Chapter 104: The Fear of Death
Inferred from his words and deeds about Kochio, he is definitely a person whose emotional intelligence is infinitely close to zero, but he is extremely self-conscious, and he is extremely naïve to the point of being stupid. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Ning Yue looked at the big bags and small packages full of cars, and the worldview in her heart slowly collapsed.
"Big brother—"
"Ah, Brother Ning......"
"Can you speak well, don't use such a tone? We are going to Beijing to sue the imperial court, just travel lightly, we can reach the capital as soon as possible, and it is convenient to avoid the eyes of people with hearts. You've got a big cart full of them...... Isn't that appropriate?"
"Hey, the whole family of the foolish brother is in trouble, and this Jinling City has been a sad place since then. Since he was going to the capital, the foolish brother also left Jinling by the way to settle in the capital, but fortunately his father left some money before his death......"
"By the way, I think suing the emperor is by the way, right?" Ning Yue's mind was already a little tangled. For such a habitual death, Ning Yue had a strong premonition that this Kochi worried son might not live long. If it weren't for the sake of 50,000 points of experience, Ning Yue wouldn't want to take on this task at all.
The swaggering departure began, and Ning Yue's original plan and route were all nullified. At the beginning, Ning Yue planned to rush into Beijing within three days with Gao Zhiwu day and night. But when he saw Gao Zhiwu packing a large car, he was helpless.
Gao Zhiwu is so extreme that his ego is unreasonable, let him entrust the salute to the dart board, and take him first? He told you to cultivate oneself and cultivate virtue by cultivating oneself and frugality? Pick up your sister!
As they set off, Ning Yue quickly collapsed. The small road does not take the big road, and the sun just rises and shouts that the heat can't stand it and wants to rest? When you see the scenery, you have to stop and watch, and chant a sour poem or two from time to time.
Walk and stop, but at night it has not even left the territory of Jinling? Jinling has traveled 800 miles to the capital, and at this rate it will not be possible to reach it in 10 days and half a month. Moreover, Ning Yue didn't believe that they were walking so swaggeringly, and the people in the dark would not notice it.
"Ah, Brother Ning......"
"Can you not speak in such a tone? I'm afraid I'm afraid I'll cut you!"
"Brother Ning is really funny! I think the moonlight is sultry tonight, why don't we raise a glass and invite Mingyue to enjoy Chang'e's dance?" Before dark, the group checked into an inn, and after dinner, Gao Zhi came to Ning Yue and said nervously.
"Gao Gongzi is in a good mood, aren't you afraid that Governor Gao will give you a dream at night?" Ning Yue actually wanted to say that you might crawl out of the grave in anger if you were like this, but Ning Yue felt that it was better to keep some virtue, so she said vaguely.
"My generation of merry and talented people should be free and uninhibited, and the trouble in the foolish brother's family has become a fact that cannot be changed. My father always taught me not to dwell on the past, but to have a future. Don't indulge in facts, people should talk later. If I indulge in grief and wash my face with tears all day long, won't this make my father and brother under the Nine Springs uneasy?"
"So Brother Gao understands this?" Ning Yue's eyes widened, and she was speechless for a long time, and Governor Gao seemed destined to die. Ning Yue shook her head, "It's late, take an early break and have to hurry tomorrow!"
It was safe for three days, and finally on the third day, Ning Yue and his party really left Jiangnan Province and entered Jiangbei Province. Although Gangnam Province and Gangbuk Province both belong to Jiangzhou, the landform, environment and terroir are very different.
Tomizawa, Gangnam Province, is famous for Kyushu, but Gangbuk Province is also famous for its barrenness. The north and south of Jiangzhou are distributed on both sides of the river, which should have developed in a balanced manner. However, the Yangtze River natural insurance has made the development to two extremes. And...... Because the Yangtze River was occupied by the Nujiao Gang, Jiangzhou's policies could not circulate to the north and south of the river.
After crossing the Yangtze River, the road became rough. Even official roads are always hidden among the mountains deep in the dense forest. You may not see people all day, and even if you eat and drink, you can only bring your own. But there is one benefit that is incomparable in Jiangnan.
On Mayday, it is also a pleasure to walk in the shade of a tree when the sun is hot. Even if he was so pretentious, he didn't shout tired. On this day, I walked hundreds of miles in one go.
"The birds in the empty mountains are gone, and there are no people in thousands of miles! This Jiangbei Province is really poor, and there are no birds in the sparsely populated area."
As soon as the words fell, Ning Yue suddenly became alert. A slap slapped Kochi into the carriage. After a few days of getting along, Ning Yue was no longer polite to him. But Gao Zhiwu's brain really seems to be missing a tendon, and it seems that he can't judge what others like or dislike about him.
In the moment of Kochi's screams, the sky suddenly began to rain. The raindrops were fine, but dense as a cow's hair. Countless ink-black needles rained down like a torrential rain.
Ning Yue Fei stood in the carriage, and the innate qi under her feet had already unfolded. Ordinary secret weapons are useless to masters of the innate realm. There are only two situations that Ning Yue needs to take seriously. One is that the person who sends the darkening device is also a congenital master, and the second case is the meridian needle!
The meridian needle is shorter and thinner than the Huayang needle, but they have the same effect. The Huayang needle specializes in breaking the Gang Qi of the body protection and refining exercises, while the Meridian Needle specializes in breaking the body protection Gang Qi of the innate master.
"Brother Ning—what happened? Why are you beating me?"
"Don't come out, there's an assassin!"
"Oh!"
This time Gao Zhiyu is very honest and obedient, if he can always be so honest and obedient, Ning Yue may have a little hope for this escort mission.
The meridian needles in the sky split the head and covered the face, and there were more than a dozen people who shot it. But unfortunately, they were unlucky enough to meet Ning Yue. Ning Yue started with a secret weapon kung fu, but when she saw the secret weapon that split her head and covered her face, Ning Yue's eyes suddenly lit up.
Since the star chessboard has been completed, there has been no opportunity to recklessly spread joy. The last time I dealt with Shihemen, I almost got it done with a bone nail. And now, these mysterious killers seem a little more professional.
"Snort-" Ning Yue's Star Luo chessboard activated. The cloak behind his back shook violently, and more than a dozen hidden weapons shot out almost simultaneously and shot out towards the dense canopy overhead. The star chessboard can fire seventy-two hidden weapons at the same time. However, the functions of many hidden weapons overlapped, and Ning Yue only chose a dozen or so to hide in the cloak.
The torrential rain stopped, and the meridian needle rain just stopped. It's like a summer rainstorm that pours down one second and falls silent the next.
"Ah Brother Ning-" Ning Yue almost fell off the carriage trembling when she heard this call.
"Can I get out? The Assassins have all run away?"
"You're already out, okay?" Ning Yue jumped out of the carriage speechlessly. The carriage was densely packed with radial needles glowing with blue light. It can be seen that the other party knows Ning Yue very well, at least after the investigation, he launched the attack.
"What are we going to do?" Gao Zhi's face had become very distressed. Frankly speaking, at the last moment, Ning Yue only had time to slap Gao Zhiwei back into the carriage. The two porters hired by Kochi, including the four horses that pulled the carriage, were all shot into hedgehogs.
"You are an employer, you ask me, what should you do by yourself, go back to Jinling or continue to go to Beijing?"
The horses are dead, and there is no place to go in front of the village, no store in the back, luggage gifts and the like, of course, so they can only be abandoned. And the current location is more awkward, almost 400 miles away from Jinling Mansion, and almost 500 miles away from the capital, and it is not up or down in the middle.
"Let's go to Beijing, Brother Ning, I wonder if you would be willing to help me with my luggage?"
"Are you asking me to pull the carriage?" Ning Yue's eyes narrowed slightly, if Gao Zhiwu dared to jump out of between his teeth, Ning Yue promised to slap him.
Kochi was about to nod, but as soon as the words reached his throat, he was suddenly startled by the movement in front of him, and three masked men in black fell from the canopy. The smell is incomparable, and there is a faint green smoke.
"Of course - no!" Kochi worries about his low emotional intelligence, but it doesn't mean that he has a problem with his IQ. The corpses dropped by the three assassins reminded Gao Zhiwei that it seemed that this Brother Ning in front of him was ...... It's still a murderous lord who doesn't blink.
"I just want you to help me carry some of the more expensive ......," before he could finish speaking, several corpses fell, crackling like fruit falling from a tree. At a glance, there were at least a dozen of them.
Gao Zhiwu's face was a little pale, and he blinked and looked at Ning Yue. More than a dozen people, Ning Yue slaughtered them in one swoop, as if eating and drinking water was as simple as that. Obviously, Ning Yue looks so graceful and suave, and she doesn't look like a vulgar martial artist at all. Gao Zhiwei suddenly had a kind of realization, is he too casual these days?
"Gao Gongzi, I was ordered to escort you into the capital, but I am not a servant hired by you, to be honest, I can take compulsory measures to send you to the capital in special times. So...... Such unreasonable demands should not be said. ”
Without the drag of the carriage's luggage, the speed of Ning Yue and the others has also increased a lot. Moreover, Ning Yue also changed her previous route and ran into the deep mountains and old forests without anything. Ning Yue had the experience of her previous life, and she had many more ways to discern her direction in the jungle than the natives of this world. In addition, the mountainous landform of Jiangbei Province is not complicated, so Ning Yue can always grasp the direction.
The advantages of Ning Yue's doing this are obvious, not only can it shorten the time on the road by copying the path, but it can also make it impossible for the killer to accurately estimate his location. Now that there is the first attack, there must be more ambushes waiting for you along the way.
For two days, Ning Yue's whereabouts were erratic. It's bitter, and it's Gao Zhi, who is carried in Ning Yue's hand from time to time. On the first day, Kochi complained the most about blisters on his feet. But then, he knew how wrong his complaint was, it was simply outrageous.
Gao Zhiwei no longer remembered how many times he was forced by Ning Yue to jump off the cliff and fall into the water a few times. He suddenly realized that it was a mistake for him to let the Tenshofu capture and escort him. While lying on the canopy of the tree to rest, he kept wondering if he would be killed by Ning Yue instead of being killed by the assassins?
"Brother Ning—I think I'm ...... Can't walk anymore...... Can you take a break?"
"Senior brother, I think you can still take two steps, why don't you try?"
When Ning Yue and Gao Zhiwei got out of the dense forest, they were like two wild men, and they walked in the dark in the depths of the dense forest for two days, and the official road appeared again, and it had reached the territory of Zhongzhou.
"Brother Ning, if Brother Fool remembers correctly, he hasn't eaten since noon yesterday. I think...... I'm dying. Brother Ning, I have the pleadings I wrote in advance in my arms, if I die, please hand the pleadings to the Imperial History Terrace in the capital......"
