Liuyun Sword Sect 118
"Brother, what's going on?" Sun Bao saw that his eldest brother's face was so ugly, and he immediately wondered.
Sun Hu stared at the convoy at the mouth of the canyon and scolded with an ugly face: "The convoy is separated!"
"What?" Sun Bao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look up at the mouth of the canyon, which was really the same as what his eldest brother said. The convoy was divided into two parts.
In the first part, several Sword Sect disciples escorted more than a dozen carriages full of goods to take the first step, while the carriage in which Jia Tianpeng's family was riding stayed in place and watched, as if someone in the convoy sensed that something was wrong.
"Big brother, did they find out about us?" Sun Bao scolded angrily.
Sun Hu shook his head: "Not necessarily, if they find out about everyone, they will definitely take a detour, and they won't dare to run here knowing that we are ambushing them!"
"Then why did they do this?" Sun Bao was puzzled.
"These people should be exploring the way!" Sun Hu stared at the carriage slowly approaching below, touched his smooth brain, and scolded in a low voice: "Damn, these guys can't smell any wind!"
"Big brother, what should I do, watch these people run away, do it!" Sun Bao said eagerly.
Sun Hu hurriedly pressed his shoulder and stopped: "Don't worry, wait!"
"Big brother, all of Jia Tianpeng's belongings must be here, let them run away, and we will give up all our efforts!" Sun Bao was so anxious that his eyes were red, for them greedy bandits, it was strange not to be red when he watched a bunch of gold and silver treasures run away.
Sun Hu hesitated for a while, and said irritably: "What are you anxious about, Jia Tianpeng's carriage is still at the mouth of the canyon, once they know that there is an ambush here, then they will definitely run away, how can they explain to our employer when the time comes?"
"Big brother, don't you see, there are nearly ten carriages here, all of which are real money! What are you hesitating about, then Jia Tianpeng ran away, he must still be in the Qingzhou territory these days, we have a chance to catch it! But if you let these gold and silver treasures go unattended, the loss will be great!" Sun Bao greedily stared at the slowly moving convoy below, and he was so anxious that he turned around.
Sun Hu snorted: "Shut up, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan!"
The convoy was divided into two parts, in fact, Lu Chen deliberately arranged it this way, he had a hunch that there were bandits in the Iron Sword Canyon, so for the sake of insurance, he led thirty Sword Sect disciples to take the goods one step ahead, and after they confirmed that they were safe, he asked Murong Ziyun to bring Jia Tianpeng and them over. If things changed, Murong Ziyun would lead Jia Tianpeng's family to retreat quickly.
The sudden change made Sun Hu and Sun Bao, who had been ambushed for a long time, dumbfounded, and they didn't know whether to do it in advance or wait for Jia Tianpeng's family to come over before doing it. So, at this critical juncture, the two brothers had a disagreement on ideas.
The younger brother Sun Bao wants to do it directly, but Sun Hu has to wait because he promised his employer to arrest Jia Tianpeng's family alive. But his younger brother Sun Bao is a short-tempered, impatient, and very greedy for money, how can he let these gold and silver treasures slip away from under his nose.
"No, Lao Tzu must them!" Sun Bao glared at the beads of his eyes and said, for them thieves, snatching real money is the king's way, and the benefits promised by others are floating clouds.
Sun Hu hurriedly dissuaded: "Leopard, don't mess around!"
"Big brother, aren't you excited about so many gold and silver treasures!" Sun Bao retorted, turned his head and shouted at the thieves behind him: "Brothers, do it for Lao Tzu!"
With Sun Bao's order, all the bandits who were lying in ambush behind stood up, holding stones in their hands and smashing them frantically downward, while some archers opened their bows and arrows and shot indiscriminately at the carriage below.
Lu Chen took the lead in the front, and behind him were thirty Sword Sect escorting more than a dozen carriages to the canyon, before entering the canyon, he reminded these brothers to say hello, be careful that there are bandits nearby, thirty Sword Sect disciples heard Lu Chen's reminder, and were very vigilant along the way.
"This canyon is really steep, like a knife split, no wonder it has the name of Iron Knife Gorge. Lu Chen looked up at the two sides of the canyon, as if the two naturally formed high walls, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Iron Knife Canyon is narrow enough for four horses to drive along, with a total length of nearly five kilometers, and even though it has snowed in the past few days, the temperature inside is still quite warm, and there is no snow to be seen. The wheels crunched on the gravel floor, making it seem utterly silent.
"Hmph, these people are really calm!" Lu Chen muttered to himself as he walked, but his eyes kept scanning the mountainside, looking like he was wandering, but he was actually very vigilant about the movements around him.
Suddenly, there was a sound of killing in the silent canyon, and a large number of figures appeared on the mountainside, carrying huge boulders and falling from the sky, mixed with bows and arrows like raindrops, and the battle was extremely terrifying.
"It's a bandit, be careful!" Lu Chen had been on guard for a long time, so when these bandits appeared, they didn't seem to be so panicked.
As if they had received a unified order, those Sword Sect disciples quickly turned over and dismounted, and got under the carriage like lightning, allowing the boulders and arrows to fall, and they could not hurt them in the slightest.
"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"... With a large number of rocks falling, smashing on the carriage and smashing on the horses, the gravel and arrows scattered all over the ground, causing a huge movement in the canyon.
Immediately afterwards, after the first wave of ambushes, Sun Leopard, the leader of the bandits, led a group of bandits with weapons and swarmed from the other side of the canyon, looking murderous, as if they were going to swallow Lu Chen and them alive.
"Kill them all, not one of them will be left!" Sun Bao roared.
His eldest brother stood halfway up the mountain, looking at this scene, his expression was ugly, and he gritted his teeth and scolded: "This idiot!"
When dozens of thieves rushed over, Lu Chen's face suddenly showed a cold smile: "Sure enough, there is an ambush, I've been waiting for you for a long time, brothers, give it to me!"
He himself instantly drew the two swords he carried at any time, jumped up from the saddle, and rushed into the bandit like a flock of sheep, killing all sides.
The black heavy sword in his left hand and the silver soft sword in his right hand rushed into the group of bandits, and the two sword lights rolled up like a whirlwind.
Those Sword Sect disciples who had been hiding under the carriage in advance saw the bandits rushing towards them, so they hurriedly got out of the carriage, drew their swords and rushed forward.
Although these Sword Sect disciples are not elite disciples, at least they all have the strength of the acquired fivefold, and the sect has been cultivating them by training the army, and there is naturally no pressure to deal with a group of rabble.
The two sides were on the verge of breaking out in an instant, and the bandits thought that they had been ambushed before, and their strength must have been greatly damaged, but they didn't expect that when those boulders and bows and arrows fell, they didn't hurt a single hair of the Sword Sect disciple at all.
Sun Bao was too anxious for quick success, but he didn't know that Lu Chen had already guessed that there were bandits in the Iron Knife Gorge before he set off, so he took precautions in advance.
The disciples of the Sword Sect rushed into the group of bandits, and there was no doubt that a group of wolves rushed into the flock. The strength of the two sides was very different, and soon the arrogance of the bandits was suppressed.
Most of these thieves are ordinary people who live in the grass and have no strength, where can they be compared to these well-trained Sword Sect disciples.
"A group of bandits also dare to be rampant, and they don't measure their strength!" Lu Chen held two swords, and with a flicker of his figure, he took away several lives.
The soft sword is elegant and flexible, the heavy sword is powerful and heavy, and the two completely different sword intents are displayed in the same person's hands, which is extremely terrifying.
Before some of the thieves could see the figures, their necks were wiped open by the misty sword light, and then their eyes were glazed and they fell limply, leaving a pool of eye-catching blood on the gray ground of the canyon.
Sun Bao looked at the brothers who kept falling around him, and was suddenly blindsided, what is going on, have many of these people been ambushed by them before, why are there so many people?
Peng, a figure suddenly smashed from in front of him like a cannonball, and slammed into the other bandit, clicking, and the sound of bones breaking clearly sounded.
Sun Bao was excited, and when he looked back, he saw a young man in a light blue robe holding two swords, standing among the dead bodies all over the place and looking at him, his eyes were as cold as swords.
"Who sent you here!" Lu Chen said indifferently.
Sun Bao held a wide battle axe and roared, "Who are you!"
"Sword Sect disciple, Lu Chen!"
"It turns out that you are Lu Chen, it seems that I underestimated you before!" Sun Bao licked the corners of his mouth and sneered.
"Say, who instructed you to ambush here!" Lu Chen's heavy sword pointed diagonally at the ground, the soft sword was behind his back, and he walked slowly, drops of blood flowed down the blade, ticking, and spilling a line on the ground.
Sun Bao sneered: "No one has instructed us, besides, even if someone instructs us to ambush you, you can't control it! In this acre and three points of land, Lao Tzu is the emperor of the soil, since you people are here today, no one wants to get out alive!"
"Very good, very arrogant, I hope you can be as tough as you will be later!" Lu Chen said expressionlessly.
"Hmph, it's up to you?" Sun Leopard snorted disdainfully, he had been crisscrossing the Iron Knife Canyon for more than ten years, and he had never seen such an arrogant person, and even if he had, he had already become the unjust soul of this canyon.
"Don't you believe it?" The corners of Lu Chen's mouth raised slightly, and his body moved, and he was in front of the other party in an instant.
The black heavy sword stabbed at the opponent like a phantom!
