As you go, the mountains on both sides of the official road gradually become dense and continuous, and the field of vision becomes narrower and narrower.

Ji Donglai raised his hand to stop the horse and said in a loud voice: "Rest for a while, and continue to move forward in a quarter of an hour." ”

Many members of the dart team took out their water bags and ran to the nearby Gushui River to wash and replenish water.

Ji Donglai was not in a hurry to dismount, turned his head and smiled at Ji Yuerong: "After the Qilian Mountains ahead, it is the Liangzhou Realm, and it is also commonly known as Guannei by our people in the Western Regions." ”

Ji Yuerong, who had never been out of the Western Regions in his life, was not a lonely person, and he had read some books in addition to practicing martial arts, and muttered to himself: "Qilian Mountain? This is Qilian Mountain, isn't it Liangzhou City, a big city with Jingshi, Yangzhou, and Yizhou? I heard that Liangzhou City was surrounded by the Tubo Marshal Lingyou for half a month and never broke the city, and it really lived up to the name of Xiongguan in the northwest of my Heavenly Dynasty. ”

Ji Donglai was quite surprised by his daughter's erudition, and scolded with a smile: "I said why your martial arts have not grown up, it turns out that you are secretly reading books again." ”

Ji Yuerong pulled the reins and turned the horse's head, and while walking towards the valley water, she didn't forget to turn around and say coquettishly: "Daddy, your thinking is too old. The era of 'women without talent is virtue' has long passed. ”

The dart car stopped suddenly, Li Tiantu leaned on the box of goods with Erlang's legs crossed, lazily did not even move his buttocks, chewing the fennel beans that Fubo had stolen in his mouth, gurgling, and did not forget to take out the water bag to rinse his mouth after the beans went down.

Fu Bo rolled his eyes and said with a wry smile: "This is my drinking stuff for more than ten days, and it has only been three days before you are about to finish the scourge." ”

Li Tiantu threw the last bean into his mouth, patted his hands and said, "I'm about to arrive in Liangzhou City, wait until I ask Ji Nuxia for some silver for you to buy later." ”

Speaking of Ji Yuerong, Li Tiantu just saw Miss Ji running towards the Gushui River Beach out of the corner of his eye, and said: "Good scenery, it still needs to be decorated by beautiful women to make people pleasing to the eye." Fu Bo, you see that gang of old men pouting their big cheeks and washing the cattle in the river, wouldn't it be a big spoiler to the scenery? ”

Fu Bo, who was holding a water bag and looking up to pour water, glanced at Li Tiantu with disdain, and snorted: "You kid doesn't have a backache when you stand and talk." If you get out of the car and walk all day, the posture of keeping you drinking water is even more ugly than theirs. ”

Li Tiantu suddenly felt that he was at a loss, and he smiled and stopped talking.

At the same time, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the mountain pass directly in front of the road.

More than 100 black cavalrymen roared and stopped abruptly in front of the dart team.

Ji Donglai was able to gather his scattered subordinates, and looked at this group of black cavalry that came unexpectedly with a wary expression.

The leader is a black-faced young man in a strong suit, holding a pair of judge pens, looking at the side of the Dragon Gate Dart Bureau with an arrogant expression, it is Chang Rui, the "Dragon Judge" of the Dead City.

Ji Donglai's heart was cold, and when he saw the pair of signboard-like judges' pens, how could he not know that the person who came was Chang Rui of the Dead City and more than 100 ghostly pawns.

Ji Donglai had already heard of the cruelty and murder of the ghost pawns in the city of death, and at this time, he couldn't give birth to the idea of resisting, so he had no choice but to clench his fists and said: "My Longmen Dart Bureau and the city of death have always been unjust and hateful, I don't know why the Holy Envoy blocked our way?" ”

Judge Long said coldly: "Leave the darts, this time I can make an exception and let you all go; Otherwise, the chicken dog is not left. ”

As soon as Chang Rui's words came out, the Longmen Dart Bureau was indignant, and the dart masters showed their weapons one by one, and there was a great tendency to die.

The city of vain death is in the limelight in the Central Plains, but its influence in the vast Western Regions is limited, and the people of the Dragon Gate Dart Bureau are still hearsay about the evil style of the city of vain death, so these dart masters who do some knives and lick blood all day long are not afraid.

The people present may only be Ji Donglai and a few people know the power of the dead city, but as the head of the dart, he has no way, as a bodyguard, no matter how strong the enemy is, there is only one way to fight to the death. If he dropped the dart and fled, don't say that the person who supported the dart can't spare him, even for the sake of the plaque of the Longmen Dart Bureau in Shazhou City, he can't do such a thing to escape.

Ji Yuerong is like a father who knows all kinds of bad deeds in the city of vain, but she has to bite the bullet and say: "The city of the dead is the first of the four secret places in the rivers and lakes, and it has the masters of the two major land lists. ”

Chang Rui glanced at Ji Yuerong coldly, although he felt that the chick in front of him was good, but his heart had already been filled with the better Xuanji Gate Snow Fairy, but he didn't have crooked thoughts, and said coldly: "I have never prided myself on being famous and decent in the city in vain." In the rivers and lakes, strength is everything, and the girl is too naïve. My son's patience is limited, so it's better for you to make a decision early. ”

Li Tiantu didn't expect that the vain death city far away in Shu would be forced to intervene at this time, and the person who came was actually an old acquaintance. But what should be done about the current situation?

However, one thing he can be sure of is that Ji Donglai is by no means the enemy of the "Dragon Judge" Chang Rui, and it is impossible for him to go elsewhere and secretly change his identity to save people.

Fu Bo beside him shook his head and sighed: "Even the people who died in vain are alarmed. It seems that these eighteen big boxes are really filled with real money, and I really shouldn't take this dart in the Longmen Dart Bureau. With the temperament of the head of the dart, this time we are afraid that dozens of us will all be put here. ”

Li Tiantu patted Fu Bo on the shoulder, got up and jumped out of the carriage, looked back at Fu Bo who sighed and smiled: "Fu Bo, I met an old acquaintance this time, I went over and said." ”

Fu Bo's slightly narrowed old eyes suddenly widened, and he opened his mouth but had nothing to say, just stared at Li Tiantu slowly to the front without blinking.

Ji Donglai slowly pulled out the long knife behind his back, and said in a deep voice with a fearless face: "The permanent judge should know that the person who carries the dart is the life of the dart, and it is difficult to obey the fate." ”

Chang Rui snorted coldly, and was about to wave his hand to signal his subordinates to rush up, but suddenly saw Li Tiantu who had already traveled to Ji Donglai's side.

Li Tiantu smiled and said, "Brother Chang, it's been a long time." ”

Looking at Li Tiantu's harmless appearance of humans and animals, "Dragon Judge" Chang Rui gasped.

As a high-level leader of the Vain Death City, how could he not know that Li Tiantu was no longer the ordinary person who sacrificed his life to save his beloved woman and stole medicine in the Vain City of Death yesterday. After Li Tiantu took over the post of the protector of Li Bu's Anxi capital, entered the Western Regions and forced Lingyou's 200,000 troops to retreat, this former rival of the city of vain has become a behemoth that trembles when he stomps his feet and trembles in the rivers and lakes. The real purpose of the city lord's coming to Liangzhou City this time to seal thousands of miles is precisely to deal with the Anxi capital that has become a climate.

I have to admit that the gap with Li Tiantu is getting farther and farther, and he knows that with the variable of Li Tiantu, the situation is no longer under his control, and after stabilizing his mind, Chang Rui shouted in a low voice: "Li Tiantu, why are you here?" ”

Li Tiantu was afraid that Chang Rui would reveal his identity more, so he hugged his arms and said lightly: "Brother Chang, we are also old friends." I have a lot of connections with the Longmen Dart Bureau, and I would like to ask Brother Chang to make it easier for me to see the face of my old friend. ”

Chang Rui, who has always regarded Li Tiantu as his biggest rival, had a cloudy face, and he seemed to be unwilling to stop, but if he continued, he was afraid that the city lord would not be able to afford it, so he finally turned his horse's head after pondering for a long time, and said coldly: "Li Tiantu, we will see you again." ”
