A rugged mountain road near the river, the convoy of the Mei family in Jiangcheng is slowly passing by, the chariots, the horses are Xiaoxiao, the figures are building, and the people and horses are in a hurry. For some reason, the convoy of fifty or sixty people did not have the slightest majestic and heroic spirit, but looked out in panic like a frightened bird, the ruts sometimes slanted, the traces of people sometimes wandered, and the whispers of a few guards behind could be faintly heard.

"Yesterday, Miss picked up a young man by the river, and heard that he was suspected of being a mountain bandit from Sanyuan Mountain, and said that he was going to be executed on the spot, or Miss pleaded with mercy to save his life. ”

"Why don't I know, you kid is talking nonsense, right? Even if there is such a thing, Miss will not show mercy, you must know that the Mei family has a blood feud with the bandits in Sanyuan Mountain. ”

"Yesterday, when the convoy was arguing over that kid, you went to buy food, no matter who saw a young man in his twenties lying by the river, he wouldn't think he was a good person, you must know that most of the bandits in Sanyuan Mountain in the past few years are young people, that area is not a good place, which young man from a good family will go there?"

"Then the young lady still saved him? If he was really from Sanyuan Mountain, wouldn't he lead the wolf into the flock? Miss is not usually very smart, how could she make such a mistake?"

"Listening to the manager's speculation, the young lady probably wants to control that person in her hands, and then pry out some secrets of Sanyuan Mountain, and the situation of the forces in Jiangcheng will not be too difficult, after all, in this Jiangcheng region, Sanyuan Mountain is enough to fight against the soldiers of a county. ”

"Alas, I don't know if the convoy can return to the city safely this time, although there is a martial arts master home team comparable to the seventh-stage person, I still don't feel very steady. ”

......

In a certain carriage, a man in a linen shirt slowly woke up, yawned lazily, and wanted to make a sound, only to find that the surrounding scenery was no longer familiar, and a girl with a black ponytail looked at him head-on, but the eyes were not lacking in sharpness, and the fair and regular face sometimes revealed the vitality of youth.

The girl hugged her shoulders to her chest and said angrily: "It's not that I doubt you, the area on the beachhead by the river is originally the activity range of Sanyuan Mountain, and no one will believe that you are not a mountain bandit." At that time, the captain of the convoy said that he would kill you on the spot, and I tried my best to save you, and the reason why I had this kindness was not because I didn't know my position with Sanyuanshan, but because I had other considerations: if you are a mountain bandit, as long as you can help us find the bandit in Sanyuanshan and the recent plan, I can guarantee your safety and promise you a considerable amount of money, which is definitely much better than the treatment in Sanyuanshan; if you are not a mountain bandit, but have other identities, I can also be regarded as doing a good deed, and I have accumulated yin virtue for my brother who died early, as long as you are diligent in the future, and be the chariot guard of my Mei family, the treatment is also very good。 ”

Hearing the girl's long speech, the man in the sackcloth wanted to argue something, but was stopped by the girl's flicking of his sleeves, and the girl said: "You don't have to have any opinions now, you can consider the conditions I proposed, and when I return to Jiangcheng, I will come to greet again." After the woman finished speaking, she picked up a gray leather skirt, lifted the curtain of the carriage door very elegantly, slowly lifted her steps, and disappeared in front of her.

The man in the sackcloth smiled bitterly and laughed at himself: "It's really troublesome to be drunk, I don't know what's going on, and also, where did Shen Yiwu go, I hope nothing happens." This woman is very graceful. What he didn't know was that this very graceful woman might accompany him through countless mountains and rivers in the future.

The man in the sackcloth was Jiang Ming, who was drinking on the abyss on the border between the two countries that day, he squandered his heroic years and Shen Yi's worries, and almost forgot that there was such a thing as an enemy, as for what happened after that, he had no impression at all, not to mention that in this cold winter sunset, not to mention the separation with Shen Yi's worries who promised to take care of himself.

"Drunk and misguided! The military spirits sent by Uncle Gao are too real, this drunkenness is several days!"

Outside the carriage, the convoy was moving slowly, and suddenly heard the sound of a mountain rock rolling, and more than a dozen horses suddenly neighed in a riot, and at the same time, hundreds of figures appeared on the slopes on both sides, all holding swords, guns, swords, halberds, and shouting with a fierce face, and a big flag with the word "Sanyuan" written on it was erected high, swaggering left and right against the wind.

"The convoy gathered in the center, and the guards were armed outward, defending the carriage in a half-moon shape. Stepping out of the crowd of the convoy, the gray and cyan uniform was different from the others by the word "total" on the chest, with his dispatch, the convoy was no longer as flustered as before.

"It turned out to be a new team manager, I don't know where you got the confidence from, dare to go against my Sanyuan Mountain, which force in Jiangcheng is not respectful to me, is it because of your dozens of car guards?"

Yue Zhiyan, the head of the team, was hired for eight hundred silver, but he was not confused but was already a martial arts master of the seventh stage, so he naturally had his own arrogance, but considering the entrustment of the head of the Mei family, he did not dare to fight directly with the mountain bandits, so he lowered his momentum slightly, and said with a kind smile: " Although there are many conflicts between Sanyuanshan and the forces of Jiangcheng, it is by no means irreconcilable, and everyone in the world is for profit, even if it is a famous hero of Sanyuanshan, he can't escape the word interest, the younger brother is in charge of the entire team, and he doesn't want the two sides to fight each other, and when the time comes, both sides will have losses, and it is not that you and I are willing, I am willing to pay 3,000 taels of silver to buy this road money, what does the hero think?"

The thin man laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to be a transparent person, since you have already explained the pros and cons, I don't have much difficulty, as long as you give five thousand taels of silver, then I will let you go today." ”

Five thousand taels of silver? I didn't expect this mountain bandit to be so insatiable, and directly increased two thousand taels on the original chips, which suddenly made Yue Zhiyan a little difficult to ride a tiger, and when he heard the whispering of many subordinates, the already yellow face was even more difficult to look at. However, when he looked back at the carriage in which Miss Mei was riding in the rear, he had some support in his heart, as long as Miss Mei was successfully sent back to Jiangcheng, the Mei family could bear the big loss. Thinking of this, he was overjoyed again, even though he was very confident in the strength of his seventh-stage human position, he was still a little afraid of using a sword in his heart.

"Five thousand taels is five thousand taels. I hope that the hero will keep his word, let our convoy pass, and don't be embarrassed more. Yue Zhiyan said with a smile. The momentum of the dozens of car guards on the side instantly fell, not only because of the director's compromise, but also because of the domineering and cruelty of this world.

The thin man laughed again, full of mockery and contempt: "I didn't expect you to be able to bear this, then I'll be honest, five thousand taels is not enough for your convoy to pass, unless, hand over the people in that carriage." ”

Everyone followed the man's point and looked, the carriage was riding the Miss Mei family, and they couldn't escape being noticed by any concealment, and the group not only sighed.

Yue Zhiyan frowned slightly, and still smiled reluctantly: "The hero is joking, there are only some goods in that carriage, and there is no one, please don't embarrass the hero, I will make my own decisions again, can I send an extra thousand taels of silver to the hero?"

"Fart!" the thin man scolded angrily: "Lao Tzu smells that fat powder hundreds of miles away, and he pretends to be garlic with me, there must be a wonderful beauty hidden in this carriage, if you don't hand it over, I will wash your entire convoy with blood." Hundreds of mountain bandits on the hillside instantly leaned on and shouted, "Bloodbath, bloodbath!" The sound was extremely loud, and the entire convoy was terrified.

Yue Zhiyan exhaled heavily, took out a long knife with some nervousness, and shouted: "Sanyuan Mountain is inevitably too arrogant, today I will try your edge, the old rules of the rivers and lakes, the battle will win or lose, if I win, take your people away." ”

The fighting generals said that the two sides are fighting, the main generals are opposite, and the wins and losses suddenly change.

The thin man smirked and rode his horse, his spear pointed obliquely, and he was extremely rebellious: "Okay, as you wish, let me see what you are capable of!"

The two camps fight generals, the victory or defeat often depends on the strongest two, the beginning of the war, for the generals to clash, the losing side is exhausted, without a fight and the loss of five points of troops, and the winning side if the reinforcements are tens of thousands, the overall situation wins or loses from this view. Therefore, when there is a huge disparity in the strength of the two sides, the strong one is forbidden to fight against the generals, and the whole army is facing each other; only when the strength and strength of the two armies are similar, the fighting generals can break their stalemate and quickly divide up and down.

I saw that the bandit leader of Sanyuan Mountain rushed out on horseback, a spear red tassel fluttering, and in an instant it was to stab at that Yue Zhiyan, and its momentum was far faster than what he encountered when he was learning art, and he was panicked at the moment, raising the long knife to resist, but unexpectedly, the bandit's marksmanship was as coherent as the wind, advancing heavily, and the momentum was better than a move. Yue Zhiyan's legs clamped suddenly, and the horse under him neighed in pain, and the four hooves also bent slightly to dodge the sweeping shot, Yue Zhiyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly rode the horse back to escape, describing it as extremely embarrassed.

Seeing that the captain of the team was about to lose, the entire team was also panicked, and some of the weak-willed ones lost their strength to hold their weapons. On the other hand, the bandits of Sanyuan Mountain all waved their flags and shouted, and they ridiculed and sneered.

The bandit leader reined in the horse's head, did not chase after him, and sneered: "Just by you, how can you stop my Sanyuan Mountain Divine Soldiers from descending from the sky? If you know the current affairs, you will lower my mountain, and if you are in vain about morality, you will end up with your cheap life today!"

The three kings of Sanyuan Mountain, the real eighth-stage martial arts masters, the people of the convoy only reacted at this time, how unfortunate they were, they actually encountered this murderous and bloodthirsty demon, not to mention Yue Zhiyan, a seventh-stage master, even the real eighth-stage master did not dare to take his edge lightly.

Just when everyone sighed, the curtain of the much-anticipated carriage slowly opened, and a woman walked out with lotus steps, wearing a neat gray leather skirt, a bunch of tall and delicate black ponytails, and a pair of eyes as clear as glass.

The three kings of the mountain bandits did not turn their eyes sharply, and stared directly at the extremely beautiful woman, and there was a tremor in their hearts that they had never felt before, and they would occasionally be merciful after killing for many years, and they would do many injustices for the bandits, but at this time he expected the change in himself, and he would no longer be able to use violence.

"What a beautiful girl, like a fairy. ”

"Yes, if I can kiss Fang Ze, I am willing to give up my twenty years of life!"

"Be quiet, there are three kings here, this girl will definitely not be able to take our turn, don't make a taboo. ”

"Look at the eyes of the three kings, the three kings have not been fishy all these years, and today I am afraid that they are going to break the vows!"

Hundreds of mountain bandits pointed at the woman and commented, most of them were insults and dirty words, the woman listened to them one by one, but her face was not moved, she pulled out a short scimitar from her waist, her five fingers became more and more nervous, and she looked at the mountain bandits on both sides of the mountain road, and said: "It turned out that the three kings were here in person, Yuqi was rude, no wonder the team manager newly invited by Daddy did not have the strength to fight back, and thank you to the king's subordinates for showing mercy." ”

After listening to Miss Mei's words, the head manager Yue Zhiyan's embarrassed face changed pale, extremely ugly, and all the car guards also looked at him in unison, which made him even more ashamed.

Yu didn't show a good smile, and said: "Miss is polite, please forgive me for being abrupt before, seeing that Miss is dressed as the daughter of everyone in the city, I don't know which lady it is?"

The woman smiled lightly, as if there was a pause: "The little woman's surname is Mei, the Mei family in Jiangcheng, Mei Kuan's daughter, the youngest in line, named Mei Yuqi, has the king ever heard of it?"

I don't listen to this, my expression is shocked, the grievances between the Mei family and Sanyuanshan are greater than the hatred of any two forces, five years ago, Sanyuanshan gathered troops in Jiangcheng, the eldest son of the Mei family Meikuan took armor to meet the enemy, and supported the general of the building with the strength of one person, and the fighting general was three days, and there were dozens of fighters, none of them were defeated. Later, Sanyuanshan and the Eagle Party of the Qin Dynasty conspired with the Jiangcheng regime, first defrauded the camp of Mei Kuan's eldest son with a secret leak, and then broke his heavily armored soldiers with flint and sulfur fire bombs against war, and then used tricks to coerce the people of Jiangcheng to lure them into the trench of ten thousand arrows, and were pierced by the mountain bandits' ten thousand arrows and died.

I only heard the Miss Mei family say again: "My eldest brother died for the survival of the people of Jiangcheng, and after ten thousand arrows pierced his heart, he was still tortured by Ling Chi, and his flesh and blood were hung on the maple tree of the people of Jiangcheng by you, in order to deter my Mei family and the forces of Jiangcheng." The Qin Dynasty is now fighting for many years, and its politics is rotten and the civil and military forces are rebelling, and although we have not received the help of officers and soldiers, after his years, there will inevitably be more heroes like my brother to drive away all the bandits and defend our city!"

Although Miss Mei is a woman, but this morale-boosting words are more heroic than the fierce generals, most of those guards are members of the Mei family's headquarters, and they are angry by this, holding swords in their hands, and shouting sadly, and the original numerical disadvantage was filled at once.

Yu didn't look around the convoy with complicated eyes, even if he was so abused, he was not the slightest annoyed, his eyes were fixed on Miss Namei's family, and he sighed: "Okay, as long as you are willing to follow me, I will release your convoy today, and from now on, there will not be a person from Sanyuan Mountain blocking the way, how about it?"

There have been a few whispers among the people of Sanyuanshan, some people "Our people and horses have the advantage, as long as the blood washes the convoy, whether it is money or women, it is not ours", there are also humane "The three kings are afraid that they want to really conquer the beautiful lady, so they say this, maybe they will call us to kill the convoy when they turn their heads", and there are also humane "Everyone knows the grievances between the Mei family and Sanyuanshan, and the woman does not look like a survivor, keep her by her side, maybe one day a knife will be revealed" I haven't heard of it, but I haven't heard of it.

"The brute of Sanyuan Mountain, our young lady Jin Zhi Yuye, how can you be a bloodthirsty reckless man, get out of the way, otherwise when the people of my Jiangcheng arrive, no matter how many kings you are, you will inevitably die." It was an elderly coachman who spoke, but he was at the forefront under this naked coercion. All the chariot guards were sad and angry, and they all raised their weapons and wanted to fight.

Seeing this, Mei Yuqi hurriedly stopped the elderly coachman and chuckled: "Fu Bo, as well as all the righteous men of Jiangcheng and the Mei family, you stand back for the time being, if my life can be exchanged for the lives of more than fifty people, then I will share my father's worries." The old coachman known as Fu Bo shouted "Miss", but he stopped talking, he saw the determination in Mei Yuqi's eyes, just like the eyes of the eldest son of Master Mei Kuan when he went out of the city.

Mei Yuqi looked over without a trace of sadness: "It's not very good, I hope you can talk and count, otherwise I will commit suicide, and the explosives tied to the carriage will also ignite, and then you will not only get nothing, but you may also lose your life!"

A look of embarrassment flashed in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said: "As long as you are obedient and obedient, don't beg for death easily, I will do what I say." ”

"Okay! I order, in the capacity of Miss Mei, that the convoy should change its head and tail and move forward slowly, and in order to reduce the losses, it should no longer be scattered. Mei Yuqi looked around the convoy, and the chief manager Yue Zhiyan didn't know where to go, afraid that he had escaped by taking advantage of the air.

There were many loyal guards in the convoy, who wanted to stop Mei Yuqi like this, but were stopped by her stern look, and they all understood that this seemingly weak woman would sacrifice herself heroically for them in exchange for the opportunity to escape, and she would give her life again for the people of Jiangcheng in the form of her brother. How this does not make them awe and shame!

"Miss, we still have the strength to fight, and we can't compromise with these executioners!"

"Listen to my orders, the losses of the Mei family and Jiangcheng can be reduced by one point, if you still treat me as a young lady, you will quickly go back with the goods. ”

Mei Yuqi didn't distinguish between joy and sorrow, she slowly walked in the other direction of the convoy, holding the knife at her waist in her left hand, and she used more force.

"Brother, Xiao Qixun is here for you. ”

She closed her eyes, as if she wanted to forget all the memories of this life, and when she opened her eyes, she was about to become the plaything of some executioners. But when he opened his eyes, he saw a not strong arm in front of him, it was a man in a cotton shirt and linen shirt, no more than twenty years old, but the deep light in his eyes was better than that of some old men who had worked all their lives.

He smiled, "I don't need to get to this point yet, I'm here." "My brother was also this gentle face back then, under the cold west wind of the Jiangcheng City Gate, he stroked a wisp of green silk from her, and smiled extremely ordinary: "Xiao Qi, whether it is Jiangcheng or the entire Yuanye Realm, no matter where you are going, I am here!"

"No, you are, you are ......" She was surprised to see the linen-robed man who had been regarded as a spy of Sanyuan Mountain standing in front of her, like a thick and tall wall.

The man in the hemp robe was naturally Jiang Ming, in the spirit of not being contaminated with right and wrong, but when he encountered such a bad thing, he had to reach out to stop the woman who was like fire and water, and then picked up an abandoned iron rod casually, and said softly while walking towards the place where the bandits gathered: "Count me on helping you." ”

"Be careful, he is an eighth-stage martial arts master!" Mei Yuqi hurriedly persuaded, but the figure seemed to have not heard of it, walking straight without hesitation, but he was a person he didn't know.
