Chapter 34 The Road Ahead is Difficult and the Old Man is Far Away

Everyone followed the prestige, only to see an old man and a young man walking behind them. The two men were dressed in strange attire, the older man should be sixty years old, and his hair was gray. Wearing a dark red long flat shirt, revealing one side of the arm and chest, the flat shirt is divided into many checkered shapes, decorated with some gold wire embellishments, the flat shirt is covered with a yellow long shirt, wearing a high hat that looks like a cockscomb, the left hand holds a dark brown kui bowl, the kui bowl is not gold or jade, I can't see any texture, the right hand holds a long staff, the top of the long staff is divided into three arcs, the three arcs are combined into a peach-shaped, and each arc is covered with three small rings, jingling bells.

The young man looked to be in his twenties, dark-skinned, sturdy, wearing a gray sleeveless shirt, tied tightly with a black belt around his waist, leggings on his calves, and a rucksack diagonally behind his back.

I saw the old man and the young man approaching the front, and the old man recited: "Amitabha, you donors are polite. As he spoke, he leaned his staff in the crook of his arm, put his right palm upright in front of his chest, and bowed.

Several people jumped off the horse, staring at the old and the young vigilantly, and Jack Tu stepped forward and said, "What's the matter with the two?"

The elder stepped forward to salute and said, "Don't doubt it, the two old masters and apprentices are members of the Holy Sect in Kanchanaburi, and they originally came to this Kanchanaburi Prefecture to preach the scriptures. However, for some reason, Nanchanaburi and Kanchanaburi were at odds with each other, and the old master and apprentice could not accommodate here, so they wanted to return to Kanchanaburi. We were unfamiliar with the road, and we couldn't find anyone to help, so we had to walk slowly along this mountain road, which has been going on for about ten days. I am fortunate to see you today, and I think that you must be going through this place and go to the north, so I take the liberty to disturb you, just to be able to go with you and return to your homeland. โ€

Here Jacktu looked at Chenguang, and Chenguang said to Jacktu: "The two of them are just looking for shelter, so take them with them, and give them a ride, but our trip is urgent, and there are no extra horses, I don't know if they can keep up." โ€

Jacktu asked the elder, "We have an urgent matter now, and I am afraid that we will not be able to send you out of this misty mountain, and there are not enough horses, and I am afraid that you will not be able to keep up." โ€

The old man said: "It's okay, you just go forward, the two of us try our best to keep up, and when you have something, just take care of yourself, and the two of us can walk together for a while." โ€

Before Chenguang and Jacktu could answer, Xinzhu poked his head out of the carriage and said, "You can carry those luggage to the carriage, my horse will be ridden by this old master, and we will not be able to do anything about the little master." โ€

When the old man heard this, he said, "Thank you, the female layman." โ€

The old man looked kind, and the young man was also honest and honest, and the few people chatted with them while walking and chatting, but they quickly became acquainted. This old man's Dharma name is Yu Tuo, and the younger one is a disciple of Master Yu Tuo, and his Dharma name is Tuo Shiduo. Both of them are members of the Brahmin Cult in Kanchanaburi, and they came to the mainland of Kanchanaburi three years ago to preach the scriptures.

The teachings of the Brahmanical Religion are that all beings are equal, that misfortune is eliminated, and that suffering is relieved. In the past three years, every time there are believers who have been giving alms, and they have been walking smoothly, but they do not want to think that in recent months, Nanthai and Kanchanaburi have become hostile, and the countries of Ninchanaburi have not allowed his master and apprentice, saying that they are demagogic and have bad intentions, and all places have been ordered to no longer allow them to enter the city to settle down, and he and the two of them have left Ninchanaburi as soon as possible.

It is a pity that his master and apprentice have always adhered to the rules of Brahmanism, and they have no money, and they rely on alms from the believers for food and lodging, but now they are despised by all countries, and they cannot even enter the city, and they cannot even see the believers, let alone receive alms, so that they cannot even solve the problem of food and lodging. They originally wanted to go from Silev to Frecy, and then to Belรฉm, and return to Kanchanaburi through the Golden Corridor, but there were many passes along the way, and they could not cross the passes along the way, so they had to take a detour from the misty mountains to Vaturre, and then along the border between Vatoure and the Eight Kingdoms of Middle-earth, over the mountains and mountains to the northernmost coast of Kanchanaburi, along the coast through the Belรฉm Desert, and then through the Golden Corridor back to the mainland of Kanchanaburi. This road is thousands of miles longer than the previous one.

Chenguang listened to what they said, admired them very much, and then heard Yu Tuo say that the water and water along the way were all solved by Tuoshi, and he couldn't help but look at this seemingly taciturn young man.

The Misty Mountains are exactly what they name suggest, and the further they go, the thicker the fog becomes. The road was constantly disturbed by some fierce beasts, but a few cultivators easily dismissed it. After two more days of walking, the road was already sparse and indiscerning, and rivers and swamps were everywhere, and the occasional showers made the few people on horseback and carriage not as fast as on foot. Toshido had already become the outpost of the whole team, far ahead of the road, behind the people pushing carts and leading horses, miserable.

On the third day, the team came to a mountain col, where several streams in the valley converged to form a small lake, the lake was full of mist, and the surrounding forest was deep and quiet. Xinzhu and Amytis shouted to rest here, and everyone agreed, after walking for many days, people were sleepy and tired, and according to Niu Er, this place was only one-third of the entire trip, and the road ahead was long, and it was really necessary to take a rest.

The carriage and horses were tied, and Jacktu came to Chenguang's side and whispered, "We are being followed." โ€

Startled by the morning light, Jacktu made a gesture not to move, and continued: "Everywhere we went, we followed the road, but after we passed for only a few moments, a bird flew up from the forest, and I have seen this many times in the past two days. Someone must have followed us, but instead of following the road, but on the trees on both sides of the road, it startled the birds. โ€

Chenguang also whispered: "Who will follow us? Notify the others first, so that everyone can be vigilant." โ€

Jacktu said, "The Bamboo King and Emily already know about it, that's why they are clamoring to rest here. The terrain is flat and faces the water, and it will not be easy for those who lurk here to continue to hide. โ€

Chenguang nodded and said, "Then we are waiting for them here." I just hope it's friend and foe. โ€

Jacktu shook his head and said, "If you are a friend, you have been following you for two days, you should have shown up to meet you a long time ago, why have you been hiding and hiding?"

Chenguang said: "In this way, it will be troublesome, the refuge Dao Chief, Niu Er, Yu Tuo and Tuo Shi Duo need to be protected, and I don't know how many people there are on the other side, I am afraid that they will be hurt at that time." โ€

Jack Tu said: "It's better for us to strike first, the person who is following should be in the forest we just walked through at this moment." So saying, he went to the lake.

Chenguang nodded and said, "Then I'll go and investigate first, you and Xinzhu and Emily protect the four of them." โ€

Jacktu smiled and said, "All three of you can go, as long as I stay and protect them." So saying, he went to the lake.

Xinzhu and Amytis walked over and asked Chenguang, "How did you discuss?"

Chenguang sighed and said, "I don't have to go to the miscellaneous work, you protect a few of them." As he spoke, he took his mouth and scolded the refuge and others by the Nu Lake.

Guo Xinzhu said: "I went with you to meet the enemy, and they all stayed here." As he spoke, he didn't wait for Chenguang to answer, and turned to a few people by the lake: "Let's rest here for one night today, and then we will go around tomorrow, let's go around first and see if we can find something fresh and delicious." With that, he took the morning light and went into the forest. Amytis waved her hand, stopped talking, and watched the two of them burrow into the woods, and finally turned and headed for the lake.

Guo Xinzhu took Chenguang and walked for a while, attached to Chenguang's ear and said carefully: "The other party is on the three trees in front of us, about seven or eight people, we will act separately after a while, you go to the left, I go to the right, and then suddenly lean in the middle, force them to appear, and see who is sacred first." โ€

Chenguang nodded. The two of them took a few more steps, and each flashed to the side with a "whoosh".

Before the two of them could make a move, a few black-clothed people jumped down from the three big trees, and rushed towards Chenguang and Guan Xinzhu respectively.

These black-clothed people are all dressed in black tights, covered with black scarves, and hold a short blade with cold light in their hands, and their movements are so fast that they can be seen as people who have practiced the "Martial Scriptures" at a glance.

Chenguang didn't dare to slack off, pulled out the golden stick, and faced a man in black in front of him is a stick, these people in black seemed to know that the golden stick in Chenguang's hand was powerful, and he didn't fight with Chenguang at all, his body flickered, and he turned into two identical black-clothed people, Chenguang was startled, but he could only sweep the golden stick over with a hard head, "poof" and "poof" two soft sounds, the golden stick swept the two black-clothed people, but only a little white smoke came out, and the black-clothed people disappeared, and the original two were fake.

Chenguang only listened to the sound of a sharp blade breaking through the sky behind him, and hurriedly ran the Dao rhyme, and the waning moon on his waist instantly moved to the back, and in the flow of Dao rhyme, the waning moon more than doubled, protecting the back of Chenguang. The waning moon had just arrived, and with a sound of gold and iron, the man in black had already appeared behind Chenguang, and the short blade in his hand was in the middle of the waning moon.

The other two black-clothed men also quietly appeared on Chenguang's side, each holding a short blade left and right to attack Chenguang. Chenguang was waiting for this time, the Dao rhyme in his hand flowed, bursts of light blue light spread out from Chenguang's body, the three black-clothed people seemed to be stuck in the mire, walking like a turtle crawling, Chenguang held a golden stick in his hand, knocked a stick on each of the three black-clothed people, and then retracted the Dao rhyme, and the three black-clothed people were like mud, slowly falling.

Just when Chenguang thought that he had solved the opponent and was about to go to support Guo Xinzhu, a puff of flames whistled and sprayed towards Chenguang, and Chenguang was so frightened that he had to roll on the ground, and he could avoid the flames, but he only felt that his arm was spicy, his left arm had been burned by the flames, and half of his sleeve was burned into ashes, and the pain was piercing.

Chen Guang couldn't bear the pain in his arm, so he quickly hid behind a big tree, and then looked at the place where he was just now, two men in black were lying on the ground, and the other had been burned to ashes by the flames, leaving a black charcoal with wisps of white smoke.

On the other side, Guo Xinzhu was also in a bitter battle, and there were five people besieging her, four of them were the same as the black-clothed men besieging Dawnlight, but the other one was a little different. The man in black was wrapped in a large cloak, and he couldn't even make out his figure. But this man in black acted more weirdly and erratically than the other men in black, suddenly came to the ground, attacked a few moves according to Guo Xinzhu's feet, and then immediately floated back, and suddenly fell vertically from the top of Guo Xinzhu's head, according to the top of his head and a few moves, although there were not many tricks, but it made Guo Xinzhu very uncomfortable, plus the other four black-clothed people harassed him next to him, and he was forced into danger by them for a while.

Chenguang was also restrained, the one hiding in the bushes I don't know who it was, Chenguang couldn't show his face at all, as long as he got out of the cover of the big tree, he would be surrounded by a canopy of flames, Chenguang clashed several times, but he couldn't avoid these flames, looking at the other side of the Xinzhu left and right, although he was anxious, but he was helpless.

Just when Chenguang was about to rush out of the big tree again, intending to block the flames with the waning moon, an angry shout came from the bushes: "The rats in Bei Chan Prefecture will only hurt people with secret arrows, and they will fight!"
