Chapter 17: Flying on the Grass
So the convoy continued to move forward, while Wu Ji picked up some dead branches everywhere on both sides of the road, and then made torches one by one.
Many people in the convoy were watching him, and thought it was strange that this man had run to pick up some dead branches, but because it didn't get in their way, no one stopped him.
The convoy drove slowly but surely, and gradually it was noon, and a ravine finally appeared in front of it.
It was a small canyon, with 100-meter-high cliffs on both sides, not too steep, and the inside of the canyon was quite flat, with lush vegetation on both sides.
Wu Ji first observed and found that there was no bird call in the woods on the cliff, but from time to time there were birds flying around in the woods, but they didn't fall.
It can be seen that there must be an ambush in this wood!
It's just a small team leader, I'm afraid I don't have this marching knowledge, and I don't understand it when I tell him!
Wu Ji had no choice but to run to the front of the convoy alone with a torch on his back.
The captain of the convoy was a very good martial artist, riding on a tall horse, opening the way in front of the convoy, and after seeing Wu Ji, he asked strangely: "This guest, what are you doing here?"
Wu Ji said: "I'm in a hurry, it's convenient to go to the woods in front of me." ”
The captain let out an "oh......" sound, and his voice dragged on.
He still wondered that Wu Ji had urine, so why didn't he go to the woods on both sides, he had to go to the front. Moreover, why are you carrying so many torches?
But it didn't stop anymore.
Wu Ji trotted to the edge of the cliff and forest in front of him, put down the torch, took out the fire fold, lit the torch, and then picked it up and threw it into the woods one by one, shouting as he threw it: "Listen up, the bandits inside, our convoy has already discovered you! Hurry up and come out for me, otherwise the mountains and forests will be burned and you will all be burned to death!"
The people in the back team were dumbfounded!
The carriage and ox cart also went slowly unconsciously, and the people who drove the cart all looked at Wu Ji, and they were so surprised that they were speechless for a while, and they only thought that this person was crazy!
The captain of the convoy was stunned for a while, and shouted: "Guest...... Who are you doing?"
Before he could finish speaking, a cacophony suddenly came to mind in the woods.
Someone shouted, "Oops, the fire is burning me!"
Someone shouted, "Which king bastard smashed me?"
At the same time, a sharp arrow shot straight at Wu Ji!
Wu Ji hurriedly hid to the side at the moment he felt the danger!
"Bang!"
I heard the sound of a sharp arrow entering the tree, and the arrow missed and plunged into the trunk of the big tree next to it.
Wu Ji hurriedly dragged the spear and ran back.
One side of the two sides is a rookie who has just come out of the rivers and lakes, and the other side is a bandit with loose skills and chaotic organization.
Wu Ji ran to the front of the convoy and said to the big guy: "It's convenient for me to go, but I found bandits in ambush in the woods, it's terrible!"
As if confirming Wu Ji's words, a majestic voice sounded in the woods: "I can't hide it! The sons and daughters will go out with me to kill and rob all his mother!"
Suddenly encountering bandits, the carriage and horse shops and caravans showed good professional qualities, quickly surrounded more than two dozen carriages and ox carts, made a proposed protective wall, and then called the guards and men in the outer circle, the guests who had spent money in the inner circle, and the warriors on horseback to parade outside.
Everyone was armed and ready to fight.
Because Wu Ji is a guest, he is also in the innermost, and he is listening to the beautiful prompt sound of the system at the moment: "The task is completed, and the reward is to fly on the light grass." ”
The exercises rewarded by the system all appear directly in my mind, so I will do it immediately, but because I haven't practiced, it's very rusty.
That's when the bandits came out.
The first one, dressed in a set of shabby iron armor, with a huge axe in his hand, rode a ragtag horse, was a burly man, with a meaty face, a disheveled beard and hair, and did not know how to take care of it.
The seventy or eighty bandits who followed behind were very chaotic in their clothes and weapons, and they were noisy, and they had the demeanor of a rabble.
When the team captain saw it, he was taken aback: "The three masters of Black Wind Village, why are you?"
The bandit at the head said, "Why can't it be me?"
The captain said in a deep voice: "We have also dealt with Guizhai a lot, and every year, there are many gold and silver offerings. You and I can be regarded as having nothing to do with each other. It's just the two of us, who have also handled money and drank a few glasses of wine, and today we are suddenly ambushed on the road, what is our intention?"
The third leader of the bandits said with a smile: "What do you want? Of course it's all your goods! Don't talk nonsense, leave all the goods for me, give me all the gold, silver, weapons, and horses under your crotch, and then get out of here immediately!"
Wu was greatly shocked, Captain Xindao, you must not agree. When I went to Honghu County, I relied on the big bag of gold and silver on my body! If I was taken away by bandits, I was afraid that I would have to drink the northwest wind!
Fortunately, the captain of the team has professional qualities, of course, he may also be afraid that his own signboard will be smashed, or he is confident in his own strength.
The three masters stopped answering, picked up the big axe and rushed up!
The captain did not give in, picked up the long knife and slapped the horse and rushed forward.
The two sides fought for a few rounds, and it was difficult to distinguish between the top and bottom, and the three masters shouted: "Sons and daughters!"
A group of bandits rushed up.
The guards and men also rushed forward and fought the bandits with real swords.
Wu Ji practiced flying on the grass while observing the strength of both sides.
The bandit leader is about the same strength as the captain of the team, and he can be regarded as an old warrior for many years, with strong internal strength, a lot of power between actions, and superb combat power, far surpassing himself.
The bandits and the guards of the convoy turned out to be warriors, and even the guys, a considerable number of them were warriors.
Warriors are really worthless......
Wu Ji sighed in his heart. In this world, as far as the hell I see is concerned, the force is also very high, and the warriors who open the monument and crack the stones, fly the eaves and walk the wall are the same as the college students in the previous life, everywhere, and they are still at the low level of society.
However, Wu Ji also discovered the problem of these martial artists, most of them are similar to the martial artists in Xiaohe Village, they can only have one or two low-level martial arts, and they have insisted on cultivating for decades to have today's strength, and the means of fighting the enemy are very single.
For example, Wu Ji didn't find a bandit who would specialize in light work!
Wu Ji couldn't help but itch.
And because the number of bandits far exceeds the escort of the convoy, the convoy defense circle has fallen into full disadvantage and is in urgent need of support.
So Wu Ji left the protective belt formed by the carriage and came to the dangerous outside!
