Chapter 68: Race against time to leave the sky and the sea

It's getting dark.

The flow of people passing through the streets of Tianhai City is gradually thinning.

Countless torches were lit on the wall of the East Gate, instantly illuminating the surroundings as if it were day.

"Dada~"

There was a rush of horses' hooves at the end of the street, and in a few breaths a cavalryman had reached the city gates.

"Under the command of the young master, open the city gate quickly, there must be no mistake!"

Holding the reins, the cavalry took out the Dongzhou token from his bosom and held it high.

Seeing this, the commander of the city defense did not dare to delay, and hurriedly ordered the guards under the city gate to open the city gate.

"Squeak Quack~"

The huge and heavy gates slowly opened.

Moments later, the street was filled with the sound of metal rubbing, followed by a torrent of steel.

Tianhai City's elite combat readiness regiment!

Thousands of warriors in black armor are like a giant centipede, pulling up long black lines in the streets, making people feel suffocated.

"Quick, speed up!"

A general on a war horse brandished a spear in his hand, constantly urging the pace of the march.

......

The Lord's Mansion, in the hall.

Xiao Yao and the others had already made the best preparations, and they could leave just waiting for the report from the front.

"Zimang, farewell today, when will we get together again?" Sitting in the first place, Maple Leaf Lin said lightly.

"Don't worry, in case of danger, you will notify the young master to rescue you as soon as possible, and when the time comes, you won't be able to save yourself. Xiao Yao said with a smile.

Sighing, Maple Leaf Forest said helplessly: "If it weren't for my father urging me to go back, I really want to follow you all the way." ”

Hearing this, the city lord sitting below smacked his tongue, and said in his heart, if the little ancestor wants to play, he will go to other places to play, don't come to Tianhai City, my old bones are about to let you torture and fall apart.

"By the way, there is one more thing I want to ask the young master to help with. Xiao Yao clenched his fists and said.

"What's the matter?" Jian raised his eyebrows, and Maple Leaf Lin asked suspiciously.

"After settling them, I will return to Wudang Mountain, if there is news of Wu En, please also ask the young master to send someone to send the news to Wudang Mountain, Zimang is grateful. Xiao Yao said.

"Don't worry, I will never lose my word about what my son promised to my friend. Maple Leaf Forest said.

Just then, a warrior ran in from outside the hall.

"Report to the young master, the combat readiness regiment has cleared the bandits thirty miles to the official road leading to the ancient city of Yan, and is currently stationed in the same place and is on standby. Kneeling on one knee, the warrior said in a deep voice.

Standing up suddenly, Maple Leaf Forest said lightly: "Order the combat readiness regiment to turn from east to north and continue to clear out bandits." ”

"Subordinates obey!" After speaking, the warrior turned and left.

"Zimang, I can only help here, I wish you a smooth journey. Maple Leaf Forest smiled.

"The grace of the young master, Zimang is toothless and unforgettable, farewell!"

Now is the time to race against time, Xiao Yao is not hypocritical, and quickly exits the hall.

......

The silver moon hangs in the sky, and everything is silent.

The two carriages quietly departed from the east gate.

Walking to the official road, Xiao Yao jumped out of the carriage, holding a war halberd wrapped in black cloth in his hand, and watched the movements around him vigilantly.

Zhang Jin and the others did not dare to slack off, and walked dozens of feet ahead to open the way for them in order to deal with emergencies.

After a while, everyone had already walked twenty miles, and only then did they feel a little relieved, as long as they walked more than ten miles, they would be out of the area robbed by the bandits.

"Senior brother, why are my eyelids beating and my heart flustered?" Zhang Jin said.

"Seeing that you're going to a safe area, don't be suspicious. Xiao Yao said unhappily.

Smacking his tongue, Zhang Jin said lightly: "After settling down, I decided not to go back to Wudang Mountain." ”

Frowning, Xiao Yao said suspiciously, "Why?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Zhang Jin said with emotion: "I think it's happier to be with my parents, when the time comes, it's better to marry a wife and have a baby, and the family lives carefree than being scared outside." ”

"This is your dream?" Xiao Yao said disdainfully.

"Well, this is my dream at my fingertips, I am not the material for martial arts training in the first place, and I can't reach the level where my hands are stained with blood, and I can be calm. Zhang Jin grinned.

Hearing this, Xiao Yao was stunned, and suddenly felt that he and his senior brother were walking in the opposite direction, from the moment he killed, he just felt uncomfortable, and did not have a trace of timidity, the process was moving towards calmness, maybe killing people like hemp is his fate.

"The junior brother is tenacious and decisive, and he will definitely become a strong man in the world in the future, don't let a few words ruin my mood. Seeing that Xiao Yao was silent, Zhang Jin hurriedly comforted.

With a dry smile, Xiao Yao said: "The premise of becoming a strong person is to keep making trouble for yourself, otherwise you won't be in the same position as you are today." ”

"Do the right thing for heaven, this is doing good deeds, even if I die, I will support you under the Nine Springs. Zhang Jin encouraged.

"Phew, close the crow's mouth!" Xiao Yao scolded with a smile after glancing fiercely.

Before they knew it, they had walked out thirty miles away.

"Xiao Yao. Pulling the curtain, Zhang Xiaocui shouted in a low voice.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yao asked.

"My mother is not feeling well after a bumpy ride, can she stop and rest?" Zhang Xiaocui said.

Looking at Zhang Xiaocui and Zhang Jin's worried looks, Xiao Yao frowned, looked around, and said, "Come down and rest, but it shouldn't be too long." ”

Zhang Jin nodded and hurriedly helped his mother out of the carriage.

"We're out of the danger zone, what are you worried about?" said Yaozhi.

"I don't know, I have a hunch that it doesn't go so well. Xiao Yao said in a low voice.

At this time, Ling Fei walked over with her younger brother in her arms.

"Brother Zhou said, at this speed, we will be able to rush to the official road leading to Qingyan City at noon tomorrow, and we will be separated at that time. Ling Fei said softly.

"Well, don't worry, I'll ask a friend to escort you back to Qingyan City when you get to the place, after all, Brother Zhou's body can't move yet, so I can't let you drive the carriage back." Xiao Yao smiled.

Blinking her beautiful eyes, Ling Fei's cheeks flushed, and she said softly, "Isn't this too troublesome for you." ”

Stretching, Xiao Yao smiled indifferently and said, "Instead of letting them be good people, it's better for me to take the initiative." ”

"You're getting more and more ghostly, and your skin is getting thicker. Zhang Jin pouted his mouth and interjected.

Shrugging his shoulders, Xiao Yao said noncommittal.

"Rustle~"

At that moment, there was a noise in the grass.

"There's a situation, get in the car!"

Xiao Yao was shocked and hurriedly stopped in front of everyone.

As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen black shadows burst out.

"Hehe, I know that the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, how can I guess correctly. A thin bandit laughed.

"Monkey Er, you kid is really smart, you seem to be a big fish. Another bandit chimed in.

Sniffing the air, the thin bandit smiled and said, "Brothers, I smell a woman, it's really a blessing, haha~"

The bandits laughed on their backs, their eyes blazing.

Listening to the bandits' filthy words, Xiao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that they didn't recognize their identities, although they are still dangerous, but it's better than causing big trouble.

"Can a few big brothers get out of the way?" Xiao Yao said lightly.

"Yes, we're not interested in you, leave the carriage and the women behind, and get out!" said the thin bandit disdainfully.
