Chapter 538: The Way of Life (17 more)
Before leaving, Qian Xiaodao bought a horse chopping knife and a dagger from the weapon shop, and he used the dagger to cut off the limbs of the flying pig with great ease, and then threw the flying pig to a nearby mercenary.
Qian Xiaodao lit a fire not far from the team, and soon the fragrance of roast pig was overflowing. The person who picked up the body of the flying pig was also roasting the pig, but his craftsmanship was far from the level of Qian Xiaodao.
When Qian Xiaodao picked up the pork leg and nibbled on it, the caravan director Matthew walked over with a smile. He stood in front of Qian Xiaodao, first threw Qian Xiaodao a bottle of wine, Qian Xiaodao took it, opened the bottle and poured it, and couldn't help but praise at the moment: "Good wine, I'm afraid it's twenty years old." ”
"Hehe, the little brother is not very old, but he knows a lot about wine." Matthew was still standing, and he took out a small bag from his arms, "How about I buy you two pork legs for a hundred gold coins?" ”
"Okay."
After a pleasant transaction, Matthew and Qian Xiaodao chatted and returned to the caravan. Qian Xiaodao found that Matthew had entered the carriage in the center of the caravan. There were a total of twenty-five carriages in the entire caravan, and each carriage was similar in appearance, and Qian Xiaodao would not have carefully identified it. With the sake of wine, this barbecue tastes even more delicious.
For Qian Xiaodao's solitary trip, after a few days of getting along, everyone is used to it.
In the entire caravan, only the caravan director Matthew and the centaur Mattadon and Qian Xiaodao had spoken a few words. During the day, Qian Xiaodao walked with everyone, and at night, Qian Xiaodao sat alone and set up a small tent about ten meters away from the team.
Qian Xiaodao found that he didn't need to sleep when cultivating the Six Dao Dragon Treasure Decisions, he just sat cross-legged in the tent, let go of his body and mind, let himself integrate into nature, and feel the endless Dao power contained in nature.
Qian Xiaodao slowly absorbed the Dao power from the outside world, gathered the Dao power in the dantian, and then extracted it, slowly condensed it in the six dragon hiding points, and slowly advanced.
The itinerary and the process of cultivation were extremely boring, and Qian Xiaodao was almost unchanged all the way. It wasn't until half a month later that the caravan arrived at a place called Tempest Canyon.
"Matthew, I'm suggesting we take a detour, Tempest Canyon is too dangerous. There are also two bandits around here, and if they set up an ambush on both sides of the canyon, we'll all die here. Qian Xiaodao finished cultivating from the tent, and as soon as he came out to breathe, he heard Taton and Matthew arguing.
"No, we have to go through the Tempest Canyon. If we take a detour, it will take at least ten more days to travel, my time is already very tight, after passing the canyon, we will have to travel day and night, and we must arrive at Birch City as soon as possible, and we will have someone from the Shang Alliance there to meet you. ”
"But ......"
"There's not much to say, if you're scared, go back!"
"Humph! When did I get scared, anyway, I should have said that I have already said it, in case something happens, you don't blame me! With that, Taton huffed and walked to the front of the group.
Qian Xiaodao frowned and looked at the two tall peaks in front of him. From a distance, these two peaks actually have the shape of a human body.
"Hehe, the two mountains in front are called Husband and Wife Peak, and according to legend, two titan giants who fell in love with each other changed the city." Matthew walked up to Qian Xiaodao and said with a smile.
"I'm afraid this Tempest Canyon isn't going to be easy." Qian Xiaodao said with a faint sigh.
"Oh? Why? Matthew looked at Qian Xiaodao in some surprise.
"Director Matthew, don't you think it's been too quiet to do this way?"
"Hehe, maybe it's because of the number of us, after all, robbers are also deadly."
"Hehe, I don't think so, but you're the leader of the team, and I don't have time to ask. But let me tell you one thing beforehand, if there is an ambush, I will kill the enemy, but if the enemy is beyond the scope of what we can handle, I will be the first to leave. After all, human life is the most important, and although gold coins are good, it is not good if you don't have a life to enjoy them. ”
After speaking, Qian Xiaodao ignored the eyes and words of the people around him, most of the mercenaries thought that Qian Xiaodao was worrying about the sky, just imagine that they have such a huge team, which unsightly robber would run to death?
Qian Xiaodao walked alone at the end of the line, he hugged his hands on the back of his head, looking very casual, but this was only the surface.
At this moment, Qian Xiaodao can be said to be on full alert, and his consciousness will never be wrong.
Moreover, Qian Xiaodao also saw some clues from Matthew's eyes, he seemed to understand something, but he didn't explain it. Looking at the mighty team in front of him, the corners of Qian Xiaodao's mouth curled slightly, revealing a sneer.
From the very beginning, Qian Xiaodao had some doubts about what Matthew had done, and when Taton opened his mouth to remind Qian Xiaodao, Qian Xiaodao couldn't help but have a thought in his mind - Matthew wanted them to be cannon fodder and shields!
The funny thing is that these fools in front of him are still at a loss, and Taton, who vaguely knows something, is a brainless person, and he seems to be full of confidence in his own ability, secretly thinking that even if he encounters a strong enemy, even if he can't repel it, it is more than enough to escape.
Qian Xiaodao followed the team for nearly half an hour before he reached the middle of the canyon, and at this time, Qian Xiaodao's whole body nerves were tensed, and a sense of danger immediately permeated his body, and at the same time, Qian Xiaodao also pulled out the horse chopping knife behind his back.
A mercenary who was relatively close to Qian Xiaodao saw Qian Xiaodao draw his sword, and couldn't help but smile and said, "I said, you guy's too bold, right?" ”
However, before the man's "bar" could be exited, an arrow shadow roared, piercing directly into the back of the man's head and penetrating through his mouth.
"Enemy attack!"
Someone in the crowd immediately exclaimed, however, they were greeted by the shadows of arrows in the sky!
God, this is really terrifying, Qian Xiaodao only felt that the entire sky above his head was covered by black arrows, and Qian Xiaodao, who had no time to dodge, directly stepped forward and lifted the body of the man who was already dead, in order to avoid the rain of falling arrows!
Suddenly, the entire Tempest Canyon was covered by the terrible screams of the mercenaries, however, after the rain of arrows, countless fireballs fell on the cliffs on both sides of the canyon, which were not magic, but huge cotton balls stained with oil!
"Damn! These people don't want money, they want death! ”
Qian Xiaodao scolded angrily, and he hurriedly rushed in the direction where Taton was. Taton had already had three arrows stuck in his horse at this time, and he had no time to care about his wounds, and after the rain of arrows was a deadly fireball, and the middle section of the Tempest Canyon was too narrow! The violently burning fireball quickly blocked the back road of Qian Xiaodao, and now he only had one way, which was to rush forward!
