As soon as these words came out, the two guards stopped on the spot, and both of them frowned, quite defensive.

Zhou Qi walked forward with a steady pace, walked to the front, and said: "It's better like this, now my carriage can't run, there should be some distance in front of the pass, you have horses and I have cars, how about cooperation?" ”

The two guards looked at each other on the spot, and their master only ordered that the carriage must be snatched back, but he didn't say that he would take the three men with him!

And Zhou Qi is also an afterthought, now that the horse has an injury to his leg, it is obvious that he can't run, what else can he do?

At that time, he only thought that they were bandits, and he didn't think about it that much at all, of course, he couldn't let them run away when he encountered bandits, so he aimed at the horse's legs, but now he also reacted, so they couldn't go!

At present, their location is close to the pass, which is the critical place between the two countries, and the border is deserted, where else can they get horses?

Although the person on the other side didn't want to provoke him, he had no other way.

The princess had the escort come and steal the carriage, apparently not wanting to give up her entourage, so cooperation was the best solution.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Zhou Qi also knew their predicament, the princess's safety was important, how could the guards dare to decide easily?

"In this way, this little brother has a leg injury, I have some bandaged things here that can be dealt with for him simply, you go back and report to your master, how about it?"

The two of them were slightly stunned, and finally the injured guard nodded to the other, "Don't delay the master's important business." ”

The other person seemed to have received an order, and without saying a word, the horses galloped over in the distance, and it seemed that he had gone back to return first, and when he had finished his return, he had to come back to pick up the carriage, and then go to pick up the so-called princess together, which was quite troublesome, noble, it was hypocritical.

"Wait!" Zhou Qi shouted again, and then pointed to his carriage: "Load this carriage." ”

Obviously, the two didn't expect him to be so generous and trusting, surprise flashed in their eyes, and they came back to load the horse without a sound.

Their horses had rested long enough, and now they were full of energy, and the carriage galloped away, while the wounded escort remained.

Da Liu had already taken down the things that should be taken, and asked Zhou Qi in a low voice: "Son, what if they run away by themselves?" ”

Zhou Qi slapped him, "Look, is there any other way here?" ”

At this time, Da Liu touched his head, he really thought too much......

There was only one avenue in front of the pass, and the further they went, the narrower it became, and this was the only way for them to go further.

"Brother, you can't keep your leg."

Zhou Qi was holding a knife, and he couldn't bear to do it, mainly because the bullet was in the middle of the bone, and he didn't know medical skills.

As soon as he heard this, there was a look of forbearance in the guard's eyes, and you didn't beat him? Now he has thought that when the princess arrives, he will definitely break this person into pieces! But when he said this, he finally spoke: "What kind of weapon is this son using?" ”

"Well, the crossbow."

Zhou Qi replied perfunctorily, and the tip of the knife was immediately aimed at the ankle and stabbed down!

"Humph!"

Instantly in pain, the guard's forehead was full of green tendons, his fists trembled, but he clenched his teeth and only let out a soft snort.

Zhou Qi was a little impressed by him, the guns and bullets in this bone crack are not as good as in the flesh, the so-called pain to the bones is probably this feeling, three times after meeting, he originally thought that these guards were ordinary entourage, but now they look like well-trained military people.

When the bullet was taken out, Zhou Qi asked all parties to come over to bandage him, and he was not willing to do anything about touching the man's stinky feet.

Probably sensing something strange, the guard also stopped everyone's movements, and only took the cotton cloth and bandaged it himself.

Zhou Qi, on the other hand, walked to the side of the river, washed his bloody hands, and suddenly looked up at the sky.

The vast world is dotted with stars.

It was close to midnight, and the weather here was already cold, and the river breeze blew, and he shivered.

And at this moment, a huge, short, and stubby with a body of fifteen came out of the bushes, and there was a dense group of people following behind it, but Zhou Qi was unaware of it, still looking up and counting the little stars.

"Childe, be careful!!"

Da Liu originally came to talk to his son-in-law, but when he saw this scene, he was frightened on the spot, and his two pupils widened.

Zhou Qi also immediately turned around, and what caught his eyes was this group of worms, even if he lived for two lifetimes, he felt his scalp tingle!

What's the difference?

What are they!?

Of course he knew about it, but he had never seen such a large number of meanders, densely covering the entire path in front of him.

And it's so big.,This special seems to be mutated.,One foot has the width of the back of the hand.,The front and back long feet are thin and long.,The pure natural ecology of ancient times is really nutritious.,Raising insects......

If it weren't for the fact that Da Liu was still ahead, and the scene and temperature in front of him hadn't changed, he would have thought that he had traveled to where he had gone, but the facts told him that he was still in this ancient world, and he was still in the critical Xiju country!

"......"

Zhou Qi was instantly stunned, looked at a stone in the river, and immediately jumped up.

In his memory, the worm likes to be clammy and cold, but he will not take the initiative to attack people, and the toxin is average, and he can't die and be infected with skin diseases at most, but this group still seems to be mutated, how does he know what's going on?

Fortunately, these worms are still normal, and they are still afraid of water, which will make him jump into the river, and they will not dare to come.

A large number of grasshoppers crawled on the rocks not far from the river, some got in and some drilled out, the upper layer of the grasshoppers fell, and the lower layer of the grasshoppers immediately turned over, and the gathered grasshoppers kept tumbling, and the picture was very disgusting.

"Childe! Wait until I burn these things! ”

Da Liu's voice also attracted the attention of the other two, and all directions rushed over, and the guard also stood up with a limp.

When the three of them saw this dense worm, they were not very tired, but they were not afraid of a big man, and they rushed over with the firewood on the stove, and even the wounded guard also held a torch and threw it at the worm......

Zhou Qi is not in a hurry, as long as these are still normal worms, it is still easy to deal with.

This animal is afraid of both water and fire, and loves to be active at night, so the appearance of such a large group may not be due to their breeding period, and they are mating, but unfortunately, this group of worms was burned by the three opposite sides in less than a moment, leaving only the remnants.

"I can understand why Xiju is good at making poisons, and such a large number of poisonous insects are best used in medicine!"

Zhou Qi said as he bypassed the corpse of the worm and walked up the slope, and Da Liu and the others had already cleaned up the fire at the scene.

The guard snorted coldly: "I haven't seen the world!" This is just a worm, there are still a lot of poisonous weeds and poisonous insects after entering Xiju, and you can't get to the county seat without an acquaintance to lead the way! ”

"Oh? So, how often do you go? Zhou Qi asked casually.

Before he could answer, a horse's hoofs sounded.
