Chapter 8: First Encounter in the Woods
Sun Xiaofei went to Black Bull's house to look for Caroline, but he didn't see her, and Black Bull told him that Caroline was not here, and she went to the garden to help. Sun Xiaofei had no choice but to take Xiaohui to the outskirts of the city to meet Caroline, who helped in her mother's planting garden, where many varieties of flowers and herbs were planted and supplied to some shops and pharmacies in the city. The garden is a short distance from the city of Glasdy.
However, this distance is not difficult for Sun Xiaofei. Walking through the hustle and bustle of the city, walking on the green grass on both sides of the suburban road, Sun Xiaofei felt a sense of relaxation in his heart, immersed in it with his whole body and mind, and experienced that he had never had a comfortable relaxation, and the long-lost breath of nature was refreshing. Cultivators pursue to be close to nature, to perceive nature, and to take nature as a teacher. Every flower and grass between heaven and earth can be a teacher, and even a grain of sand and a small speck of dust, and everything in the world contains its subtle heavenly truth.
Sun Xiaofei knew that the most rare thing in cultivating was a breakthrough in his state of mind, and with such an opportunity, naturally, the flowers, plants, birds, and beasts on the road, Sun Xiaofei carefully experienced them, and walked slowly, but his spiritual power and soul increased at an unimaginable rapid rate. Along the way, Sun Xiaofei benefited a lot, better than his years of penance.
In this way, Sun Xiaofei walked and stopped as he wanted, and when he was about to reach Caroline's mountain forest, Sun Xiaofei suddenly slowed down and looked ahead.
At the end of the road not far ahead, I faintly heard some voices coming from the woods. Sun Xiaofei took Xiaohui to quietly approach the front, find a hidden place to hide, and take a look. There were a few people in the woods, and the two people on the field were surrounded in a circle.
"Old man, it's none of your business here, get out of the way for Young Master Ben. A shrill voice said. It was a tall, thin young man who wore a sky-blue gown and a gloomy sneer on his pale face. Next to him stood two middle-aged men, both of whom looked like they were full of muscles and powerful, and they should be the young man's guards.
Sun Xiaofei took a closer look and recognized that the blue-shirted young man on the field was the youngest son of the city lord, Thatcher, relying on the power of the family, he had nothing to do on weekdays, and he did some things that were angry and disgusting.
In front of him were an old man and a young man, the old man standing in front of a delicate maiden, surrounded by several Thatcher servants, who were watching them both with fierce eyes.
"Grandpa Fiat, I don't want to go, I'm not afraid of them, wait for Senior Brother Allen to come, I will definitely not spare them. The girl in a lilac dress said in a coquettish voice. Although he was surrounded by Thatcher and others, he still seemed quite calm.
"What are you messing around? Miss Gennie, you go quickly, the old slave is resisting here. The old man scolded her.
When Thatcher saw that the two of them were arguing here, he couldn't help but show a light smile on his face, his expression was cold, he shook his head slightly, and instructed the people next to him to say: "Do you want to go? You hurt my people, and you want to run there? You go and grab the girl for me and take her back to the house." ”
The two middle-aged men beside Thatcher said, "Yes." The momentum on the two of them suddenly unleashed, and both of them were not low-level swordsmen, so they naturally had a fierce momentum. The two of them each took out a big iron sword and walked slowly towards the old and young. The other henchmen also let out a sneer, and gradually gathered in the middle to get closer to the past, and it seemed that the situation of these two people was more auspicious.
Sun Xiaofei looked at this scene and couldn't help frowning, feeling a little unaccustomed to Thatcher's approach. is thinking about whether to make a move to rescue the two people on the field, and is worried that Thatcher will recognize his origin and bring unnecessary trouble to his family. Thatcher's family was wealthy, and his father was one of those who spoke in Gransdy. Once Sun Xiaofei's family is implicated, I am afraid that it will be a catastrophe. Thinking of this, it made Sun Xiaofei hesitate a little, the two people on the field were not related to him, why did he offend Thatcher for the sake of these two people who didn't know each other?
"Wait! We are members of the Dewey family of the Purple Moon Country, you can't touch us. Fiat had no choice but to report to his house and come out, hoping that when Thatcher heard about it, he would let them go.
"The Dewey family of the Purple Moon Country?" Thatcher listened, and his face couldn't help but show some hesitation. Although Sun Xiaofei had never heard of the Dewey family of the Purple Moon Kingdom, when he saw Thatcher's appearance, he also knew that this was a big family, otherwise, Thatcher would not have listened to it and would not dare to act rashly.
Fiat was very anxious and accompanied the eldest lady out to play, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing. This is all to blame Young Master Allen, why did he leave the eldest lady, causing the eldest lady to be furious and offending this evil young man in the city. Now in this situation, who else can save their master and servant?
"Are you really from the Dewey family?" Thatcher asked suddenly after a moment's thought. There was a look of hesitation on his face, and he didn't know what countermeasures he was thinking.
"Yes, if you don't believe me, you can send someone to check it out now. "Fiat can only tell the truth now, and dare not hide anything. All he asked for now was to be able to delay and wait for someone else to deliver.
Unexpectedly, his thoughts seemed to be seen through by Thatcher. Thatcher suddenly changed his words and stopped paying attention to Fiat's words, which couldn't help but make the hearts of the two of them sink, knowing that there would inevitably be a battle below.
"Old man, if you want to delay time, let's not say whether you are from the Dewey family, and no one knows, even if you are the Dewey family and fall on Lao Tzu's territory, you have to listen to me obediently. Come with me honestly. If you are in a good mood, you will suffer less. Thatcher sneered a few times and said in a deep voice.
His subordinates heard his words and approached one after another, and the shape suddenly became tense. Fiat took out his short dagger and greeted it, and called out from the other side: "Miss, you leave from behind, these people are resisted by the old slave." ”
"Grandpa Fiat, let's go together, don't be afraid of them, see what they can do to us?" Ji Ni, a swordsman herself, rushed forward with a sword in hand. The sword in Geni's hand is not comparable to the dagger in Fiat's hand, not only is the sword body shiny and beautifully decorated, but also has a wind core embedded in the handle. This sword is chaotic to use, can interfere with the enemy's vision, and the wind core reduces the drag in the air, and the person who uses the sword can move faster and lighter.
Seeing this sword, even Thatcher, who had seen many valuable weapons, couldn't help but light up in his eyes, and his expression showed a trace of greed.
Ji Ni's sword attack was a middle-aged man in a blue shirt, this person was already an eighth-level swordsman, and his swordsmanship was naturally not low, seeing Ji Ni's fierceness, but his cultivation was only at the level of a fourth-level swordsman, he didn't care at the moment, he laughed and said: "It's just right!" The iron sword in his hand did not shy away, and the sword skills were displayed directly to meet him, and soon the two of them fought together.
The shape on the field changed immediately, the sword shadows flew, the light flew, and both sides took out what they had learned in their lives, and the fight was inseparable. Sun Xiaofei secretly approached inside, and he was ready to rescue Ji Ni's master and servant at a critical moment, preventing them from falling into Thatcher's hands. In order to avoid being recognized by Thatcher, Sun Xiaofei lurked alone, and at the same time, told Xiaohui not to make a sound, and hid in the shade of a tree to watch the changes.
There is a huge difference in the strength of the two sides, and the middle-aged man is obviously at ease, and the recruiting momentum is self-contained, and the sword skills are one move after another, and the offensive is endless. Ji Ni exhausted all her sword skills, and she was only barely able to fight against the middle-aged man, if it weren't for the middle-aged man's fear of the wind sword's profit, I was afraid that she would lose even faster.
On the other side, Fiat skillfully fought another middle-aged man with his flexible body skills, this middle-aged man's sword skills are higher than Fiat's stunts, but Fiat is extremely sensitive, belonging to the category of thieves and assassins, and it is not easy to be knocked down for a while.
Ji Ni stabbed with a sword, and when she saw that the other party did not dodge or dodge, she was also ruthless in her heart, and decided to do her best to injure one first. As soon as the two swords were handed over, a little spark burst out, and the middle-aged man's sword skills were powerful and heavy, suppressing Ji Si's sword. Ji Ni's sword swirled, leaving a scar on the opponent's sword, and then slashed towards the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man was not surprised, the long sword suddenly flashed when he was approaching, the sword body swept by his side, and the iron sword in his hand was suddenly thrown into the other hand, and he suddenly cut Ji Ni's wrist.
This time the movement changed too quickly, Ji Ni was in pain, and the sword in her hand was unstable, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly wanted to retreat. How could the middle-aged man let her get her wish, the iron sword changed its angle and was already on Ji Ni's pink neck. It turns out that this person can use the iron sword with both his left and right hands, and no matter who fights him, he will not be able to fall for it without understanding it in advance.
Thatcher laughed and asked the middle-aged man to bring people over. The middle-aged man withdrew the iron sword, and pushed Ji Ni with his other hand, and immediately pushed Ji Ni to Thatcher, Fiat saw that Ji Ni was caught, and his heart was furious, and in a panic, another middle-aged man took the opportunity to slap the back of the sword, Fiat was shocked and flew out, blood splattered from his mouth, and the injury was not light.
Sun Xiaofei saw this scene, knew that Fiat and the others were in a bad situation, and was about to rescue them, but in the sense, he found that a Dao aura was rapidly approaching, and before determining the identity of the person who came, Sun Xiaofei had to press the impulse to make a move, see who the person was and then make the next step.
At this time, a black shadow shot towards the place where Ji Ni was, and Thatcher, who bore the brunt of it, was shaken away by a huge force in Cangcuo and rolled to the ground. The sudden change surprised everyone on the field, and countless pairs of eyes focused on it, but they saw a man dressed in white standing proudly, white clothes were better than snow, and his jade face was frosty, and there was a momentum of not being angry and arrogant.
I only heard Ji Ni cry out in surprise: "Senior Brother Allen, you are finally here." ”
The man nodded at her, in response to her words, and his face did not come to the person who was none other than Jisi's senior brother Allen. With blonde hair and glittering eyes, he stood there like a sword about to be unsheathed, giving the impression that if he didn't move, he would be shocked.
