Chapter 6927: Dragon Scales
♂
When Ye Wujian and the officers and soldiers re-stepped into the labyrinthine forest, they came to the creek again. The samurai was extra kind and said that he could take a break. The officers and soldiers all understood that they were able to rest because there was one more Ye Wujian in the team this time. The officers and men immediately staggered to rest. One of the officers and soldiers came to get close to Ye Wujian and said, "Hey, little brother, you are going to become a nobleman, follow the adults to enjoy the blessings, and don't forget those of us who are from our hometown when you become a big official in the future."
Ye Wujian looked up and saw that it was the officer and soldier who shouted at Ye Wujian the most. Ye Wujian ignored him, and after a while, he walked away boredly.
Ye Wujian squatted by the stream and looked at the stream that didn't know the beginning or the end, the clear stream could still reflect Ye Wuji's face. Ye Wujian looked at that unfamiliar face, fantasizing about the flow of Ye Wuji's life to ?—— Imperial City.
Peach Blossom Village, where Ye Wuqian has lived for ten years, is a strange village, in Ye Wuji's impression, the location of Peach Blossom Village is very remote from the town, and even far away from other villages, even the road to the nearest good city takes a day and a half to walk. What's even stranger is that the location of the village is not good, there are no crops, and it is surrounded by mountains.
The whole village looks like a piece of food surrounded by mountains, lonely and helpless.
In addition to catering to the loneliness of individual people, Peach Blossom Village really doesn't look like a normal village. To Ye Wuji, Peach Blossom Village is like ...... It's as if it's specially prepared for some people who are escaping from society. And in the years of living in Peach Blossom Village, the villagers that Ye Wujian has seen have also proved Ye Wuji's conjecture more and more.
Every year, one or two people leave Peach Blossom Village, and every year there are one or two new villagers moving in. It's just as agreed. Everyone who has just entered the village has a mysterious foreign atmosphere all over their bodies, and after staying in the village for only three months, they will completely become a native of the village. Ye Wujian has always felt that everyone around Ye Wujian is disguising his identity, and his true self can only be seen in his dreams.
According to Lao Li, Ye Wujian was born in Peach Blossom Village, and he was not Ye Wuji's father. It is very unfortunate that Ye Wuji's parents used to be one of the people who would leave Peach Blossom Village every year. They left, leaving Ye Wujian behind. Lao Li was entrusted by Ye Wuji's parents to raise Ye Wuji.
Ye Wujian has no objection to this, Ye Wujian doesn't know what kind of people Ye Wuji's parents are, but Ye Wujian believes that they will definitely not let Ye Wujian live so comfortably like Lao Li. Since Governor Ye Wuji, Lao Li has never blamed Ye Wuji, let alone being beaten every day like other hairy children. At most, Lao Li showed some reproachful eyes. In addition, Lao Li also protected Ye Wujian better than other children. He was always very nervous about Ye Wuji's safety, and he also paid more attention to Ye Wuji's safety, and it seemed that Ye Wujian would be in danger. What's even more powerful is that Lao Li seems to care about Ye Wuji's thoughts, for example, if Ye Wuqian wants to eat venison today, then he will risk going into the dense forest to hunt, Lao Li's level of hunting is very high, and he has never let Ye Wuqian hope. However, if Ye Wujian eats two-knife noodles, it proves that Ye Wujian seems to have done something wrong, and these two-knife noodles are Lao Li's punishment, but as for what Ye Wujian did wrong, Lao Li will not tell Ye Wuji. Lao Li has said since he was a child that Ye Wujian is smarter and has ideas than other children. It would be good to let Ye Wujian live according to his own ideas.
There is nothing more comfortable than this, not being bound by any constraints, and living according to your own ideas.
In fact, since Governor Ye Wuji, Ye Wuqian has understood one thing, sooner or later, Ye Wujian will also leave this village like Ye Wuji's parents. It's just that Ye Wujian didn't expect this day to come so quickly. And there is another point that is beyond Ye Wuji's expectations. Ye Wujian originally wanted to take Lingling with him, but it turned out that Ye Wujian left first. But it doesn't matter, Ye Wujian will go back to pick her up.
The warrior took Ye Wujian and walked in an unfamiliar direction, and Ye Wujian felt a little strange in his heart. In Ye Wuji's impression, Ye Wujian has been to Liangcheng three times, the most recent one was half a year ago. Liangcheng is the only place in the village that has contact with the outside world, and people in the village go to Liangcheng to buy everything they need. This made Ye Wujian feel that even if they left Peach Blossom Village, the first place they should go to should be Liangcheng, and then from Liangcheng to the Imperial City. And now the direction they are going in is obviously not a good city.
After walking for a long time, Ye Wujian couldn't help but ask, "Aren't we going to Liangcheng now?"
Officer A turned around and asked Ye Wuji: "What are you doing in Liangcheng?"
Ye Wujian said, "Shouldn't we go to Liangcheng first, and then go to the Imperial City?"
Officers and Soldiers smiled and said, "You, you just stayed in that broken village for too long, and you don't know anything outside. You don't need to go to Liangcheng to go to the Imperial City, you don't need to go to Liangcheng, it's close here. As he finished, he pointed in a distant direction ahead.
Officer and soldier B: "The imperial city is not as good as Liangcheng, the imperial city is a first-class big city, far away from our poor mountains and bad waters, your peach blossom village, in fact, is almost on the periphery of Liangcheng, and we can only send this lord and you out of the boundary of Liangcheng's jurisdiction." Oh, that's the mountain. “
Ye Wujian looked at it, looking at the largest mountain on the side, and felt a sense of loss in his heart.
The men continued to walk on, and in a short time they reached the foot of the mountain. Several officers and soldiers looked like they were preoccupied.
Finally, Officer A asked, "My lord, you see that our mission has also been completed, and we have been running with you for four days." We didn't tell anyone in the county about this, as you told us. Do you think it's time to ......
The samurai suddenly smiled mysteriously: "Yes, yes, it's been a hard few days. After returning to the Imperial City, the official will report the names of the three people, and the canonization order should be issued three days later.
The three of them nodded when they heard this, and they were very excited. Ye Wujian looked at the samurai smiling there, but his heart was furious, and he always felt that something was wrong.
The samurai continued: "It has been really hard for you to follow this official for the past two days. In addition to the canonization, the official also has some personal rewards that he wants to give to a few people. As he spoke, he was carrying something shiny from his bosom. In the somewhat dim twilight, the contents of his bosom seemed dazzling and seductive.
When the three officers and men heard this, they were even more happy. The samurai beckoned them closer, and the three of them walked towards him as if they had been bewitched by something.
Ye Wujian saw that the eyes of the three officers and soldiers were full of greedy **, Ye Wujian saw their death, and saw the trap called **.
The samurai took out a shiny cold knife from his pocket and drew a beautiful arc in the air, and before the three officers and soldiers could react, a bloody wound appeared on their necks, and the blood kept coming out of their throats, and the three officers and soldiers looked at the samurai in horror, covering their necks with their hands.
But they did not die immediately, they glanced at the sword in the samurai's hand. There is a round icon on the handle of the knife, and a hideous dragon head is engraved on it. As if they had seen a demon, the officers and soldiers covered their bleeding necks with their hands and frantically cried for help while looking at the road they had come from.
Ye Wujian saw all this in his eyes and swallowed a mouthful of saliva silently. Ye Wujian looked at the hideous dragon head on the knife, inexplicably trapped
