Chapter 1: Halfway Robbery
The cold mist filled the bamboo forest at night, and the clear moonlight could not completely penetrate this layer of fog, and the damp atmosphere enveloped the surroundings.
A horse-drawn carriage drove slowly through the woods, its dark green bamboo leaves overhead obscuring the unknown moonlight, making it even more difficult to distinguish the road ahead.
The carriage seemed to move forward unhurriedly, surrounding a group of men in black dark gold auspicious cloud suits, each holding a silver saber in his hand, his sharp eyes looking around vigilantly, and as the moonlight became thicker, he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Seeing that he was about to leave the woods, the man in the lead suddenly raised his hand and quickly clenched it into a fist, and when the others saw this, they immediately stopped.
"Lin Tao, why did you stop?"
There was a low and stern voice from the carriage, like a ray of clear water.
A bony hand lifted a corner of the carriage curtain, revealing a jaw with sharp lines and a pair of thin-cut lips.
"My lord, there is a mass grave in front of you, and if anyone wants to rob Mapu and save him, that place must be an ambush." Lin Tao stepped forward and clasped his fists with both hands, and asked cautiously, "Do you want to change your route to save ......?" ”
Ma Pu is a repeat offender, and he was finally caught, but he was robbed or killed on the way, and the entire Dali Temple will be in trouble.
"It takes a full ten days to travel by detour, and there are too many variables, since there are all risks, there are always changes."
"Yes."
Given the order, the crowd set out again.
The closer the group got to the mass grave, the darker the sky became, and the road that stretched out became more and more blurred, as if it was a black evil mouth, waiting for people to take the initiative to be devoured.
All of them cheered up, slowed down, and walked towards the depths of the mass grave without making a sound.
At this moment, several black-clothed people sprang out from all directions.
"Who's coming?!" Lin Tao shouted loudly, "Dali Temple is on business, leave quickly!" ”
The man in black did not answer, and attacked the carriage with a steel knife, and the silver knife caught up quickly and killed the man in black.
The martial arts of several black-clothed men are not as good as these fast-catching opponents at all, but even so, they are deadly swords, fighting for their lives.
While they were fighting, three more men in black rushed out from other places and headed straight for the carriage.
The two catchers guarding the carriage couldn't stop it at all, and the martial arts of these three people were much higher than the other black-clothed people, and they were soon exploited by the other party.
One of the black-clothed men jumped high and slapped down towards the top of the carriage in mid-air, instantly scattering the carriage, and just as he was about to drop the second palm, a slender hand passed through the debris to meet the wind, and stopped without hesitation.
The man in black was shocked by the opponent's internal strength and fell backwards, falling from mid-air, and immediately spat blood from his mouth.
The man in an indigo robe stood in the dark night, the moonlight reflected a soft light on the lines of the silver flowing clouds around his neck, and a blue auspicious cloud wide-edged brocade was tied around his waist, and the tassels with white jade on both sides were hanging down, making the man even more slender and straight.
"The lord is really like a god, and knows that you have personally come to escort the prisoner." After the man in black who fell to the ground looked up and saw the man's appearance, he sneered and said, "Ye Junchen, today is your death taboo!" ”
After hearing the other party's words, the figure of the man who was called Ye Junchen did not move at all, as if the fighting around him had nothing to do with him, and the shouting in black to take his life was just a joke.
