Chapter 287: Escort Team, Bandits



The Central Plains is vast and rich in resources.

There are not only towering mountains and rocky basins, but also dense forests and vast plains.

The eight major sects that Bai Ningxuan mentioned are each located in a beautiful place with picturesque mountains and clear waters, with pleasant scenery and unique landscapes.

For example, the Bodhidharma Temple is located on Fomian Mountain, which is a famous mountain in the Central Plains and is majestic and magnificent.

The Ice and Fire Sect is located near the northwest of the Central Plains, on a volcano, and close to the northern snow mountain range. It is a place where ice and fire are intertwined all year round and the climate is unstable.

Jianmen Pass is a world-renowned holy land for swordsmen. Many swordsmen are proud to be able to learn sword at Jianmen Pass. It is said that the leader of Jianmen Pass, Jian Kuangren, is a master, but the truth is unknown.

In addition, the other five sects also had great backgrounds. Bai Ningxuan seemed to have nothing to do, so she told them everything she knew in great detail, which Qin Yuesheng found very useful.

The two of them chatted while riding their horses, so that they would not feel too bored on the journey.

After another ten miles, there were more mountains and forests on the roadside, and the scattered stones on the road became inexplicably more and more prominent, which greatly affected the horse's running, so that Qin Yuesheng's speed slowed down a lot. Otherwise, if he kept urging the horse to gallop on this kind of road, it would easily cause the horse to trip over the stones on the road and stumble and fall.

Qin Yuesheng stretched out his hand and waved it, and his internal force burst out wildly, sweeping all the stones on the road to the sides of the official road like a broom.

No matter whether it was a small stone weighing a few pounds or a large stone weighing a hundred pounds, in front of Qin Yuesheng, they were all as light as paper.

Not long after, Qin Yuesheng saw a stopped escort team on the road ahead.

There were twelve horse-drawn carriages in this escort team, all of which were loaded with iron boxes tied up with layers of iron chains and sealed.

Beside the carriage, escorts holding spears and short swords stood guard. Some of them were carrying flags embroidered with the word "Yun Teng", which should be the name of this escort agency.

Dozens of people were blocking the road and refused to move forward, which naturally made the road seem very congested. Qin Yuesheng was puzzled and quickly looked with his Biluo pupil to see what was going on.

You have to know that when the escort agency is escorting goods, it emphasizes speed and safety. Qin Yuesheng's family relies on the escort agency as its main business. He knows that the escort team will never stop and waste time unless they encounter something that cannot be solved.

As expected, right in front of the escort team, an extremely thick tree trunk had fallen for some unknown reason, with two huge rocks, each one person tall, sandwiched between the two ends of the trunk, making it impossible for the escort team's carriage to pass.

At this time, the escorts were chopping down trees with their weapons, but if they continued at this speed, it would probably take at least two or three hours to finish.

The approach of Qin Yuesheng and the other man instantly attracted the attention of the escorts. They stared at Qin Yuesheng vigilantly and secretly tightened their weapons.

"If these people don't go over there, we have no way to go over there either. We can only help along the way." Bai Ningxuan said softly.

Qin Yuesheng nodded and was about to take action when he suddenly heard a long whistle coming from the mountains and forests on both sides of the road, and fireworks rose from them. There was a lot of noise for a while, and he suspected that a large group of people were approaching this side.

"Set up the formation!"

Suddenly shouts came from the escort team over there, and all the escorts gathered all the carriages together, and then formed an iron barrel formation to surround the carriages.

At the same time, a large number of masked men with knives rushed out of the forest. They were dressed in coarse linen clothes and looked like bandits.

"Yun Teng people, I've been keeping an eye on you for days. I thought you'd take the route to Bashu, but you've sneaked over to Jiangnan instead. If you know what's good for you, hand over the things you're escorting to me as soon as possible, and I'll let you go."

Many bandits surrounded the escort team, and a fat man as fat as a mountain of meat walked out and shouted.

Unlike the others who were holding knives, this man was carrying a mountain axe on his shoulder, which looked like it weighed about two or three hundred pounds.

The incident happened suddenly, so Qin Yuesheng stopped what he was doing and decided to stand aside and watch.

A man also walked out from the Yunteng Escort Team. He had white hair on his temples and a righteous face, and he had the demeanor of a leader.

"I don't know which faction you belong to, but since our Yunteng Escort Agency was founded, we have been making friends all over the world, and we have many good friends among the outlaws. This convoy is very important to our agency, so I regret that I cannot agree to it."

"If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished. If you don't hand over the Chixia Sutra, I will kill you today. Brothers, kill them!" The fat man shouted, his fat body trembling, and he raised the axe and gave the order.

After saying that, all the bandits ran out with knives in their hands and rushed towards the escort team.

A fight is about to begin.

"Boss, there are two more over there. They don't look like they are from the Yunteng Escort Agency. Hey, this girl is pretty. Why don't we capture her as well?" A skinny bandit next to the fat man pointed at where Qin Yuesheng was and said.

The fat man took a look and said calmly: "Don't cause trouble. We only want to deal with the Yunteng Escort Agency. Don't cause trouble for me."

"I understand." The skinny monkey responded quickly.

kill!

The bandits and the escorts immediately started a fight of all means. These people were all ordinary warriors. Although the bandits had more people, it meant there were also more ordinary people. Within a few breaths, casualties occurred.

To be qualified to be a bodyguard, one must have some skills in martial arts. The bodyguards from the Yunteng Escort Agency raised their swords and slashed them. Some bandits had no idea how to defend or dodge, and were instantly hit by the swords. One by one, their necks were cut off or their arms were broken, and their injuries were very serious.
