Volume 1 Origin Chapter 294 Halfway robbery
In the dead of night, in the silence of all the voices, a horse-drawn carriage procession quietly marched from the south of Erwang Mountain along the dense forest.
The sound of horses' hooves was gentle, and everyone held their breath, trying not to make a single noise, and they moved forward along the dense forest, until they were only more than a mile away from Erwang Mountain, and finally quietly came out of the dense forest.
In front of him, the wide canyon with no one in front of him, the shroud of the dark night made Xiao Ding's heart settle down a little, and glanced at the daughter beside him, Xiao Ling'er raised her arms high and pushed forward!
The order was given, and in an instant, the people and horses accelerated at the same time, the wheels rolled, and the sound of horses' hooves and footsteps echoed in the valley.
As long as they rush through the canyon, the bandits will not be able to attack the convoy from both sides, and the danger will be greatly reduced, and there will be basically no danger.
The canyon is about three or four miles long, and under the full acceleration of the convoy, it only takes less than half a column of incense to rush out of the canyon!
When entering the canyon, there was a cold wind pouring out of the valley, blowing on everyone's cheeks, like a cold blade cutting the cheeks, biting cold, making everyone's hearts sink, and the pace under their feet unconsciously became a little faster, wanting to get out of here quickly.
Like an arrow, the carriage team plunged into the canyon in an instant, advancing rapidly, but in a matter of moments, it was already halfway through.
The two sides of the canyon were already silent, there was no movement, by the moonlight, Xiao Ding lifted the carriage curtain and looked out, faintly could see the outline of the woods on the opposite side of the canyon, which made his nervous mood slightly relaxed!
Xiao Ling'er on the side also let out a sigh of relief, put her hand down from the hilt of the sword at her waist and said, "Dad, it seems that this time we have escaped a swarm of robbers." ”
Xiao Ding wiped a handful of fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and he also showed a happy expression, although the team had Xu Lao Immortal in charge, and his daughter was present.
But after all, they transported such a large amount of goods, once a battle broke out, there would inevitably be huge losses, and being able to pass through Erwang Mountain safely was naturally the best result.
"When the official road is over tomorrow morning, there will be an army patrol, and the bandits will not dare to be too rampant, and there will be no need to worry about it then, and when we get to Hucheng to sell this batch of herbs, our business house will be able to survive the difficulties." ”
Xiao Ding looked at the exit of the canyon in the distance, patted the carriage window with his hand, and his eyes were full of hope.
At the same time, in the carriage behind Xiao Ding, the old immortal and the old god Xu were sitting in the center of the carriage, and the two disciples were standing obediently on both sides.
Looking at the pitch-black canyon rock wall that was rapidly retreating backwards through the flying curtain, both of them showed a look of anxiety in their eyes, and looked at their master, wanting to ask, but they didn't dare to speak.
Old Immortal Xu seemed to be in a deep sleep, breathing evenly, his face was peaceful, seeing that the convoy had passed through two-thirds of the distance of the canyon, and when the two disciples of Qingshan and Qingyun were anxious like hot pots, Old Immortal Xu finally opened his eyes.
There was a strange look on his face that seemed to be smiling, and he stretched out his hand to hold the floating dust beside him into his hand!
Xiang Yun, who was walking behind the convoy, suddenly shook the divine thoughts that had spread around him, and he immediately looked up at the mountainside on the right side of the valley, and there was a strange light flashing in his eyes.
Xiang Yun's eyes rolled, and he suddenly shouted, "Ouch...... My stomach hurts, no, I'm going to go to the convenient ......!"
Several guards around were stunned when they heard this, and then hurriedly persuaded them: "Brother Wei, you can't stop here, you hold on, and when we rush out of the canyon, you can go again." ”
"Yes, Brother Wei, hold on a little longer!"
"Ouch...... No, no, my stomach hurts badly, you go first, I'll find a random place to solve it, and I'll come to you!"
After saying that, Xiang Yun didn't care about them, turned around and rushed towards the grass on the side of the canyon.
"This ......" Everyone was helpless, and they couldn't stop, so they had to continue to move forward, waiting for the convoy to leave the canyon and then wait for Xiang Yun.
However, just when Xiang Yun had just left everyone's field of vision.
"Boom ......!"
Above the heads of everyone in the canyon, there was a sudden earth-shattering loud noise, and everyone followed the reputation, only to see two huge rocks above the canyon, rolling down, already accelerating rapidly, and smashing into the carriage in front, in which Xiao Ding and his daughter Xiao Ling'er were sitting!
"Watch out for ......!"
"The head of the house, the eldest lady, come out quickly!"
For a while, the shouts of the crowd rang out!
The next moment, two boulders finally rolled down the mountain and smashed into the carriage at the same time!
At the last moment, two figures in the carriage broke from the top of the carriage, and the top of the carriage flew out, and the two of them jumped behind them on the edge of the carriage, and the two boulders collided under their feet, and the carriage was smashed to pieces in an instant.
If the two of them take a step slower, I'm afraid the two of them will be smashed into meatloaf by this boulder.
After Xiao Ding and Xiao Ling'er landed, they looked at the scene in front of them with a slightly pale face, still frightened, and suddenly, the flames on both sides of the canyon were soaring, and there were hundreds of and ten figures on the mountains, and the shadows were full of shadows, and they instantly emerged from both sides of the dark canyon!
"Haha...... The leader of the swarm of bees is here, who is coming?" A rough and deep voice exploded over the canyon like thunder!
"A swarm of bees!"
As soon as they heard these three words, everyone in the convoy instantly changed their faces, they knew that they had been ambushed, but they were obviously sneaking through the canyon at night, how could they be ambushed by bandits, could it be that someone reported the news?
At this moment, the situation was critical, and everyone didn't have time to think about it at all, Xiao Ling'er even pulled out the saber on her waist with a vigilant expression, but Xiao Ding on the side hurriedly pressed her daughter's sword hilt and stepped forward and shouted.
"Xiao Ding of the Rising Sun Commercial Bank, this time I escorted the goods to Hucheng with Xu Laoxian, the guest of the Rising Sun Firm, and Xiao Ling'er, the little girl, passing by the precious land, and I hope that all the heroes who are swarming can make it convenient, Xiao is grateful!"
Xiao Ding is worthy of being an old Jianghu, this clever remark can be described as both soft and hard, which not only shows his identity as the boss of the Rising Sun Commercial Bank, but he does not say a word in advance and the goods are robbed by a swarm of bees three times, which is undoubtedly selling the face of this group of thieves and giving them soft.
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he reported the name of Xu Lao Xianren, a guest of the trading house, and his daughter Xiao Ling'er, undoubtedly warning this group of bandits that his team also had masters in charge, and persuaded the other party not to act rashly.
However, the other party's answer was beyond Xiao Ding's expectations.
"Hey...... It's the Rising Sun Firm again, you really don't have a long brain, the goods have been intercepted by us three times, and you dare to go here, or not, Lao Tzu will help you have a memory!"
Xiao Ding's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he hurriedly shouted: "Ladies and gentlemen, I, Xiao, am a businessman, and I pay attention to harmony and make money, if you are willing to make it convenient, Xiao will be grateful, and I hope you can be accommodating!"
Hearing this, there was the sound of rough and rampant laughter from the top of the canyon.
"Hahaha...... Let go of your mother's stinky fart, Lao Tzu will also use your heavy thanks to tell you that all your goods must be left behind today, and your life will ...... I have to leave them all behind!"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ding's body instantly stiffened, his face sank like water, and the guards of the Xiao family were also panicked and in a mess.
At this moment, Xiao Ling'er on the side pulled out her sword!
"Boom!", the sword pointed to the sky, Xiao Ling'er scolded angrily: "A group of young people, my Xiao family Xiao Ling'er is here, if you really have the courage to rob the goods, then it depends on whether you have the life to take it!"
Xiao Ling'er was a woman, and she stood up with a sword and was like a rainbow, and for a while, it made the group of panicked guards calm down a little like they had the backbone!
"Hahaha...... How dare a little lady be so arrogant, the brothers will kill me, all the men will be killed, and all the women will be brought back to the mountains, and the brothers will be happy!"
With a burst of wild laughter resounding through the canyon, under the bright firelight on both sides of the Erwang Mountain Canyon, hundreds of figures holding steel knives and spears, roaring, screaming, and laughing wildly, like a group of wild beasts rushing down the mountain forest, rushing towards the convoy below, that fierce momentum, instantly shocked everyone!
At this moment, Xiao Ling'er also raised her arms and shouted: "Fellow Xiao family guards, follow me to fight bravely to kill the enemy, and if you kill a thief, you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver!"
The so-called heavy reward must be brave, Xiao Ling'er shouted this sentence, which made the Xiao family guards, who were originally a little afraid in their hearts, have a force rising in their hearts, killing one person can get a hundred taels of silver, the reward is not not rich, for a while, they looked at this group of bandits, and their eyes became hot!
"Damn, brothers, our chance to get rich has come! Follow the eldest lady and kill the thief to receive the reward!"
Some of the guards loyal to the Xiao family also responded loudly, brandishing the big knife in their hands, waving it whirring, and the guards of the Xiao family were also immediately infected, and they all shouted wildly!
"Kill the thief and get the reward!
Seeing that the momentum of the guards was mobilized, Xiao Ling'er's heart settled for a moment, and then she turned around and faced the carriage lane behind her!
"Old Xu, please help us and others!"
Hearing this, a strong wind stirred in the carriage, and Old Immortal Xu stepped out lightly, tiptoe a little to the carriage deck, jumped a few feet, and then gently floated beside Xiao Ling'er.
The surface of Old Immortal Xu's body was wrapped in a mysterious light, and the sign of the master of the Yellow Cloud Realm of 'Cloud Power Release' was undoubtedly revealed, like a bright lamp, illuminating the canyon and completely igniting the flame of hope of everyone in the Xiao family!
"Miss, don't worry, with me Xu here, no one can move a single hair of the goods of the firm!"
"Qingshan, Qingyun, and the guards strangled the thieves, and I will protect the eldest lady and the head of the family!"
"Yes......!"
Qingshan and Qingyun also rushed out of the carriage, pulled out the long sword in their hands, and seeing the appearance of the old Xu immortal, the momentum of the Xiao family's guards reached its peak in an instant, and they shouted wildly in the face of the rushing bandits, without fear!
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ding's eyes flashed with a hint of hope, and he secretly thought in his heart that he might not be able to break out of the valley today, and might even defeat this group of bandits!
"That's right, Brother Wei!" Xiao Ding suddenly thought of Xiang Yun, he quickly turned his head to look around, but there was no trace of Xiang Yun.
Xiao Ling'er on the side said coldly: "Hmph...... Dad, don't worry about that kid, if he didn't run away first for fear of death, he would have been a spy sent by this group of thieves, otherwise how could he have left so coincidentally, we still kill it, and settle accounts with that dog thief in the future!"
Although Xiao Ding looked puzzled, but now that the bandits had rushed down the mountain, he couldn't afford to think more, Xiao Ding also gritted his teeth and pulled out the sword on his waist!
"Kill ......!"
For a while, the shouting and killing sound in the canyon shook the sky, and the fire and blood reflected the night sky!
On the right side of the canyon, on the mountainside of Erwang Mountain, on a highland protruding outward, there are two people standing side by side, watching the battle in the canyon.
One was a strong and majestic figure, wearing a gray cloak, and he held a huge black double-edged battle axe in his hand, which was very powerful, and the other was graceful and curvaceous, with several silver short blades pinned to his waist, and his posture was attractive.
"Hey...... Madam, we can make a lot of money again tonight, and when we clean up the father and daughter of the Xiao family, my strength and reputation will definitely be even louder, and Lao Tzu's 'Domination of the Sky' will also be able to become famous all over the world!" The man's voice was rough and his smile was extremely proud.
The woman on the side smiled coquettishly: "Giggle...... The husband is really wise and martial, and the slave family is admired. ”
