Chapter 169 Arrival in the North
"Yes, sir, thank you very much!"
"Li Xuan, you stay. The others can go and rest first."
"Yes."
Jiang Ling asked after everyone else had gone down.
"Li Xuan, are you originally from the Northern Territory, or did you come there later?"
Hearing his master's question, Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
"I am originally from Dongzhao, and was exiled to the northern border with my former master five years ago.
However, the original masters of the subordinates are no longer around.
If you want to know the general situation in the northern border, I know a thing or two.
After all, I have lived in the North for five years."
Jiang Ling nodded and started asking.
"How many people are there in the North? What forces are there? Which ones are good and bad?"
Hearing these questions from his master, Li Xuan immediately straightened up.
"According to my understanding, there are over 30,000 indigenous people in the North. Adding the exiles from other countries and the refugees every year, the total number is no less than 60,000.
There are three forces in the North, the largest of which is Beiming Pavilion, which is responsible for assassin missions. It is said that there are more than a thousand of them, all of whom are desperate criminals.
As long as they had money, they would kill them. Once they killed, the whole family would be killed, no matter whether they were men, women, young or old, or even babies, leaving no one alive.
They are also extremely arbitrary in the North. Anyone they like, regardless of gender, age or status, cannot escape.
People in the North are also the ones they fear the most.
However, the place they lived in was the largest and best in the North and extremely luxurious.
The other two forces, Yilongtang and Huya Gang, are relatively small gangs with about a hundred people.
Everyone's initial goal was to huddle together for warmth and survive together.
However, there were also cases of oppression of the people.
No one was killed.
There are three villages outside the North, which are mainly inhabited by exiles.
Almost all of them are servants. The masters who are rich build their houses directly on the streets of the North Border." After saying this, he glanced at Jiang Ling.
"That's all I know. When you go to the northern border, you must be careful of the Beiming Pavilion.
They have people at the gate, and they will know as soon as you arrive.
They especially like to rob people who go north."
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Ling, Yue Qianli beside him, and the two children.
The appearance of these people is their target.
After listening to this, Jiang Ling almost knew what to do next.
grab?
I'm really afraid they won't come.
"Okay, I roughly understand everything. Thank you for your hard work!" After saying that, he looked at Yue Qianli.
Then he said to Li Xuan, "The man next to me is the head of our family, Yue Qianli, and he is also your master.
Thank you for your concern. As your master, I am least afraid of being robbed by human traffickers. I like it very much.
As for you, just guard this post station well. Just be loyal, and I will take care of the rest for you.
Your wages are ten taels per month. You can make good arrangements for the others. As for the wages, you decide them."
When Li Xuan heard Jiang Ling introduce Yue Qianli's name, he was stunned for a moment.
Although he was just an ordinary person, he had heard of Yue Qianli's name, the God of War of Xiling who defeated their Dongzhao Kingdom.
How did you appear in the North?
They don't look like they were exiled. The whole family is dressed neatly and gorgeously, and the children are fair and plump.
How does it feel like exile?
He shook his head as he thought about it, he didn't believe it.
Never mind their reasons. They are his masters now, and he just needs to do his job well.
Perhaps the North has begun to change from now on.
It was his chance that he could be trusted at this moment.
Maybe I can get my revenge in the future.
He collected himself and nodded seriously.
"Thank you, sir. I understand and will make all the arrangements."
"Okay, you can go down and rest. As for the subsequent arrangements, I will not take care of them. You can go to Butler Chen to get some start-up capital later.
We plan to leave tomorrow morning.
From now on, if you have any problems at the post station, you can come to the northern border to find us."
After listening to this, Li Xuan saluted with his fists clasped.
"I understand." He then left the room.
After everyone left, only the four of them were left.
Jiang Ling asked as he looked at the little cub sitting obediently on the chair.
"Are you hungry, son?"
Seeing that his father was finally done, the little guy turned over and got off the chair, trotted to Jiang Ling, threw himself at his legs and hugged him.
"Dad, you are finally done. You have worked hard. Have a cup of tea." He said seriously.
Jiang Ling, who originally wanted to tease the child, was instantly moved.
"Wow, my son is truly the best son in the world. I really want to drink some hot tea."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cup of tea was handed to his lips.
It turns out to be more than a thousand miles.
Jiang Ling smiled and took a sip.
"Wow, this tea is so sweet, it's no wonder that it was brewed by the prince himself."
When Yue Qianli heard this, he poured another cup and handed it over.
"If it tastes good, drink one more. You've said so much, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. Everything is worth it for our good life."
Jiang Ling enjoyed it very much. He was happy to have a beautiful woman serving him tea.
And I have a chubby child in my hands, so happy.
At this time, a piece of chestnut cake was handed to my mouth.
Xiao Haozi also refused to give up. He also wanted to take good care of his brother.
"Thank you, Xiao Haozi. Ahwu... it's delicious."
With so much love, he is a little too busy to handle it all by himself.
At this time, An San's voice came from outside the door.
"Master, Master, the meal is ready."
After hearing that it was time to eat, Jiang Ling, who had been talking for so long, finally felt really hungry.
So, he suddenly picked up the little cub on his lap.
"Come on, let's go eat!"
What happened in the backyard was unknown to the two people in the lobby of the inn and the cook who had returned to his room because the kitchen was borrowed.
The two people in the lobby were confident that as long as this group of people entered the backyard, drank water, and ate the food prepared by the chef, they would come to pick them up later.
The cook was not worried at all about the kitchen being borrowed. He put enough medicine in the water tank, so they could not escape as long as they used the water in the tank.
You don’t even have to cook, so why not!
Who knew that they were so blindly confident that even their death would be blind in the end.
They didn't know how they died.
After finishing the meal, Jiang Ling remembered that there were three annoying people.
It would be really disgusting if these evil people didn't die.
Then he ordered the blood-sucking vine to deal with them.
He didn't want to see those people again, even for a moment.
He found it disgusting and an eyesore.
Only the blood-sucking vine does not despise their blood, so they should be grateful.
At least it's somewhat useful.
( ?????)?- - -??
After a comfortable night's rest, the group started on the last leg of their exile journey after breakfast the next morning.
Fortunately, the weather was fine and it was sunny for five consecutive days.
Finally, I looked at the dilapidated and stingy city gate in front of me.
"Northern Territory!"
They finally arrived.
