Chapter 62: Encounter
Situ Jin cut off a section of vine, scraped off the thorns, tied Chizhi to his back and continued to walk forward. The further he went, the higher the terrain became, and the more open the canyon became. He hadn't encountered any beasts along the way, but he had a vague feeling that something had been following him.
Situ Jing didn't stop, no matter what it should come out, it would naturally come out.
Not far ahead, there was actually the sound of water flowing, and the scenery in the canyon was also changing day by day, this section of the road could faintly pass through some sunlight, and it seemed that the place where he fell was very deep, Situ Jing recalled at this time, the group of people seemed to have deliberately driven the three of them to this canyon, after all, they were familiar with the terrain.
Murong Jue's actions are really insidious and vicious, and his calculations are accurate, thinking that although Mu Yunqi has warned him about Murong Jue's cunning, he still underestimates him.
There was just water in front of him, Situ Jing wanted to rest, for many days, he wanted to return to Tianfu as soon as possible, and held the big Chizhi in his hand in front of Mu Yunqi's eyes, imagining her big eyes that were as surprised as a deer, and he couldn't help but snicker, for which he had not rested for two days and two nights.
At this time, he was sitting lazily by the river, drinking water and enjoying the only ray of sunshine at the bottom of the valley.
At this time, a gust of wind blew, Situ Jing took a breath greedily, this is really a long-lost wind, but the smell of this wind is a little strange, he opened his eyes and saw that there were microwaves in the water, but the wave was also a little strange, "It's really weird, everything is weird." โ
So he closed his eyes again, but he was awakened by the flood, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that a giant python was looking down at him, spitting out letters at him.
Suddenly, the giant python opened its mouth and bit him, Situ Jing touched the rusty broken sword beside him, but he didn't touch it, he didn't have time to think about a roll to avoid the python's attack, he quickly ran forward, but the python's speed was faster, and he was about to catch up with him, but he didn't rush to bite him, but swept him out with a flick of his tail.
Situ Jing was thrown straight into the river by the python, and he got up from the river. Seeing that the big python didn't seem to want to kill him immediately, it quickly crawled over and threw him out with another flick of its tail.
After such two falls, Situ Jing couldn't find his sword at all, and he came to duel with the giant python with his bare hands, and he probably didn't have this ability.
Seeing that the giant python rushed over again, Situ Jing no longer dodged, there was no weapon here, and his strength was definitely not comparable to the giant python, but he didn't expect to fall himself to death from the cliff, but he was going to die in the belly of this beast, Situ Jing thought about how unwilling he was.
His eyes widened, and he used all his strength to punch the python's side. Enraged by this sudden attack, the python curled him up with its tail, and then bit by bit wrapped it in its body, trying to squeeze him to death.
At this time, a black shadow fell from the sky, holding a sword in both hands and shouting and slashing at the neck of the giant python, the head of the giant python was broken in response, and a stream of black blood sprayed straight into Situ Jing's face.
The python's body relaxed, and Situ Jing barely crawled out and rushed to the river to wash his face.
After washing his face, Situ Jing sighed: "The good river water has been polluted by you." โ
"You dare to drink this river water, and you are not afraid of poisoning you."
"You kid is getting more and more unruly."
Chu Yuan smiled, knelt down and said, "My subordinates are late to save the driver, please punish Your Highness." โ
Situ Jing smiled and stretched out his wet hands to help Chu Yuan up, "Without you, this king would have died here, and it was the right time to come." โ
Situ Jing wiped his hands dry and went to pick up his great Lingzhi and broken sword, Chu Yuan looked at the giant python behind him and asked, "Your Highness, why did this giant python attack you, if you don't provoke this kind of beast, it will not take the initiative to attack people." โ
Situ Jing patted his big Lingzhi and said: "Oh, that's it, this king killed the giant python guarding Chizhi before, this is probably for the revenge of that guy, they are all so big, it's not that no one believes it." โ
Chu Yuan looked at the giant python lying on the ground, thinking that Situ Jing had single-handedly killed such a big guy, and goosebumps all over his body.
"Your Highness, who are you going to give this Chizhi to?"
"Of course it's for your princess, what's wrong?"
"She deserves it too?"
"I said, why don't you like her so much?"
"It's not because she treated you badly at the beginning, and it's not just me who doesn't want to see her, but His Royal Highness the King of Jin."
"Well, you guys, now she's good to me."
"I don't see it."
The two of them packed up and left here, and Chu Yuan took Situ Jing out of the canyon along the way he came.
Mu Yunqi has eaten and slept well these days, not at all like a kidnapped person, Harigu joked to her: "Why do you enjoy being kidnapped." โ
"Murong Jue, that old fox has a way to deal with me, instead of resisting and not eating good fruits, it is better to obediently enjoy your preferential treatment, don't you say?" Mu Yunqi raised his eyebrows at Harigu and said.
Harigu was amused by her, "You're so funny, just like my little sister, who always makes me laugh." โ
"Do you mean that one named Hua Ruxue?" Mu Yunqi asked as if he didn't know.
"Yes, if only she hadn't married Mu Huaming, she wouldn't have ......," Harigu couldn't go on.
"In that case, you can marry Mu Huaming, can't you?" Mu Yunqi's words were a bit aggressive.
Harigu looked at her and said, "I love him, but I can't marry him, otherwise with his ability and family background, it would be normal to have three wives and four concubines." โ
Mu Yunqi couldn't help but think in his heart, doesn't that mean that he will have many aunts and brothers and sisters, it seems good to think about it, it is better than being alone now and not even having a relative.
As they were talking, they had already come to the border of Huarong City, and Meicheng had been left behind by them.
At this time, Situ Jing and Chu Yuan were about to clear the customs, but they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the city, "What are you carrying here, take it down and check it." โ
Chu Yuan stepped forward and stuffed a piece of silver for the guard and said, "Mountain goods, we are selling medicinal materials, and we are about to go out of the customs to Tianfu to sell medicinal materials. โ
"What kind of medicinal herbs are so big, take them down quickly, check them, and make sure they are medicinal materials before releasing them."
Chu Yuan still had to grind with the guard, but he was drunk, "The prince of Huarong has passed the customs, everyone has avoided it, it is time to release it quickly, and the rest are cleared, and the envoys can only pass after they pass the customs." โ
The guard hurriedly nodded and saluted, "Clear immediately, clear immediately." โ
After saying that, they no longer asked to check the package, and told them to hurry through the customs and leave, and not to linger nearby. They followed a group of civilians and were pushed far away by the soldiers, only to see a carriage slowly approaching, accompanied by hundreds of guards in front of and behind the carriage.
"What kind of person is this who has such a big posture."
"That is the personal guard of King Huarong, it is the most elite team in Huarong, only under the orders of King Huarong, it is said that the people in this team are very powerful, and they can come and go freely anywhere as if they were in a no-man's land, but if they don't show up, they will have a big event."
"That's amazing."
"What's more, it is said that it was this team that King Huarong ascended the throne that he was able to come back from Xifan safely and bring back the princess of Xifan."
"I heard that this team is a dead soldier trained by King Huarong himself, and it will come in handy when performing special tasks, which is very mysterious and powerful."
"Almost, almost, it's the king's personal guard."
The people were talking about this magical team, and Situ Jing always had an ominous premonition when he looked at it, the direction in which this team appeared was Tianfu, and it was coming back from Tianfu, and what important people would be on the carriage that needed to be escorted by Huarong's top team.
Situ Jing couldn't step forward, let alone fight against such a well-organized team with Chu Yuan, so he could only give up returning to Tianfu, no matter what, it was the most important thing to return to Tianfu as soon as possible to see Mu Yunqi.
Mu Yunqi sat in the carriage and looked out, "Is this about to enter the territory of Huarong?" โ
Harigu let out a deep breath and said: "Yes, I have arrived in Huarong, my task is almost completed, thank you for your cooperation along the way, you are a smart person, so you should not suffer much loss when you fight with Murong Jue." โ
"How do you think I'm going to lose?"
Harigu looked at her with a smile that was more ugly than crying, "There is no one who does not suffer in his hands, wellโโ, except Hua Ruxue, because that is his beloved." โ
"Oh?" Mu Yunqi showed a puzzled look.
Harigu no longer looked at her, turned to look at the scenery outside the window, and said: "Murong Jue loves Hua Ruxue deeply, but Ruxue doesn't like him, at that time she had already met Mu Huaming, the two of them Qin Se and Ming, they are a pair made in heaven, no one can be separated, Murong Jue has used a lot of means, but unfortunately nothing works here in Ruxue, that time is really the happiest day in this life, watching Murong Jue eat deflated everywhere in front of Hua Ruxue, it is really happy, hahahaha." โ
Mu Yunqi found that Harigu loved to laugh, as if he was venting something. Mu Yunqi laughed heartily when he imagined his mother dealing with the old fox.
It's just that this smile was missed by Situ Jing, just when Mu Yunqi smiled and lowered the curtains, Situ Jing looked up at the carriage, and saw the carriage that had slowly passed by, he ran to the direction of home without looking back, there were people who loved him, people he loved, and children they all had together, and they were all waiting for him to go home.
