Chapter 3 Travel
"Yuan Fei, why is he here? Come in. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" came from the sound of the vicissitudes of life in the house.
Hearing this, Yuan Fei took a few steps forward and gently pushed open the door and walked in, while Fu Bao returned to the front yard.
However, he did not dare to doze off any longer, and carried a lantern in his hand and hummed a little song to patrol the house.
As soon as Yuan Fei closed the door, Master Ji and Fifth Young Master Ji Peng walked out of the inner room one after another.
"Yuan Fei, you came here late at night, I don't know what is going on?" Master Ji sat casually on a Taishi chair and asked with a little doubt.
"That's the case, the family master has been in poor health for the past two days, and he is worried that he will not be able to escort the fifth young master to the Xianmen, so he specially sent a boy to escort him. After Yuan Fei gave a salute, he said with a flat expression.
"Oh, Master Fu's skills are exquisite, how could he suddenly fall seriously ill, have you seen Lang Zhong, is it serious?" Master Ji was taken aback when he heard this, and asked nervously.
Although this discipline officer is a literati, he also knows that Fu Tianlin's martial arts are profound, and with his protection, Ji Peng's safety can be worry-free.
And Yuan Fei is only Fu Tianlin's apprentice, and the two cannot be compared. Besides, from beginning to end, Master Ji had never seen Yuan Fei show any martial arts, so naturally he had no trust at all.
"Master Ji don't worry, Master, he has an old illness in his early years, as long as he recuperates for a while, but this escort task will definitely not be able to take over. Yuan Fei turned his mind around.
"Hiss......" As soon as Master Ji heard this, his eyebrows immediately furrowed, as if he had difficulty making a choice.
"Master Ji rest assured, although the kid is still young, he also has the master's five successes. And before leaving, the master handed over the 'Qingguang Sword' he was carrying to the kid, and he would definitely be able to keep the fifth young master safe. Yuan Fei saw that the inspector was suspicious, and hurriedly reassured.
"Qingguang Sword!" Master Ji's eyes lit up, and he saw the cyan long sword tied to Yuan Fei's back, and finally believed what Yuan Fei said.
He has known Fu Tianlin for many years, so he naturally recognizes the Qingguang Sword. As far as he knew, Fu Tianlin regarded the Qingguang Sword as a treasure, and he had never left him for so many years.
Today, Fu Tianlin actually handed over the blade to Yuan Fei, which shows that he has great trust in this apprentice.
Yuan Fei saw that the discipline officer was still undecided, and suddenly glanced at the fifth young master Ji Peng.
"Dad, the child has seen Brother Yuan practice, and his martial arts are indeed extraordinary. Ji Peng nodded with a smile and said to the discipline officer.
"Okay, since Master Fu is unwell, then there is a trip for Lao Xian's nephew. However, the virtuous nephew must ensure that Peng'er is sent to the mountain gate safe and sound. After the discipline officer sighed, he finally agreed, and said with a solemn face.
"The kid must do his best. Yuan Fei was overjoyed in his heart and hugged his fists.
"Okay, you go back first, and wait until tomorrow morning to go on the road with Peng'er. After nodding with satisfaction, the discipline officer waved his hand.
"Master Ji, on the orders of the family teacher, this trip needs to leave late at night. However, Yuan Fei did not leave, but gave up again.
"Why is that?" said the disfellowshipped officer.
"Master Ji didn't know that the fact that the Fifth Young Master was given the Immortal Gate Identity Token by the Immortal Master had long been rumored, and the Fifth Young Master's itinerary was not a secret, and there would definitely be people with ill intentions to intercept him halfway. So in order to reduce some trouble, it is best to start early. Yuan Fei truthfully said what he thought in his heart.
"The virtuous nephew is really thoughtful. Well, then you can set off at once. The discipline officer suddenly came over, secretly blaming himself for being too flamboyant, but after glancing at his son, he sighed reluctantly.
Immediately, the discipline officer ordered the housekeeper to hand over some of the belongings that had been packed a long time ago to Ji Peng.
Originally, the discipline officer had to prepare horses for the two, but Yuan Fei refused on the grounds that it was easy to find out.
Then Yuan Fei didn't say a word, grabbed Ji Peng under his armpit, and jumped out of the courtyard from the back door with light body skills, and then disappeared into the night silently like a raccoon.
The discipline officer stood in the courtyard for a long time before he returned to the house with tears in his eyes under the support of the housekeeper.
At the same time, ten miles away from Fenglei Town, in a forest on the side of the road, the figures flickered, and when they took a closer look through the moonlight, there were more than a dozen black-clothed people hidden.
Each of these black-clothed men held swords in their hands, and their eyes stared at the empty avenue without moving.
"Big brother, do you think the Ji family will really leave in the middle of the night?" a one-eyed man suddenly said to the bald man next to him.
"Don't forget, Fu Tianlin, this old guy is in Ji Mansion, with his city mansion, eighty percent will not leave according to the previous itinerary. And even if you guess wrong, there are also our spies near the Ji Mansion, and no matter what the hell they do, they can't escape our ambush. The bald man snorted coldly.
"Although the eldest brother has done a thorough job, this old guy is extremely difficult to deal with, I'm afraid that we will not be his opponents when we go together. The one-eyed man seemed to have heard of Fu Tianlin's name, and he was a little afraid.
"What are you afraid of, even if he has three heads and six arms, but in the chain traps carefully arranged by us, there will definitely be no return. Hehe, and the owner paid 10,000 taels of silver to get that token, so it's worth the risk. The bald man's eyes flashed and he grinned.
"Big brother, this bounty seems to be a lot, but it is too bad compared to the value of the token itself. The one-eyed man narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully.
"What do you mean by that?" the bald man frowned when he heard this.
"Big brother, you think, this token is a certificate to enter the immortal gate, if the eldest brother can use this token to enter the immortal gate, won't he become an immortal master in the future?"
"This ...... That's true, but it is said that cultivating immortal arts requires a spiritual root, and where did the brother get any spiritual root, even if he gets the token, it is useless. The bald man seemed to have this in mind, but said helplessly.
"As the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, and those who cultivate immortals must also need gold and silver, otherwise they won't charge a lot of silver for testing the spiritual root. At that time, as long as the eldest brother dedicates ten thousand taels of silver to the immortal master, even if he really can't cultivate immortal arts, he can get some elixir for longevity. The one-eyed man's only remaining eye shimmered.
"Haha, that's what you say. If you really have this opportunity for your brother, you will never forget your brother. The bald man said with a happy expression.
"Then the little brother thanked the eldest brother first. When the one-eyed man heard this, he quickly clenched his fists and thanked him, but a hint of ridicule flashed in his eyes.
However, although the calculations of the bald man and others were good, they could not be realized at all.
Because Yuan Fei was too familiar with the situation near Wind Thunder Town, he didn't have the idea of taking this big road, but went around in a big circle and passed through the back of the forest unconsciously.
After that, he picked those remote and uninhabited paths, crossed the mountains and mountains, and did not return to the main road until he was far away from the range of Fenglei Town, and after the sky was bright.
At this time, the two of them had already left Fenglei Town for about a hundred miles.
Yuan Fei looked back and saw that it was empty, and no one was following behind, so he let out a sigh.
Then he turned his head to look at Ji Peng who was following behind him, and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Because when he first came out of Ji's Mansion, Ji Peng was still in a brocade robe and looked like a girl, but now he is ragged and gray-faced, like a beggar.
"Brother Yuan, you are still laughing, you are not to blame. Ji Peng glared at Yuan Fei and said angrily.
At this time, Ji Peng changed his previous name to Yuan Fei, and his tone seemed to have a very good relationship with Yuan Fei.
It turned out that Ji Peng and Yuan Fei had been playing together since childhood, and had learned kung fu from Yuan Fei for a few days, but he couldn't bear the hardships of practicing, so he retreated.
But the relationship between the two is very good, otherwise when he heard that Yuan Fei was going to escort him to Xianmen, Ji Peng would not have interceded with Ji Yuanwai.
It's just that these are all carrying elders, so the discipline officer doesn't know about the cats between the two at all.
"I'm doing this for your own good. You're a treasure now, and I don't know how many people want to beat you up for that token. Yuan Fei shrugged his shoulders and put on a helpless expression.
"Hmph, isn't it just a broken token? What's the good thing? If it weren't for the purpose of healing Sister Lingshan's eyes, this son wouldn't have bothered to practice any immortal arts. Ji Peng snorted.
"It turns out that this is why you decided to go to Xianmen. However, Sister Lingshan doesn't seem to have said she likes you, right?" Yuan Fei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then shook his head and smiled.
"It doesn't matter if I don't like it now, when I become an immortal master in the future, and then heal Sister Lingshan's eyes, she will definitely look at me differently. When the time comes, you as a big brother, remember to say some good things to me, otherwise I will suffer so much in vain. After Ji Peng raised his head and said a word, he suddenly smiled at Yuan Fei.
"Ahem, this is nature, who made you my brother and Ling Shan's benefactor? However, it's a bit early to say this now, let's wait until you really have a successful cultivation. The most important thing now is to find the strength of the feet first, only you and I can rush with our feet, and the soles of our feet will not be able to reach the fairy gate if they are worn through. After Yuan Fei coughed dryly, he quickly changed the topic.
"I've been here before, and a few miles further along, there should be a village, and we'll just go there and buy two horses. Ji Peng looked around and looked happy.
As he spoke, they went down the avenue to the front.
After walking three or four miles, there was indeed a village on the side of the road.
After entering the village, Yuan Fei deliberately selected two good horses in the market, and as for the person who paid for it, it was naturally Ji Peng.
After that, the two of them had a full meal, brought some dry food, and fetched two pots of well water, and then set out on horseback in the distance.
After having the mount, the journey of the two naturally accelerated a lot, and in seven or eight days, they ran thousands of miles away.
And along the way, there were no accidents, which made Yuan Fei's heart that had always been hanging finally fall.
