Volume 1: Conquest of the Quartet Chapter 21: Interception
"Young master, how are these people settled. Shi Youshan pointed to a group of people kneeling on the ground outside the door.
"Go, prepare a few more tables, let them come in to eat, and after eating, if you are willing to stay, give some money and clothes if you are not willing to stay, and let them go. Ye Wu commanded.
Shi Youshan was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and then he spoke: "Young master, our thick clothes are not enough...... I'm afraid ......"
Ye Wu was silent for a while, and then said, "I still have some clothes in the cabinet, let's see them separately." ”
Shi Youshan hesitated, after all, those clothes were worth a lot of money, and he wanted to dissuade him, but he saw Ye Wu glaring at him.
"No matter how expensive the clothes are, they are still for people to wear, and besides, there are so many clothes in the car, how can I wear them? Ye Wu said.
Shi Youshan nodded and began to make arrangements.
Jiang Ruyan looked at the child standing in the distance.
"Come, to my sister. She spread out her hands and motioned for the child to come.
The child stood in place for a while, but finally threw himself into Jiang Ruyan's arms, feeling Jiang Ruyan's body temperature, the child's eyes were moist, and tears swirled back and forth in his eyes several times, but he stubbornly did not let them fall.
"Don't worry, no one is bullying you. Jiang Ruyan comforted, she took out a handkerchief from her arms and tended the boy's wounds.
"The meal is here! Ladies and gentlemen, wait a long time!" the shopkeeper shouted, and then saw him bring the hot meal to the table.
"Let's eat. Ye Wu raised his chopsticks to signal.
Jiang Ruyan led the boy to the table.
"I'm sorry, I wanted to help you, but I ended up causing you so much trouble......" She looked at Ye Wu guiltily.
"It's fine. Ye Wumo rubbed the tip of his nose, "Xiao Er!" ”
When Xiao Er heard Ye Wu shouting, he put the tablecloth on his shoulder and responded, "A set of dishes and chopsticks." ”
After a while, Xiao Er brought the dishes and chopsticks.
"Eat. Jiang Ruyan filled the bowl with rice, and handed some other dishes that children like to eat to the boy's side.
The boy looked at the dishes in the bowl, the tears in his eyes could no longer be held back, and they burst out together with the grievances in his heart for many years, and he picked up the rice bowl and devoured it.
"Okay, slow down, and. Jiang Ruyan looked at the little boy, the corners of her eyes unconsciously looked to the side, and found that Ye Wu had been looking at this side, and her face suddenly turned red.
Ye Wu noticed Jiang Ruyan's expression, he coughed lightly and asked the boy, "Do you remember where you live?"
The boy shook his head.
Ye Wu thought for a while and said, "Can you ...... Would you like to follow us?"
The boy nodded.
"As long as I can eat and not be beaten, let me do anything......" He swallowed the food in his mouth and looked at Ye Wu.
"What's your name?" Jiang Ruyan's gentle voice sounded.
The boy paused.
"I don't have a name......" he bowed his head.
"Since you want to follow us, you can't do it without a name...... Ye Wu frowned, "You will be called Ye Ming in the future." ”
The boy listened to Ye Wu's words, and his joy suddenly appeared, having a name was his dream for many years, and he looked at Ye Wu, and his eyes changed.
"Alright, let's enjoy tonight, tomorrow we're going to sleep in the open. Ye Wu looked at the two.
After being full of wine and food, Ye Wu walked out of the door, and as soon as he went out, he saw Shi Youshan and others busy.
"What are you up to?" he asked, curiously.
"Young master, you don't know," Shi Youshan put down the thick cloth in his hand, "Nanzhou is not comparable to the national capital, it is covered by ice and snow all year round, and you can feel the sudden drop in temperature when you step into the border, and you really can't finish without some cold protection measures." ”
"Oh......" Ye Wu nodded, he rolled up his sleeves and followed Shi Youshan to prepare for the cold.
Early the next morning, Ye Wu got up early, settled the account with the innkeeper at the front desk, and left under the enthusiastic eyes of all the guys in the store.
Today is a coincidence, encountered a few days of rare sunny days, the group just stepped on this Yangguan Road, basking in the warm sun into Nanzhou.
The wide road was about to end, replaced by the winding and rugged forest path, Ye Wu looked at the dense woods on both sides in front of him, and a bad thought surged in his heart, out of caution, he pulled the horse rope.
"Stop. ”
Seeing this, the people around looked around vigilantly.
Indeed, as Ye Wu expected, there was indeed an ambush in this dense forest, and the ambush was none other than the slave trader who had left the bill one step ahead of them.
"Big brother, are we exposed?" said one of the people in the grass, walking up to the vendor.
The slave trader glared at him fiercely.
"Shut up and don't move!"
Ye Wu looked at the swaying figure, and concluded in his heart that there was an ambush here, and this ambush person could think of the slave trader who left a day earlier.
Thinking of this, a trace of killing intent flashed in Ye Wu's eyes.
'I've given you a chance, you've got it. He looked at the grass on one side playfully, looked up to the sky and sighed: "There are dense forests on both sides, and there is no one around, you really know how to pick a place." ”
When the vendor heard this, his face instantly sank, the other party had long known that there were people here, and he had been waiting here for a long time like a fool, and he felt that his IQ had been insulted.
"Kill! that girl's goods can definitely buy a lot of money!" he rushed out of the woods first, shouting with his knife raised.
The voice sounded, and I saw dozens of people rushing out of the forest with long knives and killing Ye Wu's side.
"Protect the young master!" Shi You shouted, and the horse rope was pulled and protected in front of Ye Wu.
The rest of the people pulled out their swords at their waists, and in a circular shape, protected Ye Wu and the others in the middle.
In close combat, dozens of traders besieged more than 20 people in Shiyoushan, but instead of gaining the upper hand, they were defeated.
"Who are these people!" the vendor looked at this fierce man, and secretly scolded in his heart that he had kicked the iron plate.
"Immortal Master, you still don't make a move?" he shouted back.
"Ye Wu, get out of the way!" came from the jade pendant.
Ye Wu raised his head, only to see a fireball flying towards him, he was shocked, and as soon as he stepped on the horse's back, he jumped up with Jiang Ruyan.
Behind him, he heard the neighing of the horses, and then they were engulfed in the fireball, and the flames dissipated, and the soldiers did not cause any casualties, but only took pity on the horses.
'Is it a monk?' Ye Wu thought in his heart, his face became gloomy, he didn't expect to meet the monk again so soon.
"Demon law! demon law!"
"Run!"
“......”
There was a commotion behind him, but it was the men in black who were calling.
Ye Wu looked in the direction of the fireball, and saw a young man in a robe standing here.
Morale is starting to falter, and he must be dealt with quickly. He thought and shouted, "Youshan, knock me out of those who scream!"
The young man looked at Ye Wu with a sneer on the corner of his mouth at the same time, he glanced at Ye Wu and then shifted his gaze to Jiang Ruyan.
"This ......" The young man swallowed, and a trace of evil thought welled up in his heart.
Ye Wu looked at the young man's malicious gaze and frowned.
"What do you think?" he asked in his mind.
"It's weird, he'...... It's a mortal. Nightless looked at the young man in the robe strangely.
"Oh, mortal?" Ye Wuxin immediately became interested in the young man.
"You stay here and don't move. He admonished, and drew his sword to leave
Jiang Ruyan pulled the corner of Ye Wu's clothes.
"When is it, you still go to show your energy. She scolded, and then pulled Ye Wu back.
"It's okay......" Ye Wu smiled confidently, and then his face turned cold and rushed towards the young man in the Taoist robe.
Jiang Ruyan knew that Ye had no strength, and in a hurry, she shouted at Shi Youshan: "Deputy General Shi!
Shi Youshan turned around, but saw Ye Wu still flashing past him.
"Qiu Kui!" he shouted.
"Mere mortals, vainly trying to fight against immortals!
It really causes chaos for people, how can such a person lead well. Qiu Kui kicked the robber away, raised his hand, and prepared to strike.
Ye Wu didn't dodge, picked up a big stone and threw it at the fireball. Boom, the dust and smoke were everywhere, the stone chips were flying, and Ye Wu stepped on the dust and smoke to come to the young man.
'This ......' Qiu Kui was stunned, and put down his raised hand.
"What!" Seeing this, the young man was completely panicked, he screamed in surprise, and wanted to escape, but as soon as he took a step, a white light flashed into his eyes.
"Ahh
When the young man in the Taoist robe looked up again, he saw a long sword against his throat, he swallowed his saliva, the Adam's apple and the tip of the sword passed by, so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe, his eyes swept to the companions around him, but he saw that those companions had already been treated by Shi Youshan and others at the cost of zero casualties, and they squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands one by one, extremely embarrassed.
"Don't kill me!" the young man in the robe begged for mercy.
"Damn, Lao Tzu spent so much money for you, you have this ability? I'm really blind. The slave trader looked at the young man in the Taoist robe and spat on the ground with disdain.
"Want to live?" Ye Wu smiled, the tip of the knife in his hand brushing back and forth on his neck.
"Yes!" The young man in the Dao robe didn't think about it, and nodded hurriedly.
Ye Wu leaned over.
"Yes, you answer me, why can you use spells as a mortal!"
"I'm ......" The man in the Taoist robe seemed to have been caught in a dead hole, and his eyes changed instantly.
"Very good, don't you say no, then you can only grieve the immortal master. The corners of Ye Wu's mouth grinned, "Come on, change my Immortal Master into a cooler outfit, tie your hands and tie them to the back of the horse." ”
"Yes. Vice Captain Qi Yun took the order and took him down.
"What about the others?" Shi Youshan asked.
"Take it away, and wait until you get to Nanzhou City to make a decision. Ye Wu said.
"Yes, take it away!" Shi Youshan greeted, and the convoy continued to march.
