Chapter Seventy-Four: Thieves Are Hard to Prevent
That smile always makes people feel meaningful, and it seems to reveal a slightly dangerous aura unintentionally.
Ye Lingyu watched the woman get into the carriage, and an inexplicable uneasiness lingered in his heart. I feel a little hairy in my heart, but I can't tell what's wrong.
"This girl, although we can't prove our identity, it's really not what you think. We're a little desperate now, and we hope that the girl can help us again. If you really don't feel at ease, you can let your powerful men sit in the same car with us. When Ye Lingyu said this, he was neither arrogant nor humble.
The woman pushed the window open from inside the car and poked her head out.
"Though you say this, you still have no basis for what you say. I can't carry you without the heart of guarding, I'm sorry. She looked apologetic, "If you want to go to Se'an City, you can go all the way there." ”
Although Ye Lingyu and the others couldn't be allowed to go along, they kindly helped them point out the direction.
Seeing her like this, Ye Lingyu didn't say anything more.
After the man's order, the convoy set off again, and the rumbling of wheels resounded in the four fields, and disappeared into the distance after a moment.
"Who, this is. Mo Fei frowned and scolded, "When we are bandits, I see that your whole family is bandits." There is also that woman, who is obviously in charge of her own house, but she can make decisions by others, and sooner or later she will be sold and she will not know. ”
"Okay, don't break your mouth, others don't want to take us, they also have their own considerations, there is no need to force this kind of thing. Ye Lingyu said with relief.
Although I am a little unhappy to be misunderstood, I am not so angry that I am not angry about it.
It's already said that for that kind of sake, others don't want to take them, so there's no way. But at least knowing the direction of Sai'an City, it's not a loss.
The two of them straightened up a little and continued on their way.
Walking through the wind and sand, time flew by, and when the two stopped again, the sky was completely dark, and the surroundings were dark, only the sound of the wind echoed in their ears.
The two of them found a huge bare rock, about thirty feet high, which looked like a small mountain from a distance.
They carved a hole halfway up the rock for two people, and then curled up inside. The night in the desert is the time when all kinds of poisonous insects and poisonous beasts are infested, and Ye Lingyu and the others are not willing to stay on the ground all the time.
The night was getting deeper, and when it was close to midnight, Ye Lingyu was suddenly awakened by a sound of rustling.
He hadn't fallen asleep completely, but as soon as the movement sounded, he immediately became alert.
He slapped Murphy twice with his hand, and woke up the guy who was sleeping like a dead pig.
"What's the matter, it's not ...... dawn yet" As soon as Mo Fei spoke, he was covered by Ye Lingyu.
Ye Lingyu pointed to the bottom of the rock in the dimness, indicating that there was a situation. Mo Fei nodded slightly, looked in the direction pointed by Ye Lingyu, and saw a figure wandering sneakily under the rock.
The man was holding a night pearl in his hand, and the halo on the night pearl illuminated his face, and this person was the man named Zhuang Sheng in the morning.
"Why is he here?" Mo Fei lowered his voice to a low and asked quietly, there was a wind to cover up, and he was not afraid that the voice would be heard by the man, "He must have come to us." ”
Although there was a relationship in the morning, there was no grudge.
"It doesn't look like it. Ye Lingyu watched Zhuang Sheng's every move.
Johnson's movements are sneaky, but it doesn't look like he's looking for someone.
I saw him swing around under the rock twice, then took out a jade flute, mustered up his spiritual power, and blew it hard.
The jade flute didn't make a sound, but Ye Lingyu keenly sensed that streams of spiritual power were spreading out from the jade flute.
After the spiritual power spread, about half a pillar of incense time had passed, and the surrounding sand grains suddenly began to vibrate, followed by the sound of chaotic footsteps.
I saw a series of thirty or forty figures appear under the rock.
"Old Ye, we are surrounded. When Mo Fei saw this posture, his head shrank back, and he pinched his throat and shouted, "Should they look at Lao Tzu's rich and noble face, and want to arrest Lao Tzu in exchange for ransom." ”
"Don't be silent, these people aren't coming at us. Ye Lingyu glared at him.
The more times like this, the more Young Master Mo's nerves jumped, and the escape route has always been weird. Ye Lingyu couldn't figure out how he could come to the conclusion of kidnapping him in exchange for ransom.
These people gathered under the rocks, apparently for a different purpose. Ye Lingyu sensed slightly, and then fixed his gaze on one of them, this person was the most powerful one in this group, and he had the cultivation of the third level of the Xuan Rank. The guy was wearing a black cloak, a hooked nose, a thin, pointed chin, and eyes like a falcon.
"These guys can't be bandits. Seeing that there was no danger, Murphy began to mumble again.
They had also heard from the convoy before, that in this desert, there were always some thieves and bandits who joined forces to fight some passing convoys.
"It should have been the morning when the convoy was targeted. Ye Lingyu guessed.
The convoy was already hauling goods, and the speed was not very fast, but now it was probably parked not far away.
As for the guy named Zhuang Sheng, there is no doubt that he is in collusion with these bandits.
Ye Lingyu finally understood why he didn't let the two of them get into the car in the morning, I was afraid that he was worried that it would disturb his plans. One more person in the convoy is one more risk.
Thieves are easy to guard, but house thieves are difficult to prevent, and the woman who led the team probably never dreamed that such scum would appear in her team.
Murphy cocked his collar to cover half of his face, then retracted into the hole with his arms in his arms and continued to lie down.
"When is it, you're still sleeping. Ye Lingyu was a little unaccustomed to his lazy appearance, and snorted at the moment.
Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders with his eyes closed, disapproving: "So what, these people are not coming at us, no matter how much they do." ”
"These people seemed to be staring at the wagon in the morning. ”
"Stare at it, it's our business. It's not like you didn't see them swaggering in the morning, and you're pretending to be a good person now. Murphy curled up, smashed, and yawned.
He has never been a person who cares about right and wrong, as long as he is comfortable, even if the sky falls, he is happy.
Hearing him say this, Ye Lingyu was also silent for a while.
It's not that you have to sit idly by, it's just that among those bandits, there is a third-level martial artist in charge. Ye Lingyu was confident that it was okay to deal with a Xuan-level two-layer, but if he was dealing with a third-layer, he was not sure at all.
As he pondered, the group below began to move.
Under the leadership of the man named Zhuang Sheng, a group of people quietly touched a hill opposite.
Not long after they touched it, there was a sudden explosion on the other side of the hill. It was as if something had been ignited, and the entire direction of the hill was ablaze.
Mo Fei didn't sleep anymore, lying at the entrance of the cave and looking into the distance: "It's been a fight so soon, and I don't know which side can win." ”
Ye Lingyu clasped his hands in his arms, and his eyes were sharp: "While planning for a long time, I was caught off guard on the other hand, and I am afraid that the caravan side will not be able to support it for long." ”
He originally wanted to say that there was a third-level Xuan Rank on the side of the bandits, which could make or break the victory, but after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't say it. Somehow, he felt a little guilty in his heart, although the caravan didn't take them, but the woman showed them the way, and speaking of which, they owed each other a favor.
Just as Ye Lingyu was hesitating whether he should go over and take a look, several figures suddenly rushed out of the dim light in the distance.
When they looked closely, they found that the woman in red who was running at the forefront was the woman in red who showed them the way.
The woman panicked, and there were two other martial artists around her to cover her, both of whom were cultivators at the peak of the Yellow Order, and they were both injured at the moment. After them, five other people chased after them, and the man named Zhuang Sheng was among them.
"Zhuang Sheng, the traitor seeks glory, you can't die well!" The woman didn't look back, and scolded loudly, and the scolding contained a faint sobbing sound.
"Lord Ruoning, just scold, scolding is happy, I'll take you down in a while, see if you can still scold. Zhuang Sheng was not ashamed, but proud, and laughed out loud.
Ruo Ning is only a fifth-level cultivator of the Yellow Order, and the two people who protect her are only the peak of the Yellow Order, and Zhuang Sheng is dignified and Xuan-level, and he doesn't take them seriously at all.
If this chase continues, sooner or later, Ruoning's side will fall into a desperate situation, and it will only be a matter of time.
Seeing that the other party was about to catch up, a Huang Jiejie gritted his teeth fiercely, stomped on the ground under his feet, turned around after a sharp stop, and put the long knife in front of him: "Lord Ruoning, you go first, I'll stop them." ”
Ruo Ning hurriedly turned around, and before he could speak, another Huang Jie also turned around and stopped: "Lord Ruo Ning will go first, and I will wait to stay behind the palace." ”
"You ......" Ruo Ningmei's eyes suddenly burst into tears, and she choked up and blocked the words in her mouth when she opened her mouth.
What would happen if she stayed, how could she not be clear.
She tried to dissuade her men, but she knew she couldn't do anything about it. If she stopped now, then the death of these two people would be wasted. The next moment he bit his lip and turned his head away.
"Two wastes, dare to block the car. Zhuang Sheng let out a loud roar, and his feet sped up a few points. Looking at that posture, it is bound to crush the two little minions in front of him.
However, at this moment, the warrior who stopped behind suddenly took a step forward and slapped his palm on the vest of the previous warrior.
This palm was extremely ruthless, and the palm force penetrated the opponent's chest, instantly shattering the person's heart.
The previous man's face was incredulous, and he couldn't understand why he was attacked by his own people, he turned his head slowly, a stream of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and then his whole body was soft, and he slowly fell to his knees, and didn't say a word until the end.
When Zhuang Sheng saw this scene, he was first surprised, then happy, and then laughed.
The person who attacked his companion threw the long knife in his hand and knelt down directly towards Zhuang Sheng: "My lord, the villain is willing to surrender, and I beg the adult to spare the life of the little one." ”
The begging voice pierced Ruoning's heart like a needle, her face became even more sad, two lines of tears slipped silently down her cheeks, and the fire-colored dress also became dull under such a night.
At this critical juncture of life and death, he has become so helpless, the faithful die unexpectedly, while the young can be rampant. She hated her own incompetence, and she hated the betrayer.
A thought suddenly popped into her mind, instead of running down like this and being caught, it was better to fight to the death here.
Although he knew that he would definitely die, he was fortunate to escape alive in grief, and finally fell into the prisoner of the stairs.
However, just as she was about to make up her mind, she raised her head, and suddenly saw a hole in a high rock in front of her, and at the entrance of the cave, two figures were standing at the moment, probing their brains outward.
