Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

The bandit known as Erniu looked at Lu Tuoding in surprise, and finally looked at Chu Mo.

Chu Mo nodded and said, "He is right. There are indeed only two of us now. You are indeed safe."

Hearing Chu Mo's words, Lu Tuoding and Er Niu both breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Mo had a mocking smile on his lips, looked at the incense that was almost burning out and said:

"I'm a person who pays great attention to promises. If I give you half the time to burn the incense, you have to wait until the incense is burned out. So, I don't think you have any objections, right?"

After hearing this, Erniu immediately shook his head like a rattle and waved his hands repeatedly to express that he had no objection.

Just when Lu Tuoding on the side was about to express that he had no objection, he suddenly noticed the ridicule on the corner of Chu Mo's mouth. He immediately condensed in his heart and glanced around.

Then he looked at the unconscious Ergouzi on the ground, alarm bells ringing in his heart.

Then, without any hesitation, he picked up the bloody stone that he had just thrown away, rushed over with a strong step, then raised the stone in his hand, and hit Er Gouzi on the head with all his strength.

There was just a click, and Ergouzi didn't even let out a scream. His head was smashed by Lu Tuoding, and the red and white blood flowed all over the floor.

Chu Mo just watched coldly throughout the whole process without making any sound.

When Er Niu, who had been paying attention to Lu Tuoding, saw that he had killed the unconscious Er Gouzi again, he suddenly felt frightened.

You know, whether it is the Erhuzi who died before or the Ergouzi in front of him, they are all the people the leader said he wanted to unite with.

But now they were all killed by the leader himself, and they were all killed without any hesitation after using them.

Thinking of this, Erniu involuntarily leaned towards Chu Mo, as if this could dispel some of the fear in his heart.

After solving the last hidden danger, Lu Tuoding threw away the blood-stained stone in his hand, wiped his hand casually on the grass on the ground, and then looked at Chu Mo with a smile on his face and said:

"Master Chu, what's up? Can we announce the results now?"

Chu Mo pretended to be confused and asked: "Old Lu, I just said that you and this brother are the final winners. Why, didn't you hear it just now?"

Uh. . .

Lu Tuoding just felt ten thousand grass and mud horses galloping past, and was about to refute.

But he suddenly woke up. Yes, the other party had clearly announced the result just now. Could it be that he had made a mistake?

But when he thought of the unconcealed mockery at the corner of Chu Mo's mouth, he suddenly understood.

The other party is plotting. If he kills Er Gouzi, he will be separated from Er Niu.

But if he doesn't kill Ergouzi, when the time comes, the other party can use the excuse that there are three living people on the field to kill him.

Thinking of this, Lu Tuoding turned a little pale and began to regret his decision this time.

Can you really get what you want from the other person?

Seeing that the other party was in a daze, Chu Mo curled his lips and said:

"Lao Lu, it's getting late. Let's get on the road quickly and wait until we reach the market ahead to rest."

At this time, Shi Lu Tuoding no longer had the calmness he had before. After hearing Chu Mo's words, he nodded dully, and then prepared to lead the way without saying a word.

But Erniu on the side suddenly stopped in front of Chu Mo, knelt down towards Chu Mo and said:

"Sir, can you give me some time to bury them?"

Chu Mo was a little surprised that Erniu would do this. After thinking about it, he nodded: "I'll give you a moment to burn incense."

As he spoke, he said to the two secret guards behind him:

"You guys stay with him and hurry up."

Seeing that Chu Mo agreed, Erniu didn't say a word, but directly kowtowed to Chu Mo a few times, then climbed up without saying a word, found a dead branch, and dug a hole in the ground.

Upon seeing this, the two secret guards directly handed over a long knife that they had captured before, and each of them also took a long knife and dug it up.

Lu Tuoding looked at all this awkwardly and wanted to go up to help, but he couldn't move his feet.

Soon, a not very deep hole appeared on the ground. Erniu gently put the corpses of the bandits into the hole, and then covered it with a layer of lush sand.

Seeing this, Chu Mo asked later:

"Two cows, right? If you bury them hastily like this, aren't you afraid that wild beasts will dig up the place at night and drag out their bodies to eat them?"

Er Niu looked at Chu Mo with red eyes and said:

"Sir, I didn't think so much. I just wanted them to be buried in peace. The situation you mentioned may happen, but maybe it doesn't, but as long as I don't see it, it means it doesn't happen."

Chu Mo slapped his forehead, come on, he is a self-deceiving guy emotionally.

With a sigh, Chu Mo raised his chin towards Lu Tuoding and said, "Old Lu, let's get on our way."

Lu Tuoding took a deep look at Er Niu, and then walked forward.

Soon, the group of people climbed over a mountain and saw the market at the foot of the mountain that Lu Tuoding mentioned.

Seeing the busy market with people coming and going at the foot of the mountain, Chu Mo waved his hand and led everyone directly down the mountain.

When the group of people arrived at the gate of the market, they were stopped by several strong men guarding the gate.

The strong man babbled and then blocked the way of several people with a sword in his hand.

Before Chu Mo could speak, Lu Tuoding took the initiative and started talking to the strong men in the same language.

Seeing Lu Tuoding and others chatting happily, Chu Mo poked Er Niu on the side and said:

"What are they talking about?"

Erniu was stunned for a moment, then said nervously:

"Sir, the gatekeeper at this entrance is a Miao. He just said that we are Han and we are not allowed to enter here."

Chu Mo nodded and continued to ask: "What are Lao Lu and the others talking about now?"

"Boss Lu was telling the Miao man that he knew an elder of their Miao tribe and hoped that the other party would be accommodating and let us in."

"It's just that the Miao people don't seem to buy it. They want us to pay a certain fee before they are willing to let us in."

Sure enough, as soon as Er Niu finished speaking, Lu Tuoding walked towards Chu Mo with a constipated look on his face and explained the matter, which was almost the same as what Er Niu said before.

"What do they want as entry fee?"

Lu Tuoding opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare.

Chu Mo snorted and looked at Er Niu aside.

Erniu swallowed, then looked at Lu Tuoding cautiously, and then said:

"Sir, they want each of us to hand over a pound of salt before they let us in."
