Great Zhou Tianzi

The convoy was moving very fast. In order to return to Dazhou earlier, Ji Jie ordered that all the rest of the time be spent on the road except for the necessary rest and meals.

Sima Xueran had some opinions on his actions. Her original words were: "Cao Qiudao doesn't have that perverted recovery ability. His injury will take at least ten days and a half months to fully heal. As the head of a big family , Without him directing on the spot, how could others dare to intercept and kill halfway?"

Ji Jie's answer was simple: "Because of saving face!"

That's right, the more famous a person is, the more he pays attention to his own face. Cao Qiudao and Ji Jie had a tie, and he was the one who was ashamed!Because he has been famous for almost 20 years, and Ji Jie has only been famous for more than a year.

Not to mention age, Cao Qiudao is twice as old as Ji Jie!

For a boy under 20 to be on par with a Juggernaut who has been famous for 20 years, either the boy's martial arts are too good, or the Juggernaut has a false name!

Cao Qiudao can't afford to lose this face. He will definitely get rid of Ji Jie in the shortest possible time and shorten the spread of the incident. If it is handled properly, the world will not know that there is such a thing, and will only continue to praise the sword master prestige.

There is another point that Ji Jie and the others did not expect, that is, the Cao family has good medicine to heal wounds quickly, and the dozens of wounds on Cao Qiudao's body are not too deep, and it only takes three to five days to heal with the good medicine.

But compared with Ji Jie's perverted physique, the good medicine of the Cao family is nothing.

The reason why Cao Qiudao chose to set off overnight was to gain time for action.At this moment, he was lying in the extremely soft carriage, watching the clansmen who were planting gunpowder below through the opened door curtain.

This is an inconspicuous small valley with a length of only a dozen feet. It takes only a blink of an eye to pass through it on horseback. No one would think that there is an ambush here.

Cao Qiudao raised his arm, looked at the unhealed wound, and said to himself with a smile: "Ji Jie, I just need to blow up your carriage. As for your followers, I am not interested at all, because there are no People pay for their lives!"

In addition to a large amount of gunpowder buried on the ground, Cao Qiudao also made countless explosion points on the high stone walls on both sides, and buried gunpowder in the same way. When the time comes, the sky and the ground will explode together, and the gods will never want to escape a small road. Life!

"I just want Ji Jie to die under the gunpowder I created!" Cao Qiudao continued to say to himself: "But, I will tell the world that you will die under my sword! So, when it explodes, you'd better not Die directly, I will personally send you a ride, hahaha!"

Standing behind the carriage was a man in black clothes and a black hat. He was Cao Qiudao's new shadow guard.

"Shadow, the task of igniting the fuze is entrusted to you!" Cao Qiudao said without looking back.

"I'm sorry Patriarch, my responsibility is to protect your safety!" Shadow replied in a cold tone.

Cao Qiudao raised his voice and said, "Your responsibility is indeed to protect my safety, but the most important thing is to obey my orders! Don't think that holding a stick of incense in your hand can act as the person who ignites the fuze. What is interesting is your judgment, you know when to ignite the fuse, and it will explode when the carriage arrives!"

"Shadow obeys Patriarch's arrangement!" Shadow lowered his head slightly.

The corners of Cao Qiudao's mouth turned up slightly, and he thought to himself that you are just cannon fodder raised by the Cao family, even if I order you to jump on Ji Jie's carriage with explosives, you have to do so.

After finishing the preparations, Cao Qiudao's carriage and people left one by one, leaving only one shadow guard responsible for lighting the fuze.

……

"Hey, why are you staying in the carriage if you don't go riding a horse?" Li Yuechan pouted, looking at Ji Jie who was "staying" in the carriage.

Ji Jie shrugged and said in a lazy tone: "Sister, please think about it before you speak next time, okay? I am the owner of this carriage, so I should stay here, but what about you?"

"I..." Li Yuechan was wronged, and couldn't think of a reason to refute for a while.

Sima Xueran smiled and said: "You can't stop for a while, you two will only hear bickering along the way! Brother Jie, or you can listen to Sister Chan'er and go out for a ride, we happen to have something to whisper!"

"Alright then, I just went out to relax!" Seeing Sima Xueran speak, Ji Jie naturally would not deny her proposal.

Not long after Ji Jie came out, the three women laughed like silver bells in the carriage, three women in one drama, this sentence really makes sense, women always have endless topics to talk about when they get together.

Soon, that unremarkable small valley appeared in front of everyone.

Ji Jie looked up at the sky, the blue sky was cloudless, Xiong Kui clamped the horse's belly, and the horse began to speed up, and ran forward while saying: "There is another valley, this time I go to check the terrain !"

In order to ensure the absolute safety of the journey, Ji Jie formulated a detailed travel plan. No matter whether it is a mountain or a river, in addition to the news sent by the scouts, one of the three brothers of the Xiong family should be rechecked to make sure that there is no serious danger. The troops moved in again.

Xiong Kui arrived there quickly, ran around flattering the horse and found nothing abnormal, and immediately returned to report the news.

"Your Majesty, be safe!" Xiong Kui said.

"Okay, speed up and pass!" Ji Jie ordered, and everyone urged the horses to move forward.

But the closer he got to the small valley, the more Ji Jie felt something was wrong. As for what was wrong, he couldn't be sure. The only thing he could be sure of was that what he felt was a danger signal.

However, the scouts and Xiong Kui did two surveys, but found no danger.

Is it because I have been suspicious too many times, and Is it an incorrect early warning produced in my consciousness?

definitely is!

Going forward, another forty feet away, Ji Jie and the carriage carrying the three girls will enter the valley passage.

No, the previous feeling is getting stronger and stronger.

"Stop!" Ji Jie shouted.

"Stop, everyone stop!" Although the three Xiong family brothers did not understand Ji Jie's intentions, they still carried out his order to the letter, and the carriage slowly stopped.

The heart of the shadow guard hidden on the top of the stone on one side hung in his throat. He was about to ignite the fuze. Seeing that Ji Jie led the crowd to stop, he quickly took the incense stick with the red flaming tip aside, not to let it go. Any sparks splashed on it.

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?" Xiong Kui asked.

Ji Jie shook his head and said, "I think this road is dangerous, maybe my feeling is wrong, but I'm still worried!"

"Why don't I go and have a look again?" Xiong Kui said.

"Don't!" Ji Jie said, "Suddenly there is a valley-shaped passage here. It's short and easy to be overlooked! Cao Qiudao understands my character. See through, so..."
