Another voice among them said: "I wonder where those guys took Xia Ji. If we rush there, can we get a share of the pie? Hehe {3w." The man named Guan earlier said: "Don't think about it. That's a good thing, take people's money and eliminate disasters with them. Since you have collected the things that the young master rebelled against, you have to do this job well. After finishing this vote, we can talk about other things." The man surnamed Chi also said: "That's right. , everyone should be more careful and pay attention to whether there are people from Wu Chen and Xiang Lao chasing you around. If you encounter them, stop them if you can. If you can't stop them, send a warning and summons in advance, so that those who rebel against the master can be prepared. Otherwise, if If there is trouble due to omissions, the young master will blame us, and we will all be in trouble." When the others heard this, they remembered the young master's tricks, their expressions changed, they put away their smiles, and nodded in agreement. They then discussed again, decided on the interception route, and then dispersed. When these people walked away, Zhou Chen jumped down from the tree with Xia Ji in his arms, looked at the direction in which they were going, thought about it, then chose an opposite path, and went into the forest without looking back. Three days later, Zhou Chen walked away in the mountains, but Xia Ji's figure was not seen beside him. His figure jumping like a monkey, walking through the flat ground in the dense forest. When passing a big tree that was as thick as an arm's length, Zhou Chen stepped forward and flew up, his figure completely hidden among the dense branches and leaves. After a while, five well-dressed men chased after him. When they reached the foot of the tree, one of them stopped and squatted down to identify the traces on the ground. The next moment, his face suddenly changed, he raised his head suddenly, and shouted: "In" Before the last two words 'on the tree' could be uttered, a figure floated down from above and flashed into the crowd like a ghost. , crackled four times in a row, and the four people behind him turned into four corpses before they even made a sound. The first person was shocked, turned around and ran away, but before he could get far. Zhou Chen's toes touched the bronze sword on the ground. The bronze sword flew out with a roar and nailed the man to a rock. Zhou Chen killed five people in a row without changing his expression. He stood still. He listened carefully to what was going on around him. Then he ran non-stop to the left A moment later, another pair of seven people died in his hands, Zhou Chen did not stop. He continued to wander around, leaving corpses everywhere he went. In the end, those who pursued him also discovered that more and more people had lost contact. They were so frightened that they did not dare to separate. Gradually they came together and stopped, unwilling to move on. At this time, Zhou Chen hid behind a cluster of shrubs and quietly looked at the team of more than a hundred people in front. They were heavily guarded and even dug trenches around the team and cut down some trees as a barrier Zhou Chengong gathered together and listened to the movement in front. These people seemed to have a dispute. There were three leaders who seemed to be shouting loudly. They had their own opinions and it seemed that no one could convince the other. In the end, the three of them broke up unhappily. It didn't take long. , the team of more than a hundred people was divided into two, and one part left the camp and returned the same way, while the remaining people were also at a loss, not knowing whether to go or stay. At night, Zhou Chen sneaked into the camp and killed the leader, a man named Long Ke, in the tent. The next day, someone discovered Long Ke's body. Anyone who heard about it before dawn was accused of being murdered. Terrified, a group of people rushed out of the camp in a panic, plunged into the dense forest, and fled into the distance Zhou Chen solved the trouble behind him and made sure that there were no more pursuers. He had no interest in the frightened stragglers. Then he turned back into the mountains. After determining a direction, he walked on a remote path in the mountains. . Along the way, there are undulating mountains and beautiful scenery, ancient trees and strange rocks, and steep and dangerous peaks. The scenery is endless. At sunrise, the mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, as if they have become a land of immortals, which makes Zhou Chen feel like he wants to live here. It seemed like a good idea for a while. Half a day later, he came to the foot of a green hill. Looking up, he could see a simple thatched cottage. The thatched hut is on a hillside, overlooking the vast rivers and mountains nearby. Zhou Chenjian was very knowledgeable just by choosing the location of this hut. It can be seen that the owner here is broad-minded and not an ordinary person. Stepping up the mountain, he soon arrived in front of the thatched cottage. Zhou Chen called twice as usual, but no one responded. He pushed the door gently, and the wooden door opened. Inside, except for a few couches made of tree trunks, and hanging Some kudzu on the wall and nothing else. From these few things alone, you can tell that the poverty and indifference of living here is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Zhou Chen did not enter the house presumptuously, but walked out. The tables and chairs in the house clearly appeared in his mind. They were simple and practical in shape, not luxurious, but they gave people a sense of originality and craftsmanship. This isIt's a very strange feeling, because normally, only the exquisite and gorgeous east facade can give people a heavenly impression, but the few couches in the room just now seemed to be extremely rough, and even the entire room had no appearance at all. The inconspicuous thatched cottage gives people a sense of ingenuity upon closer inspection, a kind of artistic conception that is as clever as clumsy. Even though Zhou Chen has seen the things in the house more than once, every time he sees them, he will have some understanding. Everything in the universe has a common state at a certain level. At this moment, footsteps sounded from behind the house, and two people came out from behind. The first woman suddenly saw her appear in front of her. Zhou Chen was startled at first. The next moment, a joyful look appeared on his face, and he ran quickly. Come over. "Sir, are youare you okay?" This woman is Mrs. Xia Jiji. She no longer wears the gorgeous dress she used to wear. Instead, she has become a linen dress with a full head of hair tied behind her head. , pinned up with a wooden hairpin, the enchanting color on her face faded away, but became a bit fresher and more ethereal, which made people¡¯s eyes light up! Zhou Chen shook his head and said it was okay, then smiled and said: "But a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals will naturally not be able to play tricks in front of your young master. It is not troublesome to send them away." Xia Ji saw that Zhou Chen looked relaxed, and it was not like While joking, the tension in my heart suddenly disappeared, and I couldn't help but feel happy. A broad and peaceful voice suddenly sounded from Xia Ji's left side: "Little brother, these days after leaving, this Miss Xia has been thinking about you very much!" Zhou Chen looked at the woman in front of him, Xia Ji nodded with a smile, without the slightest hint of concern. Shy and embarrassed, it seems that her worry about Zhou Chen is real, but it does not involve any relationship between men and women, it is more like the care between friends.
