Chapter 1 The Road Blockers
On the side of a jungle path in the northern part of the Yan Kingdom, there were five men in coarse linen clothes, staring intently at the direction of the road. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Soon, a lean man came running quickly. Seeing this, a strong man with a meaty face among the five people hurriedly asked, "How is it, have you seen the situation of the other party clearly, and how many people are there?"
"Look...... I saw the ...... clearly," the thin man panted, "It's not a caravan coming this time, it should be an ordinary passerby." Including the grooms, there are only two grown men, and the rest are only five children!"
The strong man was overjoyed when he heard this, but soon hesitated again: "It's a little wrong, such a little person, they dare to rush on the road? Among them, there won't be any cultivators, right?"
The thin man shook his head: "Boss, I don't think so, if you are really a cultivator, how can you still sit in such a simple carriage? Moreover, even if the other party has a cultivator, but boss, you are also a cultivator, and you are afraid that the other party will not succeed?"
When the rest of the people heard this, they echoed one after another: "Yes, yes, boss, you have cultivated in the martial arts before, how can you be afraid of these people." After saying that, they couldn't help but touch their stomachs again: "Boss, if we don't succeed this time, we will starve to death." β
A trace of unbearability flashed in the strong man's eyes, and finally he sighed lightly and made a decision: "Okay, they are our next target." Although they don't look like rich people, at least they have to let the brothers have a full meal. Everyone goes and gets ready, and once the other person shows up, it's up to me to act. β
"Yes!"
The rest of the people excitedly agreed, and they dispersed, hiding behind the trees in the jungle, just waiting for the other party to appear.
The strong man at the head also squatted down, quietly stretched out his head, and looked at the front of the path. Sure enough, in less than half a pillar of incense, a simple carriage with a steady speed slowly drove slowly from a distance.
On the surface, I could only see a horseman driving, and the strong man looked around, but he didn't see anyone else following behind, and most of his hanging heart fell. Look at this, they can finally open today!
Gradually, the carriage drove closer and closer, and the strong man clenched the big knife in his hand violently, and pounced like a tiger descending from a mountain, blocking straight in front of the carriage.
Before the horseman could react, the strong man immediately let out a loud shout, and his whole body was released, which startled the horse to neigh, and he no longer dared to move forward.
"I opened this road, I planted this tree, if you want to pass from here, leave to buy road money!"
As soon as these words came out, the brother who was hiding next to him suddenly became energetic, and he only felt that these words were full of momentum, which made people listen to a kind of deterrent. At the same time, they hurriedly raised their weapons and jumped out from the rear of the carriage, completely enclosing the carriage.
The strong man pretended to be vicious and glared fiercely at the groom in the car. He asked himself that his cultivation was good, although he was vulnerable in front of those strong people, but for these ordinary people, it was easy to scare the other party.
But who knows, as if the horseman didn't understand the situation in front of him at all, he rolled his eyes impatiently and shook the horsewhip in his hand: "Hurry up and go, don't get in the way, I don't have time to delay time with you, we are still in a hurry." β
What the?
When the strong man heard this, he was immediately furious, they are robbers and thieves, how could they have been ignored so much, it is simply unbearable!
"Okay, you little groom, dare to talk to your robber grandfather like this, and don't want to live. As he spoke, the strong man drew his knife sharply, and with a random slash, he cut a huge rock on the side of the road in half. "See, dare to talk nonsense, it's like this stone. β
The strong man sneered in his heart, to deal with this kind of person, if you don't show some means, the other party will not know how powerful you are. That's why he prepared a stone in advance, and it was at such times that it served as a deterrent.
But he never expected that when the groom saw this, his face still did not change, and his impatience became more and more intense.
The strong man is also a person who practices martial arts, and if he doesn't have a little blood, what kind of martial arts do he practice? The contempt for the groom three or four times made his anger rise to the limit, and he immediately shouted: "Bastard, I don't think you all want to die." Brothers, do it for me, none of these people can let go!"
"Wait!" Seeing that these people were about to make a move, the groom finally became anxious. He turned his head and said respectfully into the carriage, "My lord, you see...... I'm sorry that these guys are so stubborn that I'm going to have to trouble you again. β
A vigorous man's voice came from inside the car: "It's okay, it's just a trivial matter, and it won't be delayed for long." After that, he turned to say: "Xuan'er, your senior brothers and sisters have already made a move before, so let you go this time." Remember, you have to pay attention to your shots, and remember not to hurt people, understand?"
"The disciple understands. β
Soon, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy stepped forward and jumped lightly onto the ground in front of the carriage.
When the strong man saw it, the expression on his face was very strange, just because the other party actually sent such a child, who was not as tall as his chest. Moving his gaze upward, he suddenly noticed the strangeness of this young man, only to see that the other party had long silver-white hair, and his pupils were also extremely special sky blue.
"You, you, you, you are ......"
The silver-haired young man showed a hearty smile and clenched his fists slightly: "Hello, my name is Yun Xuan, Yun of Yun, Xuanyuan of Xuan, please advise." β
"Oh, please give me a lot of advice, I'm ......" subconsciously, the strong man also wanted to return the salute with his fists, but he quickly reacted: "While playing, who cares what your little kid is called, I want to ask, looking at your appearance, it should be a member of the Wu Clan, right?"
Yun Xuan nodded, and said with a slight surprise: "It should be, but I don't know very well." β
Hearing his words, the strong man's face suddenly became murderous: "Wow, originally I was only seeking wealth and didn't want to kill myself, but I didn't expect to be bumped into a group of Wu people by me! It just so happens that I hate the Wu clan the most in my life, don't let any of you get out alive today, brothers, kill them all for me!"
As soon as the words fell, the strong man couldn't hold it anymore, and rushed straight towards Yun Xuan with his knife. This act frightened his other accomplices, who had originally planned to get some money and a few good meals, but never said anything about killing.
You must know that in the criminal law of Yanguo, the most you can do to grab some money is to be imprisoned for a period of time, but once you kill someone, you will definitely be wanted by the whole country, and you can only flee the world from now on.
As soon as they hesitated, the strong man had already rushed to Yun Xuan's side, raising his knife to cut it down. It can be seen that a burst of golden light emanates from the big knife in his hand, and he is obviously also a cultivator.
Of course, Yun Xuan also noticed this, pinched the trick with one hand, and there were words in his mouth for a while. Suddenly, a faint curtain of water emerged, covering him and completely blocking the strong man's broadsword.
What'sβWhat is this?
The big man was shocked, he felt as if his big knife was cut into a ball of cotton, so soft that he couldn't chop it at all. But when he wanted to draw the knife, this water curtain was like a magnet, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull it out.
No, this man is not simple, could it be that this young witch clan is actually a god worshipper? Yes, it must be so, otherwise how could he use such a strange witchcraft!
In his heart, he was no longer attached to the weapon, and as soon as his hand was loosened, he was about to retreat. But as soon as he stepped under his feet, he suddenly felt that his center of gravity was unstable, and he fell to the ground with a pop. When he looked down, he found that at some point there was a patch of ice beneath his feet, so that he could not stand.
Seeing this, Yun Xuan smiled, and threw aside the big knife in the water curtain with one hand. At the same time, his hands pressed down, and the layer of water curtain fell from above like a quilt, covering the strong man tightly.
Thorn stab, stab, stab......
With a crisp sound, the water froze when it was cold, and in the blink of an eye, the strong man was completely encased in the ice. It can be seen that the strong man is constantly struggling in the ice, but he can't destroy the solid ice surface.
Although Yun Xuan didn't kill anyone, the other accomplices of the strong man were already stupid by the scene in front of them. They were just a group of ordinary people, who had ever seen such a strange spell, and immediately screamed, regardless of their boss, turned their heads and wanted to run away.
Yun Xuan would let them get their way, slapped the ground with both hands, and a cold air came out, and in an instant, a thick layer of ice formed under the feet of these accomplices, freezing their calves inside.
"That's it, call it a day!" Yun Xuan clapped his hands with a relaxed face: "Master, I've already caught them, what should I do next?"
At this moment, the curtain of the carriage was opened again, and a middle-aged man with a face like a crown of jade walked out, followed by two men and two women, both fifteen or sixteen years old.
Seeing this, the horseman bowed down respectfully, and said, "Lord Lu, you have also seen that we have encountered several groups of robbers along the way. I don't know how the county magistrates here manage it, but they let these robbers run rampant, and they dare to block the road and rob in broad daylight. β
When Lu Fang heard this, he said with a little curiosity: "Oh, you mean to say that this was not the case here before?"
"It's natural, although I haven't walked this path for more than a month, but before that it was very peaceful, and there were no accidents at all. The groom said with great certainty.
While Lu Fang was chatting with the horseman, the silver-haired young man Yun Xuan walked around the bandit accomplices with a curious expression, looking left and right, only looking at the bottom of those accomplices' hearts, for fear that the witch boy would freeze them into ice sculptures.
If they were given a chance to choose again, they would rather starve to death than provoke this carriage again!
However, Yun Xuan's actions attracted the attention of a girl, and with a light jump, he came to his side and asked curiously: "Xiao Xuan, what's wrong with you, it's just a bunch of villains, what's so good-looking, just hand it over to the county magistrate in a while!"
