Chapter 23: Road Encounters and Robbery
"Brother Ze, what kind of city is ahead?" The little fat man Gu Congmu sat in a carriage with Gu Ze and Gu Ting, the little fat man's eyes were full of excitement, and his heart was full of curiosity.
This is the first time he has left the family, can he not be excited, can he not be curious?
"It is estimated that we will soon arrive in Yihai City. "Gu Ze estimates that today, I will probably be in Yihai City today.
Gu Ze and the others have been away from Vasa City for more than ten days, and every time they go to one city, they will look for a carriage to go to the next city, and after ten days of travel, they have already passed through six cities.
And the next city is Yihai City.
"Sir, how long will it take to reach Yihai City?" Gu Ting gently lifted the curtain of the carriage and asked the coachman who was driving his horse outside the door.
"Miss, it is estimated that there will be half an hour before you can reach Yihai City. The coachman said.
"Sir, in trouble. ”
"You're welcome. ”
"Since it will take half an hour, let's practice for a while. Hearing this, Gu Ze urged Gu Congmu, this way the little fat man is rarely able to calm down and cultivate well, Gu Ze doesn't want the little fat man's youth and good time to be wasted like this.
"Okay. Hearing Gu Ze's urging, the little fat man stopped the excitement he had been keeping in his heart. He immediately sealed his hands, closed his eyes slightly, and slowly entered the state of cultivation.
Inside the carriage, the three of them cultivated quietly. Gu Ze was not in a hurry to cultivate his strength, and he was more focused on cultivating the Light and Shadow Phantom Thousand at the moment. Because he feels that since he has come out now, it is inevitable that he will not encounter danger, and the light and shadow phantom is definitely a good means to save his life, and he can take advantage of the opportunity to improve some first, but he doesn't have to be in such a hurry to improve his strength.
As the carriage continued to move towards a main road, the main road gradually became noisy and noisy, and more and more carriages were encountered on the road, and many carriages were basically driving in the same direction, which also proved that Yihai City was not far away.
"Sir, isn't it almost there?" Gu Ze took the lead in finishing his cultivation, and he heard that the atmosphere outside the carriage seemed to be becoming lively, so he opened the curtain and poked his head out to ask the coachman.
"Ah, Childe, yes, there are still about a mile or two to enter Yihai City. The coachman couldn't turn around because he was driving, so he had to turn his back to Guzawa.
"Okay. Gu Ze nodded, lowered the curtain, and entered the carriage.
"Okay, Congmu, Sister Gu Ting, I'm about to arrive in Yihai City. Gu Ze said softly, he was about to arrive in Yihai City, and it was time to stop cultivating.
Hearing this, Gu Congmu and Gu Ting also opened their closed eyes one after another.
Gu Congmu rubbed his eyes, glanced out the window, and said happily, "We're about to arrive in Yihai City?"
"Well, there's still a mile or two to go into town. Gu Ze nodded, and couldn't help but glance out the window. At this moment, there are many horse-drawn carriages outside the window speeding towards Yihai City, and many horse-drawn carriages are speeding by, making the road dusty. And there were shouts from time to time in those carriages, which made the ears of Gu Ze and the others who were sitting quietly in the carriage very uncomfortable.
"What's going on, why are so many carriages rushing towards the city?" Gu Congmu looked out the window in confusion, how could he say that this Yihai City was only a second- or third-tier city in the Dika Empire, why did it look so lively. It wasn't because of anything else, but in just a moment, Gu Congmu saw no less than fifty carriages speeding towards Yihai City, and they all had a menacing aura.
It's hard to see this pomp and circumstance in Vaasa City. There were more than fifty carriages, and at least one or two hundred people, what were they going to Yihai City for?
"Hell knows what they're doing, it doesn't matter much to us. Gu Ze said lightly.
"Yes, we just need to take care of ourselves. But I see that the carriages are very strong, and it is not a good thing that they should go into the city, and if we are in trouble, we will act at the opportunity. Gu Ting frowned slightly, she rarely saw such a turbulent momentum, and she didn't dare to conclude what was a good thing.
At this moment, Gu Ze's carriage suddenly came to a sharp stop, and the sudden brakes startled them, and Gu Congmu's little head hit the window directly.
"What's going on?" After the carriage stopped, Gu Ze immediately came back to his senses and hurriedly asked the coachman outside the door.
"Oh no, it's the bandits of the Black Knife Cottage, and they have a few cars blocking our way. The coachman said loudly, a little panicked. He had only heard of the ferocity of the bandits in the Black Knife Cottage, and it was rumored that they only came to Yihai City to rob once every three or four months, and he had never encountered it, so why was it so unfortunate this time.
"Bandits, don't you even let passers-by go?" Gu Ze frowned, it was the first time he had encountered bandits, but he didn't expect these bandits to hit them with their ideas.
"Hmph, I don't believe it, this little bandit near Yihai City still dares to touch us. Gu Congmu snorted coldly, he didn't believe that there were still people in this Deka Empire who dared to touch the people of their Gu family.
"Be careful and act when the opportunity arises. Gu Ting's eyebrows widened, she didn't think that these thieves would let them go easily.
"Uh-huh. Gu Congmu had no choice but to nod helplessly, he really didn't know what to be afraid of with their identity, and he just encountered some little thieves.
"Hey, people inside, get out of the car!" At this moment, a hoarse shout came from outside the carriage, and the momentum sounded very vicious.
Gu Ze, Gu Ting and Gu Congmu glanced at each other and then took the lead out of the carriage, and the two also followed closely behind the carriage.
Out of the carriage, the coachman on the side had a very unnatural expression, his face was full of panic, he was afraid that there would be something long, after all, he had also heard of the ferocity of the black knife cottage bandits.
"Childe, this, this ......" The coachman said in a panic and worry when he saw Gu Ze and the others coming down.
"It's okay, leave it to us here. Gu Ze nodded lightly, and said with a solemn expression.
As soon as Gu Ze and the others got out of the car, they saw seven or eight ugly-looking, tall and short, dressed very vulgarly and vulgarly standing opposite. They all held a big knife in their hands, and Gu Ze saw that those knives were obviously not natal weapons, which meant that no one on the other side was a Xuankui master.
That's easy to do.
"Hey, little ghost, did you hand over the money, or should we find it ourselves? But if we do it, the consequences will be unimaginable. One of the seven or eight thieves spoke first. This man was tall and big, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a sound of bronzed skin, and three ugly scars on his face, and a vicious aura rolled in.
"What if I don't give it?" said Gu Ze indifferently.
They didn't bring much money when they came out, and they had to sign up for the academy later, if all the money was robbed now, what would they take to sign up when the time comes.
"Don't give it, then don't blame us for being rude. The corners of the leading man's mouth rose slightly, stretched out his tongue and licked the tip of the knife, and then seven or eight thieves slowly approached Gu Ze and the others together.
"Yo, this little girl is so smart, do you want to make fun of the masters?" The leading man's eyes looked at Gu Ting, and he was instantly fascinated by Gu Ting's beauty, this little girl is so good-looking!
"Yes, we won't treat you badly, you just stay with us for a few nights. Then, those thieves all smiled lewdly, such a beautiful woman is rare.
"Don't come closer, and if you do, don't blame us for being polite. Gu Ting's eyes were cold.
At this moment, Gu Ze and the others all summoned their respective natal weapons. Gu Ting's natal weapon is a blue-purple long sword named Yun Qiong. And Gu Congmu is a silver-white pestle, called the White Tiger Pestle.
The three of them instantly summoned the natal weapon, especially the six-colored light that Gu Ze shone when he summoned, which immediately surprised those bandits.
"The three of them arrived at the Xuankui Division? They are all Xuankui Divisions at such a young age? It can't be that they kicked some iron plates, right?" The leading man frowned slightly, he could see that Gu Ze and the others should be very young, and those who could become Xuankui Divisions at such a young age should be from the descendants of some big family.
"Damn, hand over the money and let you go, or we'll make a big deal out of it." The man's brows furrowed, and he shouted viciously, his momentum suddenly dropped a lot after seeing the natal weapon in the hands of Gu Ze and the others, after all, no one on their side had reached the Xuankui Division, and his cultivation was the highest, and he was only the ninth layer of the Kui Source Qi. On the other side, there were three Xuankui masters, and he was still a little bottomless in his heart.
However, they are the bandits of the Black Knife Cottage, and no one in a radius of a hundred miles has ever heard of their prestige, and they have not flinched from robbing people of money. If the three children were robbed this time and retreated, they wouldn't have to mix up with the bandits.
"I said, I won't give the money, I have the ability to rob it myself. Gu Ze's expression was very indifferent, and his tone was full of disdain, he had grown so big, but he had never met anyone who dared to rob him.
"Okay, then don't blame us for being ruthless. The leading man smiled coldly, and then raised his big knife and slashed at Gu Ze.
Gu Ze didn't panic at all, when the big knife was only two meters away from him, the corners of Gu Ze's mouth were slightly raised, his figure flashed, and the next moment he appeared behind the man, Gu Ze hit him with a fist in the back.
Before the man could recover his senses, he felt a sudden punch in the back, and he quickly turned around, but he didn't see Gu Ze's figure.
"Heh, are you looking for me?" As soon as the words fell, Gu Ze's figure suddenly appeared in front of the man, and he raised his fist and hit the man's face fiercely, so fast that it was like lightning.
Gu Ting and Gu Congmu were stunned, Gu Ze's speed was so fast that they didn't see where Gu Ze came from at all.
The man staggered back a few steps, he was punched twice by Gu Ze without him noticing, at this moment he was stunned, he was deeply shocked by Gu Ze's amazing speed.
This, this speed is terrifying!
The remaining bandits stood to the side, all of them standing in place at a loss. At such a speed, even the owner of the village is not as good as ah, the owner of the village is a strong man in the Broken Rock Realm, could it be that the cultivation of this little ghost is even higher than the Broken Rock Realm?!
The more I thought about them, the more scared they became, and two of them were so frightened that they were incontinent, and a few drops of liquid dripped from their crotch at the moment.
In the next moment, Gu Ze appeared in front of Gu Ting and Gu Congmu. Gu Ze turned around and smiled at the two of them and said, "You guys get into the carriage first, and I'll leave it here." ”
"Good. Seeing Gu Ze's terrifying speed, there was no time to ask more questions at the moment, so Gu Ting and the two nodded and entered the carriage.
Gu Ze looked at the man with a surprised face, and the corners of his mouth raised a slight arc, this was the first time he had fought with a real person, and it felt very good.
The leading bandit also came to his senses, he clearly knew that this robbery might be yellow, in case the opposite side was really a stronger person than the Broken Rock Realm, if he angered the guy opposite, he might even kill himself and a few brothers.
No, it's important to live.
"I don't know if it's the adults passing by, I hope that the adults have a lot, and a few of our brothers robbed to make a living, begging the adults to let our brothers go, I am grateful, we know that we are wrong. The leading bandit hurriedly put down the broadsword and knelt down with a plop.
Seeing him kneel, the rest of the thieves also threw away their big knives and ran directly over to kneel down together, begging for mercy in their mouths.
"Heh, the change is pretty fast. Tell me, what are you doing with so many carriages going to Yihai City?" Gu Ze had already seen that the carriages that had just passed by were definitely full of bandits, but he wanted to ask why so many bandits were dispatched at one time.
"Ah, well, I think you're from out of town. Do you know, our Black Knife Cottage will come to Yihai City every few months to loot. The leading man said softly, he was afraid that he would make Gu Ze feel unhappy if he said this.
"The Great Ransack?"
