Chapter 54: An Unexpected Cicada
The weather is still cold, but there is no wind and snow, which is a rare good weather.
In order to facilitate the journey, the prisoners were shackled by the removal of their legs. Don't think about handcuffs alone, you have to wear them honestly.
Old man Chen's body and bones are okay, and he won't die of exhaustion on the road.
He walked side by side with Liu Tugou, and was even in the mood to talk about the past and the present with the second master: "Does the little brother know the origin of the word 'unties'? It started during the exile of the prisoners. ”
After rushing for half a month in a row, no accidents happened, and the second master was also bored, and he was missing the Lao Bai in his heart, and he said with great interest: "How do you say it?"
Old man Chen smiled slightly, and subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to brush his beard, but found that he was wearing shackles on his hands, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and sad, so he hurriedly cheered up and said: "The prisoner also has to and pee on the road, so I have to beg the messenger to open the handcuffs." ”
"Ask the adults to untie the handcuffs, and the villain will be on the tuba...... Ask the adults to untie the handcuffs, and the villain will be on the trumpet...... Ask for an adult...... Adults don't need it, villains...... The villain has run out of pee......"
Old man Chen would tell some anecdotes from time to time on the road, and when he started talking again today, he had already attracted the attention of a group of prisoners and soldiers, and they couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.
"You think, it's so troublesome to say this, and you're so anxious that you have to pull your crotch before you finish speaking!"
At the front of the team, Gao Ziyu stopped Xu Xun, who was riding with him with a smile and was already angry: "Don't be impatient, it's not the first time, it's not too late to punish after listening." ”
Xu Xun was just pretending, and when he heard the words, he got off the donkey downhill.
Shen Dagongzi, who didn't remember to eat, squeezed to Liu Tugou and Chen Hongyu's side, and said with a smile: "What can I do?"
Chen Hongyu didn't sell Guan Zi either, and said with a smile: "Over time, this sentence has been simplified by the prisoners, my lord, untie your little hands...... My lord, untie your big hand. Somehow, the word "untie" spread, and even ordinary people began to use it. ”
"Lao Chen, you are eloquent, it's really condescending not to tell stories, I know a descendant of the Nanshi clan, and I also love to tell stories, but my eloquence is not as good as you. ”
Liu Tugou remembered Ah Rafter, presumably that guy was now visiting a historic site in a corner of the Western Regions.
Everyone marched all the way, except for Chen Hongyu, who needed Liu Tugou's support and help, most of them were strong and had some cultivation, and the speed of movement was not slow.
Near noon, the procession passed through a valley, and there was a stone monument standing next to the valley entrance road, and three words were engraved on the tablet - Lost Fox Valley.
Liu Tugou's heart moved when he saw the inscription, this place name can be compared with the second master's master.
He looked towards the valley and saw that there were many towering giant trees in the valley, and everywhere he saw was a dense greenery, which was rare in the north in the middle of winter.
However, he had already seen Qingping Mountain, which was negative yin and hugged yang, and he didn't particularly care about the strangeness of this valley.
There are mountains and forests, and there are naturally water sources.
Xu Xun ordered the rush to stop, and arranged for a few soldiers to go to the mountain stream to fetch water, and the rest rested under the shade of the trees beside the road, and were not allowed to move around at will.
Liu Tugou and Old Man Chen sat on the ground, took out the dry food prepared by the post station, and prepared to sacrifice to the Five Organs Temple first.
Shen Dagongzi moved next to the second master without seeing it, sat down with his ass, and said flatteringly: "The second master has heard of the legend of this Lost Fox Valley?"
Liu Tugou glanced at Shen Dagongzi and said, "You know?"
Shen Dagongzi's eyebrows immediately fluttered, and he said proudly: "This son is not talented, and he knows a little bit about it." ”
Liu Tugou snorted and said, "The second master doesn't want to hear it, so I'll stay and go." ”
Shen Dagongzi stood up in disdain, looked around, and saw Nan Tianzhu sitting alone in the distance, his eyes lit up, and he was about to step over.
In addition to asking for apprenticeship once a day, Nan Tianzhu is still used to being alone the rest of the time.
He obviously also saw Shen Dagongzi, his dark and thin face immediately tensed, and his eyes were vigilant.
These two guys who were born to rush also had to make trouble every day as usual, although they were inevitably taught a hard lesson by Xu Xun afterwards, and the two of them were bruised all over their bodies, but Shen Dagongzi was still happy to do it.
And Nan Tianzhu, a stubborn guy, has never learned a lesson, and it is strange to say that except for the second master, he only listened to Xu Xun's words, but it was an exception in the matter of fighting with Shen Dagongzi.
It's just that today, Nan Tianzhu's reaction seems to be extraordinarily big.
He stood up suddenly, screamed angrily, and slammed his hands together, and the handcuffs made of heavy iron snapped apart with a clatter, and were thrown to the ground.
Nan Tianzhu, who suddenly got out of trouble, did not hesitate, turned around and flew towards the Misty Fox Valley, the speed was amazing, and he burrowed into the flourishing trees in a few leaps, which made people unable to catch up.
The first fat cicada to emerge turned out to be Nan Tianzhu, a black and thin man who seems to be simple-minded and stubborn.
Xu Xun roared angrily, and the person had already flown up, like an angry brute bear, and crashed into the forest violently.
"Gao Ziyu, take care of these bastards, if there is any abnormal movement, kill!"
Most people hadn't understood what was going on, Nan Tianzhu and Xu Xun had disappeared from everyone's sight one after another.
Gao Ziyu's face turned pale, and he got up and ordered: "All the sergeants obey the order!"
In this escort, in addition to the chief and deputy envoys, there were two other chiefs and 20 soldiers, at this time, when they saw the deputy envoy who was generous along the way, they were angry, and suddenly remembered the murderous reputation of this "ochre-clothed eagle", and they all knew that the situation was not right, and they couldn't help but be awe-inspiring, and replied in unison: "Yes!"
"Each person is watching a prisoner, but if there is any change, there is no need to ask for life, kill immediately!"
"No!"
Twenty soldiers quickly dispersed, drawing knives in their hands, each of them against the back of a prisoner, even Chen Hongyu, who was powerless.
The number of soldiers was more than the prisoners, and the rest of the people surrounded Liu Tugou and Shen Dagongzi, two qi cultivation masters, and the two leaders who were at the peak of the foundation realm personally led the team to guard them.
Being held around the neck by several long knives, Liu Tugou and Shen Dagongzi suddenly couldn't move.
In order to prevent the two Qi Cultivation Realm prisoners from joining forces, Gao Ziyu immediately ordered Shen Dagongzi to be taken away from Liu Tugou.
Shi Chang, who had been ordered, was really polite, and pulled up the collar of Shen Dagongzi and left.
Shen Dagongzi was pulled and stumbled, and he couldn't help but be annoyed in his heart.
He opened his mouth and just wanted to speak, but suddenly felt a darkness in the air, and when he looked up suddenly, he saw a black figure coming out of a big tree next to the road on the right, and rushed straight down towards Liu Erye behind him!
The soldiers separated and surrounded the prisoners, and at the same time they were themselves separated by the prisoners. At this time, Liu Tugou had only one chief and three soldiers by his side.
The chief reacted very quickly, almost without thinking, and the long knife in his hand was flirted with his backhand, setting off a knife wind before he shouted: "Who is it?"
The other three soldiers looked up in unison, but the knives in their hands were already a line slower.
This is the difference between elite veterans and recruits, battlefield confrontations, life and death are only in an instant, how can you see clearly, you must always start first to live for a long time.
Gao Ziyu was about to be angry, he suddenly pulled out the bamboo cane on his waist, and flew towards the battle group centered on Liu Tugou, angry and angry, but it was obviously too late.
At this moment, almost everyone's attention was focused on the figure in the air, but they ignored Liu Tugou, who was targeted.
Second Master Liu, who was unwilling to be lonely, raised his head, and his eyes were extremely bright and bright.
Open your mouth, inhale, swallow the sky!
