Rebellious Contract Beast

Chapter 306: Want money or people?

After that, Shen Yi didn't poke his head out to look out anymore, just lay on the seat and waited quietly.

Although Tsurumi Chuyun next to him had no expression on his face, he had already picked up a long sword in his hand and kept looking outside, wary of any disturbance.

The convoy moved forward for some distance, which took about as long as a stick of incense. No robberies occurred during this process, until Shen Yi heard the sound of knives being drawn outside and felt that the carriage had obviously stopped. , he looked outside again.

On the road ahead, I saw two boulders connected to the mountain standing there. There was a gap in the middle, but it was very narrow. It seemed that only a carriage could barely pass through. If the carriage were a little wider, it might not be able to pass. .

Looking at the sky outside through the gap, the blue sky and white clouds are like a ruler. Although it is a little curved, it is generally straight.

This should be the Yingkou Pass that Zhuang Qixiang mentioned. Shen Yi observed it. If he came to rob as a bandit, this place would be very suitable. For example, like the convoy led by Zhuang Qixiang now, as long as he dares to pass here, he will You can have people move some heavy objects to block the way and block the convoy here.

At that time, it was not up to you to fight how you wanted?

As for turning around?

On such a long road, there are almost no intersections to turn around. If you were to be Zhuang Qixiang, you would only have two options. The first is to abandon the goods on the carriage and run into the woods to survive. As for the second option... The kind of person who is determined to live and die with the cargo on the carriage. Before the carriage reaches the intersection, all the people on the carriage will be dead.

The former is exactly what the bandits want, the latter is a waste of both people and money. Anyone with a little bit of brains knows how to choose.

So Shen Yi didn't understand what Zhuang Qixiang was thinking. If he had known that there was such a dangerous terrain and that he might have been targeted by bandits, he would still go here.

With his strength, he is naturally not afraid of those bandits who block the road and rob, but people like him are most afraid of making enemies when traveling in the world, so if they really encounter bandits blocking the road, it will be a troublesome matter.

"Master Zhuang, don't worry, we are watching closely."

With a burst of laughter, the atmosphere in the escort team became relaxed. The escorts who were checking the situation jumped onto the carriage transporting the goods one after another, and continued to move forward while talking and laughing with each other.

But not long after, before the convoy was about to reach a steep slope, a very sudden sound sounded from the rear left.

Could it be that other roads have more dangerous terrain? Or is it just for the sake of face?

Licking his teeth with his tongue, he got back into the carriage. Tsurumi Chuyun next to him was a little at a loss. After looking around, he put the long sword into the storage space.

"Let's go, let's go. It's okay. Just be careful about the things in the car and don't break them."

Just when Shen Yi was thinking about this, the convoy stopped a hundred meters away from the Yinghai Pass. There was a sound of footsteps from behind, and he saw a dozen drivers carrying knives running towards the front. Soon people walked out without knowing what they were doing.

After confirming that it was safe, Zhuang Qixiang, who was riding at the front, loosened his grip on the scabbard.

The convoy slowly stepped forward and successfully exited the Eagle Gate. Outside, except for the bandits who had come out to observe the situation, there were no traces of the bandits.

"Hahaha!"

After that, the people in the team did not sing as loudly as before, but just joked and chatted each other, as if they had forgotten the tension just now, and the atmosphere quickly returned to the harmonious atmosphere it had before the fence.

"go!"

"Huh? There's no one there? It seems like you're overthinking it."

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

huh~

"Ok?"

Shen Yi blinked, feeling a little surprised.

I guess it's mostly the latter. After all, when the previous evictor told Zhuang Qixiang about the bandits, he looked nonchalant.

About two minutes later, someone came back from outside the Eagle Gate and shouted to the motorcade: "Master Zhuang, we have confirmed that there is no one around, so you can rest assured!"

"If it breaks, you sell it and pay for it."

Zhuang Qixiang nodded and ordered the convoy to move forward with a wave of his hand.

The sound obviously came from a distance, and the sound was very loud, a bit like a whistle, but Shen Yi couldn't tell what the sound came from in a short time.

"What is this sound?" he asked in confusion, and Tsurushi beside him saw Chuyun's face change slightly and replied: "It's Mingdy!" After saying that, she stood up and looked outside the carriage, but before she saw it, The Ming Dy she was talking about hit a carriage carrying goods in front of her with a clang, and broke into several pieces on the spot.

Looking up, he saw several figures holding bows on the cliff above. Zhuang Qixiang's voice then sounded, shouting: "We are from the Huwei Escort Agency. Where are the brothers above? We have something to talk about!"

Zhuang Qixiang's voice was very loud, as if he had a loudspeaker, ensuring that everyone could hear it clearly. However, the group of people who shot the hammer on the cliff ignored him. They took the lead and put their bows on their bodies and carried them directly. The few people behind him walked back, and their figures quickly disappeared, acting very indifferently.

Immediately afterwards, there was a rumbling sound from the slope in front. Zhuang Qixiang was startled. He quickly looked forward and saw a large number of rolling logs rolling down from the top of the slope.

In desperation, he shouted: "Get out of the way!" After shouting, he pulled the reins with both hands and used his own brute strength to force the horses under him to turn around and hide aside.

The others also reacted one after another and began to control the horses underneath them to avoid it.

However, the ramp in front was not long. After Zhuang Qixiang finished shouting, the rolling log in front was already close at hand. Someone moved a step slower and was knocked over by the rolling log. More rolling logs lined up behind him, rushing like a flood. Come.

boom!boom!

boom!

Soon, the man on horseback in front was forced to the side, and the rolling logs hit the carriage transporting the goods, causing the horses pulling the cart to scream. The structure of the cart was also damaged and fragmented under the impact of the rolling logs.

Fortunately, the first carriage carried enough cargo. After being hit by the rolling log, the cargo on it fell to the ground, blocking the rolling log behind, allowing the unresponsive people behind to escape by chance.

After adjusting the position of the horse under him, Zhuang Qixiang turned his head and looked in the direction of the motorcade with a ferocious expression.

"Come on! Brothers! After this is done, let's eat meat and drink wine! Play with women in Yichun Tower!"

"Eating meat and drinking wine! Playing with women!"

"Eating meat and drinking wine! Playing with women!"

"Rush!!"

On the top of the slope, all the rolling logs prepared by the bandits seemed to have been used up. Soon a large group of people appeared on the top, holding bright weapons in their hands and shouting like a group of hungry wolves who saw the sheep. Rushing towards this side.

Seeing these people, Zhuang Qixiang's face darkened. He looked behind the crowd. Among the bandits, apart from the gangsters who came running, there were three people on horseback.

The faces of these three people were covered, and they didn't know what they looked like, but they didn't rush together, they were just watching. It was obvious that among the bandits, those three people had a high status and should be the leader.

Taking a deep breath, he did not act impulsively, but dismounted and walked to the front and shouted: "Brothers, we all have something to say, don't mess around!" His voice spread quickly, but unfortunately the bandits rushed towards him. Instead of listening to him, he rushed faster, still shouting words like "eat meat, drink wine and play with women".

Seeing them like this, Zhuang Qixiang couldn't help but grit his teeth. What troubled him the most was the current situation. He would take action whenever they disagreed, without even giving him a chance to negotiate.

But his work as an escort is not for nothing. If there is no way to talk, the best solution is to have a fight and let some people know how good he is.

So he decisively pulled out the knife from his waist and slashed it down. The two bandits who rushed in front of him were knocked unconscious by the back of the knife.

The bandits behind him came up, but Zhuang Qixiang, as a pure-level strongman, how could they, low-level spiritualists or even ordinary people, be able to deal with him?

In just one breath, several bandits fell to the ground. Some of them were in better condition and just fainted, but others with severe fractures sat on the ground and kept wailing.

Zhuang Qixiang's several apprentices and the escorts who followed them also picked up weapons and rushed up, and started a fierce conflict with the bandits.

In the carriage, He Jian Chuyun had already taken out her sword. She did not take action immediately, but just watched. Zhuang Qixiang had no spiritual power fluctuations on his body. He just relied on his hands and feet to deal with these bandits, even though she did not do this to the bodyguard. She didn't know much about his profession, but she could also tell that the reason why Zhuang Qixiang didn't try his best was because he didn't want things to develop in a worse direction. Of course, it might also be for the sake of the future. After all, the route to Dalan Capital was very difficult for him. As an escort, you cannot only go once. The most important thing is not to have friction with the forces on the road or even to maintain a good relationship.

And the three people on horseback on the top of the slope looked like they were not easy to deal with.

So Tsurumi Chuyun decided to see how Zhuang Qixiang dealt with it first, and if it didn't work, she would join the fight.

"Xuanli, don't act recklessly. If you rush to help Brother Zhuang, you may do bad things with good intentions."

"I'm not stupid, I still need you to remind me."

"Then what are you looking at over there?"

"It's nothing, I just think there is someone whose figure looks a little familiar."

Hearing Shen Yi's words, He Jian Chuyun became curious.

"Who?"

"That one." Shen Yi stretched out his paw and pointed at the person on the edge of the Podingshan trio.

"The one on the left doesn't look familiar?"

"Uh..." She brushed back her hair that was blocking her vision, and the expression on her face was a little uncertain: "It seems...a little bit?"

He Jian Chuyun nodded slightly. The figure Shen Yi pointed to did look a little serious, but with his face covered, it was difficult to determine his identity, or it might just be a simple sense of déjà vu.

At the same time, on Zhuang Qixiang's side, as more and more bandits died in his hands, the three men with their faces covered riding on the top of the slope also noticed him.

Before they could have any conversation, the man next to him who looked familiar to both Tsurumi Chuyun and Shen Yi pulled out a steel knife.

"I'll go meet him!"

"Be careful."

"I understand, you can just watch here." After saying that, the man waved the steel knife in his hand, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and rushed towards Zhuang Qixiang like Li Xuan's arrow.

Sensing his malice, Zhuang Qixiang quickly noticed him. With a cold snort, he slapped a bandit away with his palm, then turned around and went to greet him.

When the distance between the two sides was less than ten meters, the masked bandit jumped up from the horse, raised the steel knife in his hand and slashed at Zhuang Qixiang. The momentum seemed to directly split him into two. Half.

It was a pity that his cultivation was not as good as Zhuang Qixiang. Before he landed, he found that the knife in his hand began to bend and deform. There was an invisible force destroying his weapon.

His face changed, and the masked bandit wanted to stop, but it was too late.

After destroying the weapon in his hand, Zhuang Qixiang slapped him with his backhand, sending the opponent flying several feet away.

Seeing this scene, the other two bandits on the top of the slope were a little surprised.

"It turns out to be a net level. It seems that this Huwei Escort Agency is not simple."

"The Huwei Escort Agency is quite powerful in Fengzhou City. If I offend them... Isn't it bad?"

"Don't worry. When I was still in Black Snake Town, even the head of the National People's Congress of the Chaying Division didn't take it seriously. The Huwei Escort Agency was only good at best, and it was far from the point where I couldn't afford to offend you. Besides, you I haven’t been to Fengzhou City either.”

"That's that."

"Okay, let them all go back. If this continues, I'm afraid all the brothers will be defeated in his hands. The boss is coming soon. If we can't take him down before then, won't we look too incompetent?" The middle one? The masked bandit said, and the other masked bandit next to him nodded in agreement, then raised his hand in front of his mouth and blew a loud whistle.

Hearing the whistle, the bandits below quickly retreated. Zhuang Qixiang also stopped when he saw this, looked up at the masked bandit in the middle, and asked: "Can we talk now?"

The masked bandit nodded slightly and asked in a joking tone: "You are quite capable and worth talking to us. Tell us what you want to do."

Zhuang Qixiang cupped his hands and said directly without beating around the bush: "Brothers, we are just like you. It's not easy for us to do things for money and just beg for food. Although we don't want to run into this, since we do, It’s not worth it if some people die, so please behave according to the rules.”

"What rules?"

"Don't hurt anyone. You can take the things, but you have to leave some for us to go back and deliver."

"So that's what happened, but we don't know much about your rules."

"What do you mean?"

"People can be spared, but all things must be left behind."

"You..." Zhuang Qixiang's expression stiffened.

Where did these bandits come from?

If you don't understand the rules, you will be wiped out by all forces in a short time. Could it be that you just fell into the trap?

Zhuang Qixiang's face became even uglier. When the masked bandit in the middle on the top of the slope saw that he was silent, he said impatiently: "Why, you don't want to? You have to choose carefully whether you want money or people."
