Volume 1 Brother, Brother Chapter 1 The best taste in the world is barbecue (2)
As a "senior wanderer", Zhang Qi is actually quite cowardly. In the past, when he met Mr. Bing, he would either hide away and not dare to meet him, or he would shrink aside when he saw him. If Mr. Bing said a few words to him,
He was afraid that his heart would jump out of his chest.
But today, he didn't know what kind of evil he had committed. He was stopped by two soldiers, but he was able to keep his face straight: "Two soldiers, what's the matter? If it's okay, I want to go over and listen. The notice says
What to talk about..."
He has been in Donghua City for three days. If nothing unexpected happens, he plans to leave today and go to Wucheng on the other side of Dongling. Before leaving, it would be good to listen to the announcement and learn about "national events"
Isn't it?
"Notice?" The bearded soldier on the left patted the scabbard and sneered: "I don't know how many times I have heard that notice before I can memorize it. I will recite it to you now: By the oracle, Taiyi Temple has given instructions
Donghua City: It is scheduled to be held at the end of the year on New Year's Eve. The Holy Blood Sacrifice is ordered to be held in Jiuzhou. Anyone between fifteen and thirty years old with the surnames Lin, Chen, Xiao, and Qi may have a son-in-law who will be a genius at first.
Those who are disabled and those who have fled their hometowns to seek refuge in the army due to unforeseen disasters are required to undergo blood sacrifices. Those who violate this will be considered as being against the gods. This is an edict!"
"Let me tell you, this oracle notice was issued by Shenyi Sect, and the masters of Taiyi Temple supervised its execution!" The little soldier on the right smacked his lower lip and shouted arrogantly: "Of course, this is also a gift given to us by the gods.
Opportunity to make a fortune!”
Shenyi Sect, Taiyi Temple, and Zhang Qi all know about it: the former is the head of the nine major sects in the world, the Yanzhou he is in is under its rule, and it is the sky of Yanzhou; the latter is the enshrinement
The place where God Emperor Taiyi is, Emperor Taiyi ranks first among the five divine emperors in the Holy Heaven Realm and is the highest governing god in the Holy Heaven Realm. Its temple is naturally an extremely solemn place.
The bearded soldier raised his lips and laughed in harmony: "The city lord asked us to catch children. The families in the city named Lin, Qi, Xiao, and Chen would rather spend hundreds of taels of silver to buy one to catch."
Tank, and they don’t want their children to travel tens of thousands of miles to participate in this blood sacrifice. But we went to the countryside for a few days and couldn’t find a single child without an owner! The two of us were depressed, looking at the white money.
No, hey, who knows: when you go round and round, isn't there one right in front of you?"
"Yes, yes!" the little soldier agreed: "God wants to make us two brothers rich! Although the city lord will take at least 90% of the money to buy the child, but with this boy,
Can we at least share one or twenty taels of silver?"
The young man instinctively took two steps back, but he could still manage to smile: "You want to catch me and buy me?"
The little soldier looked him up and down for a long time like a pig, cow, sheep or horse, and said repeatedly: "Although at first glance he looks like a pitiful creature with no bloodline or acupoints to speak of, and no cultivation at all, he is still a human being after all.
It can still be used to jack up the cylinder.”
The bearded soldier was more anxious and reached out to grab Zhang Qi's shoulder.
Zhang Qi didn't want to be tied down, so he turned his feet and twisted his body, and jumped out.
The bearded soldier grabbed an empty space, said "Hey", swung his scabbard and struck Zhang Qi on the back. He was obviously a warrior. The scabbard was powerful and heavy, and it also made a vague sound of breaking through the air. If he was hit by
If hit, the spine may be broken into two pieces.
Obviously, he only needs Zhang Qi to live, whether he is injured or not is not within his scope of consideration.
But Zhang Qi bowed his body, like a rabbit ready to go, or like a sharp arrow that was taken off its string, and suddenly stepped onto the wooden pile beside the suspension bridge.
His steps were extremely fast, and his footing was very precise. He could always step on the most economical and effective place without wasting any effort. When he fell in the eyes of the two soldiers, they couldn't help but feel awe in their hearts: Could it be that this young man?
Actually knows martial arts?
But they soon realized that this was not a martial arts skill. In fact, Zhang Qi had been smart since he was a child. This was the pace he created on his own while avoiding wild beasts in the wilderness: with this pace, he didn't know
How many times have I escaped life-threatening danger?
Thinking that it would be the same this time, Zhang Qi gritted his teeth, stepped on the bridge pile, dodged the scabbard that swept towards his ankle, and rushed into the crowd surrounding the bulletin board in two steps. He was suddenly startled.
There was a sound of screaming and yelling.
Although Zhang Qi is tall, he is extremely thin and very nimble on his feet. Although the crowd is in chaos, he can always squeeze through the gaps between the people, but he has suffered many pushes and collisions; but the two chasing after him
The soldiers suffered a lot, like two wild bulls stuck in jelly. Although they yelled and fluttered desperately, there was always someone standing in front of them, which made them roar and panic.
It's just that the crowd was not big after all. After a lot of effort, the two soldiers squeezed out of the crowd in only a few minutes: when they looked up, they saw that Zhang Qi was not far in front of them, just across the road.
Cross the suspension bridge and run along the official road into the pine forest in the distance.
"You want to run away? Can you run away?" The two soldiers snorted and sneered. Although they had no enmity with the young man, they were close to Bai Huahua's money, so how could they let it go? So they held their sabers upside down and screamed.
He chased after him.
After the chase, Zhang Qi immediately panicked. Although he was taller than the two soldiers, he was thin and weak, so how could he dare to turn around and challenge the opponent? He had no choice but to bury his head and run towards the pine forest at the end of the official road.
It is said that people can easily unleash their potential in times of crisis. The boy was chased by two soldiers, but he was able to run with his legs as fast as a windmill. He ran to the edge of the pine forest with a huff, lowered his head, and got in. He also specially
Run towards the depths of the forest with lush foliage.
Panting heavily, the two soldiers also ran to the edge of the pine forest, looked into the forest, but stopped.
"Damn it!" The bearded man spat out thick phlegm: "Is this kid a loach? He can run so fast!"
"Brother Sixth, what should we do? Should we chase him in?" The little man also looked into the forest, and then suddenly retracted his neck: "I heard from the military leader that this forest is called Huangsongba.
But it’s deep, I’m afraid it’s no less than a thousand acres! I heard that some people have encountered third-order and fourth-order monsters there! Brother Sixth, let’s, please, don’t chase in...”
"Bah, coward!" The bearded man sneered disdainfully, then raised his leg and stepped towards the forest. But the leg he was lifting was still in the air, but he suddenly heard a strange noise deep in the pine forest, which sounded a bit like the roar of an animal.
But it's like an earthquake.
The bearded man's stretched-out legs were already trembling. Hearing this loud noise, he immediately trembled all over. The little man was so frightened that he turned around and ran away: "No, no, let's not chase! Donghua City
There are so many beggars outside the city, so we don’t necessarily just keep an eye on this little guy, it’s too scary... Life is still important, life is important..."
