【298】Demon Wind Crossing

Jindu is about a seven-day journey from Shendu, about four days on horseback, and about two days from Camel Mountain.

"You continue to play your role as the owner of Ye Zhuang here, waiting for us to come back." Zhang Sen instructed Jin Chengwu before leaving.

Then they left the Tea Villa and went straight down the mountain to their lodgings, because it was already night, and after a little discussion, they decided to set off again tomorrow.

"By the way, the fox demon of Qingqiu Pavilion, just leave it alone?" When Jasper Heart was about to return to her room, she suddenly remembered the two fox demons and asked.

Zhang Sen smiled: "Let's look back, anyway, they have integrated into human society, and there is no harm." ”

In fact, the fox demons in Qingqiu Pavilion are not harmless, but even if they don't do what they do, someone will do it, so it's nothing for them to do.

Besides, Zhang Sen doesn't really care about the human survival situation in this world, he just thinks it's interesting and cares, and now he ...... Go to bed!

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, everyone set off in a carriage, and Wan Shusheng and Xingdao naturally rode on separate horses to guard the carriage on both sides.

Zhang Sen drove the carriage swaying forward, occasionally encountering walking on the road, but most of the pedestrians were ragged, and they would take the initiative to avoid them when they saw them, and even many people hugged their burdens, as if they were afraid that they would see money.

Of course, not everyone was like that, and they also met people like scholars, who avoided them when they saw them, and bowed their hands.

The road was unimpeded, and at sunset, everyone came to Majia Town.

Majia Town is not big, there are only three streets, Zhang Sen and others stayed at the inn, rested for the night and continued to set off the next day.

"It's so calm, I thought I could meet all kinds of demons and monsters in the past two days, who knew that there would be no thrills and dangers all the way, it was too boring." Zhang Sen drove the carriage, looked up at the sky, and finally couldn't help but complain.

The torture knife rode a horse and said: "How can you always encounter demons and monsters, to be honest, for so many years, I have followed you to find out that this world is different from what I imagined, and I have never encountered any ghosts in the past. ”

"Compared to ghosts, people are more dangerous." Wan Shusheng spoke.

At this moment, a group of people came out of the grass in front of them, their clothes were stained with blood, and they were holding various weapons in their hands, which at a glance knew that they lacked maintenance and were already in tatters, but they were still good for killing.

"Stop, stop, stop." A man stared at Zhang Sen and the others and shouted.

These people are like wolves, staring at Zhang Sen and the others, and a few people with crossbows are aiming at the torture knife on horseback, after all, compared to Zhang Sen and Wan Shusheng, the torture knife looks like a practitioner.

"Sure enough, it's still more dangerous for people." The torture knife laughed.

Zhang Sen opened his mouth and said, "Everyone, why do you stop us?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get off the horse, we only want money, and if we don't want to die, we will cooperate obediently." The man spoke.

Zhang Sen looked at Wan Shusheng and said, "He wants us to get off the horse and get off the car, do we want to listen to him?" ”

"This kind of small role, leave it to me, I can't deal with ghosts, this kind of minions, I'll have one in hand." The torture knife spoke first at this time.

Wan Shusheng nodded and said, "Then let the torture knife come." ”

"Shoot!" When the leader heard the words of the torture knife, he immediately shouted.

The two crossbows immediately shot arrows, but in a blink of an eye, they were resisted by the torture knife with a sword, and then the torture knife instantly flew down from the horse, and the leader fell to the ground in a flash of sword light, and then he quickly struck, and the sword light continued to envelop these robbers, and in a blink of an eye, all the robbers fell to the ground horizontally, all of them twitched their bodies like salted fish, and they were not far from death.

The swordsmanship of the One Sword Gate has always been to kill with one sword, but now the movement of the torture knife is really too fast, so that even if these people are fatally injured, they can still hold on for a while before dying, but this is even more painful for these people.

After the torture knife was sheathed, a cold wind blew, and the robbers were instantly killed.

"Let's go." The torture knife felt a little wrong, and he got on the horse and spoke.

Zhang Sen looked at Wan Shusheng, Wan Shusheng nodded slightly, and then bypassed the corpses of these robbers and continued to move forward, as for the corpses, there would naturally be various beasts to help deal with them.

"The weather was fine in the morning, but in the blink of an eye, the weather was gloomy again." Jasper Xin opened the curtain slightly, looked at the white sky outside, and couldn't help frowning.

Zhang Sen smiled and said, "It's probably because God is in a bad mood." ”

"There is no God, if there is really God, there will be so many injustices in the world." The torture knife didn't feel quite right, and then he spoke.

It rained, very suddenly, a drop of rain fell from the sky, swirling and dripping on Zhang Sen's nose, the moment Zhang Sen looked up, the raindrop fell down his nose to his mouth, was blown away by his babe, and finally fell on the horse's tail.

But it was just a drop of rain, and then the rain fell quickly.

"There's a temple over there, let's go!" The torture knife looked at it for a moment and spoke.

The horses also galloped, and soon arrived at the small ruined temple on the mountainside of the hill beside the road, and Zhang Sen and the others quickly entered the ruined temple.

This broken temple is some years, and there are still some traces of bonfires on the ground, obviously there have been people who have stopped here before, after Zhang Sen and the five people entered the broken temple, the torture knife set up a bonfire neatly.

"This rain is really scary." He looked at the crackling rain outside and spoke.

Zhang Sen glanced at the small potholes that were hit by the raindrops, and said: "We don't look like the hero in a ghost story now, we have to hide in the broken temple after a heavy rain, shouldn't the demons and monsters appear next?" ”

"You're thinking too much, where are there so many demons and monsters." The torture knife said helplessly.

In fact, he has encountered many times in a situation like this, and then he suddenly encountered heavy rain and then hid in a broken temple or a broken house, and there is nothing unusual at all.

"What if." Zhang Sen said without giving up.

The torture knife sighed, "Then I can only do it." ”

"Hurry up, hurry up." At this time, a man's voice came from outside the temple, and then a group of people quickly broke into the broken temple.

This group of people is really a bit mixed, there are scholars, there are people in the rivers and lakes, there are beggars, they came in and saw Zhang Sen and the others were stunned, and then the man dressed as a high-roller in the rivers and lakes said: "It's raining outside here, can we come in?" ”

"No problem, we're just coming in to hide from the rain." Zhang Sen nodded.

Those people came in one after another, but they didn't get close to Zhang Sen and the others, but sat on the side, the old and the young gathered together, and the child stared at Zhang Sen and the others, as if they wanted to roast the fire.

"Be careful, don't go near those five people, they're not easy." The high-roller sat next to the scholar, and saw that the scholar looked at the jade god fox from time to time, and whispered to the scholar.

The scholar nodded and said, "Xiaosheng understands." ”

"Where are you from and where are you going?" These people didn't want to talk to Zhang Sen, but Zhang Sen didn't care, but took the initiative to talk to them.

The Jianghu high-roller said: "We are from Majia Town in front, and we originally wanted to go to Jindu, but who knew that when we arrived at this demon wind crossing, we encountered heavy rain. ”

"This place is called Demon Wind Crossing?" Zhang Sen asked curiously.

Jianghu Hawker nodded and said: "Yes, because the front is the Jinshang River, so there is always a strange wind in this place, and gradually some people say that there are monsters blowing the wind, so it is called Demon Wind Crossing,"

"Youkai blowing the wind? Are there really youkai? Zhang Sen asked.

Jianghu high-roller smiled: "How can there be any monsters, it's just that everyone is false, my old horse has traveled south and north, and the demons and monsters have never been seen, but there are many people who are more vicious than the demons and monsters." ”

"Oh, in Xia Zhang Sen, I don't know what Your Excellency is called?" Zhang Sen listened and spoke.

The high-roller of the rivers and lakes arched his hand and said: "Contemptible people and horses, the word Huateng, my father originally wanted my son to succeed his father as a businessman, but I don't like to deal with copper smell, so I became a runner instead." ”

"Disrespectful and disrespectful, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, do you regret it now? Maybe if you become a businessman, you will have a better development. Zhang Sen arched his hand.

Ma Yun shook his head and said: "I can't talk about regrets or regrets now, besides, I don't like money, I've never touched money, the most important thing in walking the rivers and lakes is righteousness, you can eat anywhere you go, and you don't need money at all." ”

"Takami, it's really Takami." Zhang Sen said.

Ma Yun waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not a high opinion, it's just a little experience in dealing with people, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning." ”

"You're all together?" Zhang Sen looked at the others and asked.

Ma Yun nodded and said: "He is my nephew Marven, who has already passed the Xiucai exam, and will definitely be a big official in the future, and their family is Marven's servants." ”

"Xiaosheng, Xiaosheng......" The scholar wanted to say something, but was pulled by Ma Yun, and finally sat down stupidly and stopped talking.

At this time, two women came in slowly, and after the two came in, they put away their umbrellas, and they seemed to be startled when they saw so many people, and then retreated to the edge of the door, and one of the larger women in white said, "Everyone, I don't know if the concubine can come in to avoid the rain?" ”

"Of course there's no problem, this ruined temple is a borderless place, anyone can come." Zhang Sen nodded immediately.

After the two women thanked them, they came in and sat on the other side, so that the layout in the small broken temple became very interesting.

In the middle of the broken temple is the tattered statue of the god, Zhang Sen and others gathered under the statue on the left hand side, and on the right hand side is Ma Yun and his party, because the right hand side of the entrance is leaking rain, so the two women are below Zhang Sen and others, that is, the left hand side of the entrance to rest.

Probably because of the addition of these two women, the broken temple was quiet for a while, and everyone was waiting for the rain to stop.

However, this rain is also quite individual, everyone is looking forward to it to stop quickly, but it is falling more and more, and in the end it is like a waterfall, and people who don't know think that Gonggong has knocked down Buzhou Mountain again.

"I'm afraid the rain won't stop for a while." Ma Yun said with a frown.

Diagonally opposite them, the two women leaned against each other, and then the woman in green spoke, "Sister, I'm so cold." ”

"You can come and make a fire together, it's warm." Zhang Sen said with a smile.

On the other side, the child also spoke: "Grandma, I'm so cold. ”

"Come on, let's hold it tight, it's not cold." The old man hugged his grandson and spoke.
