Chapter 46: A Chance Encounter

It was still raining heavily in the sky, and there was standing water everywhere on the ground.

In such a rainy day, Han Ming did not use the light body technique, this is one of his killer skills, without encountering any life and death struggle, he cannot easily use it in front of people, and now his mana is too shallow, using the light body technique cannot last long, it cannot be used to rush at all, it can only be used to dodge or surprise during the fight.

Han Ming had already practiced Senior Brother Qi's Lost Trace Step to Xiaocheng, and now it came in handy, and he had been practicing footwork in the purple bamboo forest before, where it was also uneven, which was very similar to this heavy rainy day, so he didn't have too much discomfort walking on this dirt road.

At first, a few black guards also considered whether to carry Han Ming on their backs, after all, Han Ming was also a young master no matter what he said, and he was still a young master who studied medicine and poison, and his kung fu should be worse than those young masters who practiced some flower fists and embroidered legs, so it was not much worse to say that it was difficult to move an inch in this muddy and heavy rain.

But Han Ming decisively rejected a few black guards, letting these black guards carry them, how could it be! Being carried by others not only completely restrained his movements, but also affected the actions of the black guards, in case of another ambush, Han Ming and the black guards who carried him were afraid that they might be pierced into sugar gourds by feather arrows.

Contrary to the expectations of these black guards, Han Ming also had extraordinary light skills, and he was completely able to keep up with their pace, and he never lagged behind.

Originally, the five black guards deliberately slowed down, wanting to wait for Han Ming, but who knew that Han Ming always had a relaxed expression, they couldn't help but speed up their pace, who knew that Han Ming still kept up with them without a single bit, until they ran with all their might, Han Ming could still keep up with their pace.

This really shocked these black guards, Han Ming, as a fifteen-year-old boy, could now have such extraordinary light skills, then what he cultivated must be the top light skills.

"Could it be the Dragon Exploration Decision?" the black guard at the head said to himself in his heart, but he immediately rejected the idea in his heart.

Although Han Ming is a young master and a disciple of Hua Lao, this kind of light skill is definitely not something he can touch, after all, the light skill of the town gate is not called in vain.

In the end, the black guard led by him had no choice but to attribute Han Ming's top light skills to Hua Lao, because in the entire Zhu Chiyuan, except for the two family masters and the head of the family, I am afraid that only Hua Lao can take this level of light skills!

The two legs of a person are still no match for the four legs of a horse, and although Han Ming and his party are carrying extraordinary light skills, their speed of progress has greatly decreased a lot compared to before.

As soon as Han Ming estimated it, he knew that if his group continued to follow the main road, they would definitely not be able to arrive at the Black Guard camp on time.

In the end, as soon as the few people got together, they planned to abandon the official road and copy some small roads, if nothing else, they would arrive at the black guard camp quickly, otherwise those black guards who relied on the antidote pill to hang their anger were afraid that they would not be able to wait for Han Ming to arrive.

Although this path is close, it may be more difficult to walk, and you may encounter some poisonous insects and beasts, and the most important thing is to go around to the hinterland of those secret agent camps of the Jiayue Kingdom, which is really dangerous.

The idea of taking a shortcut is mainly decided by Han Ming, although this trail is more dangerous, but the lives of the hundreds of black guards in front of him are in danger, and there is no room for delay, this is not that Han Ming has compassion for the world, but these black guards will be an important help for Zhu Yiwen to take over the head of the Huayi Sect, and there can be no big loss, if it is the blood guard of the Chi family who is poisoned, then whether Han Ming will go home or not is a matter of two words.

Han Ming and his party gave up the official road and ran straight to the mountain, the terrain in the mountain is very complicated, and it is dozens of days of heavy rain, and the terrain of the mountain changes a lot, fortunately, one of the black guards has an excellent sense of direction, otherwise Han Ming and his party are likely to circle around the mountain.

The terrain in the mountains has changed dramatically, and there have been large-scale collapses in some places, and there is mud everywhere, and if you don't pay attention, you can sink the whole person, and it is extremely difficult to travel. In some places, the thick trees are forested, and the ground is very flat, and there is no obstacle except for some half-foot-deep water.

An hour later, Han Ming and his entourage were running wildly in three or four inches of stagnant water in their robes, and they all performed good light skills, barely touching the ground with their feet, and from a distance, they looked like they were treading water on the surface of a lake.

Two hours later, Han Ming and his party each stepped on a smooth plank under their feet, taking advantage of the steep slope of the mountain, sliding quickly on the ground, and went straight into the distance.

Half a day later, Han Ming was standing on a small hill, and half a zhang in front of him, the raging flood rushed down the valley with broken branches and stones, and kept rushing into the canyon in the distance, and the rumbling sound was deafening.

Han Ming kicked a half-decayed tree trunk beside him into the surging flood in front of him, this tree trunk was submerged by the flood at once, and when this tree trunk emerged from the water again, it was already ten zhang away.

This tree trunk only came out of the water for a breath, and was slapped into the water by a big wave, and then disappeared completely, Han Ming couldn't help frowning when he saw this, it seemed that he was completely looking for death by wading through the water.

But then it was the turn of the blackguards to play a role, and I saw that each of them took off their robes and coats, and then took off a set of chain mail from their bodies, and with a shake of their hands, those sets of chain mail became a very thin chain.

Several black guards clasped the chains together, forming a thin chain of fifty or sixty feet.

A black guard took down the crossbow machine from his back, he put an arrow on one end of the chain, and then installed the arrow on the crossbow machine, and as soon as the crossbow machine was closed, the arrow went straight out, and was slightly nailed to a mountain wall on the opposite side of the torrent, and then there was a chain on the torrent, and they used the same method to hit two chains.

With these chains, Han Ming and the others successfully passed through the torrent, and after passing through the torrent, several black guards took back their chains, but they didn't have time to weave chain armor and wear it on their bodies, so they wrapped it around their waists, and then ran wildly in the rain again.

Han Ming and his party ran in the mountains and forests for about half a day, and the black guard, who had an excellent sense of direction, stopped, and at the same time raised his right hand, signaling Han Ming and the others to stop.

It was up to this black guard to identify the road along the way, otherwise they would have been lost in the heavy mountains, so Han Ming and the others still listened to this black guard's words.

"Young Master Ming, there should be a temporary camp for those spies ahead, we can bypass this spy camp, and we can reach our Black Guard's station by walking dozens of miles, and then we will be safe. The black guard named Yiba lowered his voice and said to Han Ming.

"Oh, it's finally here, so let's go around and lead the way. Han Ming replied in a low voice.

When Han Ming and his party were about to go around, Han Ming's face suddenly changed, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, and then he closed his eyes, and then he listened with his ears pricked up.

"Someone is coming, there are five people in total, one in the front, four in the back, quickly get rid of the traces, don't be discovered, and then hide. Han Ming said quickly in a low voice, and at the same time, his feet moved, and he began to quickly erase the footprints.

The five black guards reacted immediately when they heard this, and immediately erased the footprints when they came, but the footprints on the ground are not shallow, which is really not too easy to deal with, and the water on the soles of the feet is also muddy, so it is really not good to clean it at once.

"It's close, there's no time, go up the tree first. Han Ming frowned again, and then without saying much, he directly kicked his feet towards the tree trunk next to him, and slapped his hands on the trunk again, and his body was like a dexterous ape running straight towards the tree.

At this time, several black guards also heard the footsteps from far and near, and they did not dare to slack off, and climbed up the tree with both feet, and their bodies were also very flexible, and they jumped to the height of the tree in two or three breaths.

After going up the tree, the blackguards were all lying on the branches, motionless, completely restrained their breath, and did not dare to come out, but their eyes were staring at the tree without blinking.

After waiting for a while, a black-robed figure rushed out of a bush in a panic, the black-robed man covered his abdomen tightly with both hands, but blood continued to gush out from there, and it was obvious that the black-robed man was seriously injured in the abdomen.

The black-robed man looked behind him as he ran, as if some vicious person was chasing him behind him, he was seriously injured, the rain was slippery, and he fell to the ground before he could stand firmly.

The black-robed man supported the ground with one hand, trying to stand up, but the soles of his feet slipped and fell to the ground again, and he tried several more times before he finally reluctantly stood up.

After standing up, he smiled bitterly, and stopped running, he looked at the wound on his abdomen, reached into his arms and took out a small porcelain bottle, poured some pills into his mouth, and then he just stood there and looked coldly in the direction he came, as if waiting for something.

Under the heavy rain, the mist couldn't really see the appearance of this person, but the black-robed person under the tree was wearing the standard martial arts robe of the Zhu family's black guard, it was obvious that this was a Zhu family's black guard, but I didn't know why a Zhu family's black guard appeared behind the spy camp, and he was seriously injured and was chased by others.

After about four or five breaths, three people broke out of the bush again, and this person saw that the injured black-robed man was standing there and did not run, and suddenly laughed evilly, and then stood not far from the black-robed man and did not move.

These three people had evil faces, holding three-foot long swords in their hands, standing there motionless, letting the rain cross their faces, their bodies were amazing, their foreheads were high and protruding, and they looked like masters of practicing external skills.

At this time, another person appeared in the bushes, and the new person was wearing a big red robe, he was tall, but he was wearing a red oil cloth umbrella, and his face was covered with thick rouge, and he couldn't distinguish between men and women, and now he was walking slowly towards the black-robed man.

"The Zhu family's Jiazi Black Guard, Qinglin Water Swallow Jiaqi, come to steal my antidote, hehe, this time you will become a dead swallow, see how you still fly. The red-robed man who was neither male nor female grinned.

The wounded black guard didn't say a word, just stared coldly at the red-robed man, his right hand covering his abdomen vigorously, and his left hand tightly clutching a half-foot dagger.

"Yo Yo Yo, I didn't speak yet, I looked at people coldly, they were so scared. The red-robed man's voice was shrill and harsh, like a eunuch.

"Didn't you go back to Zhu Chiyuan to move the doctor, why did you still come to steal my antidote, hehe, is your doctor useless? Can't cure my poison, or did your doctor die halfway through? Hehe, where did you poison the poisoner of the entire Lizhou Li family! Hehe, I can wait to kill him!" The red-robed man Orchid pointed in the direction of a little nail seven, still smiling, but this appearance of not being a man or a woman is really disgusting.

Seeing that this red-robed man was neither male nor female, Han Ming, who was hiding in the tree, frowned.
