Chapter 10: The Preference for Beards

It's dark at night.

The city of Huanglong is brightly lit.

Panicked people flocked from the streets, the clatter of horses' hooves resounded, and the torch-carrying bandits followed them all the way, setting off the street stalls and smashing the jars outside the liquor stores.

Wei Lai, who was supporting Sun Daren and pulling Liu Qingyan, had the intention to dodge, but the three people behind him also suddenly killed, although the battle was not as good as the bandit brigade of nearly 100 people, but the aura exuded by them was several times stronger than those bandits.

There were wolves and tigers in front of him, and Wei Lai couldn't find a foolproof solution for a while, so he could only pull the two of them to hide on the side of the street and wait and see what happened.

The bandits entered and plundered all the way.

However, the three of them stepped forward and crossed the panicked crowd, cut down several bandits who were looting in the crowd, and then crossed the Wei Lai people who were hiding on the side, and went straight to the thin man in the rich building, who was protected by many strong men.

Two of them held long knives in their hands, opening and closing, and the thugs of the gambling house symbolically resisted for a while, but after being cut down several of their companions, the thugs were terrified and scattered. The thin man was obviously panicked and wanted to flee with the crowd, but before he could take a step, the man with his face covered and a hideous scar on his face jumped out and cut off the head of the thin man with a knife.

"Let's go!" the man grabbed the bloodied, eyeless head, and the two companions beside him shouted.

The younger of them whistled, and three white horses galloped towards the street.

The three of them covered each other, split a bloody path among the thieves who had killed, and then turned on their horses and were about to leave.

But at that moment, the man who was the leader suddenly caught a glimpse of Wei Lai, who was pulling Liu Qingyan and the two to hide aside, a light lit up in the man's eyes, and the body that was already sitting on the horse jumped down suddenly, Wei Lai secretly said that it was not good, and he didn't have time to think about what kind of grudge he had with this man, so he wanted to dodge.

But yesterday's whim made the breath in his body disordered at the moment, and both the reaction and the speed were much worse than usual.

And the man's cultivation is also extremely good, after coming to Wei Lai's side, a hand knife was swung out, and it smashed straight into Wei Lai's neck, Wei Lai, who was already weak, was hit hard, and his eyes suddenly turned black, and the whole person passed out at that time.

The man grabbed Wei Lai's body, jumped on the horse's back, exchanged glances with his companions, and said, "Go!"

After saying that, the three of them drove side by side, the long knives flew over, and they fought their way out of the Yellow Dragon City, which was infested with horse thieves, and walked away.

......

"Big brother, is it him?" I don't know how long it took, after a jolting sensation that made Wei Lai dizzy, Wei Lai's consciousness gradually recovered, and before he could open his eyes, such a voice sounded in his ears.

His head was down, and his whole body was placed horizontally on the horse's back, Wei Lai probably guessed that he was taken away by those three people, but at this moment, his cultivation had not yet recovered, so he didn't dare to take the liberty, so he could only close his eyes again and wait for the time being.

"I guess so. The bearded man replied in a muffled voice.

"But there are so many people with the same name and surname in this world, in case you get it wrong......" The voice before sounded.

"Wei Lai. He babbled nonsense, then waved his hand and said: "Such a strange name, then there can be a second person to call it, it must be him!"

"Besides, there are only tens of thousands of people in Huanglong City, after all, there can't be tens of thousands of people, and there can still be a duplicate name. ”

The beard obviously belongs to Sun Daren's kind of person who is not very bright, or does not like to use his brain, he said this, waved his hand and said: "Fuck it, she makes my head hurt every day, whether he is a Wei Lai or not, stuff it for her, it should be done, so as not to cause me any trouble." ”

When the man in his early thirties heard this, he wanted to remind him of something, but when he saw the displeasure on his beard, he took back the words that came to his lips with interest. Then he turned his head to look at the masked man with the scar who followed at the end, and saw that the other party was holding the reins in one hand and a head in the other, he sighed again and said, "Then let's go, we will go to Huanglongzhai immediately." ”

......

Huanglongzhai.

This name made Wei Lai feel a little familiar - it was the place where the bandits gathered in Sun Daren's mouth!

Could it be that these three people were actually in the same group as Fang Cai's gang of bandits? But Wei Lai clearly saw that these three people had killed those bandits, but he was not merciless, and after a rush to kill, at least a dozen more bandits died in their hands. Or is there more than one group of bandits entrenched outside this Huanglong City? From their conversation just now, Wei Lai can be sure that they seem to have caught the wrong person.

After all, since his father's death, he has never left Wupan City in the next six years, so naturally he can't talk about forming a grudge with a certain bandit in Huanglongzhai hundreds of miles away. Obviously, the Wei Lai they were looking for was not him.

Thinking of this, Wei Lai couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, his luck was really too good......

It was possible to suffer such an unwarranted disaster because of his name.

But thinking of what Sun Daren said, this group of bandits is extremely vicious, and they have done this murderous and arson business around Huanglong City over the years, not to mention whether they can believe it after Wei Lai explained the misunderstanding to them, and even if they do, it is unknown whether they can let Wei Lai go. Now it seems that the best way is to delay the time and recover from the injuries in the body as soon as possible, so that there is another chance to escape.

Wei Lai, who had made up his mind, put away his other thoughts, and simply fell on the horseback and closed his eyes to recuperate, while secretly urging the power of blood and qi in his body to repair his disordered internal breath.

......

What was Huanglongzhai like, Wei Lai didn't see it.

After entering the village, he was imprisoned in a wooden prison by the beard, and the other party had neither the intention of interrogating him, nor the idea of torturing him, and after the lockdown, he ignored him. Wei Lai, who had already secretly prepared the draft in his heart and thought about how to delay time, was a little strange.

However, this is in Wei Lai's arms, he has enough space and time to recuperate his internal breath, if the other party is willing, Wei Lai does not mind staying for two or three more days, so that he can fully recover. At that time, I didn't dare to say anything else, if those three people could be regarded as the top combat power in this Huanglong Village, it should not be a problem to find an opportunity to escape from the ascension to heaven.

But after all, it is difficult to fulfill people's wishes.

On the second day, after eating the lunch that was delivered, the beard hurriedly pulled Wei Lai out of the wooden prison.

But the word pull is not used appropriately enough.

To be precise, it was the bearded man with four young girls of seventeen or eighteen years old who invited Wei Lai out of the wooden prison.

Out of the cell, the beard still didn't mean to talk to Wei Lai, but the four girls pointed at Wei Lai one by one, making Wei Lai feel uncomfortable. Wei Lai's heart was very strange, but out of the desire to pave the way for escape, Wei Lai could only secretly bear the strange gaze of those girls, while he carefully looked at this extremely vicious place in the mouths of Sun Daren and the people of Huanglong City.

But in fact, the so-called Huanglongzhai is completely different from the filthy, dark, and gangster-ridden cottage that Wei Lai imagined.

It is more like a village built deep in a mountain nest, and you can see people working in the fields, women washing by the stream, and children and yellow dogs frolicking around them. Most of the people I saw along the way smiled at the bearded man, and cast kind but curious glances at Wei Lai. You can hardly feel the slightest bit of the temperament of bandits from them, they are like ordinary ordinary people, no different from Huanglong City or Jinniu Town.

And if you want to say something different, it is the Huanglongzhai built on the mountain, and the town itself Huanglongzhai is located along the mountain. Although it is not large, it is estimated that it can accommodate hundreds of people, but the houses are located like steps along the mountain range, connecting into a long line, and looking up at the place where Wei Lai is, it looks like a dragon entrenched in the mountain range.

Following the beard, surrounded by many young girls, Wei Lai was taken to a hilltop spring that formed a pool.

"Go down. Washed it up. The beard said coldly, no longer the kindness when they met in Huanglong City yesterday, but with a heavy anger in his eyes.

"......" Wei Lai was a little embarrassed, although he made up his mind to obey the other party's wishes, but being watched by a few girls taking a bath inevitably made Wei Lai feel a little uncomfortable. Of course, this kind of discomfort is far less important than escaping from this place alive, and after hesitating for about a moment, Wei Lai has to "give in".

What is surprising is that the beard seemed to sense Wei Lai's thoughts, and he actually rushed to the four women before Wei Lai acted, and said to the four women: "You go and bring that dress first." ”

The girls were a little reluctant to hear this, and after hesitating for a while, they turned around and trotted away with a smile.

Wei Lai felt more and more strange here, whether it was these girls or the passers-by he had just seen, although his gaze did not seem to be malicious, but it always made Wei Lai's heart furious, thinking about it like this, but the unkind beard made Wei Lai more "comfortable".

Seeing the girl leaving, Wei Lai didn't twist, took off his shirt and jumped into the pool.

These days have been boring to travel, Wei Lai's body is indeed not very clean, plus he was locked up in that cell for one night, and there is a lot of dust on his body and face, but it is much easier to clean it.

After about a hundred breaths, Wei Lai was almost cleaned, he got up from the waterhole, and was about to go to get his clothes, but one foot suddenly stretched out and stepped on Wei Lai's clothes. Wei Lai was startled, and looked up, only to see that the bearded man was looking at him with a strange gaze at the momentβ€”he was squinting, condescending, and with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.

Even in the face of the Wupan River God who was close to the Holy Realm, Wei Lai couldn't help but shudder at that time, he remembered the rumors about some special habits of some powerful people in Tailin City, Wei Lai couldn't have imagined that he had just walked the rivers and lakes and met such a number one person......

His body subconsciously retreated into the pool, but the beard pressed forward step by step, just when Wei Lai wanted to escape, one of the beard's hands suddenly stretched out, pinched Wei Lai's chin, raised his head, and looked at Wei Lai at close range with strange eyes.

Wei Lai's cultivation has not yet recovered, and he has the heart to resist but can't hold back the powerful hands with a beard, and he can't move for a while.

Wei Lai secretly thought in his heart that if he bit his tongue and committed suicide now, he went to meet Lu Guanshan and his father and mother under Jiuquan, and heard that he was dead, would they laugh off his big teeth.

"Yes, it's pretty good-looking. The man's voice sounded at that time, but Wei Lai's heart was like ashes.

"No matter how clean up, you can be regarded as a handsome guy. ”

"Well, good vision. ”

"Be my son-in-law. ”

Wei Lai, who had already clenched his fists and decided to fight to the death, was stunned when he heard this, his eyes were round, and he just caught a glimpse of the girls who had gone and returned, holding a stack of bright red clothes in their hands, and walking towards him with a smile.
