Chapter 532: The Turtle in the Urn

The next day, a group of men and horses left the capital and traveled west. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

There were only about a dozen people in this team, but there were dozens of carriages, and there seemed to be some goods on them, but unfortunately they were covered by black cloth and could not be seen clearly.

This team of people was naturally Fu Ran and his party who were entrusted by Shang Yao to transport the new tea to Huacheng.

Accompanying Fu Ran were Song Cheng and Zhao Lian, except for these two, the rest of the people were nurses hired by the Chamber of Commerce, but their strength was far inferior to Song Cheng and Zhao Lian.

When he learned that there was Fu Ran in this delivery, Song Cheng was extremely happy, the first few times he escorted the goods for the merchant were robbed, which made Song Cheng lose face, and when he heard that the merchant was going to hire him again, he immediately refused, if it wasn't for the merchant port saying that he only needed him to cooperate with the escort, he would not agree.

He knew Fu Ran's identity, and he also had an idea of his strength, with such a person leading the team, presumably those robbers would not dare to do anything.

Sitting on the red horse, Song Cheng and Fu Ran were side by side, constantly saying something, this scene fell in the eyes of Zhao Lian who was not far away, his eyes showed contempt, and he couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Nurse Song, I'm new here, and I'm not familiar with the geography here, so I don't know how long it will take to reach Huacheng?" Fu Ran said with a smile.

"Normally, it only takes six or seven days, but because we have a lot of goods escorted this time, I'm afraid it will take an extra day or two. While speaking, Song Cheng glanced back at the long queue of carriages behind him, and his heart that was originally relieved was brought up again for some reason.

Sensing that Song Cheng was a little uneasy, Fu Ran stopped and said with a smile: "Nurse Song, just rest assured, with me, those robbers won't dare to mess around after eating leopard gall." ”

Song Cheng smiled and nodded, as for whether he was really relieved, only he knew it.

Thousands of catties of new tea, the quantity is quite a lot, it took dozens of carriages, this is just finished, and it looks like a long dragon from a distance.

Such a procession naturally attracted the attention of others on the official road, but when they saw the word "Shang" on the flag planted on the carriage, they all showed a playful look.

This merchant is really not giving up, he has been robbed many times, but he still has to escort the goods, and I don't know if he will be robbed this time.

"Fu Ran, there will be a fork in the road for more than 100 miles, which route shall we choose?" Song Cheng asked.

Hearing this, Fu Ran spread out the map, there is indeed a fork in the road more than 100 miles away, no matter which route you take, you can reach Huacheng, but one of them is an official road, and the other is a rugged road.

It stands to reason that escorting so many goods is the most correct choice to take the official road, but Song Cheng hopes that Fu Ran can choose the rugged road, although this will delay the journey, but it is safer.

The official road is smooth, and there are many pedestrians coming and going, so the team naturally attracts attention, but the rugged road is different, like a spider's web, and in the dense forest, there are many forks in the road, so that such a team of people and horses are not conspicuous when they are thrown in it.

Putting away the map, Fu Ran said with a smile: "Take the official road, the official road is fast, although the mountain road is hidden, but it is too delayed, we are already slow now, if we take the mountain road, I am afraid it will take half a month to arrive." ”

Hearing this, Song Cheng sighed in his heart, but hurriedly said yes.

Fu Ran is not Song Cheng, Song Cheng can not care if he delays for a few days, but it is different for Fu Ran, the task time is only one month in total, and now a few days have passed, if he wastes time on this, how can he have much time to go to the Wenshui Empire?

This is also the reason why Fu Ran is not completely sure and still has to deliver this goods.

He can now be sure that Zhao Lian is one of the robbers, as well as the little guy, but he has not yet investigated who the third person is, and he doesn't know who is the eyeliner in the Shang Mansion.

During the day, Fu Ran and his party hurried, and at night, they stopped to rest.

In the past three days, Zhao Lian had no intention of making a move, and Fu Ran was not surprised by this, no matter how he said it, it was also a Soul Realm, and he was also a student of the Eastern Academy, without all preparations, Zhao Lian and the others would not take risks.

If Zhao Lian didn't do anything all the time, Fu Ran would be happy, and then tell Shang Yao what he knew, and the rest would have nothing to do with him.

But Zhao Lian won't do this, this night, he finally started.

At night, Fu Ran lay on the tree, his eyes closed, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.

In the woods dozens of zhang away from Fu Ran, a bright light flickered, and if you looked closely, you would find that this bright light was a long arrow.

There is a green liquid on top of the arrow, and at a glance you know that it is highly poisonous.

And this arrow is facing the sleeping Fu Ran at the moment.

The one holding the bow and crossbow was a lean man, dressed in black, who looked like a man, who had been lurking here for a long time and had not moved, not because he was not sure, but because he had not been reminded to do so.

"Are you finally going to do it?"

Fu Ran, who was in a false sleep, naturally felt that something was wrong, although he couldn't sense the person who was secretly hiding with a bow and crossbow facing him, but he felt the change in the atmosphere.

There was a hint of cold smell in the air, although Zhao Lian seemed to be on duty at night, but his eyes were aimed at the place where Fu Ran was from time to time.

Suddenly, Zhao Lian waved his hand, and the people who were sleeping not far from him got up one after another and drew their scimitars.

Shout!

The sound of breaking wind sounded, and in the dark night, a black shadow shot towards Fu Ran at an extremely fast speed.

Burst!

The sound of the long arrow piercing into the sound did not sound, and when the long arrow was no more than a foot away from Fu Ran, it was held firmly in his hand.

It was only at this time that the eyelids slowly raised, his expression did not change, and he glanced at Zhao Lian indifferently.

"I thought you would keep holding back and not making a move, didn't you say that as long as you don't kill people with the goods?" Fu Ran said with a smile.

Zhao Lian's face was slightly gloomy, he suddenly thought of something, chuckled, and said: "I thought about it in advance, and now it seems that you are really not so easy to kill, we do not kill as long as the goods are delivered, but you are an exception." ”

"Can you tell me why?" Fu Ran asked.

Zhao Lian spread his hands and said, "Although it seems to me that you are a dying person, it doesn't matter if you know, but I don't like to do indifferent things the most, so you should go and ask the king of Hades!"

"With the two of you Sect Xuan Realm and these people, you can kill me?" Fu Ran sneered, his gaze swept over the nurses holding scimitars, and then looked at the black-clothed man in the dark.

The man in black was noticed by Fu Ran at the moment of his shot, and he hadn't been discovered by him at such a distance, if he didn't guess wrong, it should be the little guy in the restaurant, this person's Zong Xuan Realm strength, plus Zhao Lian, is only two Zong Xuan Realm, as for the others, Fu Ran didn't take it to heart.

"If I want to deal with you, naturally these people will not come. Zhao Lian's voice fell, and a black shadow suddenly attacked in the distance, and the speed was so fast that it took a few breaths.

Glancing at the person who came, Fu Ran frowned, he had thought about everyone, and the only one who did not suspect this person was the only one who did not doubt him.

"I was thinking at the time, who was the eyeliner in the Shang Mansion, but I didn't expect it to be you. Looking at the comer, Fu Ran said in a deep voice.

Although the other party is masked with a black cloth, the breath is not wrong.

The man in black took off the black cloth and revealed a rough face, which was the commercial port.

Fu Ran had suspected all the subordinates in the Shang Mansion, and even Mrs. Sun was suspected by him for a moment, but he didn't expect that it was actually a commercial port.

Shangbu is Shang Yao's sibling, ostensibly dedicated to business, if he does such a thing, no one will believe it, but the truth is often the opposite.

"It's because you didn't think of it that you died here. Shangbu said expressionlessly.

"Do you think I'm going to die here, it's up to you?" Fu Ran spoke, in his opinion, although the other party has three Sect Xuan Realms, plus more than ten Spirit Xuan Realms and Yuan Xuan Realms, it may be a little difficult to deal with him, compared to the other party, he also understands this truth.

If it is against an ordinary Soul Realm, these powers are sufficient, but it is impossible for Shang Bu not to know that he is not an ordinary Soul Realm, but a Soul Realm from the East Courtyard of Qingfeng Academy.

"Plus me, is it enough?" A show voice came, and the moment he heard this, Fu Ran's face sank, and he didn't expect that this person was also involved in this matter.

Fu Ran didn't speak, staring at the woman who appeared, his heart sank, he didn't expect this person to hide so deeply, he usually looked like just a woman in the Yuan Xuan Realm, but the aura exuded at this moment was even above Zhao Lian, even the commercial port seemed to be a little weaker, and there was already a faint meaning of the Soul Xuan Realm.

This woman turned out to be Mrs. Sun.

The four sects of the Xuan Realm, this kind of strength is enough to threaten Fu Ran.

"Shangbu, you think you're smart, haven't you thought about why you added the matter of transporting goods when you issued the mission?" another voice came, and the moment this voice came, the faces of everyone present changed.
