Dark clouds cover the sun, and jade scales fill the sky. The cold north wind with the smell of slaughter, like a blade, whistled past Zhu Youzhen's ears, pulling him back to reality from Gentle Township in an instant.

When Zhu Youzhen was taken aback, Lin Youkun rushed to the front of the carriage, jumped up, and was already sitting next to the stunned coachman, snatching the reins and strangling hard. The four good horses, which were galloping forward side by side, neighed in unison, and heard far away in the open field.

The speed of the car decreased sharply, Zhu Youzhen was caught off guard, staggered forward, couldn't hold his feet in the end, and fell down with the bamboo sword and chrysanthemum sword that came to help. Fortunately, there was a thick blanket in the carriage, otherwise he would have had a blue nose and swollen face.

At this time, the carriage had stopped, Zheng Tuohai, Li Zicheng and others also rushed to hear the sound, opened the back door of the carriage, and saw Zhu Youzhen and the five beauties rolling into a mess, but they couldn't help but laugh and said: "You Gongzi wants convenience?" ”

Lin Youkun got out of the car from the front and said hurriedly: "There are five people behind the convoy, and they have been riding horses and falling away from us, I'm afraid it will be ill-intentioned!" ”

Everyone hurriedly looked back, only to see the wind and snow, but where was there half a figure? Lin Youkun said: "It's invisible here, they're two miles behind us." ”

Zhu Youzhen said: "Then how did you know?" ”

Lin Youkun replied respectfully: "Back to Gongzi, the villain asked the guys to spread far away in front of and behind the convoy to prevent the gangsters from taking advantage of the snow to sneak attack." It was the news from the guy in charge of the guard just now. ”

Zheng Tuohai and Li Zicheng were taken aback when they heard this. They have been in business for many years, and they are naturally very cautious when they walk on the rivers and lakes. But like Lin Youkun, who was so vigilant, it was the first time they had seen it, and they couldn't help but be even more curious about the mysterious identity of this You Gongzi.

Li Zicheng said with a smile: "Steward Lin, this is an official road, and there are a lot of cars and horses coming and going, maybe it happens to be all the way with us, but I don't know." ”

"No, these five people and five riders have been following us since we went out of Dongbianmen, we are slow and they are slow, we are fast and they are fast, obviously with bad intentions."

"Isn't it just five people?" Zheng Tuo said with a deep anger, "The contemptible people have fifty or sixty guys, if the five of them are scared, then there is no need to mix them up in the future." ”

At this moment, another fast horse came galloping in front of him, and he suddenly stopped when he rushed to the convoy. The person who came was one of Lin Youkun's subordinates, he rolled the saddle and fell off the horse, first gave Zhu Youzhen a salute on one knee, and then got up and whispered a few words to Lin Youkun.

Lin Youkun frowned when he heard this, and said to everyone: "My guy just came back from exploring the road in front. Less than a mile ahead, a group of homeless people were rushing here. According to the villain's opinion, just in case, it is best to stop moving forward immediately, let the convoy form a circle, and protect the childe, the two bosses, and all the female dependents..."

"Steward Lin is making a bit of a fuss!" Zheng Tuohai couldn't help but feel disgusted when he saw that one of Zhu Youzhen's housekeepers actually gave orders to him, "What are a bunch of hungry people afraid of him?" You Gongzi, please relax and sit in the car with your daughter. If Steward Lin is not at ease, please hurry up and call all your men back and protect them around You Gongzi's carriage, wouldn't it be better! That's it, keep going! ”

Lin Youkun saw that Zheng Tuohai couldn't listen to the persuasion, so he couldn't help sneering and ignored him anymore. After Zheng Tuohai walked away, he whispered to Zhu Youzhen: "As expected, these two groups of people must be bandits, intending to attack us back and forth." If you really start to do it for a while, Your Highness will never show up, and if you have a humble position, you will definitely be able to ensure that Your Highness is foolproof. ”

Zhu Youzhen saw that Lin Youkun's face was solemn, and he knew that he would never make such a joke, so he suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly got into the car obediently, but he still couldn't help but secretly look through the window and couldn't help but look into the distance.

At this time, Lin Youkun really recalled all his subordinates to his side, including him, a total of thirteen people, all of whom were supported by Zhu Youzhen's car. Zheng Tuohai was about to say a few sarcastic words, when he suddenly saw a group of people coming out of the dark on the official road in front of him. When I looked closely, I saw that this group of people was about sixty or seventy people, all of them in rags, and they were gradually approaching the convoy despite the wind and snow.

Zheng Tuohai didn't dare to take it lightly, and hurriedly shouted for the parking team, so that all the guys could pick up the guys and gather together. He has been in business for many years, and his men are also experienced in traveling from south to north, and everyone has two strikes, all of them are armed with swords at this time, and they are ready to fight.

In a short time, the procession of displaced people was approaching. The leader of several people stepped forward and knelt down in the center of the official road, blocking the way of the convoy, and shouted loudly: "Masters from the south to the north, pity and pity us people who have fled the famine!" We are all good people of Gaomi Wangjiazhuang in Shandong, and we only went to Beijing to escape the famine because of the drought in our hometown for many years. Now there is no village in front of the village, there is no shop in the back, and the snow is so heavy, we are all starving to death and freezing to death! I hope you will do well and reward us hard-working people with some leftover dry food! ”

Zheng Tuohai glanced at his subordinates, and a guy understood, and immediately stepped forward with a horsewhip, and scolded a few kneeling people: "You mud-legged people, are you blind and impatient?" Even our Zheng Daguan's convoy dares to stop it? Hurry up and get out of the way, as far as you can! annoyed the officials of Zheng Daguan, and I don't see that you bastards will be sent to the government as Jiangyang thieves, and they will all cut off their heads one by one! ”

But they did not accept this, but still knelt in the same place and pleaded. The man was furious, and whipped his whip on the shoulder of one of them, and immediately drew a bloody purlin.

This stabbed the hornet's nest, and the dozens of hungry people behind them stopped doing it, and rushed forward noisily, shouting chaotically: "If you don't give food, forget it, why beat people?" "You can't hit someone!" "Hit this dog's leg!"

Zheng Tuohai's other buddies saw that the other party was outnumbered, and they were afraid that their companions would suffer, so they also rushed forward, picked up their horsewhips, and beat the crowd in front of them without a head or face.

Zhu Youzhen saw it really in the car behind him, and he couldn't bear it in his heart, and whispered to Lin Youkun, who was standing next to the car: "This Boss Zheng is really a little rich and unkind, so what's the matter with giving these victims a little dry food!" ”

Lin Youkun frowned tightly and said, "These people are not disaster victims. ”

Zhu Youzhen said: "How do you know that they are not disaster victims? Look at these people, on such a cold day, but they are dressed in such tatters, they are not disaster victims, how can they be so miserable? ”

A grim smile appeared at the corner of Lin Youkun's mouth, and he lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, please take a closer look." First, if it is a disaster victim, it should be a man, a woman, and a child, but how can this group of people be all men, not a single woman or child? Second, since you are a disaster victim, you should find a place to shelter from the cold in such a heavy snowstorm, why do you have to rush in this wilderness? Third, even the victims of the disaster should always wear some cotton clothes to protect them from the cold as it is winter. Even if someone doesn't have cotton clothes, they can't all of them be without them, right? This is obviously trying to cover up! ”

At this point, a tragic change is prominent. The man who had stepped forward first was whipping up with his horsewhip, and just raised his horsewhip high at a man kneeling on the ground, and scolded: "Don't let me go yet, see that I don't smoke to death..."

Before the word "you" could be spoken, the man kneeling on the ground suddenly raised his hand. A cold light flashed, and the man's head had already flown far away, and a rain of blood shot upwards from the headless cavity like a fountain, more than three feet high. After a few seconds, the headless corpse fell to the ground with a thud, instantly dyeing the originally white snow crimson.

Zheng Tuohai's men were stunned by this sudden scene. But soon they reacted and shouted: "There are thieves who have hijacked the car!" Immediately afterwards, they were divided into two teams, one team protected Zheng Tuohai and others, and the other team picked up their swords and killed this group of fake homeless, but they were also well-trained and brave.

And this group of "homeless" people also tore off their disguises, and they all drew their swords and fought with Zheng Tuohai's men.

In his previous life, Zhu Youzhen also watched a lot of disemboweling plasma tablets such as "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", "Resident Evil", or "Zombies Playing Across the Line". But those are naturally fake, just a little stimulation of tired nerves, a little more adrenaline secretion, and that's it. Now that he has seen the murder with his own eyes, it is still such a bloody beheading, he is so frightened that he opens his mouth and can't make a sound at all.

And Bao Yulian, the four sisters, and the famous prostitute Wu Mengmei and other women beside Zhu Youzhen were better than him, and after screaming a few times, they all rolled their eyes and fainted.

Lin Youkun saw that Zhu Youzhen turned pale with fright, and hurriedly called: "Childe, childe!" Are you alright? ”

Zhu Youzhen thought that it was strange that I was fine, and he relieved his breath for a while, and seeing that Zheng Tuohai's men were obviously fewer than those robbers, he anxiously urged: "Lin... Steward Lin, hurry up and help! ”

Lin Youkun stared at the back of the carriage and said slowly: "The gang in front is just ordinary bandits, although there are many people, they are a rabble, and Boss Zheng's men are enough to clean them up." The real threat to us is the five people in the back. ”

Zhu Youzhen looked at the back of the convoy in horror, only to see that at some point, five people and five horsemen had quietly appeared dozens of steps away. The five horses were all black, and the men on the horses were all dressed in black, and their faces were covered with green veils, revealing only a pair of sparkling eyes. Looking at this posture, it is somewhat similar to the ring spirit that suddenly came out of hell in "The Lord of the Rings".

Lin Youkun ordered his subordinates to tightly protect the carriage that Zhu Youzhen was riding, and then slowly walked a few steps towards the five riders, and shouted: "Since you have been following for so long, let's shoot!" ”

The five ringlings exchanged glances, and suddenly they all opened their bows and arrows. In just an instant, five sharp arrows made of stainless steel, with a terrifying sound of breaking the sky, shot towards Zhu Youzhen, who was peeking through the window!
