Chapter 4: The Robbery
The summer sun is scorching, and the trees are lush next to a steep mountain road. On top of a boulder sticking out of Maolin, there sat a black-robed man with a rough face, and a scar slashed diagonally across his face, making him look hideous and terrifying. The shoulder-length hair danced without wind, and a suffocating aura emanated, and the entire forest could not hear the slightest sound of insects, and it was terrifyingly quiet.
Suddenly, the sound of feet stepping on dead branches and leaves broke the terrible silence in the forest, and soon a man also dressed in a black robe slowly walked towards the depths of the forest. When he stepped within a radius of ten meters from the boulder, his feet were stunned, and he felt an invisible killing intent attack, covering him in an instant, cold and piercing, as if even his soul was about to freeze.
He is quite handsome, but his face is too evil, so people can tell at a glance that he is not a decent person. Facing the black-robed man on the boulder, he coughed lightly and said respectfully: "Lord Jingtan, my subordinates have something to report." ”
The Jing Altar Lord on the boulder broke open his eyes, stared at the evil man, and said indifferently, "Coming?"
As he spoke, the invisible killing intent dissipated, and the yin evil man suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly replied, "That's right, their group is not far from here. ”
Nodding, the Jing Altar Lord said coldly, "Are you ready?"
"All are ready and ready to be sent. ”
The evil man glanced at the Jing Altar Lord on the boulder, and continued: "Jing Altar Master, the other party is just a small role, just catching a little girl and a child, why do you need to work your big driver, one person is enough to do it." ”
"You?" A trace of disdain flashed in the eyes of the master of Jing Tan, staring at the evil man, and said in a playful tone: "The little girl and the child are the people designated by the landlord to be arrested, and there are immortals among the people who escort them this time, it is said that they are very powerful, and the master of Wu Tan is afraid that he will not be able to deal with it." ”
Wu Tan Lord's face changed, and he looked at the Jing Tan Lord on the boulder in surprise. Although they are all altar masters, there is a huge difference in status and strength between them, since the other party said that the person who guards is powerful, it is definitely not something he can deal with.
At that moment, he hurriedly asked, "Does the Lord of the Jing Altar have any definite news?"
"I only know that he is an old man, who has followed Zhuo Buqun for decades, and is the second master of the Famous Sword Villa, and the rest is not very clear. ”
Hearing this, the Lord of Wu Tan rolled his eyes and immediately said: "The subordinates of this operation have been the head of the Lord of the Jing Altar, and if there is any arrangement, please give orders." ”
"Hahaha!" Jing Tan smiled very deliberately, which made the scar on his face tremble for a while, and it looked more and more hideous. Laughing wildly, looking at the Wu Tan Master with low eyebrows, Jing Tan Lord nodded with satisfaction and said, "What is the Wu Tan Master's plan?"
"Our subordinates plan to rob as bandits in case our true identities are discovered. ”
The Lord of Jing Tan sneered, and said with disdain: "This is your plan, it is simply a superfluous move, this is within the range of the power of the Famous Sword Villa, who dares to kidnap their young lady and Young Master Sun, you don't need to look at it to know that the Dao is fake." In my opinion, let's rush out of the city directly, except for the women and children, everyone else will be killed, and who else can reveal our identity, not to mention that no one knows my identity at all. ”
Then he stared at the Wu Tan Lord and smiled, and said, "I heard that the two brothers of the Wu Tan Lord are good at hiding their traces, and they escaped the pursuit of the enemy by relying on their own affairs back then?"
Wu Tan's eyes flashed coldly, and then he smiled smugly: "That's right, as long as you are not a master who has reached the peak of immortal martial arts, it is difficult to recognize the reality of your subordinates at a glance." ”
"Good! Good! We'll ...... later."
After discussing the details, the two looked at each other and smiled.
......
On a mountain road from north to south, a carriage drove slowly, and the person in the carriage was a thin old man. The old man's black hair was already silver, and there was a sense of loneliness and loneliness hidden in his eyes, his eyes seemed to be out of focus, and he instinctively waved the whip in his hand. On each side of the carriage was a pair of knights escorted, each with a sword at his waist, all of them with long veins, obviously full of masters.
Zhuo Yingxue sat against the window in the carriage, with light makeup and no makeup, beautiful and refined, with a green silk all in her head, and when her eyes were circulating, the color of sorrow and grief spread frequently. And when her eyes fell on her eight-year-old son Ye Li beside her, her eyes instantly flashed with warmth.
Suddenly, with a soft sigh, a bitter smile climbed up Zhuo Yingxue's face, and she stretched out her arms to hold her son Ye Li.
Ye Li was slightly stunned, looked up at his mother in surprise, and said with some doubts: "Mother, what's wrong?"
Zhuo Yingxue smiled and shook her head, stroked Ye Li's little head, and said softly: "It's nothing, it's just that I'm going home, I just sighed." ”
"Oh......"
Ye Li looked at his mother in confusion, his eyes were suspicious, and then he stared and thought hard.
Suddenly, Ye Li's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Mother, can the child see his grandfather this time?"
Zhuo Yingxue smiled softly and said, "Of course, this time we are celebrating your grandfather's birthday." ”
"Mother, isn't my grandfather very majestic?"
"Where do you say that?"
Ye Li's face was innocent, and he said as a matter of course: "Grandpa is known as a free swordsman, and he must be majestic and extraordinary." ”
With a chuckle, Zhuo Yingxue kissed Ye Li's forehead lightly, and said, "That's just a rumor in the rivers and lakes, your grandfather is an amiable person." ”
Ye Li suddenly pulled Zhuo Yingxue's clothes and said worriedly: "Does Grandma like Li'er?"
"Grandpa always looks forward to seeing him, and he will like it. ”
"But Li'er is a natural waste, will grandpa still like it?"
Zhuo Yingxue was stunned for a moment, looked at Ye Li and said firmly: "I will like it, Li'er is my grandfather's grandson, no matter what Yun'er is, my grandfather will like it." ”
Ye Liyi gritted his teeth and said, "But grandpa doesn't like Li'er." ”
Zhuo Yingxue's face darkened, and she comforted: "Don't worry, Li'er, grandpa is different, he often talks about taking you back to the villa to live permanently, this time my mother plans to leave you in the villa and never return to the Ye family, is Li'er willing to stay?"
Thinking of the Ye family, Ye Lixiao's face was full of gloom, and he nodded when he heard the words: "Li'er doesn't want to go back, no one likes Li'er there, they all hate it." ”
Zhuo Yingxue hugged him and wept gloomily, silent for a long time.
Just as the convoy reached the steep mountain road, a group of black-clothed men rushed out of the dense forest, except for the leader of the group, the rest were covered with face towels, and they rushed towards the convoy with great vigour. This group of people was none other than the Lord of the Jing Altar and his men, who had been waiting for a long time.
The carriage shook violently and stopped, waking up a mother and son in the car. Zhuo Yingxue lifted the curtains, poked her head out, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Next to the carriage, a knight of the guard hurriedly replied, "Miss, someone is blocking the way. ”
"Ah!" Zhuo Yingxue was stunned, this is within the range of the power of the Famous Sword Villa, how can there be bandits? Could it be that she hasn't been home all the year round, what happened to her who doesn't know how to do it? Several questions flashed one after another, Zhuo Yingxue felt that this matter had an unusual taste, and thinking of this, she hugged Ye Li tightly in her arms.
Ten meters away from the carriage, a group of people stopped, firmly blocking the way, the first Jingtan Lord swept his eyes, and finally his eyes fell on the old man who was driving the car. With a flicker of eyebrows, the face of the master of the Jing altar showed a solemn color, and then he pulled out a blood-red long sword from his back, and the bloody murderous aura lingered around the sword body, pointing at the old man, and Sen Ran shouted: "The women and children stay, and the rest of the people will all get out of me!"
