Chapter 1322
Merchant Li understood the urgency of the situation very well, and hurriedly gathered all the guys together and informed everyone of what he had encountered.
Everyone was in a wail, and even a few men wanted to sneak out and blend in with the other caravans, but they were all beaten up and thrown back by the prepared guards.
Seeing this, everyone also knows that there is only one way to go now, and they can only scatter and pack up their things, but they all have their own careful thoughts in their hearts.
Merchant Li couldn't care what his subordinates thought, and hurried to the luxurious carriage, now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, as for wanting to go back alone, I'm afraid that he will die of thirst and starve to death halfway through.
Where can Gu Zheng keep an eye on the outside at all times, and now he is looking at the three of them, they are at the juncture of cultivation, and they can't be disturbed.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, and Gu Zheng sensed that it was Merchant Li, his face was sad, and he hurriedly stepped down from the car.
"Gu Gongzi, this is troublesome, maybe it will affect you. Merchant Li hurriedly said what had just happened, and then took out all the money he had given him before.
After listening to this, Gu Zheng's mind instantly flashed the face of the cold-faced man before, could it be that he had offended the other party so unintentionally, and it caused such a big reaction.
Looking at Merchant Li's dejected face, he didn't know that maybe it was the problem caused by the person in front of him.
"Forget it, you can take the money, it's useless for me to ask him. Gu Zheng didn't take the money bag and pushed it over again.
"You should be careful, if there are other people you know, you can also leave us, there is no need to get involved in this. Merchant Li was not in the mood to shirk the money, maybe he would be snatched away by others in the end, and hurriedly said to Gu Zheng, and he left here.
There's still one night to go, so at least make the most of it and see if there's a turnaround.
It's a pity that everything he did was in vain, it seems that several caravans around him have received the news and have not helped them, one of them is the god of the sea, saying that he wants to transfer all their things over, so as not to be robbed by the bandits outside, it is better to keep it for his own people.
Merchant Li couldn't help it when he was angry, he meditated hard all night and even pinched his hair white, but there was still no good way.
The next morning, everyone was in action, and there were still a few guards guarding their perimeter.
They could only watch as their previous position was robbed and soon disappeared from their eyes.
"Listen, you people are not allowed to approach the caravan, or else, don't blame us for being polite. A guard surrounded by black scales gathered his squad and shouted at them.
Then a sharp sword was thrust into the ground as a warning to them, and they all hurried towards the caravan.
When Gu Zheng came out, he saw a group of people standing in place in despair, but they didn't seem to know what to do, they were surrounded by things that had been packed, and they could leave at any time.
Seeing Gu Zheng come out, Merchant Li greeted him bitterly, and said weakly, "Gu Gongzi, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to affect you." ”
"What should we do next?" Gu Zheng didn't have any frustration on his face, as if he didn't take it to heart at all, but in the eyes of Merchant Li, it was just that the other party was happy and angry, but in fact, he must have blamed him in his heart.
"I decided to continue to follow the big caravan and spend seven days in safety, then there will be a small city, where we will rest, and wait for the next caravan to arrive, and then it will be safe to walk together, because the journey back is about the same time. Merchant Li said with a strong spirit.
"Okay, I'll help if you need it. Gu Zheng glanced around, then said, and then returned to the carriage again.
"Hurry up, do you really want to wait for death? Keep up with the front, maybe you will be safe all the way. Seeing everyone like this, Merchant Li shouted in dissatisfaction, "Now that the matter is over, you can't sit and wait for death."
Only then did everyone feel a little more energetic, and began to continue to carry a dozen carts of goods, and continued along the road to prepare to move forward again.
Under the puzzled gaze of Merchant Li, two children, one older and one younger, walked out of the carriage and prepared to help them.
"Yo Yo Yo, my two little ancestors, what are you doing here? Go back, this is not the place where you should stay outside. When Merchant Li saw it, he hurriedly walked over and said.
This woman is cute and cute, and the man is heroic, how can they be allowed to do such a thing, besides, with their age, this should not have been done by them in the first place.
"Uncle Li, it's okay, we used to do it ourselves, we are not the kind of people who don't know anything, and my master said that it is just for us to exercise. Xiaolan raised her little face and said sweetly.
"yes, I'm very capable, so let's help. Ah Yu puffed out his arms, and a slight muscle emerged from it.
They weren't wrong, because it was indeed Gu Zheng who arranged for them to come down to help, and sent some people away by the way.
In Gu Zheng's perception, far behind, a small pinch of bandits was following, and before the group of them was noticing, someone had already come here to scout for their news.
It looks like it won't be long before the crowd arrives.
Seeing them like this, merchant li didn't say anything, anyway, there isn't much to pay attention to now, just pay more attention to the goods, and, the direction of the carriage is like.
Following the trail of the caravan ahead, they followed.
Merchant Li was a very experienced businessman, and based on the traces left in front of him, he could judge the speed and distance of the opponent, showing that he commanded the convoy to accelerate for a period of time, and then moved forward at a constant speed.
"Everything must go well, and you must rest for a few years when you go back. Looking at the surrounding scene slowly retreating, Merchant Li kept thinking in his heart.
The more he thought about something, the more he came, and half a day later, when they were stopping to rest and eat something, a guy in charge of guarding suddenly changed his face and shouted.
"There's someone coming from behind!
Because the sound of fear was a little sharp, the whole person hurriedly climbed off from under the roof of the car, but he didn't step on it halfway, fell down directly, and fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
Needless to say, the sound of dense horses' hooves in the distance, everyone knew that an uninvited guest was coming, hurriedly put down the lunch in his hand, and subconsciously wanted to escape.
"Everyone hurry up and prepare for battle, there are only a few of them, don't be afraid. Seeing a guy who was injured immediately, Merchant Li sighed secretly, he was injured at the beginning, it was really unlucky, after climbing onto a carriage, seeing that there were only a few people on the other side, he immediately shouted with joy.
You must know that there are more than a dozen of them here, and the other party is probably just a scout guarding the back, if all of them unite, maybe the other party will not risk attacking them.
Hearing Merchant Li say this, a group of them retreated in panic, and hurriedly took out the swords and shields on the side, and then the carriage hurriedly blocked the surroundings, leaving only a gap in the middle, for such a situation, they are very skilled, and when encountering a small group of robbers, it is very applicable.
By the time the bandits got in front of them, they were ready to defend.
"Won't you go down and have a look?" said Shuang'er to Gu Zheng in the carriage. "The opponent is so strong, I'm afraid that if there are some casualties. ”
Although there are only five people on the other side, the one who leads has the strength of the third order, and has a fierce aura on his body, and he knows the elite who escaped from the army at a glance.
The others also have second-order strength, although the number is very small, but for their group of ordinary people, there is simply no one and no way to deal with each other.
"I knew they were behind me, so I sent the two of them out before, and this time it was their experience. Gu Zheng squinted his eyes and said comfortably lying back.
"But they have only been learning for such a short time, and there is no danger. Shuang'er lifted the side curtain, looked at the tense scene, and said worriedly.
"Don't worry, everything is with me, and no one's life will be in danger. Gu Zheng said lightly, and at the same time, his body was recovering rapidly.
A few days ago, I was teaching them with all my might, and my recovery speed was a little slower, resulting in now, barely having the combat power of the early stage of the Golden Immortal, and I had to recover my best state before entering Fengcheng, so that I could roll up this storm.
Because the other party will definitely prevent this, there will definitely be a deeply hidden enemy there to escort their plan, and they can't be careless, break the other party's plan, and see if the other party can continue to hide, at that time, they can have a chance to rescue Xue'er.
Feel Xue'er's state at this time, it is still safe and sound, which makes Gu Zheng feel a little more at ease.
Outside, Merchant Li looked at the little ancestors who were following him, and he was also helpless, he had persuaded the other party to go back, but the other party was unwilling to live or die, so he had to follow them, and he said that he wanted to protect them.
Seeing that the people in the carriage still didn't get down, and didn't care about their children, Merchant Li had no choice but to give up on them first, come to the front, and say to them.
"Friends, if there is anything you need help with, I will not stand idly by. ”
His subconscious meaning is obvious, that is, to buy road money and let the other party give a price.
"Haha, it's very refreshing, I like your character, that's good, I want all your goods, you go with the most basic dry food, at least your life is saved." I saw the captain at the head of the team, slightly comforting the restless war horses below, and laughing.
At this time, Merchant Li was stunned, he didn't expect the other party to be so ruthless, he wanted all their assets at once, and everyone looked at Merchant Li to see how he chose.
"Why don't you agree, do you want to resist? You cats and dogs, do you really think you can hurt us? After a second of slowness, the leader changed his tone and said grimly.
At the same time, he pulled out his weapon, and his strong killing intent was instantly released, and the subordinates behind him also kept shouting, threatening the opposite side.
They are just ordinary people, and they were rushed by the other party's battle-hardened killing intent, and their faces immediately turned pale, although it seemed that there were only a few people, for them it was like thousands of troops.
Several people didn't even hold the weapons in their hands, and they fell to the ground with a "clang".
"Agree, agree, thank you for your grace not to kill, let's go, let's go. Merchant Li's cold sweat flowed out in an instant, compared to his life, money is really something outside his body.
"Well, that's good, throw all your weapons down, give you a stick of incense, and if you don't leave by then, then don't blame us for being ruthless with our swords. The captain snorted, and as if to reassure them, their group retreated a short distance back again.
"Don't worry, we'll pack up and leave now, and quickly lay down our weapons. Merchant Li touched a handful of sweat and hurriedly commanded to the back.
"Wait a minute, Uncle Lee, don't do that. Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind, and everyone was stunned, only to see a little boy leading a little girl out from behind.
"What's wrong?" Merchant Li was stunned again, not understanding why these two little ancestors came out.
"Don't be fooled, the other party doesn't want to let us go at all, what they said before was just to make us give up resistance, so that it would be more convenient to slaughter us. Ah Yu stood at the front and said loudly to everyone again.
He has been crawling outside since he was a child, his eyes are extremely vicious, and he can see through the opposite trick at a glance, and hurriedly come over to stop the other party.
"How is it possible, little doll, I advise you not to talk nonsense, what if you anger the other party. The latter guy said dissatisfiedly, most of them thought like this, thinking that they didn't even want things, how could they kill them, you must know that most of the bandits are just seeking money.
"I'm not talking nonsense, you look at the distance of the opposite side of the retreat, it's not their kindness, but the best charging distance of the other side. Ah Yu pointed to the other side and said.
Merchant Li looked at the other side, and sure enough, a wave of uneasiness suddenly appeared in his heart, could it be that what Ah Yu said was really like that?
"Haha, where did the little doll come from, it's really smart, you can see through it at a glance, it's amazing. The captain over there laughed, without the slightest explanation, but generously admitted.
Looking at the other side becoming gathered together again because of his words, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, just a group of rabble, a charge can break through the other party's assembly, at most, it is just a little injured, and it will not hinder.
"You, you.." Merchant Li didn't expect this to be the case, and he felt desperate in his heart, and he didn't know what to say.
"You people, all of you are going to die, and none of you can escape, this little doll, how about it, if you mix with us, you can ensure the safety of your sister and you. The captain said to Ah Yuan, he admired the other party a little, such a keen observation, you must know that they have a lot of tricks, and the guards who have been outside all the year round have been deceived by them.
"Bah, I'm not going to be with you thieves. Ah Yu also said disdainfully, he looked down on this kind of person the most.
Even Xiaolan next to her glared at each other angrily, her little hands clenched tightly, she knew that the husband of a kind aunt was killed by them.
"Okay, since you don't eat and drink in the toast, I'm going to arrest your sister and sell it to someone else's house as a subordinate. The captain's face sank suddenly, and he was about to give the order to charge.
Ah Yu's eyes turned red in an instant when he heard that he dared to threaten his sister, it was his own reverse scales, and then he rushed directly with a force under his feet, and he wanted him to be punished.
Although he was very angry, he was not stupid, and he knew that he couldn't let the other side charge, otherwise he wouldn't dare to say it, and he could block the other party's momentum.
"It seems that Ah Yu has a good sense of fighting, but I haven't even noticed it. Hiding from the sidelines, he looked at Frost and exclaimed.
"Yes, that kid doesn't look like he is usually arrogant, but once he concentrates, he can really exert 100% of his strength. Gu Zheng exclaimed beside him.
Although he still squinted his eyes and recovered the immortal power of this physical strength, his divine sense had been paying attention to that side, and if there was really danger, he could get out with a single thought.
In this level of fighting, he didn't even bother to make a move.
"Drink, good boy, I didn't expect to have such cultivation at a young age, it seems that I can't keep you, it's no wonder that you like to be in the limelight too much, let's keep a low profile in the next life." ”
The captain looked at the speed of the other party's sharp arrows, and then realized that he had a second-order cultivation at a young age, and he was indeed talented, but unfortunately he was going to die in his own hands.
Regardless of regret, the long sword in his hand pulled out a sword flower in mid-air, and was thrown by him in an instant, and his target was Ah Yu, who rushed to the ground at a high speed.
I saw Ah Yu make a sharp stop and turn on the ground, just bypassing the opponent's side, and at the same time stomped his foot suddenly, and a soft sword suddenly appeared in his hand, stabbing at the opponent's horse.
"You go and kill those people, I'll deal with this kid, and that little girl, don't hurt me by mistake, the new guy seems to like this mouthful." ”
The captain pulled his horse's head and let his beloved mount take a few steps back, and he drew the black iron spear on his side, turned over and got off the horse, and with the help of the momentum that fell from the sky, he stabbed the opponent in front of the door.
He has no mercy for his subordinates, he will not have the slightest mercy for the enemy, whether the opponent is young or old, the enemy is the enemy, and only death will reassure him, which is why he has hardly made a mistake as the scout captain.
Seeing this, Ah Yu successfully forced the opponent down, and a backflip directly flashed the opponent's attack, and the soft sword in his hand glittered in the sunlight, pointing directly at the opposite chest.
Looking at the grim gaze on the other side, he didn't have the slightest timidity.
"Hey, your sister is going to let me be caught by her men, are you relieved? Or is it that the relationship between your brother and sister is already very bad? The captain said with a smile on his face, and did not forget to provoke the concern between them and distract him.
Although his strength is one level higher than that of the other party, the feeling of wandering between life and death tells him that the other party, this little boy, has a fatal threat to himself.
"I think it's your men who should suffer. Ah Yu snorted coldly, of course his sister knows, don't look at her small, her combat ability is even stronger than herself.
"Ahh
As soon as his words fell, the sound of several people screaming and falling to the ground was heard behind him.
