Chapter 24 Weird Quiet

"no disagreement."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Zhai Yi quickly divided the team up, and Xing Shan was assigned to his group without any suspense. After all, he is the son of Shuntian Fu Yin, and Zhai Yi, a head catcher, has to look at him no matter what. OK.

After dividing the team, everyone set off in two groups, and waited until they were separated from the other group. Then Xing Shan suddenly remembered that in this way, wouldn't he be unable to guard the other group of prisoners?
In case the other group lost someone, wouldn't it be impossible for him to complete the task of taking all the eighteen swordsmen from the border town to the border without landing?

Thinking of this possibility in his heart, Xing Shan couldn't feel at ease in an instant. He followed Zhai Yi worriedly, thinking that he didn't want to leave or stay. This task really stumped him.

Luping Town is two villages away from where Xing Shan and the others are located. Even if they use the fastest speed, it will take them two days to meet Xiao Zheng and the others.

On the one hand, Xing Shan was worried that he would encounter an ambush on his side, and on the other hand, he was worried that there would be an accident on Xiao Zheng's side. The two emotions were intertwined, which made him restless all the way, and seemed to be full of thoughts.

Zhai Yi quickly sensed that something was wrong with him, and asked him, "What's wrong with you, why do you seem to have something on your mind?"

Xing Shan sighed, and said frankly: "I'm worried about Xiao Zheng's side. I don't know if there will be any problems."

Zhai Yi laughed and said teasingly: "Okay, you, you used to be indifferent to the task, but you didn't expect to be so caring this time. It seems that after drowning, you have indeed improved a lot."

Xing Shan scratched his head, his expression a little embarrassed, "I just don't want to embarrass my father."

Zhai Yi nodded slightly, and said bluntly: "Basically, you don't have to worry too much about Xiao Zheng. Although he is not a head arrester, in our group, his ability is already comparable to mine. I believe that the prisoners escorted by him, There will definitely be no problems."

After hearing what Zhai Yi said, Xing Shan reluctantly nodded, but he still felt a little uneasy.

This uneasiness made him realize that it was not enough for him to be strong alone, he had to have trustworthy people and helpers in order to cope with the task of having to act separately.

If it was Xing Shan in the past, he might have trusted Xiao Zheng and others, but the current Xing Shan has traveled from the 21st century. He has not dealt with Xiao Zheng and others too much, so he does not know their abilities. Naturally, there is no way to let go of the big rock in Zhai Yi's mind just by saying a few words.

The second day of escorting the prisoner passed smoothly amidst Xing Shan's apprehension.

On the third day, everyone was busy on their way, but one of the prisoners was panting violently in the prison car, looking like he would die at any moment.

Seeing this situation, Zhai Yi and the others stopped in a hurry and stepped forward to check his situation.

"My lords, our brother has wheezing, please send him to see a doctor, otherwise he will die soon!"

"Yes, my lord, please."

Hearing the pleadings of the prisoners, Xing Shan and the others looked at each other, and Zhai Yi made a decision: "Human life is at stake. Let's go to a nearby village to find a doctor first, so that he doesn't die like this."

"Yes, Headhunter Zhai."

Everyone nodded, and changed direction directly to the nearby village. In order to make the wheezing man more comfortable, Zhai Yi opened the prison car and released him alone, and he followed him to take care of him.

In this way, it can not only prevent the prisoner from dying in the prison car, but also ensure that he will not use tricks to escape on the way to seek medical treatment.

An hour later, everyone arrived at a nearby village, and quickly found a doctor in the village to help the prisoner see a doctor.

After the doctor's examination, it was confirmed that the prisoner was indeed suffering from wheezing, and he was not trying to play tricks.

In order to ensure that he would not get sick again on the road, Zhai Yi had to stop the team in this village to rest for a day, and wait until the prisoner's condition stabilized before continuing on the road.

When everyone settled down in the village, Xing Shan's eyelids twitched. For some reason, he felt more and more flustered. He always felt that this village was not as simple as they imagined.

In order to confirm his guess, Xing Shan walked around the place where the prisoner was held, trying to find out if there was an ambush around.

But no matter whether it was the prison car or the wheezing prisoner, there were no strangers around them approaching, and it seemed that there should be no accidents.

Seeing his nervousness, Zhai Yi walked to his side and asked in a low voice, "Have you noticed?"

Xing Shan was slightly taken aback, and asked with a blank face: "What did you find?"

Zhai Yi smiled lightly, and said with his hands behind his back, "The villagers in this village are not curious at all when they see the officers and soldiers escorting the prison carts? In the past, no matter where we escorted the prison carts, there were always people who didn't know what to do. Have you ever seen people like them who are neither curious nor onlookers?"

Hearing this, Xing Shan suddenly realized, no wonder he always felt that something was wrong, it turned out that the silence was too weird.

But since Zhai Yi knew that there was something weird here, why did he decide to stay here overnight?

Seeing the doubt in his eyes, Zhai Yi answered slowly, "If we just run away like this, they will definitely think of other ways to rob prisoners on the road. As the saying goes, it is easy to hide with open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows. It is rare for them to show up on their own initiative. And we know they are weird, why don't we take this opportunity to catch them all?"

Hearing this, Xing Shan finally understood. He secretly gave Zhai Yi a thumbs up, and said approvingly: "It's still Boss Zhai, you are thoughtful, I admire you."

Zhai Yi smiled faintly, raised his hand and patted Xing Shan's shoulder, "Learn slowly, you will be better than blue sooner or later."

Xing Shan laughed, not to mention, he was really looking forward to that day in his heart.

That night, Xing Shan and the others followed Zhai Yi's appearance and pretended to rest in their respective rooms as if nothing had happened.

It's just that in order to prevent being stunned, everyone took the detoxification pill specially made by Shuntian Mansion in advance.

In addition to these resting people, the officers and soldiers in charge of guarding the prison car also put on a lazy and relaxed appearance, so as to lure the enemy into the bait.

Around the time of the second watch, there was indeed movement in the village. Some villagers slowly surrounded the people of Shuntian Mansion from outside and inland, apparently ready to attack.

Xing Shan was lying in the room, silently listening to the movement outside, and quietly took out his Golden Dragon Whip. It seemed that his newly bought whip was finally going to be useful this time.
