Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Nets of Heaven and Earth
The next day, when it was dawn, the rustling of hurders could be heard among the trees.
Jia Qian and Dongfang Shiming slept very badly in that kind of noisy situation, and woke up early in the morning, their physical strength was damaged, and their foot strength was weakened, so they could only hope to hurry as soon as possible and arrive in Fenglu County faster.
Last night's series of accidents caused some deviations in their route, but fortunately, Jia Qian didn't run too far, so it wasn't a big problem.
By looking at the map, you can basically deduce the current location of the two. There is not much distance from Fenglu County, and if you go over the mountain road, you can reach it tomorrow.
Although this is more distant than the main road, it is also more hidden, after all, both of them have now lost their basic ability to meet the enemy, and if they are unfortunate enough to meet again, it will be difficult to escape.
The two of them helped over the mountains and mountains, and found some wild vegetables to barely satisfy their hunger. Fenglu County was already close at hand, and now they had no reason to give up.
"Jia Qian," Dongfang Shiming wanted to distract the two of them for a while, so he slowly spoke, "Tell me about your hometown, Fenglu County." ”
Jia Qian was somewhat stunned for a moment, and when he heard that Dongfang Shiming was interested in his hometown, he was naturally willing to tell him about it.
"However, I haven't been back for a long time. Jia Qian was a little ashamed, "I'll tell you based on the situation at that time." ”
Dongfang Shiming nodded in agreement, and Jia Qian picked the important one to tell him: "My hometown Fenglu County can be regarded as a relatively powerful area. ”
"Its scale is larger than Jiangliang City, and it is a famous city in the mountains. Farming and merchants, as well as manual production, were relatively developed. ”
A concern in Dongfang Shiming's heart gradually faded after hearing Jia Qian say this.
If Fenglu County's strength is weak, the all-encompassing Nine Tho Shadow may even directly take the means of destroying the city in order to eradicate the threat of eliminating evil scholars. However, since Fenglu County has such a scale, the Nine Thorough Shadows, who are still in the shadows, should not do this rashly.
Jia Qian continued to talk about his hometown with relish, and the more he talked, the more energetic he became.
From no wanderer to homesickness, coupled with disasters along the way, it will cause people to miss their stable home. As he spoke, he seemed to have forgotten even the pain and fatigue in his legs, and his leg strength had obviously increased a lot.
Dongfang Shiming was secretly relieved in his heart, and at the same time stepped up to keep up with his speed.
However, just behind them, the four leaders of the Nine Thorough Shadow Shadows in the vicinity quietly all went out.
The surrounding mountains, from the top of the mountain to the valley, are shuttled with the figure of a black turban. They have unleashed a huge net, vowing to annihilate the evil scholars who have long threatened them here.
It was close to noon. Dongfang Shiming secretly noticed the black eagle hovering in the sky from time to time, and felt something strange in his heart. For some reason, he could always feel a murderous aura that seemed to be nothing, as if something was following behind him, getting closer and closer, but he couldn't get rid of it.
The two of them bypassed a forest and climbed to a commanding height of relatively favorable terrain.
At this time, Dongfang Shiming patted Jia Qian's shoulder and signaled him not to go any further, while he turned his head and said to the air with cold eyebrows: "You should come, but you can't hide." ”
Jia Qian was stunned. He hurriedly turned around, only to find that a figure with a black turban had appeared on the mountain he had just passed by, searching, and the situation was terrifying. And that kind of number is definitely not just Leng Wushuang's subordinates last night.
Although no one immediately responded to Dongfang Shiming's words, out of the corner of his eye, he also caught a glimpse of the black eagle above his head circling and flying away, flying in the direction of the valley opposite.
He just wanted this brute to ventilate and report the news, but he wanted to see how long the person behind the scenes could calm down.
As expected, soon, the black-turbaned men who were walking through the mountains seemed to have received unified instructions, and immediately gathered and ran down the mountain. Due to the obstruction of their line of sight, the two of them couldn't see how many troops there were under the mountain, but it didn't matter, after all, it shouldn't be them who were really the enemy of them.
Suddenly, the two of them felt the sound of the wind in the four fields, and the forest leaves began to rumble.
The wind dart fell to the ground, and the iron ropes roared in unison. Familiar people have not arrived first, this is their old friend, Leng Wushuang came.
But at the same time, there was a lot of pace on all sides.
Dongfang Shiming and Jia Qian were close to their backs, facing the besiegers who came from four angles, Dongfang Shiming understood that this should correspond to the four branches of Nine, Che, Xiao, and Ying, and it was very likely that they would be the leaders of the four divisions.
The black hawk fluttered and landed abruptly on the arm of one of the comers.
The man who came with a black beard and undisguised cruelty looked like he was not easy to match. Two other strange visitors also appeared, one was a scantily clad woman, and the other was a thin man with sharp beak and monkey cheeks.
"I found that," Jia Qian suddenly said, "it's still more pleasing to the eye." That woman is okay, but it's too profligate and doesn't fit the way of a woman. ”
Dongfang Shiming smiled faintly: "No, no, no, the way of the saint's woman can only represent the aesthetics of the saint." Now that the books of the sages have been lost, try to open your mind a little more. ”
"Well......" Jia Qian listened to Dongfang Shiming's reasoning, not to mention that death is coming, and there is no need to follow the sage's truth until death.
He thought about it, and whispered to Dongfang Shiming: "Then I still prefer to die in the hands of that woman." ”
Dongfang Shiming felt funny about him in his heart, but he didn't say anything more. What's more, those four people are already approaching, and they don't have a chance to continue gossiping.
The four of them walked to a certain distance and stood still.
There was no extra confrontation, Leng Wushuang slowly spoke first: "Two, long time no see." ”
