to listen to the movement.
He heard that the caravan was about two miles behind them...
Tangli was also listening. She was a spirit and her hearing was even better than Wei Qing's.
"Husband, I hear the footsteps of those bandits. They are about to take action..." Tang Li suddenly said.
Sure enough, after a while, Wei Qing heard the sound of weapons clashing.
"Untie the reins of a horse." Wei Qing ordered.
The carriage was pulled by two horses. After receiving the order, the secret guard immediately untied one of the horses.
Wei Qing held Tang Li in his arms, flew out of the carriage, landed on the unbridled horse, and turned around to run back.
The ten escorts were all shocked.
They obviously didn't expect that this person from the capital, who looked like a master or a young lady, actually had such good skills.
"What are you going to do?"
"Save people." Wei Qing threw down a sentence, and the horse disappeared in an instant.
Save people? !
Save the boss and the others?!
The ten people also reacted, were immediately delighted, and hurriedly followed.
The caravan members and the bandits fought each other.
Zhao Ting is small in stature and looks like a slick businessman. But now he is holding a big knife in his hand, and his aura is completely different. His face is full of murderous intent and ferocity, and he is charging in the front.
Zhao Ting's heart sank.
These people were more numerous and more powerful than he had expected. As he had expected, they were not ordinary bandits, but trained ones...
The other party has bad intentions!
It seems that they can’t protect these goods today. They will probably all die here. Fortunately, they have ten brothers to escort the lady, so there is still a chance!
Zhao Ting thought about it and chopped forward more bravely, not afraid of the opponent's sword at all.
"Boss, we're back!"
At this moment, Zhao Ting suddenly heard a loud roar. He turned around and almost fainted.
I saw that the ten brothers actually went and came back, and the one in front was actually the young lady!
What are they coming back for!
Zhao Ting was distracted and failed to dodge the big knife that was coming straight at him.
Seeing that the big knife was about to hit Zhao Ting, Wei Qing flew up, knocked the opponent's knife to the ground, and then kicked the opponent hard and sent him flying.
Zhao Ting had exchanged several moves with that man, so he naturally knew how powerful he was. He was very surprised to see Wei Qing defeat him with one move.
Zhao Ting quickly attacked and slashed at the other man in black.
After Zhao Ting knocked down one man, he took advantage of the gap and turned around to look for the young lady.
He remembered just catching a glimpse of the young lady, who had returned. Her safety was more important than the goods, and he had to protect her even at the risk of his life!
As a result, I was stunned when I saw it.
Amidst the crowd, a pink figure stood out. Holding a crossbow, she moved among several men in black, her form nimble and fierce. Her arrows never missed their mark, and almost every time she fired, someone fell.
The young lady had no difficulty dealing with four or five men in black by herself. She was much better than me!
With the ten people joining the battle, and with the addition of the two masters Wei Qing and Tang Li, the situation of the battle was immediately reversed.
Zhao Ting suddenly felt much more relaxed.
After a fierce fight, the battle ended.
On Zhao Ting's side, only a few were injured, but no one died. The other side was half dead and half wounded, and the injured were all tied up.
On Zhao Ting's side, the uninjured ones bandaged the wounds of the injured ones.
She looked at everyone and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, nothing happened like in the dream where everyone died unexpectedly.
Zhao Ting also looked at Tang Li.
Tang Li had already put on her cloak, and her body was clean without any blood stains. She had become the clean and delicate young lady again, as if she was completely different from the girl who had just killed someone fiercely.
He really didn't expect the young lady to be so powerful. If it weren't for the young lady and the others' help, they would definitely be...
Zhao Ting looked at the living people around him and felt very fortunate.
"Luckily I met the young lady, otherwise..."
"Thank you, Miss!"
"Thank you, Miss, for saving us!"
Everyone expressed their gratitude.
They were really blind and actually thought the young lady was a burden.
Especially the young man, thinking about what he just said, he felt so ashamed that he wanted to kneel down in front of the lady!
"It's okay, you are my brother's people, so of course I will protect you." Tang Li said.
Tang Li looked at the group of men in black, his eyes darkened. Who sent these people?
