    The old man and the little girl got on the carriage and kept thanking each other.  ¡¶

    The carriage continued to start and drove slowly towards the road in the distance.

    "The two benefactors have really helped me a lot. The old woman really doesn't know what to say." The old man looked very excited and patted his legs with his hands, as if he was so sore that he could no longer walk.

    Dongfang Xiuzhe sat in the car and stopped talking. Fimisha was afraid of the awkward atmosphere and said with a smile: "This is nothing. I wonder where you two come from and why you are walking on foot?"

    "Hey, it's hard to say enough!" The old man sighed and said with some emotion, "It's not because of my unfilial son. If I talk too much, I will shed tears!"

    Femisha smiled awkwardly. She had not yet made the habit of asking other people¡¯s questions, so she quickly changed the subject and asked: "Is this road usually very uneven?"

    "Yes, there have been thieves for many years. We civilians are frightened, and we can't afford the protection of mercenaries, so we have to pray that we don't encounter them. Especially in the recent period, I don't know why, so many people are going there.  "Going to Tianhuo Cliff, there are always fights on this road, it's scary to think about it." The old man paused for a moment and asked curiously, "I wonder where you are going?"

    "Haha, we are going to the 'Sky Fire Cliff'!" Fimisha smiled softly.

    "Oh? Then you have to be careful. In recent times, people who go to 'Tianhuo Cliff' are in danger. It's not that I'm too talkative. Seeing that you have such delicate skin and tender flesh, you really shouldn't go to such a dangerous place.  ¡±

    "We have the ability to protect ourselves!" Femisha felt that the old man was quite enthusiastic and couldn't help but smile again.

    "I can't be so sure. There is a saying, oh, by the way, 'It's easy to hide from an open gun, but hard to guard against a hidden one.' Today's bad guys. In order to get something for nothing, they can come up with any insidious method, making it difficult for people to guard against it."  Ah!" the old man said seriously.

    "Thank you for the reminder, we will pay attention!" Femisha didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so she turned to look at the little girl beside the old man and asked with a smile, "Little sister, how old are you?"

    The little girl seemed very shy, hiding her face behind the old man and refusing to come out.

    "This child is like this, don't take it off, two of you!" the old man explained hurriedly.

    "It's okay. Children of this age are in the period of growing up with their own personalities, right Xiuzhe?" Fimisha looked at Dongfang Xiuzhe with a smile on her face.

    Dongfang Xiuzhe rolled his eyes at her and said to himself: I was shot while I was lying down!

    The carriage drove forward smoothly. Although the road was not easy to walk, it did not feel bumpy because of the slow speed.

    As the conversation continued, the little girl seemed less restrained than at the beginning, and would ask a few questions from time to time.  Such as: What are you doing at ¡®Tianhuo Cliff¡¯?  Is there anyone else?  Are there any valuables that would be targeted by thieves?

    The sky has darkened.

    However, the road ahead is becoming brighter.  There seemed to be a lot of people gathered.

    "Master, there seems to be officers and soldiers guarding the front, and many people have been blocked back."

    At this moment, the voice of Gu Meng came in.

    "It's strange. There are usually no officers and soldiers here. Could it be that something happened?" The old woman murmured to herself.

    The carriage slowed down as it got closer and closer to the guarded location.  Already noisy protests could be heard.

    "Why don't you let us pass? What's the point?"

    "Yes, we are doing business. If we can't arrive at dawn, we will have to pay compensation!"

    "You guys, please be accommodating!"

    "It's too overbearing. Why should the government block this place"

    Many people did not just leave, but protested loudly there.

    "Be bold, this is His Majesty's will. Do you, a bunch of unruly people, want to rebel?"

    "His Majesty's decree, this road is temporarily blocked, no entry is allowed, anyone who disobeys the order will be killed without mercy!"

    "Who dares to take another step forward? Don't blame me for being ruthless!"

    The angry shouts of the officers and soldiers started immediately, and the atmosphere at the scene was tense.

    Dongfang Xiuzhe in the carriage frowned slightly. He was a little confused as to what the emperor with the strength of the holy level was planning.

    Is it possible that he wants to monopolize the treasures of "Sky Fire Cliff"?

    But this move is too redundant. How can people who dare to go to "Sky Fire Cliff" be stopped by these officers and soldiers?

    "What should we do? We have to rush to Ochiai Town. Do we have to go back like this?" the old woman said in a panic.He looked down at the little girl beside him.

    Because there were too many people gathering in front, the carriage had to stop temporarily on the side of the road.

    "Master, should we just rush over?" At this moment, Gu Meng tentatively asked.

    Let alone a few hundred elite soldiers, if they want to pass, even if they bring hundreds of thousands of troops, what's the use?

    Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't speak immediately and kept thinking about something. For a while, the entire carriage fell into silence.

    "Ta-ta-ta~"

    At this moment, there was a sound of horse hooves, and it turned out to be the people from "Hutoushan" before. Because their carriage was destroyed, everyone had to come on horseback.

    "Get out of the way, you don't even have eyes anymore, right?"

    "Whoever dares to block the way again, don't blame us for being rude!"

    "My young master is unhappy today, who dares to cause trouble?"

    ""

    The voice arrived before the horse arrived. These people really haven¡¯t learned their lesson and are still so arrogant.

    When Fimisha saw them, she suppressed a smile and asked the old woman: "Who are these people? Are they famous in the Skyfire Empire?"

    The old woman was obviously stunned. She looked at the horses galloping outside the carriage curtain and said after a long time: "Women's people don't have much knowledge and don't know who these people are!"

    "He's so fierce, he must not be a good person!" the little girl interjected.

    But at this moment, the discussion coming from outside answered this question.

    "Oh my God, that flagit's unmistakable, they belong to the 'Hutou Mountain'!"

    "Oh my god, I'm a serious businessman with a small business, and I can't afford to offend them."

    "The famous mountain bandits in the area of ??'Hutou Mountain', even the government can't do anything about them, how come they are here?"

    "I heard that the people in 'Hutou Mountain' are extremely cruel and powerful. If you mess with them, your head will be lost."

    "What are you afraid of? Don't we have officers and soldiers here?"

    ""

    In an instant, the road was cleared, and all the timid people ducked backwards in panic.

    It was not long before the sounds of fighting with officers and soldiers were heard.

    "It's not good, it's killing!"

    "The bandits are fighting with the officers and soldiers. If we don't run away, it will be too late!"

    "Help!"

    In an instant, there was chaos outside.  Shouts, the clash of weapons, the neighing of horses all the sounds intertwined together, instantly making this originally silent mountain road lively.

    The battle did not last long and ended with a tragic defeat of the officers and soldiers, but the bandits from "Hutou Mountain" had already left.

    The road was open again, but there were dozens of corpses of officers and soldiers lying on the ground.

    "Master, we can go over, please sit tight!" Gu Meng's voice sounded, and the carriage started to move again.

    "I didn't expect those people to be bandits. Judging from their appearance, they should be heading to the 'Sky Fire Cliff'. But with that kind of strength, how far can they go?" Dongfang Xiuzhe smiled faintly.

    "I'm scared to death, old woman. I told you that this road is not smooth, and sure enough, something happened." The old man patted his chest and looked frightened.

    "Don't worry, no one can do anything to you in the carriage?" Fimisa comforted with a smile.

    ¡°Fortunately, I met you good people!¡± The old man sighed with emotion.  And he reached out and shook the little granddaughter beside him to show comfort.

    After the commotion caused by the bandits just now, the entire mountain road became much quieter.  Few pedestrians are seen along the way.

    ¡°To thank you both for your great kindness, I have some home-grown wild fruits here. I hope you don¡¯t dislike them!¡±

    As the old man spoke, he took out some bright red fruits from the bag and handed them to Dongfang Xiuzhe and Femisha enthusiastically.

    Dongfang Xiuzhe did not reach out to pick it up, but still looked deep in thought, as if there were many questions waiting for him to think about.

    Femisha had no appetite and wanted to shirk it, but the old man gave her a "please don't dislike it" look.

    "Sister, eat it quickly. It's very sweet. You must have never eaten it before!" The little girl said with a very innocent look, and grabbed one from the old man's hand, put it in her mouth and started chewing it.

    The wheels on the mountain road make a "rumbling" sound, and from time to time, the sounds of birds and animals come from the valley.

    Femisha looked down at the fresh fruit in her hand, which was as red as the setting sun in the evening.??gives people unlimited reverie.

    This was indeed a kind of fruit she had never seen before. Seeing the little girl eating it with relish, she couldn't help but want to taste it, but she hesitated.

    "Don't worry, these old women have been washed many times!" the old man said suddenly.

    Femisha raised her head and explained: "I just liked it a little bit when I saw it, it's not that it's dirty."

    After saying that, he was ready to put it in his mouth.

    At this moment, a cold snort suddenly came from Dongfang Xiuzhe's mouth: "Fimisha, don't you want to know what kind of fruit this is?"

    "What kind of fruit is this?" Femisha looked curiously at Dongfang Xiuzhe, who had a somewhat unkind tone.

    "This fruit is called 'Baibu Changchang Guo'. It is highly toxic and is often used to prepare 'Seven Steps Broken Heart Umbrella' and 'Shangfu Invading Blood Pills' Although with your physique and the effect of 'transforming demons'  "You won't be poisoned to death, but your fighting spirit will be suppressed and it will be difficult to discharge the poison in a short time!" Dongfang Xiuzhe's voice was emotionless.

    Femisha stared straight at the fruit in her hand with some disbelief.

    "Young Master, you are really joking. This is just an ordinary wild fruit grown at home. How could it be poisonous? Didn't my little granddaughter just eat it?" the old man quickly defended.

    Dongfang Xiuzhe sneered at the corner of his mouth, and a cold light appeared in his eyes: "Don't let this drama continue. Although you two hid it very well and cooperated very well, you chose the wrong target!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.  , the novel is better and updated faster!
