The middle-aged man didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he said to his companion who was driving outside, "Stop the car first!"
After hearing this, his companions quickly stopped the carriage.
The middle-aged man lit the lantern again, then signaled to a companion next to him to take off the pocket on Zhao Hao's head.
Zhao Hao opened his eyes. Although the light from the lantern was not strong, it was still somewhat dazzling.
It took me a while to adapt and then I recovered.
The middle-aged man said, "Master, you should eat something and drink some water."
Zhao Hao didn't know why the other party suddenly wanted to give him food and drink.
However, he didn't want to waste brain cells thinking about it.
Anyway, that's exactly what he wants!
With a sad smile, Zhao Hao said: "Of course that's good, thank you!"
The companion next to him took out a dry cake from his pocket, broke it in half, and handed it to Zhao Hao's mouth.
Zhao Hao opened his mouth and took a big bite.
Then chew it hard in your mouth.
This cake has absolutely no moisture at all and almost choked him to death.
After swallowing it forcefully, Zhao Hao quickly said, "Brother, give me some saliva."
The person next to him glanced at the middle-aged man opposite, and the middle-aged man nodded slightly.
Zhao Hao immediately gulped down several big gulps of water. After drinking these big gulps of water, he felt like he was back to life.
I ate half of the pancake and drank some water, and my stomach finally felt full.
Zhao Hao let out a long breath and looked at the middle-aged man opposite him.
"Thank you, my friend!"
The middle-aged man said, "As it should be. A man like you shouldn't be humiliated by rats like us who don't see the light of day."
Zhao Hao laughed and shook his head, saying, "That's not the case. No one in this world is nobler than anyone else."
“There may be differences in status and position, but in terms of personality, everyone is equal.”
"Having a high status doesn't necessarily mean anything."
"There are even more people who don't treat people as human beings."
"Otherwise, how could there be such an old saying as 'those who are righteous are often butchers'?"
The middle-aged man straightened up a little after hearing this.
Immediately, he formally bowed to Zhao Hao and said, "Sir, I admire you for saying such a thing!"
Zhao Hao shook his head, sat up a little, found a suitable posture for himself, leaned in the corner of the car, closed his eyes and rested.
The middle-aged man knocked lightly on the carriage and said to the outside: "Okay, let's continue on our journey!"
After saying this, he blew out the lantern again.
This time, he did not put the pocket on Zhao Hao's head.
Soon, the carriage left the flat road and headed onto an extremely bumpy path.
After a whole night of bumpy ride, Zhao Hao was almost shaken apart.
It was not until daybreak that we returned to the main road from the small path and the road became smooth.
Zhao Hao said breathlessly: "Friend, please stop for a while and let the brothers relieve themselves."
The middle-aged man thought for a moment, nodded, and knocked on the carriage to ask his companion to stop.
Then, he looked at the two people sitting next to Zhao Hao and said, "It's convenient for you to take the master down."
The two men nodded, one of them got out of the car first, and then asked Zhao Hao to follow.
Zhao Hao was huddled in the corner of the carriage. He sat up with force and suddenly felt as if all the muscles and bones in his body were not his own.
He grimaced in pain and turned to look at the man next to him: "Brother, please help me, I can't do anything!"
The person next to him had no choice but to step forward and help him get out of the car.
Zhao Hao jumped off the shaft of the cart and staggered violently. If the man who got off first had not been quick to catch him, he would have been in great trouble.
After a long while, the numbness in her legs finally eased a little, and then she walked to the side, followed by the two men.
Without having anyone untie him, he untied his belt with his bound hands, held the robe in his mouth, and squatted down in front of the two men.
While doing it, he looked around at the surrounding environment.
The carriage was not on a main road as he had expected, but on a mountain road.
However, this mountain road is relatively flat, so it is not as bumpy as last night.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the convenience was over. Zhao Hao asked the two to help him fasten his belt again and returned to the car.
The middle-aged man couldn't help but ask: "Sir, do you know where this is?"
Zhao Hao shook his head: "I have no idea. I know very little about the area on the northeastern border of Dagan and Yue."
After a pause, he said, "However, if you take the shortest route, based on the distance we are traveling, you can probably reach Hulan Mountain before nightfall tonight, right?"
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said, "Master's calculation is absolutely correct."
"However, we are not going to take that road. In order to avoid Da Gan's pursuit, we have to continue to take a detour."
Zhao Hao nodded: "Very cautious, this is the right thing to do!"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Since we took the master away, he has never shown any worry or fear."
"Are you not afraid at all, sir?"
Zhao Hao shook his head and smiled, saying: "There's no point in being afraid, and I guess the order you received is to bring me back safely."
"So, if I take the initiative to cooperate and don't do anything weird, you will probably not let me suffer."
The middle-aged man was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "It's really terrifying to be an opponent of someone like the Marquis!"
The carriage continued on its way.
Another day of walking.
Then he changed to a new carriage and headed east instead of northeast.
After walking all night, they turned and headed due north.
Then we continued walking for another day, and at dusk we entered a deep forest in the mountains.
After traveling in the mountains for another half the night, the carriage finally stopped outside a brightly lit mountain village.
After helping Zhao Hao out of the car, the middle-aged man said, "Sir, we are here. Please follow us inside."
Zhao Hao took a deep breath and said, "Friend, let your two brothers carry me in. My legs are numb."
Although he is much stronger than an ordinary person, he is not a real martial artist after all.
After being tied up and shaken like this for so long, I'm almost paralyzed.
The middle-aged man nodded, glanced at his two companions, and then the two of them, one on each side, supported Zhao Hao and walked into the village.
Zhao Hao looked around.
This village is very big and is located in a valley.
What caught the eye were rows of large tents and teams of patrolling soldiers.
This should be a military camp.
The scale is about three to five thousand people.
Judging from the way they cleaned up, it seems that these soldiers have not been stationed here for very long.
Because there are still a lot of roots underfoot that have obviously been cut off.
If it had been a long time, it would have been trampled to pieces long ago.
Several people took Zhao Hao and walked towards the largest tent at the innermost part.
