Chapter 1 The Past 1
(Skipping the antecedent part does not affect the reading of this article, and can be read from Chapter 7.) )
At dusk, the geese fluttered their wings and flew far west, and the gloomy mist of the setting sun piled up at the end of the ancient road of sheep intestines.
The shade of the trees, the grass, and the shadows of the clouds on the horizon sank into darkness, and the nightingales in the tall trees on either side made no exception.
In the silence, the more cautious the steps appeared, and every step seemed like a thought.
In the dimness, I slowly saw a man's face clearly, the muscles of the eye lobules were tightened, the corners of the mouth unconsciously pursed the thin and curved nasolabial folds, the mighty eyes scanned back and forth, and the ears filtered one by one.
Hearing only a "hey", the man turned around, it turned out to be an entourage who accidentally tripped up, his face was a little unbearable, and he complained to himself.
A trace of anger flashed on the man's face, his index finger was pestled to his lips, and his cold eyes swept over everyone, and he turned back and continued to hurry with high alert.
A soft and boneless hand covered the man's shoulder from behind, and the man looked straight ahead without time to care, and his throat made a very low voice: "Huh?"
The shadow of the clothes and temples flickered from the afterglow, and the woman behind her affectionately held the man's arm, and her moon-like delicate face leaned lightly on the man's shoulder, and Yan Yu murmured: "We are secretly following the way, there will be no problem, but you are the one who makes everyone nervous." ”
When the man heard this, his face regathered coldly, and he said: "This line of work is about holy relics, it is not trivial, I will escort the holy relics to the ..... even if I swear to death."
"Shhhhh ”
Lian Mo pondered carefully, his eyebrows couldn't help but stretch, and he nodded: "Yes, this task is different from the past, even a few of them are kept in the dark, how can outsiders know about it? ”
The woman smiled and nodded yes, Lian Mo turned around and said to the tired group behind her: "Everyone hold on for a while, cross this mountain, and set up camp to rest." ”
The man who tripped just now complained with a complaining face, and was the first to shout: "I said that even the general, who has climbed over the mountains and mountains, has not told us where we are going? Besides, the sword is used to coming and going every day, and you prefer to teach everyone to climb this barren mountain and mountain step by step, it is better to fight a tough battle!"
The man who spoke was about thirty years old, not only with a long and thin figure, but also with long and narrow cheeks. The word "tough battle" in his words touched Lian Mo's eyebrows, Lian Mo secretly took a breath, and tried his best to say calmly: "Brother Yu Zhi, this matter is very important, I will go back and explain it in detail, and the clan king will also explain it to everyone." ”
There were sixteen people in this line, and they had different guesses in private for a while. Although the number of people traveling is small, there is no shortage of important figures in the clan, and the leader is a general like Lian Mo!
Yu Zhi has always been clear-eyed, and when he saw that Lian was as bored as a gourd, he looked around and checked, and Yu Zhi saw that there were two or three mediocre people in this line, as if he was afraid that the masters gathered would be too eye-catching and use them to hide people's eyes and ears.
can make a character like Lian Mo who has always been extraordinary so cautious, this task must not be underestimated!
But the strange thing is that with such a huge task, why didn't the clan king reveal the truth to everyone, but only revealed it to Lian Mo alone? Is it silent, or does he not trust the rest of the people?
Yu Zhi was on the fifth watch day, was pulled out of the hot bed by Lian Mo, and followed Lian Mo for a day without saying anything, before leaving, Yu Zhi felt that something was wrong, Mo said that he had not seen the king of the Shang clan before leaving, and the whole clan was so lonely that everyone was in danger.
I don't know if this weird feeling is related to this mission, thinking like this, Yu Zhi's black eyes rolled and he was silent.
Everyone looked at it, Yu Zhi's chatterbox was also silent, and he knew that this matter was extraordinary, you know, although this Yu Zhi is a mother-in-law on the surface, he is by no means a greedy character who is afraid of death. Even Yu Zhi became serious, and everyone stopped talking, and they all buried their heads in the road, and the surroundings became more and more dark and lonely.
Suddenly, a light sound that was imperceptible to others drifted into Lian Mo's ears, Lian Mo's face was cold, his palm was raised, and he said, "The footsteps are not right." ”
Everyone was stunned, but they didn't expect that even Mo was on guard to this point, and even the footsteps of a group of people were clearly remembered!
Sure enough, after everyone stopped, not far behind, there was still the light sound of stepping. I didn't pay attention at first, and the people deliberately followed everyone to stop and go, until now the mountains are black and all the beasts are returning to the nest, and this extra footsteps are really bright.
While everyone was holding their breath, Lian Mo had already held down the long sword at his waist, and quietly drew the sword out of its sheath, and the sword body of the silver glow. was pinned behind Lian Mo's backhand, and the sword slept silently in the dark.
The footsteps did not stop, step by step towards everyone.
Suddenly, the light swept through the air and cut straight to the rear. It was Yu Zhi, who couldn't help his temperament, that took the lead in raising the sword, and shouted in his mouth: "The first strike is strong! I'll meet that thief!"
A short and fat person followed Yu Zhi, this person is Cheng Hui, who is accustomed to being with Yu Zhi, Cheng Hui's temperament is honest and practical, and Yu Zhi is very different, although Cheng Hui's sword speed is far less than Yu Zhi, but the momentum and Yu Zhi are not the slightest difference, the blue long axe is at the feet of Cheng Hui, and the two have chased out without a trace.
Lian Mo frowned, and urged the woman next to him to admonish: "Xiao'er, those two are too reckless, I'll go with you to take a look, you should be careful." ”
After that, the silver-bright and clear long sword in Lian Mo's hand slammed towards the soles of his feet, and the whole person rose into the air, the sword light shone in front of him as if it were day, and Lian Mo had rushed out like an arrow!
Tianxiao'er frowned slightly, she didn't expect this trip to be so secretive, and she even leaked her traces!
Tian Xiao'er's eyes were filled with hostility, and a touching snow face covered with frost, and she calmly shouted to the rest of the people: "Everyone be calm and don't be impatient, don't mess up your position, we will stand by and act again!"
When a white-haired old man standing near Tian Xiao'er heard this, he also helped to reassure him: "Mrs. Lian is right! Everyone get ready, don't act rashly!"
When Lian Mo chased after him, he didn't see any fighting, but it was the slender Yu Zhi and the short and fat Cheng Hui, the two of them turned their backs to Lian Mo from afar, and covered the scene in front of them head to head and shoulder to shoulder, not knowing what they were hiding.
Lian Mo got closer and closer, but Yu Zhi and Cheng Hui glanced at Lian Mo crampedly, their arms stretched out in a circle, as if they were hugging something to dodge.
Lian Mohu forced a look at the two of them suspiciously, and forcibly broke off the shoulders of the two of them to take a look, and the scene in front of him made him almost angry.
Just now, the two of them deliberately blocked Lian Mo left and right, but now it is clear at a glance that the one who was protected by Yu Zheng and Cheng Hui was Lian Mo's youngest son who had just turned five years old - Lian Duel.
