Chapter Twenty-Seven: Intercepting the Holy Medicine

In the evening of early spring, there is a light breeze blowing, which makes people feel the slightest coolness, and the streets of Jingling City are still full of people and traffic, and they are as lively as usual, and there is no trace of abnormality. At this time, the sky was burning with fire and clouds, printing the sky red, under the gorgeous sky, Jingling City appeared more prosperous, out of the Chunjiang Building, Yun Xiu and the two of them were wandering on the street, not seeing half of the urgency, and slowly walked towards the outside of the city.

Outside the city of Jingling, a horse Pingchuan, standing under the city gate, can only faintly see the outline of the mountain peaks in the distance, an official road through Pingchuan, zigzag to the distance, both sides of the official road are just spit out the grass and wild flowers, a scene full of spring. It is rumored that this was a battlefield, buried the bones of thousands of people, and it was also the most important battle for the establishment of the Great Qin Empire, after the establishment of the empire, in order to pay tribute to the dead warriors, the Great Qin Empire did not open up the wasteland, but preserved it as it was, but after the passage of time, the land nourished by countless blood has now become extremely fertile, the grass is green, the wildflowers are vibrant, and the spring is full of joy.

And this is the only place to go back to Jingling City, those who want to snatch the scorching sun ginseng warriors wander on the grass in twos and threes, talking and laughing, not seeing a trace of abnormality, and restraining their own breath, just like ordinary people, people who don't understand the reason will think that they are stepping on the spring to enjoy the flowers, if you look carefully, you will be able to find the slightest unusual, everyone's eyes look at the official road from time to time, but it is well hidden.

Although it is adjacent to Jingling City, it belongs to the foot of the imperial city, but it is not as restricted everywhere as in the city, and it has not become a worry about catching turtles in the urn, even if the royal army arrives, if you want to wipe everyone out, it will cost countless troops, even if the royal family of the Great Qin Empire is willing to make such a big effort, here is a flat river, it is clear at a glance, so many soldiers will definitely be able to arouse the vigilance of the warriors, and if you want to surround it, it still takes a certain amount of time, which does not pose much threat to the warriors.

Most of the warriors have deep strength, not to mention one enemy hundred, one enemy ten is not a problem, it is easy to break through in the case of vigilance, so the warriors on both sides of the official road did not put too much of the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire in their eyes, as long as they quickly captured the Lieyang ginseng, and then fled, Kyushu is wide, even if the Great Qin Empire is against the sky, it is extremely difficult to find it from the vast sea of people.

The sunset sinks in the west, scattering the last brilliance, the fire clouds on the horizon burn red, as if the blood has stained the general, particularly dazzling, the sound of horses' hooves came from the official road in the distance, looking for the sound, gradually, a team of people and horses appeared in sight, about 100 people, riding on the horses, speeding towards Jingling City. When they got closer, they found that everyone had a tired look on their faces, and they had obviously gone through a long journey, and now they saw Jingling City in sight, and everyone had a relieved look on their faces, as expected, this was the team escorting the return of the Lieyang Ginseng.

Seeing the team returning, the warriors who were wandering on both sides of the official road slowly gathered around the team, stopping the pace of the team and preventing the team from returning to Jingling City, wanting to stop the holy medicine here.

The leader of the team escorting the Lieyang ginseng is a middle-aged man, about forty years old, a suit of armor and wisdom, a face like a knife, extremely resolute, although after a long journey, his expression is a little tired, but he can't stop the sharp light that leaks from time to time in his eyes, his eyes sweep at will, as if he was targeted by a poisonous snake, which makes people involuntarily feel fear, obviously this leader is the person who walked out of the sea of blood from the border corpse mountain, and his cultivation is not low.

In the middle of the team, a carriage drove slowly, like the stars and the moon in the middle, as expected, there must be a scorching sun ginseng in the carriage, seeing that the way was blocked, all the soldiers leaked a panic in their eyes, and a few people involuntarily looked at the carriage in the middle, obviously very concerned about the things in the carriage, seeing this, those warriors who wanted to intercept the holy medicine already knew in their hearts.

"Who are you waiting for?" said the leader, and the essence appeared in his eyes, like a sharp sword, striking directly into the heart, so that people did not dare to look him directly into the eyes.

"Don't you understand what we are doing? If you know each other, you will hand over the scorching sun ginseng soon, so as not to make a big move and hurt the peace. A warrior said, with a malicious look on his face.

"The Burning Sun Ginseng is owned by the royal family of the Great Qin Empire, it is the property of the royal family, at the foot of the imperial city, where are you waiting for such a blatant snatching of the holy medicine, where is the imperial authority of the Great Qin Empire?" the leader said, not angry and arrogant, and his body was imposing.

"What does the imperial authority of the Great Qin Empire have to do with me, we are only here for the holy medicine, if the holy medicine does not enter the palace, it will not be owned by the royal family, such a thing against the sky, the virtuous live in it, hurry up and hand over the holy medicine, those who have it are useless to us." A warrior said.

"Bold, at the foot of the Imperial City, as a member of the Great Qin Empire, he actually despises the imperial authority so much. The leader laughed angrily, and a cold murderous intent appeared on his face. As a member of the Great Qin Empire, the Great Qin Empire is everyone's faith, and now for the sake of a holy medicine, abandoning faith and ignoring it is a great rebellion and should be killed.

"Don't use the imperial authority to pressure us, we are only here for the scorching sun ginseng, hand over the holy medicine, turn the war into jade silk, if you don't pay, we can only take it by force, and then I am afraid that there will be a river of blood again, a vicious battle. A warrior said, looking at the carriage with a salivating expression in his eyes.

"Lieyang ginseng is a rare holy medicine for thousands of years, not any cat or dog can get into it, just because you can't wait for the martial artist, you want me to hand over the holy medicine, it's really a fool's dream, I can't help myself. "The murderous intent in the eyes of the leader is like substance, despising the emperor's authority and vainly trying to snatch the holy medicine, any of which can be condemned to death.

"Since you don't know what's wrong, don't blame me for being rude. A warrior said, taking the lead and sweeping towards the carriage at an extremely fast speed.

"Look for death. The leader shouted angrily, and with a wave of the long sword in his hand, he couldn't see how to move, so he cut the man into two pieces, and fell under the horse, and the blood splattered three feet, and it was extremely bloody.

"Whoever dares to snatch the holy medicine, this is the end. In the face of such a bloody scene, the leader's eyes did not change at all, as if it was not a life that was killed.

"You are so cruel. A warrior said, his eyes leaked with fear, his body kept retreating, hiding in the middle of many warriors, and said: "I actually killed people in public, and regarded life as ants, so what are I waiting for, go up together, kill them, and seize the sun ginseng." ”

As soon as this person's words fell, many warriors drew their weapons in their hands and killed the team escorting the Lieyang Ginseng, most of the warriors had already been confused, although their lives were precious, but at this moment in front of a holy medicine, they were obviously much smaller, and there were also people who were mixed in the crowd, wanting to fish in troubled waters and take away the Lieyang Ginseng while they were in chaos.

"The power of the leader is extremely profound, if I am not mistaken, his strength should be stronger than you and me, reaching the peak of the late stage of the Transformation Realm, or even stronger, just with this group of rabble, I want to grab the scorching sun ginseng, I really don't know whether to live or die. Yun Xiu and the two stood at the city gate from a distance, looking at the scene in the field, and a sneer leaked from the face of the Fasheng monk.

Monk Fasheng is right, although there are many warriors who want to snatch the Burning Sun Ginseng here, their strength is worse than that of the team escorting the holy medicine, and it is simply a suicide to snatch the Burning Sun Ginseng, not to mention the leaders who cultivate to the depths, even if the remaining disciplined soldiers can defeat them, it is not that the warriors who snatched the Burning Sun Ginseng do not have a profound existence, but those who have cultivated to the advanced level will not rush forward so stupidly, but to choose the time, so those warriors who start to rush up will only be cannon fodder in the end.

"Despise the emperor's authority and openly rob the holy medicine, the crime is unforgivable, and there is no forgiveness for killing. "The leader is mighty and domineering, drinking heavily, and taking the lead in rushing into the warriors, the long sword in his hand is flying, like killing chickens and sheep, like entering a no-man's land, opening and closing, and killing the warriors are defeated and retreated.

The soldiers behind him heard the words of the leader, the long sword in his hand was unsheathed, and he joined the battle, with the leadership of the leader, extremely brave, in less than half an hour, the battle was over, the corpses of the warriors on the ground were horizontal, drenched in blood, and they were miserable, the warriors who snatched the holy medicine suffered heavy losses, but the team escorting the holy medicine did not have a few casualties, this is the gap, cannon fodder is just cannon fodder after all.

"Who else?" the leader sat on a fiery horse, his sword dripping with blood, unusually brave and mighty.
