Chapter 19, the road encounters soldiers and bandits

"Empty Mage... Empty... Where is this monk going? Shenhua Kingdom is in the north, and the Big Buddha Temple is obviously in the south. I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out!" Liu San'er said strangely.

The man said, "What is my friend doing when I ask about this?

"I don't know!" Seeing that the man was a little excited, Liu San'er didn't know what he was thinking, and after decisively refusing, he quickly disappeared into the crowd.

The battle outside Jiujiafang continued, but every once in a while someone on both sides wanted to sit down to meditate and pranayama, and put some pills and other things into their mouths, and it was too far away to see clearly at night.

After looking at it for a while, the two sides still couldn't tell the winner, and the Guangyang Kingdom, which had a lot of people, regained some disadvantages, and actually fought with the three old men of Jiujiafang. Liu San'er also lost his patience and went down the city wall to the rented courtyard. No one else had seen a battle between cultivators, but he had seen it early in the morning, and had experienced it himself several times recently, and although he was lucky enough to escape death each time, he was even more afraid of death because of it. The scene where someone has a rotten stomach after a sword, and I feel chilled every time I think about it. But when he thought of the Nameless Sword Spectrum, there seemed to be another force in his heart suppressing his fear of death, telling him that he should kill people, and that he killed all the people who should be killed. What is the iron law of the sky, the agreement between cultivators and mortals is nonsense, only by constantly improving their own strength, it is possible to control their own destiny.

There were very few pedestrians on the way back, so Liu San'er quickly returned to the rented courtyard. Yin Tao had already slept, but he was not sleepy because he was too hungry and had just advanced, and the battle outside the Jiujiafang was not sleepy, so he walked around the small courtyard to make sure that no one was watching, so he went to the front hall of the inn to ask for some food.

Somehow, I suddenly lost my previous desire for meat, and only ordered a few light vegetarian dishes and a bowl of white rice, which cost more than two dollars, which was unthinkable before. Sitting near the backyard and gobbling up for a while, I heard a few martial arts people with knives and swords at the adjacent table discussing.

"Have you heard, the south bank of this Cai Kingdom is about to be zoned into Guangyang Kingdom. ”

"I still need to hear about this, there is a fight outside the city, but the winner has not yet been decided. Whether it is drawn in or not is two words, even if it is drawn in, it has a lot to do with us!"

"It's a big deal, not to mention that you can save a lot of money every year, not to mention the messy taxes on road and bridge tolls. ”

"It's true, but can Cai Guo agree?"

"Hey, hey... I can't agree if I want to, I heard that Cai Guo has had a big incident recently!"

"What's the big deal, Sixth Brother?"

"Can't say, can't say!"

"Sixth, I can't say what you just started to do! This Cai Guo... Maybe I'm going to die!"

"What?

"Shhhh ”

"!"

Brothers, don't talk about state affairs, don't talk about state affairs! Regardless of whether the news is true or not, we will definitely be able to get a vote this time, Guangyang Guo won and we worked in Jiujiafang, and if Jiujiafang won it, we worked outside Jiujiafang. Lao Jiu, they are guarding there, and they will come and inform us as soon as there is news..."

I didn't expect that Cai Guo was about to change the sky, and even the people in the rivers and lakes had rumors, coupled with the situation outside, the situation was really getting more and more chaotic, so it was better to hurry up. However, the situation outside Jiujiafang is not clear now, and if you go out rashly, you may be intercepted by the regular army of Guangyang State or the bandits played by the regular army. Liu San'er himself said that the fourth layer of Qi training can already fly for a short distance, and there is no problem in running. But Yin Tao and Shen Chongdao are completely out of order, they are really dragging oil bottles!

"Good news! Good news! Guangyang National Immortal Master is defeated, Guangyang National Immortal Master is defeated!" suddenly a young man with a knife broke into the inn, rushed to the table where he was discussing, sat down, and said loudly out of breath.

When the few people who were discussing heard this, their eyebrows fluttered, and they raised their glasses to drink.

The innkeeper and the guests in the hall are happy, there is no way that the dog is not poor!

Liu San'er couldn't be happy. In the memory of the books he read, in order to reduce the negative impact of the fiasco on the sergeants, the armies of all countries will immediately take revenge for the fiasco, and some countries will try their best to annihilate the enemy army after winning the battle in order to avoid this phenomenon, cut off the enemy's return route, and deliberately leave the enemy's head hanging as a deterrent, etc. But the effect is not obvious, because the bullying between mortals Tsing Yi inspection will not be easy to ask, once the war between countries and countries is approved by the high-level inspection of Tsing Yi in advance, several parties have already estimated what may happen in the war, how can it be easy to stop the war because of fear of retaliation.

In the current situation, the Immortal Master of Guangyang Kingdom was defeated, and the army under his command would be slaughtered by the three elders of Jiujiafang regardless of whether it was a regular army or not. However, although the monks in the late stage of Qi cultivation have obvious advantages in all aspects compared to the middle stage of Qi training, their mana is not so strong that they do not need to be replenished, and they should withdraw after killing people, and they will not keep circling around, unless the Guangyang Kingdom side does not leave.

Eighty percent of the cultivators on the Guangyang State side want to leave, but in order to save morale, they will inevitably indulge and even instruct the army to sweep around Jiujiafang to get back the lost morale, killing can make people crazy, the bloodier the better. This is especially true for groups such as the military. It's not appropriate to rush anymore, Liu San'er made up his mind, safety first, at least to see the movement for a few days. went back and woke up Yin Tao, but he didn't expect to be rejected.

Yin Tao showed a strange expression on his face, which made Liu San'er feel that she had changed a lot in Jiujiafang in the past few days, and as for what had changed, he couldn't tell clearly. Then a short but fierce quarrel broke out between him and Yin Tao, and Yin Tao's stubbornness amazed him.

Liu San'er, who wanted to see the situation in a few days before going on the road, couldn't convince Yin Tao, who insisted on leaving immediately, she was fascinated and even asked to leave overnight.

Liu San'er tried his best to explain to her the possible risks in the future, but Yin Tao couldn't listen to a word. Maybe in her heart, after the defeat of her mother's country, she must have fled like her, how could she turn around and sweep around? Moreover, she is also a soldier of her mother's country, and her mother's Yin family still has a little face in Guangyang country, and the road should be smooth, but the one who is threatened is Liu San'er, who is horny in his eyes.

If Yin Tao does not retreat, only Liu San'er will compromise.

After preparing enough food and water, Liu San'er took advantage of the night to set off and ran out of Jiujiafang along the avenue.

There was nothing to do all night, and at dawn, Liu San'er found a place with grass on the flat ground, rested for a while, and set off again.

The horse had been running all night, showing signs of fatigue and not walking fast.

Liu San'er didn't rush, and he didn't encounter the regular army of Guangyang Country or bandits dressed as regular soldiers along the way, which made him less vigilant a lot, maybe he really guessed wrong, those people have now evacuated this area.

"Uncle Wang!"

Shen Chongdao, who couldn't stop the little boy, got out of the carriage and lay down beside Liu San'er: "Why can't anyone see anyone on the road?"

"I don't know," Liu San'er smiled and said, "Maybe there are monsters!"

"Monster?" The little boy immediately became interested: "What is it like, it has a lot of hands and feet, and does it have a big mouth?"

"I haven't seen it either, but they're usually fierce. Liu San'er smiled: "Even the bad guys will be scared when they see it." ”

"The bad guys are scared when they see it... Then when I grow up, I want to catch a monster and fight the bad guys!" Shen Chongdao turned over and sat up: "Let it protect my mother and prevent people from bullying." ”

"Let the monster protect your mother?" Liu San'er was stunned: "What about you?"

"I want to find immortals and ask, my father used to say that I was an immortal, and I was different from others. When the little boy said this, he looked serious: "And my father also said that he knows some immortal masters who can fly in the sky, and when the time comes, he will ask the immortal master to accept me as an apprentice, and I will definitely become an immortal in the future!"

"Okay!" Liu San'er said with a smile, but he was bitter in his heart: "Then did your father say where to find the immortal master?

This question obviously stopped the boy, scratching his ears and cheeks for a while, looking a little shy: "I can't remember, I have to ask my mother!"

Seeing the boy enter the carriage, Liu San'er finally breathed a sigh of relief, the topic just now was really heavy, and he reluctantly stood up and stretched a little. Looking ahead, there is a group of people dressed in basically uniform clothes, armed with swords, guns and forks, or riding horses or walking.

"Madam, be careful, you're in trouble!" Liu San'er's heart sank and whispered into the carriage. Pulling out the carriage and avoiding it, the idea was immediately rejected, and the horse was exhausted from running all night and half a day's journey. The other party can easily catch up. Showing his identity as an immortal, he is now able to fly. But this time when he walked down the mountain, he realized more deeply that ordinary people are not as afraid of cultivators as they imagined, and rashly revealing the identity of cultivators may be able to scare off the other party, but it is also possible for the other party to take crazy revenge on him because of the three old men of Jiujiafang.

"Who is it, what should we do?" Yin Tao panicked.

"Madam, whatever happens, hold your breath and take care of your son. Don't speak, leave everything to me!" There is no other way, Liu San can be regarded as a free man.

"Okay!" Yin Tao's voice was obviously not confident. She now began to regret that she had not listened to her husband, but it was too late.

The two sides soon closed the distance, and there was a group of broken sergeants, one hundred and seventy or eighty men, half on horseback and half on foot. What is slightly reassuring is that almost all the horsemen on horseback are not lightly injured, and the road cannot be walked, that is to say, sixty or seventy people have no combat effectiveness. Many of them were injured when they walked, but they were relatively light and did not hinder walking, and their combat effectiveness was still very strong overall, at least for ordinary people.

I hope they don't come over, Liu San'er thought secretly. As he got closer and closer, he heard that one of the sergeants said indignantly: "Big brother, why did you release those people who pretended to be us to rob just now..."

The leading officer on horseback was not too seriously injured, but his head was wrapped in a bloody cloth, which should be the head of this group of men and horses, and his subordinates who did not answer the question, but gestured and ordered: "Surround!"

For a time, some of the sergeants who were walking rushed up to the carriage at a distance of ten paces, and some of them on horseback actually formed a second encirclement at about thirty paces, and most of them held hard crossbows in their hands.

From the indifference and orderly movements in the eyes of these people, Liu San'er felt that although they were not in their heyday, they still had combat effectiveness that could not be ignored.

"Master Jun, is there something wrong?" Liu San jumped out of the carriage with a frightened look. In the face of the crushing of the number of people, he said that even if he used the two magic weapons he had just refined and the flying needle on the folding fan to deal with so many people at once, even if the sword technique of the Nameless Sword Spectrum was counted, it was the same. In the event of a fight, his only option is to run away, and alone. After all, he didn't dare to put the treasure on the sergeant who was afraid of the immortal master, so he still dealt with it as an ordinary person.

After reading a lot of books and hearing about them recently, he knew that there was no very obvious gap between the combat power of low-level cultivators and ordinary people that could not be crossed.

Challenging a team of well-trained soldiers head-on on flat ground, in the impact of arrows raining down and swords and guns like a forest, even if he is like Tuobaying, I am afraid that he will not be able to resist for long, unless he brings a vote of purple-clothed subordinates.

But from another angle, if these soldiers have the courage to face a cultivator in the streets and alleys, as long as they are cultivators who have cultivated above the middle stage of Qi cultivation, they can use the long-range attack advantage of magic weapons to solve and destroy them. After all, a single soldier was vulnerable to any cultivator above the middle stage of Qi cultivation.

The leading officer drove his horse to Liu San'er's five steps: "We are not officers and soldiers now, we are bandits!"

it!

Do you say that?

But whether it is an officer or a bandit, a catastrophe is indispensable. Liu San'er took a deep breath, not knowing how big the other party's appetite was, but in his heart, he still hoped to save the lives of Yin Tao's mother and son first. If the other party really wants to kill them all, he can only fight to the death.

"Let's go, we have requisitioned everything else!" the leading officer waved his whip and said, "Tell the people in the car to come down now!"

"Master Jun! In the car are women and children, and they can't walk without a carriage, so let's make it convenient!" Liu San'er had a bad heart, but he still hoped that the leading officer would have a little conscience.

Syllable!

The leading officer whipped Liu San on the left shoulder, and immediately beat his clothes to pieces.

"Ahh He had already injured his left shoulder, and it hurt to the bone.

"I don't understand, do you?" the leading officer shouted with a whip: "Tell the people in the car to get down!"

Liu San'er bit her lower lip in pain and stared at him without saying a word. His hand involuntarily touched the storage bag in his arms.

Seeing this, the leading officer thought that Liu San was going to ask for something like broken silver, so he raised his whip and wanted to do it again. So that the coachman knows that he is not called Hanako, and the three walnuts and dates can be sent away.

"Xiao Jiang, what are you bothering with a coachman!" A middle-aged officer rode over from behind: "Go up a few people and carry out all the people and things in the carriage." ”

"Yes!" several soldiers immediately jumped into the carriage.

Liu San'er's heart was cold, what a temptation for a woman and a beautiful young woman would be for a group of hungry soldiers!

"Ah, what are you doing! My daughter of Yin Tianzheng of Guangyang Kingdom, you dare!" Yin Tao screamed and reported the name of his mother's family.
