(149), falling
"It's not far off." Ma An replied loudly, and the long whip in his hand was thrown out sharply, and then he said: "The Shilingkou just passed, so with our current travel speed, Wan Songgang should have less than a cup of tea to arrive." ”
Lin Shan's eyes swept into the distance outside the car door, and sighed with some meaning: "It's really fast!" The emotion contained in his tone didn't know whether he was praising Ma An for the speed of the car, or whether he was worried about something.
After a few moments, the carriage reached a bend in the official road, and its speed slowed down. Because the old horse pulling the cart was already very familiar with the basic characteristics of the road, it was very self-conscious if there was no requirement for speed. Ma An only shook the reins, which was a crucial reminder to the old horse, and then his attitude towards the car was much more relaxed.
After turning this detour, the speed of the carriage also dropped a lot, but although there was a straight road ahead, Ma An did not immediately urge the horse to hurry again, but shook the long whip leisurely, half-turned around and smiled at Lin Shan in the carriage and said: "I saw you all the way to look leisurely, why are you almost at the destination, but you are in a hurry?" ”
"I'm in a hurry, but I'm not in a hurry." A trace of embarrassment quickly slipped through Lin Shan's eyes, and he said again after a pause: "I am one of the three urgency of a person. ”
……
People have three kinds of urgency, and they don't need conventional reasons to convince others to believe, so after Ma An learned that Lin Shanzhi was in a hurry, not only did he not doubt it, but he soon became anxious about Lin Shan's urgency, and immediately urged the horse to gallop.
At this time, although there are rows of tall maple trees planted on both sides of the official road, the place outside the maple trees is still relatively open, so it is necessary to solve the urgent needs. Wan Songgang has to be the first choice. Wan Songgang is a veritable pine forest, and the official road runs through it, stop the carriage on the side of the road, people turn around and walk into the pine forest, do not need to go far, you can not go to the figure.
So at this time, when Ma'an stood in front of a bush half a man high. When the body relaxes and begins to untie and lift the clothes. He looked at the green around him, and suddenly sighed and said, "If you didn't mention it just now, I forgot that I was also in a hurry, but fortunately, there is this pine forest." I don't know how many passers-by have been solved. ”
Lin Shan didn't say anything about this, and Ma An soon heard a slight sound of clothes coming from the other side, so he said casually: "It's over so soon." You're not in such a hurry! ”
At this time, there was an echo from Lin Shan's side, so he heard him say indifferently: "When it's convenient, can you talk so much?" ”
His voice fell. The sound of approaching footsteps became clear, and a look of vigilance suddenly flashed in Ma An's eyes.
"There's no way, the pajamas are not untied, and when it is convenient, I also hold the spear in one hand and the belt of my trousers in the other, which is a habit I developed in the army before. It may be that the days before were too impressive, so although life has been comfortable in the past few years, this seemingly useless skill has not been lost! ”
He said this in the same relaxed and calm tone as before. Yet in the time he spoke, he was quickly dressed. He tightened his belt, and as soon as his hand left his waist, his figure suddenly shortened to avoid the expected strong wind cutting at the side of his neck.
With one palm on the ground to take the boost, Ma An spun out a semicircle on the tip of his right foot and kicked up, his body turning in one direction at the same time, leaping two steps behind the position he had just stood in between ups and downs.
Ma An, whose shoulders were tensed and his eyes were solemn, slowly stood up, looking at Lin Shan, who was standing behind him just now, and at this time he was standing in front of him because of his body reversal, his gaze was touched on the other party's palm knife, which was only halfway closed, and his gaze moved up, and he stared at Lin Shan's eyes.
Lin Shan's first raid had failed, and his next position to attack was hidden in his eyes, but Ma An was even more angry at this time, and it was difficult to accept the time period when Lin Shan sent a surprise attack to him.
When Ma An faced Lin Shan, although he recognized Lin Shan's move, he was only preparing for the offensive at this time, but his body did not move. He looked at Lin Shan, who was also ready to attack, a hint of an unhappy smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly said: "Actually, I expected it a long time ago, you must be ready to 'take care' of me on the road, but I didn't expect you to pick this time, which really made you fall in my heart!" ”
"What kind of decency is there to achieve the goal? I have more ideas for you to enjoy later. Lin Shan also had a slight smile on his face when he said this.
He didn't mean to murder Ma An, so although his sneak attack on Ma An just now was ruthless, there was no fierce light in his eyes. It's just that he didn't expect that the sudden blow that should have a high success rate would miss, so although he was laughing now, he was not laughing as easily as usual.
"Since you have already guessed what I mean, why did you pretend not to know and accompany me all the way? In fact, you can leave early and follow as you say. As Lin Shan said this, he slowly took a step closer to Ma An.
Seeing Lin Shan's move, Ma An's feet that were firmly buckled on the ground also moved, but he was not retreating, but his body was slightly oblique, and he took a step back to Lin Shan's side. In this way, if Lin Shan wants to attack suddenly, then he will inevitably need to turn his body, which will slightly affect his speed.
Seeing this, Lin Shan didn't continue to move forward after taking a step, but just turned his body sideways to keep himself facing Ma An in a posture that was facing Ma An.
Seeing that Lin Shan didn't move again, Ma An also stood still, then bent the corners of his mouth, and said in a very calm tone: "How dare I do what I have said in front of you?" What's more, even the eldest kid in your group knows that it's impossible for you to succeed right now. ”
He paused for a moment before he continued: "Actually, when I first set out, I still had a little illusion about your words, because I couldn't find any other way, so I could only take this fantasy seriously. However, I do not regret my approach, although it seems to you to be a mistake, but for me, it is progressing. I don't have to wait for your news anymore, and I have the ability to express and express my thoughts. ”
"Yes, when you set off, I didn't see that you were pretending not to know, this is your progress." Lin Shan first nodded in agreement with what Ma An said, and then the smile on his face became ethereal, and he said lightly: "But so what? This progress of yours has not changed the result after all. ”
"yes, so what?" After Ma An heard Lin Shan's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then he repeated Lin Shan's words with a sense of helplessness in his tone.
His stunned look was not because of Lin Shan's words, but because he had noticed that there was a slight sound of grass leaves rubbing together in the shade of the pines a few feet away around him, which was different from the sound of ordinary people walking on the mountain road with big thorns, and the sound of grass and trees caused by deliberately suppressed movements was caused by the sound of people taking steps after special training.
Although Ma An could not talk about the habits of the group of subordinates who were familiar with Lin Shan, in this and now, the unfamiliar piece of his cognition was not difficult to make up for by a kind of spiritual foreknowledge.
As the rustling sound approached, the footsteps hidden in the murmur became distinct. Ma An's guess was right, the few people who slowly gathered around him were indeed not passers-by accidentally, they were the members of the group that Lin Shan had instructed Liu Sheng to dispatch the night before the departure.
The members of this group stayed far behind the carriage according to the instructions left by Lin Shan to Liu Sheng, but they had just quietly overtaken the front at the turn after crossing the Shiling Pass, and they were guarding Wansonggang in advance to carry out a task similar to the act they had done to Li that night.
Ma An, who determined this situation, not only did not intend to take another chance to take the first step towards Lin Shan, but instead relaxed his shoulders, self-absorbed and accumulated, put on a posture of being restrained, and said with a heavy sense of helplessness in his tone: "There are many of you, I am definitely not your opponent in a group fight, not to mention that there are a few masters of medicine in your group, so I won't spend time with you to ask for hardship." But...... This feeling of being captured really made me, a person who had trained courage in the army, feel uncomfortable. ”
Lin Shan saw that Ma An gave up resistance unusually consciously, and he naturally unloaded the attack, lowered his hands at his side, and said with a slightly relaxed expression: "Don't worry, they won't tie you with a rope, you just follow them." ”
Ma An waved his hand and said disapprovingly: "That's not what I said...... Big brother, your subordinates can make it difficult for me to move with their eyes! ”
Lin Shan wanted to say something about this, and finally could only sigh, at this time, the people who surrounded him had already walked in front of him, they really didn't tie Ma An with a rope, but they all kept a distance of three steps and stood still, only one person approached Ma An, and this person was Liu Sheng, the leader of the second exploration team with red lips and white teeth, tall and tall, but much thinner than the man.
Yanagi's dress is still as simple as usual and does not look like a woman, but this does not mean that she is deliberately pretending to be a man, her black hair is still meticulously tied behind her head with a cloth belt, and she is still wearing the same cut black suit, which makes her undisguised figure look more curvy.
Ma An saw that the first person close to him was a woman, and his heart naturally relaxed his vigilance, but he didn't know that the kind of medicine he should be most vigilant against was in the hands of this woman, and the words he just said were equivalent to indirectly unscrewing the cork of the medicine that was hesitating to use.
Liu Sheng walked up to Ma An, first looked at him with a very calm gaze, and then her eyes began to gradually have a gentle smile, but this smile made Ma An finally sense that something was wrong, but this psychological induction came too slowly, so Ma An only had time to shrink his eyes, and then in the thin dust of Liu Sheng's suddenly raised and unstretched hand, his body fell softly......
