Chapter 15: Robbery of the Bandits
The majestic Taihang Mountains, stretching for more than 800 miles, start from Youzhou in the north, connect the Yellow River in the south, and close to Luoyang.
It has always been known as the backbone of the Central Plains!
The eastern part of the mountain range, dominated by plains, nurtures a warm atmosphere!
In the western part of the mountain range, there are many hilly plateaus, and the people who live here are wild and uninhibited!
Li Xiaobai and Wen Wan happen to be in these two places, and the people who grew up separately also have a lot of differences in their personalities.
But after just a few days of getting along, I feel more and more harmonious!
......
If you want to be secretive, the two of you can hide in the mountains, travel south to Luoyang, and then enter Chang'an.
It's just that now Wen Wan is seriously injured and can't stand the bumps.
Li Xiaobai thought about it for a long time, and decided to get out of the mountains as soon as possible and rush to Yuanzhou first, so that Wen Wan could recuperate at that time, or he could rent a carriage to hurry.
It's just that no matter how you go, you must first pass through the "Falling Soul Ridge"!
......
"Why does your master want us to go to Chang'an? Since he is so strong, just killing Xiao Chaotian and Yang Hanwen will solve the problem of the five-hundred-year curse? Why do you need to go from death to life like this?"
"If it were so simple, it wouldn't have bothered the people of the world for more than 5,000 years or even longer! Master He has traveled all over the world over the years, looking for immortal traces, just to find out the truth of the 500-year-old curse, but the more he knows, the more terrifying it becomes!"
"Terrible?"
"Yes, master, his realm is already below the immortals, the ultimate in the world, and he is an immortal! Although that step is as difficult as ascending to the sky, it is only one step away from becoming an immortal! There are other people in the same realm in the world, and no one has taken that step in thousands of years, and no one has become an immortal?"
"Immortals!"
Li Xiaobai was confused for a while, and suddenly understood what Wen Wan meant!
"That's right! Not to mention that there are no immortals in the world, and even books and legends have no records of immortals, only some secret stories say that someone ascended to the sky! Or who cultivated to become an immortal! But I have never heard of what happens after becoming an immortal?"
"Well, that's not all! Human history has been recorded for more than 5,000 years, but what about before? Were there any 500-year spells? Were there any immortals?"
Li Xiaobai also felt that it made sense when he heard this, and Wen Wan continued,
"After years of hard work, the master finally found some clues, and learned a place that has something to do with the five-hundred-year spell, called the Shura Battlefield! It is said that the immortals have gone there! And almost all the mysterious events in the world are related to the five-hundred-year spell!"
"Five Hundred Years of Spells, Shura Battlefield!"
"Also, in the Wuzong incident of that year, the four of the seven valves of Guanlong were destroyed, also because of the five-hundred-year curse!"
Li Xiaobai felt incredible when he heard Wen Wan say so much for a while.
"Wu Zong held the sword of the God of War back then, and Li Du was also the descendant of the sword of the god of war! They have been cracking the curse of five hundred years all their lives! So, no matter if you don't have this knife in your hand now, from the moment you took the knife, you have already participated in it!"
"What? Wu Zong is also the one who holds the sword of the God of War? Your Wen family must know what happened back then?"
"That's the top secret of the family, few people know, I only know that Wu Zong once studied in the Li family in Longshan back then, and brought out the sword of the god of war from the Longshan Falling God Valley, and later Li Du also entered there!"
"Could it be that the Valley of the Fallen God is the training ground of the God of War? I haven't been there, so I should be considered a trainee God of War, right?"
Li Xiaobai saw Wen Wan's serious expression and deliberately interrupted.
"Are you really not concerned about anything?"
"No, I've always remembered what you commanded, little brother!"
"You're deliberately mad at me, aren't you?
"How dare I, eldest sister, it seems that I am older than you, right? Sister, you are Guigeng?"
"Get out!"
"Yes, the little brother must get far away!"
......
The two of them chatted, and before they knew it, they had entered the Fallen Soul Ridge.
Li Xiaobai became nervous, just this name, and the mountains and seas collection is specially recorded, it is estimated that the bandits here are extremely strong.
Now Wen Wan is seriously injured and can't do anything, although he is slightly injured, but he is scarred and mentally exhausted, where is the strength to fight hard.
The two men walked cautiously forward.
Then I saw a group of extremely unprofessional bandits!
......
There were about twelve or thirteen people, leaning against the big rocks on the side of the road to bask in the sun!
There are a few wooden sticks and a few knives piled up next to it, and I don't look like I'm ready to rob at all!
Even Li Xiaobai and Wen Wan slowly approached, but no one noticed that several people were still chatting!
"Boss, can we be considered bandits?"
"Probably counted, I have no experience, how do I know what bandits are like, since we occupy this Broken Soul Ridge, we can't lose our identity, the bandits here were famous in the past!"
"But we all farm by ourselves, raise our own chickens, and only occasionally come out to rob them, and we all come home empty-handed! No matter how you look at it, we bandits are like amateurs!"
"You kid knows a fart! Let's be complacent, do it yourself, have enough food and clothing! Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes, yes! What the boss said makes sense! We bandits are doing very happily!"
......
Li Xiaobai almost laughed out loud when he heard their conversation, since they are very happy, don't bother, sneak over!
Light-footed, just about to sneak past while they were not paying attention, a bandit turned his head, just saw it, and immediately jumped up!
"Boss, here's business! Hurry up! Come, business! Don't run!"
The bandit suddenly shouted at the top of his throat, which not only frightened Li Xiaobai, but also frightened a group of bandits to "grunt" and get up all of a sudden!
After calming down, the bandits finally saw Li Xiaobai and Wen Wan.
Hurry up and pick up your weapon and pretend to shout!
That boss, in his thirties, is tall and strong, and looks more powerful!
"You two, it seems to be an outsider, right? Now that you've come to Broken Soul Ridge, leave something behind, right?"
Li Xiaobai hurriedly bowed his hand,
"This big brother, I don't know the honorable name?"
The bandit boss hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to sign up to be a bandit, but after thinking about it, let's follow his own rules!
"Uh-huh! Hurry up and hand over the valuable things on your body, we're just robbing money!"
"Boss Lu, looking at your heroic spirit, you must also see that our two brothers are people in distress, where is there any money on them, don't hide it from Brother Lu, we haven't eaten for two days, can you please give relief to our two brothers?"
"This ......"
Lu Ranger looked at Li Xiaobai and Wen Wan, it was really worse than ordinary refugees!
"Brother Lu, seeing that you are also a hero, you must not die without help!"
This sentence really touched Lu Ranger's emotions!
"Okay! Brothers from all over the world, since you can afford it, little brother, please follow us back to the mountain, let's drink wine and eat meat together!"
Li Xiaobai originally just wanted to mess around and get by, but he didn't expect the other party to really agree!
After thinking about it, I can't see any malicious intent on the other side, the key is that Wen Wan urgently needs to rest now, look at the other party's skills, if there is really something, it is estimated that he can deal with it!
Li Xiaobai and Wen Wan followed Lu Ranger into the Falling Soul Ridge Cottage!
