Chapter 66: Parting Ways
Murong Qianqian, who was wearing a man's power suit, was grief-stricken, and cried out loud sadly: "Xiaocui, Xiaocui, don't die." ”
Hu Yicheng frowned and looked around the woods, coughed lightly, arranged to guard everywhere, and signaled to Murong Fengxue that he could not stay here for a long time.
Yesterday, in order to successfully persuade Murong Qianqian to change to men's clothes, the two changed to another carriage, and let Xiaocui pretend to be Murong Qianqian to continue to ride in the original carriage, but it took a lot of effort, and the two of them swore to the gods to ensure Xiaocui's safety, so they persuaded Murong Qianqian.
Today, just as the caravan and the bandits were in a scuffle, Hu Yicheng resolutely decided to let more than a dozen guards escort Xiaocui to break through, with the obvious intention of attracting the attention of some of the bandits.
Mu Jian really led twenty elite cavalry with good martial arts cultivation to chase after him, and after catching up, Mu Jian, who was much higher than the guard, assassinated Xiao Cui with a sword, and immediately fled. Dozens of people including Murong Qianqian, Murong Fengxue, and Hu Yicheng, who were disguised as men's clothes, arrived in a hurry.
Murong Fengxue patted Murong Qianqian's shoulder, and sighed lightly to persuade: "Qianqian, don't be too sad, the dead are gone, and the living are like this." We're going to hurry up. ”
Murong Qianqian stood up angrily when she heard this, her beautiful big eyes were still glistening with tears, and she glared at Murong Fengxue: "You lied to me...... Did you two plan to sacrifice Xiao Cui in the first place, why? There are more than a thousand guards in the caravan, and none of them can protect us two weak women?"
Murong Fengxue looked directly into her eyes calmly, and said calmly: "Our plan didn't necessarily have to sacrifice Xiaocui at the beginning, but when it comes to danger, we will indeed sacrifice her as a last resort, Qianqian, I hope you will forgive us, we have our difficulties and considerations." ”
Murong Qianqian seemed even more excited, and shouted, "You...... Brother-in-law...... You really have plans to sacrifice Xiao Cui, what difficulties do you have, what do you have to consider?"
Murong Fengxue smiled bitterly: "The caravan has more than a thousand guards, it can't be said that the strength is not strong, they assassinated first a few days ago, but it was unsuccessful. The killers did not give up, and this time they were entangled with more than 200 masters, which meant that they would not give up. More than 200 people ambushed us, and they have been accidentally broken by wood, logically speaking, they have lost the time and place for a sneak attack, and they should give up today's attack, but they still forcibly attacked us, you can know that the people behind the command will never stop if they don't kill you. ”
Meng Tian on the side glanced at Liang Mutou and muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "There are no horses, if they don't attack today, will they run dozens of miles tomorrow to catch up with us and attack again?"
Murong Qianqian listened carefully to Murong Fengxue's explanation, and Murong Fengxue continued: "More than two hundred bandits have been fighting until there are only a hundred people left, and those who are sober know that if they continue to fight, the bandits will be in vain, but none of them have the slightest intention of retreating. I guess they either have a backhand, or they're afraid of the people behind them. Qianqian, you have also seen that more than 1,000 of our guards have been killed and injured more than 300 people, and if we continue to fight, even if we can completely annihilate this group of bandits, how many people can we have left, and there are still three days to go back to Fushui City, the border city of Yan Kingdom, how can we ensure the safety of the following trip without manpower? Is Xiaocui's life important? Or is the life of more than 1,000 guards important? Qianqian, please believe in your brother, and make the decision to let Xiaocui sacrifice, we are all uncomfortable. But there is no way, life is sometimes like this, fate is often forcing us, requiring us to make many painful choices. ”
Hu Yicheng also explained: "Miss Xiaocui is a very reasonable person, we just planned to ask her to replace you in the carriage at first, and last night she proposed to us that she was willing to take a few guards to escape in case of danger, hoping to attract some killers to go." Today's sacrifice of Miss Xiaocui is still very valuable, and many more people in the Hu caravan have survived for this. Now, as long as we can temporarily confuse the bandits for two days and make them think that you have been stabbed, even if they wake up in the future, we will have safely returned to Yan Kingdom. ”
After Hu Yicheng and Murong Fengxue took turns to explain, Murong Qianqian also woke up from her sad anger and understood that they chose to sacrifice Xiaocui, although they couldn't let themselves agree, but they did it for the overall situation, or for their own safety, so they had to make this decision.
Murong Fengxue saw Murong Qianqian calm down, and persuaded in a low voice: "Let's go back and continue on our way, don't let the bandits find out that something is wrong, then all the previous efforts will be wasted, and Xiaocui's sacrifice will be wasted." ”
Murong Qianqian lowered her head and said softly, "Brother Yi, let me bury Xiaocui first." ”
Of course, Hu Yicheng and Murong Fengxue had no way to refuse, so they could only arrange dozens of guards to be on guard everywhere.
At this time, Liang Mutou coldly objected: "You can't bury her." ”
Hu Yicheng and Murong Fengxue froze at the same time, Murong Qianqian's eyes were filled with electricity, she glared at Liang Mutou angrily, and gritted her teeth in a low voice: "Why can't I bury Xiaocui?
Meng Tian made a bitter face, reached out and gently pulled Liang Mu's sleeve, hoping that Liang Mu would not say anything nonsense, which would stimulate Murong Qianqian's nerves again.
Liang Mutou's expression was still calm, and he said coldly: "If it is you who die, Murong Qianqian, will the Hu clan caravan bury her here?"
Meng Tian was the first to comprehend and shouted: "Yes, if Miss Qianqian is stabbed, the caravan will definitely transport her body back to Murong Mansion in Yanjing City, and she will go back for a big burial, and she will definitely not simply be buried in the barren mountains and mountains." ”
Hu Yicheng and Murong Fengxue glanced at each other, and Hu Yicheng said: "Yes, fortunately, the little brother of the wood reminded us that we still have to hide from that group of killers for two days, and we must also bring Xiaocui's body back to the caravan and hurry together." ”
Murong Fengxue nodded, agreed with Hu Yicheng's opinion, turned her head and looked at Meng Tiandao suspiciously: "Didn't you have to rush home first, why did you come again." ”
Meng Tian said nonsense: "The day before yesterday, I walked to Tianbao Lake, and on the way I received news that the Python Bandit Group was operating nearby, and everyone knew that the Python Bandit Group has always been notorious, and they all robbed and attacked caravans for a living. I was worried that the Python Bandits were targeting you, so I ran back to report to you, but unfortunately, it was too late. ”
Murong Fengxue stretched out her hand and patted Meng Tian on the shoulder, and said with relief: "Well, you are a good boy, and it is not in vain that Qianqian asked me to recruit you into the Murong Knights, not bad!"
Meng Tian said in surprise: "It turns out that I was asked to enter the Murong Knights, is it Sister Qianqian's meaning! Sister Qianqian has vision!"
Liang Mutou was speechless about how good Meng Tian felt about himself, the Knights obviously wanted to recruit the two of them, but Meng Tian automatically ignored that it was just him, and he was called Miss Qianqian just now, and now he changed his name to Sister Qianqian.
"If it's a python bandit group, then it's bad, it is said that their bandit group has nearly 3,000 people, and less than 300 people have been dispatched today. Hu Yicheng said worriedly.
Meng Tian continued to talk nonsense: "Don't worry, everyone, the Python Desolate Bandit Group was in a hurry this time, and only dispatched nearly three hundred elite-level masters. At that time, I heard that the Python Bandit Regiment had set up camp near here, and I was worried that the target they were going to ambush was the Hu caravan, so I sneaked near their camp in the middle of the night to find out a little bit of news. But they were well defended, I couldn't get in, just as I was about to leave, I suddenly saw the camp of the python bandit in flames, it turned out to be a martial arts cultivator who was extremely powerful and covered his face in black, and set fire to the horse pen of the bandit camp, and the bandit lost a lot of war horses and some manpower. This time, I just wanted to come to report to you, but I didn't expect it to be too late. ”
Hu Yicheng said happily: "There is such a thing, Mengtian, are you sure? That is really God helping us." Which master attacked the python bandits and burned all their horses, no wonder, I said why did this bandit have no horses, since they were attacking us on foot, if they all had war horses, the casualties of our caravan would be greater. ”
Murong Fengxue also nodded and praised: "Well, I see, no matter who attacked the Python Desolate Bandit Group, the enemy of the enemy is our friend." Mengtian, this time you rushed back, do you plan to go with us on the road to Yanjing? There are at most three days left from Floating Water City, so it is safer for everyone to walk together. ”
Meng Tian glanced at Liang Mutou, shrugged indifferently, and said, "It's okay, let's go together, it's ......"
Liang Mutou interjected and cut him off: "No, Meng Tian and I stayed, and we couldn't help much, so the two of us left first." ”
Murong Fengxue was stunned for a moment, and said with a little worry: "The bandits have just retreated, in case you encounter them, it will be very dangerous." ”
"It doesn't matter, in case we encounter bandits, we have a way to get rid of them. ”
Murong Fengxue looked at Liang Mutou fixedly for a while, then smiled: "Since you have confidence, then it's up to you, after remembering Yanjing, come to our Murong Mansion to find me." ”
In the end, after saying goodbye to Murong Qianqian, Meng Tian and Liang Mutou rode away.
Hu Yicheng and Murong Fengxue stood side by side, looking at the figures of Liang Mutou and Meng Tian riding away, Murong Fengxue sighed with emotion: "These two people don't know that they are the descendants of that hermit master, their talent is so amazing, and they will definitely have an unlimited future in the future." ”
Hu Yicheng also nodded and praised: "There is nothing to say about martial arts cultivation, what is even more rare for the two of them is that they are mature and steady, do not stick to the world, are calm and wise, and do not be surprised, especially the younger kid, especially the appearance is particularly prominent." ”
Murong Fengxue said: "Uncle Hu, you said, according to what Meng Tian said, he didn't know the masked man in black who burned the camp of the bandits, would he have something to hide?"
"Lord Murong, what do you mean...... Or was it the work of the elders in their families? Is it possible...... Anyway, it wasn't the people from both of us who came from Yanjing, otherwise, the men in black would have come to join us a long time ago. ”
Behind the two of them, Hu Chun, Hu Xiao's uncle and nephew, listened to the conversation between the two, and looked a little unconvinced.
Hu Xiao took a step forward and asked suspiciously, "Grandpa, why do you and Head Murong believe these two boys so much?" The things these two boys said are not true, and obviously many of them have reservations...... Besides, we can't find out who they are, and if they are spies of the bandits, we will be miserable. ”
Hu Yicheng snorted coldly, and said, "You have to use your brains more in doing things, don't be suspicious at every turn? If the two of them were bandit spies, wouldn't the bandits have known that Miss Qianqian was in that carriage a long time ago? How could the bandits assassinate the wrong people from the Bright Sect twice? Besides, if there is no place where Liang Mutou exposes the ambush of the python bandit group today, the casualties of our Hu family's caravan will be much greater. ”
Hu Xiao retorted unconvinced: "The place where the bandit ambush is exposed is just a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, it's just his luck, it's nothing remarkable." ”
Hu Yicheng glared at him angrily, slapped Hu Xiao's head with his palm, looked like he hated iron but not steel, and scolded in a low voice: "Shut up, he's lucky?
Murong Fengxue glanced at Hu Xiao, who was scolded by Hu Yicheng, and Da pulled his head and bowed his head silently, a little stubborn.
smiled and said, "Hu Xiao, what's the matter, you still don't believe in your grandfather's vision?"
When Hu Xiao heard Murong Fengxue's question, he immediately stood up straight and replied, "Head Murong, I'm ...... Can't. ”
Murong Fengxue smiled and said, "Just don't dare......?" I ask you, have you seen that log that has been traveling with us for many days, and has been shooting arrows and hunting with the guards from time to time?"
Hu Xiao was stunned for a moment: "Yes, what's wrong?"
Murong Fengxue continued, "Then what do you think of his archery skills?"
Hu Xiao pondered for a moment and replied seriously: "Frankly speaking, in addition to his slightly weaker true qi, he is still very talented in archery, and he is almost a hundred shots." ”
"Then why did the wood shoot a little leopard at such a close distance today, and it took almost twenty arrows to shoot, but it couldn't be missed?"
Hu Xiao was stunned for a moment, looked at Murong Fengxue stupidly, and stumbled: "This ...... This one...... He missed...... Don't...... He deliberately exposed the ambush location of the bandits to us, and he ...... Early...... Just get the message...... Are the bandits going to ambush there?"
Murong Fengxue nodded, "Only in this way can it be explained, as for our initial thought that the true qi of the wood was a little weaker, I am afraid that we also misjudged." The bandit leader's martial arts cultivation is amazing, and under the full force of the volley, he only let the wood spit out a mouthful of blood, and then he acted like he was nothing, it seems that his previous cultivation still has some reservations. ”
Hu Xiao and Hu Chun looked at each other, remembering the competition between the four of them.
At that time, if it wasn't for Murong Fengxue to stop it, he would have almost defeated the two of them. Putting aside Meng Tian, the already strong wood on the table even hid his cultivation, which made the Hu uncle and nephew, who were only in their early twenties and had always boasted of being young masters, embarrassed?
You know, Wood is only fourteen years old this year!
In the afternoon, the caravan set off in full gear, and there were about 680 guards left, and 100 were divided into 100 led by Hu Yu, and they dispersed to explore the road first.
There were more than a dozen knights in the carriage procession of the Hu caravan, with solemn expressions and black belts wrapped around their left arms, escorting a carriage with a white cloth hanging on it, which was particularly conspicuous in the procession.
