Chapter 20: Linghu came to vote, and the bandits blocked the way
"What is an innate opportunity?"
Zhou Yi frowned, gradually fell into contemplation, his mind sank into consciousness, and when he came back to his senses, he found that the shopkeeper was standing in front of him.
"The guest officer, the guest officer, the small shop has made a proof..."
Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows and looked out, the sky outside the window was dark, and it was late at night.
"Is it so late?"
Zhou Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly, took out some broken silver and put it on the table, and asked the shopkeeper to prepare a room for himself and stay for one night.
On the second day, Zhou Yi got up early and went to the backyard of the restaurant to find a no-man's place to practice knives.
With Zhou Yi's physical fitness now, wielding a knife is no longer a simple swing, if you let go of your qi and blood with all your strength, it is no less than a small storm.
So at this time, Zhou Yi stood with a knife in his hand, constantly adjusting his breathing.
"Quick knife trick, pay attention to a fast word, the world's martial arts, only fast can be broken. ”
Holding the 'flame' knife in his hand, Zhou Yi first waved the knife gently, the blade facing outward, and the position changed.
The mind is condensed on the knife, the speed gradually becomes faster, and the qi and blood energy need to be suppressed on the blade, only to see that there are slight ripples and turbulence between the gaps in the air around the blade, but it is confined to a very small range and does not spread out.
In the end, the knife was no longer visible, and in Zhou Yi's hand, there was a knife light, like a curtain, smooth and dazzling, destructive and dazzling, but it contained deadly danger.
In the entire backyard, a solemn coercion was suddenly born, and in a side room in the backyard, the beasts that were stored here to be killed were lying on the ground, trembling, no longer roaring.
In the side room, a chef suddenly felt his whole body tremble, his hair stood on end, as if there was a feeling that the sky was falling, and he suddenly felt depressed and frightened in his heart.
"Strange, why do I suddenly have a feeling of impending disaster??"
"Is there really a bloody disaster when I go out today? No, I want to ask for leave~~"
............
After practicing the knife for half an hour, Zhou Yi stepped out of the restaurant and walked towards the outside of the city.
Out of Nanfeng City, Zhou Yi walked unhurriedly on the city road, this road is not narrow, about eight meters wide, paved with gravel and gravel, it is relatively flat.
Halfway through, a shadow suddenly appeared from the mountains and forests on both sides of the road, and Zhou Yi's footsteps paused, and his hand rested on the hilt of the knife.
"What's that?"
The figure that came out was very fast, like a broken sword, suddenly falling and falling not far from Zhou Yi.
"Looks like a fox?"
Zhou Yi fixed his eyes and saw a small figure rolling on the ground, letting out a sharp whimper.
The small figure is a bit similar to the fox I saw in my previous life, but the hair is silvery-white, which looks more noble and inviolable.
At this time, the little fox's hair was stained with blood, and she wanted to stand up and let out a painful whimper, but she saw that there was a deep wound on her hind leg that could not be stopped.
The little fox had a frightened look in his eyes, and when he saw a person standing not far from him, he hurriedly looked into the dense forest behind him, showing a slightly anxious expression.
I saw the little fox standing up, dragging his half-useless hind legs, and pacing towards Zhou Yi, his eyes leaking a pitiful and quite spiritual light.
"This fox is quite spiritual. ”
"Is this asking me for help? Could it be that this little fox has the instinct to seek good fortune and avoid evil? ”
Zhou Yi stood in place, watching the little fox move to his feet with difficulty, with a flattering expression, and his heart moved with compassion, so he hugged the little fox.
The fox's spiritual eyes were slightly happy, and he called softly, as if to thank Zhou Yi.
"It's fate, it's okay, I'll help you for a while. ”
Zhou Yi tore off a strip of cloth from his cuffs, helped the little fox simply bandage the wound on his hind legs, and then walked forward with the little fox in his arms.
The little fox relaxed, drowsy, and a spiritual light lingered in her eyes, although she frequently looked into the dense forest behind her, as if there was a terrible monster in the dense forest that opened its fangs and frightened her.
........................
Not long after Zhou Yi left here, a strong wind swept by, and in the place where the little fox had fallen, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air, silently, and the wind gradually stopped.
The figure was dressed in a black robe and wore a mask, on which was an unknown divine beast, strange and grotesque.
The figure leaned down, sniffed, and looked around again.
"It's strange, the breath suddenly disappeared here, leaving no trace at all?"
"Who is it that helped her cover up the heavens......?
The black-robed figure muttered a few times and let out an unwilling roar, which shook the mountains and forests, and the beasts wailed.
The wind blew up, and the figure was gone.
Of course, none of these Zhou Yi knew about it, because at this time, Zhou Yi was surrounded by a group of bandits.
The mountain road is crooked, and as soon as Zhou Yi turns a big bay, he encounters a group of bandits and a convoy of bloody scenes.
To be precise, it was the bandit slaughtering convoy.
Zhou Yi glanced around, surrounded by bandits in the middle of the convoy, there were three carriages with people, and some vehicles transporting goods, at this time, around the convoy, the twenty or so people dressed as guards had fallen down, and among the remaining people, several were wounded, escorting the convoy, desperate in their hearts.
Outside the convoy, the bandits of about 100 people, with cruel and bloodthirsty faces, surrounded but not destroyed like wolves staring at their prey, and then launched a fatal blow when the prey was tired.
"No unwarranted disaster!!" Zhou Yi glanced around, and knew what was going on, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This road leads to Juancheng, one of the big cities of Yanzhou, which is quite prosperous on weekdays with an endless stream of cars and horses. Bandits robbed and killed passing merchants from time to time.
Seeing Zhou Yi appear alone, the head of the bandit thief immediately separated more than a dozen people, with hideous faces, and surrounded Zhou Yi.
"If I say I'm passing by, do you believe it?" Zhou Yi said with a wave of his hand.
"Don't talk nonsense, you're damned when you're passing by, who told you to bump into it. ”
The three masters of Wolf Castle drew their knives and stood, the blade was bloody, the cold light was cold, and this knife had accompanied him to kill many people since his debut.
"Give it to me, chop this kid up and feed it to the dog first. ”
As soon as the words fell, two little thieves immediately rushed over with knives and slashed at the top of Zhou Yi's head.
"I don't know if I'm alive or dead!!"
Zhou Yi held the little fox in one hand, pulled out the knife with the other, the knife was like a match, fast as lightning, everyone only felt a flower in front of them, and the two little thieves who rushed to Zhou Yi's eyes stagnated, directly let go of the big knife, knelt on the ground, pressed his throat, his eyes were terrified, blood gushed out from his hands, he couldn't stop, and in a few seconds, he fell to the ground with a pop, convulsed twice, and couldn't die anymore.
