"If liking someone makes people humble and hopeless, then what's the point of liking?"

"Like a person like this, one word heaven, one word hell. Asking for nothing is not the most painful, asking for nothing is. ”

"Why, you're the only one I know who is awake enough to jump into the fire pit."

"It's not, maybe I owed her in my last life, and I'll pay off my debts in this life." - "The Legend of Tsing Yi"

The elite cavalry in front of him is not much easier to deal with if he is not wandering away from the bandits and rogues in this thousand-mile wasteland, and everyone is on the ground in their hearts, and even Wu Shisan, who was in a panic just now, stopped begging for mercy and looked at it with a sneering face.

The banner of a black crow parked on the back of the wolf that roared to the sky was the symbol of the "Wolf Crow Army", although the official name of the cavalry was not told, and they often acted like a whirlwind and clouds without a trace, but for a long time near this hundred miles of wasteland, this banner still broke through a great reputation among the ranks of merchants during this month.

According to these merchants who came and went, this wolf crow army was not an army trained and raised by the princes, nor was it the escort of a great family, but a wild army of unknown origin.

It was like a divine soldier descending from the sky, and just a few months ago, it suddenly appeared in the thousands of miles of wasteland of the Thunder Eye Mountain Range, with frequent activities, which was very different from the previous thieves and rogues.

They will take the initiative to find passing caravans to have a brief contact with them, ask about some small things, and after the contact, they will whizz away like the wind, and will not stay long.

Although they were overbearing and direct, they never robbed passing caravans, and sometimes they would just exchange some food for passing merchants, but they would also leave silver money.

Therefore, when the merchant saw the flag that had appeared faintly in the darkness again, his heart that jumped to his throat had already been put back, and even the merchant who came forward to talk to him stabilized his body at this time, and his tone was respectful and without the previous fear.

"Stand in a row! Everybody's got their hands on it! If there is the slightest abnormality, kill on the spot! Violators will be killed on the spot! ”

The leader of the black cavalry had a cold face and shouted sharply.

The merchant who stepped forward suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and when he saw the cold sword light in the hand of the man sitting on the horse, he no longer dared to open his mouth to please him.

It's just that I secretly complained in my heart, not that the team of merchants said that although the wolf crow army acted domineeringly, it would not kill for no reason, and it was still very easy to deal with it if it found the right way, but this time it was a little abnormal, it seems that these uncles I met were all extremely ruthless people, and I was afraid that if it was a negligence, they would be killed here.

The merchant only felt that the long-lost anxiety had returned to his chest, for fear of provoking the black riders in front of him to end up here with a low heart.

For a while, the anger filled the whole body, so bitter that he couldn't open his mouth, so he had to bow his head and return to the group of businessmen, thinking that he would never run the merchant again after being killed, and after this trip, he hurried back to his hometown to recuperate, so that he didn't have to live this kind of fearful life again.

The other people were also obscure, turning their heads to look around, everyone was looking bitter, and for a while everyone didn't know what to do, but they were afraid that they would lose their lives, so they had to follow the orders of the black horseman.

The merchants and guards lined up cautiously, and the black cavalry warriors gathered together, their right hands brushed on the hilt of their swords, and the other hand checked everyone's actions one by one.

Wu Shisan lined up at the end of the line, trembling and touching a piece of hard line on his waist.

Xiang Zhuang didn't know when he had gotten up from the ground, and was standing beside Wu Shisan at this time, Wu Shisan couldn't help but glance at Xiang Zhuang dumbfounded, he was still holding the pottery cup in his hand, and there was half a cup of tea in it.

The black cavalry warriors investigated extremely carefully under the instructions of their own commanders, not only carefully examined the actions of the merchant guards, the blades and utensils they carried, but also turned their heads to put away those blades.

"Don't they want to catch turtles in an urn at this time? How good is this! ”

Wu Shisan only felt that his legs were trembling at this time, and his mouth trembled and whispered to Xiang Zhuang, and his body was already trembling and unstable for a while.

"They are all from Wanzhou, why are you issued by the imperial capital?"

A black cavalry warrior stared at Xiang Zhuang's calm face through an iron helmet, his hand already grasping the hilt of his sword.

"Because I have lived in the imperial capital for several years, my line is naturally issued by the imperial capital."

Xiang Zhuang did not panic at all, and he was not afraid of the fierce gaze of the black knight, and said in a calm tone.

"Look at your outfit? Not like a trader's. Honestly confess what else is hidden, take it out! ”

The black knight stared at the eyes that were as calm as water, but for a moment he was even more annoyed, his tone was already extremely unkind, and he reached out to grab the bamboo box behind Xiang Zhuang.

"Slow!" , Xiang Zhuang's hand slammed into the wrist stretched out by the black knight between the lightning and flint, his eyes were cold, and the two of them were frozen together for a while, "If you want to search, I can take it out myself, this kind of trivial matter doesn't have to be done by the military master himself!" ”

"Yourself? Look at you cowering like this, I'm afraid there is something hidden in the box that can't see people, right? ”

The black knight shrouded in iron armor snorted coldly, his eyes were fierce, his tone was already cold, and the long knife in his hand was already half out of the scabbard.

A cold knife hit Wu Shisan's face on the side, so frightened that Wu Shisan's body shook a few times, Wu Shisan secretly complained in his heart, why is the character of this gentleman dressed as so stubborn, don't you let the family check it over, I thought that this inspection was in danger, but I didn't expect to be made by this gentleman.

"Oh?"

Xiang Zhuang heard the words of the black cavalry armor, but his eyebrows were slightly raised, and he suddenly raised his head to look directly at the armor soldier, his eyes were cold.

I couldn't see any change in the expression on Xiang Zhuang's face, but the black knight who was facing him head-on was inexplicably heartbroken, as if he was being stared at by a cold poisonous snake, that feeling was very familiar to the black knight, they had just passed through the Thunder Eye Mountain Range and had a headache for those poisonous snakes that could not be guarded against in the wasteland.

And just now, when the scholar, who looked like a child, looked up at each other, the black knight had that familiar feeling again, cold, lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to move.

He didn't hold back for a moment and let go of his hand, and as soon as he raised his head and stared, his eyes were like knives and guns in front of him.

"You're looking for death!"

Which black knight understood what was happening when he came back to his senses, he was frightened away by the eyes of a weak scholar, a scout who had experienced a hundred battles was frightened away by a scholar, and for a while he was carried away with shame and anger, only this person's blood could wash away the shame on him, and he couldn't help it anymore when he thought of this.

"Zheng!"

I only heard a clear sound, and the long knife with half out of the handle was pulled out of its scabbard in an instant, and an extremely cold light completely hit Wu Shisan's face, and the brilliance of the knife at that moment dazzled his eyes, so frightened that he immediately closed his eyes, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart to reminisce about the peerless amazement of that knife.

"Stop! Have you forgotten the command of your chief? ”

At the moment when the knife was unsheathed, it attracted everyone's eyes, and after the black knight commander standing with the knife in the distance squinted his eyes and saw the movement here, his voice was low, and he shouted angrily.

Just as the low cry echoed in the darkness, the long knife that was like the rising moon stopped in an instant, and quietly stopped less than a foot away from the top of Xiang Zhuang's head, and the knife hung on his head, not moving.

Xiang Zhuang squinted his eyes and carefully glanced at the long knife above his head, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, what a beautiful knife, such a fast knife technique, and then glanced at the black cavalry in front of him, the anger in the eyes of the black cavalry warrior faded like a tide, and he put away the knife and stood with his head bowed, Xiang Zhuang frowned, and quietly put away the dagger hidden in his sleeve.

"Damn it, it's only been a few days since it came out, have you forgotten the rules at all, when did the leader's orders not remember in your head?"

The black knight commander standing with a knife in the distance moved slightly, his tone was cold, and he walked slowly step by step towards the black knight, the pace was extremely slow, but each step was as strong as stepping on the sky, and the majestic figure shrouded in the iron armor was like an abyss, attracting all the light between heaven and earth.

The merchant guards stared intently, not knowing what was happening, and when they looked at the slow figure of the black cavalry leader, they only felt that the air was extremely depressed, and everyone trembled, almost unable to stand.

And which black knight armor warrior was the first to bear the brunt of such a momentum, and for a moment he only felt that his body was also stiff.

"Commander, subordinates should die, the leader's orders are not forgotten for a while, and the subordinates are willing to lead the army to set an example!"

When the black cavalry leader walked one step away from the black cavalry, his eyes were cold, and he didn't say a word, and the black cavalry couldn't stand the calm like the eve of a rainstorm, and for a while, his body seemed to collapse, and he fell to the ground violently, and did not lift it up for a long time.

"Go and lead the army yourself, and next time, I will personally behead you!"

The black cavalry commander bowed his head and glanced at the black cavalry warrior at his feet, and his tone was cold.

"Yes, the subordinates will go to lead the army, and the leader's orders will not be forgotten by the subordinates!"

As soon as the words fell, the black knight who was lying on the ground got up and strode towards the warhorse, and as he strided, he removed the hard armor from his body, revealing his sturdy back.

After two or three breaths, he was pressed to the ground by the black cavalry on the side, and the thick paulownia stick was removed from the horse, which was what these black horsemen said about military law.

There were thirty military sticks, and each swing was powerful and heavy, without the slightest affection for comrades, and the back of the black cavalry soldier who was pinned down was already bloody and blurred with only a dozen sticks.

The merchant guards who were watching on the sidelines, all like frosted eggplants at this time, lowered their heads one by one and did not dare to look at the execution scene, and every time they heard the muffled snort of the black knight, these merchant guards shook their bodies.

Obviously, they were terrified to the extreme, treating their own people so cruelly, not to mention treating them as unarmed merchants, who could only pray for their own blessings at this time.

Xiang Zhuang heard a muffled snort from the mouth of the black cavalry soldier in his ears, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder in his heart, so that his subordinates could be willing to accept such a strict military law without any resentment, this was the elite cavalry army under the princes.

"Enough!"

Hearing the cold voice of the black cavalry leader, Wu Shisan's body swung a few times in fright, and he almost fell to the spot, and the black cavalry warrior in the distance hurriedly covered the back of the punished black cavalry warrior with a layer of white cloth after hearing it, and carried it to the side to rest with medicine.

And just when Xiang Zhuang was thinking about it, the black cavalry commander walked slowly, like a majestic mountain peak blocked in front of Xiang Zhuang, first Xiang Zhuang saw the huge collapse dent of the armor on the black cavalry commander's chest, and then saw the pair of eyes that could not see joy and anger.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and the black cavalry commander personally picked up the landing piece and silently glanced at it.

"Get everything out!"

Xiang Zhuang narrowed his eyes and took out some trivial items in the bamboo box, but Wu Shisan on the side was extremely surprised, because there was no map drawn by Xiang Zhuang just now in the bamboo box.

The Black Rider Commander was silent for a long time, swept over the trivial items, and then carefully looked at the empty bamboo box, and nodded slightly.

His gaze lingered on the line for a long time, which recorded that this person had been to many places, but there was no doubt, and finally the black horse commander glanced at Xiang Zhuang and handed it back to him.

"Hmm!"

The Black Rider nodded in salute and turned to leave.

As if for the rest of his life, Wu Shisan sat down tremblingly, covered with cold sweat for a long time, shouting luck in his heart.

Xiang Zhuang just nodded, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, then turned around and sat back by the fire, never looking at the departing black horse commander again.

Xiang Zhuang knew that this person was seriously injured, and the armor made of fine iron had collapsed into dents, and he also knew that if he had the slightest suspicious behavior or omission just now, he would be immediately killed by this person.

His palms were full of sweat, and the power he felt on this black cavalry commander was far better than that of the black cavalry armor just now, and it was also when he was seriously injured and not healed, Xiang Zhuang clenched his palms and bowed his head slightly, he was not sure, although the black cavalry commander did not hold the knife, but he knew that he would definitely die if he made a move.

"Where is this cavalry, it is so elite!"

Xiang Zhuang frowned his eyes and secretly guessed in his heart that the situation was getting more and more chaotic, and he was about to lose sight of the current situation.

"Hey, Mr. Xiang, I saw you hid that map behind the carriage."

Wu Shisan cringed and stretched his head over, with a sneer and a hint of teasing, and said softly close to Xiang Zhuang's ear.

"You are out to make money, and if you encounter things that are not your own interests, don't care so much." Xiang Zhuang was stunned when he turned the teacup in his hand, and glanced at Wu Shisan unhurriedly, "You know too much about these head-killing things, I'm afraid that you won't live long in this hundred miles of wasteland." ”

Wu Shisan looked at Xiang Zhuang with a calm face, and felt a little fear in his heart, and then thought that Mr. Xiang, who looked like a weak scholar just now, dared to confront the fierce black knight, he was stunned for a while, scratched his head with a smile, and retreated to his position.

Wu Shisan was about to nag and say something to Mr. Xiang beside him, when he turned his head to look, but suddenly found that Xiang Zhuang, who was drinking tea on the side, was distracted.

He curiously followed Xiang Zhuang's gaze and saw the leader of the armor in black armor.

When he first saw this black cavalry commander, Wu Shisan had a feeling that he couldn't explain it.

The danger was extreme, the hairs stood on end, like a bottomless abyss, Wu Shisan's business experience for half his life told him that he was an extremely dangerous person, but even so, the magnificent figure of the black cavalry commander still attracted his attention.

Wu Shisan couldn't tell that feeling, in a cold and elite field army like the Wolf Crow Army, there was a kind of quietness on this black cavalry commander that was different from ordinary people.

It's the kind of silence that is extremely quiet and extremely dangerous.

He walked towards the punished black knight, and the other armorers around him saluted and pushed away, and the majestic body of the black knight commander stood in front of the punished armorer, silent for a long time, his every move attracted the hidden gaze of the surrounding merchant guards.

The black cavalry commander slowly stretched out his hand and put it on the top of the punished armor soldier's head, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, after hearing the murmur of his own commander, all the black cavalry soldiers nearby straightened up, extremely religious, and the onlookers were curious to eavesdrop but they were too far away to make a sound.

In the end, I saw the black knight commander withdraw his hand and put it on his chest, and shouted in a strange tone, and the black knights around him bowed their heads and shouted the same.

"Mr. Xiang, what do you think they are doing?"

Wu Shisan probed his brain, cautiously glanced at the movement in the distance, and asked curiously.

Xiang Zhuang took a sip of tea quietly, and after seeing this scene again, some doubts in his chest also came out, he smiled silently, and when he heard the question in his ear, Xiang Zhuang just whispered casually.

"It's an ancient rite of inheritance!"

The bonfire of the Black Riders was also lit, and they were to camp there for the night, until the punished Armorer could mount again, and the majestic Black Rider Commander sat quietly cross-legged in front of the fire.

This group of people was shrouded in black armor, and everyone seemed to be a beast, so the armor soldier sitting cross-legged alone was a beast that restrained the dangerous momentum.

He lifted the visor on his helmet so that the merchant guards around him could see his appearance by the light of the fire, about thirty years old, a pair of eyes were surprisingly bright, the stubble had become sparse and sparse from the fatigue of running outside for a long time, and he felt a little decadent, and his face was so white that it seemed to be a little serious ischemia.

He sat down on the opposite side of the campfire, and slowly uncovered the collapsed and sunken armor in his chest, and the cloth underneath it had been soaked with blood, and became a bloody cloth.

His brow twitched slightly, and he tore open the cloth that was stuck to the wound, and the black knight behind him moved slightly and wanted to step forward to help, but he waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to.
