Chapter 611: Guarding (Part 1)
Gao Yi was shocked - the opponent's martial arts were much better than his!
He was both angry and furious, but he made a quick decision and immediately turned around and ran out the door!
As long as we can get out of here, we'll be safe!
Unfortunately, when he turned around, he found that the door had been closed for a long time. A man in black tights was standing there with a sword in his arms, looking casual.
Eyes met.
Lian Zhou grinned.
"I have some skills, but not much."
He didn't even make it through three moves.
Gao Yi was extremely angry, and at the same time, he felt a deep fear in his heart - at such a close distance, he hadn't even noticed that someone was ambushing him!
He looked back and saw that the man who had just fought with him had put away his sword and looked indifferent.
"If I had known this, you could have come alone. Why would you have called me?"
Lu Yu took some time out to come here. He originally thought that these two people from Qingzhou must have some relationship with Miss Ye Er. If he kidnapped them, it would be a way to protect Miss Ye Er.
The result... is so weak.
Lian Zhou shrugged, "Who could have thought of that? But since you're here, why don't you help? I'll take care of the fat guy and leave this to me."
After all, it's quite difficult to tie up such a fat man.
Lu Yu: “…”
Zuo Ci had already been frightened.
He looked around and found that the boy had already run away. He didn't know the identities of the two men who were talking, but from what they said, it was clear that they didn't take him seriously!
Zuo Ci swallowed his saliva, forced himself to stand firm, pointed at them and stammered, "Who are you? How dare you be so audacious! Do you know who I am? Be careful, or I will not spare you when I get back—"
Lian Zhou scratched his ears impatiently, "Shut up. I came here only because I know who you are. Otherwise, who do you think has so much free time?"
Zuo Ci choked back the rest of his words.
Only then did he realize that something was wrong - this was the Jiang family, and it was not normal for these two people to appear here quietly!
This, this is a trap!
Zuo Ci was truly frightened now. His face turned pale and his legs trembled.
"I, but I never provoked you, why are you picking on me? I, I have money! I'll give you whatever you want! I—"
Bang!
Lu Yu couldn't stand it anymore and knocked the man unconscious with the hilt of his sword.
Zuo Ci rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
Gao Yi's eyes suddenly fixed, and he looked up in shock, "You, you are the Black Cavalry!"
It is not a question, but an affirmative statement.
Lian Zhou smiled, "Oh, you have a good eye. It looks like you're familiar with more than just the capital city?"
The Black Cavalry followed Chen Yanchuan and only returned to the capital in the past year. They were on the move most of the time.
Gao Yi recognized their origins at a glance, which showed that he was very familiar with the Black Cavalry.
How could a mere attendant of the magistrate have such good eyesight?
Gao Yi's heart sank. After confirming their identities, he secretly regretted that he was too impatient! Just one sentence and you exposed yourself!
But there's no point in saying this now.
The Black Cavalry's secret ambush proved that they had been targeting him for a long time!
Gao Yi's mouth felt dry, his heart was in his throat, and his tone became much softer.
"I, I... I have never provoked you. Is there any misunderstanding?"
Lian Zhou sneered.
"It's useless to tell me these things. You know whether you have done anything shameful or not."
Seeing that he was about to draw his sword, Gao Yi suddenly became anxious.
“How dare you! This is the capital city! Under the feet of the emperor! You are from the Jiang family, and you dare to act so arrogantly!? And Lord Zuo Ci is an official appointed by the court! You——”
Lian Zhou looked at him as if he was a fool.
"You also know that this is the capital city?"
Gao Yi was suddenly speechless.
Capital city... The Black Cavalry dared to do this, they must have obtained permission from above!
A ridiculous guess came to his mind.
Could it be——
"If you have any grievances, just go back inside and talk about it." Lian Zhou sighed and smiled, "I just don't know if your master would come to rescue you if he knew about it."
…
Kip Town.
After a strong wind, the ground in the city was covered with yellow sand again.
The sun was hidden behind thick gray clouds, and it was gloomy.
The cold north wind passed through the rough and dilapidated city walls, making a whistling sound like ghosts and wolves howling.
At the city gate, a team of soldiers came to relieve guard.
"It's finally time." The soldier who had been on guard for a day laughed, "I've been standing here since midnight yesterday, and I'm almost blown dry!"
The other person wiped out the sand in his mouth and rubbed his face, "Isn't it? Who can stand this barren place?"
"Hey? You can't say such a definite thing! I think Afeng is very happy about it!" The man who spoke laughed, "Every time we switch defenses, he is the most active!"
After saying this, the group of people all looked towards the end of the line.
He was a boy who looked no more than a teenager. He had only been there for a few months, and due to wind and sun, his originally fair skin had become much darker and rougher.
Only through those clear eyes, one can still vaguely recognize some youthful spirit.
Compared with this group of experienced soldiers, he is indeed still a young boy.
However, no one bullied or excluded him because of his young age.
It was not because he came with Feng Zhang, but because he had only been here for a few days and killed the enemy for the first time on the battlefield!
This is the border, what matters is bloodiness and courage!
If you can fight in battle and kill the enemy, you are a man!
Therefore, when Ye Yunfeng first arrived here, he quickly got along well with everyone and adapted very well.
Another person teased, "Isn't that right? Our Afeng is going to be a general in the future! He's not like you guys who just spend all day idling around!"
Ye Yunfeng smiled indifferently.
This place is bitterly cold, the soldiers stationed here live a boring life, and supplies are scarce, so they can only engage in verbal battles.
He said, "I still have a pot of Huangshi wine that someone gave me. Whoever you go back with can help me deal with it."
“I’ll go!”
After hearing this, a group of people ran away.
Those who stayed behind all looked resentful.
"A Feng, you are so unkind! You give it to them and not to us?"
"That's right! Are we still brothers?"
"This wine is so hard to come by! You're the only one who doesn't take it seriously and always gives it away to others."
They didn't know Ye Yunfeng's identity, but they could guess that he came from a good family, had no shortage of money, and his family often sent him a lot of things.
Every time, a large group of people drool.
No one knew why he gave up the life of a distinguished young master at home and came here to suffer.
However, Ye Yunfeng was very generous and it was a good deal for them.
Ye Yunfeng raised his eyebrows.
"Why drink wine when you are guarding the gate? What if there is an enemy and drinking makes things difficult?"
