Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

"What, are you ready to use force?"

Chu Mo took two steps back and hid behind Yang Paifeng.

After hearing this, the guard snorted coldly and immediately shouted to Bo Jinsu in Miao language.

After Bo Jinsu and others heard what the guards said, they didn't hesitate at all. They directly drew their sabers and surrounded Chu Mo and others.

Erniu on the side saw this and hurriedly said to Chu Mo:

"Sir, he just said that their clan leader is interested in the refined salt recipe in your hand and wants to keep you."

Chu Mo raised his eyebrows and looked around, and found that there were many Miao people running towards him in the distance.

He turned to Erniu and asked, "Is there any other exit from this market?"

When Er Niu heard this, he immediately understood what Chu Mo meant and hurriedly replied:

"Sir, there are a total of eight intersections here. The place we just entered was guarded by the Miao people. There are also seven other entrances guarded by the Yi, Bai, Dai, Zhuang, Dong, Hui, and Buyi people."

"Originally, it was not allowed to do anything in the market, but now we are on the territory of the Miao people, and they do something to us. Although other ethnic groups will have objections, because we are Han people, no one will stand up and speak for us. of."

"But if we run to the center of the market and reach the middle area, we are not allowed to take action there. If the Miao people want to continue to hunt us, it will be a challenge to the authority of each ethnic group."

After hearing Er Niu's words, Chu Mo didn't hesitate at all and shouted to Yang Paifeng and the two secret guards: "Quickly decide, let's go to the market in front first."

When everyone heard this, they immediately drew their weapons and rushed forward.

In just one encounter, Yang Paifeng and the two secret guards knocked down the three of them.

Taking advantage of the gap between everyone's fighting, Chu Mo immediately led the donkey, followed Yang Paifeng, and ran towards the market center.

Lu Tuoding's eyes moved slightly as he looked at Chu Mo's back. Just when he was about to make a move, he caught a glimpse of Er Niu staring at him from the corner of his eye.

Before Lu Tuoding could speak, Erniu took the lead and said:

"Boss Lu, what do you want to do?"

Lu Tuoding was stunned for a moment, then became furious. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Chu Mo in front of him suddenly turned around and shouted:

"What are you two still doing there? Why don't you hurry up and follow us?"

Being interrupted by Chu Mo, Lu Tuoding naturally couldn't say anything to Er Niu and hurriedly quickened his pace, wanting to follow him.

Unexpectedly, Er Niu's figure rushed towards Chu Mo faster than him, and then inserted himself directly between the two of them, giving Lu Tuoding no chance to get closer.

Lu Tuoding looked at Er Niu's back fiercely, cursed secretly, and could only follow him.

The movement here quickly attracted the attention of the surrounding people.

When some Miao people who were trading saw this, without saying a word, they drew their sabers, rushed over, and quickly joined the battle group.

Yang Paifeng and the others watched as more and more people gathered around them, and they didn't stop much. They fought and retreated, and quickly chased in the direction Chu Mo left.

Just as he was about to rush to the center of the market, suddenly, a group of strong men rushed out of the diagonal, blocking Chu Mo's way.

Seeing that the road ahead was blocked and the pursuers were following up, Yang Paifeng and the others were already exhausted.

Chu Mo gritted his teeth, took out a piece of explosive from his arms, twisted the cracker, lit it, and threw it directly.

There was only a loud bang, followed by a puff of smoke rising into the sky.

The Miao people were all startled by the movement. They stopped what they were doing and looked towards Chu Mo.

The three of Yang Paifeng took this opportunity to quickly deal with their opponents, then returned to Chu Mo and confronted them.

After the thick smoke dissipated, the several strong men who had stopped Chu Mo before were all as black as ink, their clothes were messy, and their bodies and faces were covered with scratches, but they did not suffer much damage.

Chu Mo clicked his tongue twice. It seemed that the explosive he imitated was still not powerful enough.

If it really doesn't work, I can only find a solution from Chu Xin in the future.

At this time, the movement here also attracted the attention of the other seven tribes.

However, because it was the territory of the Miao people, they could not interfere. Therefore, they just watched from a distance and no one came to ask.

Seeing the Miao people on the opposite side approaching him again, Chu Mo hurriedly shouted to the other ethnic groups who were watching the excitement in the distance:

"I am a businessman from Chang'an. I am passing through here and want to do some business with you. Is this how you treat your guests?"

After the words fell, everyone in the distance just whispered to each other, but no one came over.

Seeing this situation, Chu Mo became anxious and shouted again:

"I'm willing to pay 100 taels of silver, 20 kilograms of refined salt, and long-term cooperation qualifications."

The people on the other side still didn't respond.

Erniu on the side hurriedly came to Chu Mo and said:

"Sir, those are all barbarians, and not many of them can understand Chinese."

After hearing what Er Niu said, Chu Mo immediately widened his eyes, glanced at the other party angrily and cursed:

"You didn't tell me earlier if you knew."

Er Niu looked at Chu Mo aggrievedly: "Sir, it's useless even if I say it. This is the place of the Miao people. Even if other tribes are tempted, they won't get involved just because of this thing."

"Is it that serious?"

Chu Mo asked puzzledly.

"Well, it's more serious than you think. If they get involved for no reason, then a war between tribes will inevitably begin."

"Don't forget that they usually dislike each other, but when it comes to outsiders like us, their guns are definitely the same."

Hearing what Er Niu said, Chu Mo's heart gradually began to sink.

At this time, more and more Miao people were gathering around them. It was undoubtedly a fantasy to try to break out with just a few of them.

With a sigh, Chu Mo pushed Yang Paifeng away from him, stood in front, and shouted to the previous guard:

"Hey, you don't speak Chinese, can we talk?"

The guard had a stern look on his face, pushed aside the crowd and walked out:

"You've killed so many of us, and now there's nothing left to talk about."

In the short exchange just now, Chu Mo's side had already caused seven deaths and eighteen injuries to the Miao people.

The two sides have already forged an ever-lasting feud.

If they hadn't wanted to learn how to make refined salt from Chu Mo, they would have rushed up and cut him into pieces right now.

"Since there is nothing to talk about, does that mean we are already fighting to the death?"

Chu Mo asked, staring at the guard.

"Yes, the moment you choose to resist, you are destined to die here."

The guard said almost ruthlessly.

"Don't you still want the method of making refined salt? If I didn't find it, how could I still give it to you?"
