Xu Huizhu and Jia Dao looked at me puzzled, while I held one by one hand and ran towards the direction of the man.
When I just picked up the piece of cloth and tried to use it to cover my wallet, I felt something was wrong because the texture of the piece of cloth was very familiar.
Now that I think about it, the background color of that dirty piece of cloth is actually yellow, and the material of that piece of cloth is satin, and the satin is actually the same material as the yellow satin cotton-padded jacket worn by the old man with the severed hand.
.
You know, warriors like us, who are both internal and external, have extremely sensitive hands. If the piece of cloth in the hand of the sloppy man is the same as the cloth of the old man's cotton-padded jacket, it's hard for me not to believe that there is no relationship between them.
Fortunately, the man did not go far. Looking from a distance, we saw that he walked into a supermarket, and we followed him into the supermarket. Under the cover of the supermarket shelves, we saw the sloppy man buying a lot of spices in the spice section.
Spicy pepper, pepper, aniseed, soy sauce, yellow sauce, chili sauce, sesame oil, etc., as well as a large amount of soybean oil. The sloppy man bought the things, paid the money at the checkout counter, and went straight out. We hurriedly followed him from a distance.
Xu Huizhu couldn't help but curiously asked, "This person bought so many condiments, does he own a restaurant?"
I replied, "Most likely."
"But he is so dirty. If he really opens a restaurant, I won't eat the food he cooks." Xu Huizhu frowned. In fact, later on, not only did Xu Huizhu eat the food of the sloppy man, but she also ate it in a big way.
We followed the sloppy man from a distance. The sloppy man went straight to the countryside. We didn't dare to follow too closely. Shaanxi is a famous Loess Plateau with very little rainfall and sparse vegetation, causing serious soil erosion. It is very difficult to follow a person.
It's difficult, because it's easy to spot if it's unobstructed. Fortunately, the road the sloppy man took is very remote, and the road becomes more and more desolate as we go, with more and more trees.
Xu Huizhu said unconsciously, "Is this person's restaurant located in the countryside?"
Jia Dao quickly replied, "That must be the case, otherwise why would he take the condiments and walk to the countryside?"
I don't think so, because the natural conditions in Shaanxi have not been very good since ancient times, and the harvests of crops are not high. They are not as abundant and wealthy as those in Jiangnan, so they have naturally developed simple and natural customs.
Someone once asked a fellow from Shaanxi what was the most delicious. The fellow replied, spicy noodles!
The preparation of spicy peppers in Shaanxi is very simple. Chop the spicy peppers, add a little oil, and stir-fry the spicy noodles in a hot iron pot. Then, the aroma of the spicy peppers will come out, and it will be fragrant and fragrant.
Although there is less oil, it is not as oily as the red oil in Sichuan. However, the aroma of Shaanxi spicy pepper is unique, and it has a different flavor.
I just mentioned that the fellows from Shaanxi said that spicy noodles are the most delicious, which is naturally an exaggeration. But the custom of Shaanxi is exactly like this. I am not saying that the simple custom of Shaanxi people is not good, but on the contrary, it is extremely
It's a compliment. I think this way, I feel more at ease and comfortable than those who eat and drink a lot.
Just because I understand the simplicity of Shaanxi people, I don’t think this sloppy man opened a restaurant in the countryside. But if the sloppy man didn’t open a restaurant in the countryside, then why would he buy so many condiments? Is it because there are weddings and funerals in the countryside?
?But where did the sloppy man get Qin Banliang's money and the piece of yellow cloth? Did he rob the tomb? I was puzzled.
The road went further and further, and became more and more remote. In the end, there was no decent road at all. We followed a little closer, because the figure of the slovenly man disappeared and appeared in the shadow of the thorn trees, and we were afraid that he would be killed.
Lost it.
But suddenly, the sloppy man disappeared at the foot of the mountain.
We stopped and looked forward carefully, but there was no movement at the foot of the mountain. Where had the man gone? We walked forward quickly, followed the footsteps to the mountain col, and suddenly discovered a path between the mountains, and a cliff on the side of the path.
All the branches growing on the tree were cut off. It seemed that the sloppy man had taken this path.
We walked out of the crack in the mountain wall, and our eyes suddenly became brighter. In front of us was a small basin. There were more than a dozen houses built with branches, dead grass, and mud on the basin. They were called houses, but I really don’t know how to describe them.
Those buildings are good. These buildings look like the simple residences of ancient people. Looking around, there is smoke rising from every residence.
Xu Huizhu and Jia Dao and I couldn't help but be stunned, as if we had traveled through time. How could there still be such crude buildings in this era? Even if we don't live in a building, we should be able to build some ordinary bungalows.
We were curious and slowly sneaked towards these buildings. When we approached the shack-like buildings, I felt the danger.
I suddenly stopped, raised my foot, and kicked back violently. Xu Huizhu, who was always agile, also quickly punched back. Only Jia Dao stared at our strange behavior.
But just like in a movie, my kick and Xu Huizhu's fist stopped unexpectedly. Jia Dao also slowly turned around, and we saw that several people behind us had already cornered us.
Someone asked in confusion, Mr. Long, why don’t you feel that you are very good at kung fu? Are you so stubborn after being forced by a few people? You are nothing more than that.
First of all, I also admit that I feel that my kung fu is pretty good, and it is not a problem to deal with a dozen big men. However, I can't take action against these people behind me, because I feel that these people seem to be well-trained.
The individual postures are not good-looking, but they are definitely postures that can really kill people. The postures they adopted have completely blocked the attack direction of me and Xu Huizhu, and even Jia Dao, who does not know martial arts, was blocked by them.
The most important thing is that they all have swords in their hands! Sharp swords!
What they hold is no ordinary sword.
Nowadays, in urban parks, people do morning exercises every morning, and many people exercise with swords. In my opinion, the swords in their hands have lost the meaning of swords and can only be called handicrafts.
A real sword is extremely sharp, and a real swordsman is one who 'kills a person in ten steps, leaves no trace for a thousand miles, flees when the matter is over, and hides his body and name'. These people who forced us are like real swordsmen.
Swordsmen, and their swords are also peerless swords!
Because I have practiced martial arts with a master since I was a child, and I have seen many experts who use swords, I am certainly no stranger to swords. I have seen many good swords, but none of them can compare to the swords in the hands of these people.
Yes, the swords in the hands of these people are definitely sharp weapons for killing people. Moreover, the style of the swords is simple, and it looks like a top-quality ancient sword at first glance. How did these people get so many swords at once? You know, the arbitrary here
Every sword is a shocking and priceless sword.
I retracted my foot, Xu Huizhu also retracted his fist, and Jia Dao also slowly turned around. In fact, we have to deal with these people. If Xu Huizhu and I join forces, we will not be defeated. However, there is some movement near the shack.
.
We turned to the shack and saw the slovenly man standing in front of the shack, surrounded by some people.
Looking at these people, I felt like I had traveled back in time to ancient times, because except for the slovenly man who wore a tattered military coat, the others were all wearing leather armor like the people behind us who were holding us down with swords. The people in front of the shack were holding
There were no swords, as if they didn't bother to draw them, and their swords were straddled on their waists.
I looked at the clothes they were wearing, and they were leather armors!
Leather armor! It is a type of armor and is the attire of ancient Chinese soldiers. As early as the Warring States Period, armies of various princes had already popularized armor. Armor is armor, and armor is a helmet. These people only wore leather armor, not any
Except for the slovenly man with his hair hanging loose, everyone else's hair was neatly tied up, with a hairpin inserted into the head and combed into a bun.
Leather armor became famous all over the world because of one of Qin Shihuang's vanguard troops. When they fought, they only wore armor and no helmets. They did not care about their lives. They were extremely fierce and invincible. And those Qin soldiers wore leather leather armor. And these people
The costumes look just like the terracotta warriors and horses in the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum Museum in Xi'an.
The slovenly man glared at us and shouted loudly, "What are you trying to do by following me all the way here?"
When we heard the sloppy man say this, we knew that our whereabouts had been discovered by him a long time ago. The three of us looked at these people who seemed to have traveled through time in a daze, feeling a little dazed and speechless for a moment.
"How dare you! The general asked you something, why didn't you answer it!" Seeing that we were silent, an armored man next to him roared, and with a cry, he drew out the sword on his waist, the sword body gleaming with cold light, and another one
Sword! It seems that the other men who have not drawn their swords probably also have hidden weapons.
We are getting more and more confused. Why are these people dressed in such weird clothes? I have never heard of such a group of people.
At this time, Jia Dao got smart. He grinned and walked towards the sloppy man with a smile. "Oh, I see, which ethnic minority are you from? Don't be excited. We are all members of the same ethnic group now." He pretended to pat him.
That slovenly man's shoulders to show his closeness.
With a few choking sounds, several cold swords were placed on Jia Dao's neck.
