Duan silently exited the tent and took a deep breath of fresh air, but he couldn't figure out the chaos in his mind. He was increasingly unable to understand what kind of person Xuan Yue was. She was hot and cold, and she was mad at him all at once. Temper, but after a while he seemed to care about himself.
"Brother Dumb, come in and sleep quickly, we have to go on the road tomorrow morning." The one who spoke was Yue Hen, who was smiling at Dumb.
The tent is very small, with the figures of Yuehen and Dumb, and is indeed a bit cramped inside. Yuehen sat cross-legged and said, "Brother Dumb, how old are you this year?"
Duan lifted the cloak on his head and said: "I am seventeen years old. Brother Yuehen, how about you?"
Yuehen said: "I am two years older than you. I am nineteen this year. My sister is ten." Eight, we can all be said to be of the same age. What do you think of our trip to the Death Mountain?"
Dumb was stunned, shook his head and said, "I just want to get a magic crystal to give back. Just a teacher.”
Yuehen said: "I think your relationship with Miss Xuanyue seems to be very strange. How did you meet?"
Ah-Dai sighed and said: "Brother Yuehen, don't ask. , It’s hard to say! You meditated, and I started meditating too.” After saying that, he sat cross-legged and closed his eyes.
Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Yuehen shook his head helplessly and began to practice his fighting spirit.
Duan meditated for a while, and saw that Yue Hen had fallen into trance, and then turned to practice to generate Zhenqi. Since Xuan Yue didn't want Yue Hen and others to know that she knew martial arts, she had to let her go.
There was no talk all night, and everyone continued to set off early the next morning, heading towards the territory of the Puyan tribe. After trekking all morning, they finally arrived at another city of the Honghu tribe at the middle of the day. , this city is obviously much larger, and most of the residents are from the Red Hurricane tribe. After Xuan Yue's repeated requests, they bought a large carriage and two horses for pulling the carriage. When paying, Xuan Yue was only willing to pay fifty gold coins, while a single carriage cost as much as 100 gold coins. Yuehen seemed to have a lot of money, so he paid the other money without arguing. The worst thing was Dui. Xuan Yue confiscated all his property on the grounds that he had no use for the money. Of course, it was put into Xuan Yue's pocket. After lunch, drive from Wanli and continue moving forward.
With the carriage, the forward speed increased a lot. Two days later, they finally entered the territory of the Puyan tribe.
Although the carriage was a little bumpy, it was much easier than walking. However, because of the bumps, Yue Hen and others did not dare to meditate and practice, so they had nothing to do and chatted. After a few days of getting along, they got to know each other a lot. Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue learned that Yue Hen and Yue Ji were the children of a nobleman from the Red Hurricane Tribe. They were under strict control at home. Like Xuan Yue, they were also thefts. Those who ran away only went home once or twice a year. Although they were young, they already had three years of mercenary experience. The Moonhen Mercenary Group was only established last year. Since the mercenary profession is very popular among the Red Hurricane tribe, their parents saw that they had gained some fame and no longer restricted their actions. Yue Hen's Yueying Sword Technique was passed down from his family, and Yue Ji's archery skills were learned from his mother. Both of them have good strength.
What was more surprising to Dui was that Xuan Yue did not brag about his identity to Yuehen and the others, but only said that he had learned light magic from an unknown magician for several years. In the past few days, Xuan Yue had kept a low profile. Apart from asking Yue Hen about some novel things on the mainland, she had not mentioned a word about her origins.
"Xuan Yue, it turns out that traveling in a carriage is so easy. You have done a good thing this time!" Yue Ji said sarcastically. After getting along for a few days, the relationship between Yue Ji and Xuan Yue has never changed. They are always tit for tat, as if they had a grudge.
Xuan Yue snorted and said, "You only know now! Ah-Dai, why are you so far away from me? I'm sleepy. Lend me your shoulder to lean on."
Ah-Dai was startled and hurriedly He hid aside and said, "Miss, it's not good for men and women to be close to each other."
Miao Fei chuckled and said, "Miss Xuanyue, he doesn't want you to get close to me, so I'll let you get close to him. How is it?”
Xuan Yue glared at him and said: "You are so thin, I don't want to rely on you. Ah-Dai, come here quickly!" As she said that, she moved towards Ah-Dai.
The carriage only had a small space, so Ah-Dai had no choice but to let her come over. Under the envious gazes of Miao Fei and Yue Hen, Xuan Yue leaned on Ah-Dai's shoulder and closed her eyes. She didn't know why, but as soon as she leaned on Ati's strong shoulder, her sleepiness naturally increased, and she fell asleep in a short time.
Xuan Yue fell asleep, but Dui was so miserable that he sat upright and dared not move. Not only did he have to bear Yue Ji's strange eyes, he also had to maintain the balance of his body.
Xuan Yue gradually fell into a deep sleep. Her hands had already hugged Ah-Dai's arms, with a satisfied look on her face. Looking at Xuan Yue's peaceful sleeping face, feeling the softness and warmth brought by her delicate body, Ah-Dai's eyes revealed A touch of tenderness.
Since it was noon, the sultry weather made everyone feel drowsy, and their consciousness was in a state of confusion.
Suddenly, the advancing carriage suddenly stopped for a moment, and with a sound from Xijingjin, it seemed that Wanli had forcibly pulled the horse back. The violent shaking woke everyone up, and Xuan Yue's body couldn't help but slip into Dumb's arms in the shock. Xuan Yue woke up from her trance and asked blankly: "What's wrong?"
Ah-Dai was afraid that Xuan Yue would misunderstand that he was taking advantage of her, so he hurriedly righted her body and said, "I don't know what happened. The carriage seemed to have stopped suddenly."
Miao Fei had already jumped out, Yuehen He Yueji also floated out, leaving Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue alone in the carriage. Dumb said: "Miss, I'll go down and have a look too."
Xuan Yue yawned and said: "I'm so sleepy, I still want to sleep, your shoulders are so comfortable, don't go, they can It’s solved.” After saying that, he hugged Dumb’s arm and closed his eyes again.
Dumb had no choice but to concentrate his ears and listen to the movement outside. There seemed to be many people outside. A strange voice shouted: "Who are you and what are you doing in the territory of our Puyan tribe?"
< br> Yuehen said gently: "Brothers, soldiers, please come. We are members of the Yuehen mercenary group. We are going to the Tianyuan clan. We will pass through the noble territory and borrow the road."
The strange voice snorted and said: "I don't care if you are mercenaries or not. If you want to go to the Tianyuan Clan, immediately change the route and take a detour. You are not allowed to pass through the territory of our Puyan Clan."
Duan was shocked, this Puyan tribe was so unreasonable, couldn't they even pass by their territory?
Yuehen was not angry because of the other party's indifference, and still said gently: "Brother soldier, please be accommodating. If we take a detour now, we will have to walk at least ten more days. Everyone. We are from the Solo Federation. Just for convenience, we promise not to stop in the noble territory and pass through as soon as possible. Do you think that’s okay?”
“Huh, I’ve seen people like you a lot, so don’t get too close to me. Who is your big brother? Leave immediately, otherwise, we will have to rush you.”
Yue Ji's angry voice sounded, "You are too unreasonable. Why don't you let us pass? We insist on passing, let's see what you can do."
The voice of the golden wind sounded, as if the other party's Everyone took out their weapons, and Ah-Dai hurriedly shook Xuan Yue up and said, "Miss, it seems like there's going to be a fight outside. You rest here while I go out and take a look."
Xuan Yue muttered dissatisfiedly. , lying on the bench of the carriage and continuing to have her sweet dream.
Duan floated down from the carriage, hid aside and looked outside. This is a tree-lined avenue with a very flat road, surrounded by large trees dozens of meters high, with dense branches and leaves, and the sunlight can only fall on the ground through the gaps. In front of the carriage, the Yue Hen brothers and sisters, Miao Fei and Wan Li stood in a row. Opposite them was a group of light cavalry of about twenty people. They just took out the sabers from their waists and glared at Yuehen and the other four people with a menacing look.
Yuehen said loudly: "Everyone, we are serious mercenaries. Don't you Puyan tribe have mercenaries? You are just taking advantage of the road and you treat us like this. We, the Red Hurricane tribe, are not good either. Bullying."
The leader of the knight snorted and said: "Red Hurricane Clan? Apart from a few crappy mercenaries, what else do you have? Let me see what you have today? Kung Fu, as long as any of you can defeat the long sword in my hand, I will let you pass."
His words completely aroused Yuehen's anger, and Yuehen said coldly: "Okay, then I will see what is so great about your Puyan tribe. Little sister, you guys stand back." After saying that, he drew out the long sword he was carrying. , staring at the knight on the horse.
The Puyan knight turned over and dismounted, and Dui was surprised to find that this knight was half a head taller than him. As soon as he got off the horse, his whole body suddenly exuded a strong aura. He put a sword over four feet long on his shoulders and walked towards Yuehen step by step. With every step he took, his momentum suddenly became stronger, locking firmly on Yue Hen.
Yuehen held the sword in his chest, with a solemn expression on his face. He did not expect that he would meet such a master here.
"Puyan tribe Yan Yan asked for advice. Look at the knife." With a loud shout, the yellow fighting spirit on Yan Yan suddenly broke out, holding the knife in both hands, and rushed towards Yuehen with a tragic momentum.
Ah-Dai was shocked, because the move used on this rock was very similar to the chopping in his Tiangang Sword Technique.
Yuehen was not attracted by the opponent's aura, and the silver sword in his hand was tilted, pointing at the opponent's blade. With a soft ding sound, Yuehen's silver sword accurately hit the opponent's blade five inches away. The silver light flashed and he forcefully removed the opponent's long knife aside. But because the force on the rock knife was too strong, he was still shocked and took two steps back.
The rock refused to give in, and slashed at Yuehen three times in a row like lightning. His fighting spirit was overflowing, and even Dui beside the carriage could clearly feel the huge strong wind. Yuehen's strength was obviously not as good as his opponent's. His body was erratic and he used his own Moon Shadow Sword Technique to deal with the opponent. For a moment, a strong wind blew, and two figures, one yellow and one silver, kept intersecting and colliding. Yuehen is much stronger than his opponent in terms of flexibility, but his fighting spirit seems to be much worse than that of the rock. Under the overwhelming momentum of the rock, it is very difficult to support him. Every time the silver sword and the long knife come into contact, his whole body will tremble. .
With a loud clang, Yuehen staggered three steps, and a piece of the silver armor on his shoulders had been swept off by the opponent's blade, obviously at a disadvantage.
The rock pointed the tip of the knife slantingly and said disdainfully: "I told you that you can't do it before, but you still don't believe it. Leave our Puyan tribe's territory immediately, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Yue Hen knew that he was the strongest among the mercenary group, and if he couldn't even defeat the other party, there was nothing he could do.
Miao Fei and Wan Li both drew out their weapons and stood guard on both sides of Yue Hen. Yue Ji's silver arrow had already been caught on the bow string, and the knights on the horse had also jumped down to watch them one by one. With his neat skills, he was obviously not weak in strength. In terms of momentum, Yue Hen and others were immediately at a disadvantage.
"It's annoying, disturbing others' sleep. Dumb, what are you doing standing here? Let's go and see who is so arrogant." It turned out that Xuan Yue got out of the carriage. It was so noisy outside, how could she sleep in the carriage? She had been looking through the gap in the carriage for a long time, and only came out when she saw the moon marks falling behind.
Dui helped Xuan Yue get out of the carriage. Xuan Yue rubbed her sleepy eyes and shouted: "Yuehen, what's wrong? Who is so blind and blocking our way!"
Hearing Xuan Yue's words At the sound of the voice, all the knights immediately turned their gazes over, and a look of surprise flashed in Rock's eyes, "Magician?"
Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue walked to Yue Hen's side, Xuan Yue looked up at Rock, She said softly: "Why are you so tall? You want me to look up."
When Shi Yan lowered his head, he happened to see Xuan Yue's beautiful face. Even with his firm determination, he couldn't help but froze and murmured: "It's none of your business to be tall."
Xuan Yue hummed. He made a sound and said: "Why are you stopping us? I heard what you just said. As long as we can beat you, let us pass. Dumb, you teach him a lesson."
Dumb was stunned and said: "Me?" After looking at Rock's performance just now, he was not sure of winning at all.
Xuan Yue said angrily: "Of course it's you. Why don't you let me go up? Hurry up and send them away so we can get on our way."
A'Dai responded, stepped forward and stood In front of the rock.
The rock was unsure. He had never fought a magician. He had only heard that the magician was very powerful. He didn’t know if he could deal with it. He cautiously crossed the long sword and said, "Then come. .”
Xuan Yue said behind Ah-Dai: "Show him the skill you used to split the wall that day."
Although Ah-Dai didn't understand why Xuan Yue didn't use him to cover up his martial arts skills, he still pulled out the Tiangang behind him. sword. Yuehen saw all this and didn't stop him. He had long been suspicious of Ah-Dai's epee, so he took this opportunity to take a look. .
The rock looked surprised when he saw Ah-Dai's Tiangang Sword, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but he still raised his long sword.
Ah-Dai suddenly felt his whole body feel warm for no reason, and his energy was boosted. He seemed to have endless power. A layer of faint white light enveloped his body. This was not his fighting spirit, because he didn't have any luck yet, so he couldn't help but turn around. Glancing at Xuan Yue, he saw that Xuan Yue was fiddling with the magic wand in her hand and making a face at him. The white light was obviously related to her and should be a kind of auxiliary magic.
The rock shouted in a deep voice: "Please advise." Still holding the knife with both hands, he slashed hard at Ah-Dai.
Ah-Dai didn’t care about that. Although he didn’t have much combat experience, he was most familiar with this kind of slashing. He shouted loudly, picked up the Tiangang Sword with both hands, and slashed at the opponent as well. The white fighting spirit suddenly became brighter, and the latter came first to greet him. With a loud bang, the rock's long knife and the Tiangang Sword suddenly collided together, and the fighting spirit of the two immediately stirred up a small vortex in the dust on the ground.
Dui felt that his fighting spirit seemed to be much stronger than before. This was not only because the Sheng Sheng Jue had reached the fifth level, but a large part of it was because of the white light that appeared first.
Rock felt a huge force coming from the opponent's sword, and couldn't help but take a step back. He has always been known for his strength, but he has never been knocked back by his opponent. Especially, the person who knocked him back was actually a magician. The master roared angrily and struck with the long sword again. This time, he had used all his strength.
When Ah-Dai was in Shitang Town, he faced the waves every day. He did not know how many times he used the chop. The fighting energy in his body was constantly transmitted into his arm, and he slashed out again. The sound of clang, clang, clang kept sounding, and both Dumb and the rock kept chopping at each other almost without moving. This was completely a contest of strength.
After more than a dozen collisions, Ah-Dai gradually gained the upper hand. After all, the endless supply of vitality prevented him from being exhausted. Ah-Dai also had an advantage on the weapon. His Tiangang Sword was much heavier than the opponent's long knife. Finally, at the eighteenth collision, the rock's long knife was cut off by Ah-Dai, and the Tiangang Sword carried the force with it. The man's fighting spirit hit the rock head-on, and Ah-Dai was startled. He didn't want to kill anyone. The many collisions made him feel pity for the rock. He understood that if it weren't for Xuan Yue's magic, he might not be able to take advantage of it in terms of power. It's cheap, not to mention that Rock and Yuehen had a fight just now, which took a lot of energy. He turned his wrist fiercely, took a step to the right with his right foot, barely brought the Tiangang Sword aside, and slashed it into the soil with a bang. The forced change of moves under the full attack immediately put a huge load on Ah-Dai's body. His chest felt like being hit by a giant hammer, his throat sweetened, and he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
The rock was stunned for a long time. He had never felt that death could be so close to him. Looking at the Tiangang Sword that was mostly cut into the soil, he knew clearly that if this sword struck him, What would be the consequences? As soon as he loosened his grip, half of the long knife fell to the ground.
Xuan Yue ran to Ah-Dai and asked urgently: "How are you?"
Duan coughed twice, took the Tiangang Sword, supported his body, and said: "I'm fine."
Xuan Yue sang in a low voice: "Great God! Please use your divine power of compassion for the world Use me to heal the wounds in front of you. Divine Healing Technique." As the spell was chanted, a ball of white light was produced on the magic wand, and the light flashed into Ah-Dai's body.
A warm feeling suddenly filled Ah-Dai's meridians. His vitality had a certain sacred aura. Xuan Yue's light magic entered his body and immediately stimulated his own vitality, making his chest feel comfortable. A lot.
After taking a long breath, Ah-Dai nodded to Xuan Yue and said, "Thank you, miss."
The Puyan soldiers who came with the rock all jumped off their horses one by one, guarded the rock, and held their hands high Saber looked menacing, as if he was about to strike at any moment.
Ah-Dai raised his head and looked at the rock. The rock was still in a sluggish state, as if he couldn't believe that he would fail. "Brother, I don't know if your words count as magic, but you can let us go now." Ah-Dai said very politely, with a faint smile on his face. The sword just now scared him a lot, and finally He was sincerely happy that the rock was not hurt.
Yan Yan was awakened by Ah-Dai's voice. There was an embarrassed look on his face, and he said to Ah-Dai: "Brother, you are really skilled. Thank you for your mercy. Yan Yan has admitted defeat. Can I ask you, the weapon you used is the Tiangang Sword. "?"
Ah-Dai nodded and said, "It's the Tiangang Sword."
A hint of joy flashed in Shi Yan's eyes, and he walked towards Ah-Dai, and Wan Li hurriedly stepped forward to block it. In front of Dui, he looked at the rock warily and said, "What are you going to do?"
Shi Yan spread his hands, and the previous arrogance and domineering were gone, and he said kindly: "I don't mean any harm, I just want to say a few words to this brother."
Xuan Yue came to Ah-Dai's side and said : "What's there to say? Ah-Dai has already defeated you. It's time for us to pass. Our time is very tight."
The rock looked at Xuan Yue, then at Ah-Dai, and said: "Brother , my name is Yan Yan. When I was young, I was taught by Teacher Xi Wen, the eldest disciple of the Tiangang Sword Master, for a few days. Speaking of which, we are still from the same sect. I really have no ill intentions. Since you are related to the Tiangang Sect, it should not be Bad guys can pass through our territory.”
Ah-Dai was stunned and said: "It turns out that Brother Yan is also from the Tiangang Sword Sect! My uncle is too, my name is Ah-Dai, and my Tiangang Sword was taught to me by my uncle. Brother Yan, let's go first."
The rock chuckled and said: "In this way, our Puyan clan members inside and outside the country can say that it is difficult to move even an inch, so I will escort you for a while."
The sudden changes made Yue Hen and Yue Ji a little nervous It was difficult to adapt, Yue Ji snorted coldly: "Who knows what kind of peace of mind you have, entering your territory, will you not let you slaughter it?"
Yan Yan said angrily: "I swear as the son of the leader of the Puyan tribe, I, Yan Yan, have absolutely no duplicity." They were shocked. They never expected that the big man in front of them was the son of the leader of the Puyan tribe, one of the six major races in the Suoyu Federation.
Xuan Yue played with the magic wand in her hand and said nonchalantly: "Who cares whose son you are? If you want to go together, just leave. Brother Yuehen, let's get in the car." After that, he turned around and walked towards the carriage. go. .
"Brother Ah-Dai." Yan Yan stopped Ah-Dai, who was about to get into the carriage with Xuan Yue, and said, "Let's ride together. I have something to ask you."
Ah-Dai turned to look at Xuan Yue, Xuan Yue He glanced at the rock and said: "Go, go, if your injury is damaged, I don't care about you. Humph." After that, he got on the carriage.
Rock chuckled, asked one of his men to give up his mount to Dumb, and shouted, "Brothers, the road is open ahead."
This was Ah-Dai's first time riding a horse, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. When he first got on the horse, the tall horse couldn't help but swayed. It weighed more than a hundred kilograms, plus the weight of the Tiangang Sword, and it was indeed a bit heavy. Dumb grabbed the reins tightly and clamped the horse's belly tightly with his legs. He had an embarrassed look on his face because his horse stayed in place and did not move forward at all.
Looking at Ah-Dai's posture, Yan Yan knew that he could not ride a horse, and smiled: "What? Brother Ah-Dai, is this your first time riding a horse?"
A-Dai nodded with a red face. .
Shi Yan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. In fact, riding a horse is very simple. My brother will teach you a few tricks. Don't be so stiff all over, relax a little, lean forward, and lightly knock the horse's belly, it will move forward, yes, yes, That's it. Don't tighten the reins too tightly, otherwise the horse will feel uncomfortable. Look, isn't this good? When turning, your body should be tilted in that direction, and then lead gently. Then the horse will listen to your command. When you want it to stop, sit back and hold the reins with both hands."
Adai did as the rock said. Sure enough, the horse under his crotch was driven, and it slowly began to accelerate, bumping and bumping, and the feeling was very wonderful.
Yue Hen and others had already got on the carriage. As soon as they got on the carriage, Miao Fei couldn't wait to ask Xuan Yue: "Miss Xuan Yue, why haven't I heard you say that Dumb knows martial arts before?"
Xuan Yue glared at him and said, "Do we still need to tell you what we are capable of? Who said that Ah-Dai knows martial arts? He is just a little stronger."
Yuehen and others have been practicing for many years. His martial arts skills, when Ah-Dai and Rock fought just now, the momentum and skill displayed were more than just greater strength, especially the faint white fighting spirit, which was the symbol of a master of martial arts. Yue Hen grabbed Yue Ji who was about to ask and shook her head gently. Miao Fei felt bored and stopped asking any more questions. Xuan Yue leaned on the back of the chair and fell asleep again. For a while, the carriage fell into silence, with only the sound of the wheels rolling and the crisp sound of the horse's hooves hitting the ground.
After a while, Ah-Dai has simply adapted to some simple riding movements, and with the help of rocks, he can already follow him.
Yan Yan led Ah-Dai at the front, and told his men not to follow too close, and then said: "Brother Ah-Dai, thank you so much for your mercy just now, otherwise, eh..."
Ah-Dai scratched his head. , said: "Brother Yan Yan, don't say that. We don't have any deep hatred. How could I hurt you? We really just want to pass through the noble territory."
Yan Yan nodded and said: " It's all my fault for being too impulsive, but our Puyan tribe has always been somewhat hostile to other races on the mainland, so that's why the previous scene happened. But since you have to be passed on to the Tiangang Sword Sect, there will naturally be no problem. The Tiangang Sword Sect is synonymous with justice! Oh, by the way, brother, this is for you." As he said this, Shi Yan took out a longan-sized pill and handed it to Ah-Dai.
Duan stretched out his hand to take it and asked: "Brother Yan Yan, what is this?"
Yan Yan chuckled and said, "Brother, eat it quickly. This is the secret healing medicine of our Puyan tribe. Dan, it’s very effective. Just now you made a temporary change to avoid hurting me, and you vomited blood again. The internal injuries must be serious. If you take it, you don’t have to worry. You won’t be able to get out for half a day.”< br>
A-Dai put the injury-killing pill to his nose and smelled it, thought for a while, and said: "Brother Yan Yan, this injury-killing pill is very precious! It contains the ingredients of star grass, tonic fruit, and blue flower. They are all very expensive medicinal materials, do you really want to give them to me?" After staying with Coris for a year, Ah-Dai could already distinguish medicinal materials by their smell.
Shi Shi was stunned and said: "Brother, I didn't expect you to know about medicinal materials! Only the prophets of the tribe know the exact formula of the injury-killing pill, but the ingredients you mentioned seem to be there. You were injured because of me. Yes, eat it, it will be of great benefit to your injuries."
A-Dai nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Rock." After saying that, he opened the wax coat on the wound-killing pill. Eat it.
The rock laughed and said: "Brother, don't be polite to me. To be honest, I really admire your skills. At this age, there are really few people of your age who can beat me. . You are the first one. I was so arrogant in the past. I am still scared when I think of your last sword."
After taking the injury-killing pill, a stream of heat immediately flowed to the Dantian, instantly spreading all over the body. The warmth was indescribably comfortable. The pain in the chest completely disappeared. Under the stimulation of the medicine, the vitality in the body became more concentrated. Dumb. After adjusting his breath slightly, he said: "The Injury-Destroying Pill is really powerful. My injuries are almost healed. Brother Yan, in fact, my strength is not as good as yours. It's just that the Tiangang Sword is heavier than yours. In addition, "Miss Xuan Yue may have blessed me with auxiliary magic, so I won against you."
