Chapter 2 - The Tricks of the Incompetent Merchant
"Wife, look, it's a shooting star!" On the vast grassland, a man and a woman are riding horses along the railway.
"Make a wish on a shooting star, and what you want will come to you." The male smiled and looked at the woman's face.
"Then I want a shooting star!" The woman pointed to the bright spot in the sky with her tail dragging.
"Gee, that's going to be a tough one." The male said with a smile.
However, as if they understood their words, the "shooting star" in the sky kept getting bigger, and another small bright spot slowly turned into the size of a leather ball.
"Meteor really got it! It's flying towards us again! The woman clapped her hands happily.
Men feel the same way, and this meteor is really flying towards them.
He gradually realized that something was wrong, this "meteor" did not seem to cross the sky, but fell from the sky!
The man jerked the reins, and the horse under him ran quickly.
"Oh hoo!" This sudden acceleration made the women chant excitedly. But she didn't know that the man was already sweating profusely.
A train passed them quickly, and the trees on both sides of the road were about to break off as if they were blown by the air that the train had brought.
The meteor smashed straight into the front of the train, accompanied by an explosion, the entire train was lifted, the connection of the front of the car was completely disconnected from the body, and then the rails adsorbed the body and the front of the car back, leaving only the front of the car to continue to gallop forward, and the body stayed on the track.
"I just reacted! Why are you doing stupid things to pull me! I should have been out of danger just now!! "Lianshan has just had the experience of a comet hitting the earth for the first time in his life, and he is in shock at the moment.
"I thought you were more adventurous." Duan En put Lian Shan on the ground and scratched the back of his head in shame.
"Anyway, no matter what stupid things you do in the future, you can go by yourself, and I'll stay here!" Lian Shan sat on the ground, folded his hands around his chest, and then turned his head away.
"Okay, okay, then you wait for me, I'll go back when I go." Duan En gave a thumbs up and jumped on the train at once. Then he pulled the door open like a piece of paper and walked inside.
"Simple-minded strange man" This is Lianshan's first impression of Duan En now.
"How can anyone hit the train with the girl they met for the first time." Lian Shan muttered.
After that, several small airboats fell from the sky, and Lian Shan looked at the spray-painted patterns on the airboats, which should be the rapid reaction team of the National Guardian Force.
But Lianshan immediately discovered something strange, if the magicians on the train were all dead, who sent the signal for help? Even if the call for help was really sent, why was it possible to respond in such a short time?
The danger has not been lifted, and things are not so simple.
Lianshan couldn't move at this time, and under the searchlight of the empty boat, they quickly discovered Lianshan.
A person jumped out of the airboat first, walked in front of Lianshan and took out a photo, which seemed to be comparing whether Lianshan was the person in the photo.
"Ma'am, we are the National Defenders, can you please return to the car immediately to assist us in our investigation?"
"I'm sorry Your Excellency, but my foot is seriously injured, and I really can't move now." Lianshan pointed to his swollen ankle.
The person who came down first turned his head and motioned for the person behind him to come over, "Carry this lady into the car!" ”
The soldier behind him walked quickly towards him, and Lian Shan said to him, "Your Excellency, we have just been attacked, and there should still be enemies in the car now." ”
"Okay ma'am, follow-up support will be there soon, come back to the car with me first, we can ensure your safety." The soldier held out his hand as he spoke.
Lian Shan was convinced that the reason why this so-called vanguard was able to come here at this time was because they were simply air thieves on standby.
Lian Shan was reluctant in her heart, but the stones she relied on to save her life were in her suitcase, and at this moment she was powerless, so she had to be picked up by that person and stumbled to follow him to the car.
"Go." A figure suddenly flew out from the other side of the train, and with a sweep in the air, it kicked the head of the air thief who was pulling the mountain cleanly, and before he could make a sound, he was kicked and flew down the slope next to the railway.
"It seems that from now on, this section of the railway will not be safe." Duan En pulled back Lian Shan's hand and hugged her again.
"As you say, they're not here for money, they're here for someone." Lian Shan looked at the empty boat parked on the ground in the distance.
"And this group of people is more organized and premeditated than you think."
"The group of people who came down just now came on the airboat of the National Defender Force."
Duan En nodded, "I walked a few carriages forward just now, but they were all empty, they should have gathered all the people they found in the middle carriages." ”
"Big brother, with the kind of mobility you just had, wouldn't it be good for the two of us to just go away?" Lian Shan said.
Duan En glanced at Lian Shan in his arms, "If there is danger, and even the people who can stop the danger in time do not rush forward, the danger will always turn into a disaster, and a scar will be carved in the history of people." ”
Lian Shan was in awe, this person named Duan En was far from being as simple as he thought.
"Just now in the carriage of the two of us, I used the stone to do the magic in my suitcase"
"Otherwise, you'll hold me up as a human body armor." Lian Shan said.
Duan En hadn't heard the word body armor for a long time, but when he heard the word human body armor at this moment, he still laughed out of place.
"I'll hide you by the haystack in the distance, and I'll come back to you when I'm done." As he spoke, Duan En began to prepare to move.
Who knew that Lian Shan grabbed Duan En's cuffs, "If everyone just looks at the hero when he is ready to sacrifice for others, then the hero may become a martyr." ”
"Trust me, I'm strong!" Duan En made a muscle-flexing pose.
"I'm sure I can help, and you believe me, I'm not as weak as you think!" Lian Shan tugged at the cuffs harder.
Duan En paused, looked at the woman in his arms, pondered for a moment, and nodded.
"After you got the box, how many times can you use the kind of magic you attacked me just now?" Duan En spoke.
"Nine times, I don't have a magical affinity, and I need to use external forces to perform magic tricks." Lian Shan said.
"We changed our strategy to precise rescue, and this group of air thieves has not killed indiscriminately at least so far, which means that they only came for that one person, and that person should not have been found now." She gestured to the carriage.
"We're going to find the guy before they do, and then take the guy they're looking for, and at your speed we'll lure the air thieves out of the open field away from the passengers."
The corners of Lianshan's mouth raised a smile.
"And then catch them all."
On the train, two air thieves were carrying a strong man who had fainted to the middle carriage.
"The boss said that this time we came to catch the "bell", but until now we don't even know what the "bell" looks like. An air thief grumbled.
"At least we can be sure that we got into this car, be content, we didn't even know if the person was in the city when we ran to the city to kidnap the ticket." Another air thief said.
"Let's go smoke a cigarette after moving this trip, the boss won't find out." "You kid will smoke one when you get to the Nai He Bridge. Hurry up, let's talk about it after moving. The two air thieves gradually walked away.
Outside the window, Duan En walked away with Lian Shan and the other two air thieves and jumped into the carriage through the window.
Lian Shan sat down to find his box, and after opening it, in addition to his clothes and a few books, he rolled out nine crystal clear crystals.
"You also have "Photography from Fool to Shop", I haven't read this book since I bought it." Duan En looked at Lianshan's box and said.
"It's rude to look at a girl's suitcase, and if you want to discuss academic content, you can wait for the two of us to get out alive." Without even lifting the mountain, he grabbed a hedron and placed it on his injured ankle.
A faint light flashed, and a thick smell of blood filled the air, which was a low-level healing technique, generally used for emergency treatment and cold and fever.
The magic of the hedron was drained and turned back into an ordinary stone, and Lianshan threw the stone on the ground.
Lianshan tried to jump, but he still didn't feel well, but there was no problem with his movements.
"It's magical, magic." Lian Shan gave Duan En a thumbs up.
Duan En raised his head and looked around, there should be no empty thieves nearby.
"We walked from the outside to the middle of the car, and the movement of stepping on the grass was a little smaller, and if there was a floor in disrepair in the car, it would make a lot of noise." Lian Shan has already stepped out of the window with half a foot.
Seeing that Lianshan turned out first, Duan En also jumped out.
The five carriages in the middle of the carriage were already crowded with people at this time, and every few rows there was an air thief standing guard, and the air thieves all had the same staff in their hands.
A burly man in a helmet mask paced back and forth in the carriage.
He said unhurriedly, "Everyone, we are only looking for one person here today, fortunately, I have a lot of photos of him, now, I will pass on his photos to everyone, if you can help me find out, I will let everyone go, and everyone can go home and sleep." ”
The night was terrifyingly quiet, and his voice was so loud in the night that it could barely be heard by the people in the five carriages.
As he spoke, the thieves began to throw pictures out of their pockets, and people drifted to themselves in fear.
At first, no one dared to move, but then one person moved to pinch the photo in his hand, and the crowd began to pick it up carefully.
It was a photo of a very beautiful girl, with short white hair and big eyes, and such a beautiful person was very recognizable.
In the crowd behind, a middle-aged man was covered in sweat, he knelt on the ground and kept shaking, if he was afraid of having a specific image, then his fear should have been several floors high at the moment.
Because after getting in the car, there happened to be this beautiful girl sitting on his left, and he was very gentlemanly to help the lady carry the suitcase, and the girl's smile made him feel refreshed like a spring breeze.
Now, the girl was beside her, her head bowed like a hat.
The middle-aged man wanted to raise his hand to report that it was over, he was doing business in Flowing Water City, and he wanted to go home to visit his wife and children by night train, and his wife should still be waiting for him with a hot meal at this time. But he also knew that if he raised his hand to report, the girl's fate would be ugly.
The girl in the hat turned her head slightly to the left and saw the sweaty and trembling hands of the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man's teeth bit his lip fiercely, and blood was already oozing out.
He lifted his hand slightly, then lowered it again.
There was a sound of a magic arrow piercing through the air, followed by the sound of a magic arrow piercing through flesh, and a man beside the burly empty thief instantly fell in a pool of blood.
"Ahhh The woman next to the man who fell to the ground screamed.
At the same time as the scream was heard, the air thief standing guard punched her in the back of the head, and there was a muffled sound, and the woman's head hit the cushion in the front row, and she fainted.
"It seems that everyone is not in a hurry to go home and likes this train very much, so I will let one passenger stay on the train forever every minute passes." The burly thief wiped the tip of his staff.
The middle-aged man was lying on the ground at this time, holding his head with his hand, he slowly raised his hand, but his hand was not yet exposed to the seat, so he put it back.
The girl in the hat next to her twisted her head back, and she stood up silently.
"The old lady is ......," she raised her head, ready to shout, but before she could say anything, she was muffled by a louder voice.
"The old lady is here! Idiots! Outside the car window, a woman's figure stood in the dark night with her hands folded, and the light from the car window only illuminated half of her body.
The woman turned her head in a chic manner, and the light from her hand illuminated the night, which was Lianshan.
With the scattered light, a fireball shot out from Lianshan's hand, grazing the head of the burly air thief who had not yet reacted and smashing through the carriage and flying out of the window of the other half.
The burly air thief's helmet and mask quickly stuck to the flesh on his face due to the heat.
"! Catch me, I'm going to kill him!! The burly thief was half-kneeling on the ground with his head covered.
Who knows that the mountains outside the window have not completely stopped output, but it is the output of the mouth.
"Hahahahaha, a basket of stupid thieves, so many people can't catch the old lady alone! I'm going to get you in the newspaper when I get back!" Lian Shan laughed arrogantly.
At this time, several air thieves had already begun to shoot magic out of the window, and a few air thieves broke out of the window and rushed straight towards Lianshan.
"It's too crooked, it's too crooked, you can't learn it from your own father! I'm curious how you guys came to be! You have the opportunity to go back and ask your own mother-in-law if you are a wild seed! ”
After Lian Shan finished scolding, he jumped down the slope next to the railway.
But people don't forget to leave a sentence when they leave.
"You won't be without your mother, will you!"
The air thieves in the whole car were furious at the moment, eager to cut and chop the people outside the window.
Then, the strong man covering his head hammered the floor with his other hand and shouted, "Chase me out!" Kill her! Kill her! ”
All the air thieves chased them out one after another, and they poured magic down the slope as if they were mad.
Five minutes ago, Lian Shan and Duan En stepped on the grass and sneaked to the carriage where the crowd gathered, Lian Shan made a boo gesture and whispered.
"People should all be in these cars, and we may not be able to find the person they are looking for before they squat."
"There's another question, they at least have photos, what do we look for." ”
Lian Shan smiled and took out a photo from his body, "When did you take it?!" Duan En was surprised.
"Oh, the thief doesn't know if he doesn't go, just now I got out of the pocket of the person who was beaten by you, and I took the photo when he grabbed my hand." Lian Shan waved the photo.
Suddenly, a woman's scream came from the carriage beside them, followed by a muffled thud.
"We don't have that much time to find people, they should have started killing people." When Lian Shan heard the sound, he immediately leaned down.
"I rushed in and disposed of the loud leader, and then drew them into chasing me." Duan En said as if he was about to rush into the carriage.
Lian Shan stretched out his hand to stop him, "The plan is good, but most of the people in this car may die because of you." Magic doesn't have eyes, and countless civilians will become meat shields in the chaos of the carriage. ”
Lian Shan followed the girl in the photo in the same motion, and then she winked at Duan En.
Duan En immediately understood what she meant and said.
"I'll be waiting for you down the hillside."
Lian Shan added, "Wait a minute, don't escape too quickly, you have to keep giving this group of air thieves the illusion that they can catch up with you, otherwise they will turn around and come back at any time." ”
"Gotcha." Duan En flipped downhill.
Lian Shan took a deep breath and suddenly stood up.
"The old lady is in ......"
