Volume 1 Huangquan December, Chapter 17: Dao encounters a robbery
Early the next morning, while riding a horse on the road, Ah Luan actually fell asleep again. At first, she was like a cat or a dog, carefully clinging to the horse's back. Mu Wan looked at her hair from behind.
It was an explosion. Who knew that the horse was bumping its hooves on the road, and she was swaying, and soon she became sleepy again. She had to worry about not letting her fall.
"Yesterday, I said I was afraid of horses."
"Oh, she has a young character, and she has often seen unclean things when she was young. The horse her father brought her back to learn from when she was a child was an old horse from the battlefield. I am afraid that the armor is stained with yin energy, and she will see it.
I shouldn’t have looked at it. I was so frightened that I fell down and was possessed by the evil for another two months.”
"This is what happened. It seems that it was not easy for you to lead her all the way."
"How should I put it? This girl is actually quite powerful."
"How can I see it?"
"Have you seen her mahogany sword? It was a gift from me when she came of age. Do you think what was the first thing she did after getting the sword?"
"It's normal for children to love to play and be noisy. Could it be that she broke it for you?"
"She took it to sharpen it."
""
"I didn't expect that you looked so fierce yesterday." Shan Hai said with a smile.
Mu Wan sighed: "Let's just say it happened for a reason. I hate those domineering officials the most in my life. It was these people who killed my biological father."
In fact, there is another reason, that is, the cigarette pole outside the member Pei looks irritating. As for the reason, she is not going to say it for now. It is better to do less than to do more.
"So there is such a hidden secret? Anyway, you do have a grudge, but I don't even know about my parents. According to Master, I was sent to Linxiaoguan because of my bad luck with my parents. I don't know.
Have they ever been reincarnated, and how have they lived?"
"Then do you miss them?"
"It's natural to think about it, but I grew up in Guanyin since I was a child, and I don't have any obsession with looking for them."
"This is where I am different from you. I don't like the saying that everyone has his or her own destiny, wealth and honor are in the sky. I shouldn't blame everything on the numerology. There is an old saying that my destiny is mine.
Isn’t it up to God?”
"Well, everyone has their own creed, there is nothing wrong with it. By the way, the monster you summoned the day I saw you was not a Tengu? Is that also your shikigami?"
Mu Wan thought for a moment, as if trying to figure out how to give a simple explanation.
"Ah, indeed, that is the Snow Tengu. The bloodline inherited from my mother has the power to command the Tengu. However, there is a price."
"I seem to have heard about it. I thought it was a legend, but I didn't expect it to be true. The price seems to be that if the master's ability is not recognized by the Tengu, it will be counterattacked?"
"That's right."
In fact, they are not talkative people, and they did not chat like this all the time. They just asked one or two questions to whoever thought of something, and then they were speechless. They chatted like this without saying a word, and Aluan woke up.
It was more lively when we arrived. This mountain road is not difficult to walk, but it is endless and there is no end in sight. When night comes, I find a safe cave to light a fire and make do with it for the night. Fortunately, Aluan is a good person.
The master who serves can endure hardships and never complains about anything.
The further south you go on this mountain road, the more moving and bizarre the scenery becomes. The distribution of plants becomes sparser and the types gradually decrease, but the mountains and rocks are colorful, as gorgeous as the clouds, which makes people sigh with emotion.
Moreover, there are a lot of small animals, and they are more spiritual than those in the north. Mu Wan, who has lived in Xueyan Valley for a long time, can feel that there is also a spiritual energy behind him here. This so-called spiritual energy is spiritual energy in humans, but it is spiritual energy in monsters.
The body is also called evil spirit. There are also many places where it is simply called "Qi", "Li", "Tao" and other mysterious and mysterious things.
"I heard that Jintong Township was originally a copper character for brass, and it was also the earliest mineral deposit discovered there. Later, more and more mineral spirit stones were mined from this mountain range, and they were of many colors and very colorful, so I added it in front
Got a brocade."
Aluan asked Shanhai, why did it become the word "tong" for Wutong again?
"You see, the flowers and plants along our journey have become increasingly scarce, leaving only these scattered sycamore trees. I heard that when we go down the mountain, the sycamore trees growing at the foot of the mountain are even more luxuriant. Through it, we reach Jintong Township. This word
It changed over and over again, and finally it was settled like this.”
They walked through this mountain for three full days. On the morning of the fourth day, when the mist cleared, they could clearly see the forest belt at the foot of the mountain. On this mountain, they even saw many abandoned mines. The strange thing was that
, there was not even a trace of a laborer. There were also some abandoned tools on the roadside. Mu Wan got off his horse and checked carefully. They were all worn out and dusty. It didn't look like something unexpected happened suddenly - not to mention.
There were no bones nearby. It was very peaceful these days, and the journey was smooth. Apart from some skin injuries caused by rocks, vegetation, and trees, nothing happened to them.
But as soon as he came down the mountain, Aluan ran into big trouble.
This mountain range is indeed rich in minerals, but there are very few water sources. Not long after walking in the forest, Aluan saw sparkling light shining in the forest to the east. There must be a water source there. She wanted to wash her face, so she jumped
They dismounted and the other two people waited where they were.
"Less than thirty feet to the west, there is someone there, probably a local."
Shan Hai suddenly said this. Mu Wan looked at him and listened, and she heard someone's voice. However, she was not sure whether it was a man or a woman, and whether she was really a local as Shan Hai said.
"Wait a moment, Aluan, I'll ask for directions." As he said that, he turned the horse's head.
When Aluan ran through the forest, he saw a piece of calm water. The area of the water was not large, and it did not look deep. There were no water sources around it. It might be a pool of stagnant water from accumulated rain. But this
The water looked quite clean, so she bent down and splashed the water on her face, and she immediately felt much refreshed.
A figure passed over the water.
She didn't notice it. After all, the water covered her eyes, and nothing could be seen on the rippled water. At most, people thought it was the shadow of a flying bird. But the next moment, the person behind her grabbed her by the back of the neck and pushed her into the water.
, pressed firmly.
Aluan was shocked, choked with most of the saliva in his lungs, and struggled in vain.
At this time, Mu Wan's figure flew from the forest, like an arrow from a string. She and the man held hands at the water's edge. Ah Luan rolled out of the water and climbed to the shore, coughing and hiding.
After reaching a huge boulder, he only dared to expose half of his head. I think this person must be innocent. The momentum of the fight was simply prepared, and his movements were fierce and neat. He was not much taller than Mu Wan, who was
He was no less impressive. He used his umbrella as a sword and fought against the bandits with bare hands. He showed no mercy to anyone.
Strangely enough, although the two of them moved extremely fast, Aluan noticed that the bandit was wearing a mask.
The moment the two of them took to the air, Mu Wan pointed the tip of the umbrella straight at him, removed the umbrella from bottom to top, and threw the spear up. This was enough to kill someone. She didn't intend to use it, but during the fight with him
I didn't feel that he had any intention of stopping to reason, especially with that mask, which almost said "I'm here to do bad things" written on his face.
At that moment, Aluan saw his mask clearly. It was a mask with a slight curvature, with squinted eyes and two bright red eyeshadows. The mouth may have been a straight line, but it was arched by the curvature of the mask, and it was different from the curve of the mask.
The eyeliner contrasts to form a subtle arc, which looks like a smile. There are strange and winding lines like beards on both sides, and there are a pair of pointed ears on it. I don't know whether it is a dog or a fox or something like an animal.
Suddenly, the masked man faced the tip of the umbrella and struck out hard with his inner strength.
If it were an ordinary person, his hand would have been pierced by the umbrella. But his move actually blocked the umbrella. Mu Wan then struck a palm at the lower end of the umbrella handle. The two qi energies collided in the air, creating a layer of terrifying energy.
The terrifying air waves spread, startling the birds in the forest. In an instant, hundreds of birds flew into the sky together, like dark clouds covering the sky.
Click.
The umbrella handle was cracked, and a wooden flower bloomed in the middle.
Mu Wan's face turned ugly in an instant. Surprise, anger, anxiety, and complex emotions flashed through her eyes at the same time.
"who!"
Lin Shanhai rode a horse and ran out of the woods. Seeing that he was outnumbered, the masked man walked quickly towards the water. Shanhai reined in his horse and saw only scattered splashes on the water. He could have chased after him, but at the moment, the two
The girl's safety is more important.
"I'm fine." Mu Wan glanced at the mountains and seas where he was dismounting, and then held up his umbrella. His eyes were full of sadness, but he didn't mention it, "It's just that Miss Aluan is afraid of getting cold."
Aluan then ran from behind the stone to the master's back and grabbed the hem of his clothes tightly.
At this time, there was another sound of vegetation in the forest. Mu Wan instinctively prepared to challenge, but Shanhai stopped her.
What came over was a very tall young man with a wide chin and a big nose, but his unshaven face looked a bit older. He was tall but extremely thin, and looked like he was holding a pole abruptly. He had short, unkempt hair.
The bun was tucked into a turban, and the thick beauty looked like it had been painted directly on with charcoal. There was a somewhat conspicuous scar in the middle of the eyebrow on the left side and on the lower jaw.
He was carrying a load of firewood and holding a sickle in his hand. He seemed to be an ordinary citizen with no martial arts or magical attainments. He had not witnessed the dispute just now, so he was a little confused. But this man didn't talk much and just moved forward.
After a few steps, she came to Mu Wan. She did not raise her head, but she was still a little wary.
"Who is this"
"Oh, it's the local I just went to find. He was cutting firewood nearby. Before I even asked what was going on, I heard some movement here. How are you, are you not hurt?"
"A-luan choked a few times on her water. I was afraid she would catch a cold."
The young man who was chopping wood suddenly walked up to her, and Mu Wan subconsciously became wary. But he neither looked at her nor touched the umbrella. He just looked closer and whispered:
