Qiao Xinyu watched Qiao Nianxi get down from the carriage, she was inexplicably nervous, and was about to go down, but was stopped by Saiyue. ▲-八▲-八▲-Read▲-Book,.◇.o≧

"You obediently don't come out in the carriage, I'll keep an eye at the door, and I won't let the young lady have an accident. ”

As he spoke, Saiyue took two steps to the side of the carriage, and Yu Guang looked around, feeling a little bottom in his heart.

Qiao Xinyu was also obedient, walked out with the sacrifice of the moon, obediently retreated and sat down, and tightly grabbed the frame of the carriage.

Qiao Nianxi got out of the carriage and walked over with the place where everyone gathered, only to find that the two Bodhi trees were cut off horizontally, just stopping in the middle of the official road.

At this time, the old lady and everyone also came out of the carriage, and Lu helped the old lady in the front, looking at the Bodhi tree intercepted in the middle of the road, and straightened the tooth flower.

"Oh, how good is this! I was fine when I came here yesterday, why did I fall!" the old lady looked at it with a worried face.

Qiao Chuying stood on the side of the Lin family, listening to the old lady's words, her face was pale, as if she remembered something: "Grandmother, Bodhi is a treasure tree of the Buddhist family, and now the tree is in the middle of the road, does it mean that the Buddha will not let us pass here?

After saying a word, Qiao Chuying learned from the old lady's brows, and seemed to be a little worried and afraid.

Qiao Nianxi glanced sideways at Qiao Chuying's side, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes.

The two linden trees blocking the road are all new wounds, and if you look closely, you will find that the wounds on the edge are neat, obviously thinking that after cutting the periphery, you can use brute force to break it, which is not natural, but the people who do the hands and feet are very smart, and you can't see the cut place with mud.

The old lady only thought that she couldn't get over and was anxious, and she didn't notice these details, she turned her head to look at Qiao Chuying when she heard this, her face was even more dignified, and after thinking for a while, she felt that she was reasonable, and nodded while having another question.

"There is only one official road to Shengde Temple, and there is no other way!"

While speaking, the old lady turned her head to look at Qiao Hongyuan, he is the head of the family, and he has to listen to his opinion on this kind of matter.

Qiao Hongyuan also made a difficulty, not to mention whether this matter was done on purpose, but looking at the two trees and carriages, it was definitely impossible to pass, so it seemed that there was only a detour.

"Does anyone know that there is a road leading to the bottom of the mountain nearby?" Qiao Hongyuan turned his head to look at the family who followed with a cold face.

Hearing Qiao Hongyuan's voice, a coachman in homespun clothes walked out of the crowd and looked at Qiao Hongyuan with a courteous face.

"Back to the Hou Ye, the villain knows that there is a small road along the foot of the mountain, and the direction is different from our current direction, but it can enter the imperial capital from the south of the city. ”

As he spoke, the coachman leaned forward.

Qiao Nianxi felt that the coachman was a little familiar from just now, and now when he got closer, he recognized that it was the Liu coachman who drove the car for him before, Liu Jinduo.

Just as Qiao Nianxi's gaze lingered on Liu Jinduo's face, Lu Shi opened his mouth first: "There is no official defense over there, in case we encounter bandits, it is not easy for our family to run!"

The bandits are desperate to steal money, if they really meet, what can this family do?

The old lady was stunned, her face was a little more nervous, although she brought a lot of family members, but Qiao Hongyuan was a civil official, and the people under her hands fought hard with the bandits, and they only suffered losses.

Liu Jinduo looked at the old lady and didn't speak, took two steps forward, and grinned at the corner of her mouth: "Don't worry, big lady, the bandits all start their activities early in the morning and evening, and now in the middle of the day, the bandits don't come out, not to mention that there are a lot of us!"

Qiao Nianxi listened to Liu Jinduo's words, and felt that something was wrong, and walked a few steps forward to the old lady: "Grandmother, the path is not smoother than the official road, the road is extremely bumpy, you are old, this road is unbearable, we bring a lot of people, it is better to let them move the trees on the road and let's go again! Although it takes some time, it is much better than taking the path, not to mention, we have not stepped directly from the tree, and it is not disrespectful to the Buddha." ”

The old lady couldn't stand it the most, and when she heard Qiao Nianxi say this, her face couldn't help but ease a little, and she turned her head and was about to ask Qiao Hongyuan for what she wanted, but she didn't want Qiao Chuying to speak again.

"I think this is the Buddha's guidance to us!"

As she spoke, Qiao Chuying approached the old lady, looked at the Bodhi tree lying in the middle of the road, and looked worried: "So many things have happened in our family recently, we have just calmed down, and now we are willing to be stopped by the Buddha halfway, what if we are too hard to go against the Buddha's will and be condemned again?"

Hearing Qiao Chuying's words, the old lady thought about the recent events at home, as if she had been pricked with a needle, and her face turned pale after a while.

"Yes! Yes! You say yes! Let's just take the path! I can bear this bit of bumpy suffering!"

As she spoke, the old lady turned her head to look at Qiao Hongyuan, with a firm expression on her face, and she had already made up her mind.

Qiao Hongyuan twisted his brows and was thinking, but he heard that the old lady had already made a decision, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Liu Jinduo, lead the way!"

"Yes!"

Liu Jinduo listened and let himself lead the way, turned his head and handed the horsewhip in his hand to the person next to him, and walked in the direction of the trail ahead.

Qiao Nianxi looked at Liu Jinduo's back, the expression in her eyes was a little more fierce, and she wanted to persuade again, but looking at the expression on the old lady's face, she knew that she couldn't listen to it either, so she simply didn't say much, turned her head and walked into the carriage.

"Third sister, what's wrong?" Qiao Xinyu saw that Qiao Nianxi's face was not very good-looking, and her face was a little more nervous.

Qiao Nian was sorry for a moment, looked up at Qiao Xinyu, and his face was a little more serious: "Xinyu, if you follow me, you must be obedient, do you know?"

Qiao Xinyu was stunned, she had never seen Qiao Nianxi so serious, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and nodded subconsciously: "Okay, I will listen to the third sister!"

Qiao Nianxi nodded, stretched out his hand to help Sai Yue's hand and got into the carriage.

The moment the curtain fell, Saiyue leaned in front of Qiao Nianxi and whispered a few words, and her face still made people unable to see joy and anger.

Qiao Nianxi's expression on her face changed instantly, and she quickly returned to her normal color, and reached out to pull Qiao Xinyu to her side, looking calm and indifferent, but secretly planning in her heart.

The road was bumpy, the carriage was walking very slowly, in addition to Liu Jinduo, there was also a family member in the crowd who knew the road, and the two of them led everyone inside, and the road was calm.

As the path winds, the carriage gradually enters the deep forest, the forest is large but not dense, the forest is also full of small-leaved trees, and the dappled sunlight can still illuminate the path in the forest.

The carriage swayed forward, and just when it was about to reach the exit of the woods, suddenly a cold drink came from somewhere, and everyone sighed in their hearts, it was broken!

Before the sound of "stop" fell, a group of big men in coarse cloth clothes with long knives in hand quickly rushed out, and before everyone could react, they quickly surrounded the carriage procession in a semicircle.

Because it was a narrow road, the carriages could only go forward one by one, and now they could surround the carriages that had already come out, but they could not block those behind.

Qiao Nianxi's face turned pale, he lifted the curtain and looked out, roughly understood the situation outside, and turned his head to look at the sacrifice moon: "Wait for a while, take Xinyu and leave first!"

"Yes!"

Saiyue nodded, and there was an extra arm blade between the cuffs at some point.

"Three, three sisters!"

Qiao Xinyu was frightened from just now, and after listening to Qiao Nianxi's words, she reached out and grabbed her arm.

Qiao Nian was sorry for a moment, looked down at Qiao Xinyu with a scared face, and gently stroked her heart: "Let's go to the front later, are you afraid?"

Originally, he wanted to send Qiao Xinyu to the Lu family's carriage, but now that the bandits have surrounded him, it is too late.

Qiao Xinyu's body trembled, then raised her head, endured the nervousness in her heart, and nodded: "With the third sister here, Xinyu is not afraid!"

"Good boy!"

Qiao Nianxi grabbed Qiao Xinyu's hand, and then turned her head to give Sai Yue a look.

In the carriage just now, Qiao Nianxi discussed the coping strategy with Saiyue, and now she knew what it meant by looking at her eyes, and lifted the curtain and instructed the coachman.

The bandits had now sealed off the road in front of the carriage procession, and a group of minions on the side were wielding knives and waving their mighty voices, and three people stood and looked like leaders came out of the bandits.

One of them was tall and mighty, wearing a sweatshirt, and the muscles on his arms were tense to make people feel a sense of horror when they looked at it, and their faces had no expression, but they had a sense of majesty out of thin air, thinking that they should be the leaders of the bandits.

The man standing next to the bandit leader was a slightly lower man, his height, appearance, clothes and expression were ordinary, but the long pigtail on his bald head was particularly eye-catching!

The whole head of this person is shiny with a handful of hair on the top of his head, and it is also braided into a long braid, and the tail is tied up with a red rope, and a hook is bent into a hook in the middle of the tail tip, which looks like a serious bandit.

Qiao Nianxi's carriage quietly walked to the front, his eyes swept over the faces of the bandits, and suddenly remembered Master Mingyuan's words, and his eyes looked at the face of the bandit leader again.

Although this person has a serious and powerful face, but if you look closely, there is no fierce color, and then look at the long knives in the hands of the bandits, it looks cold, but they are all blunt weapons, it is easy to hurt and stun people, but it is a little difficult to kill people.

Come to think of it, Master Mingyuan said that if it is handled properly, he will benefit a lot, could it be that he let himself accept these bandits?

As he was thinking, he saw the pigtail take a step forward and open his mouth.

"This ...... This...... This ......"

The pigtail opened his mouth and held back for a long time without saying a complete sentence, and almost held himself breathless, and was brewing, but heard a crisp female voice from the carriage.

"I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, if you want to cross this road, leave to buy road wealth!"

As she spoke, Qiao Nianxi lifted the curtain from the carriage, her clear eyes flashed brightly, and she looked up at the pigtail!

The pigtail was stunned for a moment, and then nodded heavily: "Yes...... That's right!"

The bandits shook their bodies, listening to the pigtail's response, dumbfounded!

Anyway, we're bandits! You still have the face to nod?

The bandits looked at the pigtails, their faces were colorful, but they were embarrassed to say it, and their cheeks were sour for a while!
