Chapter 143: Ten Thousand Miles of Opportunity (I)
That night, Ji Chengche quietly left Tiandu City and rushed to the Northern Wilderness Ice Field. The original plan to walk with him was only Wang Rou, and later there was another senior sister of Hai Ming Yuehai.
When Ji Chengche entrusted the Heavenly Holy Hall to Guan Yingwu and Ma Zhu'er, she happened to be there. In fact, these days, Hai Mingyue has been lying in the Tiansheng Hall, saying that Ma Gong'er and his wife are both injured, and she has the responsibility and obligation to help her friends share their worries. She plays with the little potatoes every day, jumps rubber bands, plays hide and seek, and of course, the happiest thing is teaching the children to practice swords. Therefore, no matter how big or small the children are, they all regard her as a great senior sister. When Mr. and Mrs. Ma Zhu'er saw a child king in the hall, they wished that she would stay in the hall for a few more days.
Hearing that Lin Hansi had died tragically in the Northern Wilderness, Lin Yin had urgently returned to the ice field, Hai Mingyue couldn't stay stunned for a moment, and insisted on walking with Ji Chengqing. Senior Sister Hai is chivalrous and must not stand idly by and watch this, not to mention that Lin Yin is still her own life-saving benefactor? So if Ji Chengche refuses to take her, she will go to the Northern Wilderness alone, and it is a big deal to sacrifice herself to feed the tiger without fighting or knowing the fierce beasts on the ice field.
Ji Chengche had no choice but to agree to her, and the three of them rode Xuanshuang to the Northern Wilderness day and night.
Hai Mingyue is so big that it is the first time to ride a dragon, and she has never left Tiandu Peak for thousands of miles, but when she sees the vast sky and wild scenery of the grassland outside the Saiwai, she can't help but feel very surprised.
Unfortunately, this freshness did not last long, as Xuanshuang continued to move north, the surrounding scenery gradually became desolate, the reckless primeval jungle was boundless, and the lonely swamps spread to the end of the sky, and often walked thousands of miles without a trace of people.
When we entered the Northern Wilderness Ice Field, the situation was even worse, and the ice and snow were magnificent at first sight, but soon I could only see a piece of white expanse, and the scenery was monotonous and cold and biting.
Wang Rou is a dragon clan in the Northern Wilderness, and Ji Chengche has also lived in the Northern Wilderness for many years, and has long been accustomed to this environment and climate, but Hai Mingyue quickly got bored and kept asking how far away the destination was.
Wang Rou didn't like to talk in the first place, and Ji Chengche's heart was even more anxious, only Senior Sister Hai rang endlessly like a cuckoo every day, and she was lively all the way.
The days and nights of the Northern Wilderness in May are the best time of the year, the sun hangs high in the sky as if it will never set, and many animals and birds that have been dormant for a whole winter roam around the ice fields to feed. The wind blew on the face, and there was no longer a knife-like pain.
Ji Chengche chose a leeward cedar forest to rest for a while, and Xuanshuang flew to hunt on his own.
Normally, it would not need to eat so urgently, but it has been exerting a lot of time in the past two days and nights, and has to rely on preying on giant beasts to recover its strength.
Ji Chengche lit a bonfire, and Wang Rou hunted a ferret that was common on the ice field, washed and peeled it with ice and snow and skewered it on the shelf for barbecue.
Hai Mingyue saw that Ji Chengche and Wang Rou were busy, but she was standing aside and doing nothing, so she volunteered: "How can I help?"
Ji Chengche said: "Well, you can stay for a while and help eat together." β
The ferret leg meat is very fat, Hai Mingyue took the roasted golden leg meat and put it on the red lips to try to bite it, the meat is fragrant and not greasy at all, teaching people to have a great appetite.
One hind leg quickly fell into her stomach, and Hai Mingyue wiped the greasy hands and praised: "Sister Rou, no matter who marries you in the future, you will definitely be very happy." β
Wang Rou flipped the ferret meat on the grill to another side and said indifferently: "I don't marry." β
"Why?" Hai Mingyue asked in surprise.
Wang Rou ignored her, and was busy tearing off a large piece of front leg meat and handing it to Ji Chengqing.
Hai Mingyue blinked her big black eyes and glanced back and forth between the two, as if she suddenly realized, and changed the topic: "Sister Rou, you can also give me another front leg!"
A ferret weighs thirty or forty pounds, and after skinning and deboning, it is enough for three people to have a good meal.
Ji Chengqing didn't eat much, and Wang Rou also stopped tasting it, but Hai Mingyue was so hungry that her chest was close to her back, and she feasted like a whirlwind and clouds.
At this moment, the sound of hooves rumbled, and a convoy of hundreds of people circled across the ice field, heading here from south to north.
High in the sky, two giant snow eagles spread their wings and soared, patrolling around the convoy to reconnoitre, and found a blazing bonfire, and immediately let out a few long sighs to alarm the convoy.
"Someone is coming, it's a convoy!" Hai Mingyue lifted her spirits, dropped the bones in her hand, stood up, and looked in the direction of the convoy.
Wang Rou asked Ji Chengche in a low voice, "Do you want to avoid it?"
When you meet a convoy in this kind of place, in addition to the merchant traveler from the Central Plains, you are the one who slays the dragon.
"Let's see. Ji Chengche rubbed Xuetuan's hands and washed his face, without the slightest intention of moving the nest.
Wang Rou nodded and threw a few more sticks of firewood into the bonfire.
A team of more than 10 people rushed out of the convoy and drove the snow horse towards the cedar forest.
The little leader of the scouts at the head sat on his horse, held a gun in his right hand and a crossbow in his left hand and pointed a crossbow at Hai Mingyue and said, "Raise your hands!
He used the dragon language, Hai Mingyue couldn't understand it, but when he saw that the other party was holding a crossbow arrow aimed at him, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and raise his fairy sword out of the sheath and said, "You put the crossbow down!"
Neither of the chickens and ducks on either side could understand what the other was saying, but they could also see each other's vigilance and hostility.
When the scout leader saw Hai Mingyue draw his sword, he immediately pulled the crossbow machine, "click" and lightly sounded a strong crossbow ****, stabbing her calf as a warning.
Hai Mingyue was furious, and the sword was picked out, and the sword blade struck lightly on the crossbow arrow.
"Ding!" the bolt was flicked, and it spun around and shot at the scout leader's mount.
The little leader of the scout was caught off guard, and when he heard the snow slump sit down, he fell forward with a wail, and involuntarily flew over the horse's head and fell to the ground.
The more than ten scouts behind were shocked, and they all pulled the crossbow machine and shot at Hai Mingyue.
Hai Mingyue is not afraid, Qinghui fairy sword is like a flower blooming, cold stars, listening to the "ding ding" series of crisp sounds like plum blossoms and bamboo, dozens of crossbow arrows are flying in the sky, it is beautiful.
More than a dozen scouts stepped up to urge their mounts, and Xue Qi galloped with his hooves raised, and in an instant, he killed Hai Mingyue's approach.
Wang Rou suddenly swept her sleeves, and with a "sigh" sound, the firewood burning with flames flew over like a golden snake dancing wildly.
"Sneer, sneerβ" The tongue of fire flickered, and more than a dozen scouts screamed and threw away their swords, guns, crossbows and arrows, covered their faces with their hands, and turned over and fell off their horses in pain.
The people in the convoy shouted angrily when they saw this scene, and a cavalry of more than 100 people rushed towards the cedar forest under the leadership of a young man.
Wang Rou glanced at the emblem on the convoy and said, "It's the convoy of the Dragon Slaying Tribe transporting baggage." β
Ji Chengche nodded, his heart was slightly wider, this baggage convoy at least showed that Mrs. Lin and the Night Fire Tribe were still persistent.
The young man seemed to have a high status, dressed gorgeously and carrying a halberd, galloping under the protection of his own soldiers, and shouted in the demon language common on the mainland: "Who are you?"
This time, Hai Mingyue finally understood, and said coldly: "Who are you?"
Wang Rou looked at the young man with an indifferent expression, and said softly, "It seems to be Heda, the nephew of the dragon slayer." β
Ji Chengche didn't speak, staring at Heda.
At this time, Heda on the opposite side had also seen Ji Chengche and the three of them clearly, the young man in black was young, and the two concubines beside him were all born beautiful and captivating. Thinking about it, there are also a few beautiful women in his tent who have been collected from all over the world to be concubines, but none of them can compare with the two girls in front of him.
Especially the woman in black, with fragrant temples and bright eyes, and her skin as delicate and white as if washed with milk, she is so beautiful and moving when she stands in the ice and snow.
Heda involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva, grabbed the reins and said: "I am Heda, the thousand-horse leader of the Yuanchuan tribe, and the dragon slayer of the Longwei tribe is my uncle!"
"Dragon Slayer's nephew, damn it!" When Hai Mingyue heard this, her heart became more and more disgusted with this guy who was staring at her chest with a pair of colored eyes.
Heda was stunned, and said with a revealing gaze: "The girl knows my uncle's name?"
Hai Mingyue said coquettishly: "I don't know, I still have to settle accounts with him!"
"Hum-" The beauty of the person is like a jade sword like a rainbow, and the Qinghui fairy sword sweeps the sky, and the sharp edge is exposed, and it pierces the center of the eyebrows.
Heda was taken aback, and hurriedly raised the halberd to seal the shelf above, and shouted in his mouth: "Come on, stop this girl!"
The soldiers on both sides hurriedly stepped forward to surround Heda, and more than 100 cavalrymen of the Yuanchuan tribe drew their bows and released arrows, "sneering" The rain of arrows shot towards Hai Mingyue like locusts.
Hai Mingyue swung her sword to sweep away the rain of arrows, and the blue light around her body flickered like clouds and smoke, and the wind and rain did not enter, but it was difficult to move forward again.
Seeing this, Heda hurriedly scolded: "Stupid, who told you to release arrows, catch these two girls for me, I want to live!"
Ji Cheng knew his intentions, and stepped into the ice and snow with a low snort in his nose.
"Bang!" the thick snow in front of him lifted off the ground like a white carpet, and waves of snow poured into the enemy horseman.
More than 100 snow horses were frightened and raised their front hooves, and more than a dozen horses in the front row could not withstand the pressure of the blizzard, and the scene was suddenly chaotic.
Wang Rou also wanted to explode Heda's pair of colored eyes, and the azure eyebrows suddenly stretched, like two green rainbows piercing Heda's eyes through the vast snow haze.
Heda was shocked, and shouted while waving his halberd to parry, "Save me!"
Although he is the commander of the thousand cavalry of the Yuanchuan tribe, he has no military merits, and what he relies on is only his background, and he has hollowed out his body due to excessive wine, and his cultivation is not much higher than that of ordinary cavalry.
Wang Rou made a move out of the air, and the azure eyebrow shadow on the left swept away the halberd effortlessly, and the neck on the right that suddenly wrapped around Heda's neck like a spiritual snake was retracted in front of him.
Heda was like a rooster pinched by the neck, out of breath, and the whole person took off the saddle and danced in the air, calling for his subordinates to be pinched by the neck, and could only scream "whoop".
Suddenly, a dazzling sword light lit up in the snow, and a black-robed Taoist priest flew in the air from the direction of the convoy, shouting: "Don't let go of Heda Gongzi yet!"
"Daoist, interesting!" Wang Rou's lips turned up, and a cold sneer escaped, and the azure eyebrow shadow in his left hand suddenly straightened, and struck at the stabbing fairy sword like a match.
"Hum-" The fairy sword trembled like a stream of autumn water, and the black-robed Taoist priest's body froze slightly, and then shouted loudly to bully Wang Rou, and the strength of his cultivation can be seen from this.
Wang Rou's azure eyebrows bounced back, looking at the black-robed Taoist priest who was rushing towards him without panicking, and his jade arm reached forward and grabbed the placket of Heda's chest.
only listened to the dragon groan of the Yuan Shen Knife in the back tire, and Ji Chengche made a move. (83 Chinese Net.)
