Chapter 43: Bandits of Taihang Mountain
Chapter 43: Bandits of Taihang Mountain
Huo Yun lay comfortably in the carriage and fell asleep, and bursts of snoring came from the carriage, completely unaware of Shangguan Tian's experience.
If he heard the news, he would be very surprised. He originally wanted to have a try, but he didn't expect to be hit by him.
The carriage muttered forward, and A Da'er rode a horse and followed the back of the carriage. The wheels pressed across the land, leaving a deep trace, and birds flew through the sky from time to time.
The horse's hoof made a rattling sound on the ground.
A Da touched his bald head and said to A Er beside him.
"Second brother, you said that the scenery is really good," he said and looked at the surrounding mountains.
A Er didn't say a word, touched the scabbard with his left hand, looked at the sky, and walked forward with a horse's belly.
"Young master, wake up"!
"What's the matter? Huo Yun opened his awake eyes, opened the curtain and said to the outside.
A Er looked at the front and said, "There is a canyon in front of the young master. According to the information we have received in the past, it has always been a gathering place for bandits, so we'd better be careful."
Huo Yun couldn't help but be shocked to hear that there was a bandit, and the only sleepiness completely dissipated and looked forward.
A deep path appeared in front of Huo Yun, surrounded by hundreds of feet of cliffs. There are all kinds of low shrubs growing on the cliff. Occasionally, you can see a bird flying out of the bush, and in front of the path is a lush tree.
The clouds above the canyon fluctuate, transforming into various shapes from time to time, like a flying chain, and like a graceful dancer waving a long ribbon, graceful and colorful.
The sunlight at noon adds a bright atmosphere to the clouds.
"Is there any way to go around!" Seeing this scene, Huo Yun couldn't help frowning.
A Er shook his head and said:
"This is a necessary route to Hu County. There is no road to go around. Even if there is a circle now, it will take a very long time. I'm afraid it will take more ten days to bypass it."
"So much!"
Xiao Ding!
Little Ding, who was driving a carriage, suddenly replied, "What can I do for the young master?"
"When you get to the canyon, hurry up, and there may be bandits there."
Huo Yun looked at it. Since he can't avoid it, let's go there. We won't have such bad luck!
Hearing that there were bandits, Xiaoding was shocked and hurriedly said, "Yes."
A Er saw that the young master had made a decision and walked away silently, but at this time he walked to the front of the carriage.
A Da also heard their conversation. Hearing that the bandit's face suddenly changed, his hands holding the sword couldn't help tightening a little. He concentrated his spirit and consciously followed the carriage. The original simple man suddenly disappeared and was replaced by toughness all over his body.
Huo Yun skimmed A Er and felt that this A Er was not as simple as he thought. He also asked him for a lot of swordsmanship these days, but in A Er's words, "I'm not a material for martial arts at all."
Huo Yun himself didn't care much about it. He practiced swords just to protect himself. After all, after experiencing that lesson, he also had a profound pursuit of strength. Moreover, this swordsmanship can't be practiced well in a day or two. His obvious feeling My swordsmanship is much better than before.
These are all his credit, which further deepened Huo Yun's doubts. Why is his swordsmanship so high that he is just a guard? He heard from his father that he had been to war in the desert before, and the people who climbed out of the pile of dead couldn't help but feel a trace of awe for him.
For Ah Dahuoyun, he knows that he is also a thick and thin figure, otherwise his father would not have sent him to protect himself.
The carriage grunted forward.
It's just a particularly depressing atmosphere. Occasional breeze blows, the curtains shake, and the surroundings are quiet. Only the sound of the carriage and the horse's hoofs can be heard. Sometimes the dark horse pulling the cart can be heard gasping.
Huo Yun sat in the carriage and held the sword in both hands. This sword saved his life last time. The coolness came from the sword body, which made Huo Yun's heart more stable.
Huo Yun took his burden in his hand and couldn't help smiling at the corners of his mouth. This time, he still prepared something to protect himself.
Pepper, lime, rope and so on, even the two bottles of medicine you gave yourself by Huo Yuan have brought on your body. Since the last time it was used on Shangguantian, Huo Yun has a new view of these drugs. This thing is actually a good weapon and a good weapon. Huo Yun can't help thinking about it secretly.
A silk hand appeared in front of Huo Yun.
Gently picked it up with his hand. This was given to him by Xiaoyun that night, and there was still a faint fragrance on it. Huo Yun couldn't help sniffing, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.
The silk handkerchief is embroidered with water-playing mandarin ducks, and the embroidery color is exquisite and touching. Looking at this pair of mandarin ducks, Huo Yun couldn't help thinking about the madness of leaving the night before. "This girl must be in a daze now, Huo Yun secretly said."
shook her head vigorously. How long has it been since I left Xiaoyun? I actually thought of that. It seems that she is not attached to me but to him. Next time I go out, I must bring her to my side.
Huo Yun was thinking nonsense when he suddenly leaned forward.
Huo Yun tightened his heart and lifted the curtain and asked, "What's wrong?"
But the next moment, I was stunned.
More than 30 people suddenly appeared in the jungle in front of them. They were wearing coarse clothes, some even bare arms, revealing their tough muscles, and various weapons. Some have swords, some with hammers, some with sticks, some with knives and so on.
What surprised Huo Yun most was that someone took the rake.
Looking into the jungle, the careful Huo Yun can see a trace of faint light shining in the jungle. The direction of the faint light is Huo Yun's carriage. If you count carefully, there are no less than 30 faint lights, that is to say, there are still more than 30 people hiding in the jungle. This does not add people who have not appeared. If you add fear I'm afraid there are not a hundred people.
Huo Yun's cold sweat all over his body, wouldn't he fall here! Thinking of this, Huo Yun couldn't help regretting that he should not have refused Huo Guang's kindness at the beginning. If he had brought the 50 guards, he would have been able to get through this situation easily, but I'm afraid it's a little difficult now.
For a long time, Huo Yun's heart was flat. In this case, he had to pull a few cushions. If he pulled one enough money, he would earn one by pulling two, but he was sorry for his parents.
Thinking of Huo Yun's parents in this life, they suddenly felt warm. Although they were not their real parents, they have regarded them as their relatives not long after occupying Huo Yun's body.
"If you survive, you will definitely honor them in the future"
Huo Yun opened the curtain in front of him and got off the carriage.
