Chapter 20: Murderous Night Whistle

The convoy of the Luo Clan Trading House also left the town, and the people under the Golden Sword King lined up around the caravan.

"Bah", and couldn't help scolding: "Grandma, it's really annoying! If you don't leave early or late, you choose to go with Lao Tzu one day!"

Chu Chongshan was beside him, and saw Chen Shao'an's uncertain expression.

"Brother Chen, this caravan behind us is also going to enter the grassland?"

"Yes, they are the Luo family trading house of the Lieyang Empire, who go to trade with the grassland people every year, a group of profiteers!" Chen Shao'an scolded.

Chu Chongshan saw Chen Shao'an scolding the Luo family's firm, remembered some things he heard when he chatted with Gao Liumo Er yesterday, and knew that Chen Shao'an was not angry at the injustice of Luo Sanye and others yesterday.

"Brother Chen, why don't you let them go first, how about we go later?"

Chen Shaoan also annoyed those people who were noisy and shouting in the back, which was annoying.

"Okay! Let them go first, there are only a few roads into the grassland, let them be a road dog for us in front. "

Chu Chongshan urged the horse to run a few steps quickly and came to the front of the carriage. Tell the Helian sisters what he and Chen Shao'an had discussed, and the Helian sisters agreed to the decision.

Chu Chongshan passed the order, and the horse team leaned on the side of the dirt road and gave way to the middle road.

The Golden Knife King was chatting with Li Mazi, and Qian fell behind the caravan with a shot.

They also saw Chu Chongshan and these people early, and saw these people stop their horses and make way for the middle road.

"Hahaha! These little caravans still have some eyesight and know how to make way for us. It's kind of a little funny, and if they are willing to pay some protection money, let them follow us! Brothers can also get some extra money, right?"

"Are these small merchants reluctant to give up the money? haha...... "

The two laughed and got closer and closer to Chu Chongshan and the others, and when they got closer, the Golden Sword King saw Chen Shao'an standing there on horseback at a glance. The Golden Sword King looked arrogant, and glanced at Chen Shao'an on his horse.

"Oh! Who should I be? It turned out to be the great warrior who was kicked out by Luo Sanye! The big guard! Hahaha...... "

Several members of the Tiger Mercenary Regiment also laughed loudly.

Badao Li Mazi and Chen Shaoan didn't have any holidays, but they couldn't talk about any friendship.

But no matter what, everyone is a fellow in the town. At this time, he naturally couldn't laugh at Chen Shao'an with the Golden Sword King. But he couldn't pretend not to see it, and came to Chen Shao'an with a shake of the horse's reins.

"Third Brother Chen, is this also a guard?"

Chen Shao'an sat lazily on his horse, not paying attention to the ridicule of the Golden Sword King at all, and just wanted to say a few words of irony. But when he saw Li Mazi, the tyrant, came over to ask, he was busy with a straight look.

"Brother Li, yes. This is not yesterday when I met this caravan, and the Meng Dong family appreciated it, so the brothers took this little errand. "

Li Mazi looked at Chen Shao'an's group and said, "Since you are also going to enter the grassland, you might as well join us." After all, I'm a little more comfortable here, and I can take care of each other a little bit. If you want, I'll go and talk to Shopkeeper Luo, what does Brother Chen think?"

Chen Shaoan knew that he was just a kind word, and he just bought a favor.

But before Chen Shao'an could answer, the Golden Sword King next to him said in a weird manner: "Li Dangjia's kindness is in vain, but they are swordsman guards with real skills." How can we afford to look down on us people with lowly means? If someone leads a team into our caravan, I don't know how much glory we have to touch with others? How much strength we can borrow from others? We can't afford this great favor!"

Chen Shaoan smiled and ignored Wang Dadao. He smiled at Li Mazi and said, "Thank you Brother Li for your kindness! Although we have fewer people, we don't bring any valuable goods? I believe that the brothers can take care of it themselves! If there is really any difficulty? It's not too late to bother Brother Li again!"

"Okay, Brother Chen, we have to go on a journey together! If there is anything you need to help? You are welcome, just ask!"

The Golden Sword King snorted, and looked at Chu Chongshan's subordinates and laughed out loud when he looked at himself.

"The people who have been blasted out of us dare to hire them? The eyes of the caravan shopkeeper are really bright enough! No wonder the caravan doesn't even have a name! It's ridiculous! This road is not smooth, don't let the horse bandits come, this guard will disappear first? By then it will be too late to regret it, hahaha...... "

Chu Chongshan saw that the Golden Sword King looked like a villain, and when he saw him mocking Chen Shao'an, he was already impatient in his heart.

He secretly glanced at his subordinates, and these more than ten subordinates were not deliberately suppressing their momentum, and a cold and viscous murderous aura spread out.

There was also a faint bloody aura in this murderous aura, and suddenly the Golden Sword King felt that the air around him seemed to be getting colder, and he couldn't help but shudder.

The horses under the seat retreated again and again, and they didn't dare to go any further.

The cold bloody aura in the air became extraordinarily thick. There were a few people under the Golden Sword King, who were still giggling and laughing, but when they first came into contact with the momentum emanating from Chu Chongshan's subordinates, they all immediately stopped talking.

The horse was so frightened that he didn't even dare to gasp for a moment.

It seemed that the air around him was frozen, cold and viscous, and even a trace of cold sweat broke out on the corners of his forehead.

In an instant, the huge team of nearly 100 people was silent. The more timid caravan guys were in charge, and even some of them were a little weak.

The Golden Sword King was stimulated by this murderous aura, improved his luck, and faintly emitted some silver light to protect his body, which was a little better. Only a martial artist who is nearly the late stage of the fourth level can release his true qi, although the silver light is not obvious, but it can protect the body, this golden sword king is nearly the fifth level.

Suddenly, there was the sound of chanting a mantra, and a soft aura spread out, countering the murderous aura.

This circle of aura shrouded the guards of the Luo clan's caravan, and they immediately felt refreshed, and there was a slight warmth on their bodies, no longer feeling so cold and biting.

Someone cast a light spell! Among the guards of this Luo Clan's trading house, there were actually Yuan magicians above the third level!

Shi Jiu searched for the place where the voice came from, only to find that behind the Golden Sword King, there was a Yuan Sorcerer wearing a hood.

The sorcerer hid his head and face under his hood, and his whole body was covered in a wide robe, but he couldn't see his face clearly.

At that dinner, I never saw this mage present, I don't know when the Golden Sword King recruited another Yuan Magician?

The Golden Sword King was secretly shocked in his heart at this time, who are these people? Why are they so murderous? Restrained a trace of arrogance, nodded behind him, snorted coldly, and galloped over.

With the blessing of this light spell, the rest of the people felt better and walked forward after him.

When passing in front of Chu Chongshan's dozen subordinates, someone secretly glanced at these knights on horseback.

I saw that these people's eyes were cold, like tigers and leopards about to prey, staring at their necks, chests and abdomen, and their provocation was not concealed at all.

The expression was as if looking at a group of dead people, indescribably bloodthirsty and indifferent. This look is extremely rude, and it makes him only feel afraid and weak, but he can't have the courage to look at him.

He quickly looked away, just urging the horses to get out of the sight of these people quickly.

These people in the Tiger Mercenary Regiment are also some ruthless people who eat with knives and mouths! But when facing these dozen or so people, they can't even mention that fierce and brave heart.

After walking away from these dozen people, he dared to breathe a sigh of relief. Most people found that the cold sweat on their palms was secreting.

Everyone secretly guessed in their hearts, what kind of people are these? The murderous aura is so heavy? How many people do you have to kill? In order to bring out such a heavy killing aura?

It's not that these people in the Golden Sword King are cowardly, it's just these dozen people brought by Chu Chongshan. Each of them is an elite who has been killed in the sea of corpses and blood, and has experienced countless life-and-death battles, and they can all be called iron-blooded elites!

Which of the people who have been killed from life and death has not killed countless people? How can these ordinary guards withstand the murderous aura that this body carries?

Even Chen Shao'an was somewhat suppressed on the side, and couldn't help but appease the tumultuous war horse. He didn't notice it, but Shi Jiu was safe and sound, and he was not even affected by his seat.

After the car team of Luo's Commercial Bank was finished, Chen Shaoan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. I couldn't help but look at Chu Chongshan's subordinates with admiration.

After the Luo caravan walked out of three or four miles, Chu Chongshan waved his hand, and everyone was on the road again.

Since this little episode, the people of the Golden Sword King walked in front, and they were much quieter, and they were no longer as noisy as just now. No one would dare to look back and laugh at everyone, they were really a little afraid of these knights in their hearts.

The morning passed peacefully, and I couldn't see the outline of Beizhen anymore.

There was a vast field ahead, and Chu Chongshan and these people were coming to the grassland for the first time.

The world is wide and vast, looking at the tender yellow grass buds that have just emerged on the grassland, and looking at the blue sky with a few white clouds.

I took a deep breath of the air with the fragrance of tender grass, and everyone's hearts were full of pride.

I just want to gallop and howl loudly in order to relieve the happy feeling in my chest! Even the dozen or so people who always smile uncontrollably on weekdays, the corners of each person's mouth unconsciously put on their smiles.

The grassland in early spring is full of life!

In the evening, the Luo caravan in front camped to rest. Chu Chongshan also ordered to camp, and the distance between the two groups could be more than two miles.

The Locke caravan lit several fires, and a group of guards laughed and began to prepare dinner.

Away from the Burning Sun Empire, Chu Chongshan asked his subordinates to unload the things they were carrying. Someone opened the backpack, and Shi Jiu saw that the things these people were carrying, except for the dry food, turned out to be blade armor.

Seeing Shi Jiu watching from the side, these people didn't shy away from it, they just smiled at him, and some people took out grease to maintain the armor blade.

Someone had already lit a bonfire, and a marching iron pot had been set up on it. When the water boiled in the pot, he threw the jerky he was carrying into it.

After a while, there was a burst of rich meat aroma.

Chu Chongshan first put two bowls into the carriage, although everyone lined up to get food later. Exactly like in the barracks, not a single person made a noise.

Shi Jiu and Chen Shaoan also took food. Shi Jiu took a bite of the dry cake and drank a sip of the hot broth before saying to Chen Shao'an: "Third uncle, have you seen it?" Everyone in the world has rumored that General Tiebi is extremely strict in governing the army, look at these people led by Brother Chu, although they are not in the army at this time, but this military discipline has not been relaxed at all!"

"Well! It is said that the late Marshal Lin ruled the army with grace, and the sergeants under his command felt his kindness, and everyone used their lives! But this Tie Da General ruled the army with strictness, and the sergeants were afraid of his might, and no one dared not use his life! Although both of them are famous generals and strange materials that are not born in the world, there is still a difference between the superior and the low! If I want to join the army, I am willing to enter Lin Shuai's account, but I don't want to enter the army like General Tie!

"Didn't you promise Miss Helian that she would go to General Tie's account?"

"Who...... Who said that? I mean to go back to the army! And you didn't say you were going to General Tie?"

Chu Chongshan arranged a police post, and when he saw that the two of them were chatting, he walked over. Chu Chongshan took two marching blankets and handed them to Chen Shao'an and Shi Jiu, and then sat down cross-legged.

"Brother Chen, at this speed of travel, it is estimated that we will have to reach Guqi Mountain in a few days?"

"We've just been on a day's journey, and it's estimated that we'll have seven or eight days at the earliest! We've just entered the steppe now, and this is the edge of Khan's sphere of influence, so let's just enter the steppe! After walking for half a day, at noon tomorrow, we can almost see the Guli River on the grassland. Walking along the banks of the Guli River, when you can meet the nomadic herdsmen of the grassland, you will actually enter the grassland. Enter the grassland and walk along the river, and when you reach the source of the Guli River, you can see the Guqi Mountain. "

"Oh! That's good! It's been almost half a month since we came out of Tiebi Pass, and Doctor Yao said that the general's poison can be suppressed for two months without attacking. If everything goes well, when I find Zu Longzhi and bring it back to Tiebi Pass, this time should be enough! Today I feel that this prairie is still quite peaceful, I have always been paying attention, I have not seen anyone who has come to snoop on me, this horse thief will not appear, right?"

"Brother Chu, this has just left the border of the Burning Sun Empire, how can this horse thief be so rampant? After tomorrow, we will be far away from the control of the Burning Sun Empire. Although it entered the control of the southern steppe, it was beyond the reach of the steppe khan! That was the real rampant area of horse thieves. Therefore, everyone should rest well tonight, and the road after tomorrow is the real dangerous road. Shi Jiu said.

Chen Shao'an nodded, "Shi Jiu is right! Everyone have a good rest tonight, Brother Chu! The police posts that you put in the second half of the night have been withdrawn, and Shi Jiu and I will just come to guard the second half of the night!"

"Brother Chen, I'll accompany you too!"

Shi Jiu and Chen Shao'an looked at each other and smiled, "Brother Chu, don't you believe us? You just go to sleep and leave it to us tonight! You have enough spirits, and you will rely on you to dominate the overall situation during the day tomorrow!"

"Well, that's fine! I'll go rest first, and leave everything to the two brothers!"

Chu Chongshan got up and walked not far from the carriage of the Helian sisters, wrapped a blanket in his shirt and went to sleep.

In the second half of the night, Shi Jiu and Chen Shaoan replaced the police posts that had been put before.

Shi Jiu lay in a low-lying place to avoid the spring cold, and his eyes looked around from time to time.

The spring is cold, and there is no shelter on the grassland. The second half of the night is the coldest time of the day.

Shi Jiu also felt a little cold wrapped in a felt blanket, so he silently practiced the set of exercises he had practiced since he was a child. After a few weeks of transportation, I didn't feel a trace of cold on my body, and my ears and eyes felt more intelligent.

The grassland at night is silent, except for the faint sound of the spring breeze blowing the dead grass, the sound of wild mice foraging on the grassland, and the sound of several guard posts of the Luo caravan changing the guard can be faintly heard in the distance.

Shi Jiu secretly thought to himself while guarding the surroundings: "I have been practicing this Proud Heaven Technique for fifteen years, and I have already practiced to the top of the fifth level. I am not lazy in my own hard work, but I have been staying in this fifth level realm for almost three years, when will I be able to break through to the sixth level? Third Uncle Lu once said that this Proud Heaven Trick can only be regarded as stepping into the ranks of real masters when I have entered the sixth level! If I don't enter the sixth level, I will not enter the nineteenth level! You must not go back to the Central Plains!"

When Shi Jiu was contemplating and meditating, there was a sudden "click" sound in front of him, as if something had been stepped on?

Someone!

The sound was definitely not the sound of a hare and rat on the grassland, it should be the sound of someone stepping on a dead branch and grass stem.

The place where the sound came from was dozens of paces away from him.

Shi Jiu hid his breath, and his body slid quickly on the grass like a snake, and he didn't even make a sound along the way.

Gradually, he got closer and closer to that place.

Not far ahead, a thin figure was squatting there. It was the fourth watch, and the moon was setting, and it was pitch black all around, with only some faint starlight.

Faintly, I saw the man squat for a while, slowly straighten up, and look around for a while, before he lightly approached the camp.

"This man is sneaky! Could it be a horse thief's sentry scout?

Shi Jiu thought secretly in his heart.

Unaware of anyone nearby, the figure was cautiously sneaking towards the camp.

was about to pass by Shi Jiu's side, Shi Jiu's legs tensed, his body bounced up from the grass, and he threw himself towards the man with open arms.

When the man heard the sound of the wind in Shi Jiu's clothes, he was startled at first, and then his reaction speed was extremely astonishing!

Shi Jiu hurriedly paused his momentum, and his right hand was palmed towards the man's elbow.

With a gesture, he turned to the man's left side and dodged a kick from his left leg.

He took advantage of the momentum and half-hugged the man's back and waist, and his arms were ready to throw the man to the ground.

The man reacted so quickly that he felt his arms around his waist and threw his head back, a head hammer slamming into the stone face.

It's just that this person is a little thin, and the top of his head can only be smashed into Shi Jiu's mouth and nose.

Shi Jiuyi turned his head and faced, and he took this blow.

This hammer is not small! It is smashing at the lower end of his mouth and nose, smashing his cheeks and numbness, and shaking his eyes a little!

Tears and nosebleeds poured out uncontrollably, and Shi Jiu's heart was ruthless, and he gritted his teeth. With a single blow of his arms, he threw the man down, and then twisted his waist and rode the man underneath him.

Shi Jiu twisted the man's hands and pressed the man under him. Suddenly, I heard a coquettish snort, which seemed to be somewhat familiar.

My eyes were blurred by tears, and I couldn't see the face of the person under me clearly! I tilted my head and wiped the tears on my shoulder, and when I took a closer look through the moonlight, I couldn't help but be surprised! I was stunned!

This person turned out to be the charming Miss Helian Er!

Miss Helian Er was ridden by Shi Jiu at this time, and his hands were crushed by him! Even his arms and elbows were pressed on his chest.

Shi Jiu only felt that the place he pressed was soft and swollen, but he had never experienced it.

The current posture of the two is very embarrassing, this is really a physical entanglement, skin to skin, and a few seams!

Moreover, what Shi Jiu pressed was the chest of Miss Helian Er, and he saw that Miss Helian Er's face was flushed, her big tears were shining, and her small mouth was flat, and she was about to cry.

Miss Helian Er's snow-white teeth bit her lower lip tightly, tears flashed in her eyes! Her eyes glared at Shi Jiu fiercely, and she couldn't stop making a sound, her body writhing desperately and struggling.

"How could it be her? how could she be here? she ...... "

Shi Jiu was at a loss, and his hands subconsciously pressed on Miss Helian Er's arms.
