Chapter 21: Attacked

In this way, Lu Li embarked on the difficult journey of accompanying Shangguan Yinling south to Baozhou.

The further south I went, the more I felt the mud under my feet, and when I reached Baozhou for less than a hundred miles, the sky was gloomy and a light rain was falling.

"Why is it raining again, is this disaster going to be serious again?" Xu Yun unfolded his palm, and the raindrops slowly condensed into a ball in his palm, he shook his hand and sighed lightly.

Baozhou and several nearby cities have been flooded once, several cities have just survived the disaster, and there are still a hundred ruins waiting to be rebuilt, most of the losses in the city, nearly 1,000 people died unexpectedly in the disaster, but this day is still not clear.

Isn't it true that God doesn't open his eyes?

Several people continued to ride south, the road was muddy, and the horses were also difficult to walk, Liang Song followed behind Lu Li, took out a cake from his baggage and handed it to Lu Li.

"You kid, don't listen to me, you know you're tired." Lu Li took out the kettle and handed it to Liang Song, he took a few sips and pressed the choked cake.

"It's okay, I'm young and strong, and I don't feel tired at all."

At this time, Lu Cheng, who was in Yizhou, received a letter from a flying pigeon printed with a unique red flame logo, and the pigeon landed on the back of his smooth and thin hand like a human being.

Lu Chenghe opened his eyes slightly from the wide back of his chair, reached out and grabbed the carrier pigeon, opened the letter box wrapped around the soles of its feet, and took out a very small note from it.

"Shangguan Yinling has already transported disaster relief funds to Yizhou, and quickly blocked it."

Lu Cheng threw the note into the brazier not far from his feet, and the well-made paper caught fire and instantly turned into dust and smoke.

It's been cold here for too many days, and the rain has been incessant, and he has lost the patience to do everything.

At this time, Hongyan, who had a lot of things, sent him a message again.

On such a rainy day, don't you know that the most annoying thing for him is getting his boots wet?

Your Highness, a woman in a black skirt respectfully walked in front of Lu Chenghe, clasped her hands slightly, and saluted.

"Palace Master."

"Bring dozens of good people and come with me." Lu Chenghe casually released the carrier pigeon, the carrier pigeon flipped its wings and flew away, he clapped his hands, got up, picked up a sword from the weapon rack next to him, and walked out of the hall, his coat was slowly lifted by the wind, he turned over and got on his horse, and took a team of men in black to rush to the direction of the pipeline.

The horse's hooves stepped on the muddy ground, splashing a little muddy water, and soon, Lu Cheng and his group caught up with Shangguan Yinling and his party.

At this moment, Shangguan Yinling and his party were still less than fifty miles away from Baozhou, and it was still raining lightly around, and the carriage was carrying an extraordinarily heavy disaster relief money and grain and grass, rolling a deep trace in the mud.

In the distance, Lu Li's ears moved, and he seemed to hear the sound of a fast horse stepping on the ground.

She has always had good ear skills, and when she was a child, she was hungry and went to steal steamed buns from restaurants, and she was often saved from being beaten because of this trick.

"My lord, a small group of men is chasing in our direction." Lu Li drove the horse forward two steps, caught up with Shangguan Yuling's horse in front, leaned into his ear, and whispered a reminder.

Shangguan Yuling held his breath and listened carefully for a moment, there was indeed a team of people and horses, and they were getting closer and closer, and it was expected that there should be thirty or forty people, with a strong purpose, and the horse's foot strength was also very fast.

"Be smart, maybe it's coming for us." Shangguan Yinling lowered his voice to remind, and then shouted to the brothers behind him, "Speed up, you will soon reach the boundary of Baozhou!" ”

The group quickened their pace, but even so, it was impossible to match the speed of those people who got on their horses lightly.

In a moment, the centaur slowly approached, and from a distance, he saw a group of black-pressed centaurs from behind, menacing, rushing towards them.

Shangguan Yinling clenched the reins of the horse, although there was no expression on his face, his ears were keenly aware of the movements behind him.

Sure enough, these thirty or so people, after catching up with them, quickly spread out, surrounding them in a circle.

The man at the head was quite handsome, with a bit of contempt and indifference on his face, pulled the reins of the horse, and stopped in front of Shangguan Yuling.

The person he brought with him also wore a mask to cover up, but he didn't mind exposing himself in the slightest.

"Moon Shadow Palace Lu Chenghe, Your Excellency is Shangguan Yinling?"

"Exactly." Shangguan Yinling frowned slightly, hearing that this Moon Shadow Palace was the No. 1 Demon Sect in the martial arts, but he didn't know when he would start to take care of the affairs of their official mansion.

"I, the Moon Shadow Palace, have been entrusted by others, and I must leave this disaster relief money today, Lord Shangguan, don't hurt my brother's life for some silver." Lu Chenghe tightened the reins of the horse, and the horse stepped in place, snorting a breath, and the hot breath rose under the cold rain curtain.

"It is natural for court officials to serve the people and escort the people's food and property with their lives."

"In this case, I will fulfill the righteousness of Lord Shangguan."

Lu Chenghe pulled out the sword, the blade was divided into falling raindrops, the rain condensed along the sword surface, and flowed down from the tip of the sword, Shangguan Yinling also pulled out the sword, and the two clashed with force, the sword qi was mixed with water vapor, and a light mist rose around them.

The brothers below were also inseparable from the disciples of the Moon Shadow Palace, and for a while, a low roar accompanied by the sound of weapons colliding sounded in Lu Li's ears.

She has a bit of three-legged cat kung fu, and she still has a little spare strength to treat these and small people, but it is a little difficult to protect Liang Song.

"Get out of the way!" Lu Li threw Liang Song a long sword and drove him to a safe place, and he swung his sword and slashed it.

Her martial arts skills are average, she is better than cleverness, ordinary people can't hurt her, but she can take advantage of people's inattention to give a move, and she is really yin, and several Moon Shadow Palace disciples have fallen for her move.

Lu Li curled his lips with satisfaction, sure enough, walking the rivers and lakes in these years, it is not enough to rely on force, but also to have brains.

Fortunately, Shangguan Yinling brought out all of his well-trained cronies, and he didn't suffer too much against these murderous demon cultists in the Moon Shadow Palace, and he was able to draw with the other party.

But if this continues, it will not be good for them after all.

They hurried for days, and encountered rain halfway, so they did not rest much, and against the enemy with abundant strength, it was good for a short time, but it would be too much of a loss for a long time.

Lu Li rolled her eyes and took out the new poison she had just pulled the doctor from her arms the day before yesterday.

Although this kind of poison is called poison, it is non-toxic and harmless, and when sprinkled on a person's body, it is like holding a peach and rubbing it all over the body.

During the experiment, in order to test the effect, she secretly tried it for both the doctor and Duan Lang, even if she touched her body a little, she could itch so much that it was difficult to control herself.

Lu Li took out the special casing gloves, poured the medicine powder on his hand, opened his arms, and hugged the man in black who attacked her.

Without exception, the people she touched fell to the ground instantly, itching unbearably.

For a while, most of the people in the Moon Shadow Palace had been recruited.

"Palace master, this kid has ...... Poisonous! ”
