As she galloped all the way, Zhao Ying couldn't help but look back.
She couldn't help but want to go back and see if the twenty sacks were still there and whether they had been taken by others. But seeing Chu Li's face sullen and silent, she knew that talking was useless and could not change his mind at all.
She shook her head secretly. Senior Brother Chu was really tolerant. It would be good to hide aside and take a look, so that he could feel relieved. Otherwise, leaving like this would be really unsettling. She always felt that there would be something wrong or inappropriate.
At noon, the sun was scorching hot. Chu Li went into the woods to give the horse some water and take a rest. The weather was not suitable for traveling.
Sitting under the shade of a pine tree, Chu Li shook his head and said, "Junior sister, you are not suitable to be a guard."
"Why?" Zhao Ying sat opposite him, holding a branch and gently dancing it: "My martial arts skills are too poor?"
Chu Li shook his head: "The curiosity is too strong!... As a guard, you have to be deaf and mute. If you can't do it, it will be very dangerous."
Zhao Ying frowned and said: "You have to know the whole story so that you can prevent it in advance."
"Guards should always be vigilant, no matter whether there is danger or not." Chu Li shook his head and said: "As for you, being too curious will affect your judgment and distract him!"
"I just want to see who is going to get the fairy beard."
"Do you know what the difference is?" Chu Li laughed: "The fairy whiskers are for horses to eat. Think about it, who will take them?"
"He's from the government."
Chu Li laughed.
Zhao Ying glanced at him and hummed: "Isn't it?"
"Would the third lady do such a flashy thing?"
"Who could that be?"
“Where will the fairy whiskers be most useful?”
Zhao Ying tilted her head and thought for a while: "If those gentlemen are racing horses with others, of course the more powerful the horse, the better."
Chu Li looked at her helplessly and sighed: "Army, cavalry!"
"Ah!" Zhao Ying shouted softly, but she didn't think of this!
Chu Li said: "Only in the army and cavalry, the fairy beard will exert its greatest power!"
"Brother, are you saying that these fairy beards will be sent to the army?" Zhao Yingxiu's face suddenly changed color, she turned to look around, and whispered: "Will we be silenced?"
"Hey!"
"It involves the army. It is a confidential matter. The government cannot hand over the army!... Is it not dangerous if we know about it?" Zhao Yingxiu's face tightened and she lowered her voice and said nervously.
The Duke's palace is not allowed to have contact with the military. This is an explicit order from the imperial court. Just like the prince is not allowed to associate with ministers, it will definitely lead to a catastrophe.
"It's not that serious." Chu Li smiled and said, "Just don't tell me."
Zhao Ying breathed a sigh of relief and then blushed a little.
Only then did she understand why Chu Li had to leave. She was stupid enough to take a sneak peek. If he was exposed, it would be really dangerous and he would force the other party to silence him!
Thinking of this, she stood up, took out her sword and practiced Feiyan Sword Technique.
Chu Li sat under the shade of a tree and lazily gave some instructions. An hour later, the sun was no longer so poisonous, and the two got on their horses again and started on their way.
In the evening, the sun sets and the tired birds return to the forest.
Chu Li looked at the setting sun and suddenly reined in his horse. Zhao Ying also stopped and looked around cautiously. She pressed her sword and looked at Chu Li: "Senior brother?"
"There is an ambush." Chu Li frowned and sighed.
"Is there another robbery?" Zhao Ying said bitterly: "This Tiger Village!"
They stepped into the realm of Menghu Mountain again. She had been worried about danger, but she didn't expect that she couldn't escape.
Chu Li thought for a while, turned the horse's head and walked back. Zhao Ying hurriedly followed: "Senior brother?"
"You can't go ahead." Chu Li shook his head.
"Aren't they just a bunch of robbers? Just kill them!" Zhao Ying was eager to give it a try.
She is no longer Wu Xia Amon. She has undergone earth-shaking changes. Her sword skills are powerful and her internal strength is profound. She is about to reach the acquired perfection. As long as she does not run into the innate masters of Menghu Village, there will be no problem. Innate masters generally will not go down the mountain to rob.
Chu Li shook his head.
His Great Round Mirror Wisdom has a strong sixth sense, which enables him to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune. He has already issued a warning sign that there is a serious danger ahead and it is not advisable to move forward.
"Then we can't go back, right?" Zhao Ying said unwillingly.
Chu Li said: "Wait a moment."
"How long will it take?"
"They will always come back to the mountains."
"What if they take turns standing guard?"
"Then wait until the master comes back." Chu Li frowned and said, "There should be an innate master!"
Zhao Ying's eyes widened, she opened her mouth but closed it again, and nodded: "I have to be on guard, but it's shameless for an innate master to rob someone!"
Chu Li rode his horse into the woods, tied up the horse, and sat on the dead leaves: "Let's rush there in the middle of the night!"
Zhao Ying nodded.
The two of them sat cross-legged and adjusted their breaths to recharge their batteries.
At midnight, the moon is in the middle of the sky, and the moonlight is bright.
Chu Li opened his eyes: "Let's go!... Stay here!"
"Not riding a horse?"
"There's too much noise, let's use Qinggong to hurry up."
Zhao Ying looked at the two horses with reluctance. She had feelings for them and was really reluctant to give up.
"Old horses know their way and they can find their way back."
"real?"
"The horses in the house have been specially trained to go back on their own."
The excellent horse trainer in the house has trained the horse so smartly that only the owner can get close to it, and it knows the way and can run back on its own without anyone else catching it.
"Okay then." Zhao Ying reluctantly touched the two horses.
She let go of the rope and took some food from the saddle, but was stopped by Chu Li. The two of them had to travel lightly, and an extra bag of dried meat would be a burden at the critical moment.
The two of them used Qing Kung and drove about ten miles when they suddenly saw a bonfire. Two trees were burning in the middle of the road, illuminating the faces around them. There were more than a dozen people sitting near the bonfire, silently.
Zhao Ying looked at Chu Li, who signaled to be careful and walked silently through the woods to avoid them.
In the woods, he suddenly stopped, suddenly walked quickly, and stopped walking. Zhao Ying thought it was strange at first, but later she saw the way through. He was avoiding traps one after another.
There were many traps set in this forest, which were difficult to guard against. If one of them happened, they would alert the group of people. Moreover, she also discovered that a group of people were lurking in the woods, making no sound.
She secretly thought it was very dangerous, they were ambushing here just for the two of them?
He killed too many people and angered the Tiger Village, so he was waiting for the two of him?
Thinking of this, Zhao Ying broke out in a cold sweat. An innate master must have been dispatched. It was too dangerous!
Chu Li took her sneaking, avoiding all traps and those who were ambushing him. He left without any danger and entered a new forest. His speed suddenly increased, and Zhao Ying was dragged away even though she used Qinggong.
After running for more than ten miles in one breath, Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief and stopped to lean against a tree.
