  After the discussion, Song Guang ordered someone to arrange for Bai Yutang to stay in the military camp, but was refused by Bai Yutang. Song Guang did not force it and after a few polite words, Bai Yutang left first, only then did they start discussing business matters.

  Bai Yutang walked away, and Song Guang immediately asked Pang Xi on horseback: "May I ask the general manager, how is the Grand Master's body recently?"

  This question is very clever, if Pang Xi told Pang Ji, Pang Ji would definitely be moved.

  General, please don't be polite to me. The Grand Master has been in good health recently, although he no longer has any power, he is carefree and at ease. However, since the Grand Master is used to being busy, when he has nothing to do, he feels a bit uncomfortable. That's why we came on this trip, it's also something that the old man himself wanted to find to occupy his mind.

  Song Guang smiled: "Well, that's good. As long as the Queen Mother is in good health, I can rest assured. The Queen Mother's letter has already been delivered by fast horse, and I have prepared the salt early on. However, this road is not easy to walk, so the manager must be careful."

  Chen Yuan heard this and hastily asked: "General, we are not very familiar with this road, please point the way for us."

  Pang Xi had already introduced Chen Yuan to Song Guang, of course, Chen Yuan's identity was Fu Xiao Tian's master. As for this identity, Song Guang did not have the slightest doubt.

  After listening to Chen Yuan's question, Song Guang immediately said: "A hundred miles north of Datong is our garrison city called Wensheng. Although it's not as strong as Datong, there are still a few thousand soldiers stationed there. Don't worry, tomorrow is just the right time for the troops to go to Wensheng for rotation, and the leader is my trusted person, who is reliable. I have already contacted him, and he will escort you on this hundred-mile journey."

  Pang Xi and Chen Yuan said in unison: "Thank you, General."

  Song Guang waved his hand: "I can only do so much, from Wen Tong to the north, it's not our Song Dynasty's territory anymore. I won't be able to help you with anything else, you have to be careful yourselves."

  Chen Yuan said again: "Trouble General to give us a little guidance on the situation along the way."

  Song Guang has been stationed at the border for a long time and is still relatively familiar with the situation in this area, which can be said to be like an old friend.

  In summary, there are many bandits, and Song Guang alone knows of several dozen gangs. Most of these bandits were originally residents of this area, but due to the continuous war disasters, they could not survive, so they became bandits.

  It is precisely because they themselves cannot survive that they become more ferocious in their robbery. They vent their resentment towards this era and this society on the passing merchant caravans.

  There were also Liao soldiers disguised as bandits. They would often kill the entire merchant team, take away their goods to use as military rations, and behead them to claim military merit.

  What's even more unfortunate is that after Wen Tong, there were hardly any people on the road except for these bandits. It was as if one could be killed without anyone knowing how they died. Just like the previous person who handled Liaoguo affairs for Lü Yi Jian, all that was known was that he was hacked to death by a group of bandits, and there was no way to inquire about the specific details.

  The most dangerous part of this journey is over 300 miles and takes three days.

  Once they really entered the border city of Liao State, they would be safe.

  Chen Yuan knew about the situation on the road and was very worried that he might not be able to walk safely for those 300 miles.

  Pang Xi didn't worry, he just walked past.

  Seeing the fearful expression on Chen Yuan's face, Pang Xi comforted him: "Actually, it's not that difficult to walk. After we went to Wen Tong, we didn't set off immediately. There were some other merchant teams there, and everyone gathered together to take the road, with several thousand people each time. The smaller horse bandits didn't dare to come into contact with us, while the well-known horse bandit groups and the border Liaoyuan army would often make arrangements in advance. I've walked twice and nothing went wrong."

  Chen Yuan nodded at Pang Xi's words and smiled slightly. Although he didn't know whether what Pang Xi said was true or false, it made him feel a bit more at ease.

  Song Guang did not refute Pang Xi's words either, which made Chen Yuan feel that what Pang Xi said was true.

  A few people finished talking about the situation on the road, and Song Guang stood up: "It's getting late, masters, let's work hard now, take advantage of the darkness to change the goods."

  Chen Yuan replied: "Good, General, you are right."

  Song Guangchong shouted from outside: "Qi Wen, Qi Wen!"

  Before long, a general rode up and dismounted, entering the house and standing before Song Guang to salute: "General, you were looking for me?"

  Song Guang nodded, pointing to Chen Yuan and Pang Xi: "These are the friends from Bianjing that I told you about. Tomorrow morning, their goods will go with Wen Tong, and they'll take care of each other along the way."

  "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. Don't worry, the two of you. Tomorrow morning, we'll set out from the north gate. I'll go first, and you follow behind the troops. There won't be any mishaps."

  Qī Wén is over forty years old, with a standard military appearance, and there is a shallow scar on his face, proving that he has climbed to his current position through his own efforts.

  Chen Yuan stood up and thanked him: "Thank you, General."

  Song Guang was obviously very concerned about handing over to Pang Taishi, and he was deeply afraid that any mistakes would occur: "Master Chen, why don't you go with General Qi to the military camp for a trip, take a look at the location of the military camp, and if there's anything special tomorrow morning, just go find him."

  Chen Yuan knew this was the safest approach: "This is very good, I'm just afraid of troubling General Qi."

  Qī Wén smiled: "Being brothers, why is Master Chen being so polite?"

  The road was already very dark, with several soldiers holding torches leading the way in front. Chen Yuan and Qi Wen walked side by side behind them, exchanging some polite conversation.

  Before long, Chen Yuan saw a military camp appear in front of him, thinking that he had arrived at his destination.

  As expected, Qi Wen stopped in his tracks: "Master Chen, although we are all on the same side and shouldn't be formal with each other, this is a military camp after all, and it's really not convenient to let you in. How about this? Tomorrow, wait for my troops at the North Gate. If there's any other situation, I'll send someone to tell you, or you can come here to find me."

  When people say that, it's actually a way of sending someone off. In fact, the two parties didn't have much of a relationship to begin with. What needed to be said was said, what needed to be seen was seen, and now it's just time to leave.

  Chen Yuan bid farewell again and thanked him: "Thank you, General, for your help. When I come back later, I will definitely invite the General to drink wine."

  Qī Wén laughed: "Master is being polite, it's settled then, I'll take my leave first."

  Chen Yuanshuan's fists were clenched in a single grasp: "I won't see you off."

  Qī Wén led a few bodyguards towards the military camp, when Chén Yuán suddenly discovered a gaze directed at himself, hastily lifted his head, and met the eyes of one of the bodyguards.

  The night was very dark, and although the guards were holding torches, their faces only flashed in front of Chen Yuan for a moment. But in that instant, Chen Yuan felt that he had seen that face somewhere before.

  He tried to take a closer look again, but it was already gone. Recalling, he also couldn't remember when he had seen that face before.

  This thought left Chen Yuan standing stupidly in the dark night for a long time after Qi Wen returned to camp.

  Who is he after all? Where have I seen him before?
