There was no fire all night, and the dry food that everyone ate was filled with cold water.

After feeding the horses, the dart masters kept guards in turn as usual, and the others sprinkled a circle of anti-insect and snake-repellent powder around them, and then sat back to sleep and rested, still holding weapons in their arms.

This night, the wild beasts in the distance roared constantly, and the women and children were terrified, and they could not sleep in the first half of the night, but everything went unexpectedly well.

The sky is still hazy, but the sky is clear overhead, and the stars are dense, and it is estimated that it is a rare good weather. The dart masters began to pack their bags, feed and drink the horses, and even wrapped their hooves in fur and cotton cloth, while they took the opportunity to eat something more. However, everyone was silently orderly and orderly. Apparently they have their own set of rules to follow when they go out on a mission. Under the influence of the dart masters, the Zhang family was much faster, but everyone was asked not to go far.

And not far from everyone, there was a small group of passers-by who were learning about Suosuo's activities.

Last night, this little road-byside also followed them, resting not far away, and took the opportunity to get closer again. The dart masters found out about their move, but did not expel them again, but still did not allow them to join.

"When we cross the black stone stream for a while, the team spreads out, the sword is in the sheath, and the gun is in the sleeve, all wake up, and don't speak loudly!

The carriages pulled a little distance, and the procession stretched two or three times as long, and the dart masters took advantage of the darkness to quickly cross the black stone stream.

On the carriage in the middle, the thick futon was spread, soft, very warm, Yueyue and Xiao Zhang Hui fell into a deep sleep again, very sweet. Zhao Lanlan lay on her side with her eyes open. I couldn't sleep for a while. Xu Qing leaned cross-legged on the side of the carriage door, separated by a curtain. Zhang Weidong sat in front of the frame with his back to her. Early in the morning, he kept the flask in his hand.

Xu Qing couldn't see the man's back, but he could smell his smell and feel unspeakably at ease. However, she still has a kind of uneasiness, this man is always shrouded in a layer of fog, as if she has never seen it clearly, for fear that when she wakes up, the man will be gone.

Zhang Weidong's origin. Xu Qing heard Zhao mention it privately.

Zhang Weidong was found by the village river in Zhao Village, Qingguo, and was seriously injured, with a long wound on his chest that was deep and visible to the bones and viscera, perhaps from the enemy. But the strange thing is that in just two or three days, Zhang Weidong can go to work in the field.

Although Zhao didn't see the wound again, and he didn't know how it recovered, he could work in the field like an ordinary person. This in itself is a miracle.

Xu Qing once speculated that perhaps Zhang Weidong was from Qingguo or Qi. Qi and Qing were at war, and Wulin County and Ren County were located on the border between the two countries, and it was not only the sergeants who were affected by the war. There are also a large number of people. He could be a sergeant or a commoner. However, it seems that he never said his origins. Xu Qing didn't want to force it. I didn't ask again.

What's more important than having a man around? She's a very smart woman.

"What, can't you sleep?"

"Yes!"

"Your home is in the Great Qin Kingdom. Why did you escape?"

Xu Qing's face changed slightly, and then he said, "I was rebellious at the beginning." I thought less, thinking that I had found someone who could be entrusted with my life, but my family did not agree, and I was forced to marry, so I eloped to the country of Qi. I thought that after a while, I would wait for my parents' anger to disappear and go back, but I didn't expect a lot of things to happen on the road, and I also saw the true face of a person. ”

"I thought I was ashamed of my parents and family in this life, and I would never see them again, but I didn't expect Qi Guo and Qingguo to be unstable, and I met you, Brother Zhang, again-"

Zhang Weidong said: "It seems that your family is very powerful in the Great Qin State. ”

"My family is a hereditary nobleman of Jingyang County in the Great Qin Kingdom, and when I arrived in my father's generation, I was named a viscount, and the official worshiped the county, only under the county town Taishou-"

"In this way, I married a young lady from an official family, and I am high, hehe. ”

Xu Qing's face was hot, and he said coquettishly: "Brother Zhang, you are laughing again." ”

With such a smile, it seems that Xu Qing's mood is much better, and he is looking forward to going home. For a moment, she longed to grow wings and fly back in an instant.

"Second aunt, it turns out that your family is a big official? Is that a lot of servants? a lot of money, a lot of land? Just like the big landlord in the town? Then when I get there, can I still call you second aunt? Do you want to work?" Zhao Lanlan couldn't help but ask.

Xu Qing glanced at the man's direction and said with a smile: "Of course, I married your second uncle and married my husband." As for work, as long as your second uncle agrees, you can do whatever you want!"

"Hehe, it's good, I'm still practicing martial arts, I want to be a woman, walk the rivers and lakes in the future, hoe the strong and help the weak, and do chivalrous justice!"

"Okay, whatever you want—"

The Zhang family's carriage procession entered the mouth of the Black Stone Stream, as if a shadow had been cast, and everyone was silent, and their hearts were beating hard. The man who led the horse riding now also reined in his horse and slowed down, and was not much faster than leading the horse. After a stick of incense, the sky brightened, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief and felt sweaty.

The black stone stream a few miles behind them was like a devouring demon mouth, and they had just come out of it.

"Luckily, we got lucky, and we kept going. However, they all cheered me up and showed me when I was out of the mountains and when I could rest. ”

On horseback, Wang Hai and Chen Hu reminded everyone again, and then returned to their respective positions. Chen Hu and an assistant dart head of the Anyuan Dart Bureau are in the front, and Wang Hai and the deputy dart head of the Zheng Wu Dart Bureau are in the back. Probably because of the intuition of a martial artist, Wang Hai was relatively close to Zhao Erbao and the others.

Seeing that there are more than a dozen boys and girls on foot, they are insisting without saying a word, obviously not just rushing, but refining their bodies and training their hearts. On the side, there are Zhao Falcon and Zhao Hound brothers urging from time to time, which proves this point. The Zhang family is very mysterious, especially Zhao Erbao. If it weren't for the darts, Wang Hai almost couldn't help but ask for a lesson or two several times.

Zhao Gongjian looked at the road ahead and said politely: "Wang Darthead and Chen Darthead are bothered." ”

Wang Hai smiled happily: "Brother Bow and arrow, don't say that, since the dart bureau has collected money, it is appropriate to guard everything." Besides, there are hundreds of dart masters, it's not me who boast about Haikou, as long as it's not a dangerous place like Heishi Stream, the ordinary thieves and mountain bandits come up just to find death. ”

There are hundreds of good dart masters, and among them there are four real martial artists, and the mountain bandits who are generally made up randomly do not have such strong strength.

"By the way, Brother Bow and Arrow, I see that you are very skilled, why don't you go back and learn from each other?" Wang Hai smiled.

Zhao Gongjian immediately shook his head: "No, Wang Darthead, you are a real martial artist, how can I be your opponent? No, no!"

"It's better to be like this—"

Wang Hai couldn't get entangled, so he couldn't fulfill his wish, so he went to entangle Zhao Erbao and Zhao Tiedan. Who knows, the two of them talked less, and they didn't agree to talk. This made Wang Hai depressed, and his hands and feet were itchy, but he could only hold back. It was Zhao Hougou who was eager to try, but was glared at by his father and suddenly wilted.

"Why is it so difficult to find an opponent to fight?" Wang Hai smacked his lips.

"Is it difficult, there should be some martial artists in Green Willow Town, right?" Zhao Gongjian comforted with a smile.

Wang Hai snorted and said, "Yes, not much, except for a few I can't beat, every time I get beaten, the rest don't dare to fight me!"

"What about Chen Dart Head and the two deputy Dart Head?"

"Hehe, go and ask them, do you dare to fight with me?"

A dart master interjected: "We are good at martial arts, and we have almost challenged the martial artists up and down Green Willow Town, and it is common to fail once, two or three times, and eight times out of ten, so we have won the title of a madman!"

Wang Hai smiled proudly, this title is an honor, and it all depends on him.

Zhao Gongjian suddenly gave a thumbs up and praised: "Wang Dart is powerful!"

Xin said, fortunately he did not agree to Wang Hai's request for discussion, otherwise it would be uneasy along the way.

The road in the mountains is not easy to walk, and the dart masters show their weapons and are ready to fight at any time. After more than an hour, there was no obstacle.

The two horses were parallel, and Chen Hu and Yu Deputy Dart of An Yuan Dart Bureau were vigilant in front and on both sides.

"Something is wrong, it smells of blood! Stop immediately and prepare for battle!" Chen Hu shouted loudly, pulled out his weapon, and jumped off his horse.

Warriors are good at land combat and close combat, and horses can only be used for transportation.

"Prepare for battle!"

"Prepare for battle!"

The dart masters shouted one after another, raised their shields and raised their swords, forming a defensive battle formation, staring at the jungle on both sides, as if facing a great enemy!

Zhao Erbao and others also followed suit. However, compared with the experienced dart masters who walked the rivers and lakes, they looked a little messy, but they were all close to the two carriages in the middle, and the guards were in the middle.

However, after waiting for a while, there was no movement in the jungle, Wang Hai rode forward to investigate the situation, his ears moved slightly, his eyes were clear, but he was a little puzzled. When he got to the front, he looked around for a moment, then simply dismounted and walked a few steps into the jungle on one side.

"Be careful, don't enter every time!" Yu Deputy Dart Head of the Anyuan Dart Bureau reminded, but Wang Hai ignored it, and after a while, he came out, and his face was not good-looking.

Then he went into the forest on the other side, and came out in the same moment.

Wang Hai said to Chen Hu and Deputy Yu: "A lot of people have died, it seems that they are bandits in ambush, everyone is on guard in place, I need to talk to Doctor Zhang!"

"Okay!" Chen Hu's face changed.

The team stood on guard, and everyone tensed their nerves and tightened their weapons.

Wang Hai rushed to the middle of the team and reported to Zhang Weidong in a low voice.

In front of everyone just now, he didn't say anything specific, and he had reservations. The reality is much more serious than the understatement just made. There were many people in ambush in the forest, as many as hundreds of people, the blood stains had not dried, and they all died in a unique state, on the branches, behind the trees, on the ground, and in the bushes, as if they were staying in place, and they were suddenly attacked and killed, and there was no trace of resistance or struggle.

For more than ten years, except for the snake plague, this time is the most dangerous.

"Being able to kill so many people quietly, and not seeing the wounds, these people are definitely masters! Doctor Zhang, I'm afraid those people are in front, not too far, whether the team rests or continues to move forward, you need to make an idea, but I suggest that you take a rest, it is best to avoid those people." Wang Hai said solemnly. (To be continued.) )
