Ji Donglai looked at his only daughter lovingly, and sighed lightly: "No way." Yuerong and her mother left early, the old man is such a baby daughter, and he is counting on finding a child from a famous family in the future, even if the old man is not there one day, he is at ease. ”

Ji Yuerong on the side said: "Dad, what nonsense are you talking about, you will definitely live a long life." ”

Li Tiantu smiled indifferently and sighed lightly: "It seems that a down-and-out scholar like me and others from ordinary families has no chance. ”

Ji Yuerong glared at Li Tiantu angrily.

Ji Donglai laughed and said: "Although your kid is very angry with the old man, it is not enough to want to be the son-in-law of the old man just because of the amount of alcohol, but if you can enter Beijing one day, it is not without a chance." ”

Ji Yuerong didn't expect her father to tease herself like Li Tiantu, stomped her feet angrily, and fled.

Li Tiantu reminded loudly: "If Miss Yuerong wants to wash, she can go north from the camp, and there is a green lake about two or three miles away. ”

Ji Yuerong's steps were slow, as if she was thinking about the truth of Li Tiantu's words, and finally headed north.

Ji Donglai, who mistakenly thought that Li Tiantu had been here before, was convinced of this remark and regretted: "Brother Li didn't say it earlier, I still have Lao Huang and them buying some drinking water in the city, and I would have saved some silver taels if I knew that there was a lake in the north." ”

Although Ji Donglai's words were plain, Li Tiantu smelled a different meaning from them, who would have thought that the Longmen Dart Bureau, which used to exist like a behemoth in the Western Regions, was now in such a difficult situation, and sighed: "The next time I camp, I will choose a place for the younger brother to ensure that I will save a sum of money for the head of the dart to buy water." ”

The sky is getting dark, and what is surprising is that Lao Huang, who went to the city to purchase supplies, has not returned for a long time.

The longer the time, the deeper Ji Donglai's brows wrinkled, and from time to time he looked at the direction of Ganzhou City next to the official road, but found that the desolate Ganliang Road was like a lonely and winding long snake against the background of the dusk sunset, and there were few pedestrians on the road.

According to Li Tiantu's reminder, Ji Yuerong, who found a clear lake, washed up, swept away the tiredness and haggard of several days of travel, and the whole person became energetic, and when he passed by Li Tiantu's side, he suddenly forgot about his previous unhappiness, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Li." ”

Li Tiantu smiled back, watching Ji Yuerong go, but thinking of another thing in his heart.

Yan Mengyu became more and more mysterious in Li Tiantu's eyes, the thirty boxes of rare treasures behind him were of immeasurable value, as the richest man in the world of the Zhu family in Beijing, he was afraid that it would hurt his muscles and bones to take out these treasures, and where did this woman come from, what do you want to do? Li Tiantu suddenly had an absurd idea in his heart, he knew so much about Yan Mengyu's secrets, he wouldn't be killed by her next. Usually the two of them meet, although Yan Mengyu is affectionate one by one, but before he became famous in the rivers and lakes, he was so cold to himself, this is a woman who puts interests first. Li Tiantu has every reason to believe that if he comes to the point where he harms her interests, Yan Mengyu will not hesitate to use a top master like Mr. Feng San to kill him.

Li Tiantu, who was thinking a little far, saw Ji Donglai pacing non-stop by the forest, and thought of Lao Huang and others who had left the team for a long time and did not return, and knew that the time to come was finally here, and tonight was destined to be an uneven night.

Tie Li, who had long coveted the Longmen Dart Bureau, naturally installed an internal response in the Dart Bureau very early. From Neiying's mouth, he learned that Ji Donglai had recently received a dart, and the dart reward was a thousand taels of gold, and he immediately couldn't sit still. It wasn't until Ji Donglai brought hundreds of taels of gold to pay off the previous arrears that Tie Li was once again sure of the accuracy of this news. As the leader of the Iron Sand Gang, who started from the underworld, the treacherous and cunning Tie Li naturally knew that the value of the goods that could be paid for a thousand taels of gold was immeasurable, so at that moment he made up his mind to intercept this dart. In order to hide people's eyes, Tie Li even secretly followed him from Shazhou City to Ganzhou, and he didn't do anything until Ji Donglai parked the dart team in the woods north of the city and sent Lao Huang and the two to the city to buy supplies, and he made up his mind to capture Lao Huang and others and do it here. I'm afraid I'm going to reach Liangzhou in a few days, thinking about the uncrowned king of Liangzhou who leans towards one side and kills both black and white, Tie Li is really afraid of long nights and dreams.

When it was dark, Ji Donglai didn't wait for Lao Huang and the others, but waited for a team of black-clothed people masked in black veils, and without saying a word when they arrived at the grove, they showed their swords one by one, and their intention to rob the darts was self-evident.

Because Lao Huang and the others did not return for a long time, Ji Donglai, who had been prepared earlier, did not panic, and pulled out the wind splitting knife on his back to stop the black-clothed man led by him.

The rest of the dart team also showed their own blades, and fought around the dart cart.

Li Tiantu, who was sitting on the rut, saw that the two black-clothed people who led the robbery were only at the level of Ji Donglai, so he was not in a hurry to make a move, and when he encountered an eyeless knife to take the initiative to provoke, Li Tiantu was also easily resolved.

The whole scene is generally stalemate, but Ji Yuerong is facing one of the two leaders, and Ji Nuxia is not easy to deal with, just two of them are already in danger. Ji Donglai, who paid attention to his beloved daughter's side from time to time, was anxious, but he couldn't escape the entanglement of an opponent who was better than him, and his right shoulder was swept by the opponent's palm wind under distraction, and he suddenly fell behind.

Seeing this, Li Tiantu, who had already secretly deducted a handful of stones in his hand, just flicked his right hand lightly, and turned the dangerous Ji Yuerong into safety, and even slashed the enemy with a sword.

In the face of this sudden accident, the black-clothed man who was fighting with Ji Donglai suddenly changed his complexion, and then looked around to find that most of his men and horses had been cut down, so he had no choice but to force Ji Donglai back with all his strength, and hurriedly retreated with the few survivors.

Ji Yuerong stared at the blood-stained long sword, still unable to believe it, and kept looking around with pretty eyes, but found that there was no one else around except for the dense woods and his own people. Ji Nuxia stretched out the tip of her sword and picked up the deceased's face scarf, and when she glanced at it, she took three steps back in shock, and exclaimed: "Evil head! ”

Ji Donglai watched the rest of the black-clothed people retreat, and did not chase after him, and when he heard Ji Yuerong exclaim, he hurriedly rushed over, and confirmed that the deceased was the evil leader of the Iron Sand Gang, and said in a deep voice: "If my father expected it, that person just now was Tie Li." No wonder he felt that the other party had reservations when he was fighting, and he must be afraid that the old man would recognize his identity. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the old man will not be his opponent for a long time. ”

Ji Donglai stared at Ji Yuerong and wondered: "It's just Yuerong, what's going on?" Evil Toutuo's skills are not under Tie Li, you have just been in danger, why did you kill him with such an abnormal sword? ”

Ji Yuerong, who was also confused, smiled bitterly: "At that time, I only felt that I was about to be injured by him, and subconsciously blocked it with a long sword, but I didn't expect the other party to be defenseless, so he was killed by the sword." ”

Ji Yuerong hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the dead bodies all over the ground, and said in a panic: "Dad, don't you think it's a little strange?" ”

Ji Dong took a look at the dead bodies all over the ground in front of him, but found that all of them were left by the attackers, and although a few people on his side were seriously injured, none of them died.

The whole scene exudes an invisible and strange color.
