Chapter 31: Accidents
Crossing the Lingjiang River from Runan, there is the fertile Jichang Plain, which is already another territory of Anzhou, Qiudi, to which Rudi belongs. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe fertile plains of the world nourish an endless range of crops and make the land of Khou very rich.
Jiang Shangyu and the others have been passing through Qiu for three days, and today they have crossed the Qinhuai Mountains again and will reach Xingzhou, a large state where the national capital is located. Among the more than a dozen states in the world, only the national capital occupies a state, and the royal family is the Feng clan, which is an ancient surname that has been handed down since ancient times, and there is no state in the world that dares to ignore its noble existence.
The Qinhuai Mountains are very long, and it is the dividing line between the two states of An and Xing, although the two states are close to each other, but because of the high mountain range, in fact, the connection between the national capital and Rudi is very weak. This is also the reason why the Qi family in Rudi cut Jiang, and the main line of the Jiang family in the national capital does not care. It may be that the news has not yet arrived, and it is more likely that the surname Jiang in the national capital feels that the whip is beyond reach, and the two families only have incense left, and the Jiang family may not want to use their strength for this matter.
But all this will not be clear until Jiang Shangyu goes to the national capital, and at present, this team of nearly 100 people is marching with difficulty in the Qinhuai Mountains. The mountain roads are rugged, the forests are lush, and the vines and thorns that climb from time to time bring a lot of trouble to everyone's itinerary.
Fortunately, everyone's frame has been processed in advance in Qiu Di and exchanged for money, otherwise it will be difficult to move step by step.
Even so, everyone was exhausted, especially the many Jiang family teenagers who existed like oil bottles in the team.
"Brother Shangyu, let's take a break. A young man from the Jiang family, pushed by his companions, came to Jiang Shangyu and asked with a shy face.
Jiang Shangyu looked up at the sky for a while, and then replied coldly: "No, the mountain road is long, we must go out tonight." Have you forgotten the danger of the wolf attack last night?" "Last night, a group of hungry wolves dared to attack this team, leaving behind a pile of corpses and fleeing in a hurry, but this team also paid a lot of price, and several samurai are still lying on their horses.
Last night the situation was very dangerous, and everyone was doing their best. Since his departure, Hirata, who has not shown up, also possessed himself last night, organized resistance, and borrowed Jiang Shangyu's body to make a few moves.
"Well, I'm still strong. The young man's expression changed, and he couldn't help but take a big step as he remembered what had happened last night.
Qi Ming glanced at the young man contemptuously, and said to Jiang Shangyu: "I am really ashamed to be a child of a nobleman. What's even more unimaginable is that such a person is still a remnant of the clan, and many of the children of your Jiang family last night are inferior to a few servants in the team. "Since Pingtian showed a little skill on his upper body last night, Qi Ming has become Jiang Shangyu's little fan brother, and he has been following Jiang Shangyu all day long, wanting to ask for advice. "Having said that, Brother Shang Yu, you are also a cultivator at the beginning of the second order, how come a few moves last night were close to the ability of the peak of the second order?"
Of course, Jiang Shangyu smiled and didn't speak, and he couldn't say that Lord Hirata borrowed my body last night and used such words. Qi Ming was naturally unwilling, and still pulled Jiang Shangyu to ask, and even Yuan Jie came up and kept interjecting.
The group walked with laughter and laughter, and the speed was actually a few points faster, and many of the children of the Jiang family were crying, barely following the big team with their hands and feet, and their posture was indescribably awkward.
"Childe, out of this dense forest, it is Tianrui City, the big city of Xingzhou, the city lord is a member of the Feng Clan, and he is the son of today. Coldly, a deep voice came from Jiang Shangyu's ears. This is the samurai Ninun, the second-order peak cultivator, one of the two samurai sent by Shibagawa to protect Hirata, who acted as a butler and samurai captain in this team.
"Well, okay, then let's go into the city in a low-key manner, choose a glass bottle, vote for me and Qi Ming's name, and send it to the city lord. Jiang Shangyu immediately arranged. The glass bottle is the standard resource of each team before departure, and the main commodity of the Holy Chamber of Commerce in the future is originally to be sent to the city lords and lord families in various places. On the one hand, it is to open up the market, and on the other hand, it is also to maintain feelings, and take people softly, isn't it?
"Childe, it is estimated that there will be half a day to get out of this dense forest. Ning Yun walked ahead and reported. There was a bit of joy in the voice, everyone walked in this dense forest for two days, endured a lot of hardships, and finally came to an end.
Jiang Shangyu was about to say a few words of encouragement, when suddenly there was a sound of fighting in front of him.
Jiang Shangyu and Qi Ming walked two steps quickly, stood on a high place, and there were more than a dozen black-clothed people surrounding a few armored warriors, and the fierce moves rained down on the warriors, and soon several warriors were left and right.
But despite this, the samurai were guarding a young man, armed with a bow and arrow, who was also engaged in the battle. Judging from the several hunting dogs lying at his feet, this young man should have gone hunting and playing in the dense forest, but he somehow fought with the man in black, and it seemed that he would not die.
Jiang Shangyu and the others couldn't help but feel annoyed, it was really difficult to encounter such a situation. Jiang Shangyu and Qi Ming exchanged a look, and were about to quietly retreat to the team, taking advantage of the fact that the two sides in front of him did not see their own people, and went around to avoid right and wrong. At this moment, a child of the Jiang family in the rear team suddenly screamed, as if he had stepped on something, and was crying out for pain.
The two sides who were fighting in front of them heard the sound, and they actually stopped their hands and looked at it together.
Jiang Shangyu wanted to kill this squeamish Jiang family disciple, but he had to pretend that he didn't see anything and looked around at the scenery. It was just written on the face: "You are busy, let's go." ”
Fortunately, the aristocratic young man did not rashly open his mouth to call for help, and the man in black opposite him saw Jiang Shangyu and the others, and immediately put away his weapons, and at the same time, he did not stop at the same time, and after turning around and jumping a few times, he actually left under everyone's noses.
The aristocratic young man was also stunned when he held the bow and arrow, and then turned his head to look at Jiang Shangyu's team, and the scene was suddenly a little embarrassing.
Just when Jiang Shangyu, Qi Ming and the others didn't know how to deal with it, the young man opposite suddenly had a bright eye, and shouted at Qi Ming: "But the son of the Qi family in Rudi? It turned out that the young man saw a delicate bird pattern on Qi Ming's chest, which was the family crest of the Qi family. The Qi family crest is very unique, because the Qi family is known as the blood of the Teng snake, but the ornamented bird is like a vein of the Xuanniao, and the legend of the Feng family is the bloodline of the Xuanniao.
Of course, Qi Ming would not hide it, and arched his hand and said: "Fortunately, I will be lucky, is there any inconvenience for Feng Gongzi?" My Qi family is about to go to Tianrui City, and I happened to meet Feng Gongzi, but I want to ask Feng Gongzi to show me the way forward. These words are beautiful, obviously asking Feng Guiluo to help guide the way, but actually want to help Feng Guiluo escort the safety to Tianrui City.
"Dare to disobey your fate?" Feng Guiluo smiled and made a joke, he heard the kindness in Qi Ming's tone, his heart warmed, and he naturally agreed gratefully, so the two immediately merged and went to Tianrui City.
