Chapter 821: The Road Has Thorns
readx;? The team left Linshan County in a mighty manner, and Zuo Feng saw Zhong Lao before leaving the county seat. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhong Lao just waved goodbye to himself from afar, and he didn't have a chance to say a word.
Zhong Lao's expression was a little special, and he looked a little tangled, as if he wanted to say something to himself.
If there was only the words of Deputy City Lord Yao, Zuo Feng would only be vigilant, but now that Zhong Lao is like this, he has to make Zuo Feng sure in his heart that something must have been heard by these two people.
Painting Seven was only encountered at the city gate, and in addition to Painting Seven himself, there were many people who were somewhat close to Painting Qi's dress. The clothes of these more than ten people have lines very similar to those of the painting seven, and they seem to be the warriors of their painters, and the cultivation of these people is also very good, and the weakest ones are also in the middle of the tempering period, and the masters are already in the feeling period.
Although there are only fifteen of these people, it is not difficult to see from the special position between them when they are walking in their hearts, that they often cooperate with each other, and have a set of joint martial arts cooperation. This kind of multi-person combined martial art is very rare, and once practiced, it is also very powerful.
In the past, Zuo Feng had very little contact, and it was not until the time of the new county town that he saw the power and effect of this kind of joint martial arts, especially in the multi-person melee, which was the most able to suppress the scene.
Hua Qi's mood was obviously not too high, especially after seeing Zuo Feng, he didn't even want to say hello, but just owed a little on horseback. Zuo Feng didn't care too much about this, after all, he was the seventh son of a painter, and he didn't need to be polite to himself.
Zuo Feng was even more concerned about whether the group of people brought by this painting seven were the ones who reminded him to pay more attention to the deputy city lord of Yao. If this is the case, it seems that the reason is somewhat unreasonable.
The combat effectiveness of these fifteen people should be good, but the city guard was sent a team of close to two hundred people. It would be a problem to defeat such an army with the strength of these fifteen men alone, let alone kill yourself in this ranks.
In Zuo Feng's opinion, if the painter is really crazy, he will never openly attack himself. In that case, even if he kills himself, he will not be able to explain this matter when he goes to the imperial capital, and at the same time, he is likely to be disqualified.
Of course, these judgments themselves are also based on Zuo Feng's cognition, and he still can't really judge the attitude of the real Xuanwu Empire, so since there is hostility towards the painting around him, he has to be more careful.
However, as a large pair of people and horses slowly left Linshan County, Zuo Feng felt that his worries seemed to be a little unnecessary, at least this painting seven did not look like he was going to attack him.
The county seat of Linshan is located in the Elixir Mountain Range, and after only a few miles out of the city, it becomes a rugged mountain road. It is impossible for a large group of men and horses to advance in formation on such a road, because the narrowest position can only accommodate three people in parallel, and the team is therefore stretched slender.
Hua Qiyou and his people walked at the back of the line at the beginning, while Zuo Feng walked at the front of the line according to the previous practice. This is actually a practice for many years, after the competition in the county town of Yaozi, the first and second places will go to the imperial capital, which is not only to give the two promoters the attitude of the victors to admire, but also to show the military appearance of a county town.
Therefore, the first place should have the posture of the first place, and the team will be naturally protected in the front position, and the second place will also be promoted, but in order to be differentiated, it will walk at the back of the team. In this way, the distance between the two is widened, but they will not worry about any friction between each other on the road.
After leaving the city, Zuo Feng was still secretly observing, painting seven and the actions of his guards, to see if they had secretly made some small moves. But after observing for a while, I found that their people were so honest that they didn't even talk to the guards around them.
Seeing these situations, Zuo Feng felt a little relieved, but at the same time, he also felt even more headache, because if he discharged the painting seven, then where could other threats appear, and he had no direction for a while.
After the group left Linshan County, the first few miles of the road were quite wide and flat, and the walking was quite fast. However, after crossing this flat road, we entered the rugged path in the mountains, which was very rough and difficult to walk, and the speed gradually slowed down.
The path they are taking now is completely opposite to the route they took when they followed the Su family convoy. At the beginning, they came to Linshan County from Bald Mountain City and all the way into the Elixir Mountain Range.
That section of the road was actually just entering the mountains, and coming out of the Linshan County City, it would be more troublesome to go in the direction of the imperial capital, but it would be necessary to travel a long distance in the Elixir Mountain Range.
Because it is not safe to travel alone or in a small group in the Elixir Mountain Range, most people will choose to leave from the direction of Bald Mountain City, and then go to the branch of Ye Xuanjiang from there to go around a large circle and take the waterway to the imperial capital. This road is relatively safe and easier to walk, but it has to take a long detour, and it is impossible to reach the imperial capital within half a month.
Therefore, all along, the people who have been qualified for the promotion in Linshan County Town will go around the difficult road of the Elixir Mountain Range to the imperial capital under the escort of the team. Zuo Feng didn't know at this time that this road was by no means just difficult, and danger was already waiting for him ahead.
Because there are fewer people walking on this road, there are a lot of weeds on the road, and the two columns of soldiers in front not only have to lead the way in front, but also use their long knives to constantly chop grass to clear a way for the rear team.
Clearing the road like this, even if the cultivation of several soldiers in front of them has reached the late stage of bone refining, they still can't increase their speed too fast. Because there were only three or four people crowded in front, the speed could not be completely fast.
"Seeing that your expression is very serious, is there any danger ahead?"
Amber and Zuo Feng walked side by side, and both of them were presented with a very handsome horse when they left the City Lord's Mansion. It was also very convenient for the two of them to talk while riding on their horses, as long as they leaned slightly towards each other, they could not let the surrounding guards hear the conversation.
After hearing this, Zuo Feng sighed in his heart, and said slowly: "It seems that I still have to practice, otherwise it will not be a good thing for people to see what I think in my heart." Did I ever leave the city and be preoccupied? ”
Amber shook her head with a smile and said, "You don't have to think too much, the main reason why I can see that you have something on your mind is because the two of us have been together for a long time, and I don't see some things but feel them." Your whole body seems to be tense, and if there is something wrong with this feeling, how can you be so cautious. ”
Zuo Feng nodded and said, "I do know something, but I don't know what will happen and where it will happen now, so I am so nervous." ”
Seeing Amber's puzzled look, Zuo Feng said some of the words that Deputy City Lord Yao said when he left the City Lord's Mansion, as well as Zhong Lao's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping.
Amber immediately sank his face after hearing this, not only could Zuo Feng see the problem, but he could also feel the smell of mountain rain coming. For him, who often carried out dangerous tasks, he could immediately smell a hint of conspiracy and danger, and he could also feel that this danger would definitely threaten the two of them.
After a little groaning, Amber looked around vigilantly, and said in a lower voice: "You said that there is a problem with the City Lord's Mansion, if so, these guards will not be "life-saving" but "life-saving". ”
Zuo Feng pondered slightly, and then continued his words: "I have also thought about it, if it is a threat to me, and it can make Deputy City Lord Yao and Elder Zhong aware of it, there is no doubt that these guards are the most suspicious of the City Lord, especially after Deputy City Lord Yao appeared when I left, he did not send him back, but immediately turned back." ”
Amber was slightly stunned after hearing this, but said: "If it is really what he wants to do secretly, is this a little too revealing, it doesn't seem to be in line with his usual left wind." ”
Zuo Feng nodded, and the expression on his face was slightly softened: "Actually, I just doubt it, and this is the most suspicious existence by the city lord and city guard, I have to put them first." But listening to you say this, I also think it is very reasonable, especially when there is a problem with the escort team, he is the first person who can't get out of it, it seems that he should not be very suspicious. ”
After listening to Zuo Feng's words, Amber turned her head to look at the back of the team and said, "It seems that you don't pay much attention to our Seventh Son." ”
Zuo Feng said: "Don't you also weigh the same thing, didn't you suspect them from the beginning, which shows that you and I are still very consistent in his opinions." ”
"But the team still can't fully believe that if there really is something we want to miss, we may be caught off guard at that time. ”
As Amber spoke, Zuo Feng's gaze was already looking into the dense bushes beside him, but he said, "This is very easy to do, and we will be able to see what the situation of these guards is in a moment." ”
Amber listened with some puzzlement, and his eyes also looked in the direction of Zuo Feng's view, but he didn't see anything, but soon he showed a sudden appearance.
The team was still moving forward, but it was the farthest as far as the left wind could see, and suddenly a low roar came from within the bushes, and then a strange wind with a fishy smell suddenly hit.
The moment the voice sounded, the surrounding guards reacted immediately. Everyone sprang into action at once, forming a formation around the left wind.
It had only been an hour since everyone left Linshan County, and they were immediately attacked, which also confirmed Zuo Feng's premonition that this road was not peaceful.
