The boy couldn't help being startled, and even the guards around him were surprised.
He immediately drew his sword and immediately surrounded the carriage.
As for my young master, sitting on that strange beast and being protected by six or seven people around him, he can naturally be safe.
I saw this group of robbers crawling out of the woods with embarrassed faces, many of them with scars on their bodies.
Ding Xiaoyi glanced at Song Xingxue, who was sitting on Niulong next to him, with an expression on his face that said he blamed you.
This group of people has been following them for a long time.
If you take a closer look, it's not the same group of people who were drinking in the inn yesterday.
It must have been the gold that Song Xingxue took out that caused the trouble.
You must know that what Bei Lan and the others brought out were small golden beans as big as mung beans, and some even exchanged them for inconspicuous silver in advance.
While being high-profile, try to lower your focus as much as possible.
Compared with Bei Lan and others, Song Xingxue casually took out a shiny gold bar. To outsiders, it seemed that there were four big words on his head: "Foolish people have more money."
Such a shining big fat sheep, anyone would want to snatch him away.
Song Xingxue was also helpless. When he flicked his fan, there were three more words on it: "It's my fault."
Although four or five brothers were killed by the big stone just now, there are currently more than ten people who have no intention of giving up.
"Robbery, hand over the gold, otherwise don't blame us for being ruthless!"
The leader of the robbers wiped a handful of dirt from his face, and his already ferocious face now looked even more sinister.
The boy sitting next to Ding Xiaoyi turned pale. He had been spoiled since childhood and had never seen such a scene.
As if aware of the uneasy mood of the boy on his head, the big head stretched out its tentacles, took out another lollipop and handed it to the boy.
"Woo~~" Upon seeing this, the oxenaurus on the side looked at the boy with an envious expression, and made a low sound in his mouth, trying to please the big head.
Seeing this, Datou simply took out a meat pie and stuffed it into the mouth of the bull dragon.
"Come on, move quickly!"
Naturally, Ding Xiaoyi had no interest in dealing with these little thieves.
It was all left to Bei Lan and others.
The pirates who had been waiting to show off in front of the lady heard this and immediately rushed forward without waiting for Beran to speak.
"Be careful, they are all masters!"
Seeing six people actually facing more than a dozen robbers, the guards guarding the carriage couldn't help but feel nervous. While shouting to be careful, they sent out their hands to support them.
"Looking for death! Come on, brothers!" Seeing that six people were rushing towards him, the leader of the bandits secretly laughed in his heart.
If the other party swarmed them, they might still suffer some losses, but rushing in separately would be tantamount to courting death.
But they saw a cruel sneer on the faces of the six pirates, and they all pulled out pistols from their waists.
The cold muzzle of the gun sprayed out dazzling tongues of fire towards the robbers holding swords.
"Bang bang bang..."
The piercing sound of gunshots kept ringing out, and the robber who rushed up in an instant was splashed with blood, and a hole as big as a thumb appeared in his flesh and blood.
With just one salvo, more than a dozen pirates immediately fell into a pool of blood and lay motionless on the ground forever.
Maybe they didn't understand until their death why a bloody hole appeared in their body as soon as the object in the opponent's hand flashed.
“What kind of hidden weapon is this??”
The bandit leader grabbed his companion next to him and helped block a few shots. A look of horror suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Looking back, I saw that the brothers behind me were dead and wounded, and they were wailing all over the ground.
Suddenly I felt heartbroken.
When the guards on the side saw this, they couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.
They had never seen such a terrifying hidden weapon.
Killing people was easier than cutting wheat. Fortunately, this group of people had no ill intentions toward them, otherwise they would not be their opponents due to their abilities.
However, the six people did not intend to stop. They rode on their mounts and surrounded them with several shots, killing all the remaining pirates.
What? Why not use psionics?
Just kidding, they are pirates who kill without blinking an eye. Isn't it excessive to use guns to kill people?
Of course it's not excessive, it's even natural.
"Don't kill me!!" Seeing that all the brothers around him were slaughtered in just one cup of tea, the mentality of the leader of the bandits completely collapsed.
He was lying on the ground and shouted: "Don't kill me, I know a huge secret!!"
When several pirates heard this, they ignored him and were about to take action when they heard him shout: "I have seen it with my own eyes, a female thief!!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately raised their guns and looked back at Ding Xiaoyi.
Ding Xiaoyi was startled for a moment, the fire of thought flashed on his eyebrows, signaling for him to continue speaking.
A pirate jumped off his mount and stepped forward: "What did you just say??"
"I have seen it. I have seen that female burglar. Just a few days ago, I saw it with my own eyes. And she seemed to be inquiring about some place."
This was originally the secret of his plan to go to the Chu Kingdom and receive the reward, but at this time, he didn't care much in order to save his life.
With the help of the fire of thought, Ding Xiaoyi can judge whether the other party's words are true or false.
He frowned slightly and did not let him continue. Instead, he asked Beilan and the others to take the person aside for questioning.
For this kind of thing, Bei Lan naturally did his part.
He asked a few pirates to take the people to the bushes aside, and immediately heard a scream. After a while, Bei Lan came back at a trot.
He whispered in Ding Xiaoyi's ear: "Master, this guy has actually seen Tuan... that female thief."
Bei Lan originally wanted to call him the leader, but suddenly he remembered that Song Xingxue was there, so he quickly changed his tune.
It turns out that this group of people were originally hunters in the mountains. They usually made a living by hunting and working part-time as bandits.
Not long ago, when they were hunting, the sky suddenly darkened and they saw a dragon-shaped giant ship descending from the clouds.
There were many strange-looking monsters on the dragon ship. A woman holding an ax asked them which direction Kunlun was.
How could they, the mountain villagers, know what Kunlun was? Fortunately, their accompanying companions had vaguely heard of it, so they were lifted onto the boat by the woman like a chicken.
They saw the wanted poster for the female thief in the town and knew they were going to make a fortune.
And after reading Zhang Gu’s new book this morning, I realized that it was the female thief who broke into the house.
In fact, if it hadn't been for last night, when Song Xingxue presented the gleaming gold, it was too tempting, and they should have gone to Chu State today to inform and receive the reward.
"Kunlun...where is that place?" Ding Xiaoyi looked at Beilan, but Beilan and others shook their heads.
As for Song Xingxue, he scratched his head and said he didn't know.
"I know."
At this time, the boy sitting next to him said: "According to legend, Kunlun stretches for thousands of miles and is the number one sacred mountain in the world, the ancestor of all mountains, and the place where the gods live."
When Kunlun was mentioned, the boy immediately found the topic.
After all, that was the holy land he longed for.
I dream of going to Kunlun and writing and drawing all the wonders of Kunlun.
After the boy explained, he remembered something, called the steward of the carriage, and asked him to rummage through the luggage to find a small box.
The box was opened and there was an old parchment scroll inside.
The boy opened the scroll and handed it to himself.
He unfolded it and saw that it was a map.
"You drew this!!" Ding Xiaoyi was a little surprised. The mountains and rivers depicted on the map were very detailed, and the brushwork and ink seemed to be exactly the same as the boy's drawings.
The boy scratched his head in embarrassment and pointed to the largest mountain in the southwest corner on the map.
"This is Kunlun, but what I wrote and painted above is just my imagination based on the descriptions in ancient books. Many places can only be used as a reference."
Being able to draw such a detailed map based solely on ancient book records really makes Ding Xiaoyi feel ashamed.
It's really a case of comparing people to death and comparing goods. The boy looks like he is only eight or nine years old.
Compare this to when I was eight or nine years old, still having a runny nose and playing games...
I feel ashamed just thinking about it.
Some clues also have maps, so the next thing will be much easier to handle.
After Ding Xiaoyi thanked the boy, he ordered him to go down and continue his journey.
The convoy walked through the mountains and forests for nearly a day, until the convoy reached a fork, and the steward of the convoy stepped forward to say that they were leaving.
They want to enter the Qin Kingdom from the side all the way west, while Ding Xiaoyi and others want to continue walking southwest.
"Brother, I have to say goodbye today. I don't know when I will see you again, but what I said is right. When traveling around, you need to learn martial arts well. Ling Zhi should remember this, and he hasn't asked his name yet."
The boy raised his hands above his head and said goodbye to Ding Xiaoyi.
Ding Xiaoyi had a good impression of the boy. He smiled and asked Datou to take out a bunch of lollipops and give them to the boy. He whispered in the boy's ear: "Don't tell them, my name is Ding Xiaoyi."
The boy was startled, and then looked at him blankly. After all, Zhang Gu's new work has had such a huge impact. Nowadays, no one in the world knows the name Ding Xiaoyi.
The boy was stunned for a while before he smiled and said: "I know, brother, take care of yourself along the way."
"Take care of yourself!!"
The big head waved its tentacles and said goodbye to the boy.
The group of people gradually moved away until they disappeared from the boy's sight.
At this time, the woman in the carriage slowly stepped out of the carriage.
The woman is very beautiful, and she looks like she is only twenty-six or seventeen years old.
He strolled to the boy's side, looked up at the direction where Ding Xiaoyi and others disappeared, and then said: "This man is wanted by the Chu State and is a thief. Why not capture him and hand him over to the Qin State."
I saw the boy casually swiping the brush in his hand, and the guards and stewards around him turned into black ink in an instant, and were all put into the inkstone by the boy.
"What does this have to do with me? King Qin invited me to paint, not to fight. Besides, I am just a child. My goal is to travel around the world. Why do I do those things of fighting and killing."
As he spoke, the boy waved the brush in his hand and lightly splashed ink. In an instant, a big-headed man who looked exactly like Big-head appeared out of thin air.
Both his appearance and demeanor are almost impeccable.
Only his eyes seemed a little lackluster.
"Hey, look, how rewarding this journey has been."
The boy shook the lollipop in his hand, jumped on Big Tou's head, clapped his hands gently, and ordered Big Tou to take him and the woman towards the direction of Qin.
