After time travel, my best friend and I exchanged supplies and became a rich woman

Chapter 47 The comparison is, not afraid of death



Because it snowed all night last night, the way back was not easy.

When we came here, there was only one crotch puller in the whole team, Li Xiucai, but now when we went back, there were two more crotch pullers.

Madam You and her daughter didn't mean to slow down their progress intentionally, but one of them was a sedentary embroiderer, and the other was just an eight-year-old child. Coupled with the snowy road and slippery road, the two of them stumbled while walking. , extremely difficult.

However, despite this, the two of them didn't say a word. If they fell, they would get up. If the road was difficult, they would walk slower.

There was only one Li Xiucai, who first smashed all the rice bowls of Mrs. You's family to pieces, and then kept shouting that he was exhausted, starved to death, fell to death, and froze to death.

It's so annoying.

"No, boss, if you don't eat something, I really can't stand it any longer!" Li Xiucai begged for food for the eighteenth time. "Isn't there a broken earth temple in front of you? Let's rest there and take a nap?"

"How do you know that I must have brought food?" Chen Dongyue didn't understand.

"I've seen it all! Before you left the city, you bought sesame cakes from a sesame cake stall not far from the inn!" Li Xiucai replied.

Chen Dongyue was very surprised, "The sesame cake stall is two miles away from the inn! Can you even see it?!"

"Hehehehe, no, no, there is no way. I mainly have good eyesight." Li Xiucai continued: "Master, actually I want to have something to eat and rest, not for myself, mainly for you to watch the lottery. Tang is still young, and Madam You fell down several times just now..."

"I'm fine!" Mrs. You didn't want to hold everyone back, "I just fell into the mud, so I wasn't injured."

Caitang also said: "I'm fine too, I can leave."

"Okay," Chen Dongyue made a decision at this time, "We have only walked halfway. It will probably be dark before we return to the village, so we should replenish some energy.

Let's just follow what Li Xiucai said and renovate the dilapidated temple ahead and have something to eat. It won't take too long. "

When everyone heard what Chen Dongyue said, they actually breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, traveling on this snowy day was really exhausting. Mrs. You and Caitang relied on perseverance to hold on, and even Song Bufan and his wife, who were carrying food, were grinding their teeth while walking.

Not to mention Li Xiucai, he was reduced to a pulp. Hearing his moans and groans, those who didn't know thought that this guy was not on his way, but on his way to the army.

At this moment, Chen Dongyue said that she could eat some sesame seed cakes and take a rest. No one would object to that.

.....

After a while, everyone arrived at the ruined temple.

Fortunately, passers-by may stay in this temple from time to time, so there are some dry tree branches and straw inside.

Song Bufan hurriedly lit a fire, and Chen Dongyue handed a pack of sesame seed cakes to Li Xiucai, asking him to eat the pancakes.

She herself took the only small iron pot that Mrs. You and her daughter had left, and went out to the field to collect some snow to boil water for drinking.

Because there were foreign men around, the women couldn't take off their shoes to dry their socks, so they had to gather around the fire and put their frozen feet by the fire to bake.

When his feet finally warmed up, Li Xiucai's sesame cakes were baked.

Several people gathered around the fire, eating scones, looking at the snowflakes getting bigger and bigger outside the temple gate, and felt that the road ahead was long.

"Hey, what a thief," Song Bufan cursed, "I really don't want anyone to live anymore."

Li Xiucai said: "Fortunately, my mother found a job a few days ago to help a wealthy family cook stoves. It is said that she can work from now until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and beyond.

She doesn't eat much for a little old lady, and with the food and vegetables I carried on my back, she shouldn't have to worry about it this winter.

It’s really hard to drive on this snowy day. Anyway, I’ve been staying in Qingshan Village for the past two months and I don’t plan to go anywhere. "

"I don't know how long the snow will last..." Shui Hua Niang began to worry, "Dongyue, if heavy snow blocks the road then, will it affect your business?"

Hearing Shui Hua Niang ask this, Mrs. You and her daughter also looked at Chen Dongyue nervously.

"No," Chen Dongyue replied without even thinking, "It will save a lot of trouble if I go back and forth alone."

"Then how can we let you go back and forth alone?" Song Bufan was also a polite person, "If that doesn't work, then you can come to the clan master and he will accompany you."

"No need~~" Chen Dongyue looked disgusted, "You are not enough to slow me down. Don't worry, I am smart."

.......Is it so direct? Song Bufan scratched his head, which was numb from the cold, feeling a little embarrassed.

After all, that was the truth, and he really couldn't refute it.

........

The few people had eaten, drank and rested for less than half an hour. Seeing the snowflakes falling outside more and more, Chen Dongyue said that she had to leave quickly.

If it gets dark by then and they haven't rushed back to the village, the road will be even more difficult.

Naturally, everyone who had eaten and drank enough would not object, so they quickly put out the fire with snow, packed their bags, and prepared to continue setting off.

............

Just when Chen Dongyue was about to take the lead out of the temple gate, she saw a carriage coming from a distance.

Everyone just thought that these people were just like them, coming to rest temporarily, so they didn't think much about it, and still picked up their luggage and prepared to set off.

But they had only taken a few steps outside when they were blocked by a carriage.

Then, four men got off the carriage, each with bulging bags on their waists, as if they were carrying weapons.

They didn't say much, and just divided into four directions, surrounding Chen Dongyue and others.

The leading man had a Japanese-style face with pockmarks on his face. He pulled out a forearm-length knife from his waist and said with a sinister smile: "Hey~~ these guys have bought a lot of goods. ah?"

Chen Dongyue frowned and quickly stretched out her hand to protect Shui Hua Niang, who was already shivering beside her, "What do you want to do?"

At this time, the leader Mazi subconsciously looked at Chen Dongyue.

Rub...what a big woman.

Mazi took two steps back, and then said in a deep voice: "What?! Can't you see what we are doing?"

"Brother! No need to talk nonsense with them, just grab it." Among the four, the strongest one with fleshy face also pulled out a short knife from his waist.

Just listen to him continue: "We still have serious things to do, robbing them is just a side job. Don't forget that we still have to be on our way."

"Okay," Mazi nodded at the hengrou, then turned to Chen Dongyue and said, "I'll tell you the truth, we are just robbed. But we are not here specifically for you.

When you meet us, you can be regarded as... meeting us. I don’t want to embarrass anyone too much. Just keep your things and leave, and we will spare your lives! "

Chen Dongyue sneered: "What if we don't want to?"

"Then keep your life together." Mazi said with a sinister smile.

Before Chen Dongyue could say anything, Na Hengrou interrupted, "Brother, we can't let them go. If they leak our information, then our big business won't be possible."

Mazi was angry, "Nah, am I the eldest brother or are you the eldest brother?! Didn't I think of what you thought of?!

You know nothing, so you are just yelling. If I say it directly, no matter what, they will die, then they are not allowed to resist? !

If I don't do it right then, if I get blood splattered all over me, would you say it's disgusting or not? ! "

Everyone except Chen Dongyue was frightened when they heard what the robber said.

Song Bufan clung to the pole with a pale face, while Shui Hua Niang shook her legs and wanted to lean towards Chen Dongyue.

The useless Li Xiucai was so frightened that he fell to the ground, while Caitang was whimpering and crying while holding Lady You, whose face was also pale.

After listening to Mazi's words, Chen Dongyue did not refute.

She only glanced at the faces of four people, and took a look at their body shapes and positions...and then...

"Let's discuss it," Chen Dongyue took out the purse from her waist, "I'll give you the things. You can let the child go. She's still young and can't remember your appearance."

Na Mazi laughed loudly and walked towards Chen Dongyue, still saying: "Then you have to look at me..."

Before he finished speaking, the short knife held in Chen Dongyue's hand had already scratched his neck.

This short sword was bought by Teacher Xiaoyou from a certain treasure. It is said to be a sharp blade made by hand with three hundred years of forging technology.

It cost her a full thousand and two dollars.

Now it seems that this knife is indeed worth the price.

That guy's neck is pretty fast.

Because the knife was fast, Mazi didn't feel much at the moment he was struck. He only felt a chill on his neck, and then...his own blood dyed everything in front of him red.

Just when he was about to say something, Chen Dongyue jumped up and knocked down the first robber who rushed over with one punch.

The next second, she used the weight of her body to jump up high, and then slammed her elbow into the robber who had been knocked over by her.

The robber who was still humming suddenly became silent.

At the same time, the third robber also rushed towards Chen Dongyue. Chen Dongyue held the knife in her right hand, and when the third robber rushed towards her, she opened the man's neck again.

However, at this time, Hengrou, who was the farthest away from Chen Dongyue and the tallest and strongest, had already arrived.

Seeing that the big knife in his hand was about to stab Chen Dongyue in the abdomen, Li Xiucai, who was originally lying on the ground, pounced and grabbed the fleshy right leg, "My boss, be careful!!"

Hengrou was unprepared and was almost pulled to the ground by Li Xiucai.

Unfortunately, this man did have some skills. He quickly stabilized his body, and then kicked Li Xiucai away with his left foot.

Li Xiucai, who was kicked away, groaned and fell far away, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Fortunately, Li Xiucai interrupted, and Chen Dongyue finally got some time to breathe. She stood up and shouted at Song Bufan and others who were frightened and at a loss: "Let's go!! Go to the temple and wait for me!!"

Although Song Bufan was scared, he didn't want to leave, "I, I'll help you, Dongyue!!"

It was Shuihua Niang who dragged him to the temple, "Don't cause trouble to Dongyue!"

Song Bufan, whose legs were shaking so much that he couldn't walk, staggered into the temple.

......

Outside the temple, Hengrou glanced at his three accomplices on the ground, his eyes splitting with anger, "Hey Yaksha, if you kill my three brothers today, I will make you pay for it with blood!!"

"That's four." Chen Dongyue wiped the blood from her face and raised her eyebrows at the man.

Hengrou was extremely angry, "Then let me see what you are capable of. Can you kill me!!"

After saying that, he raised his knife and struck at Chen Dongyue.

But Chen Dongyue did not dodge.

She directly raised her hand to block the incoming knife.

The big knife hit her left arm.

Hengrou was overjoyed and shouted, "Yaksha, I'll kill...ah~~"

Suddenly he felt a stinging pain in his chest. When he looked down, he saw a sharp knife plunged into his left chest.

‘Bang~! ’

Hengrou fell straight back.

At the last moment, Hengrou fell to the ground, blood oozing from his mouth, "Aren't you... afraid of being hacked to death by me..."

"Killing people means not being afraid of death." Chen Dongyue said.

Hengrou whimpered a few more times, tilted his head, and became silent again.
