Chapter 349 God’s destiny is stable (33)
other side.
"Don't stop! Shimen Town is ahead!"
In the snow, a big man in gray clothes was shouting loudly, urging his brothers not to fall behind: "The residents there have not been moved for a long time, so you can rely on the town for defense!"
"Don't be afraid if the monster catches up, I will cut off the queen!"
After hearing his words, everyone who was very tired suddenly took a breath and continued to move forward with enthusiasm.
Xu Tai, the chief escort of the Hanlang Escort Bureau, has a life motto of "opening roads in the mountains". He has a very famous nickname, which is called "a promise of a thousand gold".
When he just returned from the martial arts academy, he eradicated a group of old bandits in his hometown mountainous area. The entire village was defeated by him. From then on, he became famous in one battle and became a well-known local martial artist. He used the money saved by the old bandits as a foundation. , opened his own escort agency.
In the beginning, Xu Tai's reputation was not so good because he had a very strange habit, that is, if the money offered was not enough for his psychological expectations, he would never accept it and was forced to accept it, and he never guaranteed that the goods would be delivered. Cannot be delivered.
Whenever someone accused him of this, Xu Tai would say, "You don't know how valuable your goods are and how many robbers you will attract?" ’ ‘How much money does your father have to work for? ’ ‘One penny means one effort, and the remuneration you give is worth the effort.’
He was also called the 'money ghost' at that time, and for a while, the entire Hanlang Escort Bureau could not receive any commissions.
Until one time, a pair of orphans and widowers went around entrusting them to be sent back to Hongjiang from the Hanhai.
The head of this family was once a well-known lawyer in Baishan City, because his father helped a woman who was raped to win a lawsuit against a martial artist. The martial artist was the son of a well-known local martial artist and offended the local martial arts school.
He himself fell into the water and died by the river. His eldest son was inexplicably hit and killed by a carriage, and his eldest daughter also disappeared. It is very likely that he would end up miserable, leaving only an orphan and a widowed mother.
Because the martial arts hall is so powerful and there are even five powerful people close to the martial arts master, a martial arts master may appear at any time. No escort agency in the surrounding towns dares to take over this escort commission.
Xu Tai was willing to accept it, but offered a price of 1,500 taels of silver.
How can one collect one thousand five hundred taels of silver? Although the lawyer made money, the family also had a lot of money. The orphan and widowed mother scraped together everything. Counting the jewelry and banknotes at the bottom of the box, the amount was less than five hundred taels.
Xu Tai did not refuse: "In this case, I can only save your son's life."
"That's enough." The tired and haggard woman smiled bitterly. She actually knew that her family had almost no chance of survival, and now they were just dying.
Xu Tai didn't say much and led the team to set off. Knowing that the situation was dangerous, he repeatedly created suspicions, split routes and disguised himself, and even led people away alone. However, he was still discovered on the way and was besieged by a group of masked warriors in the mountains and forests.
This team of warriors were all good warriors, and they also hired local bandits to shoot arrows and besiege them. The woman died early from random arrows, but the youngest son was always protected in Xu Tai's arms.
Carrying nine arrows and four swords, he fought his way out of the siege with one sword and traveled thousands of miles into the city. He was caught up and fought on the outskirts of the city. He broke through the four magical powers before the battle, and then took a boat to go south.
On the Hongjiang River, he had a fierce battle with the warrior who finally insisted on catching up, and finally knocked him down. He successfully delivered the young son back to the woman's natal home intact and healthy.
At this point, Xu Tai became famous and was called the warrior most likely to break through to the Grand Master level around Broken Blade Mountain.
He still has the same temperament, and he contributes every penny, but no one calls him a money man anymore, but calls him 'a promise of a thousand gold'.
Everyone knows that as long as enough money is paid and a promise is obtained, Xu Tai will do his best to complete it, even if he has to travel thousands of miles and cross hundreds of rivers and rivers.
But this time, Xu Tai did not accept any money for the commission.
Due to the frost calamity, the spirits, ferocious beasts, monsters and monsters in the Broken Blade Mountains began to gradually turn into a migration tide, trekking towards the south. This process is the so-called [Beast Tide].
But unlike in the story, the beast tide will avoid large human cities and will never take the initiative to attack. At most, they will trample farmland along the way and destroy some unprotected villages. They will not invade any small town with some walls.
However, even so, their presence will cut off the roads, making it difficult to transport supplies into the city, and because most of these ferocious beasts migrate in batches, the blockade will last for a long time.
Linjiang City was blocked by the beast tide. Many people whose hometowns were in Linjiang City and surrounding villages and towns raised funds to purchase a batch of supplies, hoping to support Linjiang City - as long as experienced warriors could spot the wave of the beast tide migration, they Once, these materials can be transported into the city to meet urgent needs.
Xu Tai was from Linjiang City, so he was naturally entrusted. He did not accept any money this time. He just muttered, "I will donate this labor fee to my hometown," and then led the team to start work.
There shouldn't be any danger in this. With his strength, let alone avoiding those ferocious beasts, even if he really encounters a migrating ferocious beast group, Xu Tai is confident that he can fight his way out - as long as he doesn't encounter them Xu Tai has enough confidence in the great demon spirits in the mountains who are comparable to martial arts.
This was indeed the case, as if they felt that this team was not easy to deal with, ferocious beasts and spirits were walking around their team, but who knew that Xu Tai and others encountered an unexpected surprise.
They were attacked by monsters.
"Monsters are not uncommon...but how can they be so numerous and so strong?"
Sensing the evil gaze behind him, Xu Tai Rumang was behind him. This muscular man with messy hair and unshaven beard had a knife mark from his forehead to his nose to his chin. He was frowning at the moment, even with the knife on his face. Scar was twisted: "The monster is still chasing me, damn it! The ferocious beast next door has a lot more meat than people, why don't you eat it!"
In his sight, he could vaguely see a dozen strange monsters running fast in strange postures. These monsters still generally maintain the appearance of beasts before being eroded, but their entire bodies are gray and white, losing all color, and their facial features have collapsed into a hole. Deep in the hole, there is a faint light flashing, like fire and stars, but it makes people shudder. .
These monsters should be [body-eating demons], which are the most common monsters. They are derived from normal creatures hatched by being corroded by demonic energy. Their strength ranges from less than that of ordinary people to comparable to the strong inside.
Xu Tai has no problem dealing with a few of them, but these monsters are not afraid of death. They will take advantage of other monsters to fight and rush over regardless of their injuries. Although Xu Tai is fierce, he is still afraid of losing his life, not to mention that he is not this time. Alone with a dozen brothers, he naturally had no choice but to abandon his goods and escape temporarily.
"eccentric!"
Xu Tai gritted his teeth. He was a professional martial artist who had studied in a martial arts academy. How could he not know the habits of monsters? Although there are a lot of these eroded monsters, they are all randomly fallen. It is theoretically impossible to get together and launch a coordinated attack on them... There must be a conspiracy behind this!
I don’t know whether it’s the real demon sect, another demon sect, or some lunatic madman... And what they transport is just ordinary food and some medicines. Is there anything worthy of conspiracy in this?
Can't figure it out, Xu Tai's heart suddenly jumped, and then without thinking, she turned around with her knife and raised it diagonally. With a few clanging sounds, she knocked down five ice picks that came with the biting cold wind.
But the fragments of the ice pick still grazed his cheek, leaving a trail of blood.
In the distance, the monsters let out weird shouts, and the surrounding cold air swept and gathered with their shouts, turning into cyclones rotating in mid-air. In the air mass, sharp ice blades and ice cones were condensing out. .
They faced Xu Tai and others from a distance, and then launched in unison.
"Oops, these monsters can actually do magic?!"
Xu Tai was very skilled in martial arts and was slightly injured when he was attacked by a concentrated fire. His brothers in the escort agency were not so lucky. A round of ice pick volleys was fired. Although most of them were able to dodge with their martial arts, one person was still hit. The ice pick penetrated his thigh, and the warrior screamed and fell down, bleeding profusely, and his face turned pale in pain.
In the severe pain, with the warrior's vision, the injured warrior vaguely saw another cold light condensing in the distance, aiming at his head.
Boom boom boom...
The dull sound came, it seemed to be his own heartbeat, it seemed to be the roar of blood rushing.
"Coming!"
Xu Tai, who was facing the monster, also heard the sound. He thought it was the roar of the monsters running together, but soon he realized something was wrong: "Wait a minute, this sound..."
The sound came not from in front of me, but from behind, from the side...
boom!
But before Xu Tai could figure it out, a silver-white shadow flew from behind him at lightning speed, smashing all the ice picks and ice blades, and then, without slowing down at all, like a galloping Like a fierce horse and a chariot, it rushed into the group of monsters!
No! Xu Tai opened his eyes wide because he saw that the silvery white shadow suddenly disappeared the moment it was about to hit the group of monsters. What appeared in the place was an extremely young figure.
The figure pulled out a long knife. Then, the long knife turned into waves, turning into a silver wave arc that swept across the five monsters in front of him.
"Master!"
Xu Tai shouted out subconsciously. He was very aware of the value of the figure's sword just now.
Ordinary people's eyes can't actually see very fast speeds, let alone flying arrows from crossbows. Even some faster-flying birds and ordinary people can't see clearly the front ends of sticks and swords. They can only see a connected fragment. Shadow, a smooth sword light.
But warriors are different. In their eyes, ordinary crossbow arrows appear to be in slow motion. It is more difficult to dodge and shoot away than to catch a falling snowflake.
But even Xu Tai, a master of the four supernatural powers, could only see a flash of sword light, which was enough to prove that the figure's speed of drawing the sword and slashing was already approaching a realm - the realm of Lei Yin!
Kakakaka—boom!
It was like thunder exploding, followed by a short and clear sound of bone cracking. But with this arc of light, the heads of five monsters flew high, and these monsters also showed confused behavior. They lowered their heads, as if they didn't understand why at all. I am separated from my body.
But the figure didn't stop. He took advantage of the sword's power and stepped forward again. His whole body was like a silver-white whirlwind, rushing into the group of monsters, slashing left and right, bringing with it a wave of bloody limbs. .
Everyone in the Hanlang Escort Bureau was stunned. Even the warrior with an injured thigh stopped shouting. He held the wound on his thigh blankly and watched numbly as the figure chased them to pieces like he was chopping melons and vegetables. All the monsters were wiped out.
In less than five finger snaps, all the monsters were killed.
The figure sheathed his sword, lifted up the body of a monster, and walked towards the Hanlang Escort and the others while observing.
Several people moved slightly, as if they wanted to turn around and run away, or maybe they wanted to draw their swords instinctively, but Xu Tai gave a sharp shout, then threw the sword at his waist aside, stepped forward to greet him, and said loudly: "Xia Hanlang Escort Bureau Xu Moss, I would like to ask the master, what do you want to tell me?"
If there is no malicious intention, the warrior will tell his story when meeting. The figure raised his head, looked away from the monster, and revealed a young and heroic face: "Hanbei Anjing is going to Linjiang City. Could you please give me directions."
"An Jing?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was in an uproar, and Xu Tai, the leader, even had a scar on his face. He looked at this young warrior who fully met all the conditions and said in almost astonishment: "God, God's destiny is stable?! "
"right."
An Jing saw it and knew that he was completely famous. He said calmly: "That's me."
