Eight hundred and twentieth chapters road has thorns
The large group of people left Linshan County in a mighty manner. Zuo Feng saw Mr. Zhong before leaving the county. Mr. Zhong just waved goodbye to him from a distance without having a chance to say another word.
Mr. Zhong's expression was a little special. He looked a little tangled, as if he wanted to say something to himself.
If only what Deputy City Master Yao said, Zuo Feng would only be more vigilant. But now that Mr. Zhong is like this, Zuo Feng has to be sure that there must be something that these two people have heard about.
We met Hua Qi at the city gate. In addition to Hua Qi himself, there were many people who were dressed somewhat similar to Hua Qi. The clothes of these ten people had very similar patterns to Hua Qi. It looked like they were
The warriors they paint are also very good in cultivation. The weakest ones are all in the middle stage of tempering, and the masters are already in the Qi sensing stage.
Although there are only fifteen of these people, from their special positions when walking in the heart, it is not difficult to see that they often cooperate with each other and have a set of joint martial arts. Such joint martial arts by multiple people are very rare.
Once practiced, it is very powerful.
Zuo Feng had very little contact with him in the past. It was not until he arrived in the new county that he saw the power and effect of this kind of joint martial arts. Especially in multi-person melees, it was the existence that could best suppress the situation.
Hua Qi's mood was obviously not very high, especially after seeing Zuo Feng, he didn't even want to say hello, he just bowed slightly on the horse. Zuo Feng didn't care much about this, after all, he
The Seventh Young Master is a painter, so he doesn't need to be polite to him.
What Zuo Feng is more concerned about is whether the group of people brought by Hua Qi are the ones that Vice City Master Yao reminded him to pay more attention to. If this is really the case, it seems to make some sense.
The combat effectiveness of these fifteen people should be good, but the city guard was dispatched into a team of nearly 200 people. It is difficult to defeat such an army with the strength of these fifteen people alone, let alone in this team.
Kill yourself in it.
In Zuo Feng's view, if Hua Qi and the painter were really crazy, they would never openly attack him. In that case, even if he killed himself, he would not be able to explain the matter when he went to the imperial capital. At the same time, it was very likely that he would
be disqualified.
Of course, these judgments themselves are all based on Zuo Feng's cognition. He still can't really judge the true attitude of the Xuanwu Empire, so since Hua Qi next to him is hostile, he has to add twelve points
Be careful.
However, as a large pair of people slowly left Linshan County, Zuo Feng felt that his worries seemed a bit unnecessary. At least, Hua Qi showed no intention of attacking him.
Linshan County City is located in the Lingyao Mountains, and just a few miles away from the city, it turns into a rugged mountain road. It is impossible for a large group of people to move forward in formation on such a road, because the narrowest position can only accommodate
The next three people walked in parallel, so the line was stretched thin.
Hua Qiyou and his people walked at the back of the team from the beginning, while Zuo Feng followed the past practice and walked at the front of the team. This is actually a practice for many years.
After the competition, the first place and the second place will go to the imperial capital. This journey will not only give the two promotions the appearance of winners and let people admire them, but also an opportunity to show off the military appearance of a county.
Therefore, the first place must have the attitude of first place, and will naturally be protected in the front position in the team. Although the second place is also promoted, it will be at the back of the team to distinguish. In this way, there is a gap between the two
They distanced themselves, and they didn't worry about any friction between them on the road.
After leaving the city, Zuo Feng was still secretly observing the actions of Hua Qi and his guards to see if they were doing any tricks secretly. However, after observing for a while, he found that their people were actually very honest, and even interacted with the surrounding guards.
No such thing as a conversation happened.
Seeing these situations, Zuo Feng felt a little relieved, but at the same time he also felt more headache, because if the seventh painting was eliminated, where could other threats appear, and for a moment he had no direction.
After the group left Linshan County, the first few miles of the road were fairly wide and flat, and they walked fairly quickly. However, after passing this flat road, they entered a rugged path in the mountains. Walking on such a road is difficult.
It was very rugged and difficult to navigate, so the speed naturally slowed down.
The path they were taking now was completely opposite to the route they had taken with the Su family's convoy. They had gone from Tushan City all the way into the Spirit Medicine Mountains and arrived at Linshan County City.
That section of the road is actually just into the mountains, and coming out of Linshan County towards the imperial capital is a bit more troublesome. Instead, you need to travel a long distance through the elixir mountain range.
Because it is not safe to travel alone or in a small group in the Spirit Medicine Mountains, most people will choose to leave from the direction of Tushan City, and then go to the branch of Ye Xuanjiang River from there to make a large circle and take the waterway to the Imperial Capital. This way
The road is relatively safe and easy to walk, but it takes a long detour and it is impossible to reach the imperial capital within half a month.
Therefore, those who have been qualified for promotion in Laishan County City will be escorted by the team around the difficult road in the Elixir Mountain Range to go to the imperial capital. Zuo Feng still doesn’t know at this time that this road is not just difficult.
That's all, danger is already waiting for you ahead.
Because there are relatively few people walking on this road, there are a lot of weeds on the road. The two rows of soldiers in front not only have to lead the way, but also use their long knives to constantly chop the grass to clear a path for the team behind them.
.
By clearing the road in this way, even if the cultivation of the few soldiers in front has reached the late stage of bone refining, the speed still cannot be increased too fast. Because there are only three or four people crowded in front, the speed cannot be fully increased.
"Looking at your serious expression, is there any danger ahead?"
Amber and Zuo Feng walked side by side. Both of them were gifted a very handsome horse when they left the city lord's palace. It was very convenient for the two of them to talk while riding on the horse. As long as they leaned slightly towards each other, they could
Do not let the surrounding guards hear the conversation.
After listening to this, Zuo Feng sighed secretly in his heart and said slowly: "It seems that I still have to practice, otherwise it would not be a good thing for others to see what I am thinking. Have I been seen to be worried since I left the city?
look like.”
Amber smiled and shook his head and said: "Don't think too much. The reason why I can tell that you are worried is mainly because the two of us have been together for a long time. I don't see some things but feel them."
Yes. Your whole body seems to be tense. If there wasn't something wrong with this feeling, why would you be so cautious?"
Zuo Feng nodded and said: "I do know something, but I don't know exactly what will happen and where it will happen. That's why I am so nervous."
Seeing Amber's puzzled look, Zuo Feng was about to leave the City Lord's Mansion when some of the words Deputy City Lord Yao said and Mr. Zhong's hesitant look came out.
Amber's face immediately darkened after hearing this. Not only could Zuo Feng see the problem in these situations, he could also feel the smell of an imminent storm. For him, a person who often performs dangerous tasks, he could immediately
He smelled a hint of conspiracy and danger, and at the same time, he could also feel that this danger would definitely threaten the two of them.
After pondering for a moment, Amber looked around with vigilant eyes, and said in a lower voice: "Do you think there might be a problem with the City Lord's Mansion? If so, these guards may not be "saving lives" but "taking lives."
Zuo Feng pondered for a moment, and then continued: "I have also considered this. If there is a threat to me, and it can be noticed by Deputy City Lord Yao and Mr. Zhong, there is no doubt that these guards are suspected of the City Lord.
The biggest thing, especially when Deputy City Lord Yao appeared when I left, he did not see me off again, but immediately turned back."
After hearing this, Amber was a little stunned, but she said: "If he really wants to do something secretly, is this too revealing? It seems to be inconsistent with his usual left-handedness."
Zuo Feng nodded and said with a slightly relaxed expression: "Actually, I am just suspicious, and the city lord and city guards are also the most suspicious existences. I have to put them first. But listen to you
That said, I think it is very reasonable, especially if there is a problem with the escort team, he is the first person to be involved, so it seems that his suspicion should not be high."
After listening to Zuo Feng's words, Amber turned to look at the back of the team and said, "It seems that you don't care much about our seventh son."
Zuo Feng said: "Don't you also have no doubts about them from the beginning? It means that you and I still have the same view on him."
"However, this team still cannot fully believe it. If there are really some things we want to miss, we may be caught off guard."
When Amber was talking, Zuo Feng's eyes were already looking far into the thick bushes beside him, and he said: "This is easy to handle. We can take a look at what these guards are like right away.
Already."
Amber listened with some confusion, and looked in the direction Zuo Feng was looking, but saw nothing. However, he soon showed a look of surprise.
The team was still moving forward, but at the farthest point that Zuo Feng could see, a deep roar suddenly came from the trees, and then a strange and fishy wind suddenly hit.
The moment the sound rang out, the surrounding guards immediately reacted. Everyone immediately took action and formed a formation around Zuo Feng.
Only an hour had passed since everyone left Linshan County, and they were immediately attacked. This confirmed Zuo Feng's premonition that this journey would be uneventful.
