Chapter 51: The Convoy Is Attacked
Xiao Moli looked at Nie Yuanfeng and said: "These days, the road between the cities will go over the mountains, don't go on the avenue, and fight with all kinds of demon beasts on the mountains, I believe that after a month of fighting, it is still possible to break through to the Peiyuan Realm." ”
Nie Yuanfeng's face fell suddenly when he heard this, and he said, "I said boss, you want to kill me, and you have to fight demon beasts on the mountain for a month?"
Xiao Moli glanced at him and said, "Is there a problem? Didn't you live like this before?"
Nie Yuanfeng said: "Having said that, but the demon beasts in Qingyang Mountain are not strong, and the distribution of demon beasts, the more you reach the center of the dynasty, the higher the strength of the demon beasts, there should be a lot of demon beasts in the fixed foundation realm on this path, you are equivalent to a cultivator in the Dao foundation realm." ”
Xiao Moli touched his chin and said, "That's true, and as far as I know, it's not just the Dingji Realm Demon Beast, it is estimated that there will be Dan Demons near the Feather Sword Sect." ”
Looking at Nie Yuanfeng's gloomy face, Xiao Moli said: "Don't worry, although there are demon beasts in the Dingji Realm along the way, there are not many, and even if there are, I have a way to deal with them." ”
Nie Yuanfeng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said: "That's okay, okay, in order to join the sect, in order to become a master, I will fight!"
Xiao Moli nodded, looked at Su Xiyao and said, "Miss Su, we may spend most of our time on the mountain this time, don't you mind?"
Su Xiyao shook her head and said, "Just listen to Xiao Gongzi's arrangement, I can do anything." ”
Xiao Moli hummed, and then the three of them continued to hurry, but they no longer took the main road, but instead walked the mountain road.
........................
"Hehe, the third master, it seems that the target this time is quite fat. If this ticket is exhausted, it is estimated that we will not have to make a move for a month. ”
A thief-eyed guy was talking to a strong man with a scar on his eye.
The strong man with scarred eyes said with a smile: "It seems that it should be the convoy of a certain family in Fengyan City, and I don't know which one." ”
The thief-eyed little brother asked, "The third master, how do you know that this is from Fengyan City?"
Looking at his little brother and looking at himself in confusion and asking questions, the scar man suddenly felt that he had a sense of superiority, and thought, how can his observation power be comparable to that of your little brothers?
I saw the scarred man tilt his head and say, "Don't you understand? I told you to pay more attention to observe but don't listen, and in the end you have to rely on me." Come, you see, this mountain road is the road of Fengyan City in the direction of Iwashou City and Qingyang City. You see that this convoy is full of goods, obviously it is a convoy that has purchased and returned, and this convoy is equipped with more cultivators than ordinary convoys, plus everyone basically has a token on it, although it is not clear which token this is, but this kind of scale is definitely only available to a large family. Got it?"
As he spoke, the scarred man looked at the group of little brothers with a condescending expression. After hearing what the scar man said, the little brother with the thief eyebrows and rat-eyed quickly echoed: "What the three masters are talking about is that we are not observant enough, or the three masters are powerful, and this eyesight is only available to you, and we can't reach it." ”
The scar man nodded with a smile and said, "It's good to know, learn more in the future." ”
........................
"Young master, I heard that there are often bandits robbing in this mountain range, we won't run into them, right?"
A young man in a blue long suit said: "Don't talk too much, if something happens to the escort goods this time, my father will not agree to me going to the sect for assessment, can I go out and explore the world, just this time I will escort it." ”
When the little guy heard this, he said, "Knowing the young master, we will definitely return to the family safely." Young Master, what do you say this sect is like? After you join the sect, you must tell us when you have time to come back. ”
The young master said, "Don't worry, I'll tell you later." Over the years, my family has finally come up with someone like me who can join the sect, and I don't want to stay in the family to take care of the business. What's the point of always being trapped in this Fengyan City, it's good to go out and walk more. ”
The little guy said: "Hehe, with the talent of the young master, you can get ahead anywhere." At that time, my Lin family will also be able to follow the light, and those of us who are subordinates will be able to show off our power wherever we go. ”
The young master raised his head and said, "Of course, don't worry, when your young master and I create a famous hall, I will definitely not forget you." ”
"Stop!"
While the master and servant were talking, a loud shout interrupted their conversation. The young master looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a strong man with a scar on his eye leading a group of younger brothers to block the road. After a little inspection, there are no less than thirty people in this group.
At this time, the young master got off his horse and said to the scar man: "I don't know who you are, this is the convoy of the Lin family in Fengyan City, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to intercept it like this, right?"
When the scar man heard this, the Lin family and Fengyan City have two families, one is the Lin family and the other is the Ma family, but he didn't expect to meet a rich master this time.
The scar man asked, "Little brother, who are you?"
Before the young man could speak, he saw one of his guards and said, "This is the young master of our Lin family, if you know each other, quickly give way and let us pass." ”
When the scar man heard that this young man was the young master of the Lin family, his eyes immediately lit up, and he said with a smile: "It seems that the most valuable thing in this convoy is not these goods." ”
Immediately, the scarred man's face turned grim, and he shouted: "Give me all down and squat, we want this batch of goods, we only rob money, not kill people, but if the disobedient or resistant......"
With a "bang", I saw that the scar man directly took out an axe, slapped it on the ground at once, and said sharply: "Then don't blame me for not having long eyes on this axe!"
At the same time, more than 30 people behind the scar man released their momentum together, revealing a fierce expression.
The young man looked at these people and was thinking in his heart: "One late Peiyuan Realm, five mid-Peiyuan Realm, ten early Peiyuan Realm, the remaining twenty people are all above the sixth level of Qi refining. ”
Then he looked at the number of guards in his convoy, there were only twenty people, only one guard chief was in the late stage of the Peiyuan Realm, and there were three guards in the middle of the Peiyuan Realm, six guards in the early stage of the Peiyuan Realm, and the rest were like the Qi Refining Period. In this way, the strength of the other party is basically twice that of your own.
The young man said secretly: "This is terrible, even if I add me, I am just one more Peiyuan Realm early stage, there is no way to turn the tide of the battle." ”
Listening to the other party's intimidation, the chief of the guard suddenly felt in his heart, looked at the young master of his family, and whispered: "Young master, this batch of goods should not be guaranteed, looking at the other party's appearance, he still wants to arrest us as hostages, young master, we will fight for a while, you take the opportunity to break out of the encirclement, hurry back home, the goods are a trivial matter, you can't have a trace of damage." ”
The young man listened to the words of the chief of the guard and said, "What are these words, since I, as the young master of the Lin family, will never flee without a fight, abandon you, and fight with us." ”
"Young Master ......"
The captain of the guard was about to speak, but was directly interrupted by the young man, who said, "I, Lin Tianyi, am by no means greedy for life and afraid of death. ”
The scar man looked at the two of them muttering and didn't know what to say, so he drank directly: "Don't mutter in front of me, tell you, don't think about leaving alone today, all surround me." ”
When the little brothers behind the scar man heard this, they all shouted, "Yes!" Then more than thirty people quickly surrounded the Lin family's convoy, preventing anyone from escaping.
Seeing this great urgency, the chief of the guard saw that it was difficult to escape the fate of being arrested today, but at least he had to keep the young master from accidents, so he ordered: "Everyone obeys the order, give up the goods to break through, and escort the young master out!"
So all the guards of the Lin family's convoy pulled out their weapons and rushed towards the bandits.
........................
"I said boss, it's been a long time, and I haven't seen a single demon beast in this mountain forest at all, I said, shouldn't we speed up our pace?"
Xiao Moli and the three of them originally wanted to practice in the mountains and forests, but after walking down for half a day, they saw that it was almost noon, but they hadn't even seen a single hair of the demon beast.
Xiao Moli said: "I saw a small road just now, it should be the mountain road that Yanshou City and Qingyang City only see from Fengyan City, which is generally used to escort goods. ”
Su Xiyao said: "Aren't the escorted goods all on the main road?"
Xiao Moli explained: "Other cities do take the main road, after all, it is safe and fast, but the four cities of Qingyang City, Yanshou City, Fengyan City, and Liuyin City are different. These four cities are all surrounded by mountains, and if you take the main road, you will have to cover more than twice the distance. And the escort itself is to be safe and fast. Therefore, over time, the four cities saw that they would open up mountain roads to trade, and the road was short, and there were many times to clean up demon beasts, so there was no danger at all. ”
Nie Yuanfeng asked, "Then if you open a road in the mountains, aren't you afraid of encountering bandits?"
Xiao Moli said: "It is true that there is such a hidden danger, but since it is a bandit, it doesn't matter where it robs." Even on the main road, bandits will take advantage of the lack of people to rob, and if there are a lot of supplies transported, even if there are many people, the bandits will be strong. ”
Nie Yuanfeng asked, "The big road will also be, is it impossible?"
Xiao Moli said: "What is impossible, I have said it, the road is more than twice as long as the mountain road. Even if someone wanted to go to a nearby city to report the news, they had to walk a long way, and this time was enough time for the robbers to loot and then retreat. The purpose of walking the mountain road is to make a fast word, whether it is called support or normal travel speed is much more reasonable than the main road. ”
