Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There was no conversation all night, and it was still dark the next day. The team of Tie Heng and Zheng Kui woke up. They all started to pack their bags, tied the sacks filled with medicinal materials to the backs of the mules and horses, and set off in groups.

    Tie Heng was placed in the middle of the team. Zheng Kui and Colgate had to take care of the entire caravan, so they were accompanied by Xiao Zhuzi. Tie Heng could ask him to do it if he needed anything.

    "This place is really lively!" The group of people gradually crossed the pass. Xiao Zhuzhu twisted a little uncomfortably on a mule, then turned his tired face and looked at a house in the distance.  He muttered.

    Tie Heng smiled when he heard the words and glanced back in that direction.  It was a prostitute village that also functioned as a casino and a restaurant, so it was quite large in scale.  The lights were brightly lit all night last night, and the sound of noise spread throughout the area. It was far from the scene that most people would imagine in a deserted mountain wilderness that is completely silent at night.

    People here have long been accustomed to music and music played every night in the prostitute village, but it is difficult for tourists from outside to sleep peacefully, especially young people with strong blood. They hear the singing of silk and bamboo from afar, as well as the men's jokes and women's  Jiaohu, then it is not difficult to understand that he is tossing and turning on the bed.

    "You didn't sleep last night, okay?" Tie Heng watched as several servants in the brothel extinguished a row of lanterns hanging at the entrance. Many customers left one after another, which showed that the business was booming compared to some brothels in the city.  If there is something wrong, he asked casually.

    "Yeah!" Xiaozhu nodded with a blush, but looked at the other companions around him, most of them were the same as him.  His face looked sleepy, and there were even two circles under his eyes.  Apparently it was a sleepless night.  This made Xiaozhu feel better, but he didn't want to be looked down upon by Tie Heng now.  He quickly explained again.

    "Yeah, it's not all because of the noise there. I was too excited. What you said last night"

    Tie Heng smiled slightly, knowing that Xiao Zhuzhu was telling the truth.  Yesterday, Tie Heng diagnosed and treated Zheng Kui's old illness, especially the power of magic. Even though it was only the most basic use of spiritual power, it still completely convinced these fledgling boys.  They changed their previous attitude of contempt and rejection, during a period of free time after dinner and before going to bed.  They all gathered around Tie Heng, asking questions, and even tentatively asking Tie Heng for advice on the secrets of magic. Among them, Xiao Zhuzi was the most active.

    Tie Heng was also idle and bored at that time, so he tested the spiritual roots of everyone. It turned out that most people had shallow spiritual roots and were unable to practice spells. Only Xiaozhu stood out and had earth spiritual roots.  Although this level of spiritual root is not an outstanding talent in a place like Kunyuan Academy, it is much stronger than ordinary people.

    At that time, Xiaozhu was surprised by the surprise. Later, I didn¡¯t know whether it was Zheng Kui or Colgate¡¯s idea. Tie Heng fell asleep not long after.  Xiaozhu came to him again and wanted to become his teacher. Naturally, Tie Heng would not accept him as his disciple.  He just promised to teach him some spells and cultivation methods, and advised him to enter a school to receive a systematic education.  He was just sixteen years old, which was just right.  Tie Heng actually said this to Zheng Kui.  He believed that Xiao Zhuzhu would definitely pass the message on to Zheng Kui. As for the final result, that was not Tie Heng's concern.

    "Whether you practice magic or martial arts, you must have a firm will and not be moved by external objects. A little noise will make you have a bad night's sleep. Can you bear the pain you will have to endure when practicing magic in the future?" Tie  Heng deliberately scolded him with a straight face.

    "I, I can do it, I, I, I am not afraid of hardship." Xiao Zhuzhu stuttered and shouted. In order to strengthen his tone, he also puffed out his chest to show that he was very strong.

    Tie Heng was amused by his appearance, with a smile on his face.  Xiao Zhuzhu seemed to realize that he was trying to remind him and was not really angry or disappointed, so he breathed a sigh of relief and muttered: "Thank you, thank you for your teachings. I will definitely keep them in my heart."

    "Your attitude towards studying may change your life." Tie Heng replied in a low voice, then waved his hand and laughed again: "Here, take it, this is the incense to enhance the effect of meditation, and  This booklet contains some simple meditation formulas and entry-level earth spells, which is just right for you to lay the foundation at this stage."

    Tie Heng took out a few bottles of Ningshen Powder and a booklet he wrote last night and handed them to the boy next to him.  Xiaozhu took them, his whole body trembling with excitement.  He thanked her profusely and couldn't wait to open the booklet.

    When the other young people around saw this scene, they looked at Xiaozhu with envy in their eyes.  Of course, many people were jealous of Xiaozhu's good luck. For a moment, the atmosphere in the team was a little strange, and people were whispering everywhere.

    Tie Heng doesn¡¯t care about this, while Xiao Zhuzhu hasn¡¯t noticed the changes in his companions yet.Looking at the rising sun in the east, he read the contents of the booklet carefully. The meditation formulas and magic incantations were all profound and mysterious things to him at this time, which made him full of awe.  Treat them.

    Tie Heng admired his mentality and enthusiasm for magic, so he explained a few words to him beside him.  Then it evolved into a question and answer session between the two. If it weren't for riding on the back of a mule, Xiaozhu would have written down every word Tie Heng said with a pen.  He had learned accounting from his cousin, and he knew many more words than his older companions. However, at this moment, he could only remember with his heart. His concentration made his eyes gleaming, as if he was seeing something.  to his own bright future.

    In front of the team, Zheng Kui turned back and glanced at the two of them. Seeing the situation here, he smiled happily.

    "If Xiao Zhuzhu can become an official magician in the future, it will be a good thing for everyone, and our firm will be more confident Hey, when I go back to Maozhou this time, I have a lot of things to discuss with my eldest brother and the others.  ." Zheng Kui then sighed again: "I don't know if this Zhuo Xuan is his real name or what kind of secrets he hides, but he does bring good luck"

    Thinking of this, Zheng Kui shook his head, collected his somewhat divergent thoughts, and then turned his attention back to the current matter.

    The caravan has passed through the pass and has entered Haizhou.  It was much more rugged than yesterday.  The terrain to the east of the pass gradually becomes gentler, and the mountain road is much easier to walk.  Although as the sun gradually rises.  The temperature is getting hotter and hotter, not any cooler than yesterday.  But Zheng Kui still felt a lot more relaxed and mentally estimated how much he could walk this day.

    They are the only caravan on the mountain road. For any businessman, time is money. It is an unchanging rule, not to mention smuggling, which requires seizing every moment and trafficking in large quantities when the price of goods is the highest.  Therefore, even if they are spending the night in a deserted mountain or there is the risk of being robbed by bandits, caravans passing by usually still have to rush for time.  I rarely intentionally stay at the pass. Unless I happen to be on time, I will spend the night in a lodge at the pass.

    For example, in the prostitute villages at the pass, the main source of customers is all kinds of people other than caravans, such as wanted criminals who are trying to avoid being chased by the government or demon slayers who come to Haizhou to wander around. They are tired from walking in the deep mountains.  , with so many places for them to relax and have fun, they are naturally willing to spend a lot of money.  But it's too late for the smugglers to make money now, so why would they waste time in a place like this?  At most I just rested or bought some food.

    Therefore, there were no other caravans in front or behind Zheng Kui's group, only more than 20 of them were on their way.

    Zheng Kui was still blaming himself for being delayed all afternoon yesterday, when Colgate came up from behind the team.  In a hurry, there was some uneasiness in his expression.

    "Uncle." She rode her horse and saddled up with Zheng Kui, and said in a low voice: "There are tails behind us. There are quite a few people, nearly a dozen."

    "What kind of tricks are they? Can you tell?" Zheng Kui was slightly excited and his expression became solemn.

    Colgate shook her head.  He said uncertainly: "I can't tell yet, but I saw them following us from a distance. There were no mules or horses carrying goods. The team didn't look like a caravan. There were always people.  If you are watching in our direction, it is possible that you have bad intentions."

    "This way" Zheng Kui thought for a moment. With his many years of experience in selling goods, Colgate's words made him feel something bad and vaguely smelled danger.  He thought about it for a moment and whispered: "Ask the guys behind the team to keep a close eye on us, but don't act rashly. Don't let the guys in the team see that we are on guard. I will make my own arrangements for the rest."

    "Okay, I'll go and tell them right now." Colgate agreed, and drove his horse back.

    Zheng Kui here sent people to call back Wu Er, who was in charge of exploring the road. At the same time, he was also a little worried. After all, this was his second time here, and he only had a simple piece of information about the terrain conditions here.  map.

    "Mr. Zhuo, something seems to have happened." Xiaozhu and others all grew up with Colgate and were very familiar with her character. They could tell at a glance that something was going on, otherwise their eldest sister would not be in such a hurry.  look.

    "Yeah." Tie Heng looked back and forth, his face showing no emotion at all, and Xiao Zhuzhu couldn't tell what he was thinking.

    "Maybe, maybe there are bandits' spies following behind" Even though Xiao Zhuzhu used to just follow his cousin as a follower, and was a bit timid and shy like a girl, this boy is actually quite smart.  He is also very good at observing words and analyzing problems. When he thought that his cousin was responsible for the rear of the caravan, he came to this conclusion.

    "You saw it very accurately." Tie Heng's sensitive hearing has alreadyBehind the team, Colgate whispered instructions to several waiters, and he also affirmed Xiaozhu's accurate guess.

    "But, damn it, those robbers" Xiaozhu suddenly showed an annoyed expression, biting his nails and said: "It's a shame that I haven't learned a spell yet, otherwise I can help everyone"

    "Don't worry, nothing will happen." Tie Heng could see the boy's worry and panic. Of course, it was also mixed with courage and anger, so he reached out and patted Xiaozhu's shoulder.

    His gentle tone and movements were very effective. Xiaozhu quickly calmed down, and with Tie Heng's hint, he went to comfort the companions around him, because they also noticed the abnormality, and restlessness inevitably spread in the team.

    "Alas, these guys are too young and inexperienced, so they can't hold their breath." Zheng Kui at the front of the team sighed. He called Wu Da and asked him to calm down the uneasiness in the team and asked the team to speed up.

    It didn¡¯t take long for the people sent by Zheng Kui to find Wu Er. This clever boy had clear eyes. As soon as he saw Zheng Kui¡¯s expression, he knew that something bad must have happened.  So he didn't ask any questions when he got close, and went straight to the topic: "Uncle Kui. What are your orders for calling me back?"

    "Is there anything going on ahead?" Zheng Kui glanced at him appreciatively.  He took out the map in his hand, unfolded it, and looked at it with Wu Er.

    "Nothing unusual was found." Wu Er shook his head.  It had been almost an hour since they set off, and Wu Er had been exploring the path in front of the team. He recalled some of the human traces he had discovered along the way, and there was nothing worth being vigilant about.  He firmly believed that he had not missed anything, so he shook his head again and said with certainty: "Everything is normal."

    ¡°Oh!¡± Zheng Kui pondered for a moment, then pointed to a location on the map.  "This is a canyon, right in front. Have you checked it out? What's the situation like?"

    "I just returned from the canyon. It's still six or seven miles away from here. The canyon is very narrow, only wide enough for four or five people to walk side by side at most. However, it is not very long. The mountain walls on both sides  It's not high either. I climbed up to investigate and found nothing suspicious. It can be passed safely." Wu Er replied without pause.

    "Really?" Zheng Kui was not as optimistic as Wu Er.  After thinking about it, he took Wu Er to the back of the team and observed with his own eyes the suspicious team hanging far behind. At the same time, he also needed to borrow Wu Er's rich investigative experience.

    "The team is so disorganized. Those people are definitely not a caravan, and their behavior does not look like good people." Wu Er's eyes were sharp and far away.  The problem can be seen from the opponent's movements and formation, unlike Colgate which relies more on feeling.  Suspect the other party has bad intentions.

    Now Zheng Kui no longer hesitated, he once again urged the team to speed up.  He led Wu Er forward. He was also worried about the canyon.  When we arrived in front of the canyon, we stood on a high place and looked around. Just as Wu Er said, this canyon is very low, and the passage between the mountain walls on both sides is also very narrow, but it is not large in scale and twists and turns.  It's only five or six miles long.

    "This is a good place to set up an ambush. If you block the front and rear, and occupy the tops of the mountain walls on both sides, you won't be able to escape even with your wings." Zheng Kui seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to be exposing himself to Wu Er beside him.  Worry in my heart.

    "Uncle Kui, this canyon is so big that it shouldn't be able to hide people. We" Wu Er was somewhat disapproving and was very confident in the results of his investigation.

    "Don't be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of what may happen!" Zheng Kui was already very suspicious and did not want to take any risky actions.

    Before Wu Er could speak again, he had already raced back to the caravan, and ordered the team to change direction and take the mountainous area to the north, preparing to bypass the canyon in front of them.

    The bottom of the canyon is narrow, but the ground is relatively flat. Over the past two years, there have been so many smuggling caravans coming and going. As people walk more, they will naturally find a path, so it is not difficult to walk, but you can avoid it if you want to.  , whether it is the mountains in the north or the woods in the south, they are all primitive landforms, with mountains, rocks and trees everywhere, pits and pits, and it is rugged and difficult to travel.

    As a result, everyone had to get off their mounts and lead the mules and horses on the road just like yesterday. From time to time, various situations would occur, such as someone spraining his feet among the rocks, and some mules and horses could not help themselves on the steep mountains.  Be willing to move and wait.

    During this process, Tie Heng not only took good care of his own horses and the big green donkey, but also helped others.  He pried away the big rocks blocking the road, carried the unloaded sacks over some of the most difficult sections, and then led the mules and horses over. For a while, Tie Heng became the busiest and most useful person in the caravan.  .

    "Mr. Zhuo, I'm sorry to trouble you again." Tie Heng was tying the two sacks to the back of the big green donkey again when Colgate came up from behind and stood beside him.Next to him, he said softly.

    "Everyone relies on supporting each other when they go out. You don't have to worry about this little thing." Tie Heng said with a smile, then turned to look at Zheng Kui in front of him, who was also looking this way.  As soon as people made eye contact, they nodded towards each other.

    "Tsk, this Brother Zheng is really suspicious." Tie Heng discovered that Zheng Kui had been secretly paying attention to him from just now.  He thought on his knees and realized that the other party was doubting his identity and worried that he was an internal agent sent by the thieves and would swallow up the caravan in one go.

    But Tie Heng is not too dissatisfied with this. After all, this is human nature. Although ingratitude is despicable, prudent people can always live longer.

    After walking for a while, the sun had already risen to the middle of the sky, and everyone was exhausted from walking on this difficult mountainous terrain. Zheng Kui had to let the team stop to rest even though he was unwilling.  They also fed the mules and horses, and everyone also took this opportunity to fill their bellies.

    Zheng Kui, Colgate, Brother Wu and others gathered together to discuss countermeasures.  After others ate some dry food, they didn't bother to rest.  They are all preparing to fight.  These young people lack experience and have impetuous tempers, but at least they have the energy of newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers. After they learned that their team may have been targeted by bandits, after the initial confusion, the young people's bloody temperament  Being inspired, everyone was gearing up, and no one showed timidity or fear.

    Tie Heng sat aside and watched these young people helping each other put on leather armor.  A caravan like this.  There is no shortage of self-defense weapons. It¡¯s just that for the convenience of traveling and the hot weather, everyone only has light summer clothes. They were marching on rocky mountains just now, and many people¡¯s clothes and pants were damaged by the sharpness of the rocks.  The corners were torn and there were many scratches on the body.  At this time, these young people neither complained about pain nor tiredness, and bandaged them hastily.  Then he put on the armor that was so precious to his life in the past.

    "Mr. Zhuo, don't you have any armor for self-defense?" Xiaozhu also had a set of well-fitting leather armor, which he had tied up with the help of his companions. Then he saw Tie Heng sitting there.  He slowly ate the noodles and drank herbal tea, seemingly not at all nervous about the situation in front of him.

    "I have armor. But depending on the situation, I probably won't be able to use it." Tie Heng's storage bag contains many armor-like instruments, and they are all of high quality.  However, it would be a bit exaggerated to use it here, and at the same time, he didn't think it was necessary to deal with some bandits.

    "Huh!?" Xiaozhu was stunned.  It was obvious that he had misunderstood: "You mean those thieves can't catch up with us?"

    Tie Heng smiled and didn¡¯t explain much. Instead, he became interested in some of the small props Xiao Zhuzhu was playing with.  Xiao Zhuzhu's weapons were a short sword about two feet long and a small buckler. While talking to Tie Heng, he was wiping the blade with a white cloth, and then took out a small oil paper bag, which contained some grease-like stuff.  He dipped some in a white cloth and spread it evenly on the blade.  Beside him, there were other objects placed, including several paper charms.

    "These are the Flowing Fire Talisman and the Sharp Blade Talisman." Tie Heng recognized them at a glance. These two talismans are the lowest paper talismans among the fire and metal systems, and they are both attachment-type talismans. The former one can be on the surface of the weapon.  Adds a layer of fire that can burn enemies when attacking.  The latter can enhance the sharpness and sturdiness of the weapon, and is very practical.

    "Yes." Now when talking about things related to magic, Xiaozhu became particularly excited.  "I heard that my uncle spent a lot of money to get these two kinds of talismans. Each of us was given several talismans to use for self-defense when in danger. You see, there is also this kind of grease, which is smeared on the knife.  , can increase the effectiveness and duration of the Fire Talisman."

    "There's something else." Tie Heng was slightly surprised, took an oil paper bag, opened it and looked at it.

    "What kind of oil is this? It seems that it is not extracted from ordinary animals and plants." Tie Heng came closer to smell it, but he couldn't tell the origin of the oil, so he asked.

    ¡°I heard it¡¯s made from a kind of worm we have here, and it¡¯s not expensive. It¡¯s usually used to treat burns and burns.¡± Xiaozhu replied.

    "Where's the wisdom of the common people!" Tie Heng thought to himself.  Ordinary people cannot understand the mysteries of magic, but this does not prevent them from using their own wisdom and experience, as well as limited conditions, to make maximum use of this power that is valuable to them.

    "This method of enhancing the effectiveness of talismans is worth learning from." Tie Heng would not despise it just because it was a technique invented by ordinary people, but would accept it with an open mind.  He also asked Xiaozhu for two oil paper bags, planning to test the composition of the oil when he had time.

    "Mr. Zhuo, if the thief catches up, we will definitely keep you safe, don't worry." A boy next to him saw Tie Heng and said:She was lost in thought while holding the oil paper bag. She thought he was uneasy, so she waved a long knife with one hand and patted her chest with the other and shouted.

    Tie Heng burst into laughter upon hearing this.  "Okay, I'd like to thank you in advance."

    The kid suddenly felt his face light up and his head was raised high.  However, his companion exposed his old story: "I'm talking about Sanzi, you kid is talking big words again. Mr. Zhuo is a man of great ability, so there is no need for you to protect him. Besides, when has your kid not been the first to fight?  Bo was knocked down, and this time he may have to fight with a real sword, so you better take care of yourself!"

    Although these words made the third son a little embarrassed, the words also revealed a caring feeling, so the third son did not become angry.  He just muttered: "Don't underestimate me, just wait. Those thieves should either not come today, or if they come, I will chop off a few dog heads for you to see."

    His confident appearance attracted good-natured laughter from the nearby companions. Following their exchanges, the conversation gradually turned to issues such as the level of everyone's martial arts, cooperation with everyone, etc. Even the person beside Tie Heng  Xiaozhu also joined in, and the atmosphere gradually became more intense.

    Tie Heng also added a sentence or two from time to time, especially praising their common hatred and courage.

    He looked at these young men. The leather armors they wore and the swords and guns they held in their hands were just ordinary items.  If it were placed in Kunyuan Academy, no one would take a closer look.  But here, it is the equipment that everyone cherishes and cherishes. It is the guarantee for their settlement and life, and it is also a symbol of their bravery and strength.  There are also those lowest-level talismans, which they cherish as treasures, and their words reveal the intention not to use them lightly.

    "This level of equipment is only slightly better than that of a newly minted demon slayer" Tie Heng murmured to himself, while also realizing that this was the true status quo of the human world.  The amount of force most ordinary people can possess.

    He witnessed the glory of the Shengwu Celestial Dynasty, and has been in the academy since his rebirth. He saw many powerful people and high-end equipment of this era, but rarely had contact with such people at the bottom of society.  It feels like a world on two levels.

    "We are not far away from the arrival of another wave of destruction, and we don't know what kind of suffering mankind will endure" Tie Heng sighed in his heart, and he became more and more appreciative of the vigor and bloody spirit of these young people in front of him.

    He took out a stack of paper charms from his storage bag.  Put them into the little pillar's hand.  "You pass these around, and each person gets two of each kind."

    "Ah!" Xiaozhu stared at the thick stack of talismans in his hand.  Everyone was stunned, and their mouths were opened wide.  It can probably fit an apple into it.

    "This, this, so much!" Xiaozhu became excited and began to stutter again.

    "Well, they are all paper talismans that I draw during my usual practice. They are divided into two types: earth type and wood type." Tie Heng pointed and said: "This is the brute force talisman, which can strengthen the strength and physical fitness of the holder. This is the rock armor.  Talisman, the effect is similar to the stone skin spell. It forms a layer of rock shell on the surface of the human body. It has good defense, but it will increase the weight of the person a lot and make the movements slower. The last type is the wooden armor talisman, which is similar to the rock armor talisman.  The effect is similar, adding a layer of thick and tough bark-like skin, but the defensive ability is slightly worse, and the advantage is that it will not affect the flexibility of the limbs."

    After Tie Heng gave a brief explanation, he asked Xiaozhu to distribute these paper charms to everyone.  None of the boys around had ever thought that such a good thing would happen, and they immediately cheered.  Tie Heng waited for their excitement to pass and then taught them how to use these paper charms.

    Generally, low-level talismans have common activating spells or techniques. For example, the Fire Talisman can be ignited with an open flame and attached to the weapon to form a circle of flames.  Of course, when activated, a trace of the user's spiritual power will also be extracted to stimulate the spiritual power sealed in the talisman.  But these paper charms drawn by Tie Heng were slightly different. Their activation spells were all set by Tie Heng to be Chinese in his previous life. At this time, he taught these young people a few simple words, which made them all think wildly.  It was some kind of ancient mysterious spell that made Tie Heng dumbfounded.

    "Listening to your nagging before, you said that Ninghai City is extremely prosperous, with so many fireworks and willow alleys that it takes up half of the city. Hey, you guys really want to see it." Tie Heng suddenly turned around.  The topic was brought up by everyone's chatting on the road, and it was used as a warning to them.  "If you want to go out and have fun, you have to protect yourselves first. These are just low-level talismans. They are nothing to me, and they are not worth your lives, so use them when you should use them. Anyway, they are  I gave it to you for free, so you don¡¯t need to feel any pain.¡±

    Tie Heng¡¯s words caused everyone to burst into laughter, and also dispelled many people¡¯s hesitations.

    Zheng Kui and others saw the scene here not far away, and someone also sent the paper charms distributed by Tie Heng. Several people looked at each other, not knowing what to say.  To them, ironHeng's move is definitely a big deal. After all, they are just a small trading company in a remote area of ??Maozhou. Although the older generation like Zheng Kui has some skills, the people they usually deal with are people of similar status to them or others.  Those mountain barbarian natives have never seen such a wealthy person as Tie Heng.

    "Uncle!" Colgate couldn't help but call out softly. She felt very complicated. Tieheng treated Zheng Kui and taught Xiaozhu spells. Now he was so generous, which made her feel ashamed, because she knew that people like her  It¡¯s hard to give the other person much in return.

    "I can't see through it. This person really can't see through it" Zheng Kui understood what Colgate was thinking, but he just waved his hand and looked down at the few paper charms given by Tie Heng given by the clerk. He was suspicious of Tie Heng just now.  It was the thief's intention, and he was somewhat embarrassed.

    "Uncle Kui, those talismans" Wu Er muttered on the side. He didn't like Tie Heng from the bottom of his heart. The reason was very simple. The way Colgate looked at him was completely different from the way she looked at other people. This made Wu Er extremely angry.  He was wary and very unhappy. It would be best for Tie Heng to leave as soon as possible and never have anything to do with people like him again. Therefore, he did not want others to accept Tie Heng's favor anymore.

    "Keep it! They have good intentions, and this is what we need now." Zheng Kui stood up and walked towards Tie Heng with Colgate. Even though he was far away, he held his fists in a salute and thanked Tie Heng loudly.

    Tie Heng also responded with a smile and said some useless polite words. After a while, the team was back on the road.

    "Brother, take these." Before Wu Er went out to explore the road, Wu Da handed several talismans to his younger brother.

    "It belongs to that guy, I don't want it." Wu Er also had a stubborn temper. When he saw the three kinds of paper talismans given by Tie Heng, he threw away his hand, unwilling to take any further.

    "Don't make trouble, this thing can save lives." Wu Da didn't allow him to object and stuffed the paper charm into his arms.

    The elder brother is like the father. This sentence is not wrong at all for Wu Er. He does not remember what his father is like. The figure of the elder brother has long taken his place, because he was raised by Wu Da single-handedly. In his  In his mind, his brother is the best person to him in the world. Similarly, it is difficult for him to disobey his brother's majesty.

    Wu Er had no choice but to put away a few paper talismans. He was filled with unhappiness, but had no choice and nowhere to vent it. He gritted his teeth and sulked for a while, then led his mount and ran ahead to explore the way.  He didn't notice that Wu Da's eyes were flickering just now, as if he was hesitant about something in his heart. If he had noticed, he would be surprised that his familiar brother would have such an expression.

    The caravan continued its arduous journey. In order to avoid the canyon, Zheng Kui chose the mountainous area to the north. Not only was it rugged and difficult, but it also required more than ten miles of walking. Fortunately, the terrain became flatter as they went further. Soon they were already there.  After passing through the mountains, we came to a rolling hilly area.

    "What's the discovery behind the team?" Zheng Kui ran forward and backward, personally controlling every detail of the team.  At this time, he was at the end of the line and asked about Colgate.

    "It seems that the team did not follow." Colgate replied. She had been paying attention to the way they came and did not see anyone following them.

    "Don't let your guard down, I feel very bad now." After all, he is an old man who has been traveling all over the world for decades. Zheng Kui was not deceived by the calm appearance at all, but instead felt more and more uneasy.

    "Uncle, is it really that bad?" Colgate asked worriedly.

    "Well, that's right. I've been feeling chills since just now, as if someone was holding a knife against me. Someone must be spying on us nearby" Zheng Kui said through gritted teeth, but he was only halfway through his words.  A loud arrow suddenly shot out from a small forest in front, and then a group of people rushed out. There were dozens of people, holding knives and axes, and rushed towards this direction shouting and killing.

    The expressions of Zheng Kui and others suddenly changed drastically!  (To be continued)
