Chapter 44: Trouble Comes
It didn't take long for five figures to suddenly appear in the place where they had just fought, and these five people looked at the blood all over the ground, and their fists trembled in anger.
One of the men in a purple robe, who looked like a polymath, angrily said to his companions, "I don't know who had the audacity to kill all the men we sent out, and we have to avenge the death of these brothers." After listening to the man's words, the other four nodded, and chased along the ruts of the carriage together, looking like they would soon catch up with Mu Xiaofeng and his party.
This Mu Xiaofeng and his party walked for a long time, and Mu Xiaofeng's injuries were almost healed by Qiao Zi, so he shouted to the people of the six major families outside the carriage: "Can you let us out for a while?" Sitting in this carriage is really stuffy. Rest assured! We're not going to run away. ”
Mu Xiaofeng seemed to want to go out for a walk, and sitting in this car for a long time made him feel like a prisoner. Hearing Mu Xiaofeng's request, the envoy of the Blood Spirit Clan first looked at his companion. The others didn't react, only Mo Huai shook his head gently.
The Blood Spirit Clan envoy closed his eyes and sighed, and replied, "I'm sure you won't run away, so let's all come out, but you have to go quickly, don't delay your trip." ”
As soon as Mu Xiaofeng heard that the people of the six major families agreed to get out of the carriage by himself, he got up to go out. It's just that at this time, Qiao Zi took Mu Xiaofeng's hand and said, "I just spent a lot of energy, I want to rest in the carriage, you have to be careful when you go out." ”
Qiao Zi looked a little tired, it seemed that she was really tired. Hearing Qiao Zi say this, Qin Baoyi asked herself to stay with Qiao Zi, so the two girls stayed in the carriage, while the others went out to breathe.
When these people got out of the carriage, they were much more lively, and they all played with each other, as if they had forgotten that they were going to be interrogated by the six major families.
It didn't take long for them to see a few wooden and grass huts in front of them, and then the warrior envoy shouted to everyone, "There is a village ahead, I will go to investigate the situation first, and if we can, we will go there and rest." ”
After saying that, the martial envoy rushed out quickly, and he couldn't see his figure for a while. At this time, Zhang Wenyu also ran out, shouting as he ran: "I'll go with him." ”
This Theobera saw Zhang Wenyu running away, her brows furrowed slightly, she was afraid that Zhang Wenyu would run away like this. Mu Xiaofeng saw Theobela's expression, then smiled and told her, "Don't worry, Zhang Wenyu won't run away, because we're still here." Theobella saw that Mu Xiaofeng was so confident in Zhang Wenyu, and her hanging heart was put down a little, and she continued to move forward.
The group finally came to this small mountain village, where the martial envoy and Zhang Wenyu were waiting, and the two were talking intimately. It seems that the people of these six families are not completely inhuman, and they can also be friends with other people. After talking, Zhang Wenyu knew that this martial envoy was called Wu Xiaoxing, and he was Wu Xiaotian's uncle before.
After this group arrived at this small mountain village, they rested, bought food and water, and wandered around the small mountain village for a while, of course, Mu Xiaofeng They couldn't leave the sight of the six major families.
This Mu Xiaofeng and a few people came to the door of an old woman's house, this Yun Jie liked the straw hat made by the old woman very much, so she wanted to buy one. The old woman looked at this group of children like Mu Xiaofeng, and asked where they came from.
Yun Jie told the old woman: "Old woman, we came from Huguan City, and now we are going to the royal capital." When the old woman heard Yun Jie say this, she touched Yun Jie's face with concern and said, "Children! Be careful, there's a very powerful gang of bandits around here. They've been here for years, and they're the most powerful bandits in the King's Mountains, and they've got five particularly powerful bandit leaders. ”
"Five bandit leaders?" Hearing the old woman say this, Mu Xiaofeng felt a little uneasy in her heart. After all, just now, the bandit leader of the five big and three thick was beaten by the people of the six major families and had no strength to fight back, if this is powerful, then the bandits of Hutouling are too vulnerable.
I'm afraid that the six major families killed just now were just the subordinates of this bandit leader, and in this case, their road will not be easy to follow in the future. This Mu Xiaofeng's worry is not bad at all, the five bandit leaders at this time have already rushed to this small mountain village, maybe it won't take a day for them to catch up with Mu Xiaofeng and his party.
Mu Xiaofeng and his party didn't stay long in this small mountain village, they set off and left the small mountain village, and soon after they left, the sky was about to darken. The beautiful sunset is nostalgic for the earth, refusing to bury his head.
At this time, Zhang Wenyu found that the sky in the direction behind him was also red, and then shook Mu Xiaofeng and pointed to the sky over there, and asked, "Mu Xiaofeng, there should be only one sun in this sky, right?" ”
Mu Xiaofeng felt a little strange when he heard Zhang Wenyu say this, and then looked in the direction Zhang Wenyu pointed, and found that the sky behind them was really red, and it felt like the sun had also set from there.
Mu Xiaofeng sensed that something was wrong, and then said to Zhang Wenyu: "It's not good! That direction is the direction of the small mountain village we left, where the villagers may be in danger. At this time, Mu Xiaofeng hurriedly shouted, asked the team to stop, and pointed in the direction behind him.
The group stopped and asked Wu Xiaoxing to go back to inquire about the situation. It didn't take long for Wu Xiaoxing to return, and he stretched his face and told everyone: "The small mountain village we left may have been attacked by robbers, and this group of robbers set fire to this mountain village, so we have to get out of here quickly." ”
At this time, Mu Xiaofeng finally understood that the red glow in the distance was not a sunset beauty at all, but a sky red by the firelight. Where did Mu Xiaofeng stop, he picked up the heavy sword and ran back, wanting to go back to save the villagers in the small mountain village.
However, at this time, Wu Xiaoxing blocked Mu Xiaofeng's way with a dodge, and then signaled him not to go back. At this time, Mo Huaiqiu also slowly walked to Mu Xiaofeng's side and asked Mu Xiaofeng: "Do you kid want to escape?" It's too late for you to rush back to save them now, it's better for us to leave here early and enter the range of the royal capital, this neighborhood is really not a good place. ”
Mu Xiaofeng was also anxious, angry and helpless when he heard Mo Huai say this, he roared, and then cut off a big tree as thick as a wine barrel next to him with a sword, and then turned around and continued to move forward, leaving crystal teardrops as he walked.
By this time, the five bandit leaders in the small mountain village had destroyed the place at all, for no matter who they asked for information about the convoy, all the villagers told them that it was only six young men in their twenties with a group of teenagers.
This answer was unacceptable to the five bandit leaders, after all, they had injured dozens of brothers, how could they be defeated by these dozen young men who were less than thirty years old. And it's not just a defeat, it's a slaughter of their brothers.
The five bandit leaders began to think about the strength of this Mu Xiaofeng and his party, in their opinion, if it was really as the villagers said, maybe the battle would not be so smooth in the future.
Among the five men, a short, thin man stepped forward, this man was no more than a teenager, but he had a face of vicissitudes, some wrinkles on his face, and a mustache, and what was more remarkable was his scar that pierced the entire face.
The skinny man, who looked like a Shadow Archer in his attire, suggested to the other four, "Maybe we'll have tough bones ahead, but we're familiar with the terrain here, and we can keep harassing them, draining them of their stamina, and then destroying them in one fell swoop." "What this little man said is quite reasonable, they have lived in this King Mountain Range for so many years, and of course they know everything about the grass and trees nearby, which is a geographical advantage.
The others also agreed with the little man's opinion, and the leader of the polymath stepped forward and patted the little man on the shoulder, and then comforted: "Don't worry, brother, we will definitely help you avenge your brother's revenge." ”
It seems that this little man is the elder brother of the bandit leader who was five big and three rough before, no wonder this group of people is so desperate to catch up with Mu Xiaofeng and them to take revenge. However, judging from his face, this brother is a little smaller and thinner, and this mustache is exactly the same as his brother. After the five bandit leaders finished speaking, they continued to move forward, and after almost late at night, they finally found the trace of Mu Xiaofeng and his party in front.
Among this Mu Xiaofeng and his party, because there are people like Qiao Ziqin Baoyi who are not good at sports, their itinerary is not very fast, and it is reasonable that they can be caught up by these five bandit leaders, but what they didn't expect was that this group of people caught up with them without sleep.
The five bandit leaders had already seen Mu Xiaofeng and his party, and immediately dispersed into the woods. But all of their movements were discovered by Wu Xiaoxing, who was now walking at the back of the line, and Wu Xiaoxing found that the enemy had appeared, so he immediately alerted everyone: "Everyone be careful, we have guests coming." ”
As soon as Wu Xiaoxing's words fell, several sharp arrows flew out of the woods and flew directly towards everyone, and the envoy of the Chen family immediately jumped forward and brandished a silver spear to stop the arrow. But then several springs of water poured out of the ground, rushing directly at everyone, and Theobera was also lucky, and forcibly changed the direction of the impact of this spring to the side of the road to prevent them from being impacted.
Although no one was hurt, the horse was startled by the sudden attack, and spread its hooves and ran. But this Qiao Zi and Qin Baoyi are still in the car, if they don't stop the carriage now, the two of them in the carriage will be very dangerous.
