Chapter 15: The Robbers
"The place we are walking now is one of the several roads leading to Cangzhou by the Chiyan tribe, because there are often caravans walking, so there are no too powerful demon beasts infested, what we should be most worried about is people. ”
It has been five days since he left the Chiyan Tribe, and the journey is about a third of the way, and this day the caravan is slowly moving forward as usual, Chen Hai walked beside Lu Xiaoman and kindly reminded.
Lu Xiaoman's face was calm, and he didn't reply but nodded.
Seeing this, Chen Hai didn't care, and continued to talk about other things that needed attention, while Lu Xiaoman was talking to Li Shenzhou in his mind at this time.
"Master, what do you think I did this time?"
Li Shenzhou reluctantly said: "Not bad... Just do it. ”
"Uh-huh, I got the Master. Lu Xiaoman heard Li Shenzhou's praise and said happily.
"Master, the people Uncle Chen Hai said to be careful with are those robbers and bandits, right?" Lu Xiaoman said in a very smart tone.
"That's right, when you encounter this situation, you can kill it directly," Li Shenzhou taught: "This kind of small caravan should not encounter any robbers who are too powerful, but if you really encounter too strong then you have to break through quickly." ”
"What about the rest of the caravan?"
"What do you care about them, and you are responsible for your own life. ”
"But Master, is this considered an escape?" Lu Xiaoman asked after thinking about it.
"It's called a strategic retreat. Li Shenzhou rolled his eyes and said, "If something that must be guarded is in danger, you can fight hard, for example, if you and your grandfather encounter a powerful demon beast, even if you can't beat it, you have to go up and fight hard, that's right, but when you hunt by yourself, you will still go up and fight if you encounter a demon beast that you can't beat?"
"No," Lu Xiaoman said with a shake of his head in his heart.
"That's right, it's stupid to have no reason to fight. ”
"Xiaoman knows," Lu Xiaoman suddenly realized, and said seriously: "Master is what Xiaoman must protect, so Xiaoman will only work hard for Master." ”
Li Shenzhou didn't know whether he was funny or moved when he heard this, but it seemed that even if Lu Xiaoman died a hundred times, he wouldn't die.
I don't know if Li Shenzhou still has the hidden attribute of a crow's mouth. Although their small caravan did not encounter a powerful bandit group, they did encounter another large caravan that was being robbed by a powerful bandit group.
It's just that the situation of this large caravan is obviously not very good, even if the number and strength of the guards are several times stronger than the caravan that Lu Xiaoman is in, it is still beaten by the bandit group. When they met, they saw several guards fleeing in their direction with a fat middle-aged man who was clearly dressed like the leader of a caravan.
"Boss Han!"
"Are you?"
The two sides recognized each other as soon as they met.
"Boss Han, our Song City Lord has found a healing elixir for the daughter of Lord Zhou Mu, as long as Boss Han can help us escape the pursuit, our Song family and Lord Zhou Mu will definitely be grateful. Steward Song, who was being hunted down, said quickly.
"This..."
Boss Han was very moved when he heard this, he knew that this world still belonged to the Tianlong Dynasty on the surface, and the state pastor was the ruler of a state, with an overview of the military and political power, and Cangzhou State Mu Su Ying himself was still a great master of the Ning Yuan Realm, and only one woman was over fifty years old and suffering from a strange illness but had been regarded as a treasure by him, these situations had already spread throughout Cangzhou, if he could cure his daughter's illness, then Suzhou Mu would definitely give heavy thanks, and his family could at least rise several steps.
But when he thought that the strength of the robbers who could hunt down this Song steward must be very strong, he hesitated for a while. At this time, a burst of laughter came quickly from far and near.
"It's delusional that these stinky fish and rotten shrimp want to escape from me. ”
As he spoke, a burly figure rushed out of the forest, and the half-human-tall Xue Liang broadsword in his hand was raised high, and in the horror of everyone, he slashed Steward Song and the four guards around him into two pieces with one sword.
"You are the 'guillotine' Peng Yue!" "Boss Han couldn't help but exclaim.
"Do you actually recognize Lao Tzu?" The big man had just taken out a small bag from Steward Song's corpse, and couldn't help but look at him with a murderous face when he heard the words.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, we didn't see anything!" Boss Han just blurted out that he knew something was wrong, and hurriedly said.
"Hehe!" Peng Yue didn't speak, just looked at them with a sneer.
"Oh no, he's waiting for his men!" At this time, Chen Hai, who had the highest strength on their side, suddenly called.
"It's too late to know now!" As Peng Yue laughed, the caravan was already surrounded by a group of black-clothed people.
Everyone quickly drew their weapons and looked around vigilantly.
"As long as you are willing to let me go, I am willing to be your subordinate and join your Black Flag Society!" Chen Hai gritted his teeth and said suddenly.
The caravan's guards couldn't help but be moved when they heard this.
"Oh, you're smart... Building a layer of foundation, the strength is not bad..."Then Peng Yue looked at Chen Hai with a smile and said, "But it's not so easy to join our Black Flag Club..."
Seeing this, Chen Hai suddenly pulled out his knife and looked at the two guards beside him.
"You!" This time was too sudden, and the two of them were killed by Chen Hai before they could dodge.
"Brother Chen!"
"Captain Chen!"
The other guards who had hoped to surrender to the Black Flag Society looked at Chen Hai in horror.
"Is this nomination enough?" Chen Hai asked in a deep voice as he licked the blood splashed on his face.
"Not enough, the less people know about it, the better. Peng Yue looked at him meaningfully and said.
"Good!"
The next moment, Chen Hai once again brandished his long knife and killed the others, and the black-clothed people around him also shot together at Peng Yue's signal.
"Master, are we going to retreat strategically? I really want to be unable to defeat Peng Yue there. In the scuffle, Lu Xiaoman asked while dealing with a man in black.
"Don't worry, wait and see," Li Shenzhou said, "You don't want to shoot with all your might, just move to the edge of the encirclement while entanglement with this person." ”
Lu Xiaoman did what she said when she heard this, because she didn't have true qi herself, so she was not conspicuous in the body refining realm.
On the other side, as more people died under Chen Hai's hands, the smile on Peng Yue's face became more and more obvious.
"Ruthless and strong, it's really rare to ——"
Before the words fell, Peng Yue, who was still praising Chen Hai, suddenly changed his face and killed him.
"It's a pity that his brain is not smart enough, Lao Tzu doesn't want to face the anger of the powerhouse of Ning Yuan Realm, so you better die!"
"Phew!"
In the face of Peng Yue's sneak attack, Chen Hai seemed to have been prepared, although his face was even more ugly, but he still blocked it.
"Have you built the foundation three times, you actually hid your strength!" Seeing that Chen Hai actually blocked this blow, Peng Yue was a little surprised, but the movements in his hands were non-stop, and he attacked Chen Hai's whole body.
"You forced me!" Chen Hai had a fierce look on his face, and while dodging, he took out a round ball from his arms and threw it to the ground.
"Peng!"
The ball shattered and quickly dissolved into a cloud of colored smoke that drifted away.
