Chapter 15: A horse thief on the road
"This kid is so familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere. ”
"I remembered that he was the murderer who the hall master personally ordered us to arrest. Someone in the enforcement team exclaimed.
"What, that murderer is him, you're not mistaken!"
"I'm absolutely not mistaken, it's him. ”
"Then what are you waiting for, give me a chase. ”
"Quick, lock down the whole city, don't let him run this time. ”
Suddenly, all the law enforcement team members went out one after another, heading towards the ordinary disappearing street corner.
At the same time, the entire Luoyun City was under martial law, and all those who went out of the city had to go through a strict check.
For a while, the entire huge Luoyun City was full of chickens and dogs, and there were law enforcement team personnel everywhere arresting people, as long as there were people with similar figures, whether they were murderers or not, they would first catch them in the law enforcement hall for interrogation.
This grasp almost caught all the people in Luo Yun City who were about the same size except for the children of the family, but in the end, he still couldn't find an ordinary figure, he disappeared without a trace as if the world had evaporated.
In the wilderness outside Luoyun City, a small, tattered-clad beggar was walking slowly on the road, and in front of him there was a deep canyon, flanked by towering straight peaks.
The canyon is long and quiet, and can only accommodate two carriages side by side. And at the other end of the canyon, there is Ning City, which is many times bigger than Luo Yun City.
Looking at the gloomy canyon, the little beggar had a smile of excitement and anticipation on his face, as if this road was a gateway to another world and the beginning of a new journey.
"Ningcheng, I heard that there are often immortal cultivators passing by there, and I don't know if I can find out Yan'er's whereabouts!"
This little beggar is naturally ordinary, since he was identified outside Luoyun City Square half a month ago, he turned around and quickly fled towards the city gate. By the time the law enforcement team found out and looked for him everywhere in the city, he had already escaped from Luoyun City.
This is also because the law enforcement team officers don't know that ordinary people are immortal cultivators, and the speed of escape is comparable to that of ordinary people. Otherwise, I believe they wouldn't be stupid enough to search for them in the city.
As soon as Ping Fan came out of Luoyun City, he chose the direction in which the flying boat disappeared and left. He believed that it must be the immortal cultivation realm where the immortal sects gathered, and it was also the place where Yan'er went, as long as he kept looking in that direction, he would find her sooner or later.
The reason why he wanted to find Yan'er was because he didn't worry about the little girl being alone, after all, they had been together for so long, and the two had already become a family that cared about each other.
In addition, Pingfan still has a strong sense of gratitude to Yan'er, if he hadn't been guarding the ordinary side of Luoyun City for eight years, maybe the moment he rushed out of the highway guardrail, without the ordinary body here, he should have reported to the Netherworld Mansion by now, where would he still have the opportunity to cultivate into an immortal.
He had secretly vowed to protect Yan'er with his life, so he couldn't let her wander alone. What's more, he also wants to go to the immortal cultivation world, to the immortal cultivation world that everyone yearns for.
Looking back at the direction of Luo Yuncheng, there was an indescribable look in his ordinary eyes, and after a while, he strode towards the canyon.
"Drive, drive, drive......"
As soon as Ping Fan stepped into the canyon, he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him. He hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see a galloping luxury carriage speeding towards the canyon, and the dust was flying everywhere he passed.
And behind the carriage, there was also a group of people armed with knives and guns, with strong figures, those people were all fierce and vicious, and their behavior was arrogant.
"Do it, don't let them run. ”
In the ranks of horse thieves, a burly man with a scarred face shouted at the mouth of the canyon ahead when he saw that the carriage was about to enter the canyon. Then, at the entrance of the canyon, a rope lying across the mouth of the valley suddenly appeared in front of you.
Seeing this, the groom's expression changed dramatically, and he hurriedly grabbed the reins in his hand, and with a neighing sound, the horse stopped abruptly, narrowly avoiding the tripped over the rope.
"Hahaha! Look where you're going. ”
After such a delay, the horse thieves chasing after him had surrounded the luxurious carriage, and the big man with a scar on his face sat on the tall horse and laughed, and the other horse thieves also whistled and shouted on the horse.
"Who are you, and why are you chasing us? With anger on his face, the groom asked coldly as his eyes stared at the scarred man.
Obviously, this group of horse thieves is no longer a simple robbery, they are premeditated robbery, which can be seen from the rope lying at the mouth of the canyon just now, as well as the two horse thieves guarding the two ends of the rope, they have made all preparations. Their purpose in doing this, no matter how stupid the groom was, he could see that what they wanted was their lives.
"Haha! We are the ones who want your life, old fellow, if you know each other, you will be arrested obediently, for the sake of your loyal protector, I may be able to keep you a whole corpse, otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless. The scar-faced man smiled all over his face.
The horseman's face became even more ugly, they originally had a team of twenty people, and when they passed through the woods in front of them, it was the group of horse thieves in front of them who suddenly came out of the forest, robbed them of their supplies, and chased them all the way.
Fortunately, with the twenty guards desperately protecting him, the groom was able to drive the carriage out of the encirclement, and it was not until he was in front of this canyon that he understood the purpose of the horse thieves.
"You are really not horse thieves, it's just that I don't understand, you are so unscrupulous to chase and kill us, aren't you afraid of the revenge of our Ningcheng Nie family?"
"Ningcheng Nie family! It's so majestic, hahaha! As long as you die, I think there will be anyone else in the Nie family who will stand up for you. The big man laughed.
When the groom heard this, his face changed dramatically.
The Nie family in Ningcheng is one of the eight major families in Ningcheng, and its strength is also the top family in Ningcheng, and it can make Ningcheng shake by stomping on its feet. There are many factions within the family, and in order to get the right to speak in the family and personal interests, there have been disputes between the children of the family.
Especially the snatching of the next candidate for the head of the family, the children of all lines are fighting openly and secretly, even to the point of life and death. This situation is also a common problem within the big family, but their Nie family has not determined the successor head of the family for various reasons, so the problem is even more prominent.
How could the groom not understand the meaning of the Scarface Man's words, this was obviously another incident of internal family struggle, and their purpose was to kill the people in the carriage. And in this carriage, there is a descendant of the head of the family, who is the most likely to influence the position of the heir of the family.
"Haha! If you want to kill my young lady, then step on the old man first!"
