Chapter 371 Bandits
Those stones are quite small, many weighing hundreds of kilograms, and it takes some effort and time to move them away.
Dongming Ziyu looked up at the top of the mountain. The rocks should have rolled down from the top.
Zhu Shenzhi reminded: "I heard that there are good bandits on this road, each occupying the top of the mountain and becoming king. Everyone, please be careful."
Everyone was alert and did not dare to change the route easily.
Erhu and Wulang led two guards on horseback to explore the road ahead, and then came back and said: "If you walk forward for an hour, you can go around the official road."
Dongming Ziyu looked towards the path. The forest was deep and the road was too narrow to allow only one carriage to pass. Therefore, when passing, they had to line up one by one in a straight line. It was difficult to turn around in the middle.
Erhu said: "Vehicles must walk in a row."
Dongming Ziyu asked: "Don't you think it's a coincidence that these stones landed here?"
Wulang looked up at the hilltop by the roadside thoughtfully and said, "There is something really wrong. The vegetation on this hill is so lush that it covers all the rocks. How could such a big rock roll down?"
Ling Yue poked her head out of the carriage and raised her own doubts, "The stone just happened to block the road, and there happened to be a small road next to it. It was really a coincidence. When things go wrong, there must be monsters. I always feel that something is wrong.
.”
There were several old people in the team and a patient lying in the carriage. Dongming Ziyu didn't want to take any risks and said, "Everyone worked hard to clean up the stones."
Cao'er rolled up his arms and rolled up his sleeves, "This is easy!"
There was no need for luck or anything like pushing, moving, and kicking, and the big rocks were easily brought to the side of the road.
The guards who had martial arts had it easy, but the four who didn't have martial arts couldn't lift the big stone, so they could only help clear away some gravel.
Zhu Shenzhi's family were all shocked by Cao'er's magical power.
Mrs. Qian said happily: "This girl is born with supernatural powers. A small person can be as strong as three or four big men."
Zhu Shenzhi stroked his beard and nodded, "This is a good young man who can practice martial arts."
Wulang carried a small stone and threw it into the grass by the roadside. When he looked up, he found many birds flying in the direction of the path.
He ran to Dongming Ziyu and said: "Dad, dad, something is wrong! Look at the flying bird! There should be someone on the path. We are watching here. No one is passing by. If there are people coming from the opposite side, they don't know there are rocks here.
, there shouldn’t be any detours, just come here.”
Dongming Ziyu touched Wu Lang's head, "How smart! Dad heard the sound of someone rushing over."
Shangguan Ruoli also heard it, his eyes sharpened, and he whispered: "The old man, women, and children all hide behind the big tree over there! Prevent them from shooting arrows!"
Everyone rushed to the carriage first, took out their weapons, and then found big trees and rocks to hide behind.
Wulang obediently hid behind a big tree with Ling Yue, raised his sleeve crossbow, and aimed at the woods opposite.
Dongming Ziyu, Shangguan Ruoli, the male servants, and the guards all drew their swords and entered the first level of combat readiness.
Those people rushed closer and quickly hid behind the tree. They were a little dumbfounded and said, "Brother, we seem to have been discovered, what should we do?"
The eldest brother is a short, lean, middle-aged man, holding a big bow. He has a hideous scar from his forehead to his chin, which makes him look very vicious.
He looked at the fully loaded carriages and several good horses, his eyes full of greed and cruelty, "It's not easy to meet a fat sheep once, and the fat meat is on the lips, how can you let it go like this?"
!”
The younger brother was a little scared, "But, they all have weapons!"
The eldest brother snorted coldly, "We also have weapons! There are still many of us! It's interesting when you meet your opponent, so give it to me!"
He jumped on a boulder, set up his bow and shot an arrow. Under the cover of his arrows, his brothers rushed out with swords in their hands. The large, dark group numbered hundreds of people, and five against one was more than enough.
