The light car is familiar with the horseshoe, and the grass leaves the style. I only hate that spring flowers are good first, and the beautiful women on Mo do not return.

The Yandang Mountain Range stretches for hundreds of miles, the mountains are vast and unique, there are more rocks and fewer trees, there are many mountain thieves and fierce beasts in the mountains, although there are two state government armies guarding important strongholds, but there are still mountain thieves who follow the opportunity, and run into the mountains after grabbing them, and the government army has no way to go into the mountains to search and suppress, which is really a headache. Therefore, unless forced to do so, even the merchants will try to avoid this place, preferring to take a long detour.

However, this is the main road from Jeju to Cheongju, and sometimes even if you don't want to, the situation is forced to pass.

"Miss Yuxi, should we continue on our way?"

The interrogator was a young man, with a scruffy beard and an iron sword in his arms, and he looked like a prodigal son.

Chen saw that what the eldest brother said was extreme, but there were only some flowers and plants along the way, and Yu Xi wanted to stay for a while to Fu Chunsi. Then he didn't say more, put up the bamboo flute in his hand and leaned on Sakura's lips, only to see the red lips suddenly rise, only to hear the sound of the flute.

Chen had no choice but to let it go, after all, the beautiful girl in front of him was his employer, not to mention anything else, this beautiful girl ranked fourth on the list of beauties in five states was the only beauty she had seen in her life, and those little ladies who had a dewy marriage with her in the past were really difficult to deal with. This time, he relied on the strength of the Xuan-level beginner to defeat a group of followers and hired masters, hoping to take it down on the way back to the Qingzhou Prefecture Capital, so he knew that this place was not very peaceful, but he still obeyed him.

Yuxi has been away from Huamanlou for more than two years, although it is a brothel, but as a Qingqi person, she has been cared for by the bustard since she was a child, and the boss behind the scenes is also very tolerant of her, never forcing people to be difficult, so that Huamanlou can be regarded as half of her family's existence, even if her real home was destroyed before the "sky change".

She went to Jeju this time to watch the ceremony of the succession of the new suzerain at the invitation of the ancestor of the Yun Tan sect, Yun Tan mother-in-law, according to Yun Tan mother-in-law herself, she liked her talent very much, especially the skill of playing the flute is very pure, and therefore gave her a long flute made of South China Sea purple bamboo, and originally said that she wanted the master of the sect to escort her back, but she politely refused. It's just because she intuitively feels that Granny Yun Tan seems to be too good to her, and she can't understand what kind of plans the first-class sect has for her own mere people, and she doesn't want to feel guilty, so she has to hire another cultivator master to escort her all the way.

"Miss Yuxi, someone is coming, please go back to the carriage to avoid it!"

I have to say that although Chen Jian was a little cautious, he was still quite conscientious in guarding Yuxi, so Yuxi put away the flute and entered the carriage alone with the support of the maid, only quietly lifting half a crack at the window to secretly show his head and observe.

I saw a white-haired donkey walking on the mountain road, and there was a bit of a horse from a distance. And on the back of the donkey half-lying a reading boy, perhaps because there are few trees on the mountain, so the sun is blazing, the young man is holding a broken red paper umbrella in his hand, half-exposed and half-covered after all, blocking a little shade.

Seeing him approaching, Chen ordered his entourage and servants to get out of the way, and then asked, "Where are you young man, and where are you going?"

Luo Buyi took the booklet away from his face when he heard this, looked at Chen Jian and the carriage next to him, and the maids and servants near the carriage, knowing that most of them had female dependents here, which was not very convenient, so he arched his hand and said, "Passing by, don't stop down!"

If it was an ordinary moment, maybe Chen Jian would have let it go, but this time it was not easy to see Luo Yi to make a common bow to walk the rivers and lakes, knowing that this young man must be a fellow believer, so he was overjoyed, he was worried that he could not show his face in front of Yu Xi, and this young man caught up, just enough to show his super high cultivation, so as to win the heart of the beautiful woman.

"In Lower Jeju, the leader of the Haitian Gang personally passed on his disciple Chen Jian, ask the young man for advice, look at the sword!" After speaking, he drew his sword and stabbed Luo Buyi on the donkey's back.

Chen Jian was really eager to win, and he didn't care that it was inconvenient for Luo Buyi to lie on the donkey's back at this time, so his actions could be regarded as a sneak attack.

Chen Jian's sword is very fast, after all, he is a master of the first level of the Xuan level, even if he is not as exquisite as the sword cultivation of the Sword Gate, he can still ascend to the hall of elegance. It's just that before he could send the sword to Luo Buyi's chest, and then put on a master's demeanor to let Luo Buyi go, he felt that something flew suddenly in front of him, smashed him on the head, and smashed him upside down and flew out.

Luo Buyi reopened the remnant umbrella that had been bounced back, shrugged his shoulders helplessly and half-lay on Ryoma's back again, and walked forward by Ryoma himself, while he was holding the sword intent essence to look at it.

There are so many weirdos these days.

Ryoma snorted, flicked his tail and flew a black and yellow ball, just smashing on the face of Chen Jian, who was lying on the ground before he could get up.

"Gross... What is this thing?"

The sound of the donkey's hooves "clicked" quickly and quickly, and soon disappeared.

At this time, there was a silver bell-like laughter in the carriage, and it disappeared in a flash.

And Chen Jian sat on the ground with a ruthless face, with black and yellow traces.

"Let's keep going!" said Yu Xi in the carriage.

As the saying goes, you need to see the sun when you travel in the mountains, and once the sun sets, even if the hour has not arrived, it will be dark in the mountains, and the mountains will be high and dense, and it will be dark everywhere, and the large beasts will wait for the opportunity to move and go out to hunt. Otherwise, please hurry up the mountain, there will be a harvest early, and don't be greedy for darkness when you go down the mountain, you will encounter ghosts if you are greedy for black.

I don't know if I will meet a ghost, but I won't be safe and secure anyway.

Chen saw that he was also quite nervous when he was escorting the convoy walking on the mountain road, in case a fierce beast came out, it would be bad, if there were two, then he would not dare to be careless, after all, no one knew if there would be a fierce beast with higher strength than him to attack, be careful.

"Chen Daxia, there is handwriting written on the stone here!" shouted a servant at the head of the team.

Chen saw and heard that he rode forward from the side of the carriage, and when he saw the faint sky, he really piled up a few large stones on a flat slope, and one of the stones had two lines of words written on it in white stone, and he couldn't help but say: "It's safe here, but you can rest, and if it's dangerous ahead, you will die!"

"What's going on?" Yu Xi got out of the car and walked to the edge of the stone, and was surprised when she saw it, and asked, "Is this someone reminding us not to go any further?"

Chen Jian pondered for a while, and said: "It is still impossible to confirm who left a warning message, in case the Yandang Mountain bandits deliberately stayed here and waited for us to take the bait, wouldn't we fall into their trap?"

Yu Xi nodded, and had to admit that what Chen Jian said was not wrong, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and said, "Could it be that the boy who rode the donkey before?"

Chen Jian rubbed his face, even though he had rinsed it with a water bladder several times, he still vaguely felt a little foul smell, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed and said: "It's impossible, how does that young man know that there will be danger ahead?" Let's hurry up while it's not yet completely dark, it's less than fifty miles away from the next government army node, and besides, I have walked this mountain road during the day, and I haven't encountered any danger." ”

Yuxi glanced at Chen Jian deeply, and said with a blessing: "In this way, Yuxi is in charge of Brother Chen Jian's decision, please protect the convoy thoroughly!"

Chen Jianyan's face was much better when he heard this, and said, "Miss Yuxi, don't worry, I'll be on the way to the leader of the team!" After speaking, he rode forward.

Yuxi looked at Chen Jian's back and sighed lightly, and returned to the carriage.

So the convoy moved forward again, slowly moving in the evening.

After four or five miles, Chen Jian beckoned the convoy to stop, not only because the night was so dark that there was not even a trace of starlight in the sky, but also because the horse under his seat no longer walked, and vaguely saw a big stone in the middle of the road in front of the horse's hoof.

"Light the torch!" Chen Jian ordered.

His own servants lit torches and stood in the ranks, with one person standing at intervals.

Chen saw the whole picture of the stone in the light of the fire, and after glancing at it, he stopped taking it seriously, muttered: "So it's mysterious!" and then said loudly: "There is a boulder in the middle of the road, just bypass it!" As for the words on the boulder, this time he didn't even have the idea of telling Yu Xi.

However, when Yuxi's carriage passed by the boulder, the curtains on the windows were opened a gap, and Yuxi could clearly see the handwriting on the boulder from the gap: Be cautious, be cautious of fire, and you can save your life.

He sighed secretly, and whispered to the servant holding the torch beside the carriage: "Put out the torches in front and behind the carriage, I want to take a nap, if you are too dark, you can walk with the front and back." ”

Although the servants didn't know what Yu Xi wanted to do, they were still obedient in the end, after all, Yu Xi was their employer, and there was no reason not to listen to her.

Thus the convoy continued to move forward, and the more it went, the quieter the procession became, probably because of the night, and even the carriage of the lady who whispered was silent. Chen saw that it was getting easier and easier, and after about two or three miles, he couldn't help laughing out loud and said, "Hahaha... I also said what kind of clever calculation, it turned out to be just a child's mouth, Huang can't be trusted! Where is there any danger to life?"

Suddenly, a mountain wind blew, and the torches in the hands of the servants were blown dark, and the figures of people and horses flickered. When everything returned to calm, Chen Jian suddenly felt that the surroundings were much darker, and his heart couldn't help but twitch tightly, and he snatched the torch from the servant's hand and ran towards the end of the team.

"What about people, where did the others go? Did they secretly stop and rest? Come on, come on, go find them for me!" Chen saw that he was panicking on horseback, and walked back and forth, but there were still people anywhere, and the whole convoy was empty from the back of Yuxi's carriage to the end of the team.

Another gust of mountain wind blew, except for the torch in Chen Jian's hand, and the surroundings became pitch black. When Chen Jian turned the horse's head and looked again, only himself and Yuxi's carriage were left around.

"Miss Yuxi, Miss Yuxi, are you still there?" Chen Jian's voice trembled more and more, but all that answered him was the howling mountain wind, blowing the torches to shake.

Chen Jian was still a Xuan-level master after all, gritted his teeth and got off the horse, pulled out the iron sword, held the sword in one hand and the torch in the other, and searched around the carriage, suddenly a huge hand fell from the sky, grabbed Chen Jian's arm holding the sword, and lifted it up.

"Ahh

"Roar!" I saw a humanoid troll standing on the top of the carriage in the firelight, his hands and feet covered with animal hair, and the only head on his body was a human head, but it was as big as a wheel, and the beast teeth in his mouth were craggy.

"Demon... Demons!" Chen saw that his eyes were panicked, and he was cowardly before he fought, the key was to see the degree of demonization, he thought that he was not his opponent, and he ran away in a panic.

But the demon could not let him escape, and his figure came and went like the wind, and he grabbed him back to the carriage, and threw the iron sword and torch on the ground beside him.

Chen Jian struggled to help the carriage stand up, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and said to the demon: "Here, there is a woman here, better than me, eat as you like, play with you, let me go!"

The demon didn't care, and tore off Chen Jian's arm, which had broken his guts, and threw it into his mouth to chew. And Chen Jian took the opportunity to kick the demon on the head, flew upside down, and ran away from the way he came, believing that Yu Xi was there, and the demon couldn't catch up with him for a while, and during this period, it was a critical period for him to escape.

In the carriage, Yuxi leaned back to the carriage, afraid and angry, but did not dare to say a word, and glared at the demon angrily.

The demon spat out a hand bone from his arrogant mouth, turned his head to Yuxi, who could not escape in the carriage, and slowly stretched out his giant hand.

Yuxi closes her eyes and waits, there is no sadness and no joy for a while, this world may be extremely boring, and she doesn't know what to be happy about in this life when she dies. It's just that somehow, the funny boy of the day, oh, and the donkey, flashed in my mind, and the corners of my mouth couldn't help but twitch again.

There was a loud "poof", and it seemed that something heavy had fallen to the ground.

"Hey, you're going to be eaten by demons, how can you still laugh?"

This voice seemed to have been heard, Yu Xi opened his eyes, and what greeted him was no longer the terrifying demon, but a handsome face with a smile, the knife in his hand still looked black and heavy under the residual light of the torch, and there was a seal belt at the handle of the knife fluttering with the mountain breeze.
