Chapter two hundred and eighty fourth blood to turn dust and soil two
There are mountains and mountains, dead trees and thickets, strange people and strange things, and the sound of horses neighing.
Under the misty Wutai Mountain, there was a narrow official road. On the bumpy road, two men standing on horseback faced off against a group of bandits in strange costumes. The situation at this time revealed a comical feeling.
The aura, especially that group of bandits in weird clothes, none of them seemed to have any fitting clothes on them, they were all wearing a variety of clothes. Some were loose, some were as bright as silk. And the bandits’ hands were
They were also holding more grotesque weapons, none of which seemed to be decent. However, there was a strong aura about the bandits, and it was also amazing to be free from this Buddhist holy gate that was completely deserted.
thing.
The leader of the horse thieves was a man of medium height in his thirties. Among the horse thieves, this leader was the only one whose clothes were somewhat normal. His cloth clothes were tightly tied, which outlined his strong body.
It was vivid and vivid, especially the thick eyebrows and big eyes on the face of the Chinese character, which seemed to be somewhat heroic. The leader of the horse thieves looked at the two pedestrians riding horses in front of him with a suspicious look on his face.
One of the pedestrians was a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old. His handsome and handsome temperament was revealed in his black clothes, and the boy also had a strange aura about him that made him feel palpitations.
A few faint traces of blood-evil aura emanated from the young man's body, making the cold ice-like sky seem even more terrifying. Under the young man's slightly wrinkled sword eyebrows were a pair of bright black eyes.
With his eyes like dotted paint, tightly pursed lips under the high bridge of his nose, a cold and fierce aura emerged spontaneously. The young man sat firmly on the horse, holding a sheathed saber in his hand, and a pair of stars.
The sharp light from his eyes was sweeping towards the group of horse thieves, and at the same time, an aura like a violent explosion rose faintly.
And a man standing on horseback was a red-faced man in his late thirties. He was wearing a yellow brocade robe and showed an extraordinary figure. The man had piercing eyes and a smile on his face, intentionally or unintentionally. He held in his hand
Holding a golden stick as long as his eyebrows, the man exuded a heart-wrenching temperament, and there was a hint of heroic spirit rising from the sky in his demeanor.
Ma Chenghui was shocked. He did not expect that the owners of these two horses actually exuded an extraordinary aura. Moreover, the other party was obviously calm and composed, and did not pay attention to the ragtag group of them at all. Instead, he looked at the two extraordinary auras.
The eager light when riding the horse also faded like a basin of cold water. After being a bandit for so long, he still had this bit of eyesight. Ma Chenghui couldn't help but think about how to end it. Apparently these two pedestrians were traveling alone.
They were by no means ordinary people, and even though they were outnumbered, there was no fear in the other party's eyes. The other party must have something to rely on, so they were not afraid of their dozens of bandits.
Just as he was rolling his proud eyes, an urgent cry broke the delicate situation.
But they saw Ma San, who was wearing an ill-fitting wide satin round collar and a rich man's skirt, suddenly ran down the mountain, and he was running very fast. He couldn't help but gasp for breath, and said intermittently: "Hui."
Brother, Brother Hui, something serious is going wrong????????”
Leader Ma frowned, and couldn't help but get angry. Before the skinny Ma San could reach him, he kicked him. With a scream of "Ouch", the skinny Ma San
San couldn't withstand the kick from the strong bandit leader. He was already kicked down on the official road and rolled on the road full of potholes. But he was not seriously injured. The road was full of potholes.
After rolling for a while, he stood up again.
When the bandits saw it, they couldn't help but show some doubts, and at the same time, there was a look of gloating in their eyes. No one paid attention to Ma San who was kicked to the ground. Everyone saw the miserable Ma San.
Covered with mud, he couldn't help but burst into laughter at the same time. That guy usually wore that silk robe like a rich man, and often made a fool of himself in front of them. He regarded that big robe as more important than his wife, no matter what
, he hasn’t married a wife yet, and that robe can be said to be that Ma San’s wife. Normally, if everyone touches that satin robe, that guy will get angry with anyone, but fortunately, Ma San and the leader are in a hurry.
Fellow fellow, we didn't do anything to that guy now, so we just tolerated it.
Seeing Ma San make a fool of himself, the bandits could not remember that they were going to carry out robbery at this time. Their eyes had already shifted to Ma San, who was covered in mud. Now that kid would feel heartbroken for several days.
The bandits couldn't help but secretly think that they had not noticed the solemn expression on their leader's face.
It was originally a delicate situation, but unexpectedly it was disturbed by a thin man. Of course, the atmosphere was no longer so solemn. Seeing such a funny group of bandits, the two who were standing on horseback were about to be robbed.
Pedestrians couldn't help but smile knowingly.
"Brother Hui, it's really a big deal. Something bad is going to happen." Regardless of the mud all over his body, Ma San ran up and down in front of Leader Ma, looking angry.
An extremely corrupt expression suddenly appeared in front of everyone. At this moment, the leader of Ma San paid attention to the words of the skinny little Ma San who hurriedly came to report the news. The bandits were also startled, they did not expect that they had always been against him.
Ma San, who was wearing a weird costume, actually didn't even take a picture of the mud and dirt on his body, and they couldn't help but feel a faint bad feeling.
The bandits who have always been extremely sensitive to danger will never make mistakes in their sense of danger, and Ma San, who is uncharacteristically hurried to report the news. Ma Chenghui couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart, and a feeling of joy suddenly rose in his heart.
He felt uneasy, but he could no longer care about the two pedestrians on horseback waiting for him to rob him. "What's going on? Damn it, you didn't say anything in the middle. Do you want to piss me off to death?" he yelled hurriedly.
road.
"A group of people came to the cottage, and they were dressed strangely. They were all tall men wearing felt hats. They forcibly occupied the cottage and told Brother Hui to go back quickly. If they didn't go back, they would burn the cottage to the ground.
, and want to kill us all." Then Ma San relaxed his breath, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
"What, who is so bold, even dares to take your idea from Grandpa Ma? I will go back now and see how I deal with them. Let's go, brothers, let's go back to the village." The big leader of the horse took the decent handle.
He raised his sword and roared at the bandits. He completely ignored the two riders on horseback who were stopped by his group of bandits, and rushed towards the mountain. But the bandits also blasted him.
In response, he raised the weapon in his hand and followed the leader of the horse to rush up the mountain.
In the blink of an eye, the strange group of bandits swarmed into the dead grass and leaves in the mountains. After a few turns, they fell into the vast dead forest, without even a shadow being seen.
Only the two riders riding horses were left on the official road with strange expressions on their faces.
"Brother Zhao, I think this matter is a little strange. These bandits don't seem to be a group of powerful bandits. But according to the report from the thin man, someone is plotting against these bandits. Since they are a group of incompetent bandits,
The bandits probably don't have too much money, and the people who are targeting them must have other motives."
The young man in black clothes sitting on a brown horse showed a solemn expression on his face and said to the red-faced man beside him. There seemed to be a faint sadness that had not yet been resolved between the eyebrows of the young man in black clothes, but this was all
He was deeply suppressed by him. There was a certain determination in those star-like eyes. There was a heavy concentration in his eyes, just like the stabbing wound in his heart, which was not revealed.
out.
"Yes, this matter is indeed a bit strange, but the identities of those who are targeting these bandits are not ordinary. Moreover, there are several different forces that have been following us secretly in the past few days. It seems that those thieves are
The people behind this group of bandits should obviously be aiming at us. Listening to the description of the little bandit just now, the identities of those people are already clear, can't Brother Ling still guess the identities of those people?"
The red-faced man next to the young man in black clothes frowned and thought for a while, then answered with a pair of bright tiger eyes. And the long golden stick in his hand couldn't help but hold it tightly until he
The joints of his right hand made creaking sounds, and then he secretly loosened his fingers. Those eyes that seemed to be able to see into the depths of the soul kept looking at the young man in black clothes, with a half-smile on his face.
expression.
"Yes, I have already guessed the identity of that group of people, but what I don't understand is why those people chose to take action here. Moreover, I have a two-year agreement with their third prince, Yelu Zongheng. Could it be that they
It is really unbelievable to break the agreement and take action with the younger brother in advance. Or maybe there is something wrong in this."
Holding the saber in his hand tightly, the young man Xuan also showed some doubts on his face. It was obvious that they had understood the purpose of the person in the dark. But there was still a layer of doubts in it that made people wonder.
Answer. And the horse he sat on couldn't help but make a restless noise, as if an unknown danger was about to come.
"Those people or not, let's go on our way first. Being blocked by this group of bandits also delayed a lot of time. There should be a small town not far away about 20 kilometers ahead. Let's get there.
Take a day's rest in the small town to recuperate enough to face greater dangers."
The red-faced man finally made a decision. There was no better way. Even if they had to follow the bandits to check the situation, they should not act rashly when the enemy's situation was unknown. This decision immediately attracted the attention of the young man in black clothes.
He also felt that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, otherwise changes would occur.
As soon as the two men raised their horse's reins, they immediately started galloping. The two horses, one behind the other, galloped away on the bumpy and dusty official road. The raised hoofs of the horses picked up the dust, and on the official road,
There were clouds of dust and smoke left above.
The boy in black clothes was Ling Tianyun who had escaped from Nadaizhou. After he was rescued, he met the big red man in a small ruined temple to the west of Wutai. Faintly, he felt that the big red-faced man had an extraordinary identity.
, and at the same time, he also saw the sincere pride revealed in the big man. After kneeling in front of his grandfather's grave for three days and three nights, he regained his composure and walked along Mount Wutai with the red-faced big man.
Go all the way east from the west.
On the way together, he learned the name of the red-faced man, whose surname was Zhao and whose first name was Kuangyin. As for his identity, Zhao Kuangyin didn't mention it, and Ling Tianyun didn't ask about it. Everyone has their own identity and secret. For
He didn't care about the identity of the red-faced man, but he thought that the red-faced man was a man worthy of close friendship. It wasn't just that he had been guarding him for three days and three nights, but mainly because he had an awe-inspiring aura about him.
The heroic spirit that impressed him made him sincerely befriend him.
However, we also know that Zhao Kuangyin is not an ordinary imperial guard of the Great Zhou Kingdom. His identity is the sworn brother of the Crown Prince Chai Rong of the Great Zhou Kingdom. It can be said that he is a combination of glory and wealth, but he still sneaks into the territory of the Han Kingdom alone and meets with that
The Guiyi Army secretly plotted to regain the great cause of Yanyun Sixteen Provinces. With such a big heart and such heroic spirit, how could Ling Tianyun not be impressed by this?
