Chapter 361: Leave the money to buy the road
Li Xiangnan didn't plan to go to the Northern Regions with Yi Tiance and them, he had some other things to do.
Moreover, he has the Heavenly Emperor Cloth, and with the flight speed of the Heavenly Emperor Cloth, if he wants to go to the Northern Territory of the Secret Martial Arts, he can turn several times a day.
So after Li Xiangnan politely rejected Yi Tiance's kindness, he sat there for a while and then offered his farewell.
Since he decided to leave, Yi Tiance did not keep Li Xiangnan, so he went out to see him off in person.
After all, Li Xiangnan has a special identity, and now he has a close and friendly relationship with Shenhuomen, and he has also helped Shenhuomen a lot, so Shenhuomen naturally has to be treated as a guest.
Until Yi Tiance sent Li Xiangnan to the mountain gate.
Li Xiangnan saw that there were no other outsiders except him and Zhimo, as well as the Elder Fei and Ouyang Lie and others who came to see each other off, so he invited Yi Tiance aside and said: "Senior Yi, there is a sentence that the junior has always been like a stalk in his throat, not spitting out or unhappy, and forgetting that after the senior Yi heard it, don't blame the junior for talking too much!" ”
Yi Tiance was a little surprised, and said: "The people in my Shenhuo Gate have always done things simply, if Li Xiaoyou has anything to say, you might as well say it bluntly!" ”
Li Xiangnan said: "Senior Yi, about the Tiandou teleportation plan, the junior knows a little, but this matter, I sincerely advise the Shenhuo Gate not to be too deep, this word can come out of my mouth, into the ears of the seniors, don't be known by a third party!" ”
Speaking of this, Li Xiangnan didn't say anything more, and said: "Okay, that's all I say, I'll send the seniors here, and the juniors will leave!" ”
After everyone stopped, they gave each other away.
Until he saw Li Xiangnan leave the mountain gate. Then everyone returned to the mountain one after another.
It's just that on the way back to the mountain, Yi Tiance kept stroking his beard, thinking about the meaning of the sentence left by Li Xiangnan when he left, he believed that this junior would not say such a thing to him for no reason, so there should be some hint in this, which may be related to the Tiandou Teleportation Plan.
……
At the foot of the mountain of Shenhuomen, there is a wealthy town.
This town is a large town based on agriculture and planting, and usually supplies the corresponding food and other materials to the Shenhuo Gate, after all, the Shenhuo Gate is a big faction and has many disciples. Food, clothing, housing and transportation. Except for the self-sufficient part, the rest have to be purchased by the outside private sector.
It can be said that in front of every sect, large and small, there will be some small societies that are dense and prosperous. Those sects. It is precisely by relying on the nurturing of these small societies that they will have no worries about food and clothing. Therefore, the relationship between the two sides is indispensable for complementarity.
After Zhimo and Li Xiangnan descended the mountain, they came directly to this town.
They didn't stop in town. It was only after having a meal in a restaurant, and then collecting some things for food and clothing, that he hired a medium-to-high-end carriage pulled by a bluehorn, and headed south.
In this world of Miwumen, the air quality is very good, and the ecological environment remains in a primitive state, so the scenery of the carriage all the way is very beautiful.
Moreover, unlike the earth, the incomparably thin heaven and earth aura above the earth can be seen here at any time, and the density is much greater than that on the earth.
The reason why Li Xiangnan wanted to hire a carriage to walk on his behalf, instead of flying around directly in the cloak of the Emperor of Heaven, was because he wanted to appreciate the surrounding scenery at the same time, and on the carriage that did not seem bumpy, he could also breathe in the surrounding heaven and earth aura at any time to breathe, which was more leisurely and casual.
After Zhimo came out, she was also very interested in browsing the scenery here, and looked east and west from time to time on the carriage, and had fun.
But no matter how good the scenery is, when you see too much, it will be a little boring, so I lowered the window, sat opposite each other, and began to sit cross-legged in the car to meditate and pranayama.
……
I don't know how long later, after a few weeks of Li Xiangnan's breathing, he felt that there was too much silence in the carriage, and the carriage didn't seem to be leaving.
But when he opened the door, he saw that the driver of the carriage was gone, and after the carriage had walked on its own for a while, the bluehorn stopped itself, and stood aside and ate the abundant and fat fodder.
This is a wilderness, and Li Xiangnan saw that the abundant and fertile forage made the greenhorn refuse to continue walking, but stopped there and kept eating, which must be abnormal.
Apparently, the forage did not grow naturally, but was deliberately placed on the side of the road to attract passing greencorns.
After all, those who can afford to ride the bluehorn carriage, according to common sense, should be rich people, and they will naturally be regarded as fat sheep by some bandits and robbers entrenched in the mountains and forests.
Obviously, Li Xiangnan should have encountered a vicious bandit bandit, otherwise the driver of the carriage would not have run away without waiting for the fare, or even leaving the expensive carriage.
After a while, Li Xiangnan saw a group of people carrying big knives, and they walked over slowly, as if they had come here to visit the scenery, looking very lazy.
Among them, a man with a hideous face and a scar in the corner of his eye thrust the big knife on his shoulder, and then held the handle of the knife, his voice was very loud, and he sang: "I opened this mountain, I opened this road, I want to pass by here, and leave ...... to buy money."
Li Xiangnan looked at this standard scene of bandit robbery, and couldn't help but think that it seemed to be like this everywhere, which made him not feel fresh at all, and couldn't help laughing.
The man at the head was a little annoyed: "The kid in the car, what are you laughing at, isn't the robbery song sung by the uncle not good?" ”
Li Xiangnan sat in the driver's seat, couldn't help but look at the gang of thieves curiously, and said, "Then do you still sing anything else, you people who block the road and rob, don't you have anything else except the old-fashioned few sentences?" ”
Who knows, when the big man saw that Li Xiangnan was not only not frightened, but even chatted with them calmly, but he was discouraged for a while, and said: "Big brother, make a living, we are thieves, not engaged in art, don't we sing a song, shouldn't you obediently hand over your belongings and run away?" ”
Li Xiangnan said: "In this secret martial arts sect, coming out to be a robber and thief is the most unpromising profession, because everyone here practices martial arts, although it is rare to see a hero who draws a sword to help each other, but there are many disciples of various sects and factions who know kung fu, how can you and other helpless bandits be humiliated, don't you know that even if you succeed in robbing the small one, there will be an old one to retaliate?" ”
"Okay, you're amazing, I'm persuaded by you!"
After the scarred man said this, he turned around and said to the people beside him: "Brothers, withdraw!" ”
As he spoke, the big man was the first to start running away, very fast, as if there was a wolf chasing him behind, and the other brothers didn't know why, so they could only run away.
But one of his subordinates was still very puzzled: "Big brother, although we sometimes fail to rob on weekdays, we will all do a calm withdrawal, why are you just saying a few words this time and are about to run, why do you admit it like this?" ”
The big man with the scar couldn't help but slap his head hard, and said angrily: "Bastard, in the surrounding green forest, is Lao Tzu's nickname of the golden knife and one-eyed in vain, and the reason why Lao Tzu has survived until now is precisely because of these one-eyed people who can recognize countless people!" ”
The subordinate said: "Then what do you see that Mingtang is coming, just like this, he ran away first before the fight started, isn't this being laughed at by those bandits?" ”
The golden knife one-eyed said: "When I saw that person for the first time, my eyes stopped jumping, which means that the young man is not simple, although you see, he is not a secret warrior, but my one-eyed told me that he is more terrifying than a secret warrior, how far we can hide from this kind of person, how far we can hide, naturally how far we have to hide."
Lao Tzu wants to believe it, if that young man really wants to kill us, I'm afraid it won't take two breaths, and we will all have to explain there, don't say a few soft words, and then take the opportunity to run away, wait for death! ”
"Okay, we believe that your one-eyed brother is a natural secret treasure and can see the potential danger, isn't it too shameless to just run away like this?"
"Damn, we are thieves, what do we want to do with face, don't come out to do this business if you want face, Lao Tzu is really worried, how will I feed you rice buckets in the future......"
"However, if you miss this fat sheep, it is estimated that it will be difficult to meet in the past two days, even if the young man has no money, but the carriage and the greenhorn are old and valuable, at least in exchange for a month's rations......"
"Rice bucket, if we don't rob ourselves, won't others rob?
We won't follow behind to pick up the cheap, a bunch of stupid pigs, I'm so angry, how could I accept you into the team in the first place, shame! ”
"Didn't you say that if you become a thief, you can lose face, what kind of shame do you ......?"
“……”
……
After the group of thieves ran away, Li Xiangnan didn't pay attention to it, it was just a group of little thieves who were trying to make a living.
After pacifying the bluehorns, Li Xiangnan had no choice but to become a coachman himself and drive the carriage to continue south.
However, this area is barren and sparsely populated, and although the surrounding environment is good, there will be some fierce beasts coming out to forage from time to time.
Those beasts have a primitive wildness, a violent temperament, and a very fierce temperament, which is completely incomparable to those on the earth that can only be kept in captivity in zoos and viewed by people.
Despite this, Li Xiangnan didn't have much interest in hunting these fierce beasts, just driving them away so that they wouldn't startle the bluehorns.
It wasn't until he crossed a mountain and came to a pass that Li Xiangnan suddenly became vigilant.
After this pass, there is a flat river ahead.
But this pass is very steep, and the sides of the mountain road are very straight and steep.
If you use it to ambush the enemy on both sides and roll down a boulder, the impact will be very powerful, and it is indeed a difficult place to defend and difficult to attack.
At the same time, it will naturally become the best place for bandits to ambush and rob passers-by. (To be continued......)
