Chapter 5: The Road Is Uneven
After leaving Cangmu City, Sishui traveled for another day and night. During this period, except for a few times when his aura was exhausted and he stopped to breathe for a few hours, he didn't even eat a mouthful of dry food. He had crossed two or three cities, and it was only after walking a hundred miles that he could slow down. After that, he gathered his aura and rushed to the road like an ordinary person.
Three days passed.
Sishui is walking in a deserted countryside. It is only a dozen miles away from the next Youzhou City.
At this moment, he faintly heard the sound of fighting in the distance. He hurriedly gathered his breath and quietly walked towards the source of the sound.
Behind the bushes, the cats saw three black-clad masked men besieging a blue-robed man in front of them. Moreover, there were more than a dozen corpses around. Eight or nine of them were dressed in black and masked like the other three, and the other four or five were uniformly dressed in khaki. From this point of view, those people should be the companions of the blue-robed man.
Both sides moved extremely quickly, and various shimmers of light appeared in front of them.
Reiki is actually a spirit master!! the spirit master who is high up on weekdays is not only everywhere now, but also fights in this wilderness for no reason. Sishui secretly exclaimed in his heart.
Although there are many people in black, the cultivation of the blue-robed man is also extremely good. Although the man in black attacked fiercely, the opponent still methodically defused them one by one. The two sides fought for more than a dozen rounds, and it was difficult to distinguish between them.
It was a stalemate, but suddenly a tall man in black took half a step back, and his cuffs loosened. Something slipped from the cuff and into his hand. I saw that the man's wrist flicked, and the hidden weapon in his hand shot out.
However, judging from the direction of the hidden weapon, it was not directed at the blue-robed man.
The four waters saw it along the point of the hidden weapon. only to find that there was a cardamom girl in a white dress and a pink skirt behind the tree dozens of steps behind the blue-robed man. At this time, she was poking her head out and looking at the blue-robed man with a worried expression. She didn't even notice that a secret weapon was coming at her.
Just as the four waters hesitated, a spiritual aura burst out in front of them. More than forty spiritual apertures lit up on the blue-robed man's body, and his body twisted and shot backwards in the direction of the girl. When the hidden weapon arrived, Kankan arrived and pushed the girl with his left hand. Unfortunately, he was scratched by a hidden weapon.
The blue-robed man glanced at the wound on his arm, and said with an unhappy expression: "Who are you? Don't you know who we are? No matter who instructed you, I can give you double the benefits." As long as you retreat from here, I promise that I will not pursue it. ”
With that, he pointed his fingers at the wound on his arm. A blue-green glimmer sprouted from the wound, and the bleeding from the wound stopped instantly.
Seeing this, the man in black was not worried but happy, and the tall man in black who used the hidden weapon slowly spoke: "Of course we know who you are, otherwise we wouldn't have been looking for you for a few days." You'd better just tie your hands down, and I can consider leaving you a whole corpse. ”
"Brother, you go quickly, don't worry about me. The girl said.
The blue-robed man smiled slightly, touched the girl's head dotingly, and said, "Little sister, don't worry. With the second brother here, he will be able to protect you. Although these people are good at cultivation, the second brother is not an idle person. It's not that simple for them to take my life. Later, I will hold them back with all my might, and you hurry up to Youzhou City to move the rescue troops. ”
"Giggles!~~ I just want to run now, it's too late. The other man in black chuckled and said.
"How do you know if you don't try. The blue-robed man raised the long sword in his hand, looked solemn, and spoke.
Suddenly, he felt his spiritual energy agitate, his body went limp, and he half-knelt on the ground. After a while, the aura on his body slowly collapsed and returned to heaven and earth.
He secretly said that something was wrong, glanced at his opponent, and said with difficulty: "The secret weapon is poisonous." ”
"That's right, this kind of thing is called Sanlingsan. It is not harmful to ordinary people, but it is highly poisonous to spirit masters. As long as it sticks for a moment, the aura of the whole body will collapse. It's only half an hour, but it's enough. The tall man in black sneered.
"Despicable!" the girl scolded angrily, stopped in front of the blue-robed man, and said, "With me here, you don't want to hurt my second brother!"
The tall man in black didn't pay any attention to the girl's words, and after thinking for a while, he said to the other two: "The man is killed, and the head is taken away." Woman, you can figure it out yourself. ”
Hearing this, the two narrowed their eyes, rubbed their palms, and walked quickly towards the girl. Although I can't see my face, I guess I must be looking lewd under the mask.
Just as they were about to do something wrong, a lazy voice came.
"Hey, hey!! what are you going to do in broad daylight?"
The person who spoke was the four waters that had been watching for a long time. Although he didn't want to be nosy, he couldn't bear to see a cardamom girl about to be defiled by a villain. So, stood up at a critical moment.
When the three black-clothed men saw someone suddenly appearing in front of them, they were startled at first, and then retreated together to look at the person. When they saw the four waters dressed in black robes, with long swords hanging from their waists, and swordsmen dressed up, they were wary.
After a while, the tall man laughed loudly and said, "It turns out that the young hero saves the beauty." Then we will be a favor today, and this girl will be handed over to you. ”
Si Shui glanced at the girl who was supporting the blue-robed man, frowned, 'groaned', and said, "I see that the two of them are dependent on each other for life and death." If you want to be a favor, why don't you do it to the end, and send that man to me. ”
"Boy, you're looking for death!"
Another man in black scolded, holding a silver-white ring knife towards the four waters.
Sishui shook his head helplessly, but his body was completely unmoved.
Seeing that the blade of the knife was in front of Sishui's body, he took half a step back with his right foot and twisted his waist. The blade of the sword landed in front of him.
It's a split!
The man in black was furious, the luck was in the sea of qi in his body, and the aura surrounded his body, and more than thirty faint light clusters lit up on his limbs. I didn't expect a black-clothed killer who didn't dare to show his true face to have the strength of a three-star spirit master.
The tip of his knife was a little to the ground, and his left arm turned around to strike at Sishui.
Si Shui was not in a hurry, supported it with the palm of his hand, twisted his body, and used the scabbard at his waist to make a little of his knee joint.
The black man fell to the ground at once, and his mouth cried out in pain.
Sishui trampled the person under his feet, the corners of his mouth curled, and asked with a smile: "How about my proposal, how are you thinking about it?"
"Let's get on it!"
The man in black at the head seemed to ignore him and whispered.
I saw two people, with four streamers in their hands, and at the same time, their figures were left and right, holding long knives in front and back of the four waters.
Seeing this, Sishui didn't know how to do it, kicked his feet, and his body flew into the air to avoid those few hidden weapons.
But as soon as he landed, he saw that the sword of the man in black had come from the left and right. The man who had stepped on his feet before also stood up as he was in the air, striking in front of him.
Sishui didn't dare to slack off, the spiritual aperture in the body was running, the aura surrounded the body, and the body lit up more than 50 spiritual apertures. He ran the aura on his feet, took two steps back, held the sheath in his left hand, and held the sword in his right hand, just blocking the two blades on the left and right. The left foot exerts force, and the right foot is whipped forward. kicked it in the face of the man in black who rushed in front of him, kicking him more than ten meters away.
With Si Shui's kick, the white jade pendant also accidentally fell from his waist.
The tall man in black looked at the one who was kicked away, his brows furrowed, and then his eyes were attracted by the falling white jade. After a short look, he exclaimed, "How is it possible!"
Si Shui was unimpressed by the exclamation of the man in black, and said proudly: "Isn't it just kicking out more than ten meters away, nothing is impossible." As everyone knows, these two people are not talking about the same thing.
The tall man in black glared at Sishui viciously, gritted his teeth, and ordered, "Withdraw!"
After saying that, the two of them took the injured one and rushed away.
Looking at their departing figures, Sishui shrugged his shoulders disdainfully and muttered, "That's it, it's boring." With that, he picked up the white jade pendant that had fallen on the ground.
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and suddenly realized: "Could it be this!"
I was about to chase after it, and a sweet voice came from my ear. "Thank you for saving your life!"
He looked back, and the person who spoke had willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, red lips and bright teeth, a red treasure and gold hairpin on his black bun, and a white plum pattern embroidered on the white dress and pink skirt, it was the girl.
Sishui could see it, and the girl didn't feel that her cheeks were slightly red, and she coughed lightly.
At this time, he reacted, smiled, hugged his fists and said: "When the road is uneven, draw a knife to help, no need to say thanks." I don't know why they were hunted down?"
"This.—" The girl paused for a moment, and looked back at her brother.
The blue-robed man stepped forward, folded his hands, and said: "Under Li Wenyuan, this is the sister-in-law Li Qing, thank Brother Tai for saving her life! Don't hide this brother-in-law, our brother and sister are from Xiangzhou in the southwest, and our father is Li Bin, the king of southern Xiangnan. This time, I went to Kyoto to do some things at the behest of my father. Recently, the situation between Korea and China has been turbulent, and my father has quite a lot of influence in the southwest. I am afraid that the offender will take us hostage to blackmail my father, and then support him. As he spoke, he shook his head helplessly.
Sishui secretly thought that it was clear that someone came to take his life, but he was said to be holding him hostage. It seems that this Li Wenyuan did not tell the truth to himself. However, Sishui didn't care. It's also a whim to save them, so I hope I don't get into trouble because of this.
Several people exchanged names, exchanged names and exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then parted.
Li Wenyuan hoped that Sishui could go together many times, but Sishui shirked it for some reason. Sishui naturally knew that if they continued to walk together, there would definitely be more trouble. He was originally a fisherman by the river, and he was used to his idle days, and he didn't want to make unknown troubles. What's more, his own affairs are still confused. Come to think of it, those men in black should know something. But it's a pity that they've been far away.
After seeing the Li family brothers and sisters leave, Sishui said to this deserted suburb: "Everyone is gone, don't hide, come out!"
