Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to leave silently.

As if he saw it, the old monk slowly opened his eyes, looked at the backs of everyone in the distance, and muttered to himself: "The destiny is hard to disobey!" He looked compassionate, and a hint of wisdom flashed in his cloudy eyes.

Jiang Nan stopped in surprise, looked back in the direction of the old monk, and seemed to hear him speaking just now, although it was very light, but it still couldn't escape his ears. After observing for a moment, he found no abnormality, and turned around and chased after everyone quickly.

Seeing this, the old monk hurriedly concentrated on his voice, but there were turbulent waves in his heart, the young man is so keen to hear, he can still hear his own voice from such a distance, and his internal strength must be extremely profound. frowned slightly, Jiangnan's physiognomy appeared in his mind, pinched his fingers and calculated, and he didn't sort out his eyebrows for a long time, as if he was shrouded in a fog, he couldn't see it very clearly, and sighed decadently.

Out of Yongming Temple, Jiangnan suggested going to Leifeng Pagoda to have a look.

Yao Zhankui stared at Jiang Nan with a stunned expression, obviously he hadn't heard of it.

However, the shopkeeper Huang stepped forward and explained softly: "There is a thunder peak on the nearby Xizhao Mountain, but I have never heard of a tower on it. ”

Jiang Nan paused for a moment, secretly feeling that there are still many differences between the two worlds, so he touched his nose awkwardly and said that he had made a mistake.

The sun was thin, and when twilight fell, everyone went home.

The shopkeeper Huang was busy preparing wine and food, Jiang Nan and Yao Zhankui were drinking tea and chatting in the front hall, and Xiaocui was waiting.

Deputy housekeeper Pang came in from outside the door, carrying two paper bags in his hands, and said with a smile: "Master! Jiang Gongzi! After you went out, I went to a nearby tea shop and bought some tea from the season. I heard that the tea here is very famous, so you two can try it. ”

As he spoke, he handed the paper bag in his hand to Xiao Cui.

When Yao Zhankui heard this, he patted his head and exclaimed: "I just care about accompanying my brother Xian to go shopping, but I forgot about this, and Pang Qing thought thoughtfully." Xiao Cui, help us make a new bowl. After speaking, he commanded: "Pang Qing, this tea is not cheap, when you go back to Jiangdu, you go to the account office to spend the money, and you can't let you pay this money." ”

"It's not much money, just be a small filial piety......" Pang Qing bowed and said halfway through, but was interrupted by Yao Zhankui raising his hand.

"It's not easy for you to make some money, I have your heart. Listen to me, go back and spend the money. Yao Zhankui looked at Pang Qing and said slowly.

Seeing that he insisted, Pang Qing couldn't say anything, nodded in response, confessed, and retreated.

After a while, Xiao Cui brought up two bowls of brewed tea.

Jiang Nan held up the tea bowl, saluted Yao Zhankui from afar, and looked back in front of him, the tea soup was clear and bright, apricot green; The tea leaves are tender and green, blooming upright and lifelike; Put it to your mouth, the fragrance comes to your nose, and it is high and lasting; Take a sip, the fragrance between the teeth, and the aftertaste is endless. secretly praised a good tea in his heart, it seems that Pang Qing has a heart.

Both of them reminisced about the aroma of tea, and neither of them spoke, as if they could not bear to break the tranquility. Until the shopkeeper Huang came to inform him that the meal was ready.

I'm going to leave for Jiangdu tomorrow, and it's a long way to go, so tonight's meal is extraordinarily rich.

Yao Zhankui was worried that he would make a mistake when drinking, so he didn't let everyone drink freely, so he stopped after a shallow taste.

Although the family members were full of complaints, they couldn't say anything, so they all went back to their rooms after a full meal.

Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Jiang Nan was woken up by the sound of everyone's talking.

Compared with Jiangnan, the family has developed the habit of getting up early, and if they miss the master's business, it is light to be scolded, and it is difficult to get it back if they lose their jobs.

Worried that everyone couldn't find a place to eat on the road, the shopkeeper Huang ordered someone to steam several large pots of steamed buns last night and take them on the road, so you don't have to worry about being hungry. It is not unreasonable to be able to gain Yao Zhankui's trust.

led a group of family members to escort everyone out of the city, and the shopkeeper Huang went home, after all, there are a lot of idle things here, and it is inconvenient to send them far.

Often running back and forth between Yuhangjiang and the two places, Yao Zhankui knows in his heart that where he is close to the city, there is no need to worry too much, no gang of thieves is so bold as to dare to rob nearby, and the city defenders are not joking.

Therefore, one morning, everyone walked more steadily.

"Master, at noon, the sun is poisoning, and the family members are tired. I remember there was a forest in front of us, so let's take a break, eat something and then walk. The deputy housekeeper Pang Qing walked up to Yao Zhankui and suggested.

"Yes! Big brother, let's take a break, it's not bad to hurry. Jiang Nan also felt that what the housekeeper said made sense, and echoed on the side.

When Yao Zhankui heard this, he glanced back at everyone, each of them was full of red, sweat was dripping down his cheeks, and many of them took off their clothes hotly, and shouted loudly:

"Let's work hard, there's a forest in front of us, let's rest there before we go."

As soon as everyone heard that they were going to rest, they instantly came to their senses, roared, and pushed the wooden cart forward.

The forest and the outside are simply two worlds, densely shaded, cool and cool, sometimes blowing a breeze, in this scorching heat, it becomes a paradise, many of the family collapsed on the ground, moaning comfortably.

Jiang Nan sat under a tree, took the water belt handed by Xiao Cui, poured a few big mouthfuls, and began to look around, frowning slightly.

The trees here are thick and leafy, and it is difficult to find a handful of people hiding behind or on the trees. Moreover, the family members had been walking all morning, and they were all exhausted, and if the bandits came to attack at this time, they would definitely not have the strength to fight.

Thinking of this, Jiang Nan couldn't help but cheer up and listen attentively, except for the rustling of leaves blown by the wind, there seemed to be no abnormal sound, and he secretly felt that he was too suspicious.

I wanted to remind Yao Zhankui, but when I saw him leaning under the tree, there was a burst of snoring, presumably because he was in a hurry to walk in the morning, and he was a little tired. is still running around at such an old age, and Jiang Nan can't bear to disturb him to rest.

called Xiaocui to her side, told her to take care of everyone, and shouted loudly if there was something, Jiang Nan got up and went to the neighborhood to investigate.

With the rest area as the center, Jiang Nan carefully searched the surrounding places within a radius of one or two hundred meters, and found no one hiding.

Jiang Nan wanted to go farther away to have a look, but he was worried that he would not be able to rush back in time if something happened to Xiaocui, so he had no choice but to give up.

There is no way, I can only be vigilant at all times, there are no outstanding skills in those family members, and it is useless to do anything.

Thinking of this, Jiang Nan turned back.

After walking a few steps, a rustling sound behind him caught Jiang Nan's attention.

It is different from the sound of the wind blowing the leaves: it is not continuous, but dull and spaced, more like the sound of stepping on dead leaves.

I wanted to go over to check immediately, but I was worried that I would be frightened, but Jiang Nan didn't seem to notice, and slowly continued to walk forward, secretly concentrating, perceiving everything around him.

Strange to say, Jiang Nan felt as if he was covered with eyes, and everything around him could be seen.

Standing trees, grass and fallen leaves on the ground, scattered rocks, a few unknown wildflowers......

The rustle of leaves in the breeze, the buzzing of insects flapping their wings, the fluttering of birds as they fly......

According to the surprise in his heart, Jiang Nan was engrossed in "looking" at the direction of the visitor.

It was a diminutive young man, who slowly dodged behind the trunks of trees, carrying a bow in his hand and a quiver on his back, breathing long because of his caution.

"Seeing" that he had just ducked behind a tree, Jiang Nan turned around and performed a wind-chasing step, quickly flying towards him.

The young man cautiously poked his head out from behind the tree to observe, but saw that Jiang Nan was tapping the tip of the grass with a few vertical bodies, which were less than ten zhang away from him, so he hurriedly grabbed an arrow from behind, put it on the bow, and shot it when he opened the bow.

Three more were quickly taken out and shot, one of the four arrows was in front, and three were in the back of the finished glyph flying in the direction of Jiangnan.

The young man didn't pay attention to the target, turned around and fled.

Looking at its reaction, you can see that it has rich experience in actual combat, and there is no way to give full play to the advantages of bows and arrows in hand-to-hand combat, and keeping a safe distance is the king.

Jiang Nan had been paying attention to his movements, and when he saw him take out his bow and arrows, he secretly said that something was not good, so he began to move left and right, rushing forward in a serpentine shape.

Quickly dodged the first arrow, the back three angles were a little tricky, seeing that one of them could not be avoided, Jiang Nan flicked it casually, and the flying arrow changed direction, castration did not decrease, and it was nailed to the trunk next to it, and it buzzed after bringing off a piece of bark, and the force was really not light.

Although Jiangnan was hindered for a moment, the distance was not widened.

Several jumped to catch up and kick away, and the young man lost his center of gravity, rolled forward several meters away, and then hit a tree trunk and stopped.

Jiang Nan saw him get up and start the bow again, and kicked him in the wrist, and the bow lost control and fell to the ground.

Jiang Nan stepped forward again, ready to take advantage of the situation to restrain him, but saw the young man holding an arrow in his right hand and stabbing him.

Jiang Nan dwarf stepped forward, his left hand opened his arm, his right hand clenched into a fist, straight to his right shoulder joint, only to hear a crisp sound of "click", the young man's right arm hung down weakly, the arrow "clicked", fell into the grass.

Jiang Nan was unforgiving, a knee hit, slammed into the young man's abdomen, and then grabbed his left wrist, twisted it back, "click", and it was estimated that it was broken again.

When Jiang Nan escorted the young man to the place where everyone was resting, the snoring echoed one after another, and only Xiaocui and a few individual family members heard the sound and looked up.
