Volume 1 Heavenly Fortune Martial Mansion Chapter 56 One after another
The people who sensed the poison of the arrows immediately entered a state of combat readiness.
At this time, Huang Mantian had already taken out his blade and swept his gaze in the direction where the arrow was flying.
"Old Man Cheng, you hurry up and take your people now, follow the established route, and don't delay for a moment! ”
After copying the guy, after leaving such a sentence to the old man, he swept in the direction where the arrow was flying, "The back is covering the caravan, and the front team is coming with me!"
As soon as the words fell, the five people in the front team immediately set off, and swept towards the direction where the arrow flew with Huang Mantian.
At this time, Qin Feng looked around, and he could see that there were several people fleeing in the distance.
Qin Feng had a slight doubt in his heart.
It stands to reason that none of them should appear in groups, and there are only three or two people who escaped, which does not look like a robbery at all, but rather looks like they are here to investigate the situation.
Moreover, this poisonous arrow, after being used once, will no longer have an impact on this caravan.
After all, this is just an ordinary arrow, as long as there are some cultivators, they can easily block it.
Thinking in his heart, Qin Feng followed Huang Mantian's intention and accelerated with the caravan.
After walking out of a mile or two, Huang Mancai caught up.
And after that, Huang Mantian took the team on another route.
"How's it going over there?"
The old man surnamed Cheng asked.
Huang Mantian took a sip of water before replying: "There are only two people left, and one one doesn't know if it's a mouse, and it's gone." ”
As he spoke, Huang Mantian put the kettle aside.
Later, he added: "Since some people have fled, the enemy will definitely come again, so you should all be careful." ”
As he spoke, Huang Mantian quickened his pace and walked to the front of the team.
And Qin Feng was still walking in the middle of the line with the old man named Cheng He.
At this time, Qin Feng also felt a different situation from the game.
His mentality couldn't help but change a little.
After about four hours of walking, the caravan stopped to rest.
And during this break, the old man checked two or three truckloads of goods at random.
After Qin Feng paid a little attention, he didn't look at it anymore, but used the dry food he had prepared.
After resting for about an hour, everyone packed up again and set off again.
This time, the speed of the carriage and horses was a little faster than before.
And this time, everyone is on guard for what's going on.
Finally, two hours after the restart, a man stopped in front of the caravan.
This person was in tattered clothes, his face was yellow and his face was like a withered one, as if he was a victim who had lost his power.
Everyone present relaxed their vigilance against him, but Cheng He's expression was a little dignified.
Qin Feng paid attention to Cheng He's expression, but he didn't say much.
And the 'victim' bypassed the Huangsha mercenary group from the side of the carriage and horses, and slowly walked in front of Cheng He.
"Rich merchant, give me some water and dry food, I have been walking here for more than five days. ”
There was a hint of pleading in his words.
But Qin Feng looked at him, and faintly felt that there was something wrong with his tone.
Cheng He didn't speak, but took out some food and water from the side and sent them away.
However, after the caravan set off again, Cheng He inexplicably broke away from the caravan.
When he caught up again in about twenty minutes, Qin Feng also felt that he seemed to be injured by relying on the intuition of the shopkeeper of the original medicine shop.
But he has behaved very ordinarily, and basically people can't see any clues.
Qin Feng was suspicious in his heart, but he still didn't ask more.
After all, knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing.
Time is the sunset in the west, and there is still the sunset in the east above the sky, but the west is already dotted with stars.
It was as if light and darkness were clashing, splitting the sky in two.
It's hard to see such a scene on earth.
Soon, however, the night sky completely crushed the afterglow of the setting sun.
Bear!
Boom!
And at this time, behind the surrounding sand dunes, more than a dozen lighted torches suddenly appeared.
And these fires also surrounded this caravan.
"There are enemies!"
With Huang Mantian's roar, his ten mercenaries copied the guys one after another.
At the same time, on the top of the hill, the thieves with torches also came madly with their knives and surrounded the caravan.
"Little ones, watch out for torches, don't burn anything valuable!"
Not far away, on the hill, a man with a six-fold body was commanding these thieves.
All of a sudden, the whole scene was also a mess.
The people of the Huangsha Mercenary Group are fighting frantically, and it should be because of their strength, so although there are many of those thieves, there will be no incident.
As for the five entourages of the caravan and Cheng He, they were standing on the side of a certain carriage and horse, in the protective circle formed by the people of the Huangsha Mercenary Group.
Qin Feng, on the other hand, stood outside the circle, and together with several other mercenaries, set out to protect several truckloads of goods.
After a stalemate of about seven or eight minutes, the Huangsha mercenary group barely opened an exit from the encirclement of the thieves, and the caravan immediately rushed out.
After the caravan hurried out of the distance of three or four miles, the mercenaries in charge of the broken rear were able to shake off the enemy and follow the team.
However, after that, the group changed their route and walked out of a distance of four or five miles before they really stopped.
By this time, it was already late at night.
The exhausted crowd also fell asleep one after another.
And Qin Feng was caught in the hidden cultivation.
More than an hour had passed, but in the silence of the night, Qin Feng was woken up by a footstep.
Qin Feng got up cautiously, suppressed his breath and looked secretly, only to see a figure leaving the caravan in the moonlight, walking in a direction in the desert.
It seems to be ......
"Old Man Cheng?"
Qin Feng had a trace of suspicion in his heart, but after thinking about it, these goods were Cheng He's own, and there was no need for him to collude with thieves.
After letting go of his worries a little, Qin Feng withdrew his gaze.
However, intentionally or unintentionally, Qin Feng's eyes still fell on a certain carriage.
That carriage, Qin Feng always felt a little strange.
After getting on the road, Qin Feng found that the ruts of this carriage were far less deep than those of the others, and the horses pulling this carriage were also brisk than the other horses.
If it is said that the carriage is not carrying goods but feed, it is still reasonable.
But every time the carriage stopped, no matter how Cheng He randomly checked the goods, there was also this carriage in the queue.
And when he was in distress just now, Cheng He and the five entourages were also standing around the carriage.
In his heart, Qin Feng didn't come forward to check, if he was involved in something bad, it would be terrible.
After that, there was no word for a night.
And that Cheng He also quietly returned to the caravan before dawn, when everyone hadn't gotten up yet.
Then, at about seven o'clock, the caravan set off again.
But only half an hour after the departure of the caravan, the caravan was again confronted by thieves.
After another vicious fight, the caravan barely escaped.
But this time, the Huangsha Mercenary Group fell again.
At this time, including Huang Mantian, there were only nine people left in the Huangsha Mercenary Group.
It was only at noon that the crowd rested.
But as soon as he sat down, the thief reappeared.
The crowd had no choice but to leave again.
Along the way, there were thieves almost everywhere, so that the people of the caravan and the Huangsha mercenary group were constantly complaining.
"How did this thief become so many all at once?"
"Yes, and every time it's a thief from a different force. ”
"It's as if the entire Qianling Monument has an enmity with us, and they all know our whereabouts. ”
After a rare rest, everyone began to complain.
Every time he encountered an enemy, Huang Mantian would change his course every time.
But in the constant change of route, the speed of everyone's progress is inevitably slowed down.
It's the third day now, but it's only been a little more than a day.
Listening to everyone's complaints, Qin Feng didn't say a word.
He sat on the ground, looking at the ground in front of him, chewing on his dry food one bite at a time.
I always feel that this trip is not as simple as he imagined, or what he sees.
After hesitating, he still stood up, walked to Cheng He's side and sat down.
"Old man Cheng, since we have been walking all the way, there are some things I still want to figure out. ”
After Qin Feng sat down, he whispered to Old Man Cheng.
When Old Man Cheng heard this, after a slight pause, he asked, "What's the matter?"
Qin Feng said, "What happened last night, can you give me a reasonable explanation?"
At this moment's questioning, Qin Feng's tone was already not like a young man who was only fifteen years old.
He asked these questions, but also so that no matter what the road ahead, he would be able to count points in his heart.
Whether it's good or bad, Cheng He must have something to hide.
"Last night?"
Cheng He looked at Qin Feng, and there were obviously a lot of things hidden in his cloudy old eyes.
After being silent for a while, Cheng He still shook his head.
"Young man, you may be too worried, what else can I do as a businessman?"
Cheng He smiled, and then said, "But I promise you, you will definitely be able to reach your destination safely." ”
Although he did not give an answer, the latter sentence was like a guarantee.
Qin Feng looked at him, and naturally did not doubt this in his heart.
Long before he found them, Qin Feng had already seen the cultivation of everyone here through the system interface.
And this Cheng He's cultivation is the fivefold of the Ning Yuan Realm.
With such a cultivation, even if he walked away with the caravan alone, there would probably not be any big problems.
But Qin Feng's mind turned, and he asked again.
"Can you tell me what's in that car?"
