The distance from the Holy Soul Village to Notting City is not far, if you walk, it only takes half a day.

However, Yang Ming sat in a carriage, and this time would be shortened a lot.

Theoretically, it would take only two hours to reach Notting City at the speed of a horse-drawn carriage.

Of course, there are no absolutes in everything, and the reason why theory is theory is because there are always many changes in reality.

When he looked at the road where the carriage was advancing, there was actually a group of more than 40 bandits blocking the road and robbing it, the village elder Jack chuckled in his heart, and secretly said bad in his heart.

The bandits wore green hoods and red scarves, covering their faces tightly, revealing only a pair of thief eyebrows and mouse eyes, each wearing half-body armor, holding a mountain sword, and flashing knife light.

The bandits set up antler thorns on the road, and the sharp horns could easily pierce the belly of the colt, so that Old Jack did not dare to rush through the level with brute force.

Old Jack did not hesitate, quickly turned the horse's head, and wanted to leave.

however

The bandits have seen Old Jack from afar, where will they let this fat sheep go?

"Drive! Drive! ...... driving"

There was a sound of horses' hooves, and more than forty bandits arrived on horses.

The horses under the bandit seat are not horses used to pull carts, but good horses that are good at galloping.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the bandits had already taken over.

In desperation, Old Jack grabbed the reins in his hand, pulled abruptly, and stopped the carriage.

More than forty bandits approached and surrounded the carriage.

The leader of the bandits, the blade pointed obliquely at Old Jack, and said arrogantly:

"I planted this tree, I drove this road, if you want to cross this road, you must first buy road money."

Old Jack was the first time he had encountered a bandit.

It stands to reason that although Notting City is very close to the border of the Heaven Dou Empire, Notting City is not a big city, there is no oil and water to fish, and there should be no bandits.

But seeing that these bandits' arms were thicker than his thighs, Old Jack suppressed the doubts in his heart, for fear that they would be unfavorable to Yang Ming and Tang San, and hurriedly took out a money bag from his pocket, which contained Yang Ming's tuition and food expenses, as well as some change for buying daily necessities.

"Heroes, is this money enough?"

"Count you old man as acquaintances."

The bandit leader took the money bag, put it in his palm and weighed it, and nodded with satisfaction.

Just when Old Jack thought that the bandit leader was going to let him go, the other party spoke again:

"Show me who's in your car."

Old Jack's face tightened, his hands waved nervously again and again, with a bitter face, and said:

"Hero, there's no one in the carriage."

"Is there really no one?"

"Really, really!"

Old Jack chick nodded like a peck of rice, for fear that there would be a case.

The bandit leader suddenly laughed evilly, pushed Old Jack away violently, and lifted the curtain, revealing Yang Ming and Tang San sitting opposite each other in the carriage.

"Stinky old man, you are not honest, aren't there two big living people in this carriage? How dare you tell me that no one? Do you think I'm blind, or do I think I'm stupid, huh? ”

The bandit leader tore Old the car, kicked him to the ground, stepped on Old Jack's chest with his big foot, stared at his old face condescendingly, patted him on the cheek with a knife, and said with a cruel smile:

"Stinky old man, I've changed my mind. The two children in your carriage are good-looking, and if they are sold to those noble lords with special habits, they will not be able to make a windfall. So, you can go, but these two children must stay. ”

The moment the knife slapped his face, feeling the cold feeling of the mountain opening knife, Old Jack's face was shocked, for fear that the outlaw in front of him would cut it down.

But

When he heard that the bandit leader was going to sell Yang Ming, and he was going to sell it to those nobles with special fetishes, Old Jack didn't know where the strength came from, so he suddenly hugged the leg of the bandit leader, and said in a low voice:

"Hero, don't you want money, I still have it at home, I will give you as much as you want! Even if you ask for money for my coffin, you can take it, as long as you let these two children go, you can do whatever you want me to do, even if it is to make you a cow or a horse. ”

The bandit leader tried to pull his legs out of Old Jack's hands several times, but Old Jack's arms were like the roots of an old tree, they were very strong and tightly wrapped, and the bandit leader couldn't get out of it no matter how hard he tried.

"Okay, you stinky old man actually dare to talk to me about the conditions, you don't even know how to write dead words!"

The bandit leader snorted coldly and sneered:

"Didn't you say you could do whatever you wanted? Come, as soon as you get down on your knees, crawl under my crotch, and call me three times grandpa, and maybe I'll be comfortable, I'll change my mind and let you and the two children in the carriage go. ”

The man has gold under his knees!

The words of the bandit leader are simply trampling on Old Jack's dignity as a man!

As long as it is a normal man, he will feel angry!

Old Jack was so angry that his face turned red.

can look at the two children in the carriage, especially Yang Ming, although he is adopted, he has always regarded it as his own grandson.

Yang Ming's talent is so good, the future is bright, there is a vast space to be promising, it shouldn't be, and it can't fall here!

I've lived long enough, even if I don't want this old face, as long as Yang Ming has a future and can get ahead, that's it.

Thinking like this, Old Jack pursed his lips and gritted his teeth, his masseter muscles protruding, a trace of blood spilling out of the corners of his mouth, and his knees were about to kneel to the ground.

At this moment, Yang Ming's roar came:

"Wait!"

Seeing Yang Ming jump out of the carriage with a gun, Old Jack was anxious, his eyes were red, and he said in a focused voice:

"You monkey, don't you see how dangerous it is here, why do you have to come down!"

Although the tone was quite harsh, the words were full of concern for Yang Ming.

"Grandpa." Yang Ming helped Old Jack up, raised his eyebrows coldly at the bandits around him, his voice became colder, and said: "If you want to sacrifice your dignity in exchange for my personal life, then what's the point of my life!" ”

"Yang Ming is right!"

Tang San then also jumped out of the carriage and fought side by side with Yang Ming.

"You ......"

Looking at the two and a half children who protected him behind him, tears blurred Old Jack's cloudy eyes, and his voice choked several times.

It is not only the pride of the children, but also the regret of their incompetence.

"Huh."

Seeing that Yang Ming's two grandfathers and grandsons were very emotional, the bandit leader sneered, pointed at Yang Ming obliquely, and under the red scarf, he stretched out his tongue and licked his chapped lips because of thirst, and said with a cruel smile:

"I don't know the so-called little ghost, what do you think you can do with us with the toy gun in your hand?"

"Are you worthy?"
