Chapter 33: I'm an Assassin

But something surprising happened, only to hear a puff of white gas from the horse's nose, snort coldly, and then look at the huge tiger, actually prostrate on the ground, trembling, as if extremely frightened.

In Lu Quan's stunned, the barge horse walked over with elegant steps, held down the tiger with his paws, and with one mouth, he actually bit off the tiger's huge tiger head, shook his head and threw it aside. From beginning to end, the tiger did not even resist.

Lu Jian was surprised, and suddenly remembered that the old man with open teeth seemed to have said that this barge horse is fed on tigers and wolves, no wonder the tiger behaved like this, it was a natural enemy.

Suddenly, from a towering tree not far away, a cold voice came: "The legendary barge horse is really strange to see here." ”

Lu Jian hurriedly looked up, and saw a man dressed in black sitting on a thick branch of the big tree, holding a sword in one hand and a gourd in the other, and from time to time he raised his head and took a sip. The man in black leaned against the trunk of the big tree, his feet drooping, swaying gently, very pleasant.

Lu Jian was very strange, there was obviously no one on the tree just now, when did this man in black appear, and it looked like he had been sitting for a long time.

Lu Jian remembered some of the rules of the rivers and lakes that the old man had said, and saluted with his fists: "This senior, but do you want to hunt this tiger too?"

The man in black poured another sip of wine and said disdainfully: "A tiger is also worth my shot, I just heard the tiger crying, come over to see the excitement,"

Lu Jian breathed a sigh of relief and arched his hand: "That senior, please take care of yourself." Then he held on to his injured leg and walked to the barge.

Barge Ma Xu has not eaten delicious food in the underground palace for a long time, a huge tiger, only Lu Jian and the man in black are so good at talking, they actually eat most of their body. There was blood all over the place, and it was a mess, and Lu Jian looked at its foodie appearance, both shocked and a little funny.

Lu Jian suddenly remembered Zeng Jiayu, and hurriedly asked, "Let you protect the girl of the Zeng family, why did you come here, where is she?"

The barge stretched out his paws and pointed to the grass beside him, and sure enough, the little girl was lying there.

Lu Jian hurriedly limped over, and saw that although the little girl was still lying, she had already opened her eyes and was looking at him.

Lu Pressure sat beside her with a smile, touched her forehead, the little girl subconsciously dodged it, Lu Pressure smiled and withdrew his hand, feeling that the fever had subsided.

So he said happily: "You burned so hard just now, I wanted to find a few herbs to treat you, but I didn't expect to meet a tiger, fortunately the barge horse came, otherwise, I don't know what the result is" Zeng Jiayu stood up with difficulty, and said sincerely to the landing pressure: "Brother Lu, thank you for taking care of me." ”

Lu Jian shook his hand: "This is all as it should be, we came out together, we should take care of each other, Miss Zeng is not polite." After saying that, I was a little sad. Because of this expedition, both men lost their loved ones.

Zeng Jiayu saw this emotion from Lu Quan's expression, his eyes were slightly red, but he bit his pale lips with his white teeth to prevent himself from shedding tears.

Lu Jian didn't know how to persuade the little girl, so he had to turn his gaze to the barge horse.

At this time, the man in black on the tree stood up on the branch with his sword in his hand, and raised his foot with a single step, as if he had stepped to Lu Press's side in one step.

Lu Pressure was startled, and asked suspiciously, "Senior, what are you going to do?"

The man in black was very tall, he lowered his head and stared at Lu Jian expressionlessly, and suddenly said for a long time: "I'm actually an assassin, are you afraid?"

Lu Jian shook his head: "I'm not a rich person either, what's so scary." ”

The man in black still didn't have any expression, nodded and said, "What I said is that no one will pay for a poor fat man like you." The man in black tilted his head and took another sip of wine, as if he felt bored.

Lu Jian cautiously asked, "Senior, are you really an assassin?" ”

The man in black shook off coldly: "What does the little broken child know what is like and what is not?"

Lu Pressure hesitated for a moment, and asked the man in black softly: "Senior, I don't know if there is a place to stay here for us to stay overnight, my companion is sick and needs to find a place to recuperate quietly." ”

The man in black looked at Lu Jian coldly, Lu Jian looked at him carefully, and saw that this person was not very old, his appearance was very ordinary, he couldn't tell what his characteristics were, his face was relatively pale, and his eyes were cold. The man in black feels like a sense of alienation, as if he keeps a distance from everyone.

The man in black looked at Lu Press, turned around and left, and said without looking back: "If you are not afraid, follow it." ”

Lu Jian hurriedly went to help Zeng Jiayu onto the barge, and tied the remaining small half of the tiger carcass to the back of the barge's butt with a rope, and then rode it himself, letting the barge follow the man in black by itself.

The man in black walked through the woods, seemingly very slow, but in fact extremely fast, he used a special body method, tapping his toes on the ground, sliding left and right, not walking in a straight line, accurately bypassing the trees, and quickly walking. If it weren't for the extraordinary leg strength of the barge horse, if it were an ordinary horse, it would have been thrown away by the man in black a long time ago.

The man in black walked through the woods for a long time as if he were skiing, and the forest became denser and denser, and besides, it was already dark, and there was no light in the forest, and a man and a horse walked through the woods so quickly.

Suddenly, the man in black stopped, stood motionless, as if listening to something, and the barge stopped without making a sound.

After a while, the man in black nodded, walked straight forward, followed the fine moonlight, and saw a huge towering tree in front of him, and a small tree house was built on a platform made of several thick branches.

When he came to the treehouse, the man in black looked around carefully for a while before jumping onto the branch and entering the treehouse. After a while, the lights in the tree house lit up, adding a warm yellow to the dark woods.

The man in black walked out of the tree house and waved his hand for Lu Jian and Zeng Jiayu to come up.

The barge shook and shrunk into the mark on Lu Press's fingers.

Lu Jian helped Zeng Jiayu to slowly climb up to the branch platform along the vines. As soon as I entered the small tree house, I found that it was not as small as I imagined, and it was quite spacious inside.

Moreover, there is a small compartment. The house is complete with all the household utensils, and the so-called sparrows are small and complete.

The man in black took out a cushion from the inner room and laid it against the wall and laid it on the ground. The man in black pointed at Zeng Jiayu and said, "Little girl, you can rest here." After speaking, he pressed to the landing: "You and I are making do in it." "Lu Jian is used to living a hard life, and he doesn't feel that there is anything uncomfortable.

The man in black pointed to the stove in the corner of the wall again, and said to Lu Zhu: "If you haven't eaten, you can make some vegetable porridge by yourself." ”
