Chapter 252 The Long Road

Shao Pingbo was stunned for a moment, then laughed again: "I'll be fine, you keep it for Niu Youdao!"

Su Zhao shook his head: "You are different from him. He has a certain degree of relaxation. It can be seen that he can retreat and practice for so long without coming out. In addition, he is a monk, and he can regulate his qi and blood by himself, and he is immune to all diseases. His body is not comparable to yours!"

He stretched out his hand and pressed lightly on his heart, "Remember! If you want to win, you have to take good care of your body. Whoever falls first will be the real loser. Only when there are people around can you have the last laugh!"

Shao Pingbo also pressed his hands on her chest, on the back of her hand, "I cherish my body more than you!"

"That's good! But I want to ask you a question, is it more important to kill cattle Youdao or get war horses? Should I deal with Niu Youdao first or get war horses first?" Su Zhao stared at him and asked.

Shao Pingbo was silent, as if he was in a dilemma, and asked, "Is there any conflict between the two things?"

Su Zhao: "Of course, if it is more important to kill the cow, I will personally go to the town to deal with him. If the matter of the war horse is more important, I will go to the state of Qi to sit in the town, and arrange for someone to handle the matter of the cow."

Shao Pingbo's eyes flickered, and he said slowly, "Of course it's the war horse. The war horse is the most important thing right now. If something goes wrong with the war horse, it will affect the entire Beizhou. Compared with the importance of the war horse, Niu Youdao's affairs can be postponed. What's more, the main purpose of Niu Youdao's trip may also be the war horse. He probably has no time to take care of me for the time being. It shouldn't be a problem if he slows down."

"Okay!" Su Zhao nodded and smiled, heaving a sigh of relief.

In fact, there was no conflict between the two things for her. She was just testing it out. She was really afraid that this man was too obsessed and regarded Niu Youdao more important than the whole Beizhou.

As everyone knows, in Shao Pingbo's heart, Niu Youdao has been determined to be the biggest threat to his Beizhou in the future.

In fact, he didn't pay much attention to the Yan Kingdom, South Korea, or the Great Zen Mountain. He has been entangled in these years, and he is already familiar with how to deal with these companies. The fact that he can gain a foothold in Beizhou has already proved it. So far, Niu Youdao is the only one who has caused him to suffer losses one after another, and he is deeply jealous, and he knows Niu Youdao's thoughts very well in his heart, and he will not let him go!

Some things may not be believed by others when they are told. Only the two sides who are equal opponents can go without saying and understand each other's thoughts.

If it is absolutely guaranteed that Su Zhao can get rid of Niu Youdao, he will definitely let Su Zhao get rid of Niu Youdao first, but he doesn't think Su Zhao can get rid of Niu Youdao so easily.

As he said to Su Zhao before, since Niu Youdao dared to come out, he would not be unprepared.

He was worried that Su Zhao and Niu Youdao would get entangled. Although the organization behind Su Zhao was very powerful, Niu Youdao thought that he was too dangerous, and he was definitely not an easy person. Once he was entangled by Niu Youdao, Su Zhao might be in trouble.

After considering and weighing, he naturally chose a safer direction.

Su Zhao left, put on a black cloak, and left through the side door.

Shao Pingbo was only sent to the side door, but not outside, for fear of being too conspicuous.

After witnessing Su Zhao disappear with his entourage, Shao Sanxing approached Shao Pingbo, "My lord, are you going back to the governor's mansion?"

Shao Pingbo turned around and led him back to the study. His eyes fell on the map again, and he raised his finger to the ground in South Korea. "This waterway may be opened. Can the key points along the waterway be guaranteed?"

Shao Sansheng said solemnly: "Don't worry, Eldest Young Master, the ones that need to be bribed have already been secretly dispatched, and they have been sent to check, there shouldn't be any problems."

"Should?" Shao Pingbo suddenly turned around, and said in a deep voice: "Don't tell me that it should be. Once it is activated, there will never be any mistakes. Once the things are seized by South Korea, South Korea cannot return them to us. This waterway is also exposed. There is no possibility of using it again. It will be a major blow to us, and we must be foolproof!"

"Yes!" Shao Sanxing replied, "I'll send someone to check again."

Shao Pingbo looked back at the map again, "Not only do we need to check, but we also need to try it out, and arrange for a group of ships to go there to see if there are any problems."

Shao Sansheng: "I'll arrange it now!"

"You must be careful in the details, there is no room for any mistakes in this matter!" Shao Pingbo stared back at him again, "Walk down once, and if any problem is found, solve it immediately. Make sure that this waterway is unimpeded, and make sure that there will be no problems when it is opened."

"Understood..." Shao Sansheng nodded in response, and hesitantly said: "If you really need to solve any problems, if you want to solve them quickly and prevent the noise from spreading, it is best to have monks to cooperate. Can the eldest son send me some people from Dachan Mountain?"

"Confused!" Shao Pingbo yelled, "Why did I hide this from Dachan Mountain from the beginning? Dachan Mountain has been asking me for money, and I have been crying poor. You don't know! If Dachan Mountain knows about this, Dachan Mountain will definitely figure out what I want to do. How can I hide it then?"

"Once I let them know that I have a lot of money to buy war horses, how do you want me to explain it? If Dachan Mountain asks me to hand over the money to them to deal with this matter, can I refuse? This matter can only be explained after the money is spent, so that we can find a reason to avoid delays, otherwise we can't get along with these vampires!"

"What's more, there are so many people in Dachan Mountain. Once this matter spreads inside Dachan Mountain, who can guarantee that the secret will not be leaked? This waterway must not be exposed!"

"Then..." Shao Sansheng wondered: "The relationship between Shang Qingzong and Niu Youdao is not clear, and it is inconvenient. Why don't we find some suitable personnel from the small sect below?"

Shao Pingbo pondered and said: "It's still the same sentence, you must be careful and careful in this matter, and people who don't know the details must not let him get involved. How about it, Song Shu and Chen Guishuo, there will be no problems with these two people, you can use it with confidence, I will let them be at your disposal."

Shao Sanxing frowned, "My lord, if there is a problem, it's just the two of them, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it! If it really doesn't work, please ask Ms. Su for help!"

Shao Pingbo pondered and said: "I have considered this matter, but the organization behind Sister Zhao is too complicated, and even Sister Zhao can't figure out the depth. It is okay to help out, but you have to keep a proper distance. You can't give them all the cards, so they must not let them know about this waterway before the matter is completed in Qi State. I have also explained to Sister Zhao."

"Song Shu and Chen Guishuo can solve small problems along the way. If you really follow the arrangement you said in advance, there won't be any problems. The two of them can deal with it enough. If you really encounter something that they can't solve, then find a reason and send someone to solve it point-to-point. As long as the whole line is not exposed, and it is broken down into separate incidents to deal with, without knowing other circumstances, others will not think about what we are going to do."

"Yes, don't worry, Eldest Young Master, I understand what to do." Shao Sansheng nodded in response...

As the sun was setting, the five riders rushed into a post station and stopped. After changing their horses, they rushed out of the post station and continued to gallop in the dust.

There was a carriage rushing in ahead, and the five riders quickly formed a line and passed the carriage, and then quickly changed their formation, forming a row and advancing rapidly. The expressionless Yuan Gang was the middle one.

Yuan Feng, Niu Lin, Yuan Huo, and Niu Shan followed each other.

Yuan Huo shouted: "Brother Gangzi, it's going to be dark soon. We ran for two days without closing our eyes. Everyone is tired. Let's find a rest station first!"

People who came out of Xiaomiao Village have changed. In the past, he would not say that he would go to the post station to rest. The idea of ​​going to the post station to rest was unthinkable when he was in Xiaomiao Village.

Yuan Gang looked back and asked, "Is it enough for you to rest for four hours?"

Yuan Huo said, "Enough is enough, four hours is enough."

Yuan Gang: "Then wait until the sky is dark enough to lose sight of the road before resting, and go on the road as soon as it is slightly bright tomorrow morning, try to use the time to hurry."

"Okay!" Yuan Huo responded with a nod, but somewhat strangely said: "Brother Gangzi, if we are hurrying like this, the Daoist will definitely not be able to keep up with us. Is it necessary to rush in such a hurry?"

Yuan Gang: "I don't worry about other messy people. We must rush to the destination as soon as possible, grab enough time to understand and investigate the situation at the destination, in case the Taoist needs it, and make arrangements for the brothers who rush to the front. Otherwise, there will be accidents if the mess is concentrated in a strange place."

Hearing what he said, the four of them looked serious, and immediately lost their opinions.

Niu Lin also began to accuse Yuan Huo, "Look at your cowardice, so tired? Let's ride horses all the way, eat and drink all the way, and you think about other brothers, lack of money and food, their conditions want to reach the destination on the appointed time, that is to work hard!"

Niu Shan said: "It's true that they will suffer a great crime for making such a trip!"

Yuan Gang looked back around, and said in a deep voice: "Although it is cruel, this is just a training session. Let them let go of their hands and feet. The various hardships along the way are the best training for them, and they are also precious wealth that they can obtain themselves! With the experience along the way, coupled with the ability to teach them, they can directly perform tasks when they arrive at the destination."

"For each of them, this is also a process of seeing their hearts and minds! Seeing the results and understanding the process is also an understanding of them, and we will know what they are suitable for in the future, which is convenient for future task assignments in actual combat!"

"More than a year of high-intensity training has taught them a lot of skills. As long as there are no major accidents, there should be no problem. If you have learned so much but can't even make it to the road, it's better to be eliminated as soon as possible, so as not to lose your life in the future! If someone is afraid of hardship and fatigue, and their will is not strong enough, and they give up halfway, then they will be eliminated as soon as possible. We can't tolerate such people in this group!"

The four looked solemn again, and said in unison: "Yes!"

Amid the sound of rumbling horseshoes, undulating mountains appeared in front of them, and the road obviously went straight into the mountains. Yuan Gang shouted: "What terrain is ahead?"

Yuan Feng quickly said: "The name of the place, Damanshan! The map shows that the official road is about 15 miles long. The terrain is complex, and there are long and narrow areas, so it is easy to set up an ambush!"

Yuan Gang waved the horse-cutting knife, holding the big knife slantedly in his hand, and knocked on the horse's belly with his heels, and accelerated to the front.

The four people on the left and right quickly held the chain crossbow made of refined steel in their hands, and hurriedly slung the crossbow arrows. At the same time, they changed their formation into a formation of geese. The left and right were on high alert, and rushed into the forest behind Yuan Gang.
