The black iron hooves walked slowly through the snow. Even though there was a weight of five thousand kilograms on its back, its iron hooves only left inch-deep footprints on the foot-deep snow.
Xiang Yu looked at the four people calmly, and the four people were also looking at him.
"Who are you? You should not be from the Qinghe County Slave Alliance!"
The leading guard was guarding Xiang Yu with vigilance. Although the person and the rider in front of him had a plain expression, they gave him an overwhelming feeling of oppression as if he were looking up from a high mountain.
"Hey, you are a slave too."
When they saw the slave tattoo on Xiang Yu's cheek clearly, the leading guard was happy at first, but in the blink of an eye he was full of worry, "You hurry up! We have offended the people of the Qinghe County Slave Alliance, and their masters are behind.
If they catch you with us later, I'm afraid it will be a disaster and Chi Yu will not be able to escape their pursuit."
The leading guard was outspoken and told the dangerous situation of his group, and he was considered an upright man.
Xiang Yu had a great impression of this group of people. As for the slave alliance mentioned by the leading guard, Xiang Yu didn't pay much attention to it.
As his strength grew, the pride of dominating the world in his previous life gradually returned to Xiang Yu.
He had no intention of taking a detour to avoid the Slave Alliance, but smiled at the man who spoke, "You are quite courageous. You dare to offend even a 'behemoth' like the Slave Alliance."
After hearing Xiang Yu's words, the leading guard was filled with grief and anger.
"The slave alliance is really not a good thing! We are retainers of the Liu family in Qinghe County. Three months ago, due to a business dispute, the slave alliance attacked the Liu family late at night, causing the Liu family's family to be destroyed. I
The retainers were also captured and reduced to slave status."
"The Liu family is well-known as a virtuous family in Qinghe County. Unfortunately, the family was destroyed, and only the third lady of the direct lineage survived."
Having said this, the leading guard looked back at the young woman who was being protected behind him, with tears in his eyes, and continued: "The third young lady is talented, intelligent, and stunningly charming. After becoming a slave, she was actually killed by Lu, the chief manager of the Qinghe County Slave Alliance.
When Cheng Zhi saw her, he was so shocked that he decided to take her as a concubine on the first day of the next month."
"Third Miss would rather die than obey. We, the retainers, have grown up in the Liu family since childhood and have received favors from others. How can we not repay the favor?"
"The night before yesterday, we killed the guards of the Slave Alliance. Unfortunately, our whereabouts were exposed when we escaped, and we were watched by the people of the Slave Alliance. There were eagles and eagles watching in the sky, and dogs and mastiffs were tracking us on the ground. We were caught by the people of the Slave Alliance.
Following and chasing him, he had no way to retreat, so he could only flee deep into the mountains."
"It's a pity that the depths of Lushan Mountain are extremely dangerous. If a warrior in the Qi Refining Realm wants to cross Lushan Mountain, he will definitely have a narrow escape. I would not regret waiting for death. It's a pity that Miss Third..."
The leading guard's eyes returned to Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu's calm expression made him feel that Xiang Yu was not simple, but it was really hard for him to ask for help from someone he had just met and couldn't even figure out the details.
When the third lady arrived, she stepped away from the leading guard, stepped forward, looked up at Xiang Yu on horseback, and said word by word: "I know you are very strong. If you can help us, we can escape from the Slave Alliance."
If you chase me, I, Liu Qinglan, will serve as your slave and maid, with no regrets or regrets."
Her words were unequivocal and unquestionable.
Xiang Yu was startled, then laughed dumbly and said: "How do you see that I am powerful?"
Liu Qinglan looked directly at him, staring at the slave tattoo on his cheek, and said with confidence: "The tattoo on your cheek was branded by the Lushan County Slave Alliance, and the fabric of the clothes was made by the needleworkers of Lushan County's Qianbai Needle Shop... This
These two points are enough to show that you are from Lushan County. And your appearance is obviously that you have been practicing hard in Lushan for a period of time. A person who can cross Lushan alone must have the strength of around the late stage of divine transformation."
After listening to Liu Qinglan's explanation, the three guards were shocked. The person in front of them was obviously young, but he actually had the strength to cross Lushan.
"Who is he?"
Xiang Yu laughed, and narrowed his eyes again when looking at the confident and intelligent woman.
"Even if I have that strength, why do you think I will save you."
Liu Qinglan met his eyes tit for tat. After a long time, she gritted her teeth and said: "Your determination is so firm that beauty cannot shake it. If you can really save my group, I will give you something as a gift."
"A gift of one thing?"
Xiang Yu frowned. In fact, if Liu Qinglan didn't answer, he would save the group of people in front of him because of the loyalty of the guards, because he, Xiang Yu, didn't have the slightest fondness for the Slave Alliance.
It's just that Xiang Yu didn't like Liu Qinglan's confident and aggressive tone, so when he had an idea, he pretended that it had nothing to do with him.
Originally it was just a blow to Liu Qinglan's sharp momentum, but who would have thought that she would "give him something as a gift".
Xiang Yu looked directly at Liu Qinglan, wanting to see what this resolute woman could come up with that would make his heart flutter.
However, unexpectedly, Liu Qinglan shed tears at this moment and softened her tone: "That thing is no longer with me now. I can only tell you that it is a treasure map. The real reason for the demise of my Liu family is not business at all."
It’s a dispute, but this treasure map was known to the people of the Slave Alliance.”
"Treasure Map?"
Xiang Yu's heart skipped a beat, "What exactly is hidden in the treasure map that can make even the slave alliance excited?"
Liu Qinglan shook her head.
"That is a very ancient leather scroll. Our Liu family runs a copper mine. When we were mining the copper mine, we dug out an ancient stone chamber from the ground. There was nothing in the stone chamber, only an ancient leather scroll.
."
"And this ancient leather scroll is painted with a picture of mountains and flowing water. When it was discovered, the leather scroll actually revealed the sound of mountain flowing water and the chirping of hundreds of birds. Such an extraordinary thing was treasured by my grandfather, but unfortunately many miners at that time also
Knowing this, the news spread and reached the ears of Lu Chengzhi, the general manager of the Slave Alliance."
"Lu Chengzhi came to the door that day and wanted to forcefully buy the treasure map. Of course, my grandfather was reluctant to part with such a treasure. He hid the treasure map in a secret place on the grounds that it was lost. Who would have thought that in the next few days, the Slave Alliance would go around suppressing our Liu family's business?
Finally, on a dark and dark night, he finally reached out to my Liu family with a butcher knife..."
Liu Qinglan's eyes were brewing with overwhelming hatred for the Slave Alliance.
"Every man is not guilty, but the treasure is guilty. Now our Liu family has been destroyed, and my only surviving direct bloodline is like a lost dog. It is better to dedicate this treasure map to the hands of a strong man like the Young Master to preserve it.
The lives of the four of us."
After listening to Liu Qinglan's explanation, Xiang Yu was silent in thought.
After a moment, he suddenly said loudly, "Okay, as long as you tell me the location of the treasure map, I will ensure the safety of your group."
Liu Qinglan's face trembled slightly, her pink fists were clenched, and she was having a war between heaven and man in her heart. Finally, she said helplessly: "That treasure map was hidden by my grandfather..."
However, at this moment, Xiang Yu suddenly moved, and saw three darts made of black iron, controlled by his artistic conception, shooting at the three guards without warning.
Stab, sting, sting.
The necks of the three guards were easily pierced by the darts. Even to the end of their lives, they could not believe that Xiang Yu would suddenly attack them. There was an insurmountable gap in strength, but now Xiang Yu struck without warning, and the three of them were suddenly
Darts kill instantly.
"You, why did you..."
The leading guard covered the bloody hole in his Adam's apple with his big hands, looking at Xiang Yu's face filled with horror.
Xiang Yu smiled coldly, "You can only use this little trick to deceive your third lady, but for me, Xiang Yu, it is too immature..."
