As the noise in the forest grew louder, someone in the caravan gradually noticed that something was wrong, and one of the nearest guards noticed an anomaly in the forest.

At this time, Steward Xing turned his head to look at the leader of the guards and said, "Leader Yang, do you continue to stay or leave first, the scene here is not very beautiful for a while!"

"What's this, I haven't seen anything in so many years, isn't it just some dead people, people who have been running around for a long time these years, which one doesn't have his head hanging on his trouser belt. The leader of the guards patted his chest, as if to indicate that he was not afraid.

"So Leader Yang wants to stay?" Steward Xing looked at the head of the guard with a playful expression.

The leader of the guards turned to smile and said, "Forget it, I can't see my brother dying in front of me for so many years, so I'd better leave first." ”

Steward Xing sneered when he heard this, but it was hidden by the night, and the leader of the guard did not see it.

"Remember, only a few close people can be taken, and the rest of the escort must remain in the caravan, and they will only be perfect if they die with the caravan. Looking at the back of the leader of the guards as he was about to leave, Steward Xing said.

"Got it. The leader of the guard waved his hand and walked away without looking back.

Steward Xing looked at the back of the leader of the guards walking away, a touch of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he secretly said in his heart, if you have a life to take a life flower, it is better for you to stay and bury the caravan.

The guards who found the abnormality in the forest searched around, but they didn't find the leader of the guards, and finally saw Steward Xing behind a carriage, and hurriedly ran to the front, panting for breath.

"Steward Xing is not good, outside, outside the forest, there seems to be something abnormal, I'm afraid it's the robbers who are coming, our Yang leader can't find anyone here at this time, Steward Xing, you have an idea." ”

Steward Xing's face changed, and he made an anxious look, "What? You said that the robbers are here, and they are in the forest, but Leader Yang is gone, what you said is true?"

The messenger's guard nodded vigorously, "I searched around, but I didn't find Leader Yang, but now the robbers in the forest are afraid that it won't take long to attack, and I'm afraid that the caravan will let the robbers scatter in one fell swoop if they are not prepared." ”

Steward Xing calmed down, and then said: "Okay, I know, I'll go and inform the caravan, you continue to go to Leader Yang, remember to bring the news to Leader Yang, so that he can take precautions as soon as possible." ”

"Got it. The messenger replied, turned around and was about to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he felt a pain in his chest, and lowered his head, only to see the tip of a bloody knife piercing out of his chest.

Slowly turned behind him, and when he turned halfway, he saw Steward Xing holding the handle of the knife in his hand, and the direction of the blade was on the mouth of his vest, he slowly raised his hand and pointed at Steward Xing with all his might, "You...... You ......"

"Die early and be reincarnated, don't blame me, anyway, you will die at the hands of those robbers in a while, and now it's just a little earlier. Steward Xing's face was ruthless, and he slammed the handle of the knife, and the last breath of the guard leaked out with the body of the knife, and he fell to the ground without a blink.

Steward Xing rubbed the blood stains on the guard's clothes before inserting it back into the scabbard at his waist.

Looking left and right, no one around him was noticed, and with a slight bend, he quickly left the corpse of the guard, and disappeared into the night.

Not long after the time passed, in the caravan, someone suddenly shouted: "The robbers are coming, the robbers are coming, the robbers are coming." ”

The voice was one to ten, and all the people in the caravan, whether they were guards or subordinates, or the coachmen who were driving the car, all woke up from their sleep and hurriedly picked up the weapons at hand.

The people who were able to get their weapons so quickly were basically caravan guards, who always slept with their weapons by their side, unless they were escorted home after the caravan.

The people with the largest number of people, and more than a dozen drivers who drove the car, obviously couldn't do this, and after hearing the news of the robbers, they were all panicked for a long time, and they couldn't care about finding their weapons, and they were running around like rats.

The coachman who drove the carriage was a little better, although he was also flustered, but he ran to his carriage first, unlike those subordinates, who ran around purely without purpose.

However, it wasn't much better, but because the carriage was their own, they rushed to the carriage as soon as possible, and two of them were the coachmen who drove the carriage provided by the Xu family, obviously like those subordinates, spinning around like headless flies.

It was so noisy outside, and Xu Dongjia, who was resting in the carriage, naturally heard it clearly, and didn't believe it at first, but when he heard everyone shouting like this, his face turned white.

At this time, he had already seen in the forest outside the caravan, and the fiery serpents composed of torches were lighting up around the caravan, almost encircling the entire caravan inside.

Only the two ends of the road did not appear in the direction of the torches, but the sound of rumbling horses' hooves in the ears made it clear that the two ends of the road were blocked by horses coming from both directions.

Xu Dongjia was helped down from the carriage, but fortunately there was someone next to him, otherwise he would have been paralyzed on the ground.

This was the first time he had traveled with a caravan, and he didn't expect to encounter so many robbers for the first time.

"Where is Uncle Xing, where is Uncle Xing? Find Uncle Xing. As if grasping a life-saving straw, Xu Dongjia went to find Steward Xing.

After a short time, Steward Xing rushed over, not because he heard Xu Dongjia calling him, but because he saw the robbers outside the caravan, he knew that he should go to his own Xu Dongjia at this time.

"Second Young Master, I'm here, I'm here!" Steward Xing came to Xu Dong's house with a worried face, as if he was very worried about the safety of the caravan, but a look of joy in the corner of his eyes betrayed him.

However, no one would pay attention to this matter at this time, most of everyone's minds were involved in the robbers outside, and coupled with the cover of darkness, no one really saw the joy in the corner of Steward Xing's eyes.

"Steward Xing, now that the robbers have surrounded the caravan, what can I do?" Xu Dongjia held Steward Xing's hand tightly, looking worried.

"Second Young Master, don't worry, at this time, you should find Leader Yang first and let him get ready with all the caravan guards. Knowing that the leader of the guards had fled, Steward Xing still mentioned Leader Yang first, as if the person who spoke to Leader Yang before was not him.

"Yes, yes, find Leader Yang first, Leader Yang, go find Leader Yang. Xu Dongjia didn't pay attention, and when he heard that Steward Xing asked him to find Leader Yang, he asked him to find Leader Yang.

It didn't take long for the subordinate to come to Xu Dongjia and Steward Xing with a caravan escort.

Xu Dongjia asked eagerly at the guards: "What about your Yang leader, where is he?
