Lin Yi stopped on the official road for a moment and then slipped back into the forest. He continued to move forward, looking for a place with smoke. Half an hour later, he ran out of a mountain village, holding two tattered clothes in his hands. Maybe it's because we are close to the border. People in the mountains are poor and it is difficult to find a pair of shoes that can be worn...
This is an uninhabited mountain col, and there is a shallow pond next to it, probably caused by accumulated rain. As soon as Lin arrived here, he looked around, then threw the clothes in his hands on the ground, thinking about washing up. If he walks on the road like this, he might scare people. Just as he took off the rag covering his body, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
Without thinking much, Lin Yi jumped forward suddenly. And a sword light suddenly came from mid-air and hit him in the back of the heart instantly. With a "bang", he jumped up from the ground and fell hard into the pond, causing a huge splash.
At this moment, someone fell from the sky, with a lifeless look on his pale face. His feet landed on the edge of the pond, and he raised his hand to recall the flying sword.
The water splash disappeared, and the person who had been assassinated was still soaked in the water and motionless. Although there was no scar from the heavy blow of the flying sword, his breath was weak, and it was obvious that he was seriously injured.
After paying a little attention, the visitor snorted in surprise and said disdainfully: "Naked, with long hair shawl, moving in a sneaky and hasty way, his true form appeared in the eyes of the Immortal after dozens of miles away, but he didn't expect it. The muscles and bones are quite strong..."
Having said this, the immortal couldn't help but feel proud. Uncle Master also promised a deadline of three days, he really underestimated someone in the sect! After the prisoner escapes from prison, he will definitely rush to the territory of Wugan. All he needs to do is pursue him with his sword, and he will definitely be captured! He laughed sinisterly, stretched out his hand to grab it in the air, and did not forget to yell: "Monster, look how you still make trouble!" The person who came was Zongtai who was ordered to arrest people. Without much trouble, he found Lin Yi on the mountain col. …
"Crash-" with a sound, a naked figure broke out of the water. Zongtai stretched out his hand and used a few yin energy to bind it, and then he was about to turn back to life, but unexpectedly the situation suddenly changed. The prisoner who was already under control suddenly sped up and arrived in the blink of an eye. He was startled and was about to step back and dodge, but he heard a "bang" explosion and the other party actually broke free of the ghost rope. Immediately afterwards, an iron fist came...
With a "pounce--", the sound was not loud, like beating Xu, but it was the sound that Zongtai, as an immortal leader, least wanted to hear in his life. After taking two steps back, he stood still and looked at the person in front of him in disbelief. In the other party's deep eyes, apart from the flash of murderous intent, there was only an indifference that was untouchable! That is the coldness that has been through long-term killing, that is the ruthlessness that sees through life and death, that is the arrogance that only looks at all things...
Zongtai slowly lowered his head and pulled his arms out of his waist. His vision went dark, and he collapsed like a pile of mud.
Lin Yi looked at the lifeless Zongtai in front of him and spat. He is not very capable and still wants to make a sneak attack. And if not, how could I succeed so easily? He picked up the dead body and walked down the mountain col, threw it in a ditch, and moved earth and rocks to bury it. As for the opponent's Qiankun Ring, he ignored it. Before the cultivation level has been restored, that thing is the source of trouble.
Returning to the original place, Lin Yi lay naked in the pond. After soaking for a while, he started scrubbing vigorously. Afterwards, he picked up the flying sword and shaved off his beard. If Zongtai dies, his fellow disciples will definitely not give up. If you are still the same as before. It's too eye-catching, so I have to be careful about it!
After burning the incense, Lin Yi threw the flying sword into the ground and walked away. When he reached a distance, he buried his shaved beard deeply before turning and running towards the distance. In the eyes of others, he looks young, is barefoot, and wears tattered clothes with a cane tied around him, making him look like a poor boy from the countryside. In addition, there is a branch stuck as a hairpin in the messy hair, which adds to the look of poverty!
However, perhaps because he had washed away all the dirt, the haggardness on Lin Yi's face disappeared, and he ran like the wind in the mountains and fields, feeling wild and carefree...
It was almost dusk, and Lin Yi panted heavily and appeared on the side of an avenue. After running for five or six hours, it was really too much! In addition, before going to Li Datou's home, he also wanted to visit Taoli County where Zhao Long was located. But going all the way in such a muddle is not the way to go. We still have to ask people.
This place is far away from the border, and there are gradually more pedestrians, carriages and horses on the road. A little further ahead, there is a fork in the road. There was a large car parked on the side of the road, and a woman in her thirties stood looking around.
After a while, Lin Yi arrived in front of the woman. He took a look at the beautifully decorated carriage, raised his hand to the other party, and said, "Excuse me, how to get to Taoli County..." The horse pulling the carriage was not as magical as the tiger horse, but was similar to the horse of Dashang. Almost the same, but a bit taller and stronger...
When Lin Yi looked at the carriage and horse, the woman looked at him with a look of disdain. A country boy who is so poor that he doesn’t even have a pair of shoes, uses a cane to tie his waist and a tree branch as a hairpin, and still dares to pretend to come forward and ask questions?
"Poor boy! Get away from me..."
The shouting and cursing suddenly sounded, and it was full of anger. Lin Yi looked back in shock, and then realized that they were coming for him. I saw that the woman was dressed in silk clothes and looked very luxurious. Her painted face was quite pretty, but at this moment, she was spitting all over the place and her expression was fierce. Not only that, she also pinched her waist with one hand and held the silk handkerchief with the other hand and shook it outward, as if she was driving away the bad luck that had not gone away for many years.
Lin Yi frowned slightly, his face darkened, and said: "It's just asking for directions. If you don't answer, then why do you say insulting words? You are not afraid of disaster coming from your mouth..." According to his age of several hundred years, there is no way I won't argue with a mortal woman. And when you meet such a person with such an unscrupulous mouth, it is normal for him to give you a few words of advice!
But unexpectedly, this time he was in trouble! The woman who looked like a wealthy family immediately pounced on her and roared like crazy: "You dare to scare me, a despicable boy who wants to sell your money, I'll beat you to death..." She waved her hands and shouted at her. Lin Yi grabbed it on the face, as if he was trying his best.
Lin Yi lightly dodged aside, and the woman couldn't hold her feet back and almost stumbled. He snorted and turned to leave. But the other party howled like a killing pig: "Hitting people! Poor boys are beating people, beating women..."
The scream was pitiful and shocking, but it was bluff and fierce in appearance. Seeing this, Lin Yi stopped walking. The corners of his mouth curled up coldly, looking at the woman with a joking expression. This situation is not unfamiliar. When the other party saw that he was not panicking, he would pounce on him angrily.
At this moment, the soft curtain of the carriage opened, and someone said softly: "Godmother! Don't bother me! Just reward him with some silver..." Then a little girl in her teens appeared and danced dexterously. Get off the car. She was wearing a light-colored silk skirt, holding a delicate purse in her hand, and took out a piece of broken silver and said: "This country boy, this is a gift from Sister Xiaoer, why don't you come forward to thank me!"
When Lin Yi was stunned, the expression of the middle-aged woman in front of him suddenly changed, and she actually complained with a wave of her hand: "Oh! Godmother is so angry with this poor boy that she is worried that she will get bad luck." Delayed my daughter’s rich future..."
No longer entangled, and not caring about the so-called reward, Lin Yi snorted and turned around to leave. He was only a few steps away when, with the sound of iron hooves, three tall tigers and horses came to him like a whirlwind, with three tall soldiers on them. The leader shouted in a deep voice: "Young man, don't leave..."
Lin raised his eyebrows and looked up. The middle-aged woman on the side had already taken a few steps, and said in a coquettish voice: "Oh! The superior officer is here. I've had a hard time waiting! Why doesn't Old Man Wang see you..."
"Damn it, the man who was driving the car refused to travel far after his family died, so I broke one of his legs..." The man who spoke jumped off the tiger jun, and the iron armor on his body made a clanging sound. He spat, held the steel knife at his waist, smiled lewdly at the woman in front of him, looked Lin Yi up and down, and asked sternly: "Does this poor boy know how to drive?" The two men behind him were also stunned. They landed on the ground, each wearing leather armor and sharp blades hanging from their waists. They all looked fierce, but they stared at the carriage happily. The little girl from before lost her beauty, she exclaimed and got into the carriage and lowered the soft curtain.
Lin Yi looked at everything in front of him quietly, thought for a while and said: "Although driving is not difficult, I have another place to go..." Before he finished speaking, the man named Cha waved his hand and said without doubt: " Damn it, it’s you! It’s getting late and we have to hurry..."
"How can this Shangguan force others to do something difficult..." Lin Yi remained unmoved. And the other party impatiently scolded: "Poor boy, don't be shameless! Let you drive, and I will reward you with a bowl of rice. If you don't understand, I will break your legs..."
The middle-aged woman took the opportunity to add insult to injury and yelled: "This boy deserves to die, Shangguan Cha will teach him a lesson..."
Just asking for directions, who did you offend? Lin grinned and sighed secretly! He followed the intersection and looked around, his hands gently clenched into fists.
At this time, someone in the carriage said: "We are going to the capital, passing through Taoli! If this little brother doesn't wait for me, he can also earn a bite of food for himself, wouldn't everyone get what they want..."
Hearing this, Lin Yi's eyes flashed. After a while, he slowly loosened his fist. In the eyes of these people, I am just a beggar with no clothes and no food to eat! However, the woman who has never been seen is actually a kind-hearted person! What a pity...
"Miss Xiao'er has already spoken. If you dare to mess around again, I..." The man named Zha was still about to have a fit, but Lin Yiyi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Forget it! Since you asked me to drive, you still have to drink and eat well." !" He jumped onto the cart with his bare feet, his posture was very skillful...
