Although the few black shadows dodged quickly, they quickly hid in the rocks beside the road through the darkness.
but,
Bai Yueguang's dynamic vision was extremely strong, and he could still see the faces of those people.
There were four people in total, all of them had sly looks on their faces.
In this kind of place with no village in front and no store behind, the whereabouts of those four people are really suspicious.
"There might be trouble."
Leorio also saw those figures, but he couldn't see clearly what they looked like. He just knew from experience that nothing good would happen.
The area where the carriage was traveling was very remote at this moment. At this time and at this place, no other pedestrians or vehicles could be seen.
There are many rocks and dirt slopes on both sides of the road, and it is very likely that someone with bad intentions will block the road and rob you.
"Even if there is trouble, it won't be our trouble." Bai Yueguang smiled.
Leorio also laughed.
This is indeed the case. If any thief does not open his eyes and takes advantage of them, the consequences can be imagined.
The characters in the carriage are each more evil than the last.
At that time, we still don’t know who is robbing anyone!
The carriage did not slow down and continued to move along the road.
Under the illumination of the "watch light", you can see clearly dozens of meters ahead.
In this way, even if you drive late at night, there will be no problems.
Gululu.
The carriage quickly passed the hiding place of the four people without any incident.
…
"Boss, a target has appeared. It's a carriage. The carriage is very large and should contain a lot of goods."
On the hillside, it was those four thieving guys who came back to report the situation.
"What kind of carriage is that? Is it accompanied by guards?"
The leader of this gang of thieves is a one-eyed man. He is cautious and will ask his subordinates to see the target clearly before every action.
If it's the kind of target that's not easy to mess with, don't take action if you can.
The main targets of their robberies are the ordinary small businessmen who come and go. Such people have a little money and don't have much strength, so they can easily succeed.
"Without an escort, it's just an ordinary wooden carriage."
"The driver seemed to be a man and a woman. It was too dark and there was a strange light on the car, so I couldn't take a closer look."
"The cart was pulled by three tall horses. I paid special attention and found that they were not monsters."
"..."
The four people who went to investigate complemented each other.
Having said all this, there is no reason not to take action.
The leader of the thieves waved his hand and led a group of his men to take a shortcut and prepare to intercept the carriage.
Relying on their familiarity with the terrain, the thieves stopped the approaching carriage at a mountain crossing.
"Stop! Stop!"
The thieves divided into two teams and blocked the carriage's front and rear routes.
When these thieves came to the carriage, their eyes immediately lit up.
The bright lamp hanging in front of the car looked like a good thing at first glance. If it were snatched and sold, it could be sold for at least a few hundred gold coins.
At this moment, Leorio was the only one driving the car, and Bai Yueguang had already returned to the carriage.
Looking at these thieves blocking the road, Leorio said coldly: "Get out of the way or die!"
"Ah, drink, you are so bold!"
Two thieves, holding knives in their hands, were already in front of Leorio.
Leorio only had a riding crop in his hand and was wearing ordinary clothes. It was easy for people to mistake him for just an ordinary groom.
"We need to check the carriage!"
"This road belongs to us. If you want to pass by, you need to pay tolls."
When the thief was shouting, someone was already walking to the car behind him.
call!
At this moment, Leorio took action.
The golden fighting spirit instantly envelopes the whole body.
bump!
bump!
Two punches were thrown out, and the two thieves who were standing in front of him flew out directly.
Leorio jumped up and was already at the back of the carriage.
With a twist of the backhand, there was a click, directly breaking the opponent's arm, and grabbing the opponent's long knife.
Swinging the long knife, the kill was so crisp.
Puff puff puff!
In just a few seconds, he had already killed five thieves.
The incident happened suddenly. How could these thieves have imagined that this driver, who looked like a farm boy, could be so fierce.
"This guy is a master!"
A thief shouted before he died.
When the other thieves saw this posture, they quickly scattered and fled.
"withdraw!"
At this time, the bandit leader also shouted and ran for his life first.
Leorio didn't let them go. He chased and killed each one like an unstoppable God of War.
Even though his strength seems low in front of Bai Yueguang and the other girls, in front of ordinary adventurers and thieves, he is truly a strong man.
After all, Leorio failed to kill all the thieves who were fleeing.
Throwing away the bloody long knife in his hand, Leorio returned to the carriage, but was surprised to find Shanna walking out.
"Sanna, get back in the car. I've already solved the problem. They're just a bunch of low-life thieves."
Leorio didn't want the bloody scene to frighten the little girl, so he hurriedly persuaded her.
Shanna is no longer the Shanna she once was.
She has seen scenes more bloody than this.
"Uncle Leo Leo, let me help you drive the car. I used to drive to town." Shanna said with a smile.
"No! If you walk a little further, you can reach the town ahead." Leorio refused.
Shanna did not insist on Leorio, but she did not choose to enter the car, but sat side by side with Leorio in the front.
After the carriage restarted, Shanna suddenly said: "Uncle Leorio, I heard from Sister Yueguang that you were once an instructor at the Border Military Academy."
"yes!"
"Uncle Leorio, can I learn fighting skills from you?" Shanna asked.
Leorio was stunned. He turned to look at Shanna and asked in confusion: "I'm ashamed to say that, in terms of strength, any one of your sisters is better than me."
"Uncle Leo Leo is an expert in educating talents, isn't he?"
Leorio smiled and said cheerfully: "If you are not afraid of hardship, I can teach you."
"Thank you, Uncle Leorio."
"You can call me 'Uncle Lei' from now on!"
"Okay Uncle Lei!"
"You are the youngest here and you do need to learn some self-protection skills, but don't you want to learn magic?"
"If I were to start learning now, I would be a little older and might not be able to learn so quickly, so I would like to learn a little bit." Shanna said truthfully.
Those children from well-off families began to receive training in magic and fighting skills at the age of five or six.
And now Shanna is fourteen years old, well past the best age for learning.
During the rest of the journey, Leorio felt a lot more relaxed because Shanna was accompanying him to talk.
This teenage girl is stronger and more studious than he imagined.
...
The carriage finally arrived at a small town.
It was easy to find a place to stay, which was an independent courtyard.
Speaking of which, this town looks a bit depressed, with few businesses open for business, and almost no pedestrians can be seen on the streets at night.
According to the owner of the courtyard, the town is like this mainly because there is a group of thieves on the only way.
Many merchants who went to the town to do business were robbed.
If you are lucky, you will only lose a little money. If you are unlucky, the thieves will kill you directly.
There were soldiers who went to encircle and suppress the people, but the collusion between officials and bandits was just a formality.
After hearing this, Leorio regretted not being able to deal with all those scumbags.
If he had been stronger, if he had mastered the fighting skills that allowed him to attack in a large area, he would not have been able to escape so many thieves.
Leorio thought more than once: He also needs to improve his strength.
Otherwise, he might be lagging behind in this team.
Speaking of improving his strength, there was one thing that Leorio had never mentioned to anyone, and that was that since his contract with Lin Xi that day, a set of training techniques had appeared in his mind out of thin air.
The exercise is called "Yi Xin Sutra", which emphasizes "understanding the state with the mind" and blending the intangible into the tangible.
Leorio has been enlightened for so many days, but still can't figure it out.
After dinner, Leorio trained alone in the yard, but his mind was thinking about the "Mind and Heart Sutra".
call!
call!
Leorio kept swinging his straight fists, and his whole body was covered with golden fighting spirit, which made him very conspicuous at night.
"What is 'fist intention'? What is 'sword intention'?"
Leorio was puzzled.
He was also a stubborn person. When faced with such a problem that he couldn't understand, he didn't ask Lin Xi for advice.
I guess this is a common problem among introverts. They don't want to trouble others and just want to solve it on their own.
call!
call!
Every time Leorio punches, there is a strong sound of wind.
"Could it be that while punching, you are imagining the state of fighting spirit?"
Leorio speculated while groping alone.
"Hey, Leorio, are you practicing boxing alone?"
Bai Yueguang came out of the room and happened to see Leorio in the courtyard.
"I was a little bored, so I wanted to move my body." Leorio stood up straight.
"How about we practice?" Bai Yueguang suggested.
"I am not your opponent, the gap between us is too big." Leorio did not agree.
If you compete with people who are far superior to you, it will be difficult to achieve anything other than self-inflicted abuse.
Bai Yueguang didn't insist. She went out of the yard directly, thinking that she had something to do.
When Bai Yueguang came back from outside, Leorio was still practicing his punches boringly.
Bai Yueguang hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Leorio, can I ask you a question?"
"What?"
Leorio exhaled a breath, put his hands back and stood up.
"Didn't anything strange happen after you made the contract with Lin Xi?" Bai Yueguang asked directly.
Leorio was stunned.
Bai Yueguang walked over and spoke again in a lowered voice: "Did you suddenly have some kind of practice method in your mind?"
Leorio's eyes widened: "Could it be that you also..."
Bai Yueguang nodded: "Sure enough, you got it too. The practice method I got is called 'Three Breath Refining'. What is yours?"
With a common topic and the fact that everyone is on the same page, Leorio no longer hides and tucks in. It just so happens that he also wants to find someone to discuss it with.
"Mine is the 'Mind and Heart Sutra'."
"So you were practicing the 'Mind and Heart Sutra' just now?"
"I feel ashamed to say that I have not yet understood the 'Mind and Heart Sutra'."
"What did Lin Xi say?" Bai Yueguang asked.
"I haven't mentioned it to Mr. Lin Xi." Leorio smiled sarcastically.
"Why?"
"Sir Lin Xi seems to be very busy, I don't know how to speak."
"How can Lin Xi be so busy? Let's go, I'll take you to ask him. You can't be careless about this kind of practice." After Bai Yueguang finished speaking, he pulled Leorio and walked into the house.
At this moment, in the room, Lin Xi was looking at the monster species.
This magical beast is becoming more and more magical. Just now, it even took the initiative to convey its desire for the power of thunder and lightning to him.
Lin Xi was not used to it. Without a suitable environment, he would not transmit the power of thunder and lightning to the Warcraft.
"Lin Xi, I have the wooden box you want made."
Bai Yueguang said as he took out a rectangular wooden box.
She just went out to do this.
This wooden box is used to store monsters, so that they won't be afraid of rolling around in the car.
"Lin Xi, Leorio encountered a problem while practicing the 'Mind and Heart Sutra'. Can you explain it to me?"
Bai Yueguang told Leorio's unspeakable question.
Lin Xi was stunned and quickly looked at Leorio.
He didn't remember teaching Leorio the Mind and Heart Sutra.
Leorio was no longer silent and hurriedly told the story of how he learned the "Mind and Heart Sutra".
Although Lin Xi was surprised, she had experienced it before and accepted it quickly.
Anyone who makes a contract with him seems to be able to learn a method of cultivation.
Lin Xi didn't know yet whether this was due to the special nature of the contract or whether she had some secrets in her body.
"The 'Yi Xin Sutra' emphasizes the word 'enlightenment'. This is a technique that can only be understood by the mind and is difficult to teach by others. The Yi Xin Sutra is a technique for understanding the laws of energy..."
Lin Xi explained his understanding of the "Mind and Heart Sutra".
To be honest, Lin Xi couldn't even fully understand the "Yi Xin Sutra".
It is said that practicing the "Mind and Heart Sutra" can help sword cultivators understand the meaning of the sword, and even integrate what they have learned to create new ones. It is a Taoist mind method that is very advanced and extremely mysterious.
Leo Leo, a layman who had never even heard of cultivating immortals, actually picked up this practice method. Lin Xi felt troubled for him.
"I can't directly teach you my experience, and I can't even give you better advice. If you want to master the 'Mind and Heart Sutra', you need to understand it yourself."
After Lin Xi said these words, Leorio was like an eggplant beaten by frost, with a wilted head and a drooping brain.
"You need to think and understand by yourself. I can give you an inspiration here."
Lin Xi didn't want Leorio's trip to be in vain. He suddenly stretched out his palm and said, "Look at the flame in my hand. It's just an ordinary flame now."
In Lin Xi's palm, a ball of flame danced.
Lin Xi continued: "But if you master the secret of flame, you can sublimate it and change it, like this!"
call!
As Lin Xi finished speaking, dark blue dragon flames suddenly rose up.
Even Leorio, who has never learned any magic, can feel the huge difference between the two flames before and after.
Comprehend, integrate, connect, and sublime!
At this moment, Leorio seemed to have grasped something, and the golden fighting spirit around him could not help but unfold.
