51. Return to 6
Tang Di was very worried and worried.
It's been four or five days, and Tang Chong still hasn't heard from him, even the carrier pigeon released a few days ago has never returned.
He frowned and looked out the window, the withered branches outside the inn were dense in front of him, hazy, so that people's eyes could clearly see the pedestrians on the street in the twilight, but he always felt that there was something in the gap, and he couldn't see it really.
Just like the current situation full of strange atmosphere, Tang Di has not walked on the rivers and lakes, on the contrary, his performance is very good, otherwise he would not have been entrusted with an important task by the Tang Sect Human Building.
But no matter how careful and cautious he was, he never felt that anyone was watching or snooping.
During this period, he also deliberately relaxed his vigilance and revealed flaws, such as pretending to be drunk, such as deliberately going to a dark and secluded place, but no one took the bait at all.
It seems that there is no such person at all, everything is imagined by him.
But the more this happened, the more Tang Di felt dangerous. The calmer it is, the more it is a sign of heavy rain.
If he is walking alone, then the best response at this time is to hide in the shadows. But with such a little guy beside him who can only do a third-rate exercise, he can't hide it.
The unknown enemy is in the shadows, and he is in the light.
This made him feel not only passive, but also extremely irritable.
He clutched the strange umbrella in his hand, sat on the brown wooden table with a blank face, raised his eyes and looked at the delicate young man opposite, with a look of you being a pig teammate in his eyes, and said coldly for a long time: "There are still four days away from Red Leaf City." ”
"Well, I know. ”
"From today onwards, we will no longer stay at the inn, we will travel overnight, stay in the next town, and change horses directly!" Tang Di made a decision, he needed to disrupt the rhythm of the unknown enemy hiding in the shadows.
At least force him to show his form!
"When do you want to start?" Xia Ren didn't care, but felt that the master sent by the Tang family in front of him was a little tormented.
"Tonight, the moon is dark and the wind is high, so I will leave before dinner!" Tang Dian said lightly, "I have already wrapped cooked beef and tea jerky and eaten it on the way." ”
Xia Ren glanced at him strangely, and he didn't refute it, he saw the look of this master of the Tang Sect in the world these days, and knew that it was because of Tang Chong's disappearance, and the carrier pigeon did not reply to the toss crazy.
Ten minutes later, the two figures hurriedly got on their horses in the dark.
Although the stars are not visible and the moon is shadowless, the lanterns on the streets of the town still illuminate the surroundings, and the laughter of the restaurants, the whispers of the bridge, and the conversations on the road make the town still maintain the vitality of the day at night.
The two of them were from the back door of the inn, got on the horse directly, and left quietly when there were many people.
From this point of view, Tang Die's calculation is still okay, at least the time point he chose is very unique, and it can even be said to be unexpected.
The wind blows the grass low, the residents are gradually sparse, and the surrounding has become desolate, the sparse forest has come to an end, and the town's stone monument boundary sign is also visible not far away, and the stone tablet is engraved with red words: Luoyang Town.
"Drive!" Tang Stack danced the black-handled horsewhip, taking the lead, wanting to rush out of the town.
Suddenly, the horse seemed to sense something, and one of them stopped abruptly, his hooves raised, and he neighed with a sharp cry of horror.
Tang Dian leaned over, leaned against the horse, hugged the horse's neck with one hand, and gently stroked the horse's back with the palm of the other hand, as if to appease.
His gaze was not panicked, but flashed with a solemn, as if he were facing a great enemy.
The horses under his crotch finally quieted down, but they still cowered back, and a pair of horse eyes looked into the darkness with horror.
Tang Di slowly lowered the whip, he knew that even if he broke this whip now, he would not be able to make the horse under his crotch run again, because it had already scared his guts.
So he clenched the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and looked solemnly into the distance, where the wind blows the grass low.
A bloody and strange aura was rising.
"You... Can you finally help but show up?" his smile was full of evil, even if he knew that the person who could kill Tang Chong must not be an ordinary person, but he was not afraid.
Cowardice before fighting, that is the behavior of rookies in the rivers and lakes.
Even if there is a battle between heroic grandmasters, the former may not have a chance to fight back.
Whether it is victory or defeat, life or death, it is not directly compared with the realm, but you have to try to know.
When I came out this time, I didn't just bring my usual "snake umbrella", but the three or four gadgets in my baggage were all deadly.
Tang Di looked at the delicate young man beside him, and saw that his face still maintained a disapproving expression, as if he didn't realize the current situation at all.
I couldn't help frowning, with a look of rotten wood that could not be carved.
At the same time, he scolded: "You return to Luoyang Town first, if I don't come back in an hour, you go back to Tangmen directly and report the incident during the period." ”
Seeing that Xia Ren still didn't move, he shouted, "Do what I say!"
At this moment, a figure appeared on the other side of the grass.
There was a faint light coming from the town, and his figure was barely visible.
It was a short-haired man who looked like a farmer who had just returned from planting seedlings, wearing short clothes, and even in the dark, he could feel that he was smiling, but his pupils were hidden behind his eyelids, as if he was rejoicing in another year's harvest.
There were long strips of broken metal stuck around his waist at random, and under this light, he didn't even show the slightest cold, like a black stone bar.
As he approached step by step, the horses of the two couldn't help but retreat again and again, as if it was not a human walking on the opposite side, but a demon tiger in the mountains.
"You, who are?" Tang Di asked word by word, his eyes became more and more solemn, and he could feel the strong smell of blood on the man in front of him, almost suffocating the smell of blood.
This is exactly what you need to kill to have!
His right hand was clasped in the place of the "snake umbrella" mechanism, and his left hand had reached into the baggage, and suddenly grasped it on a turquoise metal cylinder, looking like he was facing a great enemy.
"What do you want?" Tang Di sneered.
The peasant-like short-haired man on the opposite side also saw the two of them clearly at this time, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he walked quickly.
"Looking for death!" Tang Die only felt his heart beat faster, as if it was not a person walking on the other side, but a fierce beast that was hunting.
"Hehe..." he smiled coldly, but in fact, he was just trying to suppress the horror in his heart.
Seeing the figure approaching quickly, he didn't hesitate any longer, and took out a turquoise metal cylinder with his left hand like the wind, and in the next second, he only needed to press the mechanism, and countless metal needles with the thickness of turquoise hair would shoot out like a waterfall.
But he suddenly stopped.
Because the peasant-like short-haired man on the opposite side suddenly showed joy and said, "Senior brother!"
