On the official road leading from Xiangyang City to Gusu City, Ye Cheng and his party were swinging on horseback while stones were shuttled in the woods beside them.
Originally, Caiyi could ride a horse alone. Who would have thought that in order to ride on the same horse with Ye Cheng, the girl would insist that she did not know how to ride a horse. In desperation, Ye Cheng could only put her in front of him. Now this
The girl lay directly in his arms, squinting her eyes and dozing off.
Long Xingyun turned his head and said with a lewd smile: "Boss, does it feel good? You can see that Caiyi fell asleep while enjoying it!"
Ye Cheng looked at Cai Yi listlessly in his arms. Although this girl was not young yet, why was she still so childish? Perhaps it was the sunset that illuminated Cai Yi's little face, which was so red against the backdrop of her fair skin.
Extraordinarily healthy and attractive.
"I told you, if you take the shortcut, you can also practice your sword skills. Now that you're fine, you've been left behind!" Ye Cheng said complaining, and it was all Long Xingyun's fault for this.
This kid was so talkative that Cai Yi insisted on riding a horse.
Long Xingyun chuckled, scratched the back of his head, and asked after a second thought: "Boss, we have been gone for seven or eight days, when will we arrive at Gusu City?"
"Come on, I didn't go out on foot! But looking at this scene, we are almost within the limits of Gusu City!"
Fortunately, the scenery on both sides of the official road is good, and you can take a look when you are bored. Otherwise, they would have been bored to death in the past few days. Ye Cheng looked at Long Xingyun who was almost suffocated on the horse and said, "If you are bored,
Let’s go take a look in front first, it will be dark soon, so we won’t go on the road at night today and will find a small town to rest for a while.”
As soon as Long Xingyun heard this, he immediately became energetic, slapped his horse's butt, and ran forward, shouting without looking back: "I'll take a look first, you guys walk slowly, like a light bulb."
It’s really unpleasant.”
Ye Cheng shook his head helplessly and muttered to himself: "You can be considered a master no matter where you are, but you are still so careless and have not made any progress at all."
Perhaps because of Long Xingyun's shout before leaving, Caiyi tossed and turned in Ye Cheng's arms a few times, opened her sleepy eyes, stared at Ye Cheng and asked, "Ye Cheng, have you eaten? You're a little hungry."
Ye Cheng looked down and saw a pair of drowsy big eyes, a small cherry mouth half-opened, and stretched out his weak and boneless waist. He felt agitated in his heart and secretly thought that this girl is really a fairy.
He said with a dark face: "We are walking so slowly. We have to wait until next year to arrive in Gusu City. Where will there be food to eat!"
Caiyi rubbed up against his chest. The distance between the two faces was less than ten centimeters, and she said with a smile: "Ye Cheng, you look so handsome with your dark face!"
Bai Shengsheng stretched out his little hand and slid his fingertips across Ye Cheng's face. Then he frowned slightly and sighed resentfully: "It's a pity that no matter how handsome he is, he is not my boyfriend. He is really taking advantage of my sister. Ye Cheng, can you tell me,
What’s your sister’s name?”
Ye Cheng naturally knew what she was thinking. While sighing, he held her little hand and whispered: "Her name is Zhou Ru."
Cai Yi's expression was gloomy. When the man she admired in front of her said the word "Zhou Ru", his expression was so gentle, as if he was caressing his lover gently. His eyes were full of love, tenderness, and an uneasy feeling.
A feeling of extreme jealousy arose in her heart.
"Sister must be beautiful, right?"
"No, she's not as beautiful as you. Don't look at me like that. I'm not lying to you."
Cai Yi pouted her lips. Although she didn't believe what Ye Cheng said, she was still happy in her heart. What woman doesn't want to be praised by the man she likes? She said coquettishly: "Slick, can you show me your sister? I
I really want to get to know her!"
Ye Cheng shook his head, raised his head, looked at the end of the official road and said: "She is very busy, even I don't have time to see her. I really want to put down everything in my hands and go over to accompany her."
Cai Yi was stunned. Could it be that they were still a couple living in two separate places? And it seemed like they hadn't seen each other for a long time. Does this mean that she could take advantage of the opportunity?
Ye Cheng also didn't expect that his words not only failed to dispel Caiyi's persistence, but also made her more determined in her choice. The cause and effect of everything is so clever.
Caiyi boldly stood up from the horse, not afraid of falling off, and shouted towards the dense forest on the right: "Stone!"
In less than three minutes, the stone rushed over from the dense forest on the right, roaring with joy, causing Ye Cheng to try hard to control the horse, grab Caiyi, and throw it at the stone.
Looking at Caiyi being caught, Ye Cheng slapped his horse's ass and said loudly: "Let Shitou follow, I'll go to the front first!"
Knowing that Caiyi was going to run around with Shitou again, after giving instructions, Ye Cheng galloped his horse and whipped his whip and ran out along the official road.
Standing on Shitou's shoulder, looking at the retreating figure, Caiyi muttered: "Huh, I don't believe I can't catch you. Shitou, let's go and find some fun places!"
Ye Cheng rode his horse along the official road and saw players from time to time along the way, most of whom were escorts. This especially surprised Ye Cheng.
Following the direction of the crowd, after running for nearly half an hour, we finally saw a small town built by the river. Before it got completely dark, we could vaguely see the constant flow of people coming and going in this small town, and the big river.
There are as many ships as ants.
Riding on horseback, Ye Cheng felt the difference as soon as he stepped into this small town. Apart from the endless flow of people, what surprised him the most was the system NPCs.
Regardless of the meat vendors here or the old men making clay figurines on the street, everyone has a strong smell about them. Even the children playing on the street are not chasing around with windmills, but waving them.
They were chasing and playing with wooden knives and guns.
This town is not simple. Ye Cheng wrote a letter casually and Feige sent it out.
The tallest building in the town was not a restaurant, but a tall tower made of stones. Ye Cheng looked at the tall tower in front of him that was surrounded by a two-foot-high wall, raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, muttering:
"What's interesting, what is inside this wall, and how can it be so powerful? There are even so many hidden sentries around it."
"Little benefactor, if you don't leave this place quickly, don't be greedy!"
Just when Ye Cheng was wondering, an old voice sounded from behind him, and he was shocked. Ever since Ye Cheng learned to integrate with the surrounding environment, he had developed a strange sensing ability. In such a quiet environment, if it were normal,
Someone within five feet must have felt it. Today, someone actually came within a few feet of him. How could he not be shocked in his heart.
Slowly turning around, he saw a bald monk in ragged clothes standing with a calm expression. The most powerful monk Ye Cheng had ever seen was Master Jingfan of Lingyun Temple, but although the old monk in front of him was not
He had kind eyebrows and kind eyes, but those eyes that seemed to have seen the vicissitudes of life made Ye Cheng feel respectful.
"The boy is just passing by. He doesn't have the greed that the master said, let alone what he is greedy for!" Ye Cheng bowed and said respectfully.
The old monk didn't speak, he just stared at Ye Cheng's eyes for a few seconds, then immediately started to pass him by, muttering Buddhist scriptures and French in his mouth.
It wasn't until the old monk turned into the corner that Ye Cheng came back to his senses. He stopped looking and hurriedly left, rushing to the restaurant to meet Long Xingyun. However, he was certain in his heart that this small town would definitely not be the best.
Simple, it seems like something is going to happen again.
In the restaurant, Long Xingyun had already chosen a seat in a small corner by the window on the second floor. When he saw Ye Cheng coming from the street, he waved his arms hastily.
Ye Cheng entered the restaurant, went straight to the second floor and sat down, drank the wine poured by Long Xingyun, and asked with a long sigh: "Did you find anything new?"
Long Xingyun smiled and nodded, and said in surprise: "Boss, you discovered me again! Do you know where we are now and what is the name of this small town?"
Ye Cheng shook his head and said: "This town is weird. There is no sign at the entrance of the town. I really don't know where it is."
"This is Wujiang Town, Hezhou, Huainan Road. Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, died here!" Long Xingyun said in a low voice.
"Oh? Xiang Yu? What does this have to do with anything?"
"Of course it's relevant. I just found out that the reason why there are so many players and martial arts people here is because tonight the villagers in Wujiang Town are going to pay homage to the Overlord Temple and Xiang Yu's tomb."
"What?"
Ye Cheng was shocked and immediately thought that someone must have triggered the mission. However, after thinking about it, he felt that it was impossible. The unknown old monk just now was definitely not a simple person. With the player's strength, he could not complete the relevant mission. Guess
well.
"Xingyun, have you found out who triggered the mission?"
"Yangzhou - Beggar Gang - Ba Tian!"
Long Xingyun said it word by word, and it turned out to be Ba Tian, an old acquaintance who had caused them great harm in Jiazhou. If he hadn't been lucky, he would have definitely fallen into their hands.
This was beyond Ye Cheng's expectation, and he hurriedly asked: "Tell me, what is the mission?"
Long Xingyun drank a glass of wine, moistened his throat, and then said: "This mission must be due to bad luck among Ba Tian's men. It is said that they were looking for a herb in the Wujiang River. I didn't expect to find it in the deepest part of the Wujiang River.
I accidentally found a bow and arrow, which is said to weigh one hundred and twenty-seven pounds. It was fished out of the water by a few people. It is made of an unknown metal. The equipment prompt only has three words, Overlord Bow!"
"Click"
Before Ye Cheng could drink the wine he had picked up, he was shocked. He crushed the wine glass with great force. He ignored the spilled wine and asked, "Is it really Overlord Gong? That year.
The Overlord Bow that Xiang Yu used?"
"It is this bow. If the bow and arrows are not marked as mission supplies, they cannot be used by people other than the Xiang clan. No one would be willing to hand it over!"
The reason why Ye Cheng was shocked by the Overlord's Bow was that although he had never played the game, he knew a little bit about the history. This Overlord's Bow was a personal belonging of Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Chu, and it was extremely powerful. The bow body was made of black iron.
It weighs 127 kilograms, and the string of the bow is said to be the back sinew of a black dragon. It is said that when Xiang Yu was 15 years old, there was a black dragon in the Wujiang River that was doing evil and harming the countryside. After Xiang Yu heard about it, he came to Wujiang alone that night, found the black dragon, and fought with the black dragon.
After a day and two nights, he killed the black dragon and used the tendons to rub his buttocks to make a string. The black dragon is extremely tough even with cold things, so the string is not afraid of ice, fire, or swords and guns.
If we look at the name alone, it is definitely above the Demon-Suppressing Sword, and the quality is definitely higher than the Demon-Subduing Sword. No wonder there are so many players in this small Wujiang Town, and even the great gods of the system have them.
took action.
Ye Cheng suddenly remembered something and asked hurriedly: "Have you got any news? When did Batian's people get here? How could such a thing be revealed? Even if the items are returned, they will never want the players to know."
"There is a player in the Xiang clan who has been taken into possession and cannot be used by others, but these players are coveting this magical bow! After this player received the news, he spent a huge sum of money to hire someone to snatch it, and the news leaked out."
Ye Cheng turned his head and looked out the window. Night had fallen. He thought for a while and said, "Ba Tian, it's time to settle things between us. We didn't suffer less in Jiazhou City! Let's go.
, let’s guess which way he will take today!”
After getting off the restaurant, Ye Cheng sent a letter to Cai Yi, and then the two figures disappeared into the vast night. It was destined to be another murderous night.
