Chapter 244: Rest assured

On the fourth day, the carriage finally entered the boundaries of Yongcheng.

As soon as they entered the territory of Yongcheng, the middle-aged couple in the carriage obviously looked much nervous, and more than forty guards around the carriage were also required to guard around the carriage every inch, as if the two expected something to happen.

The middle-aged man glanced at Dan Xuan, and said lightly: "Young man, entering the boundary of Yongcheng is no better than the foot of the imperial city, where bandits are rampant and bandits are rampant, if you encounter danger on the way, you must follow us, with me and Hu Zhentian, plus my forty brave and warlike guards, I will definitely be able to ensure that you reach Yongcheng safely, but if you don't listen to the advice and run around, then I can't save your name!"

The middle-aged man's words were sincere, Dan Xuan knew that this person was not bad-hearted, and he was also warning himself by saying these words, which was nothing more than for safety reasons. So, without refutation, Dan Xuan nodded and replied, "In this way, thank you very much!"

The middle-aged man hummed softly, then straightened his face and fell silent.

In the evening of the same day, an accident finally occurred during the otherwise peaceful journey, and a group of robbers of more than 100 people stopped the procession.

However, Dan Xuan originally thought that a big war was inevitable, but he never thought that when the middle-aged man went out and showed his face, the bandit leaders were stunned, and then he apologized vigorously, and called the middle-aged man "Li Ye", and in the end, he retreated in disgrace!

Dan Xuan and Yuan Yupeng were both a little shocked, Yuan Yupeng leaned into Dan Xuan's ear and said: "This middle-aged man is not simple, I heard the master say that among the three major families in Yongcheng, there is a family surnamed Li, I don't know what it has to do with this Li Ye?"

Dan Xuan smiled slightly when he heard this, and he was already sure in his heart that this Li Ye was probably the Li family in Yongcheng.

"In addition to the Li family, which other two families are there in Yongcheng?" Dan Xuan asked curiously.

Yuan Yupeng glanced at Hu Zhentian, and then whispered: "I heard the master say that the three major families in Yongcheng are the Li family, the Hu family, and the Guan family, and the three families have almost divided all the mining areas in Yongcheng, among which the Guan family is the most powerful. ”

"Oh?" Dan Xuan looked at the middle-aged man standing straight outside the carriage, he had the illusion that this middle-aged man was very likely to be the head of the Li family in Yongcheng.

"It seems that along the way, we may not necessarily be peaceful......" Dan Xuan's eyes were far-reaching, looking at the middle-aged man surnamed Li and said lightly.

Yuan Yupeng frowned his thick eyebrows, and asked puzzledly: "Why? You see those robbers, they are very jealous of this middle-aged man surnamed Li, nodding their heads, they don't look like they can do it!"

Dan Xuan shook his head with a light smile, but did not explain, his eyes swept over the more than forty guards behind the middle-aged man surnamed Li, these guards are just some spirit masters below three or four stars, if someone really deliberately leaves these people on the road forever, as long as they are well prepared, these guards are definitely cannon fodder!

"Senior brother, if there is danger on the road, you can follow me by your own side, and I will definitely be able to protect you!" Dan Xuan said with a somewhat serious face.

Yuan Yupeng also felt Dan Xuan's seriousness, although his brain was dull, but he knew that his junior brother would never harm himself, since he said this, he must have his reason, so he just did it.

Thinking of this, Yuan Yupeng nodded firmly.

Hitting the road again, the team picked up speed noticeably. In the carriage, the middle-aged man surnamed Li put down the curtain of the carriage, retracted his gaze, his expression was a little serious, and the beautiful woman looked at her husband and also felt that the man surnamed Li was unusual, and couldn't help asking, "Master, is there anything difficult?"

The middle-aged man wanted to speak again and again, but finally shook his head and comforted: "Don't think too much, there is no difficulty!"

Dan Xuan hid aside and sneered, this middle-aged man's demeanor had betrayed his words, and it was obvious that this middle-aged man was a little restless.

Hu Zhentian also saw the worry between the middle-aged man's eyebrows, and said with a big grin: "This gentleman, you don't have to worry so much, we are still three days and three nights away from Yongcheng, my father is the head of the Yongcheng Hu family, Hu Pingyang has a relationship with the robbers and bandits of this generation, with me here, they don't dare to do what you do!

Hu Zhentian patted his chest and assured that the beautiful woman threw a grateful expression towards Hu Zhentian, although she knew that it was unlikely that Hu Zhentian might be used, after all, her husband had a greater deterrent effect on these robbers! It stands to reason that no one dared to touch the robbers along the way, but the beautiful woman could clearly feel her husband's worry, so what was he worried about!

At this moment, behind a hillside thirty miles away from Yongcheng, a large group of men and horses were lurking there, all of them dressed in black, and a few people led by them were sticking their heads out to look at the wide pipe below the hillside.

One of the burly men, frowning, asked another man in black who was also burly, and asked, "Second brother, could it be a mistake, the guy surnamed Li won't take a detour, right?"

The man known as the second brother looked into the distance and shook his head slowly, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Fourth brother, you are too worried! I don't think so, we have already released such an informant, and besides, the person who betrayed him also sent a message to him, saying that they will arrive here this evening, I see that the sun has just set now, maybe they are about to arrive!"

The man known as the third brother was obviously a little excited when he heard this, turned around to the hundreds of people behind him, and shouted: "Brothers, keep an eye on me, kill Li Jingtian, the old immortal, the fourth master, I invite you to go to the best green building in Yongcheng, and sleep the most sassy girls!"

The 100 subordinates lurking behind him all cheered in unison.

If the middle-aged man surnamed Li in Danxuan's carriage was here at this time, he would definitely recognize that these two people on the hillside at this time were Guan Tiandao and Guan Tianlun of the Yongcheng Guan family, the Guan family had a total of four brothers, all of whom were cultivation wizards, the eldest brother Guan Tianba was a genuine seven-star Lingwei, the second Guan Tiandao was a four-star Lingwei, and the third Guan Tianhui was the most genius, with a five-star Lingwei, and the fourth Guan Tianlun cultivation was the worst, and his mind was the simplest, it was a one-star Lingwei!

The four brothers of the Guan family are the four local tyrants in Yongcheng, the four of them have the greatest power in Yongcheng, and they own the most mining areas, and the mining area owned by the other two major families in Yongcheng, the Li family and the Hu family, is probably less than three-quarters of the Guan family. However, the Guan family was still not satisfied, and had to annex the other two families, so there was this scene on the hillside.

On the pipeline, Li Jingtian's family and Dan Xuan didn't know that just four miles away, there was a large group of people and horses lying in ambush there, vowing to leave their lives behind.

Dan Xuan lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the southern sky, the rolling hills in the distance looked sacred in the afterglow of the setting sun, and the wind blew in the distance, and the wild grass was restless. I don't know why, looking at the hillside in the distance, Dan Xuan always has a feeling of unease.

Putting down the curtain, Dan Xuan frowned and asked, "Mr. Li, is there only one way to Yongcheng?" ”

Dan Xuan was telling the truth, he did feel a trace of unusual taste.

However, Mr. Li didn't speak, but the beautiful woman raised her willow eyebrows, smiled and joked with Dan Xuan, and said: "Yo Yo Yo, the scholar knows that he is scared? Didn't I tell you, as long as you follow us, there will definitely be no problem, the horse thieves on this road dare not touch the people of our family, you can take care of your heart and put your stomach!"

Dan Xuan laughed dryly when he heard this, but said lightly: "That's good......"

Seeing that Dan Xuan still seemed a little uneasy, Li Jingtian also said: "Young man, don't worry, with me and Hu Gongzi, the ordinary thieves and rats can't help us, and besides, we still have forty guards, with them, you can rest assured!"

Dan Xuan nodded slightly when he heard this, but he thought in his heart, I hope so.
