Chapter 924: The Hong Family
As Han Chong said, the journey after passing through the Ten Thousand Snake Gorge was quite smooth, and in the past few days, except for some occasional small troubles, it did not slow down the speed of the convoy, and in these few days, the so-called Tianbei City was also getting closer and closer to the martial arts.
In the past few days, after recuperation and pranayama, Xiao Yan's strength has gradually recovered seventy or eighty percent, and the wounds in his body have also recovered quickly under the dual effects of fighting qi and pills.
However, although his strength gradually recovered, Xiao Yan still did not show it, he had a good impression of these honest men in this team, and he didn't want to make them feel in awe of him because of the exposure of his strength, and he seemed unfamiliar, and then added some other things to the faint friendship in the past few days.
With Xiao Yan's current strength, if he wants to hide his aura, in this convoy, even Han Xue is probably difficult to detect, not to mention, maybe because of the little space power in his body, if Xiao Yan is hiding his strength now, let alone Han Xue, even if it is some Douhuang peaks, and even Dou Zong powerhouses, it is a little difficult to determine their true strength level.
However, although Xiao Yan felt that he was extremely well hidden, in the past few days, he found that Han Xue's attitude towards himself seemed to be better, the work in the team, after she ordered Han Chong, no one let Xiao Yan do the rough work, for this special treatment, Xiao Yan also smiled bitterly in his heart, a woman's intuition, is it really so terrible? He was confident that he had never exposed the slightest trace, but Han Xue still faintly seemed to notice something, and occasionally looked at Xiao Yan's eyes, and a faint doubt and contemplation flashed.
Moreover, when Han Xue is free, she often appears in front of Xiao Yan, and then chats with him casually, but the content of the chat is to secretly inquire about Xiao Yan's identity and origin, of course, with Xiao Yan's experience over the years, it is naturally impossible to show any horses and feet in her hands as a girl.
Such a scene made Xiao Yan feel helpless, and he could only try to leave the distance between himself and Han Xue as much as possible, so as not to be really discovered by this sensitive woman.
In a hurry, Han Xue's continuous temptation and speculation quickly passed, and on the fifth day of camping, "a messenger bird painted with the Han family crest flew over from the direction of Tianbei City.
Taking the letter paper carried by the messenger bird from the hand of a guard, Han Xue slowly spread it out, her beautiful eyes swept, but her pretty face slowly became cold, and there was even a flash of anger in her eyes.
Looking at the change in Han Xue's face, the camp that was still laughing became a lot quieter, and everyone stood up and looked at Han Xue in the center. "Miss, what's going on?" Han Chong asked in a deep voice. "It's a letter from within the family, and the letter says that the Hong family plans to make a move against the Han family recently, so let's be careful. Han Xueyu's hands clenched, and her voice was cold. "Damn, these bastards again. Hearing the word Hong family, bursts of angry scolding suddenly sounded around him. "What do they want to do this time?" Han Chong frowned, and said martial arts.
Han Xue's eyelashes blinked slightly, and she said lightly, "The old immortal of the Hong family wants me to marry Hong Chen with my sister, but the ultimate goal is to annex my Han family and become the real overlord of Tianbei City." ”
Hearing this, the faces of many young people in the convoy were gloomy, and it was obvious that the conditions proposed by the Hong family made them extremely angry. "Damn, the Hong family really thinks that my Han family is a persimmon that can be pinched by others? Han Chong said angrily.
For Han Chong's anger, Han Xueqiao's face was still cold, and her beautiful eyes moved slightly, but she suddenly paused on the black-robed young man sitting next to the fire, but the latter didn't seem to hear the words here, so he just lowered his head and threw the fire, seeing this, Han Xue's willow eyebrows tufted slightly, her eyes turned away, and she said coldly: "Tomorrow is going to enter the territory of Tianbei City, everyone be careful." "Yes!" everyone was neat, and they should drink martial arts.
Han Xue nodded, and then she didn't know who she was looking at, and turned around and entered her tent directly.
With the disappearance of Han Xueqian's shadow, everyone in the camp sat back by the fire again, their faces were flickering under the light of the fire, the so-called Hong family, in their opinion, was more threatening than the demon snake Xia Mang. "Brother Han, is the Hong family very strong?"
The quiet and depressing atmosphere lasted for a long time, and Xiao Yan, who was concentrating on the fire, finally straightened up, stretched his waist, and said with a smile.
"If you really want to talk about it, the Hong family is probably the strongest family in Tianbei City, even if it is my Han family, it is slightly inferior to it, and most importantly, this Hong family has some relationship with the Wind Thunder Pavilion, and the most outstanding Hong Chen of his generation is the person of the Wind Thunder Pavilion, and he is quite valued in it. Han Chong sighed and said with a wry smile: "This Hong family is only able to use this big tree to be able to increase its prestige and influence in just a few years, after all, in the entire northern region of Zhongzhou, the Wind Thunder Pavilion is also considered to be a first-class force among the best, and my Han family is too far behind it." "Wind Thunder Pavilion?" Hearing this familiar name again, Xiao Yan's eyes also flashed with a touch of consternation, this world is really a coincidence, and it is really a coincidence
"What about the Wind Thunder Pavilion? Damn, the Hong family really dares to do it, even if Lao Tzu can't beat it, he will kill a few of them before he dies. Beside the fire, a young guard said with a look of anger on his face. Han Chong didn't take these young people's angry words to heart, patted Xiao Yan's shoulder and said, "Brother Xiao Yan, it seems that the Han family is about to be uneasy, when you get to Tianbei City, I will let the little slave give you a sum of money, and you can leave on your own, and the seller will be involved." Xiao Yan smiled, noncommittal,
"Okay, let's rest early, keep a more vigil, and give me a bright spot tomorrow, and when I return to the family, it should be safe." Han Chong sighed, stood up, waved his hand, and then turned to leave, leaving the people full of anger to fire at the fire.
Looking at the somewhat tired back, Xiao Yan flicked his fingers, and a bamboo firewood in his hand flew into the fire with a clatter, and then went deep into the ground like an arrow. ”
Clapping his hands, Xiao Yan also got up, said hello to everyone, and slowly walked back to his tent, and when he entered the tent, he sighed lightly and muttered to himself. "Alas. Human affection is really heavy,""
The sun is shining, the sky is cloudless, and the beams of light, with high temperatures, continue to pour down, in this hot weather, even the woods on both sides of the road are a little slightly drooping. On the wide road, a convoy of horses galloped wildly, bringing up dust and smoke along the way. "Everyone, pay attention, you're about to enter the Tianbei City Pool!"
In the convoy, there was a sudden loud shout, everyone's hearts were tight, looking up at a guiding stone tablet at the end of the road, the palm of the hand couldn't help but slowly touch the weapon behind the back, the palm that pulled the rope, but also slightly sweaty.
The convoy roared down the road like an angry bison, and in just a few minutes, it approached the guiding stone. Whoa!
At the moment when the convoy had just rushed past the stone monument, the sharp sound of breaking the wind suddenly resounded, and then countless arrows burst out from the woods on both sides, enveloping the entire convoy and moving into the martial arts.
The sudden arrows surprised many people, but fortunately, they had been prepared, and one after another erupted with fighting energy, blocking all the arrows. "Hehe, it seems that I have been prepared for a long time, but unfortunately..."
The sound of laughter slowly came out of the woods, and immediately a large number of black shadows quickly poured out, blocking all the roads leading to Tianbei City, and what made Han Chong and the others care the most were the two old men at the front of the group of black shadows. The two of them wore a pale red robe, and on the chest of the robe, there was an identical red badge. "People from the Hong family. Looking at the red badge, Han Chong and the others' pupils suddenly shrank violently. "Hehe, Miss Han Xue, please come out, the old man and the two are here, but you. Ignoring Han Chong's guards, the two old men stared at the vehicle where Han Xue was and said with a light smile. "Crunch..."
The car door slowly opened, and Han Xue, who had an indifferent face, walked down slowly, staring at the two old men with cold eyes, and sneered: "I didn't expect that in order to catch my little woman, I was able to work Hong Mu, Hong Lie, the two elders, it's really an honor." ”
said this in his mouth, but han xue's heart gradually sank a lot, these two elders of the hong family, their strength is around the four-star douhuang, they are stronger than that xia mang, and now the two of them are shooting together, today. "I'm afraid it's really a catastrophe. "Don't say this nonsense, the old man has to act on orders, you, come with us!" Hong Lie, who was expressionless, glanced at Han Xue and said. "Dream!" Han Xue's eyes flashed with coldness, and as soon as he held his jade hand, a long sword flashed out. "Stubborn. ”
Seeing Han Xue's stubborn resistance, that Hong Lie shook his head, a touch of impatience flashed in his eyes, and as soon as he stepped forward, he appeared directly in front of the former, waving his palm, a strong blazing wind, with an oppressive aura, directly enveloping all Han Xue's retreats.
Looking at Hong Lie, who moved around with all his strength as soon as he made a move, Han Xue's cheeks also showed a paleness, and then he bit his silver teeth, and Yiyu also burst out. "Bang!"
The palms touched, and the strong wind that diffused suddenly shook the people around them and hurriedly retreated, and Han Xuejiao's body was like a kite with a broken string, and she was pressing for more than a dozen steps before she could stabilize her martial arts.
"Being able to pick up the old man Yiyu, you can be regarded as having some ability, no wonder you can make the young master take a fancy to it. Hong Lie's body didn't move at all, he glanced at Han Xue who was retreating, said lightly, and then stepped again, and walked in front of the latter, the wind howled, and continued to attack the martial arts.
Feeling Hong Lie's more ferocious offensive than before, Han Xue's cheeks also showed a touch of poignant despair, facing the Douhuang powerhouse, she had no intention of resisting at all...
The palm wind roared, but just as it was about to fall on Han Xue's body, an invisible force suddenly emerged, and with a bang, the fierce palm wind was easily dissolved, and the remaining power also shook it back a few steps.
The sudden change made everyone stunned, and Han Xue, after being stunned, suddenly turned her head and locked on the carriage where Xiao Yan was with her beautiful eyes. "Alas, bullying the young with the old, can be so justifiable, at this age, they have all cultivated to the skin..."
Everyone was stunned, and a helpless voice sounded slowly, but this time, this voice was clear and powerful, and it was no longer the old ping tune from last time... (Today's fourth watch, the first watch has arrived!)
