"What, you know?" asked Lin Zhenliu in surprise.

Liu Yanran pursed her lips, "I don't know each other, I have been in contact with it before, and I have some impressions." ”

Zhou Ping nodded, but smiled, "I didn't expect to see you here, it's really fate." ”

"Eh, I'm not interested in you, don't say anything about fate or not!" Liu Yanran hurriedly waved her hand, and then urged Lin Zhenliu and Ling Feiyu for a while, and then walked straight away.

Only the two who were still in a state of ignorance were left.

Zhou Ping didn't care either, and smiled slightly, "She used to be like this." Hurry up!" He turned and walked away.

Lin Zhenliu looked at Zhou Ping's back and suddenly shouted

"Hey!"

"Huh?" Zhou Ping put her hands behind her back, turned around, and looked at Lin Zhenliu with a smile.

"Are you really not going with us?" Lin Zhenliu asked with the corners of his mouth raised.

"The road is long and long, follow you to protect me?" Zhou Ping asked rhetorically.

Lin Zhenliu didn't know what to say for a while, why did he suddenly feel that this scene was a little strange and familiar.

"Let's go, stupid!" Zhou Ping shook his head and smiled, and continued to leave.

Lin Zhenliu looked at Zhou Ping's hand that raised and said goodbye, and he didn't know what it was like for a while.

"Let's go!" Ling Feiyu picked up Lin Zhenliu and went outside.

......

After resting in Loulan City for two days, the group of cultivators who went to Zhou finally assembled and set off again in the early morning.

Outside of Loulan City, you need to pass through a period of loess plains, and you have to cross mountains and mountains before you reach the Zhou Kingdom. This section of the road is more difficult and dangerous than any of the previous ones. It can be said that from here on, it is the time when pedestrians are really tested.

But no matter how difficult the road is, as long as it is profitable, someone will take it.

For example, the merchant travelers and herdsmen who traveled back and forth between the Shang and Zhou countries all the year round, after years of trekking and perseverance, have also opened up a relatively safe and easy-to-walk road in the midst of hardships.

But everyone knows that the safety and ease of walking here are limited to careful situations.

Probably for the purpose of taking care of each other, Baili Xi and Shangguan Wan'er, the leaders of the trip, chose to go with the business travelers who were also going to the Zhou Kingdom.

When this group of casual cultivators, who were not very large in number, merged into the ranks of cross-border traders, they were shocked to find that there was such a large group of people who were trekking dangerously in order to make a living under the unknown lofty mountains.

The number of people has become larger, and Baili Xi didn't care much about whether the formation was still the same, so at this moment, the scattered cultivators scattered in twos and threes. Although they are all casual cultivators, they can be regarded as "big businessmen" in the business travel with almost no cultivation, after all, money and silver are too easy for them to get, and the difficult thing is the spirit stone.

Lin Zhenliu, Liu Yanran and Ling Feiyu were sitting on a carriage transporting tea at this time, and the boss of the horse was also from Zhongjing City, about two or three grades of cultivation, but he behaved like ordinary people, according to him, "On this road, there are only two kinds of people who are most likely to survive, one is either cultivated to the sky, and the other is powerless." ”

"Cultivation is to the sky, the thief can't beat it, the hand is powerless, the thief disdains to kill, as long as he doesn't resist, in the end he will break some money. ”

The cultivation mentioned by the owner of the tea carriage here is Tongtian, in fact, it means that the monks above the seventh or eighth grade, after all, most of the people who usually come into contact with ordinary people, and those who have a slightly higher cultivation are rare.

"Will thieves appear often?" Ling Feiyu asked from behind.

"Yes, of course there will be, but it's not with violence, as long as you give the passage money, you will basically go with it. The boss said, he didn't take it very seriously, it seemed that he was used to it.

"Isn't the government in charge?" Ling Feiyu asked again.

At this time, the boss hadn't answered, it was Liu Yanran who answered, she smiled coldly, and said, "Hmph, what can you manage? It's already good not to be embarrassed." ”

"This girl is right, the border between the two countries, and the mountains and forests are treacherous, so we don't encourage walking, but in order to live a mixed life, we have no choice but to do it, and we don't dare to ask the government to take care of it. The boss said, with a little sadness.

"The government doesn't care about anything, it's all for you to get used to," Lin Zhenliu was lying on the tea leaves and looked at the sky, then turned over and sat up.

A few people came at the front of the caravan, and they were informed from front to back

"The front is the Tailiu Mountains, everyone huddle together and follow the team closely!"

"The front is the Tailiu Mountains, everyone huddle together and follow the team closely!"

"The front is the Tailiu Mountains, everyone huddle together and follow the team closely!"

The owner of the tea carriage suddenly became a little nervous, slowed down, and waited for the vendors who were transporting all kinds of goods behind him to come forward, and then walked side by side again, and in about a stick of incense, the originally lengthy caravan was lined up, and each row was about five carriages or wagons, and there were thirteen rows.

"What is this for?" Lin Zhenliu asked the owner of the tea carriage.

After setting up the formation, the boss said, "Shaoxia doesn't know, the Tailiu Mountains run through thousands of miles from west to east, and there are often groups of demon beasts that come and go, and our caravan is from south to north, if the team is too long, it often happens that the migratory demon beasts are scattered in formation or attacked, and the losses are heavy." Later, some smart merchants came up with such a method and walked away in a group, so that the migratory monsters passing by would think that we were also migrating and would not come to disturb us. ”

"There is such a magical thing?" Ling Feiyu was amazed, although he used to live in the north, and occasionally dealt with people from neighboring countries, but most of them were dealing with merchants and countries, and there were very few opportunities to go on the road in person like now, but he didn't know that there were such interesting things.

At this time, Shangguan Wan'er and Baili Xi also came to Lin Zhenliu's position with other loose cultivators.

"Gather for casual cultivation and count the number of people!"

Baili Xi shouted loudly, and soon regrouped the twenty loose cultivators, which happened to be near the owner of the tea carriage.

"Coaching, what's wrong?" Lin Zhenliu asked.

Shangguan Wan'er said with a smile, "When we were in front, some business owners said that it was for the sake of insurance, they knew how much we would cultivate, so please ask us to help take care of the caravan side, although the migration of demon beasts will not cause large-scale chaos, but sometimes the movement of individual demon beasts in some parts is a little unavoidable." ”

"To be on the safe side, from now until after the mountain range, we are to keep walking, and after the mountain range there is an inn for passing caravans to rest, and if anything really happens, we will meet there. ”

Baili Xi glanced at Lin Zhenliu, and then said loudly to everyone. It was quick to get a response.

Shangguan Wan'er was in a good mood, and at this time she said a few more words to Lin Zhenliu and others, although she said it to Lin Zhenliu and others, but the scattered cultivation gathered together could actually be heard.

Shangguan Wan'er said, "This is a section of the road that connects the Shang Kingdom and Zhou, and it belongs to the Tailiu Mountain Range, which is the most dangerous, so everyone is ready to fight, and it is better to be prepared than to sit and wait for death." ”

"Coaching, is this the way you used to go to Zhou Guoke?" Lin Zhenliu suddenly became a little curious.

Shangguan Wan'er smiled and nodded, "It was much more dangerous before than now, and there were fewer people, but now it's much better, so don't worry." ”

As he was talking, there was a dense tide of water yaks and beasts with 10,000 heads from the west. Water yaks are extremely dependent on water, and during this season of the year when there is a drought in the west, they migrate in herds to the humid east.

"Wow"

Among the caravans, there were also merchants and travelers like Lin Zhenliu and others who were traveling for the first time, and when they saw this water yak almost all over the plains in front of the mountain, they couldn't help but let out bursts of amazement, which was really spectacular.

Not to mention ordinary people, even Lin Zhenliu and other cultivators had to sigh when they saw this scene.

After the tens of thousands of water yaks walking slowly came vigorously, they saw the caravan grouped like this, probably thinking that it was a herd of migrating beasts, so they slowly stopped, and the water yaks closest to the caravan were only a few zhang, but they just stopped obediently.

Compared with the shock and vigilance of Lin Zhenliu and the others, one of them, who seemed to have been here for many years, was much calmer and said nonchalantly

"Don't look at the tall and burly water yak, look fierce and vicious, in fact, the brain is very stupid, at the beginning, but it also scared us badly, but after a few more encounters, I found that the water yak is the most unplanted. Just like now, when you see us in groups, horses and carts, they must think that we are some powerful monsters, but in fact, we are just ordinary merchants. ”

Lin Zhenliu was a little strange when he heard this, but he didn't say much, just frowned slightly and looked away. But the merchant seemed to speak with great force, and the contemptuous voice came into his ears again,

"Once I was with a few buddies, buddies who like to taste fresh, and I was so bold that when we passed by, we stabbed a knife at a water yak......"

"What, what did you say?" Yousanxiu didn't seem to hear clearly, and asked again.

"Stab the knife, that's right, it's to stab the water yak, and directly stab the water yak to death. Yes, he died, lying on the ground, motionless, bleeding all over the ground. And guess what? The water yaks were indifferent, and just watched their companions die, but they didn't dare to move, just watched us continue on our way. ”

"Brutes are brutes, they have no feelings, their companions were stabbed, and they were just spectators, they didn't dare to sit on anything, who called them a large number, probably thinking that it didn't matter if one or two died. ”

The business traveler has a fat head and big ears, and his body is about to catch up with Tianning, but it is not as solid as Tianning, the fat on this business traveler is pure obesity, fat, it seems that he has been going to and from Shang Zhou like this all year round, and he has not been able to lose his fat.

"Shameless!"

Everyone listened with relish, and Liu Yanran suddenly said a word, with a look of contempt, and her beautiful face was full of disgust.

The fat merchant looked embarrassed, but because he didn't cultivate, he didn't dare to go back to Liu Yanran directly. But he didn't let it go, but after being embarrassed, he talked to the people around him again

"Monks are certainly respectable and rare, but they have gone through many difficulties and dangers, and how many demon beasts they have killed, before they become powerful monks in the future. However, some monks just like to fake Qinggao, pretend to be high, and they are obviously full of blood on their hands, but they still have to laugh at others for just handing over a knife. ”

The implication of the words was naturally to mock Liu Yanran just now and scold him for being shameless.

Lin Zhenliu felt funny, and couldn't help but get closer to the caravan, but the strength was a little greater, and he "accidentally" knocked him to the ground, rolling a few times, as long as he went a little further, it was the place where the water yak stopped.

"I'm really sorry, I'm a little stronger, I'll pull you right away. Lin Zhenliu gave Liu Yanran a vengeful look, and then jumped, jumped off the carriage, and slowly walked out towards the fat business caravan.

It's really about getting out slowly.

In front of the fat merchant was the tall and burly water yak, and he didn't even have the slightest hint of laughter, but cried bitterly, beckoning to Lin Zhenliu in embarrassment, and didn't even dare to say "help" out loud, which was completely different from the two people who dared to hand a knife to the water yak just now.

When a few water yaks saw someone rolling over to them, they twitched their noses a few times, took a few steps forward, and came to the side of the fat caravan, sniffing around him. The fat business traveler believed that he was afraid, and he was about to run back to the business travel team, but he only climbed a few steps, but he was dragged back by the tall water yak, and he looked really pitiful.

"Alright, stop playing, bring him back. ”

Perhaps it was the merchants who asked for help from Shangguan Wan'er, so they also shouted to Lin Zhenliu at this time.

Lin Zhenliu replied with a "yes", and then went to the front and brought the fat merchant back from under the nose of the water yak.

"I'm really sorry, I just wanted to ask why the water yak was indifferent. Lin Zhenliu also apologized in a weird way, which can be regarded as returning his own body in the way of others.

Where did the fat business traveler dare to say anything more, such a young monk who cultivated to the sky for them, it would be better to provoke less in the future, it was really terrible, he thought that they were all docile and kind people at first, but he didn't expect that he could easily let him die as soon as he made a move, and sure enough, the cultivator's superb skills are really not blown.

"No, no, no, it's right that I'm wrong, it's me who is too talkative, and I hope you knights don't be surprised. "Fat business travelers are sleek and fickle, at this time, of course, they will not hold on to this humiliation, and admitting their mistakes in time is the way to survive.

Ling Feiyu looked at it interestingly on the side, and added a few words and said, "It's not time for this boss just now, the water yaks are all cowardly, do you dare to stab them." Why did you look at it just now, boss, you are not heroic. ”

Liu Yanran didn't look over, and she didn't even bother to laugh at the fat business traveler who spoke wildly.

Others laughed and coaxed that fat business traveler to demonstrate again, so that everyone could open their eyes?

The fat merchant was so frightened that his hand holding the horse rope couldn't help but tighten a little, for fear of being thrown in front of the water yak.

At this time, the owner of the tea carriage looked at the boundless water yak, and couldn't help but feel a little worried, he said, "Why do I think this water yak doesn't seem to be normal today." ”

At this time, the road through the water yak beast tide has already passed halfway, as long as you go a little further, you will officially enter the mountains and forests of the Tailiu Mountains.

"What's wrong?" asked the other business travelers, who could see that the tea boss still had some prestige on weekdays.

The tea boss said, "Today's water yak looks a lot more than usual, and have you noticed that the water yak is a little far away from us today, just a few zhang away, and now it is ten zhang away from us." ”

The other business travelers nodded one after another, "It seems like that, the usual water yak is almost next to the carriage when it is close, otherwise the fat boss can't stab the knife, but today, how can it be so far away?"

Lin Zhenliu followed their gaze and looked to the west, where the herd of water yaks preparing to migrate to the east was empty, as far as the eye could see.

"Ahem, why did I look at such a thing!" Lin Zhenliu remembered that with the help of the Demon Wolf Emperor, he had learned the ancient beast language, and it was nothing to come and communicate with the water yaks?

"I'll come when I go. After Lin Zhenliu explained to Shangguan Wan'er, he jumped out of the carriage under the surprised gaze of everyone, left the merchant team, and walked towards the water yak herd.

Baili Xi's eyes never let go of Lin Zhen's opportunity to reveal his back, and every time he looked carefully, trying to see something, but every time he failed.

"What does he want to do?" Ling Feiyu muttered, and Liu Yanran just pouted, as if to say, "Who knows." ”

Jia Murong rarely spoke on the road, and when he saw Lin Zhenliu walking towards the water yak herd alone, his eyes were also full of curiosity, and he muttered "interesting"!

The distance of more than ten zhang is actually a jump distance for Lin Zhenliu.

After jumping in front of the water yak, Lin Zhenliu's lips opened and asked in beast language, "Is something happening?"

The water yaks in front of Lin Zhenliu were a little surprised, and then they mooed a few words, others seemed to be unaware, but Lin Zhenliu heard clearly, "There is something in the east, we dare not go over." ”

Lin Zhenliu looked back in surprise, but he didn't see anything in the east.

"What is it?" Lin Zhenliu asked again.

When the head of the water yak was just about to open its mouth, but at this time, a corner of the water yak herd suddenly moved, and at a very fast speed, the popularity spread to the entire yak herd, and for a while, tens of thousands of cattle and yaks seemed to be frightened, and began to be restless.

Lin Zhenliu stretched out his hand and grabbed one of the water yaks, which couldn't break free, but became more and more frightened

"Run, run, that thing is coming!"
