In other words, Yi Dan rode a horse and chased the thief all the way north, running for dozens of miles. And the running ability of the two horses is equal, Yi Dan can always vaguely see the figure of the person not far in front of him under the night sky, running on a horse, but he can't catch up with him.

When he came to a fork in the road, the man chose the road to the west on the left, and Yi Dan also rode after him, and it was not long before the flat road was finished and came to a dense jungle. The jungle was crisscrossed by mountains, and I watched as the man rode into the dense jungle and disappeared. Yi Dan followed a path up the mountain, using the hazy moonlight, and after wandering back and forth several times, he still found no trace of the thief.

Although the thief snatched the horses and calligraphy and paintings given by Mu Yongxiao, as well as the scabbard of the colored gems left to her by her brother Yi Anjie, it was also her only thought of her deceased relatives, but there was no way to catch up with the thief, after all, she did her best, and in the middle of the night in this barren mountain range, she didn't dare to catch up anymore, for fear that it would be bad if she got lost. So Yi Dan rode his horse and slowly walked back down the hill with his head downcast.

It was the middle of the night, and when Yi Dan walked back from the hillside, he saw a team of soldiers holding torches and hurrying away in the starry night not far from the mountain. At a glance, there were about 100 people in the procession, each of whom was carrying an ox cart, and the cart was full of sacks.

Seeing the fire of the team, Yi Dan hurriedly stopped and hid on the nearby hillside to avoid the officers and soldiers from arguing with them. As the team passed not far away, a wild cat with green eyes sprang out of nowhere, and a cow was frightened, broke free from the reins, and knocked a soldier escorting grain and grass, and stepped on the soldier's calf.

"Ahh ”

The whole grain transport team listened, and the leading officer and soldier walked up to the wounded soldier to check the wounded soldier's condition. Seeing the soldier lying on the ground moaning, he hurriedly asked, "Brother, how are you?

The soldier said: "Captain Jiao, my leg has been trampled on and I can't walk, you can leave quickly, leave me alone, the terrain in this area is dangerous, you can't stay for a long time, in case there is an enemy ambush, it will not be good." ”

The captain said, "No, you were injured for our food, how can I leave you alone?" So the captain dropped the knife in his hand, took out a few wooden sticks from the car, tore off the corners of his clothes, and tied the soldier's wounded calf.

The soldier saw that the Captain Jiao in front of him was so concerned about him, so he said very gratefully: "Captain Jiao, thank you, you have worked so hard and have to take care of me, I really can't go." ”

Captain Jiao said: "What are you talking about, we are all brothers who were born and died together, of course we have to take care of each other." ”

The soldier said: "Captain Jiao, to be honest, you are also a warrior of Jiaowutang, say something that should not be said, you are righteous and strong in martial arts, I think the lord asked you to be a little grain transport captain, it is really unfair to treat you like this." ”

The captain of the Jiao team seriously tied the soldiers' legs, and then said calmly: "What's unfair? I can walk and jump now, at least I am free, and I am very content to stay here to escort grain and grass." The lord has his difficulties, we are subordinates, don't speak ill of the lord behind our backs, we must share our worries with the lord, and don't embarrass him too much. ”

The soldier said: "Captain Jiao, General Yang Tingyi is now the chief supervisor of supervising the transportation of grain and grass, and his status is comparable to Xiao He in the Han Dynasty, and he is also your uncle, why don't you speak good things for you in front of the lord?"

Captain Jiao smiled slightly and said, "General Yang also has his difficulties, let's not make trouble for him, let's just do our own thing, do you say?"

The soldier said: "Captain Jiao, you respect the lord and love the soldiers, no matter what, we will swear allegiance to you to the death, and we will never change." ”

Captain Jiao heard this, and said with relief: "Thank you brothers for your love, we are all for the Lord and the people, as long as we do our duty and have a clear conscience." Speaking of this, the captain gently patted the soldier's shoulder: "Your leg has been fixed, I'll help you to rest in the ox cart, don't walk anymore, otherwise this leg will be crippled." ”

"Then thank you, Captain Jiao!"

With that, the captain helped the wounded soldier and got him on the ox cart loaded with grain.

Yi Dan, who was on the hillside, looked at all this, and intuitively felt that Captain Jiao should be a loyal and righteous person, and he suddenly admired it in his heart.

The captain had just helped the soldiers into the ox cart when suddenly a group of people came out of the hillside on the other side. All of them were armed with large knives, dressed in black, with grass and trees on their heads, and it seemed that they had been dormant for a long time and had come prepared.

For a while, the murderous ambush army attacked the grain transport team from all directions.

Captain Najiao ordered: "Quick, line up for defense." ”

The soldiers stopped, took their spears, and quickly formed a circle formation, protecting the grain, grass, cattle and horses in the middle to resist the sneak attack in the night.

Although there are not many people in black, they are all carefully selected agile soldiers. They rushed up in a swarm, desperately killing the soldiers who were carrying the grain.

Seeing the enemy rushing up, Captain Jiao shouted: "Divide into two and outflank the thief army." ”

So the array broke off from the middle, forming two circles of about fifty people, and tightly enveloping the enemy troops of about twenty or thirty people.

Just when the enemy was surrounded by groups and the soldiers thought that it would be easy to control the enemy, suddenly another group of enemies came out from the hidden place in front of them.

From the outside of the encirclement, the enemy formed another circle of counter-encirclement. Instead, the grain soldiers were caught in the middle by the double-layered enemy army, and a dilemma, an earth-shattering battle began, in this quiet valley.

The captain of the formation joined the killing team from the outermost, but after all, the team was surrounded by the enemy's overtaking, and the weak captain of the team took care of one and the other. He can only fight back and forth to kill the enemy, trying to rescue his own soldiers as best he can.

And the enemy soldiers grew stronger, and after cutting off the head of a soldier transporting grain, they still held it in their hands and shouted: "Kill these people, cut off the grain route of the northern thief army." With that, the enemy soldier put the head of the soldier carrying the grain on the ground, trampled it with his foot, and then kicked it and flew out. Immediately afterwards, the other soldiers followed suit, cutting off the heads of the soldiers who carried the grain, humiliating and spitting.

At this moment, Yi Dan, who was on the hillside, couldn't hold back any longer, she angrily pulled out the sword in her hand, jumped up from the horse, and rushed directly towards the person who humiliated the corpse at the bottom of the hillside.

Yi Dan fell from the sky and knocked the knife out of the soldier's hand with a sword, and instead of trying to kill, she kicked the man in the chest, sending him flying into the crowd and hitting a large group of sneak attackers.

Among the sneak attackers, a leading man saw the woman in white clothes descending from the sky in front of him, so he asked, "Where did the woman come from, report her name?"

Yi Dan said angrily: "I am just a passer-by, and my name is not worth mentioning, although I should not interfere in these things. But killing people is not too much, don't you know that you can't be humiliated if you kill someone? What kind of soldier is this when you kill someone and humiliate the corpse? It's not even as good as a bandit. ”

The leader of the sneak attack said, "What kind of bullshit is insulting? I don't understand. All I know is that it is right to win, brothers, give it to me. ”

The enemy army surrounded them, and Yi Dan didn't want to kill people, so he had to try to go around with them. She struck briskly, steadily and accurately picking off a large number of soldiers' weapons. And all of them are point-to-point, only unloading weapons, and not killing.

At this time, a jaw-dropping scene happened, the soldiers who were picked off by Yi Dan unexpectedly took off their clothes and pants, stood naked in front of Yi Dan, and knelt down to her in unison.

Although the moonlight was hazy, how could Yi Dan dare to open his eyes to see such a scene. So she turned her face away, covered her eyes and shouted helplessly, "That... Captain Jiao, help me, what kind of trick are they playing, it's too shameless. ”

Seeing that Yi Dan had helped him subdue the enemy army, Captain Jiao hurriedly ran forward to stop the enemies who had stripped off their clothes and trousers, and waved the war knife in his hand, so that they were frightened.

"Okay, girl, it's okay, you can turn around now. After Captain Jiao drove away the enemy, he said to Yi Dan.

Yi Dan slowly turned around, let go of the hand covering his eyes little by little, and saw that those people had been driven away, so he asked ugly, "Why are these people so shameless?"

Captain Jiao asked, "Girl, are you coming to Annan for the first time?"

Yi Dan said: "That's right, I just came ashore from Qiongya Island today, but I didn't expect to encounter a series of unfortunate things one after another, hey, don't talk about it." ”

Captain Jiao said: "I haven't asked the girl yet, how did you know you?"

Yi Dan said: "Oh, I don't know Mr. in the next book, but I heard them call you like this just now, so in a hurry, I also called." Please don't blame the gentleman. ”

Captain Jiao said: "Where, where, the girl Bingxue is smart and strong in martial arts." Thank you for your help just now, otherwise I am afraid that I would have died here today. ”

"The gentleman said seriously, he just happened to pass by, and he didn't want to make a move. But their behavior is too much, that's why..."Before Yi Dan's words fell, the man said enviously: "The girl is not only strong in martial arts, but also chivalrous and courageous, and she is really a heroine among women." Jiao really admires it. I haven't asked the girl what to call her, so that I can remember the benefactor's high name. ”

Yi Dan said: "Mr. Jiao is polite, below..." Before Yi Dan could speak, suddenly, a group of enemies rushed up from the darkness.

"Kill..."The enemy's killing voice shook the sky, and he killed the grain transport soldiers and Yi Dan and the others.

"How can this be reasonable, still coming?" Yi Dan was no longer soft this time, she wanted to capture the thief and capture the king first. So she leapt into the air, flew into the crowd of black, grabbed the man who had given the order, put her sword around his neck, and shouted, "Quick, let them all lay down their weapons." ”

The man who was caught by Yi Dan hurriedly ordered in a panic: "Don't act rashly, put down your weapons." ”

When the enemy saw that the leader was captured, they had to put down their weapons one after another, and then began to untie their clothes and bow down to Yi Dan. Yi Dan stopped: "Stop, don't take off your clothes, stop for me." ”

But those people did not listen, and continued to take off their clothes and pants. (To be continued.) )
