Chapter 43: Night Talk in the Red Pine Forest
Zhuang Lou's work efficiency was very high, and it didn't take long for Ning Yufei and Yu Lianyi to sit in a comfortable carriage and go to Daimyo.
As for the fighting on the street, it still didn't end in the end, and presumably the young man in black wouldn't do anything.
The carriage was about two meters wide and nearly four meters long, and it was very spacious! The two sat on one side, because they were on the horse, and they were tired from the day, and they both fell asleep quickly.
The speed of the carriage is naturally much slower than that of a simple fast horse, but it is no problem to reach the daimyo tonight. The driver was a tall man with a large hat, who could not see his face and did not speak, but drove his car.
At night, there are only natural sounds, and there is no noise of human voices. Night had fallen, and the land was shrouded in darkness, with only the waning moon and a lone star intertwining in the sky.
The red pine forest, which is the only place to pass from Dongchang to Daimyo, is a large road in the middle and tall pine forests on both sides. Once here, it's not far from the Daimyo.
The starlight is sparse, but it also illuminates the outline of everything.
At this time, it was just after the hour, and Ning Yufei had just woken up. He stretched his waist and moved his body, but there was nothing to do, and just as he remembered that he hadn't practiced today, he meditated cross-legged and ran the mental method of the Tiangang Sutra. Suddenly, he felt as if he had been dragged into the starry sky, and the blue 'little fish' in the center of the soul sea of his head swam happily, absorbing the starlight in the sky.
Ning Yufei's soul body was now even more staring, and after playing with Xiao Jing for a while, he retreated and began to concentrate on cultivating internal strength. Recently, when he reached the peak of the Triple Heaven, he felt that he had accumulated a lot, but he could not find a breakthrough, and his practice had encountered a bottleneck.
In the silence of the night, the shadows of the trees are longing. Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves and wheels clashing one after another, shattered the night.
"Herod'......" The long neighing of the horses resounded through the woods.
Ning Yufei, who was meditating, and Yu Lianyi, who was asleep, were both startled. They lifted the curtain in front of them, and saw only the lanterns hanging in front of the car flickering in the night. The car had already stopped, and the man in the hat who was driving the car did not speak, but just held his breath and stared, as if he was on guard against something.
"Keng...... Qiang ......"
The sound of weapons colliding suddenly came from the quiet forest on the left and right, followed by swords entering flesh and screaming, Ning Yufei's sensitive sense of smell smelled a strong smell of blood coming out of the woods, almost making him vomit all the food he had eaten in the afternoon.
"Big brother coachman, what's going on?" Ning Yufei actually just asked casually, just to find something to say, he didn't think that a coachman could know anything, even if this coachman seemed to be quite bold.
The coachman took out a wine gourd out of nowhere, first poured it to himself, and then handed it to Ning Yufei. "There were people inside, it seemed that they were in ambush, and for the sake of safety, they were dealt with, rest assured, it was our men who won. ”
The voice is unusually rich and calm, and people listen to it with undoubted conviction.
Ning Yufei stretched out his hand to take the wine gourd, he had drunk Zhuangyuan Red and Zhu Yeqing just now, he probably understood what the taste of famous wine was in this era, and he was a little interested in this unknown wine, so he immediately drank it everywhere regardless of his appearance.
After drinking, he also said something inexplicable. "Brother coachman, you still have to drive later, drunk driving is not safe, don't drink it, I'll keep this wine for you!" Of course, after this sentence, the coachman snatched the wine gourd back, and didn't give Ning Yufei any time to prepare. This opened Ning Yufei's eyes, it turned out that this coachman was actually a hidden master! No wonder he knew the battle situation outside without even looking at it, he must have felt the breath of his own people's internal force.
Feel?breath?
A flash of inspiration struck.
Ning Yufei seemed to have caught something, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't find any clue.
He felt that he must have thought of the key to breaking through the Four Heavens just now, so he stopped talking to the coachman and went back to the car to work his mind again, while recalling the state just now.
Yu Lianyi was very strange, but she didn't ask, her beautiful eyes staring outside.
"Senior Brother Yu, these people shouldn't have come for us. Yu Lian thought for a long time, but still asked.
"Oh, how can you see it?" the deep voice was not arrogant or impatient, without a trace of fluctuation.
"There are three points. First of all, we have always had good relations with all parties, and no one would provoke a behemoth like Zhuang Lou for no reason. Secondly, even if there are really people who secretly have a feud with us, they are prepared, and if they can ambush here, they must have obtained accurate information about us! Then how can they underestimate us so much? Do they let these little characters die? This is completely meaningless except to offend us. As for the end, it was a woman's intuition, and my intuition told me that they just happened to be here, and they must have had some other purpose, but they were unlucky enough to meet us. ”
"Poof...... ......"The first two, the hat man didn't react, but the last one made him almost squirt out of his mouth, and he choked on wine."
It was easy to kick over, he wanted to turn his head and glare at Yu Lianyi who was still covering his mouth and snickering, only to find that in such an environment, under such a big hat, Yu Lianyi couldn't see his gaze if he couldn't turn his head, so he gave up his senseless actions.
"The first two analyses are good, but you still think too simply, although my Zhuanglou is huge, on the surface, it is also well water with other forces, but everyone knows it in their hearts, as long as there is a chance to yin each other, as long as the other party can't find out, then it is not a tearing face, then it is still a friend! Not to mention, this situation may also be taken advantage of and framed by others...... In short, you're just talking about the most desirable outcome. ”
"Cut, you know that every day you hide yourself under the hat and never see the light. Your heart is the same, because there is a layer of diaphragm, and the warm sun can't shine in, so it will be so dark. Where in the world is there as unbearable as you say? Precautionary measures, that's true, but if it's raining all the time in your heart, then you'll never have a sunny day. Sang Ming, in the future, I don't want to call you Senior Brother Yu, as for how you want to choose, I don't care. Yu Lianyi somehow reacted greatly to what the hat man just said, and her emotions suddenly became excited.
The hatper was stunned, he didn't expect that this junior sister who had seen her since she was a child would suddenly seem to be a different person. But he was speechless, after all, over the years, he had been unhappy in such a life, and he was also very confused, so he had been living in Dongchang, as the most powerful layer of protection in Dongchang Zhuang Building. If it weren't for the protection of his junior sister this time, he wouldn't have come out easily
