Following the first rays of sunshine in the morning, Liu An's convoy slowly hit the road. The biting cold wind, the bumpy dirt road, and the creaking of wheels accompanied the pedestrians all the way.

Li Nianqiu and the others in the carriage were still sleepy, and the three of them were very relieved about Liu An, a businessman, after a day of communication, and they were running around for days, and the three of them were covered with thick quilts and shook their groggy heads with the bumps of the carriage.

Liu An was refreshed, shaking the horsewhip to drive the carriage, as if it was not him who drank until midnight yesterday, Liu An said while rushing to the car: "Little brother, you can get to Chenliu in less than ten days after this journey! Don't fall asleep! Be careful of catching a cold." ”

"Well, thank you, Uncle Liu, when Chen stays and I will entertain you well, then there will be enough wine and meat. Li Nianqiu said with a strong spirit.

"It's easy to say, drive!" Liu Anxin happily urged again.

Leaving Nianqiu, he shook Zhang Liang and Jiang Yunrong on both sides and said, "Be careful, don't fall asleep, be vigilant." ”

"Senior brother, I didn't sleep for a long time because of the gang of people yesterday, so I have to sleep no matter what. Saying that, Jiang Yunrong seemed to feel cold, leaned closer to Li Nianqiu, and his face as white as jade came to Li Nianqiu, Li Nianqiu frowned slightly, reached out and grabbed a handful of medicinal materials and wiped them on Jiang Yunrong's face.

"Don't wash your face, you have to wash it. Li Nianqiu said.

"Senior brother, I didn't wash it. Zhang Liang on the side whispered, and leaned next to Nianqiu as he spoke.

"Take me to keep warm!" Li Nianqiu said, treating Zhang Liang, who also came over, and kicked away from Nianqiu.

In the midst of the three of them playing, the sky also brightened slightly, and the spirits of the three of them were much better.

The convoy had already traveled a short distance, and a forest appeared not far ahead.

"Childe, you said that the sky is almost dawn, why are there no pedestrians on the road?" Zhang Liang asked.

Li Nianqiu took a closer look, and indeed there was no pedestrian on the road, and Li Nianqiu said: "I'm afraid it's too cold, so I haven't gone out yet." ”

If it is the height of summer, everyone needs to be careful of strong people blocking the way when crossing this forest. Now in the depths of winter, the grass and trees are withering and the branches and leaves are gone, and although the forest is large, it can be seen at a glance, so does Liu An pay attention to it.

Suddenly, a horse neighing accompanied by a violent shaking startled the three of Li Nianqiu.

"What's wrong, Uncle Liu?" asked Li Nianqiu.

"Little brother, hide and don't move. After that, Liu An covered the three of them with a cloth.

With the sound of arrows, a group of people suddenly appeared under the leaves in the forest on both sides and surrounded the convoy, and then more than 40 people in the convoy also drew their swords from the car and confronted more than 300 people on the spot.

"I don't know where my friend is, please come out and meet him!" Although Liu An is a businessman, he has also seen a lot of the world, and he has also dealt with these people, so he did not panic and asked loudly.

I saw the minions flashing to both sides, and three people came in front of them. The one on the far left, about forty years old, is short in stature, with an ugly appearance hunched at the waist, and a pair of flying sickles mixed with iron on his back, which looks like a pair of more than 20 pounds, with iron chains hanging on them, and the chains are being held in his hands down his arms. The person on the far right, thirty-five or sixteen years old, dressed as a scholar in a robe, a paper fan swaying in his palm, his face was yellow like a fallen leaf, as if he was seriously ill.

There is a person in the middle who is about fifty years old, tall and tiger-headed, with gray hair and a pair of steel hair, black and translucent, wearing fox fur, his hands are wrapped around his chest, and his eyes are like electricity staring at Liu An.

"A willow in front of the door, fluttering rivers and lakes. Dare to ask a few friends who are in charge?" Liu An said with his hands in fists.

"Are you the pharmacist who went to Qingzhou to deliver goods?" Helian Ba didn't answer and asked coldly.

"Yes, little Liu An is a pharmacist. Seeing that the situation was wrong, Liu An immediately whispered.

Helian Ba looked up and down, and then said to the person on the right, "The third child has solved them." ”

"Yes!" said the man who was sick and sick, and he would go forward.

"Don't, this master, I am also a protégé of the Seventh Master, all of them are my own family, a master (raise your noble hand). Liu An said and took out a post from his arms, with a cloud painted on the cover, and a seven-character word was written in the cloud.

The sick man poked his head and glanced at it and said with a smile: "Ao, you are also the protégé of the Seventh Master." ”

"Yes! Yes, my own family, let us go, the little one still has some filial piety. Seeing that there was a turning point, Liu An immediately took out a silver bag from his arms and stuffed it into the hands of the yellow sick man.

The sick man took a bag of silver and said, "Well! ”

"So, can we go?" asked Liu An in a low voice.

"Don't worry, this brother's surname?" said the sick man.

"The surname is Liu. Liu An said.

"Ao! Brother Liu!" the yellow sick man had a playful look on his face.

"Don't you dare, dare to ask the family's honorable name?" Liu An said.

"Ao, I don't have a name for walking the rivers and lakes, but I have a nickname, I am called 'sick ghost' in the rivers and lakes, that is my second brother called 'ugly ghost', and this is my eldest brother Helianba has a nickname called 'Qianjun Knife'. The sick man said.

"It turned out to be three masters, and they looked up for a long time. Thank you Helian for raising your noble hand today, and Liu will come to thank you another day. Liu An said.

"It's all said, Brother Liu, don't worry, Brother Liu only knows that the green forest on the ground in Jingzhou is under the control of the Seventh Master, but our three brothers are ......," said the sick man, turned around abruptly, and threw the silver out and hit Liu An.

There was a loud bang, and the sick man's silver was knocked to the ground. Just when Liu An was talking to the sick ghost, four people in the carriage had already come over, and it turned out that Liu An had four masters of Xiaocheng Realm hidden in the convoy, which was to prevent a strongman from robbing.

The three of them hid in the tarpaulin and looked out with their eyes exposed, the atmosphere outside was tense and dignified, at this time, a cold sweat broke out on Li Nianqiu's nose, and he grabbed Zhang Liang and Jiang Yunrong with both hands respectively.

"Senior brother, shall we go and help?" Jiang Yunrong said.

"Yes, Uncle Liu is good to us. Zhang Liang said.

"It's the first time I've encountered it, I'm a young master who left home, a big disciple of Qingling Valley, and I haven't met robbers. Li Nianqiu thought to himself.

"Don't act rashly, watch first, and listen to my command later, do you know?" said Li Nianqiu.

In Li Nianqiu's heart, protecting the integrity of his junior brother and sister is the most important thing.

"Hey, and hard ideas, I'm going to have a good time. The sick man saw that the money he had thrown was being knocked down.

"Third child, it's going to be bright, don't delay. Helian Ba said.

"Don't worry, big brother, I have already sent someone to close the road, who dares to find it uncomfortable in Shiyunzhuang. The sick man said.

"Hmm! "Helian Ba has the ticket to victory, and he doesn't take these four Xiaocheng Realm masters in his eyes.

"In this way, Brother Liu, let's follow the rules of the green forest, if you want me to be one-on-one, one-on-four, as long as you win me, you can go, what do you think?" asked the sick ghost.

"What a big breath!" Before Liu An could speak, the one who made the knife among the four had already come to the front.

The other three saw that their brother was not an opponent, and they did not greet the three of them and jumped into the battlefield at the same time, two swords and a point steel gun directly attacked the back of the sick ghost, and the sick ghost was not angry, and he smiled slightly to avoid the attack of the four people, and the four people formed a circle to surround the sick ghost.

"Senior brother, what do you think of that sick ghost?" Zhang Liang asked.

"This person's moves are weird, although it is also a small realm, but it can be seen that both the moves and the internal force are much higher than those four people. Li Nianqiu said.

"I think so, why don't we go out and help them?" Zhang Liang asked.

"Wait, you see that this sick ghost alone is so difficult, not to mention that there are two more in the back. Li Nianqiu said.

"Senior brother, if those four people lose their hands, it will be even more difficult for us to win. Jiang Yunrong said.

Why didn't Li Nianqiu want to raise a sword to kill, the road was uneven, and he was happy to take revenge, such a thing appeared in Li Nianqiu's mind more than once, if he was the only one, Li Nianqiu would definitely help each other, just rely on Liu An's care for himself, and he should also solve problems for him. But now that the master's life is in his body, he is not completely sure, so he can only wait and see what happens.

Under the attack of the four people, the situation was gradually pulled back, and the sick ghost scholar gradually fell into the disadvantage, and suddenly the sick ghost jumped lightly and jumped out of the encirclement. The four of them hurriedly followed, and for a time the formation of the four people was disrupted, so that the people with guns were the first to catch up with the sick ghost, and the spear shook and took the sick ghost in the face. The sick ghost sneered slightly, turned his head to avoid the head of the gun, and raised his hand with a paper fan in his right hand, and a true qi penetrated the lower abdomen of the gunman.

The sick ghost retreated and the man with the gun was beaten to the ground, and the two sword-wielding men followed closely, not caring about the injuries of their companions, and the two swords were divided into two ways to attack the sick ghost.

The sick ghost was in a hurry, and the paper fan in his hand took out his hand, and went straight to the face door of the person who made the sword on the road, and the person with the sword was knocked to the ground before he could dodge on the road. Immediately afterwards, the sick ghost violently raised a large cloud of dust with his right foot, and the sword man was blinded by the dust on the way down, and immediately turned to attack and defended, blocking the sword in front of his chest.

The sick ghost kicked the head of the sword-wielding man, causing the sword-maker's eyes to be vaguely felt, and he subconsciously used the sword to tease.

"Be careful!" the man with the knife shouted.

But it was too late, the sick ghost had already changed his moves, and kicked the sword man in the chest heavily, causing the sword man to fly out with a muffled snort, and instantly stained his clothes with blood.

"Big brother. Zhang Liang couldn't hold back any longer, and uncovered the tarpaulin and caught the sword with a horizontal leap.

"Yo! It turns out that there are still masters. The sick ghost gently shook the folding fan and stood in place looking at Zhang Liang.

The person who made the knife knew that he was not the opponent of the sick ghost, so he did not dare to advance, and stared at the sick ghost very vigilantly.

"Haha! It turned out to be a doll. When the sick man looked closely, he said disdainfully.

Seeing that Zhang Liang had already made a move, Li Nianqiu jumped out of the car himself, and Jiang Yunrong followed closely behind him.
