"In the past five days, they've been through this road a lot, so they're very familiar with it. You don't need to worry, there won't be any danger. At night, we'll rest in a village or a small town. We just need to guard against some small bandits. The other big bandit groups are already familiar with us, so they won't touch us." Li Shan calmly said.
Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare when he heard Li Shan. He suddenly felt that the Thunder Gang's way of survival was similar to the legendary escort agencies back on Earth. In ancient times, escort agencies didn't rely on their martial arts skills. Even if your martial arts skills were high, the people in Jianghu would have ways to deal with you. Because of this, escort agencies didn't rely on martial arts skills, but on your face. If the people in Jianghu gave you face, then your escort would naturally go smoothly. If they didn't give you face, then your escort would naturally be robbed.
It was precisely because of this that those escort agencies would shout out the escort numbers and put up the escort flags when they were escorting the goods. It was to remind their friends of the jianghu that they should give them some face if they were friends.
The Thunder Gang was doing the same thing. The bandits and the Thunder Gang were very familiar with each other, so when they saw that the Thunder Gang was escorting something, they naturally wouldn't touch it.
Li Shan looked at Zhao Hai and stared blankly, then he said, "Don't you find it strange that we're acquainted with these bandits? Actually, there's nothing strange about it. In the past, the Gang Leader went to visit them one by one. Moreover, he said that he would give them a tenth of our first escort fee. So naturally, they wouldn't touch us."
Zhao Hai nodded and said in a deep voice, "Haven't you encountered other thieves? What if we meet some who cross the border? "
Li Shan replied, "There's no other way, we can only fight. Some bandits who cross the border aren't that strong. We can still fight them."
Zhao Hai nodded. Zhao Hai said, "Let's eat something. We'll be on the road in the afternoon, so we can have a good rest at night." Zhao Hai nodded, then he took out some dry food and ate it.
They only took a short break at noon and continued their journey in the afternoon. Nothing happened in the afternoon, but Zhao Hai felt that there were two groups of people spying on their convoy. But in the end, they didn't make a move. It seems like what Li Shan said was true. Those thieves were very familiar with them, so they didn't make a move.
At night, they rested in a small town. They were very familiar with the situation along the way. In the small town, they even had a special hotel. They were all old friends, so they had a good night's rest.
The next morning, after eating breakfast and preparing some dry food, they set out. But at noon, they didn't stop to rest. Instead, they kept moving forward. Even so, they still came across a small village after dark. They rested in the village for the night before continuing their journey.
Along the way, Zhao Hai discovered that there were four or five groups of people spying on them. But up until now, nobody had made a move. It seems like the Mine Laying Gang was very familiar with this road. It seems like this trip wouldn't be a problem.
Just as Zhao Hai was thinking about this, the carriage suddenly stopped. Li Shan's carriage also issued a whistling sound. Upon hearing this sound, Zhao Hai stared, then his expression changed. This was because he was very clear that this whistling sound meant that there were enemies in front of them.
At this time, Zhao Hai's carriage also stopped. Zhao Hai ran down from the carriage and his figure moved. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the carriage. When he arrived in front of the carriage, he discovered that there were five people standing in a row. These five people were all wearing black, and each of them had a demonic head blade in their hands. Naturally, this wasn't the most attractive part about them, the most attractive part was their appearance.
These five people looked exactly the same, they were all ugly. Their hair was messy, their noses were pointed upwards, their lips were thick, and their skin was pitch black. They didn't look like humans, but they looked more like ghosts.
Zhao Hai looked at these people and couldn't help but frown. Then he looked at Li Shan's ugly expression, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Li Shan, do you know these people?"
Li Shan shook his head and said, "I don't know them. I heard that they are the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts. These people have always been active in Grey Mountain. They are ruthless characters, and each of them is very strong. However, Grey Mountain is very far from here, and they have never been active here. So why would they come here?"
Zhao Hai looked at the strength of these five people. They weren't very strong, all of them were at the Fusion Soul Stage. Naturally, this was only in Zhao Hai's opinion. For others, they weren't weak, especially for a small gang like the Thunder Gang.
Zhao Hai replied, "I can deal with five of them. I'm not afraid of their group techniques. My movement technique is very good. But I don't know if they have a joint attack technique. If they do, then things would be troublesome." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Five people?
Li Shan smiled bitterly and said, "The Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts are famous for their joint attack technique called the Five Ghosts Soul Chasing Technique. It seems like we're in trouble this time. These people eat raw rice, they don't care about anyone's face. Also, we don't have any friendship with them. It seems like we won't be able to get through today's trial."
Just as Li Shan spoke, a burst of laughter was heard from the other side. Then an arrogant voice was heard, "Listen up, if you know this Grandpa, then obediently hand over the item. This Grandpa will spare your life. If you don't know this Grandpa, then this Grandpa isn't afraid to tell you that this Grandpa has a title called the Grey Mountain's Five Greats. I advise you to hand over the item, lest you lose your life."
Any Cultivator would think highly of themselves. Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts was a title given to them by outsiders, but they called themselves the Grey Mountain's Five Greats.
Zhao Hai looked at Li Shan and said, "Leave these five guys to me." Then without waiting for Li Shan's reply, Zhao Hai stood up and said to the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts, "Friends, I am the Thunder Gang's Guest Elder, Zhao Ming. I ask you to give us face and let us pass. In the future, our Thunder Gang will send you a gift as thanks."
"Bah! Who do you think you are, Thunder Gang? A small gang that we've never heard of dares to ask us to give face. Boy, if you know what's good for you, then scram. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite. "
When Zhao Hai heard this, his expression couldn't help but change as he said, "So you're saying that you won't let us pass? Since you've been entrusted with this matter, then I can only offend you today. "Then Zhao Hai moved his hand and took out two sledgehammers.
This time, he didn't use a saber. He was afraid of exposing his identity. Fortunately, he was proficient in all kinds of martial arts, so it didn't matter what weapon he used.
When the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts saw Zhao Hai take out his weapon, the leader couldn't help but laugh and said, "Good, very good. It's been a long time since someone dared to make a move against us brothers. Today, none of you will be able to escape. You're all dead."
Zhao Hai looked at the other party and sneered, "It won't be that easy to kill us." Then Zhao Hai roared and swung his sledgehammers, directly attacking the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts.
Zhao Hai's sledgehammer looked very simple, as if it was just a simple strike. However, the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts felt that it was completely different. Not only did Zhao Hai's sledgehammer seal their escape route, it also carried a kind of momentum, a kind of momentum.
When the leader of the Five Ghosts saw Zhao Hai's sledgehammer, his face couldn't help but change. He then shouted, "This guy is tough, set up the formation!" Following his voice, the other four ghosts immediately moved. They surrounded Zhao Hai and directly attacked Zhao Hai with their swords.
Zhao Hai's figure moved. The sledgehammers in his hands were like two fists. They flew up and down, blocking all of the attacks of the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts. He could also counterattack once or twice, forcing the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts to turn around to save themselves.
However, when Li Shan saw Zhao Hai's attack, there was no smile on his face. He knew that Zhao Hai's sledgehammers were heavy weapons. In order to use such heavy weapons, one must have a very strong strength. Moreover, such heavy weapons consumed a lot of spiritual energy, much more than ordinary weapons. If they continued to fight like this, then Zhao Hai might not be able to outlast the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts.
Sure enough, as Li Shan thought, Zhao Hai and the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts exchanged more than fifty moves. His face was covered in sweat, and his breathing became heavy. When the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts saw this, they became even more anxious.
At this moment, Zhao Hai suddenly shouted, "Hit!" Following his words, the sledgehammer in Zhao Hai's hand flew out and went straight for one of the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts. The Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts didn't expect Zhao Hai to do this. He didn't even have the slightest preparation. With a bang, the sledgehammer that flew out of Zhao Hai's hand smashed into his head. The Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts' head looked like a watermelon that was hit by a sledgehammer. It was smashed into pieces, and red and white parts flew all over the sky.
This change stunned everyone, but it wasn't over yet. Zhao Hai held the remaining sledgehammer with both hands, shouted, and rushed towards another Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts.
The remaining four Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts seemed to have recovered from Zhao Hai's shout. They cried out, "Old Four!" Then they looked at Zhao Hai with red eyes and shouted, "Die!" Four Grey Mountain's Ghost Head Blades slashed towards Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai held the sledgehammer with both hands and used all his strength to block. After a while, they heard Zhao Hai suddenly shout, "Hit!" Everyone was startled, and then they heard a sound, "Ah!" Everyone followed the sound and saw one of the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts. His throat was pierced by a throwing knife, and the Grey Mountain's Ghost Head Blade didn't seem to be able to survive.
At this time, Zhao Hai shouted, "Brother Li Shan, do it!" Li Shan, who was already dumbfounded, heard Zhao Hai's words, and then he suddenly shouted, "Kill!" Then he waved the copper staff in his hand and attacked the Grey Mountain's Five Ghosts. The others didn't make a move, they were still guarding the carriage.
Li Shan's participation stopped one Grey Mountain's Ghost Head Blade. Although the remaining two Grey Mountain's Ghosts were still besieging Zhao Hai, they were no longer a threat to Zhao Hai.
