2. The first time I heard about cultivating immortals

In the Minbo City on the coast of the Yue Kingdom, in the private room of a large restaurant, a young warrior in brocade clothes and two retinue warriors were tasting fine wine and seafood.

A tall and thin retinue warrior was concerned about his family and asked, "Young master, when will we be able to return to Wu Kingdom!"

"The current monarch of Zhao State, the only two sons have died of illness, and he wants to choose one of the princely heirs of the Zhao family as the new prince. Zhao Kuangqing, the king of this small gui, competed with other princes for the crown prince, but unfortunately lost the struggle and had to flee. But this little king will never be reconciled, I will go to the East China Sea to find the immortal village, become an immortal cultivator, and kill back to Zhao in the future, and clean up those who are against me. ”

The young warrior in brocade said angrily.

"Little prince, we will definitely do our best to help you!"

Another man-like attendant said loudly.

"By the way, this Xiaowang sent Liu Ming to the harbor yesterday to buy a big ship to go to sea, and I haven't seen him until now, I don't know if this guy has bought it?!"

The young warrior in brocade asked in a deep voice.

"There are very few ships that can withstand the storms and waves at sea, and it is not easy to buy, and he should be back today. ”

The cheeky man hurriedly replied.

"Well, we'll wait for him back at the inn when we're full. "The young warrior in brocade clothes sandwiched the dishes.

............ ............ ............

At night, the north wind blows.

In a clearing under a barren mountain outside Minbo City, five horses and more than a dozen carriages were parked next to a lonely tent, all of which were tied to a large wooden stake, and in each carriage were seven or eight people bound by ropes.

Not far away, more than a dozen cloth-clothed warriors were eating dry food around a bonfire.

"Brother Jin, you won't even be allowed to buy wine to drink along the way, you're too careful!"

A short warrior looked at the rugged-looking warrior with a complaining look.

"Mavericks, we are responsible for escorting this large number of people to be sold to pirates, can we be careless along the way? When I go back, I will invite you to drink at Fu Ji Restaurant for three days and three nights!"

The rugged warrior promised.

"Really? That's not cheap. ”

The short warrior was shocked.

"Haha! How have I ever broken my promise?"

The rugged warrior smiled heartily.

"Brother Jin, you're so interesting!" The short warrior is overjoyed.

"Long live Brother Jin!"

"Brother Jin, we are happy with you!"

"I'll just say it! Follow Brother Jin right!"

............

The other warriors were also overjoyed and complimented together.

"Hehe! they're all brothers, why are you talking about this!"

The rugged warrior was very happy to hear the compliments of his subordinates, and then assigned the task: "Tonight, Ding San and Long Si will keep vigil, everyone will eat and rest quickly, and we will be in a hurry tomorrow." Ding San, wait a minute, you go and feed the people in the carriage, each with a mouthful of water and a mouthful of dry food. ”

"Yes!"

The other warriors replied.

"Okay, everyone, use it slowly, I'll go to sleep first!" Jin Li finished and walked into the tent.

In a carriage, three men and four women were talking in whispers.

"Damn the bandits, tie up Young Master Ben up the mountain, and take him to be sold as a slave!" A big fat man said with a resentful look.

"It's useless to scold these immoral bandits! We are tied up here, like fish on someone's chopping board, and we can slaughter as we want!"

A young man dressed as a hunter sighed helplessly.

"Brother Zhang, can we find a chance to escape on the road?"

A plump young woman asked with tears in her eyes.

"No, we can't untie the rope, and even if we do, we won't be able to outrun the bandits' horses!"

An ordinary-looking young man interjected.

"Alas, Brother Wang is right!"

The man dressed as Orion sighed gloomily.

............

Wang Luo gambled that day, and was sold to a thief by the owner of the gambling house, and then came to this carriage.

It didn't take long for Wang Luo to know the details of the rest of the people in the carriage.

The big fat man Wang Gui is the son of a squire in Songjiang City of Qi State, who opened a jade shop in the capital, and was robbed and tied up the mountain by thieves on the way to buy goods.

Zhang Hao, a young man dressed as Orion, was a hunter outside the city of Olive Court City in Qi State, and was kidnapped by the brothel's owner's men to sell to bandits because he offended a local brothel owner.

Li Xiang, a plump woman, is a rural person outside Jiaoling City in Qi State, who went to work in another city, and was coaxed by her fellow villagers to say that there was a free carriage to ride, so she got into this bandit carriage.

The other three young women are all from Qi Guohuan City, named Chen Ling, Mei Chen and Mei Meng, Mei Chen and Mei Meng are twin sisters, or Chen Ling's maids, the daughter of the owner of a silk village in Chen Linghuan City, took Mei Chen and Mei Meng out to play, was put into a coma in an inn, and arrived here when he woke up.

............ ............ ............

A mile away from the barren mountain, more than fifty warriors dressed in black gathered.

"Big brother, let's go and attack the convoy of the bandits in Heishizhai to avenge their killing of the second brother, why do we want to mask our faces?

A lewd man in black asked, puzzled.

"Little knife! Our masked main reason is that when the official army exterminates the Black Stone Village in the future, there will be revenge from the bandits who have slipped through the net. The life of the bandits in Heishizhai was kept because there was the daughter of Chen Xiang, the owner of Hengcheng Silk Village, in the convoy, Chen Xiang was the guard of the current emperor when he was the prince, and he blocked a sword for the emperor back then, was seriously injured and lost all his martial arts, and then returned to his hometown Hengcheng to open a silk village, once Chen Xiang knew that his daughter was kidnapped and sold by the bandits of Heishizhai, would Heishizhai still exist?"

The tall man known as Big Brother patiently explained.

"Hmm!"

The lewd man nodded.

"Everyone wait and do it, if you can keep it alive, you must not hurt the people tied up in the carriage. After the battle, we sent all the living bandits and the people in the carriage to a short distance from the gate of Minbo City, and then rode away, did you hear clearly?"

The tall man ordered.

"Hear me clearly!"

The other black-clothed warriors replied.

"Okay! let's go now!"

After the tall man finished speaking, he strode forward.

Half an hour later, the tall man and the black-clothed warrior touched the outside of the camp of Jin Li's group of bandits.

"Who is it?"

The two night vigil bandits in the camp shouted at the same time.

"Brothers, give it to me!"

The tall man shouted loudly and rushed forward with his sword, followed by the other black-clothed warriors.

The voice of the tall man and the footsteps of the other black-clothed warriors instantly woke everyone in the camp.

"Quick!

As soon as Jin Li opened his sleepy eyes, he shouted at his subordinates to rush out.

"Brother Jin, the black-clothed man who came here is at least twice as many as ours!

The short bandit said in a panic.

"Something is wrong, the owner of the village told me that he has greeted all the masters of the village on this road, how can so many warriors come out!

Jin said loudly: "Brothers, quickly break through and report to the owner of the village, we have been calculated!"

As soon as the bandits heard Jin Li's order, they fled separately.

"I'll meet you!"

The tall man flew the bandits he was fighting and quickly killed Jin Li.

"Moonlight Slash!"

Jin Li instantly took out his sword.

Then, two arc-shaped sword shadows shot out from Jin Li's sword.

"Vortex Triple Strike!"

The tall man leaped forward and unleashed three almost overlapping cold rays.

"Bell! bell!"

Jin Li's sword broke in half, and a mouthful of blood spurted out and flew out.

"Your Excellency is the pinnacle martial artist of the ninth layer of body refining, I am only the seventh layer of body refining, and I am not wronged in defeat!

Jin Li got up in frustration.

"Tie it up!"

The tall man ordered.

"Yes!"

The two black-clothed warriors immediately took out ropes and tied Jin Li.

............

A quarter of an hour of effort, all battles are over.

"Big brother, except for the five bandits who died in battle, the other bandits are tied up here. Ten of our brethren were lightly wounded and two were seriously wounded, but none were killed in battle!"

The lewd man reported.

"Well done!" the tall man was very satisfied with this result, and commanded: "Loosen all the people in the carriage, and leave the twenty uninjured brothers and I to escort them, and you take the rest back first." ”

"Yes!" the lewd man hurriedly carried out.

Soon, the lewd man made arrangements and left with some black-clothed warriors.

The warriors untied Wang Luo and his men and gathered in the open space next to the carriage.

"Thank you for the rescue!"

"Thank you for the rescue!

"Yes, all the heroes, my Li Yi's family has 10,000 acres of fertile land, and I have also opened a gold shop, tell me if I am short of silver!"

............

After everyone loosened their ties, they kept expressing their gratitude to the black-clothed warriors.

"Good! good!"

The tall man stopped everyone with a smile, and then said: "We heroes in the rivers and lakes do good deeds without leaving their names, and we have received everyone's wishes! We will send you to the nearest Minbo City, these robbers are also tied up here, we will escort you and them to the city to report to the officials, everyone should get in the carriage and leave now! After all, it is not safe in the wilderness!"

"Hmm!"

As soon as Wang Luo did it, he set off immediately.

The dark sky was still sparsely studded with a few remnant stars at first, but the carriage disappeared imperceptibly, and as the dawn lifted the light veil of night, a new day was ushered in.

"Haha! Minbo City has arrived!" the tall man looked at the city road in the distance.

Hearing that the destination had arrived, Wang Luo and the people in the carriage poked their heads out one after another.

I saw a city standing in front of me, and there were two rows of armored guards on duty at the gate of the city, and there was an endless stream of people entering and leaving.

"Hello everyone! Our brothers will send everyone here! Everyone go into the city and report to the official! I wish you all a smooth journey!" The tall man led the black-clothed masked warrior away.

"Slow down!"

"Slow down, good man! I wish you all a smooth journey!"

"Walk slowly, a safe journey!"

............

Everyone is grateful to the heroes who selflessly helped them.

"I was sold to thieves for gambling, if I go to report to the official, the owner of the gambling house will pay some silver at most to settle the situation, and he is ruthless, he will definitely trouble me if he spends the money, and if he doesn't do it, he will go to a small life! No, I can't go to the official, and I can't go back to my hometown, I have to go to the city to find a job to earn a bowl of food!"

After the black-clothed masked warrior left, Wang Luo muttered in his heart, so he secretly said goodbye to the others in a carriage: "Brothers, sisters, I have something to go first, I can't go to report to the official with you, I wish you a safe return home!"

"Okay! I wish you a safe home!"

Zhang Hao said sincerely.

The others nodded in understanding.

Everyone got out of the carriage and went into the city, and Wang Luo walked last.

At the entrance of the city gate, everyone said in unison: "Ladies and gentlemen, we were kidnapped by bandits, and a group of unknown heroes rescued us and caught the bandits who kidnapped us!"

"Where's the bandit?"

Two rows of guards alertly drew their swords.

"They were tied to the carriage by that unknown group of heroes!"

The bold Wang Gui replied.

"Hmm! you show us around!"

The guards gave orders to Wang Gui.

Wang Gui lifted the curtains of the two carriages and said, "The thieves are all here!"

"There are more than a dozen, quite a few!"

One of the guards said, looking at it.

"The arrest of the thieves is a matter for the government office, I will report to the captain and send a team of brothers to send you over. ”

Another guard ran towards the city.

Wang Luo took advantage of the guards' attention to the carriage and calmly mixed into the city.
