Chapter 32 The End of Qingping (Part 1)

After dawn, the thunderstorm that had been raging all night finally stopped completely, and Sun Tu reappeared in the secluded woods. This made Yaer, who had not been sleeping all night because of worry and anxiety, finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Third brother, you are back."

"Since my third brother has promised you that I will not lie to you when I come back in the morning." Sun Tu touched her hair docilely, and then he clasped his fists to Chao Gai and others who had not rested all night and thought he was grateful.

Chao Gai smiled, but did not ask if he succeeded. The answer was only known from the fact that Sun Tu could return safely. He was just a little emotional. The boy in front of him was brave and had high skills, which was indeed far beyond what he thought.

Just as Sun Tu planned to part with the other party, Chao Gai sent someone a package: "Sanlang saved me before, naturally, it was not possible to offset it with such a little busyness. Here is a little bit of intention, I hope you don't refuse."

Sun Tu did not act hypocritical. After these things, he and Chao Gai had a life-long friendship. This little money exchange was really nothing, so he took it casually, and didn't even look at how much money was put inside, so he put it in a donkey cart: "Chao Baozheng, then there will be a meeting in the mountains and rivers, so I'll say goodbye."

"Sanlang is careful all the way. The water in Bianjing City is much deeper than that in a small county like ours." Chao Gai also bowed and instructed. In fact, he had no experience in this.

Sun Tu smiled casually and got on the shaft of the car, slammed the whip and drove the donkey forward. Although Liu Yuan was dead, since he brought Ya'er out, it was impossible to send her back. Perhaps it was difficult or even dangerous for most people in this era to travel to Tokyo hundreds of miles away, but for him, it was just a journey of self-driving.

Watching Sun Tu's donkey cart return to the official road and joining the pedestrians coming and going, Chao Gai's eyes flashed with emotion: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't believe that this was a young man who was only sixteen or seventeen years old. With his ability, he might have been able to do something that others could not have imagined after going to Bianjing..."

&&&&&

In a blink of an eye, the two of them had been traveling west for several days. They were about to leave the territory of Shandong, and the customs and customs were different from those in Yuncheng County. All of this seemed particularly novel in Yaer, who had never left the county town, and she kept asking Sun Tu something, and she was just a curious baby.

Seeing that the little girl's body was not uncomfortable because she was far away from her hometown, and even the remaining pain had improved, Sun Tu was naturally happy, knowing that the decision he had brought her out was completely correct. When he was in a good mood, he answered all the questions and explained to Ya'er that all the things she heard were very fresh, which made the little girl amazed all the way.

But when he came to this small town at the junction of Shandong Road and Hebei Road, Sun Tu, who was talking and laughing all the way, suddenly became solemn, which made Ya'er nervous, and he didn't know what was going on.

Of course she didn't know that shortly after entering this Dongming town, Sun Tu obviously felt that there were more eyes beside him and always staring at him. But when he turned around and searched, he had found nothing. If he hadn't believed in his intuition and prediction of danger, he would even think that this was a dark ghost.

Although Liu Yuan has indeed been eliminated, the people he sent to hunt him out earlier did not know about this, so he naturally would not give up Yan Lu's pursuit. He did not have this feeling before, so Sun Tu could be sure that the other party had been waiting here for a long time, probably because he wanted to kill himself outside the Shandong territory.

When he was playing in the foot shop in the town, Sun Tu had already made a decision: "We must draw them out as soon as possible, otherwise it will be more dangerous if we are too passive all day long." Thinking in his mind, he had already begun to think about the overall plan.

The idea was that after using a bowl of soup cakes, which was later noodles, Sun Tu took Yaer to set off again, and their journey surprised the shopkeepers and other customers.

There is also a way to go out when traveling outside. Because of the vast land and sparse population in ancient times, it is very particular about how many trips a day are. Generally speaking, in order to facilitate people who go out, the government will set up post stations next to the official road, so that at night, people can have a place to live, and often there will be a post station thirty or forty miles.

But there are exceptions. For example, if there is a town in the middle of thirty or forty miles, there is no need to set up an inn, because pedestrians can go directly to the city and find a place to stay. When you get up early tomorrow, you will be able to arrive at the next inn before dark.

Dongming Town is like this. It is now noon. Even though the summer is long, it will be difficult to run dozens of miles before dark. So when Sun Tu and the others were about to leave, the shopkeeper was willing to come forward and persuade him.

But Sun Tu ignored the other party's attempt to keep him. He paid the meal and took Ya'er out of the shop, then drove the donkey cart and embarked on the road west again, leaving only a wave of suspicion among everyone.

Sure enough, as the sky gradually darkened, there was no more than half a pedestrian on the road, and the two of them were in the wilderness. This made Yaer, who was already a little strange, feel even more panicked, and she couldn't help but poke her head out of the window of the car: "Three Brother..." she looked at Sun Tu.

Sun Tu turned around and smiled: "Ya'er, don't panic. No matter what happens later, just stay in the carriage. There will be no problem!" As he spoke, he had shot the picture Zeng.

Shen Laoqi's compound bow was placed at hand, and there was also a pot of feather arrows that came from Chao Gai.

After walking along the official road for a while, Sun Tu's ears suddenly rose up and his face became extremely solemn. He held the reins with one hand and let the donkey cart stop slowly. He quickly explored the bow and arrow in his hand, and a warning light flashed in his eyes.

Sure enough, an urgent footstep sounded from behind. When Sun Tu heard the sound, he saw four or five men strode with a handful of Park Knife, all of them were full of murderous aura, and they were obviously coming to trouble themselves!

When these people saw Sun Tu stopping the donkey cart, they were even more happy. They shouted first: "Sun San, today is your death date, come and take your life!" With this roar, the few people had already rushed up, and the pao sword in their hands was half a length, with wood as the handle, and the cold light shining was raised higher than the top, slashing with the sound of wind. Now there was no figure in front and behind the official road, so they were naturally not afraid of making too much noise.

After seeing this scene, Ya'er in the carriage screamed, but her body could not move at all. Hearing the little girl's screams further aroused the fierceness of these people, making their smiles look even more ferocious.

However, their target was not at all panic and fearful at this time. He was still sitting on the shaft of the donkey cart, with a disdainful sneer on the corner of his mouth. Seeing them rushing, he had no intention of getting out of the car to fight.

How can we tolerate this? These men are all fierce characters who are used to being rampant in Yuncheng County. How can we bear this humiliation? We put our strength into a more urgent effort.

But there were still people faster and more urgent than them! Just as the few people had arrived in front of the car and were about to surround Sun Tu, a bowstring suddenly sounded in the deep dark night on the left. In a flash, a feather arrow flew straight towards Sun Tu's neck like a thunderbolt.

This arrow came too suddenly and the timing was just right. It was when Sun Tu needed to deal with the fierce men who rushed towards him, and it was almost impossible to distract him from taking care of him! The archer who had made a hand on the side showed a confident smile on his face. He felt that his arrow would definitely hit the target and shot Sun Tu directly on the spot!

But as soon as his smile appeared, Sun Tu, who was originally sitting on the shaft of the car, suddenly leaned down and fell from the car in a strange posture. He actually flashed this fatal arrow at the critical moment. It seemed as if he had expected this change, and the one who was still moving just now was like a mountain!

How is this possible?

Whether it was the sneak attacker on the side or as a suspicious soldier, the big men who attracted Sun Tu's attention showed an incredible look. But the facts in front of them clearly told them that their wishful thinking had been lost!
