The wind is cold in the north and the snow is heavy.

The first snow of early winter came a little earlier.

A first-line gorge on the Liangzhou Road.

The heavy snow in the valley flooded the road, and the traces left by the battle a month ago had long been flattened by the wind and sand, and were again covered by heavy snow. In the valley at this time, not to mention human traces, even animal traces are gone.

The valley was empty and silent, and the wind passing through the valley became more and more poignant.

A not luxurious but very sturdy carriage came quickly from the northwest direction, the horse pulling the cart, tall and majestic, four flying hooves steady and powerful, the hair around the body was black and shiny, it turned out to be a rare Mobei dragon horse, this Mobei dragon horse is a military horse equipped with a first-class cavalry in the Rong Army, and it is actually used to set a car, but it is really rare.

The driver of the car, his head and face were covered by a cloak, and his face could not be seen clearly, and his body was tall and Kongwu wrapped in thin clothes, like a man. The coachman dragged the reins with one hand and waved the horsewhip with the other, and he didn't drink it in his mouth, only occasionally whipped to drive away the Mobei dragon horse in front, and the whip gesture was chic and smooth, and the strength was calm.

In such a snowy day, it is rare to drive a horse in the wilderness, and it must be known that in such weather, not to mention the ordinary people who are confined at home, even those who are the most controversial in the world, who are hated and envied by the world, and who are criticized by the world as "profit-seekers", will also avoid such snowy weather, unless the profits far exceed the risks that need to be taken, it is another matter.

The people in the carriage seemed to be in a hurry, and did not stop at the mouth of the first line of gorges, and plunged into it. The sound of the howling wind, mixed with the crushing of wheels and the sound of horses' hooves churning in the snow, broke the silence of the canyon.

On the snow behind the carriage, there were two long wheel prints, and the horseshoe prints in the middle of the two wheel prints were messy and disorderly.

At the southeast exit of the canyon, there is already a group of people and horses blocking the intersection, a total of eighteen horses, sitting down is all the Mobei dragon horse, the people on the horse are all green clothes, the posture is mighty and straight, and the majestic is entangled. They had long knives in their hands, and they all covered their faces with scarves, leaving only two eyeballs out, staring closely into the canyon.

At the head are a man and a woman.

The powerful coachman in the carriage pulled the reins sharply, and dragged the galloping horse stiffly, and at the same time pressed down with both feet, blocking the carriage moving forward by inertia, and the means were crisp and neat, without a little mud and water.

The place where the carriage stopped was fifty paces away from the horse team at the mouth of the canyon.

At the moment when the carriage stopped, the man led by the horse team pulled out the knife in his hand, only to see that the knife was three feet two inches long, the handle was one foot three inches long, and the blade was thick on the back, it was an armor-piercing knife equipped with the elite cavalry of the Rong Kingdom.

For a time, eighteen silver knives reflected the snow, and the momentum skyrocketed.

A man and a woman at the head glanced at each other, as if they had a heart in their hearts, and at the same time urged the horses to sit down, and rushed towards the carriage in the canyon, and the sixteen horsemen behind them also started immediately, and dozens of horses' hooves flew over, not only trampling the snow on the ground, but also trampling the sound of the hollow valley.

When only twenty paces away from the carriage, a man and a woman at the head jumped up from the horse's back at the same time and flew into the air, the man held the knife in both hands and raised it high, slashing towards the carriage like splitting a mountain, and the woman held the knife in one hand and swept towards the carriage with a knife.

The two swords were wrapped in the wind and snow, and rushed towards the carriage with the momentum of thunder.

In the face of the sudden attack, the coachman still sat still, without the slightest intention of dodging. With his feet straining, the carriage he sat in sank down, and then his fists were raised slightly, and he suddenly swung forward, intending to fight his two knives with his fists.

The twin blades are like two lightning bolts that pierce the sky, swift and fierce, and the fists are like two land dragons, thick and fierce.

The sharp sword and the brave fist met in the air, making a dull sound, like the muffled thunder of the ground.

The two knives broke through the fist and hit the coachman's chest hard, and the coachman's body slammed into the carriage behind him, only to hear a bang, and the carriage was split apart by two knives, scattered in the snow around it, and the scene in the carriage was suddenly revealed.

A woman dressed in black sat upright, her right hand stretched out against the driver's back, and a dark red wooden box in her left hand.

A man and a woman in the air used the force of collision to jerk over two somersaults in the air, and then fell back on the back of the Mobei dragon horse that followed up, and the two of them stiffened with one hand, dragged the horse that was sitting down and was rushing forward, and stopped ten steps away from the carriage.

The sixteen horsemen who followed behind them still moved forward, forming an encirclement of the two men in the carriage with only the bottom of the carriage remaining.

The coachman's cloak was also shattered by the knife, revealing his true face, a middle-aged man with a dark face and a thick black beard, who covered his chest with one hand, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and his face showed pain.

In the unfancy fist and knife confrontation just now, the middle-aged man's pair of fists was obviously defeated, and the result was that the body was severely injured, if it wasn't for the black-clothed girl behind him to resist him, the middle-aged man would definitely be like the carriage of a carriage to be slashed by the sharp knife momentum.

The girl in black slowly withdrew the hand on the middle-aged coachman's back, looked around, and although strong enemies were around, her mediocre and slightly sallow-skinned face did not show the panic that the other party expected, but her face was as pale as water, and she looked very calm.

A man and a woman in Tsing Yi put away their knives, as if they were not in a hurry to attack, but just stared at the dark red wooden box in the hands of the girl in black, and a trace of greed flashed in their eyes.

The girl in black took out a fiery red silk scarf embroidered with the pattern of a fire phoenix as if no one was around, she wrapped the dark red wooden box in a silk scarf, and then carried it on her back, and after doing all this, she slowly stood up.

The girl in black has a mediocre complexion, her slender posture is really extraordinary, and the girl in black is taller than the average man, and she looks quite proud and erect in the wind and snow.

"White horse shines on Tsing Yi, today's account is recorded in Jingzhou Jingfu. The girl in black said coldly.

The man at the head covered his face with a scarf, although he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but the pair of eyes exposed outside showed a hint of playfulness, and said in a tone full of indifference: "What is Jingfu, it's just a dog under the command of the King of Chu, even if the old King Chu himself came to this Northwest Road, I won't take it in my eyes." ”

I have long heard that the bandits in the northwest are unruly and lawless, and they have always respected their strength, especially the horse bandits in Daqingshan White Horse City, which is adjacent to Liangzhou and Bingzhou, are the most among the bandits.

This gang of horse bandits has a rather loud name, called "White Horse Zhao Tsing Yi".

When the Gale Dynasty was still stable, the defenders of Liangzhou and Bingzhou had several joint efforts to send troops to suppress, but the result was quite unsatisfactory, not only did not exterminate it, but lost the troops and suffered heavy losses, and after these battles, it made the name of White Horse City and "White Horse Zhao Tsing Yi" louder.

Regarding the disrespectful remarks of the leading man, the middle-aged coachman bared his teeth and scolded angrily despite being seriously injured, while the girl in black behind him seemed much calmer, and just said calmly: "Remember what you said today." ”

Despite the roar of the wind and snow at the mouth of the valley, the words of the girl in black still clearly reached the ears of the eighteen horsemen who stopped them, and the response to the girl in black was the sixteen sword movements that came by the wind and snow, these sixteen sword movements were much weaker than the sword momentum of the man and woman who was the leader just now, but the combination of the sixteen sword movements attacking from different directions made the scene much grander.

In a moment's time, the girl in black whispered: "Do it!"

Then he tore off the dark mahogany box wrapped in a fiery red silk scarf on his back, and threw it at the man and woman at the head along with the silk scarf. The middle-aged coachman kicked hard under his feet, and the whole person was like an arrow from the string, wrapped in a fiery red silk scarf, and his fists were swung out with all his strength in the air, targeting the man and the woman.

After the girl in black threw out the fiery red silk scarf package, she grabbed a sword in her left hand and reflexively went in the opposite direction to the middle-aged coachman.

After dodging the sword, the girl in black was already holding the sword in her hand, and with a slight shake, a few sword flowers flashed in the wind and snow, and the next moment it evolved into a few bright red blood flowers, which looked extremely charming in the snow.

Before a horse could react, there were a few more blood holes in his chest, and the person also fell off the horse.

The girl in black fell lightly on the back of the Mobei dragon foal like a jet-black cloud, she grabbed the reins with her left hand and pulled it hard, turned the horse's head, and at the same time swung a sword from her right hand to the left and right, forcing Tsing Yi to retreat, the horse closest to her, and then clamped the horse with both legs and ran in the direction she came.

When the remaining seventeen horsemen reacted, the Mobei dragon horse carrying the girl in black was already galloping twenty paces away.

The man at the head jumped up to meet the package thrown by the girl in black and the middle-aged coachman behind him, the man first flicked the flying package to the woman behind him, and then also swung his fists to meet the middle-aged coachman's fists, and then the strength was even stronger.

The middle-aged coachman flying in the air was like being struck by a thunderbolt, and his originally sworn expression turned into a look of horror in an instant, and froze, his majestic body was torn apart by the huge force, and the flesh and blood were sprinkled all over the ground, leaving scarlet pictures of different sizes on the snow at the mouth of the valley.

It seems that the things have been obtained, and the purpose of this robbery has been achieved, after killing the middle-aged coachman, the remaining seventeen horsemen present did not make any more moves, and let the girl in black beat the horse and leave.

The man in the lead had already driven back to the woman's side, watching her open the dark red wooden box wrapped in a fiery red silk scarf, both of them opened their own pairs of eyes, staring closely at the movements of the woman's hands, the woman's hand that was peeling off the fiery red silk scarf was trembling slightly, obviously very excited.

At the moment when the lid of the dark red wooden box was opened, the excitement on the faces of the two was unmistakable, but in an instant, their faces became surprised, lost, and finally angry, and the two pairs of eyes showed anger that could turn snow into three feet.

The wooden box contained a stone, an extremely ordinary stone.

This kind of stone can be seen everywhere on the Northwest Road, and they obviously fell for the "stone for treasure" plan of the girl in black.

The man at the head suddenly raised his head, looked in the direction of the black-clothed girl's escape, and pulled the reins in his hand hard, and the Mobei Dragon Horse who sat down was suddenly dragged and hissed, and then in a man's roar, he opened his four hooves and chased in the direction of the black-clothed girl's escape, the woman followed, and then the remaining fifteen horsemen.

For a time, in the deep and narrow first-line gorge, the horses galloping on the snow were like a sweeping dragon, and the roaring sound of horses' hooves shook the snow on the cliffs on both sides.
