Chapter I

A scholar

——————————————

......

Dressed in green plain clothes, the fragrance of half a book.

......

"What's your name?"

"Jiang Hengyan!"

"Where to go?"

"Nanqi Prefecture Mansion!"

"Do what?"

"Catch the test!"

"It turned out to be a scholar rushing to take the exam! Follow us! There are robbers in this realm, and most of you weak scholars can't cope with it!"

"Thank you!"

......

A group of passing caravans kindly took a lame scholar and his little scholar on the side of the road and headed to the next town.

The scholar's name is Jiang Hengyan, and his scholar's name is Jiang Liu'er.

They were going to Nanqi Prefecture, thousands of miles away, to take the exam there.

It is said that it is a fair place, so even a small person like him, who has no background, should be able to make some way out.

The leader of the caravan that kindly took them in was a middle-aged man in his thirties.

This person likes to drink, he didn't expect that the scholar named Jiang Hengyan also likes to drink, and the amount of alcohol is quite good.

Several strong men continued to drink alcohol, and as a result, the people who poured the wine were all drunk, but he still looked at the green mountains and green waters passing by with his eyes open.

Those views were something they had been accustomed to for a long time as a caravan.

I can't see the detailed difference between them, but this mountain is a little higher than that mountain, and the forest over there is a little deeper than the forest here.

Jiang Liuer commented: "You are a very high realm, only simple-minded people can see things so simple." ”

But Jiang Hengyan told Jiang Liu'er: "They are not simple people, and I am not a simple person....... There are too few people who are really simple. ”

He always said strange things like this, and even Jiang Liu'er couldn't keep up with the speed of his brain circuits many times.

When approaching the edge of town.

The captain of the caravan did not rush to the town with the team, but first rested in the nearby mountain forest.

Then he hurried to the city before dark.

Jiang Liu'er and Jiang Heng sat in the shade of a tree, calmly took out the books in their baskets, and then read them.

"It's very serious!" The captain of the caravan smiled, "I believe that you people who are so serious will definitely be able to get a good score in the exam!"

"Inherit the good words of the eldest brother!"

Jiang Heng smiled, and then looked at the mountains and forests on the side.

As far as the eye can see, the lush mountains and forests are roaming with all kinds of birds and animals.

It's noon.、Most of them hid in that shady place.,Should be comfortably closing their eyes.、Enjoy the comfort brought by this mountain forest.。

When a black crow lifted from the bottom up to the top leaf, a flock of blackbirds scattered out from under a tree in terror, and all the beasts scattered.

A few "whoosh" sounds.

The muffled sound of arrows piercing the void and striking trees was accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves from far and near.

A group of soldiers dressed in embarrassment fled forward in panic, during which people were constantly killed.

The breath of death instantly enveloped the sky above the mountains and forests, and continued to spread past.

The rest of the people continued to flee for their lives, but eventually fell to the loss.

When the last man was hit by an arrow in the shoulder and fell to the ground and rolled behind a tree on the side of the road.

A black horse approached slowly with a black-robed figure......

The sound of horses' hooves approached slowly like a deadly requiem, and the soldier who had been unable to move an inch by an arrow in his body looked frightened and hid behind a tree trembling all over. Next to him lay a young man resting against the tree......

There was also a child of seven or eight years old sitting next to the boy.

The soldier lowered his voice and tried to blackmail the young man: Don't get out...... (sounds).

Who would have thought that a fatal knife would pass through his neck.

Death falls instantly.

The head rolled to the side, and the headless body slowly fell to the ground unwillingly.

The sound of horses' hooves circled from behind the tree to the front of the tree, and a long sword was still stained with unfallen blood.

was gasping for breath on the dark horse, staring at the young man with wide eyes.

Immediately, a black-robed man sat looking at the young man behind the tree.

He had closed his eyes and made the appearance of continuing to rest, while a basket full of books lay beside him. And a seven or eight-year-old kid who just kept looking at his book and didn't pay any attention to what was going on.

"Scholar?"

No!

How could a scholar be so calm?

killed someone on the side, but continued to sleep and continue to read without changing his face and heartbeat?

Even though the black-robed man aimed his sword at him, he still lay on his side beside the root of the tree indifferently.

The tip of the black-robed man's sword gradually stabbed towards the young man.

That's when ......

A hurried trumpet sounded, and the black-robed man turned his horse's head and hurried in the direction from which the trumpet sounded.

He looked back at the two men, his eyes flashing in confusion.

......

After the black-robed man left, Jiang Heng was still lying there motionless.

The sound of chaotic footsteps came, accompanied by two figures appearing behind the trees, and not far away, a caravan that had heard the movement early and hid also appeared in sight.

Caravan A: You two are so daring! You almost wiped your neck!

Caravan Member B: Thanks to him being here all the time, we were able to draw the attention of the black-robed man, otherwise we would have followed the bad luck of this soldier!

Caravan Member A: What was the origin of those black-robed men just now? They even dared to kill the soldiers?

......

The captain of the caravan also rushed over, and sensed that the atmosphere was not right.

He left with his team and greeted Jiang Heng and Jiang Liu'er at that time.

It's a pity that the two of them didn't seem to hear it, so they could only leave with their own people first.

The captain looked at the direction the black-robed man left and shook his head: "The border is dangerous! Dragons and snakes are mixed! Who knows which people on the road have the courage to attack these officers and soldiers!"

Then he looked at the soldier's corpse and sighed: "In front of you is the boundary of Qingyan City...... Deliver the stuff and we're done..... It's a mission!"

When his gaze swept to Jiang Heng and Jiang Liu'er's location again, his expression was shocked: "Where are they??"

The crowd searched around, and finally saw them on the mountain road not far away.

Because the black-robed man had just left, they didn't dare to shout loudly.

At this time, Jiang Heng's voice had already come, and his voice floated between the mountains and forests above them, constantly spinning, and came into their ears:

"Now that it's right and wrong, let's get out of here!"

At this moment, a group of people were in a trance for a moment before they realized: "I feel that these two boys are actually cultivators......

They have also met many people of this kind of profundity, and they can recognize the existence of people like them.

It's just that what I didn't expect was that such a person who was far away from the world would pretend to be a scholar and accompany them for a long time.

And afterwards, the caravan leader found an elixir and a note from his pocket:

"Dedicated to life-saving, thank you for a few days of wine!"
