C29

In the past few days, Cardinal and Nie Laihong had exchanged posts almost every day. Aside from the two who came to the warehouse on the first day, no other escort had come to the warehouse.

Every day and every night, there were only two people and a group of constables guarding the escort.

Every day and every night, there would only be a few people discussing.

Talking heart to heart, talking, laughing and laughing, the few of them interacting, very happy.

Inadvertently. A week had passed and most of the people's injuries had recovered. The situation of the Dragon Gate Escort Office was completely new.

Today was the time to leave Yan City.

It was unknown when they would meet again.

When the people of the Dragon Gate Escort Office had packed up their luggage, Cardinal went to the stables and brought their horses out of the city.

By the time they reached the warehouse, Pan Tao had already left with his officers. Lin Zhi had already returned.

Seeing that it was Cardinal who had arrived, Lin Zhiren smiled and said, "Little Brother Cardinal, it has been hard on you these past few days. You have been coming with Young Sect Master to the warehouse to guard the escort every day, allowing us old fellows who have not learned anything to find time to rest for a while."

Cardinal did not react, as if he was thinking of something, "Mmm, mmm. "It's nothing, it's just a small matter, just a small matter."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, they quietly left the warehouse.

Nie Laihong also had no idea where he went.

Everyone in the Dragon Gate Escort Office was busy. There was only one idle person.

Only Cardinal did not know what to do after he had finished packing his luggage.

He was bored to the point of losing his composure. He was bored to the point of being uncomfortable.

Nie Laihong went to the prefectural city of Zhixian and asked for the official's help in return.

A government office that requests orders from the people, a government office that serves the people.

Nie Laihong brought along a case full of gold.

He personally carried it over his shoulder.

After entering the yamen, they did not head towards the main hall. Instead, they went straight into the side yard and found a person to ask for directions.

"May I ask where is the prefecture lord's manor?"

The man pointed the way, and Nie Laihong didn't waste his breath.

He went straight to the door of the county.

"I am the Dragon Gate Escort Office's Nie Laihong. I am here to pay my respects."

That county magistrate opened the door with a beaming smile, "Come in, come in."

Nie Laihong opened the chest. Inside the chest, the glittering gold was lying on the ground.

He said, "Sir Zhi Cheng, please help my Longmen Escort Office. I can't thank you enough. I can't thank you enough."

"This is my duty. Of course, of course." From time to time he would glance at the chest containing the gold.

Nie Laiqian pretended not to see his condition and continued, "Hmm, this time Constable Pan and his brothers have done very well. They did their best to protect our Longmen escort company's goods without losing them. I hope that the county can look out for us."

"Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay."

"Of course, of course. You can rest assured that I will not mistreat Constable Pan and the others. " Zhixian fast interface.

Nie Laihong also felt very uncomfortable staying here. He didn't want to stay any longer, but he still said, "In the future, there will be many opportunities for the Dragon Gate Security Office to cooperate with the Precious Land. I hope that Lord Prefecture Overseer will take care of us."

"Okay, okay, no problem."

Just as Nie Laihong walked out of the yamen, he saw Pan Tao rushing back. "Brother Ziyu, if fate wills it, we shall meet again. The paths of the martial arts world are very long. The mountains never change, and the rivers flow endlessly."

Pan Tao only said, "Take care." Afterwards, he brought people back to the yamen to report their orders.

Nie Laihong felt a little regretful in his heart. All good things must come to an end.

Then, he turned around and left the yamen. He left. If he came back, when would he be?

Pan Tao entered the main hall and waited for a while. Finally, the county magistrate arrived, wearing a smile that was as beautiful as the spring wind. The smile on his face couldn't even be described with words, and it seemed as if wrinkles had appeared at the corners of his eyes.

Pan Tao clasped his fists and said, "The goods of the Dragon Gate Escort Office are safe and sound, the constable Pan Ziyu is here to report to you."

Hearing these words, the county magistrate became even happier and said, "Good, good, good. This time Constable Pan has done an excellent job. We reward all of you!" "Fifty silver taels each, and a constable's price of a hundred silver taels. Everyone should go buy some wine or relax."

He then returned to the house with a smile.

He opened the box and a golden light shone on his face. Fifty silver taels per person and a hundred silver taels for the constable. He had still earned enough for twenty-something years of salary in one go.

He took out a gold ingot and gently stroked it with his hands.

Nie Laihong walked out of the yamen and returned to the Dragon Gate Escort Office encampment. Seeing Cardinal sitting on the doorstep, he was bored to death and even had some hidden grudges.

Ye Zichen asked with a smile, "Brother Cheng, what are you doing?"

"Today is the day we are leaving Yan City. I had wanted to say a few words to Pan Tao and the others and say my farewells, but who would've thought that everyone would have already left. You're not at the escort company, and I have nothing else to do, other than being in a daze, what else can I do?"

Nie Laihong recalled that he just saw Pan Tao at the yamen.

He said, "I just met Brother Ziyu at the yamen. I also said something about how the martial arts world will not decline for a long time!" Nie Laihong pretended to be mysterious.

"What are you talking about?"

Nie Laihong laughed out loud. "Qingshan will not change. We will meet again if fate wills."

A dark cloud hung over Cardinal's head. However, these words were indeed very artistic.

If Teng Qingshan did not change, the green water would flow continuously.

However, Huai Cheng was still a bit dissatisfied. He was about to leave, yet Pan Tao didn't even say a word of farewell.

Nie Laihong came over and put his arm around the Cardinal's shoulders and said, "Let's go, get ready, we're going to Luoyang. Luoyang is a bigger city, and it's also the fiefdom of the messenger king. There are countless games going on in the city. We'll go to Luoyang and have some fun with you."

Cardinal followed Nie Laihong and helped the Dragon Gate Escort Office with their tasks. In that moment, he felt as though he and Nie Laihong were brothers.

They had been getting along for the past few days, but this friend of his admitted it.

There was also a Cardinal.

However, he did not even say a word of farewell. He was completely silent and did not care at all.

Everyone from the Longmen Escort Office was ready. Everyone looked fresh and energetic. Just like when they left Shunjin Manor, they were about to leave the Yan City.

Nie Laihong mounted his horse and shouted, "Let's go!"

Then they all mounted their horses and headed out of Yan City.

Cardinal Cheng followed behind Nie Laihong as they left the city together with the escort team from the Dragon Gate Escort Office, heading towards Luoyang.

After exiting the city gates, the Cardinal still felt that something was missing.

After walking for a mile.

A group of people hastily followed behind him. A constable quickly asked, "May I ask if Brother Cardinal and Nie Laihong are with the team?"

Nie Laihong and Cardinal returned. If it wasn't that group of constables, what else could it be?

Pan Tao took out his horse and threw two jade pendants towards the two of them.

He said, "I was afraid to leave feeling sad, so I wanted to let you guys leave quietly. However, after thinking about it and feeling uneasy, I came."

Then, he cupped his fists and said, "My two brothers, take care. Keep the jade pendant properly. You can't not drink this cup! This time, we won't leave unless we're drunk! "

"Then, he spurred his horse to turn around and shouted loudly!" "If Qingshan does not change, then the rivers will flow, and the roads of the martial arts will be long. I will wait for you all in Yan City to come back and drink!"

Then the constables galloped back in a hurry.

It was as if a huge boulder had been lifted from his heart.

I also recognize you as a friend! Yan City owes me a cup of wine of love!
