The captain hurriedly looked over and saw that his four men were already lying on the ground, wailing in pain. Li Shang and his men all looked as if they had seen a ghost.
"Good chance!"
Seeing that the other party was slightly distracted, Ah Shuai took the opportunity to move forward. The soft sword in his hand twisted strangely a few times in the air, and the strong and dazzling reflection shot right into the eyes of the bandit captain.
The captain instantly closed his eyes subconsciously. He sighed in his heart and quickly retreated. At the same time, he waved the long spear in his hand in front of him, forming a circle of spears around his body. It was airtight.
"Ding ding ding."
A few crisp sounds rang in the air in succession, which happened to block Ah Shuai's sneak attack.
When the captain felt a little better, he opened his eyes. Although there was still some discomfort, it was no longer a problem. He waved the long spear in his hand and forced Ah Shuai to retreat again.
"Who are you people?"
The captain asked in a deep voice. At this time, he saw that the little girl's figure was not worse than the boy in front of him. To be able to give birth to such outstanding children, one could imagine their master's cultivation level. Moreover, they were so young. It was obvious that someone was following them. Otherwise, no one would be at ease.
"It doesn't matter who I am. If you want to know, you'll know after defeating me." Ah Shuai rushed up again, but at this time he understood that his strength was no match for the other party. He could not fight the other party head-on.
While Ah Shuai was entangled with the other party, Xiao Lan was dealing with the four people on the opposite side alone.
As for Li Shang and the others, they had already retreated far away. They had never thought that these two children would have such high martial arts.
In the face of the siege of the four people, her small body danced like a butterfly. Her flexible body was not even touched by the four people's intertwined attacks.
On the other hand, the other party was struck by her palm lightly, and it was extremely painful. Moreover, whenever Xiao Lan was in danger, an invisible ice thread would be released from the void to entangle the other party, and she would be able to escape from danger with ease.
The situation of the battle was improving towards Xiao Lan's side. If this continued for a while, then the final winner would be Xiao Lan.
On the other hand, he wanted to rely on his cultivation level being one level higher than the other party to quickly end the battle and then help his team members. However, the situation of the battle was not what he had expected.
The other party was like a slippery loach. Relying on the fact that his body was much more agile than his, he kept pestering him and occasionally struck him.
But if he didn't ask him and went to support his companions, then he would stick to him like a dog skin plaster. The slightest carelessness would give him an opportunity to leave a few wounds on his body.
If he continued to ignore it, he was afraid that the other party's attack would land on his head.
This put them in a dilemma. The captain realized that they had to deal with this troublesome boy first. Otherwise, they would end up dead in the end.
Thinking of this, he suddenly shouted and launched a "Total Annihilation" attack at the opposite side. Ah Shuai took a few quick steps and dodged the opponent's attack.
A bloodthirsty aura emanated from the captain's body. The captain, who was in the middle of the spear, lowered his body and sped up again. He quickly dashed towards Ah Shuai.
He was just an ordinary warrior. He didn't know any spells, and no one taught him any secret techniques. This move was comprehended by him in the army after many years of battle. Once he used it, it was like fighting on a horse. It greatly increased his attack power and speed, and he rushed towards the opposite side with the momentum of ten thousand horses charging.
Especially with the murderous aura on his body, it was easy for the enemy to be distracted and strung into a gourd by his charge.
Seeing the other party's blank and bewildered look, as if he was frightened by his momentum, the captain was overjoyed.
The other party was too young. Even if he had combat experience, how could he have the experience of a life and death battle?
"I hope you don't try to be brave in your next life. Go to hell."
The captain roared in his heart. The spear in his hand was aimed at Ah Shuai's heart. He would tear the other party into two with one blow.
"Young Master Gu," Shuang 'er, who was in the distance, shouted subconsciously. She seemed to see Ah Shuai being killed by the other party in the next moment.
"It's okay. I did all this on purpose. Don't make a fuss. It seems that I need to find an opportunity for you to gain experience. Now that I'm here, there won't be any problems," Gu Zheng, who was sitting on his seat, opened his eyes and looked at Shuang 'er seriously.
"No, I'm afraid of fighting. You can protect me when the time comes," Shuang 'er said casually. Shuang 'er's eyes were still looking in that direction as she casually said. To her, the thing she hated the most was fighting because her job was to be a doctor and save people. It was as if she had forgotten that Gu Zheng could leave her at any time.
"Look, Ah Shuai dodged the other party's attack," Shuang 'er said excitedly.
Ah Shuai, who seemed to be in a daze, suddenly became clear-headed. He even revealed a smile at the corner of his mouth. When he saw the last scene, he knew that the other party was going to make a big move. He deliberately pretended to be like this to confuse the other party.
Once the other party attacked with all his strength, it would be impossible for him to change his action at any time.
He did not do it on a whim. He realized that the other party was an ordinary warrior and he had a 90% chance of success.
Ah Shuai suddenly dodged sideways and came to the side of the leader twice as fast as before. The soft sword in his hand shone with a silver light. He originally wanted to stab the other party's heart, but after a moment of hesitation, he still stabbed the soft sword into the other party's shoulder. Then, he slapped the other party's back hard.
The leader instantly fell to the ground and fainted.
At the same time, the four bandits from before also fell to the ground stiffly. However, Xiao Lan's face was a little pale. She seemed to have overexerted herself.
However, she dealt with four people alone, which was enough to make people look at her.
When everyone on the other side saw that the two of them had dealt with the other party, they all rushed up and looked at them with admiration.
"Two little heroes, thank you so much. I didn't expect the two of you to be so powerful at such a young age. It seems that you will become great people in the future," Li Shang praised repeatedly, making Xiao Lan and Ah Shuai feel a little embarrassed.
"What about them?" One of the men asked. At this time, the five arrogant bandits were all lying on the ground unconscious.
"Leave it to them. Since the little heroes defeated the other party, let them deal with them," Li Shang pointed to Ah Shuai and said.
Ah Shuai was about to say something, then his expression changed. He went directly to the leader and pulled out his weapon. He did not care about the blood flowing out of the other party's body. Then, he kicked the other party's leg hard.
With a "crack", one of the other party's legs was obviously bent irregularly and was directly broken by Ah Shuai.
Following the pattern, Ah Shuai broke the legs of the four bandits one by one, and then came back.
Except for Xiao Lan, who looked a little sad, everyone else did not have any unusual expressions. In their opinion, the punishment for them was a little light. If it were them, none of them would have survived.
However, since Li Shang had said it, they could only accept the punishment. But they still said worriedly, "Will they come back for revenge? We still have a long way to go. Once they wake up, they will rush to get their horses …"
"It's okay. Drag their horses away. They won't have time to go back. By then, we will have arrived at Feng City." Ah Shuai then said. In fact, all of this was arranged by Gu Zheng. He did not understand why they were let go.
Of course, he did not know that Gu Zheng had already planted Yuan Qi in the other party's body. After two hours, they would naturally die quietly. He was just afraid that Ah Shuai and Xiao Lan would not be able to accept the fact that he had killed them personally. It was a painstaking effort to give them some buffer time.
However, Shuang 'er did not know. She muttered at the side, "This is too merciful to them."
Shuang 'er was not so pedantic. Over the years, her horizons had broadened, and she knew the cruelty of the world. In order to survive, she had to kill the enemies who were hostile to her.
Gu Zheng smiled and did not say anything. He sighed in his heart. He used to be such a person, but now, he had been tortured by reality. However, if he did not do this, he would be the one who died. He was not so stupid as to sympathize with the enemy.
Then there was a noise outside. Soon, Gu Zheng felt that the entire caravan was moving forward. Xiao Lan and Ah Shuai had returned again.
"Master, we did not disappoint you. We successfully dealt with the other party." As soon as he opened the caravan, Ah Shuai immediately reported to Gu Zheng.
Although he tried hard to pretend that he did not care, there was still an unconcealable pride in his eyes.
It must be known that ten days ago, he was still a very ordinary person. After receiving Gu Zheng's guidance, he now had such strength. This was something he didn't dare to imagine before.
Of course, he knew who brought all of this to him. He respected Gu Zheng even more.
"Very good. You did well. Hurry up and take a rest." Gu Zheng smiled slightly. His small praise made Xiao Lan and Ah Shuai overjoyed. They quickly sat down at the side and began to recover.
Outside, the morale of the crowd had recovered slightly. At least there were two powerful little guys. At least they did not have to be afraid of an ordinary team of bandits.
On the other side, Li Shang was also thinking that since the two young masters and young mistress were so powerful, there was no reason for their father and mother to be so weak. Maybe this time it was really a blessing from the heavens that he had pulled in a big shot.
Due to the fact that they had wasted quite a bit of time and that everyone was still in a state of panic, they had already found a place to rest before the sky turned dark.
After everyone had a good dinner, they went to bed very early.
The entire camp was quiet again. Only a few night watchers around stood alone in front of the campfire, looking around vigilantly.
The night gradually deepened. However, at dawn, a sudden vibration came from the ground. It was as if hundreds of cavalry were galloping from the surroundings. Everyone was instantly awakened.
Everyone hurriedly got up again and gathered in the middle. They looked outside in horror. However, the huge vibration came and went quickly. It soon disappeared from everyone's ears.
Li Shang initially thought that it was the bandits chasing after them. He was terrified. However, the group of people flew past his camp not far away. He did not know whose people they were. No matter what, he felt that they had escaped a disaster.
As a result, everyone was not sleepy anymore. It just so happened that the sky was about to brighten. They quickly packed up and got ready to set off. Li Shang once again came to Gu Zheng's carriage. After seeing the figure inside and confirming that the other party was awake, he asked in a low voice.
"Young master, do you know who passed by just now? Was it the patrol army of the Lan Nation?"
However, there was no reply. Li Shang was anxious. He did not know if the other party had seen through his thoughts. When he was about to apologize, Gu Zheng's voice came from inside.
"Let's go. I am here. No matter who it is, no one can block our way." A domineering voice came from inside the carriage.
Gu Zheng considered that if the other party directly abandoned the goods and left, then he would have to drive to Feng City. This would disrupt his recovery plan. Therefore, he directly gave the other party a reassuring pill to prevent the other party from thinking too much.
"Yes, young master." Li Shang said respectfully. He only felt that his body was as light as a feather. It was as if he was flying when he walked.
He did not expect that the mountain would not cut off the road. Hearing the other party's domineering answer, Li Shang made up his mind to go directly to Feng City. With the young master's assurance, there would be absolutely no problem.
In order to appease the people, he also privately revealed to everyone that the young master in the carriage was a strong martial artist. As for how strong he was, he asked everyone to refer to the boy and the girl.
This kind of ambiguous words was really effective. When everyone thought that Xiao Lan was so powerful, they immediately felt relieved. They thought that the young master in the carriage was at least a fifth-order martial artist. Even if they thought about it, it was not impossible for him to be an immortal.
Thinking of this, everyone's mood suddenly returned to its original state. Full of confidence, they rushed forward. All the previous worries were thrown to the back of their minds.
However, their good mood only lasted for half a day. Near noon, after they crossed a small hillside, the whole team instantly felt that they had fallen from heaven to hell. They were stuck on the hillside and could not move forward or backward.
Below them was a slightly lower hilly area. At this time, in front of them were densely packed heads, almost covering all the open space in front of them.
There were close to a thousand bandits scattered all around. In the middle was the large merchant group that had left first. Although the hundred or so guards were still blocking the way outside, their pitiful expressions were like that of a wronged daughter-in-law.
As long as the opposite side rushed over, it was estimated that these people would be drowned.
In the caravan, everyone was in a mess, but no one dared to foolishly rush out. That was simply courting death.
As soon as they appeared, they immediately attracted everyone's attention. Thousands of pairs of eyes looked over, especially the eyes that were filled with killing intent, instantly paralyzing the people in front of them.
There were actually so many roving bandits. Looking at the neat formation of the opposite side, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was an army. This made Merchant Li and his group want to cry but have no tears. Especially the roving bandits blocking the caravan at the back, there were already more than a hundred people slowly approaching.
It was estimated that yesterday they galloped past the edge of their camp.
This was great, they were really sheep in the tiger's mouth, or they were foolishly sending themselves to the door.
Just when Merchant Li did not know what to do, a faint voice sounded in his ear.
"Continue forward."
Merchant Li was stunned and looked at the carriage behind. He was sure that it was young master Gu who was talking to him, but the other party was already in the carriage and did not attack. Could it be that … Merchant Li did not dare to think about it anymore. He bitterly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but he still listened to Gu Zheng's words and signaled to the people behind him.
"Everyone, continue forward. You guys help the people in front get on the carriage." Looking at the puzzled eyes of the crowd, he pointed at the carriage with his finger.
At this point, everyone could only believe in Merchant Li and the person in the carriage. Otherwise, what else could they do? If they ran away, they would definitely die. If they followed this mysterious young master, at least there was a glimmer of hope.
Under the stunned eyes of the crowd, the caravan that had stopped for a while slowly moved forward again, as if they did not see such a strange scene.
Even the roving bandits nearby were stunned. They did not know if the other party was scared silly or really not afraid of death. There were only a dozen people, and just when they were about to teach them a lesson, a person from the side of the group was thrown out and whispered a few words to him.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he actually led his own people to retreat.
But what happened next made the people in the caravan surprised. Not only did the other party retreat, but they also opened a path for the other party and let them in.
Of course, the roving bandits knew, but seeing how bold the other party was, they wanted to see if the other party would dare to leave after letting them in. Anyway, it was food in their mouths, so they were happy to see it.
In the middle of the caravan, there were a few people in a similarly spacious and inconspicuous carriage. The atmosphere was tense.
One of them could not help but ask, "How did the other party know that you are here? They actually managed to persuade so many roving bandits, and there are even some elites among them. It is obvious that they are here for you. It was clearly stated on the note."
In front of them, there was a piece of paper. On it was written that Young Master Wei had to hand over the things he was carrying. If Young Master Wei did not take the initiative to leave when the time was up, then don't blame them for being merciless.
"I have already informed General Bai to come over. I'm afraid that the other party also knows about this. Otherwise, they would have come here sooner rather than later. General Bai will be here in half a day," Young Master Wei said in a low voice.
As for the guards he left outside to keep watch, he originally wanted to find out more about the other party and find a chance to kidnap the beauty back.
But now, they probably would not be able to return. With so many people, even if the two of them were Tier 5, they would die if they forced their way through. It seemed like they could not be counted on for now.
"You mean to say that we have a spy here? Or did General Bai leak the news? "Du Yu asked.
"That's not important. Yu 'er, the other party already suspects that you are here. At least, they are very confident. They are only giving you this letter to threaten you," Du Yu's father, Du Yong, said.
"Then what should we do next? We can't let Young Master Wei go out, "the first person said as he tapped his finger on the table.
"I still have one more treasure here. That person gave it to me. Even if it is discovered, it can last for a period of time. But many people might die," Young Master Wei said as he touched a ring on his finger.
