A month later, on a rugged mountain road.

A convoy was trudging through the muddy puddles after the rain, the wheels were struggling to cut through the mud, and the splashed sewage hit the flowers and plants on the side of the road, and the whole road was suddenly covered with mud.

The convoy was very long, almost forty wagons, and on either side of the convoy were hundreds of raincoat men with weapons and horses.

On both sides of the leading carriage, there were dozens of heavily armed soldiers guarding them, and at a glance, they knew that there was a certain big man inside.

"King fry, spring! Hahaha, Your Highness, you lost again! ”

Inside the carriage, a silver bell-like laughter suddenly came out, attracting the sideways glances of the samurai on both sides of the carriage.

“......”

At this moment, Jiang Chuanyue was holding the card in his hand that had never been played, and his face was as black as ink.

Estes's order was issued a month ago, and it is said that Estes left the southwest region on the same day, and in order to keep his territory from becoming a mess, Jiang Chuanyue had to quickly pack up his things and leave the imperial capital.

Along the way, feeling that it was too boring to rush in the carriage, Jiang Chuanyue made up a card and played with a certain indescribable Lilian maid and Ma Yinchan, a trainee maid who gradually appeared tsundere attributes.

As a result, I don't know if the two maids were too good or Jiang Chuanyue was possessed by the black god, and as a result, they were crushed after ten games and ten games.

Alas, the heart is so tired. Jiang Chuanyue silently let go of the cards in her hand without saying a word, opened the curtain of the carriage and prepared to walk away silently.

"Hey, isn't Your Highness playing? Remember you owe me forty-six demands. ”

"It's not like my brother can't afford to lose, so let's run away......"

Jiang Chuanyue, who was just about to get out of the carriage, stiffened, her face darkened, and her steps out were a little faster.

I wanted to tease the two maids, so I made a request for gambling, but I didn't expect to be teased instead of the two maids......

"Won't you take a break in the carriage?"

When Jiang Chuanyue left the carriage and rode on a horse, Ghost Miao, who was wrapped in a raincoat beside him, said.

"No, it's stuffy inside the carriage, anyway, it's good to come out after the rain and breathe in the fresh air."

Jiang Chuanyue stretched his waist and took a deep breath, the refreshing breath entered his lungs, and he only felt that the whole person was comfortable.

"Also, the air outside is much more pleasant than the rotten atmosphere of the imperial capital."

"You mean a lot in that sentence......

As the two of them talked leisurely, they didn't notice the slightly shaking grass on the far side of the road.

When the whole convoy had completely left, a man suddenly came out of the bushes, and the man looked at the traces in the distance of the convoy for a while, and then suddenly turned around and jumped into the dense forest.

The mysterious man ran fast in the dense forest, as if walking on the ground, and the trees on both sides kept retreating, and he was really as fast as a monkey.

After reaching the top of the mountain not far away, the mysterious man took out a signal flare from his arms and released it at the sky.

With a thud, a spark rose into the air and exploded in the sky.

At that moment, Jiang Chuanyue, who was already far away from this place, suddenly turned her head to look at the sky and saw the fleeting light.

"Interesting...... Jiang Chuan's horns turned up slightly, revealing a smile of unknown meaning.

At the same time, in a dense forest three miles in front of Jiang Chuanyue's convoy, hundreds of big men were secretly pounced in the grass, ambushed in the dense forest.

Although these people were wearing tattered clothes, shoes and socks, there was not the slightest look on their faces, and it was evident from the fine blades in their hands and the neatness and dirt on their bodies that this was perhaps not an ordinary bandit army.

"How? Is the signal coming? ”

Behind a bush, a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face who looked like a leader whispered to a subordinate next to him.

"I don't know, there's no news yet."

"Commander Duncan, do you need to be so nervous? Left and right are just a little kid who hasn't even grown his hair yet. ”

At this time, a thin man with a sharp beak and a monkey cheek, wearing a precious leather armor, walked over with a few guards who followed him, glanced at the middle-aged man with a Chinese character face contemptuously, and said in a strange manner.

"Be careful."

In the face of the thin man's contempt, the middle-aged man with a national character face lowered his eyes, faintly revealing a trace of murderous intent.

"Cut, cowardice is cowardice, wait a minute, or you won't have to go, anyway, just me and my subordinates can complete the task of adults....."

As soon as the words fell, a thin figure jumped over in the dense forest like an agile ape, knelt down on one knee in front of the two of them, and said:

"My lord, the signal has been received, and the prey is about to enter the cage."

"Very good, after waiting for so long, I can finally dispatch, Commander Duncan, just leave it to me, I don't need you to make a move, anyway, your guts...... It's like a turtle! Hahahaha......."

Listening to the distant laughter, Duncan just lowered his head and did not speak, but the iron fist in his hand was clenched tightly, his nails were inserted into the flesh, and the blood was dripping without realizing it.

......

Jiang Chuanyue didn't notice the open and secret battle in a certain place, and the convoy soon entered the dense forest.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Suddenly, the shouts of killing resounded in the sky, and out of the invisible grass ran out one after another with hideous faces holding long knives.

The whole convoy was startled, and the horses neighed restlessly.

The big men did not attack immediately, but surrounded the entire convoy.

"Robbery, get your chief to come out and speak!"

A road suddenly parted in the crowd, and the man with the sharp beak and monkey cheeks walked out of it and shouted arrogantly at Jiang Chuanyue.

"Ghost Miao, what do you think?"

Jiang Chuanyue didn't show the slightest nervousness, and didn't pay attention to the man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, but looked at the group of "robbers" in front of him with great interest, and asked the ghost beside him.

"Definitely not robbers." Under the raincoat, Miao's gloomy voice sounded, and the tone was very affirmative.

"Why ....."

"Hey, you two, are you going to die!"

Seeing that the two of them didn't take themselves seriously at all, the man's face turned grim, and he was about to wave his hand and beckon his subordinates to rush up.

"My lord, the hyena asks to take the lead."

At this moment, a raincoat man who was following Jiang Chuanyue stepped forward and said in a deep voice.

"Exactly."

Glancing at the hyena, Jiang Chuanyue replied lightly.

"Very good, it looks like you ......"

Seeing that these people in front of him didn't take themselves seriously at all, the thin man was furious, and he just wanted to say a few cruel words, but before he finished speaking, he couldn't say any more.

The sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and in the afterglow he saw a standing headless corpse with blood gushing wildly.

"Huh? How did that corpse's clothes look so much like the one I'm wearing today? ”

Subsequently, the thin man's mind was forever plunged into darkness......

"Those who dare to stand in the way of adults will be killed!"

As soon as the voice fell, the thin man's head fell to the ground with a thud, stained with jet-black mud......
