Volume 1: The Wind Rises in the Wasteland Chapter 2: The Wind Rises
After seven days of rest, Zhao An received the next task from He Xia, the head of the dart. Go to Shanjiao Town, at the foot of the Shuangdi Mountain Range, to retrieve a box and give it to the owner of the Big Flower Rice Shop in the deserted city.
Zhao An, who received the task, was about to leave the hall of the dart game, but was stopped by He Xia.
"Zhao An, wait a minute. He Xia wondered.
"Is there anything else you haven't explained? Zhao An turned around and replied.
"It's Xiaoyu's birthday in a few days. ”
"The chief dart head still remembers such a trivial matter. ”
"Of course, Xiaoyu's girl I also watched her grow up. When you're not out, she often comes to the game and asks if you'll be back in a few days. He Xia stroked his beard and took out a small dagger from his cuff. The dagger is small and exquisite, and the pattern on the handle of the dagger is quite complicated, and it seems that it should be worth a lot of money.
"This is a gift I prepared for Xiaoyu, you brought it to her for me. ”
"Total dart, this can't be helped. This dagger is too valuable. Zhao An shirked.
"I have no children under my knees, and I have long regarded Xiaoyu as my own child. Besides, it's not for you. He Xia said.
"Okay, I'll give it to Xiaoyu. Zhao An accepted the small dagger.
"You prepare for a few more days, and by the way, accompany Xiaoyu and your father and mother more. ”
"Yes, the head of the dart. Zhao An said, turned around and left the hall, leaving He Xia alone in the hall.
......
On the banks of the Mon River, the wharf of the river town. The sun was high in the sky, and the sun was quite scorching, after all, it was the end of April and the beginning of May. Dock workers could not stand the heat either, and rested in the shade. In the riverside tavern, several dart masters are drinking.
Among the dart masters, sitting on the top seat was a young man dressed in black, and the young man was Zhao An. After a five-day trek, Zhao An and his entourage arrived at this town on the banks of the Menghe River from Ningling City.
Zhao An got up and shouted to the drinking dart masters: "Prepare and prepare, and set off after the lunch break." ”
"Yes, Zhao Darthead. The dart masters replied in unison.
Zhao An walked to the window and quietly looked at the Menghe River outside the window. Suddenly, a sense of crisis arose, Zhao An suddenly looked back at the door of the tavern, and saw a young man in a white robe enter the store. The young man has a handsome face, a slender body, and an extraordinary temperament.
It seems that it should be a disciple from the great sect who has traveled, Zhao An silently looked at the young man.
"Little Er, come with some fennel beans and a pot of wine. The youth said.
"Okay, guest officer, please. ”
After the young man greeted Xiao Er, he walked directly to Zhao An's location and said, "Little brother, you seem to have been looking at me just now!"
Sure enough, it was a master, Zhao An smiled and said: "This big brother is very angry." Little brother, I couldn't help but look at it twice. If you are offended, a lot of Haihan. ”
"It's okay, I'm just a little curious, but brother, you have entered the blood marrow realm at a young age, you are really a hero of a young man!" the young man smiled.
Just as Zhao An was about to talk to the young man, a young girl in a white robe ran into the tavern and shouted at the young man in a complaining tone: "Senior Brother Xu, why are you here to drink again." I was already punished by the master once last time. ”
"Hahaha, little junior sister, you have to make sure you don't see anything!" the young man replied with a smile. Zhao An also looked towards the source of the sound. The girl is only twenty-eight years old, but she is slim and elegant, like a green lotus. In particular, her face can be said to be incomparable to few people, with bright eyes and bright teeth, eyebrows like distant daisies, with the grace of a water town woman, she should be from Haizhou.
"Goodbye then, little brother. ”
Zhao An watched the two of them gradually move away, thinking that he really deserved to be a disciple of the great sect, and his bearing was extraordinary. But at least leave a name!
......
In the room of an inn in River Town, the pair of brothers and sisters were packing up their things just now.
The young man said as he packed his luggage: "That young man had some problems just now, but he can detect that I am not ordinary in the Blood Marrow Realm. I've obviously used the Qi Gathering Technique to hide my aura. ”
"Senior Brother Xu, don't be suspicious. Let's hurry up and find Senior Brother Su!" the girl said.
"Okay. I hope Senior Brother Su is okay. The young man sighed.
......
In the Shuangdi Mountains, the sun is gradually setting, and the time has entered dusk. A team of centaurs was searching for something, when one of them suddenly said, "I've found a clue." ”
On the other side of the mountain, a man dressed in a green coat and wearing a blue belt stood on the edge of a cliff, as if waiting for something. At this time, a small black dot appeared in the sky, and the black dot was getting closer and closer, and it turned out to be a carrier pigeon. The carrier pigeon fluttered and landed on the shoulder of the man in Tsing Yi, who took the letter and looked at it, and sneered: "In Huangzhou, I can still let you run." Hehe, the golden cicada is out of its shell, it's really a good strategy. ”
......
The sun sets, the moon rises, and night falls.
After seven days of water travel and two days of land travel, Zhao An and his entourage finally arrived at the destination of this trip: Shanjiao Town, Shuangdi Mountain Range. Zhao An asked the others to go to the inn to rest first, and he went to find the person who handed over the goods.
The light of the full moon fell on the forest, and there was silence everywhere. Zhao An came to the agreed place outside the town, but there was no one here. It seemed that the employer had not yet arrived, so Zhao An had to find a clean ground to sit down and rest.
Zhao An looked at the Shuangdi Mountain Range in the mist in the distance, it is said that this mountain range was formed by the battle of two human immortals, and its origin is extraordinary, and many terrifying rumors have spread from it. Human immortals, the ceiling of this world's martial arts, but for some reason Kyushu has not seen human immortals appear for a long time.
The surrounding trees make noise in the wind. A figure appeared in front of Zhao An, Zhao Anxin tightened, got up, drew his knife, luckily, and shouted: "Who?"
Under the moonlight, Zhao An saw clearly what the figure looked like. He was not tall, with long hair, dressed in a white robe, and his face was very white, as if he had some internal injuries.
"Little brother, don't panic, I'm the one who entrusted your dart game. When the man said this, he coughed twice.
"How do you prove that you are an employer?" Zhao An said vigilantly. This man suddenly rushed out and said that he was the employer, who would believe it? But this robe is so familiar.
"What I'm going to hand over to you is a box. ”
"That's right, there should be no problem!, but you put things on the ground," Zhao An was still vigilant.
"This is what I want you to bring to the big flower rice shop in the deserted city. ”
After speaking, the person in front of Zhao An put a black box with a strange pattern on the ground, kicked it over, and after doing this, he left.
When Zhao An saw the man leave, he picked up the box on the ground.
This man is really strange!Wait, isn't the robe on his body the same as the two people he met in River Town seven days ago! This is quite strange!
The mysterious person just now was Su Bo, a disciple of Jingzhou Dao Xuanzong. At this time, he was hiding in the shadows and followed Zhao An closely.
......
In Shanjiao Town, it was midnight when I returned to the inn, there were no pedestrians on the road, and the lights of the inn were only one at the door. Zhao An walked to the door of the inn and was about to knock on the door, but he always felt that something was wrong in his heart. Wait, it seems to have something unusual, and it's bad that it's blood!
Just as Zhao An was about to break in, the door of the inn suddenly exploded, and three long swords wrapped around the light blue cyclone stabbed at Zhao An from the shadows inside the inn.
The sword was like lightning, and Zhao An was not easy to catch hard, so he had no choice but to roll the carp and dodge it, and distance himself towards the street. As soon as Zhao An pulled away from the distance, he let out a loud cry, and his whole body was wrapped in crimson airflow, as if it was burning.
Seeing Zhao An's momentum, the person who secretly attacked couldn't help but stop, and Zhao An also took the opportunity to see the enemy's appearance clearly. All three were wearing the same clothes, blue clothes and blue headbands.
Blue Ribbon in Tsing Yi, Huangnan Xue's!
However, these three people seem to only have viscera realms, and Zhao An is not afraid of them.
The three of them looked at each other, as if they had made up their minds. The three of them re-injected their strength into the sword, raised their bodies and killed Zhao An. Zhao An was not false, he drew his sword and fought with the three of them.
Su Bo looked at the four people from a distance, and couldn't help but be a little confused, could it be that the plan was seen through.
