Chapter 1499 Leaving the City in Sight
The city is in sight.
When the leader of the Shenyi Sect saw Licheng from afar, he felt relieved.
Only after entering Licheng did everything feel settled for him.
He felt that once he entered Licheng, he already had so many men under his command that he could use them. Even if Xiao Lanyuan was really not dead and was still alive, and was able to rise from the ruins and catch up with him, it would be useless after he entered Licheng.
Xiao Lanyuan's three thousand men were no match for the large number of people he had brought with him to Licheng.
Moreover, this place in Licheng can now be considered his home ground.
In his home court, which he had already arranged, does Xiao Lanyuan still have a chance to win?
Furthermore, Xiao Lanyuan's men haven't caught up with us yet, so he must be really gone.
He heard the grunting sounds of the four sedan bearers.
During the previous day and night, he did not allow the four sedan bearers to stop and rest for a while.
We were on the road for a whole day and night.
Now they were about to reach Licheng, and he couldn't look too embarrassed when entering the city.
So, the leader of the Shenyi Sect thought about it and spoke.
“Stop.”
As soon as he gave this order, the four sedan bearers all breathed a sigh of relief.
Carrying people and marching at such a fast pace, even though they were extraordinary people who had taken medicine, they could not hold on any longer.
The road from Yunjing City to Licheng is not easy to walk.
Especially the front section, which is all mountain roads, and some of them are broken roads that require jumping over ditches.
There were already many roads in various parts of Dongqing that were broken or blocked by fallen rocks.
They had cleared obstacles in some places before, but the leader had ordered that the section from Yunjing City to Licheng should remain as it was.
Maybe it is just to deceive people and not let them know that a large number of people are passing by.
This made it very difficult for the four of them to carry the sedan chair.
That section of the road was quite dangerous, so the leader naturally did not dare to let them stop to rest.
After all, if we really stop, we will most likely be ambushed.
Now that we are here, the terrain is relatively flat and not far from the city. It is a good time to stop and rest.
They put the sedan down.
The curtain of the sedan chair was opened, and a hand stretched out, holding a black lacquer bottle.
"There are four pills in here. Each of you take one."
"yes."
The four sedan bearers had no intention of resisting.
Normal people would usually think about whether letting them take these pills all the time will hurt their health.
They are not normal, so they don’t think about it.
They took the medicine bottle, poured out the pills, and each of them took one. They were even quite happy.
After all, for them who are already exhausted, such pills are a great tonic.
Although the pills are rough, smelly, and not small.
This shows that the leader doesn’t care whether they work hard or not.
But they had gotten used to it, popping the pills into their mouths and even chewing them dry.
Their facial features were squeezed together in agony.
After swallowing the pills, they sat down anywhere to regulate their breathing.
During this breathing exercise, they would subconsciously close their eyes and enter a somewhat mysterious state.
After their breathing had calmed down, the leader of the Shenyi Sect silently opened the curtain and got off the sedan chair.
Such a sedan is very spacious, almost as spacious as a carriage.
It is really impossible for ordinary people to carry such a sedan chair for such a long distance.
After the leader of the Shenyi Sect got out of the sedan chair, his eyes swept over the four sedan bearers.
Even with these four people, he didn't trust them 100%.
