Chapter 15: Touching the Bandit's Nest
Seeing that Su Wen did not move, Remir and the other adventurers dismounted, first tied up the mountain bandits lying on the ground and humming, and then came over to ask Su Wen what to do.
"Generally speaking, what do you do?" Su Wen asked rhetorically.
"Ordinary robbers generally don't dare to touch us, and all we encounter are local snakes, and we can pass safely by paying a little filial piety money, and they generally won't embarrass us. Remir explained to Su Wen: "This kind of thief who doesn't have long eyes, if he encounters it, he will run away or kill him, like these people, he can be dragged to Xuedun City and receive a bounty according to the wanted warrant." ”
Su Wen snorted and let them dispose of it at will. Su Wen was not interested in this kind of extraneous thing.
"Su Wen. Ellie behind her screamed softly, and when Su Wen turned her head, she continued: "I think they have a familiar smell. ”
"Taste?"
Ellie's nose moved slightly, she took two breaths lightly, and confirmed again: "That's right." ”
"And then?"
"Go after them!"
"Not in a hurry to find your grandma?"
"It's not that I'm not in a hurry, but ...... Yes, they smell like my grandmother's!" Ellie's expression changed suddenly, and she reacted suddenly, and grabbed Su Wen's hand unconsciously and unconsciously pushed a lot harder.
Looking at Ellie's appearance, Su Wen also put away his expression of indifference, pulled up the reins, and said to Remir and the others: "I'm going to chase those guys who ran away, borrowing horses." ”
"The terrain in this mountain is complicated, and I may be able to help you with one or two. Greenfell made a request.
"You feel free. Su Wen threw down a sentence and rode out.
Greenfell and Remiel spoke briefly, and followed. Their decision was for Ramir to take the bandits to Shelton City first, and then Greenfield would meet them in the city.
It is excellent to be able to have a relationship with a strong man like Su Wen, no matter how bad it is, you can't lose this horse, right? The price of the horse is also a lot of wealth for them.
"Face left ahead and head up the hill. Ellie hugged Su Wen, her head poking out from the side to distinguish the road. This ability to follow scents for clues was also acquired after being reborn, and now it actually comes in handy.
"Riding a horse up the mountain?" Su Wen hesitated, in his cognition, there was no way to climb the mountain on a horse.
"You get out of the way. ”
Ellie nimbly slipped from Su Wen's side to the front, and then squeezed Su Wen behind the saddle. Su Wen was **** by a soft and elastic thing, and he couldn't tell what it felt.
The reins were already in Ellie's hands, and Ellie gently pinched the horse's belly with her legs, and the sturdy brown horse leapt up to the top of the hill and stopped on it in an unscientific position.
Can you really climb a mountain!?
Su Wen simply hugged Ellie's waist so that she wouldn't be thrown off.
"Drive. ”
Ellie flicked the reins, and the brown horse under her crotch climbed up step by step. Theoretically, a horse can climb such a hill that is not steep, and even if it is carried by two people, it does not affect its steady pace in the slightest, but only slightly increases its physical burden.
Su Wen looked back and saw that the mountain road was already hidden in the grass and trees, but in the dense branches, Greenfell, who was riding on a horse, also followed. As a scout, his horseback riding skills are obviously a notch higher than Ellie's, and his speed is obviously much faster than the two of them.
In this mountain forest, Su Wen noticed a trace of magic, it seems that the mountain bandit also released a supporting spell to strengthen his foot strength on the way to escape, but the spell was too rough, and the traces left were quite obvious.
The bandits specifically physically concealed their traces of escape, so that Ellie's speed became slower and slower, and on a platform with slightly slower terrain, she lost the breath of the bandits.
"No ......" Ellie was a little anxious, looking around for suspicious traces.
"Go over there. Su Wen pointed in one direction.
Ellie didn't ask much and immediately rode over.
Greenfell followed, closing his mouth as he wanted to speak. In front of Lord Su Wen, his little trick is useless......
Sure enough, after walking more than 100 meters, the two found a mountainside platform, on which there were some sheds, and under the sheds were some sundries, among the sundries, the entrance of a cave was faintly visible, which should be the lair of this group of mountain bandits.
Su Wen released a soft sound technique, then turned over and dismounted. He was about to take a step, but was pulled back by Ellie.
"Slow down. Ellie whispered to Su Wen as she used Su Wen's shoulder as an armrest and flipped off the horse.
Greenfield finally followed, found an opportunity, and said: "Lord Su Wen, this is probably the stronghold of those mountain bandits, you can go and feel the situation first, in case there are any traps." It's not that I'm boasting, but I'm still very confident in removing the traps......"
"There are a lot of people in the cave, about twenty, and the breath is mixed, so I can't tell the difference. Ellie said.
"It's okay, let's go inside. ”
Greenfell shut his mouth.
So the two of them walked out of the grass with a big grin, and went straight to the cave.
"Ellie, if there is a fight in a moment, will you be afraid?" Su Wen suddenly asked.
"......" Ellie didn't slow down her progress, but she didn't answer Su Wen's words either.
Su Wen knew that Ellie was seriously thinking about what would happen next. Although Ellie deliberately avoided the instinct to hunt and prey, this avoidance was only temporary, and in any case, the instinct to exist with the body was always there, as natural as eating and drinking.
As for the situation in the cave, Ellie had already thought about it many times in her head, and she didn't dare to imagine the worst.
Su Wen touched Ellie's head and said soothingly, "Take it easy." ”
Comfort that seemed painless was essential to Ellie, and Su Wen's words seemed to have magical powers, gradually calming Ellie's mood.
The two appeared at the entrance of the cave.
"Damn, this time it's planted. The bandit leader sat down in a chair next to him, and a younger brother was standing behind him to give him medicine.
"It's all about special periods, so let you be careful. If something happens, it's not something you can afford. On the other side of the cave, two men dressed in black said coldly.
Judging from the dress, these two people are not the same as these mountain bandits.
"Don't worry, what Lao Tzu provoked, Lao Tzu resisted, and it won't hinder you in anything. ”
The other male nodded and stopped talking.
Maybe the little brother used too much force, shaking too much medicine on the back of the bandit, the hurting bandit leader twitched, scolded a word, and the little brother hurriedly apologized tremblingly.
The man in black was probably upset when he heard this, threw out a bottle of wound medicine, and said coldly, "Use this." ”
The bandit leader took the wound medicine and handed it to the younger brother. When this medicine is applied to the body, the effect is obviously much better.
"It's a big organization, and the effect is good. ”
The man in black didn't answer again.
After they finished speaking, while the cave was still quiet, Su Wen finally found an opportunity and coughed twice.
