Early Morning 20 of the Empire: Here comes a challenger
At night, the caravan escort set up camp and lit a bonfire, it had been two days since the last battle in the Hengliang Mountains, and in the past two days, Lin Xu had been talking to Cai Fatzi in addition to recuperating from his injuries.
That's right, after the last incident, the relationship between the two can be said to have risen in a straight line, and in the spare time for chatting, Lin Xu learned from Cai Fatzi's mouth that Cai Fatzi's background is not noble.
It's just an ordinary ordinary family, the fat man's father turned out to be in the family, and there were two older brothers, but they both died on the battlefield, after the fat man's father joined the army, he usually accumulated some military merits and mixed with an ordinary lieutenant in the Qin State.
When Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, he vigorously developed and created an army, forming a complete set of perfect promotion system, as long as the soldiers marched forward bravely in the army, survived several battles, and killed a large number of people, they could rise quickly.
However, according to the fat man's confession, when the old man in the family was young, he was an opportunistic bastard in the army, and he was as clever as a rabbit when he was in the war.
The fat man's father is also lucky, and he is just in time for Qin to destroy the Six Kingdoms, and there have been no major changes.
On the frontal battlefield, the Qin army almost won every battle, otherwise, the old man would have been dealt with by military law, and there would be no Cai Long.
The old man has accumulated some coffin books over the years, and now the times are different, and there is no need to exchange his life for his future, so he handed over the money to his son and the only son, Cai Long, and let him come out to break through, and the old man himself is looking for an idle position in the military department, so he will be a pensioner.
"You mean it according to you, the old man is also a smart man!"
The moonlight was bright, Lin Fang, Lin Xu, and Cai Long were chatting around the bonfire, Lin Fang was gnawing on a roast leg of lamb at this time, don't you say, this leg of lamb tastes really good.
Cai Fatzi stared at the flames, poured a sip of wine into his mouth, and said lightly: "I don't know if I'm smart or not, but the group of people who joined the army with the old man over the years have already left, and if he also died on the battlefield at that time, the old man in the family would be gone." ”
The firelight was reflected on the fat man's face, Lin Xu felt exceptionally good-looking, and the fat man's shadow also became tall and powerful under the light of the firelight.
"I respect you!"
Lin Fang raised his wine glass and greeted Cai Long, after Cai Long spoke to discuss the affairs of the family, Lin Fang did not speak and remained silent.
Lin Xu knew why, the fat man's father, his behavior would be despised by people in the army, especially Lin Fang, who was also half a leader, and even more despised this kind of person.
But the Cai family is also full of loyalty, who is qualified to say that theirs is not, not every world has keyboard warriors.
Cai Fatzi touched Lin Fang and said melancholy: "Of course, it was not easy for those old Qin people back then......
Lin Fang drank another glass of wine and said to Cai Long: "Yes, you are reasonable. ”
"I wondered, isn't it good now? The people are doing well, the demon clan is not out, and those Huns in the south who are chattering with gods and gods do not dare to go to the interior to practice magic skills, why are some people still nostalgic for the past. ”
Cai Fatzi muttered to himself incomprehensibly.
"Oh, don't mention these sad things. ”
Fat Cai shook his head and touched Lin Fang again.
Cai Fatzi wanted to get rid of the depression in his heart, and continued to the two of them: "I don't know what's going on? ”
The scene fell into a cold scene, Lin Fang and Lin Xu both chose not to pick up Cai Fatzi's words, both of them knew the reason, if they had to find someone to bear the cause of this incident, they were the culprits, and they were responsible for these dead brothers.
Cai Fatzi slowly got up and said, "Forget it, forget it, let's sleep......
The next day, the sun was still the same, it didn't stop rising because someone died, just like this caravan, the dead were dead, the living were still alive, everyone was busy again, packed up last night's things, and prepared to set off on the road.
"Let's go, watch the wind rise and fall, the green mountains are buried everywhere, and the world is full of heaven. ”
The fat man walked in front of the caravan, waving the horsewhip in his hand, Lin Xu and Lin Fang knew that this was to commemorate the dead brother.
.........
The caravan continued to move forward, time flew by, everyone had already walked for half a day, and then a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, dressed in ordinary black clothes, his face was full of wind and sand, and his skin was rough, as if he had been waiting here for a long time, the knife was out of his body, and the pestle was on the ground, and when the convoy approached, the man opened his eyes and stared at the convoy.
Cai Fatzi hurriedly waved his hand, and the entire convoy stopped in an orderly manner.
The fat man muttered quietly, "What kind of moth is going to come out this time?" ”
Cai Fatzi stopped the caravan, drove straight in, and said enthusiastically to this person: "Brother, is there anything you can help with?"
At this time, Cai Fatzi's mood is complicated, this trip has been going back and forth for many years, and it has not been as accident-prone as this trip.
The man in black standing in the distance said coldly: "I will challenge the master among you, kill you or be killed by you." ”
After Cai Long heard this, he said to the man with a depressed face: "I said, brother, we have no grievances and no hatred, so we don't need to do this." ”
The man immediately stopped talking, but closed his eyes again, as if recuperating and waiting for the battle to come.
Okay, this thing stopped talking, and Cai Long also retreated with interest and returned to the caravan.
Seeing the fat man come back, Lin Xu hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Fat man, what's the matter?" ”
The fat man looked angry: "Damn, who provoked Lao Tzu, this thing came out of nowhere, saying that it was here to challenge me." ”
Lin Fang suddenly interjected at this time, "Challenge you?"
Cai Long still had an angry look on his face, and said in a somewhat depressed voice: "He said that he came to challenge the strongest among us, isn't that me, this time I darts, did I really go out and forget to look at the calendar?"
When a few people were talking, the man in black also moved, picked up the big knife on the ground with a pestle, and walked towards the caravan target, the knife swam on the ground, making a piercing sound, and the whole person walked very slowly, but the distance between the others and the caravan was not very far, and after a while, they came over.
The man in black stared at the people in the caravan and said, "My name is Nameless, you can call me Nameless to challenge the master among you." ”
"It's still nameless, as soon as I hear this name, it's just whether it's made up or not, can we get in the way and take a snack......
Lin Xu complained frantically in his heart, but he didn't say anything in his mouth, this person looked like he was here to do something.
Fat Cai stood up directly, took his sledgehammer, and walked towards this "nameless", "Let the fat man, come and learn your skills, I hope your cultivation is as powerful as your temper." ”
Lin Fang also looked at this nameless, deep voice Lin Xu said, "It's not good, we are being targeted." ”
"Targeting?"
Lin Xu didn't see anything, but he just felt that this person was here to do things, this kind of person usually doesn't survive more than two chapters in martial arts novels.
"Yes, he is a soldier, no matter how much he hides it, he can't hide the unique temperament of a soldier. ”
Lin Fang is also a soldier, and he is also a very good soldier, he understands the feeling of seeing people like things on this nameless body, just like now, this "nameless" looks at Cai Fatzi's eyes, as if he is looking at a dead person.
Lin Fang carefully observed Nameless, and said slowly: "And you look at the callus in his hand, it is a hand that holds a knife all year round, even if he sleeps, he will not leave his hand, a real knife man." ”
Lin Xu was a little excited, and hurriedly asked, "Then do you say that the fat man can do it this time?"
In the past few days, Lin Xu has a certain good impression of Cai Fatzi, and he doesn't want Cai Fatzi to die in front of his eyes.
"No, mid-level cultivation. ”
"Even if I add you, it won't work. ”
Lin Fang said with certainty, at first glance, this person is the kind of person who often wanders on the boundary between life and death, and his skills and fighting skills are different from ordinary people, and his martial arts cultivation is higher than that of Cai Fatzi, this person is far more powerful than Tong Leopard.
Lin Xu asked anxiously: "If you say so, isn't it dangerous for the fat man this time." ”
Lin Fang just stared ahead, and didn't pick up Lin Xu's words.
