1. The Deadly Journey Chapter 1 Hidden Murder

It is the spring of March, the earth is green, everything is awake, and a hundred flowers are blooming.

On a mountain trail with a cluttered forest that allows only three horses to go hand in hand. A royal blue car slowly drove in, gradually ...... It's closer......

In a few moments, the carriage made of royal blue canvas carport drove by......

While leaving two rows of rutted marks, it also left laughter along the way.

Even the carport curtain was rendered by this innocent laughter! Layers of royal blue waves rippled in the air......

On the bridge in front of the carport is a young man leaning against him, and you can see his eyes leisurely closed. With the reins hanging on his left hand, he let the horse run on his own.

There was no expression on his calm face. Look at him so carefree, he really has a heart like water, without a ripple. As if indifferent to everything.

Only occasionally when one or two coquettish laughter came from the carriage would the corners of the mouth be slightly hooked, outlining a graceful arc. Who would dare to say that he is really indifferent to everything!?

"The Holy Lord is auspicious, and the world is forever! Long live the Holy Lord, the country is safe! This sudden shout startled all the birds in the woods: I saw the sound of wings flapping and chirping, and there was no end to it! Soaring into the sky like a swarm of bees......

It was a spectacular sight!

But no one has noticed such a big movement!?

Idiot? Or deaf?

Neither! They're just two drunken drunks!

Look at them as they swayed up the trail beside the mountain stream where only footprints could be seen. lest one of them accidentally stumble and fall down the mountain stream.

Finally, the two stopped at a natural opening.

"Little ...... Primary 4 ...... Hmm...... "I only heard the slightly taller drunk in front of me call out to his companion and burp. Blinking his slightly hazy drunken eyes, he continued, "Enter...... Get in...... No? ”

"When...... Of course...... Hmm...... "Another hiccups. The other drunk, shorter, belched and slurred, "I...... Our ...... Wealth...... Treasure is not ...... Still ...... It's still inside! …… Not...... Don't you want to go in...... What's the matter...... How can I do it? After finally saying this, he took a step forward with the strength of wine.

Passing through the long stone path, I saw a natural stone hall in the distance, which was not large enough to accommodate up to seventy or eighty people.

It stands to reason that almost no one will come to such barren mountains and wilderness except for bandits. But I don't know why there are people in this cave today, and there is more than one!

On closer inspection, there were as many as thirty of them, all of whom were unidentified men in black.

They stood in unison for most of the stone hall, and they were all dressed in the same way: the same black power suit with a cloak on their shoulders; The same head wears a black gauze hat and can't see his appearance clearly, and he can't tell his actual age.

They are like one person: yet one person is reproduced into a statue of several people; More like a shadow of a person! One person, thirty or forty identical shadows!

The short little four arrived at the door of the hall and saw a figure in front of him in a daze.

In the drunken haze, he pointed to the person closest to him and said drunken and drunk: "Hmm...... Big...... Big brother! Another hiccup, "You don't ...... It's so fast! Not...... You...... What are you...... Don't you overtake mine!? ”

"Huh...... I said you're drunk...... You still don't believe it......" When Xiao Si looked around strangely, the tall man was too late. slapped him mischievously in the back and said, "I don't ...... I'm not ...... In your ...... Isn't it behind? ”

Xiao Si was stunned, he was confused by the front and back!

I saw him turn his head to look at the eldest brother, and then look back at the man in black in the stone hall.

Frowning and puzzled, "Can ...... But no! …… You...... You're not!? Belch...... Yes!? ”

"They say you're drunk...... Still not admitted...... Not...... This bird doesn't poop on the ground...... Place, hmm...... There will be ...... Who's coming? Hiccup......"

He suddenly opened his eyes in a daze, looking at these inexplicably extra people in black.

The alcohol in the stomach instantly turned into cold sweat and flowed down his back, so strong and murderous!

As if they had thought of something, they looked at each other suspiciously, then turned and ran away as fast as they could. I don't want any treasure! It's important to save your life!

Maybe they shouldn't have come in the first place! No, as soon as they reached the entrance of the cave, they all fell down in unison. Even the little drunkenness in his eyes didn't have time to disappear!

The streak of blood on the neck gradually thickened, and the blood flowed to the ground and spread. In the blink of an eye, it was completely absorbed by the dry soil!

They died weirdly! Death is bizarre! I'm afraid that they will die by themselves, and they won't have time to see how they received this fatal blow!

The rest of the people in the stone hall didn't react much to the deaths of these two uninvited guests. It's as if this kind of thing is already commonplace for them, and it's no wonder!

The two men in black standing at the back dragged the corpse away like a routine, leaving a bloody trail and a grievance along the way!

The rest of the men in black stood like this the whole time, never even moving a little finger.

Looking back to the front: at the back are twelve men in black standing in two rows; Ten in two rows; Seven stand in two rows.

On the high platform at the front, there are two people on the left and right who are dressed slightly differently from the people in the audience: the one on the left is dressed in a black short coat, and the white belt around his waist gives people a cool feeling; The man on the right is wearing a white power suit, a long shirt of the same color, a black belt around the waist, and a ghost mask with black and white patterns on each side.

The one who sat on the eagle stone chair in the center of the stone platform: dressed in goose yellow robes; The embroidered dragon head wears a tulle hat of the same color; Can't tell if it's male or female; Chronological age is not visible; Dressed in yellow, which can only be worn by emperors, adds to the mystery.

At this time, he was playing with a dagger, and slightly turned his head, and the tulle moved slightly. Through the tulle, he swept his eyes and asked lightly, "How is the task completed?" ”

In the row of black-clothed people standing at the front of the stage, the first person on the left knelt down after hearing the sound and replied in a trembling voice: "Go back to the Lord, your subordinates should die!" That surnamed Li De's martial arts is too high, and his subordinates are not his opponents! After saying that, he knelt motionless and waited for the punishment of the man in yellow.

"The result?"

"Missed!"

"You really deserve to die!" With the cold voice, I saw a dazzling light flash away.

Instinctively, the red dragon stretched out his uninjured right hand and clutched it tightly against the large wound on his severed arm. Blood flowed out from between his fingers and sprinkled on the ground like plum blossoms.

Although the face behind the tulle was deformed with pain, there was only indifference in his eyes without the slightest pain. He glanced blankly at the half-severed arm on the ground, and then fixed his gaze on the man in yellow. Looking at him high above, he wiped the dagger lovingly with a white silk......

This gives people the illusion that the Holy Lord had just hurt him? Was the bloody severed arm on the ground his own?

"Red Dragon, this seat will give you another chance, if you still can't kill him this time, just bring up your head to see him!" The man in yellow sheathed the dagger heavily.

"Yes, Lord!" The red dragon clutched his left arm, which was still dripping blood, and got up to leave......

"Wait!" I only heard the Holy Lord stop drinking, and he stopped him when he was about to reach the entrance of the cave.

"What else does the Lord command?" The red dragon was stunned, turned to look at the Holy Lord, and asked respectfully.

"Bring it on!" As he spoke, a small white porcelain vase shot straight towards the door in front of him!

With a wave of his right hand, the red dragon grabbed it squarely. Suspiciously, he glanced at it and cast an inquiring glance at the Holy Lord: "This? ......Of course, he also understood that this vial was definitely not the golden medicine used to heal his wounds.

What's in it? It seems that the Holy Lord did not intend to tell him. The red dragon probably thought of it too! I saw him turn around and walk out of the cave towards the bottom of the mountain.

"Dark Night," looking at the back of the red dragon leaving, the Holy Lord asked the black-clothed ghost-faced man standing indifferently on the side, "What about the head surnamed Di?" ”

"When I returned to the Lord, when I went down, the building was empty. Just threw a few torches at Di Fu. I didn't see anyone else. Dark Night shrugged indifferently and continued, "I didn't find what you were looking for!" ”

"Saying that failed again! Well? The Holy Lord tried his best to restrain his emotions, and his hands clutched the armrests on both sides of the stone chair. The hard stone was pinched through by his ten fingers like tofu dregs!

The sharp eyes swept away the dark night, and then looked at the audience and shouted angrily: "A group of rice buckets! ”

The dagger in his hand also let out a dragon roar at the right time! It seems that it is not an ordinary dagger, but a weapon that can know the master's mind.

"The Red Dragon will be defeated on this trip!" On the other side, the white-clothed ghost-faced man who had never spoken, said coldly without any emotion.

"What's the explanation?" There was a hint of encouragement in the Holy Lord's words, "White Shadow, you might as well speak directly!" ”

"The Red Dragon will definitely be defeated!" Bai Ying looked at the entrance of the cave and continued with certainty, "If you want to get rid of General Li, who is strong in martial arts, unless you ......"

"No unless!" The Holy Lord suddenly stood up from the stone chair and interrupted the night's unfinished words. He coldly continued, "This seat doesn't need waste!" White Shadow you go! As long as the result! ”

"Yes, Lord!" There was no trace of him in the Hall of Falling Stones, and sometimes it was good not to ask anything. Although he knew very well, he was also unsure about dealing with the surnamed Li himself. But he had to go, because it was a command from the Lord himself, and he could not disobey it.

"The surname is Di, even though you are as cunning as a fox. Once you get rid of the surname Li, you will become a toothless tiger and an eagle with broken wings. The world is still mine! Then he looked up to the sky and laughed.

The carriage was still moving slowly, neither fast nor slow, and the people in the carriage did not yet know that danger was approaching. Only the young man who drove felt it!

The closed eyes suddenly opened, strange!?

How did you feel like a pair of eyes were staring at you with bad intentions? There was a murderous intent in those eyes!

He closed his eyes again alertly, trying to find the chilling sensation he had just had. However, no matter how hard he tried this time, he got nothing in the end. Is it a delusion!?

In the middle of the night, he opened his eyes and carefully observed the weedy jungle on both sides of the path, and found nothing except a few more butterflies!

"Humph! The soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth! It seems that trying to confuse the audio-visual will not work! In that case, let's break in! ”

After speaking proudly, he turned over and sat upright, tugged at the reins with both hands, shook his wrists, and slammed the reins on the horse's back. The horse neighed in pain and instinctively sped up.

As the carriage accelerated, the originally laughing people in the carriage couldn't help but fall silent, and the air was filled with a depressing feeling, and it was so silent that it was hard to breathe.

At this time, sitting opposite the carriage window, a middle-aged man wearing a Confucian costume with a cloth scarf on his head, holding a folding fan in his hand, asked in a deep voice: "Dieniang, how long will it take to arrive?" The words contained anxiety and boredom, and seemed to be preoccupied. It's as if there is infinite hope in the place yet to come!

The royal blue curtain moved slightly, and I saw a Qianqianyu hand lifting the cloth curtain, revealing a pretty face, and the delicate facial features were just right. The woman in purple, known as "Butterfly Niang", looked at the receding mountain peak, lowered the curtain and replied, "My lord, I will be there before dark tomorrow!" ”

"Old friend, we're going to meet again!" Gently stroking the eagle-shaped ring on his hand, the man in Confucian clothes was immersed in memories......

A light breeze playfully played with the curtain and let it fly in the air. It also made the Confucian man sober up from his memories. He hugged the little girl who was lying on the window and watching the scenery and hugged her tightly in his arms. Looking out the window, the shadows of the mountains only wish the carriage could be faster, faster......

Hurry up to Ganliang Road and hand over the nine- or ten-year-old little girl in a pink dress in her arms to the auspicious khan waiting there. When he has no worries, he can only give it a go, he must go back! If you don't stop the day stealing, the world will be in chaos!
