The thin mist lingers in the wilderness, the dark night in the distance, the neighing of horses and shouting,

Bang

Bang bang

The shaft of the carriage ran through the rugged ground and turned wildly. A fast horse rushed towards the carriage with a knife and shouted at his companion who was driving the carriage.

"Stop!"

"The horse was frightened." The carriage caught up with him, and the big man holding the reins tilted his head and showed anxiety.

Step on the tread…

Behind the carriage, the sound of horse hooves chasing closer and closer, the man riding a horse next to him gritted his teeth: "Protect them!" He suddenly waved his knife and poked it out, slashing the horse's neck.

Xilulu

The horse whined, and the rushing horse kneeled down with its front limbs, and raised its hooves. Under the huge inertia, the carriage ran over and collided with the horse.

The loud bang, the axle broke, the shaft flew out, and hit a tree next to it. The moment the carriage was tilted and disintegrated in the air, the wooden wall on the side was slammed open. The driver who was driving before, grabbed a child and dragged a woman out, and fell to the ground and turned it out several times.

"San'er and the others are left behind and we'll walk into the forest, hurry!"

The man immediately hurried down, picked up the child on the ground, and pulled the woman who was falling and ran into the woods. The driver picked up a knife and followed him, looking back from time to time.

The sound of swords and soldiers colliding can still be heard.

The torch swayed, and the voice suddenly screamed. A figure flew across and hit a tree. The tree body shook and the leaves fell down.

A slender figure with a cardigan, a green robe and built-in thin scales and soft armor took back her hands.

Kakka...

On that hand were iron gloves as dense as scales, fingers and sharp claws. After holding it, the man walked past the corpse under the tree, with his blue and white cheeks, and his eyes were cold and he looked at the only living mouth not far away.

It was one of the three people who escorted the carriage and left behind the rear.

"snort."

The man approached the wounded, withdrew his gaze, raised his steps, and stomped down his feet, twisting the man's neck.

Click.

The neck bone was trampled and broken, and the dead could not die any more.

After a moment, more than ten people here continued to chase after him, and they saw the wreckage of the carriage that had fallen all over the ground.

Someone arched his hands with a knife: "Tong..."

"Um?"

The fire flashed, and the slender figure turned slightly, and the man quickly buried his head: "Captain, there are no corpses around, so the other party may have escaped."

"escape?"

The blue and white face, with a faint lead, outlined the thin lips, spread out the iron hands, and someone handed a small cage behind him.

"Hmph, fortunately, I expected this to be unhappy."

When he opened the cage door, he released a bird, which was slightly larger than his thumb, jumped to his palm, chirped for a while, spread his wings, and flew towards a certain direction in the forest.

"This bird is a precious thing, and is very good at finding traces and keep up!"

With a wave of his iron hand, more than ten people ran and followed the birds.

………….

Rumble...

Under the rock, the Taoist who was about to make a move suddenly covered his stomach, put down the chess piece, stood up, and ran outside.

"Wait for a while!"

Lu Liangsheng, who was pondering about the chess path, raised his head and looked at the back that ran out.

"What are you doing?"

He walked around the rocks and ran to the grass behind and howled from a distance.

"shit!!"

Lu Liangsheng smiled, looked at the chessboard, and continued to think. The Toad Taoist jumped onto the stone, carried the webbing, looked for a while, and nodded.

"Come on, let's take his bad game of chess for the master, and then play."

"Then Master, be careful..."

The scholar picked up the blackspot and said, "In the sound of the wind outside, there was a faint rustling sound coming from the distance."

A wild beast?

The thin eyebrows frowned slightly, and his eyes passed over the master's head. In the distance, between the trees, two men and one woman stumbled and ran with a child.

The woman who followed her was really unable to walk anymore, and her hair was scattered and shaking.

"I can't walk anymore... I really can't do it."

"Madam, let's go for a while, grit your teeth, and let's go for a while."

The coachman holding the child looked back, swallowed, and looked at the big man holding a knife in front of him.

"We ran far away. They probably couldn't catch up. Let the wife and the young master rest for a while."

The big man gritted his teeth. The woman opposite him turned pale and her lips were covered in cold sweat. She was panting and slumped on the ground. The child in her arms was also confused and listless. If she continued, she might not have to catch up with her. The women and children on her side would be no longer able to do it.

The cheeks swelled, and the big man nodded: "Okay, but walk out of this forest first and then rest."

After saying that, he persuaded the woman on the ground. The latter was helped by the coachman and stumbled and followed him. The man leading the way ahead chopped the branches blocking the road. In his eyes, only a few dozen steps away, a fire was burning under a large rock.

The coachman asked carefully next to him: "Can they set up an ambush here and wait for us?"

"How could an ambush be so open and upright?"

After all, the man had martial arts skills and was keen to the ears and eyes. Not far away, an old donkey sneezes between the grass. In the range of the fire, a young man dressed in a scholar was sitting there, with two bookshelf next to him.

After observing the dressing, the big man also felt relieved.

"Is a scholar."

After chasing for the day, the few people were really tired. Since there were people and there were fires, it would be best to keep warm and rest. However, the man who was the first to approached and found that the scholar was playing chess alone, and there was a big toad in a short jacket lying beside him. For a moment, he regretted coming in.

"This man is a little weird, don't talk."

The man instructed the woman and the coachman, letting the two of them get a little closer to the fire, and then put the child in his arms into the woman's arms, pinched the hilt of the knife, and clasped his fists at the scholar there.

"I'll be here. Please give me some convenience. If you disturb me, we'll leave after a break."

Before, Lu Liangsheng had heard what the man said in a low voice. Yu Guangli also looked at the other party and his group. The woman was dressed simply, but her exposed neck and palms were white and tender, unlike a woman wearing such coarse cloth clothes. Another man had thick hands and feet, but he was careful to take care of his left and right, and was obviously a kind of servant.

As for the big man who bowed, he is also a guard without guessing.

However, when you rush to the barren mountains and wilderness at night, you should be alert to anyone you meet. Lu Liangsheng would not be angry about this.

It was just raising his hand and smiling to return the gift.

"It's okay. This big rock is not my own. The hero and you guys are just there."

“I’m grateful!”

After saying that, the two sides did not talk anymore. The child leaning against the woman's arms raised half of his face curiously, looked at the figure opposite the fire, and asked in a low voice: "Mom, that person seems to be playing chess with a toad..."

The woman's hair was scattered, and her beautiful appearance flashed with a glance when she turned her head. When she heard the child's words, she hurriedly covered her son's mouth.

"Jing'er, don't talk nonsense."

The driver beside him pressed against the hole wall, and he looked worriedly at the handsome scholar holding a chess piece, focusing on studying the chessboard.

Lower your voice.

"Sir, I think we should leave... I looked at the scholar so frightened. I often heard people say that meeting a handsome scholar on the road in the middle of the night is absolutely a very human being."

"Well... I think it's a bit weird, too."

The man agreed with what he said, as a warrior, he felt even more acute. I don’t know if he was too sensitive to being chased, but the scholars there felt more and more uneasy.

"Let's go now."

Grasping the long knife at your feet, you will be about to hold the child from the woman's arms, and a buzzing sound suddenly sounded outside.

bee?

Lu Liangsheng raised his head and a very small blue bird flashed its wings quickly, hanging at the entrance of the cave.

The man who was about to leave saw the bird, his face changed wildly and blurted out.

"It's the bird hunting. They found us, go!!"

A loud shout echoed in the cave, and suddenly a scarlet black shadow passed through everyone's sight like lightning, wrapping up the wandering bird.

With a swish, the bird disappeared, and only a feather was left slowly falling to the ground.

"What about birds...and birds?"

The man, even the coachman and the woman behind him, looked at the feathers on the ground in a daze, and his eyes slowly turned to the fire.

Hiccup!

The big toad on the chessboard bulged its belly, and a feather hung on the corner of its mouth.
Chapter completed!
