Chapter 227 Squat down with your head in your hands
An official road running in the north-south direction has a mountain wall on one side and woods on the other side.
This official road leads to Qingyun City, which is only three hundred miles away.
A convoy of more than twenty people came from the dusty end of the official road.
There were not many vehicles, only seven, but the guards on horseback who gathered nearby were all full of energy. They were all powerful at the Yuan King level, and some of them were even strong men who had condensed pills four or five times.
At the front of the motorcade was a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothing and riding a yellow horse.
The middle-aged man's eyes were sharp and his aura was deep, and he actually had the strength of Seventh Condensation. He looked at the entire convoy from time to time, and he was obviously the one leading the convoy.
The middle-aged man who led the team, whose surname was Zhou, was the patriarch of a middle-class family. His family had some influence in Qingyun City, and also had properties in some small towns around Qingyun City. This time, they were escorting supplies from a small town to Qingyun City. Because the escort was
The supplies were somewhat precious, so I personally led the team.
It was now noon. The middle-aged man looked at the scorching polar sun in the sky and sighed slightly. The convoy he led set out yesterday morning and has only traveled a hundred miles until now. They are all loaded with supplies.
Several carriages greatly slowed down the traveling speed. At this speed, it would still take five days to reach Qingyun City.
However, it is extremely dangerous to escort important materials through hundreds of miles of sparsely populated official roads. After all, there is a mountain range next to the official road, and monsters often come out of it to hurt people. Although most of the monsters that appear are Yuan
The power level can be solved easily, but who can guarantee that Yuanwang level monsters will not appear.
In the past, a high-level Yuan King Realm monster destroyed a convoy. I heard that on that occasion, there were seven people who were guarding the convoy, including three-time Dan Condensing Yuan King Realm, and several ordinary Yuan King Realm people. They were already quite powerful.
.But who would have thought that a seven-time Dan-Condensed Yuan King realm monster would appear and eat up all the escorts in the convoy.
In addition to the threat of monsters, there are also those with evil intentions who like to get something for nothing and take the opportunity to rob weak and small convoys.
Therefore, even though he was personally holding the battle this time, and almost all the powerful people in the family were present, the middle-aged man named Zhou felt a little at ease, but he did not dare to slack off, and his spirit was always tense.
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man named Zhou couldn't help but look back behind him.
Among the seven carriages behind him, five contained supplies for escort, and one contained food and water for the group. The last one was the only covered carriage, and inside was his daughter. Thinking of his daughter, Zhong
A smile appeared on the young man's face. His daughter was really up to her standards. She was already at the Yuan King level before she was twenty years old. She was now studying in an academy in Qingyun City. He believed that his daughter would be able to surpass him in the future and even become a member of the Qingyun Sect.
It's not that there is no chance.
If the parents who lived in a small town didn't insist on seeing his granddaughter this time, he would not be willing to put his daughter in danger.
Fortunately, there were no dangers in the first part of the journey. We just encountered a few Yuanli realm monsters. After killing them, we could get more food.
It was almost noon. The middle-aged man named Zhou took stock of the surrounding terrain, then stretched out his hand to signal the convoy to stop, and shouted: "Stop to eat something, take a rest before starting on the road.
Immediately, the guards gathered the six carriages together in an orderly manner, and then went to the carriage loaded with food to get food. Two of them went to the edge of the forest to guard, while the remaining people relaxed and fed their stomachs.
"No, a monster is approaching!"
The two guards who were on guard shouted loudly and fixed their eyes on a certain direction in the woods. The leaves there were rustling, and something was approaching.
Hearing the alert from the security personnel, the resting personnel put down the dried meat and noodles in their hands, picked up their weapons and moved towards the woods, slowly surrounding the city in a fan shape.
brush!
The dense branches were pushed aside, revealing a young face. As soon as the owner of this face appeared, he saw more than twenty gleaming weapons pointed at him, and he was immediately startled.
"Da, what are you doing? I don't mean any harm."
The young man held his head in his hands, as if he would not resist. He walked out of the woods, held his head in his hands, and squatted on the ground.
"Well!……"
Everyone was in false alarm, but they were speechless for a while. The young man's posture of holding his head in his hands was unknown where he learned it, and he looked quite skilled.
The middle-aged man surnamed Zhou stood out from the crowd and was sure that there was only one young man. Seeing that he seemed to be younger than his own daughter, he was immediately relieved. However, he was still suspicious of the young man walking out of the woods alone and secretly stayed.
Be careful.
This young man who suddenly appeared was, of course, Lin Li who left Jiangnan City.
Lin Li saw everyone put away their weapons, and then he dared to stand up and explained: "I am from the nearby Black Rock City. It was my first time to travel far away. I misjudged the difficulty of the experience. I only entered the mountains for dozens of miles when I encountered this person.
A Yuanwang realm monster managed to escape with great difficulty. However, I was still seriously injured, and now I happen to run into you, and you still have to trouble me to give me a lift."
The middle-aged man surnamed Zhou stared at Lin Li's face for a while, and was suddenly surprised because he found that such a young man was actually at the Yuan King level, and his cultivation talent was indeed amazing. However, the more this happens, the easier it is for him to become arrogant and complacent.
It makes more sense for one person to enter the mountains.
And through his observation, the young man in front of him was indeed pale, with weak energy in his body, and he indeed looked seriously injured.
The middle-aged man surnamed Zhou said: "I wonder what you call me? Where are you going? Let me see if you are on your way."
"My name is Lin Li. I'm going to Qingyun City."
Lin Li quickly replied. He thought to himself, there is only this road in front of him anyway, I don't care if you go smoothly or not, you have to carry me along anyway. The feeling of being injured is really uncomfortable.
Lin Li was really hurt, not pretending.
"Oh, Qingyun City! I happen to be on the way, and I can give Brother Lin a ride. It's dinner time now. If Brother Lin doesn't eat, let's come together." The middle-aged man surnamed Zhou nodded.
"Thank you so much." Lin Li thanked him profusely.
Lin Li ate some dried meat and drank two bowls of hot soup along with the others, and immediately felt much smoother in his chest and abdomen.
Since Lin Li was injured, the middle-aged man surnamed Zhou was quite kind-hearted and ordered someone to clear a small space for a carriage loaded with supplies so that Lin Li could sit on it.
Lin Li naturally thanked him for a moment, and then got into the carriage.
Lin Li sat down cross-legged on a small piece of the vacated car floor, stuffed two healing elixirs into his mouth, and at the same time held a spiritual stone in his hand hidden in his sleeve, slowly repairing the terrible injuries in his body.
ps: A brand new volume, a new starting point! Yesterday, the leader told me something in the morning, saying that you only need to do this thing today, and go home directly after finishing it. Damn it, it was almost half past four when the thing was done.
