Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Strange Man in Black
"Second brother, what's wrong?" Li Nangui looked at Li Xi, who had a solemn face, and asked suspiciously.
"Didn't you hear anything?" Li Xi's brow furrowed, listening to something.
"Rustle"
It seems to be the sound of someone speeding through the jungle.
"Second brother, what kind of voice is this?" Li Nangui also heard this strange voice and said with a frown.
"I don't know. Command the whole army to stop advancing. "Li Xi went and called a herald and asked him to pass on his orders.
"Not good, there are enemies. ”
Not long after the herald went down, an arrow burst out of the jungle with a cold light, and struck directly at Li Xi's face.
Li Xigo screamed, and quickly tilted his head to the side, so that he could avoid the arrow.
"What kind of person? What are you doing sneaky? Come out for Lao Tzu?" Li Nangui saw the arrow, hurriedly pulled out the long knife from his waist, his eyes widened, looked at the jungle, and roared angrily.
However, there was no reaction in the jungle, and the jungle became quieter and quieter under the moonlight.
"All the troops are on alert. Li Xi went to take Ma Shuo from a sleeve on his war horse, held it in his hand, and shouted loudly.
Li Nangui looked at the jungle and frowned. He took a bow and arrow from one of the guards next to him, wrapped a cotton cloth around the front of the arrow, and lit it with a fire breaker.
"Whoosh"
A fiery arrow flew deep into the jungle.
"Hehe, I have heard for a long time that the four sons of the Li family in Shuodong are all extraordinary, and when I saw them today, they really deserved their reputation. ”
A middle-aged man dressed in black stepped on a treetop and swept out of the jungle.
"Who?"
Li Xigo was extremely nervous, he was afraid of encountering an ambush here, so when he saw the man in black, he directly ordered his subordinates to release arrows.
"Hehe, carving insect skills. ”
The man was constantly moving in the air, perfectly avoiding all the arrows.
"Who are you, what are you doing here?" Li Nangui clenched the long knife and looked at the man in black coldly. The man in black gave him a palpitating feeling, and this feeling he had only felt in Li Duanjiang's body.
"Hehe, it doesn't matter who I am. The man stood lightly on the treetop of a cypress tree, looking at Li Xigo and Li Nangui below with a light face, looking quite a sense of being a master in the world.
"Then don't blame me for being unkind, soldiers, let go of the arrows. ”
Li Xigo looked at the man coldly, burst into a shout, and directly ordered his subordinates to release arrows.
Another rain of arrows flew towards the man.
The man in black stood on the top of the tree, looked at the flying arrows with an indifferent face, and waved a palm casually.
A huge spiritual power shield appeared in that person's hand, and the moment it appeared, nearly a thousand arrows were all absorbed by the spiritual power cover, and they could not be saved.
"Huh"
The man sneered, and waved his palm again, and the arrows that stopped in front of him shot straight backwards, nailed to the feet of these soldiers.
The soldiers hurriedly took control of the horses and took three or four steps back.
"No, this is a monk beyond the foundation period, not something we can compete with. Li Xi went and felt the spiritual power fluctuations surging on that person's body, this is not the power of the foundation building period, this is an existence that is even more powerful than the foundation building period.
"It's not a loss that Li Duanjiang's son has eyesight. ”
The man praised Li Xigo, with a satisfied look in his eyes.
"Hehe, who the hell are you, what are you doing here?" Li Nangui held the long knife in his right hand and looked at the man in black coldly.
"Who am I? you don't care who I am, I'm here today to wait for you. Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything to you. If you count it, we are still relatives. The man in black said with a smile.
"I, who is related to you? Blocking the road in the middle of the night, it's not a robbery, is it still a gift?" Li Nangui scolded loudly.
"Third brother, don't be reckless. Li Xigo hurriedly stopped Li Nangui.
After all, it seems that the man in black has no signs of making a move against them, and if he makes a move because of Li Nangui's provocation, it will be too much to lose.
"Dare to ask the seniors what are waiting for us here?" Li Xi went to look at the man in black on the treetops, and bowed respectfully.
"Hehe, that's good. It seems that Li Duanjiang taught well. The man in black held his beard and said with a smile on his face.
"It's nothing big for me to wait for you here today, I just want to meet you, and by the way, I will ask you to bring a letter to Li Duanjiang. ”
The man in black took out a letter from his arms and threw it directly at Li Xi.
"Meet us, do you know us?" Li Xi went to take the envelope and looked at the man in black with a puzzled expression.
In Li Xi's impression, he had never seen this man in black, could this be a fraud? However, if he really wanted to do it, with his strength, he could easily destroy Li Xigo and the others.
But why is this? He asked Li Xi to carry a letter to Li Duanjiang, so why didn't he deliver it himself? Instead, he asked Li Xi to deliver it?
I don't understand, I don't understand. Li Xigo looked at the man in black with a blank expression.
"Of course I know you, but as for how you know, then I don't care about you, in short, in a word. You must hand over this letter to Li Duanjiang. The man in black pointed to the envelope in Li Xi's hand and said coldly. There was a threat in the tone.
"Haha, the matter is done, the old man is gone. When the man had finished arranging things out, he put his hands behind his back and left laughing.
"Sure enough, he is a strong man in the Jindan period, and he travels in the sky. It seems that this person has no ill will towards us, after all, his own side is provocative. Li Xi let out a sigh of relief, and his hanging heart finally let go.
"Second brother, do you think there is something wrong with this person? Why did he let us send the letter?" Li Nangui looked at Li Xi with a confused expression.
"Second brother, why don't we open it and take a look, what is written in this letter?" Li Nangui put his face on the envelope in Li Xi's hand and said curiously.
"Fuck off, there's no one on the right track. That person just now was a strong man in the Jindan period, so you weren't afraid of being heard by him? Could it be that you really want to die?"
Li Xi said angrily.
"Well, then I'll shut up. When Li Nangui heard this, he hurriedly closed his mouth and looked around.
"The whole army marches. ”
After making sure that there was no danger, Li Xigo waved his hand and ordered the whole army to go in the direction from which he came.
When the whole team left, the man in black appeared in place.
"Miss, they're gone, don't you really come out to take a look?" the man in black whispered to the other side of the jungle.
As soon as the man in black finished speaking, he saw a woman in white dressed in Shengxue, ice muscle condensation, beautiful as a fairy, with a white gauze hat swept out of the jungle and stopped next to the man in black.
"Alas, Miss, why do you say you are doing this?" said the man in black with a bitter face.
"Fourth uncle, you don't have to say that. I chose all of this myself, and I believe in him, and one day, he will take me back. I believe in him. The woman looked blankly at the direction in which Li Xigo and Li Nangui left, and her eyes showed tenderness.
"Miss, why don't you go and see him directly, why are you here, why do you let those two boys deliver the letter, why don't you go yourself, or let the old slave go?"
The man in black couldn't figure out the twists and turns, and asked suspiciously.
"You don't understand, you don't understand. The woman looked at the direction in which Li Xigo and Li Nangui left, and said in frustration.
"Miss, as far as I know. This Li Donglai, Li Xigo and Li Nangui are not Li Duanjiang's biological sons, only his youngest son is his biological son. The man in black looked at the depressed woman and muttered.
"Yes, these children are not Li Duanjiang's biological sons. But ah, Li Duanjiang has always treated these children as his own sons. It's been so long, and it's been considered my own son. The woman muttered.
"Didn't you notice that these two children have the imprint of Li Duanjiang on them?" the woman said softly.
"Well, this, it seems to be true. The man in black replied.
"Miss, they're far away, and we should go too. ”
The man in black looked at the woman standing in place and reminded him.
"Let's go. ”
The woman turned around and walked away.
............
"Pass my orders and speed up. Li Xi went to sit on his horse and looked up at the sky.
At the moment of the order, the entire army moved in an instant, constantly advancing towards the front.
"General, the second and third sons are back. ”
A herald ran into the military tent and told Li Duanjiang the news.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back. ”
Li Duanjiang was standing on the edge of a map, and he was not shocked when he heard the news.
"Haha, father, the child is back. ”
A loud voice rang out outside the tent.
I saw Li Xi go and Li Nangui and walk in from outside.
"How are you doing outside these days? Come, tell my father about the results. ”
Li Duanjiang looked at Li Xigo and Li Nangui, sat on the main seat, and asked in a deep voice.
"Haha, let's let the second brother say it. I'm stupid. Li Nangui laughed.
"Father, our department has been away for more than half a month, and the farthest point has been to the outskirts of Beiqu Town. The main purpose of our action is to confuse the barbarians and make them unclear about the intentions of our army. Since the dispatch of troops, our troops have killed more than 7,000 barbarian soldiers, burned nearly 80,000 stones of grain and grass, and destroyed 300 fortresses. ”
Li Xi went to stand below, arched his hands, and said in a deep voice.
"Haha, yes, yes. I'm good. Li Duanjiang laughed.
"By the way, something strange happened when we came back. Li Xigo suddenly remembered the strange man in black.
"What's weird?"
Li Duanjiang held his beard and looked at Li Xi with a curious expression.
"Father, that's right. ”
So, Li Xi went to tell the whole incident of meeting the man in black.
"Huh?!"
Li Duanjiang held his beard, frowned, listened to Li Xigo's words, and fell into deep thought.
"Can you see the man's appearance clearly?" asked Li Duanjiang in a deep voice.
"Clearly, the man in black looked about sixty years old. He has a young face, blue pupils of his eyes, a straight nose, and a mole on his chin. ”
