Chapter 296 A Strong and Open-minded Person
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two arrived at the canyon and looked down to the bottom. It was surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
They listened for the sounds below, just the flow of the river and the wind.
The three of them acted cautiously and climbed carefully from the top to the bottom. When they were almost at the bottom, they heard someone running into the valley.
At this point, the three of them no longer wanted to retreat, and were also forced to stay away by the swords in front of them.
"The government's lackeys are hot on our trail."
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two had originally been thinking of avoiding the enemy, but when they heard the shouting of the person coming, they attacked almost at the same time.
Shi Zelan reached out and grabbed the sword that was thrust at her, then stabbed it back with her backhand. Even after the sword had thrust in, she didn't even bother to pull it out.
Shi Zelan stretched out his hand to brush away the mist in front of him and saw more than a dozen men in black rushing towards the three of them.
Shi Xiaoliu passed the message to Shi Zelan: "They are all people from the gold mine."
Shi Zelan doesn't want to kill, but when someone wants to kill her, she will not show mercy.
The men in black did not take Shi Xiaoliu and the other two seriously. Their swords directly blocked their way.
Shi Xiaoliu was not polite at all to the person who rushed up to him. He drew his sword and stabbed him.
The world has not yet reached the point where the officials are forcing the people to rebel. They are clearly born bad guys who want to climb up by stepping on the flesh and blood of others.
Xia Yu sighed and took the sword to fight back, while advising others: "Retreat, we don't want to kill."
Seeing that more and more people were gathering around them, Shi Zelan asked directly, "Have we disturbed a bandit's den?"
Shi Xiaoliu felt that the two of them were talking too much: "Others want to kill us to silence us, why are you still being polite to them?"
After a while, more than ten people fell to the bottom of the valley. Shi Xiaoliu and the other two examined their injuries and after discussing with each other, they decided to send these people to the government office in the town.
Whether they can survive is the government's business.
There is a small path at the bottom of the valley leading to the town, but it is quite difficult to walk on and it is easy to run into people going up the mountain.
Normally, Shi Xiaoliu and the other two would not take this path, but now they can't care less.
They simply pulled out some branches and tied up these people. Shi Xiaoliu carried two bundles of people and walked quickly along the path.
Xia Yu picked up the other two bundles of people. After Shi Zelan tied up the swords and knives, he didn't care about the situation at the bottom of the valley.
When she was about to leave, she glanced at the center of the river and said quickly: "Little demon, hide yourself well.
Otherwise, you can go further up. ”
After she finished speaking, she picked up the two bundles of swords and headed towards the small path.
After looking around, she saw that no one was going up or down the mountain. She tapped her feet a few times, caught up with Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu, and put invisibility talismans on them.
Shi Xiaoliu said to Xia Yu and Shi Zelan: "Since the people in the secular world can't see us, we don't have to worry too much.
While there are so many people here, send them directly to the town gate. ”
The three of them turned onto the official road and ran forward in a flash. When they met two or three people on the road, they all felt dizzy.
The town gate was open, and the city guards checked people entering the town. Occasionally, if they met someone they knew, they would ask questions with concern.
"Uncle San, are you going into town to sell vegetables today?"
"Xiao Qizi, your mother asked me to tell you something. When you are free, please go home."
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two threw the things in their hands to the town gate and said, "How dare you, the bandits on the mountain, try to assassinate us."
Shi Xiaoliu spoke in a hoarse voice, and then he passed the message to Xia Yu and Shi Zelan, "Let's go to Yangzhou Prefecture to check the situation."
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two quickly left the noisy town gate, and chaos ensued behind them.
"Quick, go inform the mayor, something big happened at the town gate."
When Shi Xiaoliu and the other two rushed to Yangzhou Prefecture, the mayor had already arranged for officers to go there on horseback to report the case, at least there were three groups of people and swords at the town gate.
The mayor directly arranged for the horse-drawn carriages to load the goods and transport them all towards Yangzhou Prefecture.
The mayor and the officers said, "I can't take care of so many things. Let's send it to the provincial capital and ask the prefect to make the decision."
As for the life and death of the two bundles of people, the people in the town all heard the sound in the air. They were the ones who wanted to kill people, and that's why they were killed instead.
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two arrived outside Yangzhou City. They did not enter the city, but found a remote place and tore off the invisibility talisman.
The three of them sat in the tea stall outside the city gate waiting for the town officers to come and report the case. The tea was extremely bitter. After Shi Xiaoliu and the other two took a sip, they couldn't swallow the second sip.
But the business of the tea stalls outside the city is much better than that of the tea stalls near the city gate inside the city.
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two waited for a while and heard the sound of hurried horse hooves coming from the official road.
"Something happened. Something serious happened."
Someone in the tea shed shouted, then quickly covered his mouth and kept silent.
When Shi Xiaoliu and the other two saw the officers riding into the city on horseback, they looked at each other and decided to go back.
When they got up and left, many people in the tea stall crowded to the city gate and looked inside.
They also tried to ask the soldiers guarding the city: "Sir, which town was that man from just now?"
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two had no choice but to follow the crowd to the city gate, where they heard the soldiers guarding the city say impatiently, "Let's go, let's go.
Don't you have anything to do?
Don’t you need to take the guests home? ”
The people at the city gate walked back, and Shi Xiaoliu and the other two followed the crowd and walked back.
On their way home, they saw the town officials driving a horse-drawn carriage quickly towards Yangzhou Prefecture.
"Get out of here, get out of here quickly."
The carriages in front gave way one after another, and one of them was brave enough to ask, "Sir, what happened?"
"Blood. There was blood falling from their car."
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two walked forward without looking back. When they returned to the top of the mountain, it was almost 3 p.m.
After the three of them went back to their rooms to pack up, they sat back on the edge of the mountain to enjoy the breeze.
Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan, "Sister Lan, you can meditate on the rooftop tonight. If anything happens, I can take care of you."
"good."
Shi Zelan agreed to Shi Xiaoliu's request. She said to Shi Xiaoliu, "Xiaoliu, I am not someone who has never experienced anything."
Shi Xiaoliu glanced at her, then turned to Xia Yu and said, "Xia Yu, do you want to meditate on the roof at night?"
Xia Yu nodded and said, "Okay.
If anyone feels uncomfortable, please speak up so that we can understand each other. ”
Shi Zelan said to them seriously, "When I embarked on this path of cultivation, I made all kinds of preparations."
Shi Xiaoliu exchanged glances with Xia Yu and said to her: "On this path of cultivation, those who make it to the end are strong and open-minded people."
“I think I am a strong and open-minded person.
For people with spiritual roots, the chances of spiritual energy entering the body vary, but as long as the spiritual energy enters the body, cultivation will not be too difficult.
For me, every step was extremely difficult and there was almost no hope. ”
