Chapter Seventy-Three: The Army

After hearing He Yiming's words. Those people were stunned at first, and then they all looked at each other.

It was the first time they had seen the people of the Tianluo Kingdom speak in such a proud tone when they talked about themselves and the Kairong Kingdom. At this moment, they seemed to feel that one of the three major powers in the northwest was not Kairong Kingdom, but their Tianluo Kingdom.

If someone else speaks in this way, they will scold that person for not knowing what to do, even if they don't scoff at it.

But after seeing He Yiming's expression, they had a feeling of surprise, as if this person was born with such an arrogant expression.

After hearing He Yiming's words, they even had a sense of pride, as if their Tianluo people were far more noble than the people of Kairong Kingdom.

Several people shook their heads, putting this strange feeling away, and they secretly muttered in their hearts that they must be evil.

Xu Su's heart sank, his eyesight was far above many companions, and he knew that this person was by no means simple. Immediately, he smiled and said, "Since a few of us can look down on our caravan, it is our honor, and I invite you to enter." ”

Several people around him looked at him in amazement. I can't figure out why the cautious big brother has become so easy to talk this time.

Xu Su personally led them into the camp, and everyone looked sideways along the way.

But after a while, they came to the largest tent in the camp, and Xu Su arched his hand and said, "Everyone, although you are the leader of this team, after all, you are employed, if you want to join the caravan, you must be approved by the leader of the caravan." ”

There was a hint of apology on his face, and this expression was just right, neither embarrassing nor provoking them to be embarrassed or disgusted.

He Yiming smiled on his forehead, and he secretly said in his heart, anyone who can stand out among hundreds of people is really not simple.

Xu Su entered the tent alone, and a moment later, a pot-bellied man walked out with him.

The man was fat, and his small eyes seemed to be drawn out of reed leaves, but they shimmered with a thin light, and the shrewdness revealed in them could be seen at all times.

Looking at He Yiming and the others carefully and seriously for a moment, his face was suddenly full of smiles, and he said, "Contemptible Zhang Facai, may I ask the names of the three high-ranking people." ”

He Yiming smiled and said casually: "In Xia Li Koubei, this is Humble Jing, this is Senior Brother in Xia, surnamed Bai." ”

Zhang Facai nodded, not knowing whether he believed it in his heart. But there was not the slightest hint on his face. Based on this, we know that he must be a person with rich experience, and this kind of person generally does business, even if he does not take advantage, he will not suffer too much.

"Brother Li, you have also seen that we are a small caravan with limited materials, and it is not as good as the luxury tent of a big family. He smiled and said, "If you don't dislike it, it's no problem to make a small tent." “

He Yiming laughed and said: "It's already very good to be able to have a place to live when you're away, thank you Brother Zhang." ”

Zhang Facai waved his hand again and again and said, "Since we are going out, we naturally have to help each other." Is it convenient for others and for yourself? As he spoke, a man called for a few orders, and suddenly a tent was taken from the wagon of the caravan again, and it began to be erected.

He Yiming looked at each other silently, and the faces of those people were a little stupid, as if they were not willing to accept this extra labor. But no one objected to Zhang Facai's decision, nor did he refute it. It can be seen that this person's control over the caravan is still very strong.

Zhang Facai invited He Yiming and others into the tent, and he and Xu Su accompanied them.

These two people have traveled through countless places and seen people, Zhang Facai's eloquence is even more first-class and flexible, and any topic can come out of his mouth a little novelty, which makes He Yiming and Yuan Lixun very satisfied, and they don't feel lonely at all. As for Hundred and Eight, his cold expression didn't know if he had listened to these words.

Zhang Facai and Xu Su took the time to look at each other, and became more and more sure in their hearts that He Yiming and Yuan Lixun should be a rich lady on a trip, as for Bai and Ba, they are nominally their senior brothers, but they are actually guards in their mansion, in order to ensure their safety.

As soon as the topic changed, Zhang Facai sighed: "Three, it is really too dangerous for you to go on the road alone here, it is better to take this road less in the future." ”

He Yiming was surprised and asked, "Why?"

Zhang Facai shook his head and said, "This is Tai'a County in Tianluo Kingdom, and it is the most rampant place for horse thieves in the country. If you want to travel safely here, it's best to join a large caravan. Only when there are many people can we protect ourselves. ”

Yuan Lixun blinked his big beautiful eyes and said, "Aren't the horse thieves in Tai'a County swept away in Taicang County?" ”

Although Yuan Lixun is not interested in such a thing, everyone knows about the major event that happened in Taicang County in the past. She also stayed in Hejiazhuang for a while, as long as she was not deaf, she would have heard of it, so she was no stranger to the horse thieves in Tai'a County.

Zhang Facai smiled bitterly and said, "Madame doesn't know anything. The group that was wiped out was the old group of horse thieves. It was because the old horse thieves were wiped out that our days were even more difficult. ”

This time, even He Yiming was surprised, and he said sincerely: "Brother Zhang, why is this." ”

Zhang Facai shook his head and said, "Those horse thieves in the past have been entrenched here for decades, and although they are greedy, they still know the necessary moderation. But these new horse thieves are like a pack of hungry wolves, and for the sake of Liwei, they are all ruthless, as long as the slightest disappointment, they are immediately killed. Alas...... If you want to feed them, it will not be possible without a few years. ”

He Yiming's face slowly became gloomy, and after the other party mentioned the horse thief in Tai'a County, he suddenly remembered the conversation between Cheng Fu and the prince and princess of Kairong Kingdom that he had heard in Tianluo Kingdom in the past.

In that conversation, let He Yiming know that behind the group of horse thieves in Tai'a County, which is adjacent to Kairong Kingdom, there is actually the support of the second prince of Kairong Kingdom.

If it weren't for that, with the national strength of the Tianluo Kingdom at this time, how could it never be destroyed.

If this matter had been before, he would have done nothing. But at this moment, his identity and personal strength have changed drastically from when he just went to Kairong Kingdom.

At this time, I met Zhang Facai and others, maybe this is the will of God.

Seeing a hint of coldness suddenly flashing in He Yiming's eyes, Zhang Facai and Xu Su felt a faint chill in their hearts at the same time, and they were even more sure that these three people were by no means ordinary people.

A moment later, He Yiming's tent had been set up, and dinner was ready.

At the invitation of Zhang Facai and others, He Yiming and the three of them had dinner, although these dishes were extremely simple. And the taste is salty, but the caravan people eat fast and abundantly, and they have obviously been accustomed to it for a long time.

After dinner, He Yiming and the three of them came to the tent.

It was a tent big enough for ten people, and it was more than enough for three of them to live.

Zhang Facai kept saying that the small tent was actually arranged for them, and it was already the best thing in the spare tent in the caravan.

After entering the tent, Yuan Lixun said softly: "Yiming, are horse thieves really so rampant here?"

He Yiming nodded slightly and said, "Behind them, there are people who support them, since this is the case, of course they are unscrupulous." ”

"There are people who support horse thieves, don't Tianluo Kingdom care? Yuan Lixun frowned slightly and said.

He Yiming sneered twice and said, "It's up to them, how can they manage it." ”

Yuan Lixun was slightly stunned, she was originally a smart person in Bingxue, and at this time, she broke through the innate and was even more keen, and she grasped the main point in an instant.

"Could it be that the backer behind them is Kairong Country?"

"Yes, it's the second prince of Kairong Kingdom. He Yiming paused suddenly, thought for a while, and said, "Perhaps, this itself is a direct instruction from the royal family of Kairong Kingdom." ”

Yuan Lixun sighed lightly, although she couldn't agree with such an act, but she knew that it was really difficult to say whether this kind of thing between countries was right or wrong.

In doing so, Kairong Kingdom clearly wanted to delay the development of Tianluo Kingdom.

Although the plague of horse thieves is not enough for a country to affect her foundation, this group of horse thieves who come and go without a trace is enough to give anyone a headache.

※※※※

Although there were three people in this tent, He Yiming and Yuan Lixun were almost blind to the existence of one hundred and eight.

After all, this guy isn't really human. And he sat quietly on the ground. It's like a real statue, and people will ignore him without realizing it.

This kind of skill made He Yiming envious, but he couldn't learn it at all.

When the tent was laid out, the sheepskin blanket was laid out against the ground, and there was even a warm fur quilt on it.

Zhang Facai thought very thoughtfully, even in this humble place, which made He Yiming feel very satisfied.

The two of them lay down side by side, they unceremoniously occupied the position of the three people, as for the hundred and eight, I am afraid that even he himself never thought of sleeping.

※※※※

Night has finally fallen.

The sky was full of black clouds, leaking out a few stars, the wind and waves were like the sound of gluttony, and the boundless grassland during the day was all digested in the wider night.

Except for the occasional neighing of horses in the entire camp, there were only those in charge of the guards.

For those who have walked this road for a long time, such nights are very ordinary, especially the vendors and rotating guards who have been on the road for a day, and basically fall asleep with their heads touching their pillows.

When you're away from home, this skill is also very useful.

Finally, when the long night was about to end, He Yiming sat up from his fur abruptly, he turned his face sideways, his ears quickly twitched twice, and the expression on his face became extremely strange.

Yuan Lixun was surprised and asked, "What's wrong?"

He Yiming pointed into the distance and said, "Someone is coming, there are quite a few people, about two hundred riders, fast horses...... Good horse. ”

Yuan Lixun was slightly shocked in his heart, it was not easy to be praised by He Yiming for a good horse.

More than 200 horses, although it is impossible to reach the level of the red silk horse, but if they are all good horses, they are also a wealth that cannot be ignored.

Yuan Lixun's eyes were half-closed, her innate true qi was slowly running in her body, and the temperature of the surrounding space was even lower.

However, this is not the first time she has done this, and her true qi is controlled just right, and it has not attracted the attention of people outside.

When that true qi began to gather, her whole person underwent a strange change, and an indescribable solemn coercion spread faintly from her body.

This is the unique momentum of an innate powerhouse, and unconsciously, even Yuan Lixun has gradually become accustomed to it.

After a moment, her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she said, "I heard it too." ”

Her voice was excited, even though she didn't have the power of the wind system, but when she used her innate true qi, she could greatly improve her personal ear and eye sensitivity. It's just the first time Yuan Lixun has officially used it, so it's just a little fussed.

He Yiming shook his head slightly, saw Yuan Lixun's appearance, and also remembered the scene when he first practiced Shunfeng Ear Qigong.

After all, the two of them are young men and women under twenty, and when it comes to the city government, they are naturally far inferior to Thunder and Shui Xuanjin and others.

Suddenly, there was a shrill whistle in the camp, which is a special musical instrument made of bamboo, once blown, crisp and pleasant, used to wake up everyone, it is indeed the best choice.

Suddenly, the whole camp began to be lively.

Yuan Lixun smiled slightly, dissipated her true qi, she once again became an ordinary little woman, and she no longer had the sense of majesty just now.

Footsteps sounded rapidly, and they rushed towards here.

"Brother Li, are you here?" Xu Su's calm voice sounded, but for some reason, He Yiming heard a faint taste of unkindness from it.

His heart moved slightly, and he immediately understood that Xu Su suspected that he and the others were related to the gradually approaching cavalry. But he can't be blamed for this, who called the time between them to come so coincidentally. Even if He Yiming explained with all his heart, I was afraid that it would be difficult to get Xu Su's approval.

Lifting the tent curtain, He Yiming took Yuan Lixun's hand and walked out, and as for Bai and Ba, he followed behind them inch by inch.

The moment the curtain was opened, a wave of cold air surged out, making Xu Su shiver. He was amazed at how the weather had suddenly become so cold.

However, it was winter after all, and the roar of horses' hooves could already be faintly heard here, so he only hesitated for a moment and put the matter aside completely.

After all, with his knowledge and status, it was not yet possible to contact the powerhouses of the Innate Realm, let alone know that some True Qi had the ability to change the temperature of the surrounding space.

After seeing the calm appearance of He Yiming and the others, Xu Su's face softened slightly, and he immediately said: "Brother Li, we just found out that there are horse thieves coming towards us, for your safety, it is best to stay in the tent and not walk around, I will arrange two brothers to protect you." ”

He said that, gave his hand, turned and left, and did not stop for a moment.

This kind of resolute attitude made He Yiming feel a little appreciative, he had reached such a critical juncture, of course, he had to deal with everything quickly. If you still have to procrastinate, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, you will be killing yourself.

More than a dozen people followed behind him, but two of them were left behind, staring at them with vigilant eyes, looking at the posture, it seemed that as long as there was the slightest mistake, they would draw their swords against each other.

He Yiming was not annoyed by this, with his status at this time, he would not really take such a thing to heart.

One of the two arched his hand and said, "Mr. Li, Brother Xu ordered, please enter the tent, and the province will be injured by mistake later." ”

He Yiming smiled and said calmly: "It's okay, let's take a look here to see how rampant the horse thieves in Tai'a County are." ”

The two men were stunned for a moment, for it was the first time they had seen someone hear the name of the horse thief, and instead of showing fear and hesitation, they seemed to be interested.

Before He Yiming and the others, they did suspect that the three uninvited guests were actually in league with the upcoming horse thieves. But after meeting at this moment, for some reason, this idea is getting weaker and weaker. It seems to be insulting to compare them to horse thieves.

After glancing at each other, one of them reluctantly said: "Okay, you guys are here to watch, but you must not leave, otherwise it will be difficult for our two brothers to explain." ”

He Yiming nodded with a smile, and the two of them were relieved, but they did not leave, but were carefully guarded not far away. It's just that their eyes glanced at He Yiming and the others from time to time, and they clearly had the task of monitoring them.

After a few moments, the sound of horses' hooves became clearer.

Although there were only more than 200 people and more than 200 horsemen, when these people galloped towards the camp, the momentum caused by it was so strong that people faintly saw the scene of thousands of horses galloping.

For a moment, most of the people in the camp turned pale. Such a disciplined horse thief is really too rare.

He Yiming snorted coldly and said, "Army." ”

Yuan Lixun's big eyes rolled, and he immediately comprehended, and said, "The army of Kairong Kingdom?"

He Yiming raised his forehead and sneered: "I originally thought that they were gathering idle people to act as horse thieves, but I didn't expect that they would directly send troops over. ”

Although his voice was low, there was a deep, chilling killing intent in it.

"His Royal Highness, the Second Prince of Kairong Kingdom, is for me...... I really have a soft spot for our Tianluo Kingdom. ”

Yuan Lixun felt the powerful anger and resentment in He Yiming's heart, and when she looked back, she happened to see the fleeting light in her eyes.

At this moment, Yuan Lixun suddenly remembered His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince of the Tu Domain, who had died in a foreign land...... Bu Chu Cong.
