Chapter 77 Heading north, repairing and blocking the road
Zheng Guo, Anzhou.
On the official road that leads directly to the north, a cloud-turning horse is running briskly.
Jiang Sheng sat cross-legged on Fanyunju's back, closed his eyes and adjusted his breath, letting the horse play happily without moving an inch.
In the days since he came out of Pingyuan County, Jiang Sheng specially bought a cloud-turning horse in Linxian County and rode it like the people of Zheng.
At the moment, Jiang Sheng has changed out of his white clothes and into a simple green robe, with his hair tied in a bun, looking very casual.
Departing from Pingyuan County, Jiang Sheng rode north all the way, looking at the scenery along the way and seeing the ordinary joys.
While walking and walking, Jiang Sheng had arrived at the Anzhou border. After passing the pass in front, he entered Jingzhou.
Fan Yunju also saw the pass ahead, snorted excitedly, and started running wildly with his hooves.
After all, he is a pony with the blood of demon spirits, and he is very understanding of human nature.
Every time he encountered a city pass along the way, Jiang Sheng would ask people to take good care of the foal, so the horse also knew that he could eat well and drink well at the city pass.
In the eyes of passers-by, this combination of man and horse can be said to be very strange.
But thinking that next spring will be a grand event, passers-by didn’t take it to heart.
Since the imperial court advertised across the country and announced that a grand event will be held next year, countless capable people and strangers from all over the country, whether it is casual cultivators or children of aristocratic families, have rushed to Zhengdu.
At present, I don’t know how many people are going to Zhengdu, wanting to show their faces in front of the emperor, and vividly display the words of selling their civil and martial arts to the emperor’s family.
Thinking about it this way, Jiang Sheng's behavior doesn't seem so strange anymore.
Arrived in front of the pass, Jiang Sheng dismounted and led the horses into the city.
In the past, we flew over every town, but in the Zheng Kingdom, flying over the pass towns was not allowed, so Jiang Sheng just followed the local customs.
“This young master is going to Zhengdu?” asked the guarding officer in front of the pass.
Jiang Sheng was a little confused: "May I ask, what about going to Zhengdu? What if you don't go to Zhengdu?"
The customs guard laughed and said, "My lord, I have misunderstood. The imperial court has issued an order recently. Those who go to Zhengdu do not need to be charged for customs clearance; those who do not go to Zhengdu will be charged as usual."
Jiang Sheng nodded: "I see, I have to go to Zhengdu."
"Please pay me two pieces of spiritual stone." The guarding officer didn't waste any words.
Jiang Sheng took out two spiritual stones and handed them to the guards, and then led his horse into the pass.
The pass is an unusual city. It is mainly composed of military camps, and there is also a stable, a weapon refining workshop, and an alchemy workshop each.
Although there are inns for people to rest, they do not provide alcohol, but the food is good.
Jiang Sheng has not eaten common food, wine, meat or meat since he was a child. He only drinks tea, mainly fruits, vegetables and rice.
When I arrived at the Foundation Establishment Realm, I basically went without food. In addition to some spiritual fruits and spiritual tea, Lin Fan occasionally brought some spiritual wine over and Jiang Sheng had a few drinks.
After entering the inn, Jiang Sheng asked for a guest room, asked the waiter to take care of Fan Yunju, and then went back to the room to rest and meditate.
In the middle of the night, there was a sudden roar from behind the inn, followed by several screams.
Jiang Sheng's eyelids trembled slightly while he was meditating on the bed, and then he continued to practice his exercises. However, there was a lot of excitement behind the inn, and it took half an hour for him to regain calm.
The next morning, Jiang Sheng went downstairs and saw the waiter coming up to him: "Sir, your horse is so powerful. You helped us catch several horse thieves last night."
"In this pass, with the army on its side, who dares to steal horses?" Jiang Sheng asked.
The waiter explained: "Isn't this a grand event held in Zhengdu? Many people want to go to Zhengdu, but there are only a few who have money, those who lack money, and those who are too far away to make it, start Use your brain."
"Actually, horse stealing is not bad. Some people don't have money, so they just rob the road outside. Sir, you have to be careful, even if it's an official road, it's closer. Every day is not peaceful.”
Jiang Sheng nodded: "That's it, thank you for telling me."
Leading Fanyunju out of the pass, Jiang Sheng got on the horse, and Fanyunju started running happily. The pass behind it was only a moment away. It disappeared into the dust.
Arrived in Jingzhou, Jiang Sheng allowed Fan Yunju to run wildly. As he ran, Fanyunju suddenly slowed down on his own, and finally changed to small steps.
Jiang Sheng looked up and saw a carriage overturning on the road ahead. The ground was a mess. A white jade hand with a jade bracelet appeared from the carriage, asking for help.
As if I heard the sound of horse hooves, a woman's soft and plaintive voice came from the carriage: "Save people, save people, but there are kind-hearted people coming to save people."
Fan Yunju shook his big head and walked towards him with small steps.
Just as he was about to get closer, someone suddenly shouted: "Don't come forward, it's a trap!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a female cultivator standing in front of Fan Yunju. , looking at the carriage ahead warily: "That's a trap set by Jie Xiu, don't get close."
The female cultivator is about seventeen or eighteen years old, in good youth, tall and well-dressed, Three thousand green hairs were tied up with a copper crown and hung down on the back of her head like a ponytail, making her appear heroic.
She looks like a chivalrous woman who is eager for justice.
As the female cultivator appeared, the women in the carriage stopped screaming. The plain white jade hand held the small window of the carriage and pressed it, and a plump figure poked out of the carriage.
The woman is about twenty-seven or twenty-seven, wearing an emerald green skirt, a fox fur coat, a snake bun on her head, a beaded hairpin, and jade bracelets, with a plump figure White and tender, like a ripe peach, with those charming eyes, just standing there makes people feel delicate, making people want to love or ravage her.
"Young master, don't listen to that little sister's nonsense. The slave family is not a bad person."
The woman's voice is charming and soft, and the bones of the listener feel numb.
But the female cultivator who was standing in front of Jiang Sheng said angrily: "You tribulation cultivators are so lawless. You dare to frame people above officialdom. I, Li Qingyun, will naturally not ignore it when I see it!"
The woman covered her mouth and smiled sweetly: "Little sister, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense."
Suddenly, a helpless and slightly tired voice appeared: "Junior sister, you have too many Minding your own business."
I saw a figure standing in front of Li Qingyun. The man looked about twenty years old, with a long sword on his waist and a jade crown in white clothes.
Li Qingyun was very surprised and said: "Brother Li Tai, you are catching up."
The woman was a little wary when she saw the sudden appearance of Li Tai: "A monk at the ninth level of Qi training?"
Li Tai looked at the indignant junior sister behind him, and then at the person sitting cross-legged on the cloud-turning horse. Jiang Sheng finally sighed helplessly: "Oh, it seems we are about to take action again."
"Meizi An, what nonsense are you talking to these people!" A rough voice sounded, followed by another A strong man with a bald head and a beard appeared from the roadside.
The bald man wore an iron armor and held a nine-ring ghost-headed sword in his hand. He looked arrogant and difficult to mess with, and his cultivation level was as high as the ninth level of Qi training.
"That's right, what do you have to say to these fledgling boys? Kill people, take things, and continue in another place." A sinister voice sounded.
A thin figure with a pale face appeared from behind. The tall and thin man looked at Li Qingyun with a lewd expression and couldn't help but lick the corner of his mouth.
“A little pepper is really appetizing.”
Li Qingyun looked at the tall and thin man standing behind them, her face was already a little ugly, and another practitioner Nine levels of Qi!
At this time, the charming woman known as An Meizi also took a step forward. Her cultivation level was impressively at the ninth level of Qi training!
Three monks at the ninth level of Qi training!
Not to mention Li Qingyun, Li Tai's expression was extremely serious.
Although his cultivation is at the ninth level of Qi training, Junior Sister Qingyun is only at the seventh level of Qi training. The two of them have absolutely no chance of winning against three ninth level Qi training!
But the way the two men looked at Li Qingyun told Li Tai that there was no possibility of reconciliation between them at the moment.
Grinning his teeth, Li Tai pulled out the sword from his waist: "Junior sister Qingyun, prepare to fight with all your strength!"
Li Qingyun also knew that the situation was critical, so she nodded and drew out her sword. Come.
Seeing this tense scene, Jiang Sheng closed his eyes again: "Let's go around."
Fan Yunju blinked his big eyes and immediately stepped forward and ran forward.
Not to mention Li Tai and Li Qingyun, even these three robbery cultivators had expressions of disbelief on their faces at this time.
The three of them were robbing the road at this time, but this man ignored them? !
And Li Qingyun was even more shocked: "You, what are you going to do?!"
Jiang Sheng was too lazy to answer, so Fan Yunju approached the charming Jie Xiu named An Meizi with small steps, and then planned to go around the overturned carriage.
The bald man couldn't help himself when he saw this scene: "Leave the horse for me!"
As he said that, the bald man jumped up high, raised his knife and slashed at the man. Looking at Jiang Sheng who was defenseless.
Meizi An seemed to have remembered something and shouted quickly: "Stop!"
But just as she shouted, she saw the bald Jie Xiu leaping high had already He stopped in the air, his face still maintaining that angry look.
The next moment, a blood line extended from the top of his head to the bald Jie Xiu's abdomen, and then the Bald Jie Xiu was split in half, and his internal organs were scattered on the ground along with the blood.
The warm blood splashed onto her face, but An Meizi did not dare to move.
She didn't even notice Jiang Sheng's movements just now!
In just an instant, one person died on his side, and he died completely defenseless and unable to fight back!
Recalling Jiang Sheng's always indifferent expression, An Meizi still didn't realize that this guy who looked like a fat sheep in front of her was the real ruthless person.
The tall and thin man was also frightened. He stared at his dead companion with wide eyes. A cold sweat broke out in his head. Could it be that the rider on the horse was a master of foundation building? !
When he thought that he and the others might have offended the masters of foundation building, the tall and thin man felt his legs become weak.
Not to mention An Meizi and the tall and thin man, even Li Tai and Li Qingyun were confused.
Even with their background and knowledge, they couldn't see Jiang Sheng's action.
Did Jiang Sheng take action or not?
Tap, tap.
As if Fanyun Ju didn't sense anything, he carried Jiang Sheng around the overturned carriage and continued heading north.
Before An Meizi and the tall and thin man could breathe a sigh of relief, the expressions on their faces suddenly stiffened, and then they both stopped in place.
The next moment, the breeze blew, and their heads rolled and fell to the ground.
