Ji Heng saw Qu Hao's sword against his chest, but he calmed down, didn't run or scold, just said to him coldly: "If you want to kill, kill it, I don't know anything, I won't tell you anything." ”

Seeing this, Qu Hao knew that forcing him would not lead to anything, and it was pointless to kill him, so he had to withdraw his sword and say to him, "You can go." ”

Ji Heng didn't look back, and strode forward.

Qu Hao let Ji Heng go, and saw that he had already walked away, so he put the copper flute sword away, and went down the steep slope to the position where Ji Jiao used to stop the boat, but now it has become his tomb.

Qu Hao dived into the water first and salvaged the backpack left in the river last time. He was worried that it would be inconvenient to carry this large backpack on his back, so he took the mobile phone in the backpack, the solar charging treasure and two night pearls, two sets of field first aid kits, four boxes of Yunnan Baiyao, and other things were packed in a large plastic and buried behind Ji Jiao's tomb, and carefully restored the weeds on it.

The biggest surprise in finding Ji Jiao was the information that Meng Yao was still alive, which made him more confident in finding Meng Yao. He wanted to find the carriage of Chen Guo engraved with an eagle on the back as soon as possible, and all Qu Hao wanted was to go to Shucheng to buy a horse first, so as to reach Chen Guo as soon as possible.

After sorting out his belongings, Qu Hao picked up a few dead branches and lit them, and silently worshiped Ji Jiao's tomb. Although this person almost killed himself and died innocently, after all, he died under his own copper flute, and he died to protect his child, which is somewhat tragic. Qu Hao is seeking solace in his soul, relieving his psychological pressure by praying for him to rest in peace and for his soul to be exceeded.

Before coming to the ancient society, Qu Hao never thought that his hands would be stained with human blood. But now, these days, two soldiers, two boatmen, and two murderers have died at their own hands, not because of how cruel they are, but because they are making a choice between life and death with their opponents. Of course, the two murderers who robbed Wu Rong's child were killed by themselves, but these two people died unjustly. I would never have any remorse for killing these people.

Of course, Qu Hao also prayed that he would not encounter anyone who forced him to make a life-or-death choice. I don't want to die myself, and I don't want others to die because of me.

After doing these things, after Qu Hao went ashore, he strode in the direction of Shucheng.

Life is like this sometimes, the more you don't want it to happen, the more likely it is to happen. Seeing that it was not too far from Shucheng, Qu Hao found that there was a situation.

Qu Hao was very vigilant all the way, and his walking speed was not slow, and as he walked, he keenly saw two people running out of the woods on the side of the road quietly, hiding behind a very thick tree, obviously wanting to sneak attack after he got closer.

There are very few pedestrians on this road, and if someone sneaks up on it, the gangsters can rob and kill people and disappear without a trace, which can be described as a robbery treasure.

Qu Hao didn't dare to relax in the slightest, slowed down his pace, didn't let the opponent hear his voice to judge the distance, and at the same time held the copper flute in his hand in case an arrow suddenly flew in.

Sure enough, the two gangsters behind the big tree couldn't hold back and jumped out, each holding a longbow in their hands, and shot two arrows at Qu Hao.

Because Qu Hao slowed down and the distance was a little far, the speed of the arrows had dropped a lot when they flew over, and Qu Hao quickly used the copper flute to push the two arrows away.

Seeing that the arrows missed, the gangsters each took another arrow and ran towards Qu Hao, wanting to attack again at a close distance.

Qu Hao didn't want to be the target for others to practice archery, so he quickly ran behind a big tree on the side of the road to dodge the arrows, and pulled his sword out of the copper flute, stretching out half of his face to observe the next move of the two gangsters.

Seeing that the long-distance attack was useless, the gangsters had to put their bows and arrows on the ground, and each used a short knife to run towards Qu Hao's big tree.

Seeing that they no longer had long-range attack weapons, Qu Hao hid his sword behind the big tree with his right hand and walked out from behind the big tree, standing on the right side of the big tree, waiting for them to come.

Seeing that Qu Hao was standing next to the big tree and couldn't attack from both sides, the gangsters rushed over from the front together, stopping a few meters away from Qu Hao, and one of them said loudly: "Strong man Hugh, our family only wants money, as long as you hand over the money bag, you will be released immediately to eliminate the disaster." ”

Qu Hao thought to himself: Obviously, they are shooting arrows and killing first, and then robbing, these people are too hateful to do evil, it is better to tease them first.

"Of course there is money, it depends on whether you have the ability to take it." Qu Hao said.

These two people also saw Qu Hao use the copper flute to open the arrow just now, and they knew that what they met was not an ordinary person.

"Let's mix here, we've never missed a beat, do you know grandpa's name?" Not to be outdone, the gangsters wanted to scare Qu Hao.

Qu Hao smiled and asked, "Do you dare to compare your name with your grandfather?" There's a kind of newspaper name. ”

"Grandpas are famous swords and arrows, who are you?" The villain was very arrogant on the outside, but he was a little empty in his heart, Qu Hao's composure made them a little flustered, thinking that they might have met a martial arts master.

Qu Hao knew in his heart that the more famous and kung fu masters he was, the more low-key he was, and those who boasted about themselves with such fanfare were some gangsters.

It occurred to him that he should have a name, so that he might be able to scare the thugs. Li Bai's famous poem "Chivalrous Journey" flashed in his mind: "Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles." So he said casually: "In Xiajianghu, people call it ten steps and one kill." As he spoke, he shook his hand and showed the sword in his right hand, only to see a flash of cold light, and the sharp blade made people shudder.

At that time, it was still the Bronze Age, how could the bronze blade have such a cold light? Seeing that their opponent was holding such a sharp sword, the two of them couldn't help but feel a little weak.

"It turned out to be a kill in ten steps, and I have heard of the name for a long time, and I was offended." The murderous aura of Jian Feng and the name "Ten Steps and One Kill" really frightened their already weak nerves, and after barely finishing the cliché, they turned around and ran, and they didn't even have time to pick up the two bows, and they ran away without a trace after a while.

Qu Hao smiled bitterly, put away the sword and continued to walk forward, seeing that the two bows were still on the ground, he was worried that the two gangsters would continue to harm people after they came back and found them, so he cut off the bowstrings of the two bows and threw them into the grass.

When I approached Shucheng, I saw that the old man who was selling pears was still selling pears. Qu Hao stepped forward, bought a few more pears, and chatted with the uncle while eating.

"Uncle, you sell pears here, have you ever seen a carriage with an eagle engraved on the back?" Qu Hao asked.

"I really didn't pay attention to this, there were too many cars and people coming and going, and I didn't usually pay much attention to these things on the carriage." The old man replied.

Qu Hao thought about it, this is also normal, people are concentrating on selling pears. But for himself, the carriage engraved with the eagle is the only clue at the moment, and he can't let it go no matter what.

"Uncle, do you know which inn these coachmen like to live in?" Although Qu Hao also looked for the carriage in Shucheng last time, he didn't have any clues about the carriage, and he thought that he must not let go of anything this time.

"Coachmen usually stay in inns close to the roadside, so that they can continue on the road. On the long-distance carriage line, there is a house every ten miles, which is a special place for the carriage to rest and eat; There is accommodation every thirty miles, and it is a place for coachmen to live, and it is certainly not wrong to look for a carriage there. Uncle said.

Qu Hao was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly thanked the uncle. Since there was a special house for carriages, he was confident that he would find a carriage with an eagle pattern.

Bidding farewell to the old man selling pears, Qu Hao continued to walk towards and arrived at Shucheng when it was dark. I found an inn, and after dinner, I rested early. He wants to buy a horse for tomorrow and go to Chen Guo to recuperate.

After Qu Hao found the inn, he simply washed up and fell asleep.

Although I was very tired, I felt suddenly enlightened after listening to the clues of Lu and Su that Uncle Pear Seller said, and I thought that I would find Chen Guo along the carriageway, and I should be able to find some useful information along the way, and finally find Meng Yao.

I slept until midnight, and suddenly I heard a muffled cry from next door.
