Chapter 5: The Mysterious Parchment Scroll
A man with messy hair, a scruffy beard, and uncovered clothes walked down the avenue, and occasionally a few carriages passed by the avenue, and the coachman had a look of disgust on his face.
"Where did the stinky beggar come from, if you want to enter the city, take out a silver coin to enter the city, otherwise get out of the way!" The soldiers defending Qingjiang City shouted in disgust at the beggar-like man in front of them.
The man wanted to say more, but the impatient soldier shouted angrily: "Fuck, don't believe it or not, Lao Tzu slashed you with a knife!"
The man sighed helplessly, turned to leave, and looked at the face, it was Xiao Mo.
There is a dilapidated house more than ten miles away from Qingjiang City, which Xiao Mo found before, it was dark today, and he couldn't enter the city, so Xiao Mo planned to go to this place to rest for one night and then find another way.
A horse with black hair and a snow-white hoof galloped down the avenue. On the back of the horse lay a middle-aged man covered in blood, weak as if he could fall off the horse at any moment.
"Huh!"
The galloping horse and Xiao Mo who were walking on the road passed by, and almost hit him. Xiao Mo flashed to the side of the road to get out of the way, but at this moment, the middle-aged man on horseback suddenly fell, but the horse continued to gallop without realizing it.
He's dead!
Xiao Mo frowned slightly, feeling that the middle-aged man lying on the ground had completely lost his life.
Xiao Mo pursues the concept of entering the earth for peace, and this is not a colosseum where corpses have to be fed to demon beasts, he can't bear to see middle-aged people's corpses in the wild, so he dug a pit on the side of the road, intending to bury the middle-aged man.
Just as Xiao Mo was moving the middle-aged man's body, a folded parchment roll fell out of the middle-aged man's arms. Xiao Mo picked it up and opened it, and looked at it carefully through the silver moonlight.
I saw a map drawn on the parchment, and there was a red route on the map pointing to a place with a treasure chest - it turned out to be a treasure map!
There are a few lines of small characters written in the upper right corner of the parchment scroll, which turned out to be traditional Chinese characters in Xiao Mo's impression. This is naturally difficult for Xiao Mo, and when I looked closely, I saw that it was written: "I have practiced for a hundred years, and finally reached the realm of the king, only to find that the Great Cloud Country is just a small corner of the world, I decided to go to the mainland to pursue the avenue, and leave some wealth and exercises to wait for those who are destined before leaving." ”
Although Xiao Mo didn't know how strong the Imperial King Realm was, this did not prevent him from recording this map in the quantum computer in his mind, and he would also look for it if he had the chance.
"Da ......" Just when Xiao Mo had just buried the middle-aged man, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and it was getting closer and closer.
Under the silvery moonlight, the eight horseback figures were getting closer and closer, and when they were fifty meters away from Xiao Mo, a sharp-eyed little brother pointed to Xiao Mo on the side of the road and said, "Captain, there is a beggar there." ”
"Kuroko, you go and ask him. The captain took the lead in stopping the horse, and in the moonlight, eight men could be seen wearing the same badge on their chests.
This little brother named Heizi rode out of the team on a horse, stopped five meters away from Xiao Mo, and asked condescendingly and arrogantly, "Stinky beggar, have you seen a middle-aged man covered in blood riding a demon beast mount past here?"
Xiao Mo glanced at the other party coldly and did not answer.
Seeing that he was being ignored by a beggar, Kuroko suddenly felt that he was insulted, and opened his mouth to scold: "Fuck, a stinky beggar dares to ignore me, and if you don't believe it or not, I will cut you with a knife!"
Xiao Mo's eyes flashed, and with a kick under his feet, he suddenly burst out, and the whole person rushed towards the sunspot.
A few people in the distance were immediately happy when they saw this scene, and someone immediately said: "Yo, this beggar still dares to resist, do you think he has a brain disease?"
"Do you think Kuroko will kill him with a single sword, or will he be tortured to death slowly?"
"With Kuroko's character, I'm afraid it's not so easy for this beggar to die. ”
"Now that the task is on his own, Kuroko shouldn't waste time, otherwise the captain will be unhappy. Hearing this man's words, the rest of the younger brothers looked at the captain in front of him who was speechless in fear and stopped talking.
With a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth, Kuroko raised a palm-wide knife and slashed at Xiao Mo, who rushed towards him, he seemed to have seen the other party being split in half under his own knife.
But Xiao Mo's footsteps were wrong, and he lightly flashed the menacing knife of the sunspot, kicked on the horse's leg, and kicked the horse's leg with a "click".
The horse fell to the ground and let out a miserable wail, and even the sunspot that was riding on him fell like a rolling gourd.
But before Kuroko's body hit the ground, Xiao Mo's right fist had already hit his neck with a whistling sound, and snatched the weapon in his hand.
All this happened too suddenly, but it was over in a breath, and by the time the rest of the people reacted, the sunspot had already died in Xiao Mo's hands.
The captain's eyes flashed with rage, and it was a great shame for him that his subordinates were killed in front of him by a weak beggar. Although the beggar showed some strength, he was still weak in his eyes.
"You guys go up together and cut him up for me!"
Hearing the captain's order, the remaining six immediately rode up. Seeing a group of people on the other side rushing towards him with a fierce momentum, although Xiao Mo was not afraid, he had to avoid the edge for the time being.
The sides of the road were bumpy, not conducive to horses running, and some places were overgrown with weeds that were a man high, so Xiao Mo hid in these places. The six had no choice but to dismount and chase Xiao Mo.
When the other party lost the mobility of the horse, Xiao Mo no longer dodged, and wrestled with the six people with the big knife he had snatched.
With the advantage of speed, coupled with the fighting instinct honed between life and death in the Colosseum, Xiao Mo did not fall behind at all with a pair of six. Of course, this is also related to the fact that the strength of the six people is not strong, and the realm of the strongest is similar to Xiao Mo.
The sword light and sword shadow flickered, and the eyes of the people were dazzling from time to time.
With a "bang", a blood mark was drawn on Xiao Mo's chest, this was the third time he had been injured, but the other party had already paid for the lives of four people!
The captain watched his subordinates being killed from a distance, and finally couldn't help but take action. Riding a horse and running to the battle, he kicked hard, and the whole person jumped up from the horse, holding a thick-backed big knife and slashing his head and face towards Xiao Mo!
The strength of the captain is not comparable to that of a few junior brothers, this knife tore through the air, making a piercing whistling sound, and there was a sense of grabbing people's hearts.
These four words appeared in Xiao Mo's heart, and he did not hesitate to use the "Wind Shadow Thorn", and his speed skyrocketed in an instant, leaving the captain's attack range.
Xiao Mo's move was suddenly used, and the only two remaining little brothers didn't have time to react, and one of them had already fallen under Xiao Mo's knife. Xiao Mo not only dodged the attack this time, but actually killed one person again!
"Boy, die!" The captain's voice was furious, and he raised his sword to attack again, and the offensive was endless.
Xiao Mo's whole person was clumsy under the fierce blade of the captain, and he was miserable, and he couldn't get out for a while.
The difference in strength between the two is so big!
"Ding!"
The knife in Xiao Mo's hand was interrupted by a fierce slash from the captain!
The whole person was knocked upside down and flew out, and the parchment roll that was clamped around his waist also fell off in the fight.
The parchment roll fell, instantly attracting the captain's attention.
"Imperial Treasure Map!"
The captain's pupils contracted suddenly, and he didn't care about chasing Xiao Mo, grabbed the parchment roll in his hand, and couldn't wait to unfold it.
"Sure enough, it's the Imperial King's Treasure Map!Stinky boy, since it's on you, I can't keep you, let me die!" The momentum on the captain's body skyrocketed, and for a while, Xiao Mo's chest was stuffy.
Fortunately, the captain didn't pursue him just now because of the parchment roll, giving him a little buffer time, Xiao Mo picked up a long sword from the ground and held it in his hand.
The difference in strength is too big, and it seems that there is only one way to win.
Xiao Mo thought silently in his heart, and entered the laboratory as soon as his mind moved.
"It's a pity that there is not much energy left after this launch. Xiao Mo said as he started the quantum computer.
This time, instead of using the computer to analyze the captain's information, he called up Young Master Ling's martial art "Triple Thorn" that he had recorded before.
In his feeling, although the captain's strength far surpassed his own, it was still much worse than that of Young Master Ling. Otherwise, Xiao Mo would never choose to fight him, but turned around and fled.
Even so, the difference in strength between the two is still huge, and it is useless to use a computer to analyze each other's weaknesses, only to strengthen your own strength is the most important thing.
The martial art of "Triple Thorn" is very skillful, and it is very powerful to explode lethality with skill. With Xiao Mo's current strength, it is still a little reluctant to learn, but now in this situation, there is only one way to quickly increase his strength and turn defeat into victory.
Back to reality, Xiao Mo clenched the long sword in his hand, his eyes flashed, and he went away to meet the captain's attack.
Xiao Mo faced the captain's attack, and one sideways dodged over the vital part, allowing it to cut a wound on his shoulder.
At this time, the long sword in Xiao Mo's hand had already stabbed in front of the captain. The captain also dodged sideways, seeing that Xiao Mo's attack was about to be in vain.
Unexpectedly, the long sword in his hand shook violently, and it was divided into three in the captain's surprised eyes.
"Poof!
The captain was pierced with two blood holes in Xiao Mo's chest, and the blood instantly stained his upper body, and his eyes were filled with emotions such as incredulity and disbelief. He could never have imagined that he would lose at the hands of this beggar-like man.
"Bang !!"
The captain's body fell to the ground.
"Poof!" Xiao Mo fell to his knees and a mouthful of blood spurted out, which was a side effect of his forcible use of the "triple stab".
But because of the injury, what Xiao Mo didn't notice was that the remaining little brother had secretly stood behind him and raised the weapon in his hand.
