Chapter 597
"withdraw!"
"Get out!"
"It's people from other hills!" The bald, one-eyed man was the first to escape, and then the entire army was routed, leaving behind thirty corpses, and then fled into the jungle.
At this moment, the rain of arrows stopped, the jungle swayed, and a large group of fully armed people rushed out. They were dressed neatly and were definitely not bandits.
Guan Ning was surprised. Not a robber?
They seemed to have no ill will towards Guan Ning and the other two, so Guan Ning did not take any action.
At this time, the crowd parted and a man in brocade clothes walked out with a daisy on his head, looking like Ximen Qing.
"Hahaha, Brother Ning, we meet again."
Guan Ning's eyes widened, slightly surprised: "It's you."
"Hahaha, it's me." Hua Wuque smiled and approached: "I heard the noise and came over to take a look. I didn't expect it was you two, so I immediately sent someone to take action."
"How's it going? Are you okay?"
Guan Ning thought, what a coincidence, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Brother Hua, everything is fine."
"Thank you."
"No, no, no. When I see injustice, I draw my sword and help." Hua Wuque had a bright smile on his face, holding a feather fan in his hand, trying to establish a tall image in front of Lou Xinyue.
But Lou Xinyue basically didn't even look at him.
Guan Ning glanced meaningfully at the men behind Hua Wuque, who numbered about a hundred in total, all fully armed. "Brother Hua, you're putting on quite a show."
Hua Wu Que smiled and said, "When you're out and about, especially doing business, in a place like this where no one's allowed to go, you definitely have to bring some people with you, otherwise you'll just end up giving away everything to the masters in the mountains."
"I just said, it's not safe for you to go on your own."
"Since we've met, why don't we go together?" he invited again.
Although it is necessary to be on guard against others, if you refuse the help from others, you will seem ungrateful.
Guan Ning said: "In that case, then I would rather obey your command respectfully."
"Hahaha, okay, then get on my carriage. We can chat and the journey will be quite interesting. It will take several days to get out of the Qintu Mountains." Hua Wuque said with a smile.
Guan Ning declined politely, "Brother Hua, let's forget about this."
"My wife can't stand the bumps of the carriage, riding a horse is better."
"How dare you be so ungrateful!" A muscular man scolded with an unhappy look on his face.
"Shut up!" Hua Wuque growled.
Then he bowed and said, "Brother Ning, I am sorry for not disciplining him properly. Please forgive me."
"Since Madam can only ride a horse, then I will ride too and accompany you."
The magnanimity and easy-going nature he displayed made it difficult for people to be unfavorable to him.
"Okay." Guan Ning smiled as he glanced at the people from the Hague Chamber of Commerce. He couldn't help but feel curious. They dared to bring goods across the Qintu Mountains. Judging from their words and actions, they didn't seem to be good people. What was their background?
Then, the group set off.
Guan Ning and the other rode ahead, accompanied by Hua Wu Que, a man who was quite talkative and could be described as knowledgeable in everything from astronomy to geography.
He can even talk about the things happening in the Qintu Mountains in detail.
I don’t know what’s going on, but since the people from the Hague Chamber of Commerce came, the bandits in the mountains seemed to have fled at the sight of them. I walked for ten miles without encountering any danger.
The bandits who were chased away did not come to seek revenge, which made Guan Ning feel very magical for a while.
"Brother Hua, aren't you transporting goods? Why does it seem like your team is not escorting anything?" Guan Ning asked with a smile.
Hua Wu Que glanced back and sighed, "Oh, don't mention it. This time, the government gave me a hard time. They wouldn't let me go unless I paid. I was so angry that I canceled the deal."
"It's getting harder and harder to survive in this world now."
"The government is unkind, and the people are suffering."
Guan Ning nodded, this was the truth.
"I've suffered quite a bit of loss on this trip. If I were lucky, I could have picked up some gold in this mountain." Hua Wuque looked very distressed.
Guan Ning laughed dumbly: "I think this requires some luck."
"Yes, destiny always forces you to do what you want."
"Let's go through our Yangguan Road. Before sunset, we should be able to reach Yerengang in Qintu Mountains. How about we rest there for a night?" Hua Wuque said.
