Qing Ming

Chapter 103 The Caravan Attacked

The Langxing Plain to the north of the Tianxing Empire can be seen for thousands of miles. It is now the depths of winter, withered yellow thatch crawling feebly on the ground, and the leaf stems are covered with a layer of crystal ice, which rattles when stepped on.

This is the only way for the exchanges and commerce between the two countries of Tianxing and Hanbing. There is an endless stream of caravans passing here for many years. He robbed the passing caravan. It is said that the leader of the thieves had superb combat skills, and the guards in the caravan were no match for him.

Fortunately, there are not many thieves in this group. If they obediently give all the belongings of the caravan, they will not hurt people's lives. However, this group of thieves prefer women. They will be driven to death by them, and the cruelty and appalling methods they use are appalling.

The Langxing Plain is at the junction of the two countries, but the armies stationed by the two countries are far apart. It was futile to send troops to encircle and suppress them several times, so they had to ignore each other, which instead encouraged the arrogance of the bandits.

Even so, many caravans could not resist the temptation of high profits brought by Xuanjing Hantie and took risks. If they were robbed, they could only consider themselves unlucky!

Another bay red horse came along in the wilderness, and immediately sat a man with a dejected expression. His thin scholarly shirt was already filthy, the stubble on his face was stained with dust, his head drooped, and he looked sickly. Walking aimlessly in the wilderness.

This man is Liu Qiankun. Since he left the imperial city alone that day, he has been galloping all the way. He doesn't know how far he has traveled. The anaconda rushed back, and brought the pig's baby back to the Ten Thousand Beast Forest.

The red boa could not resist him, so he had to leave sadly. Liu Qiankun walked northward for an unknown number of days, and finally came to the junction of the two countries: the Wolf Walking Plain.

Now he is like a wounded lone wolf, he doesn't need friends, and he doesn't need anyone to care about him, he just needs to find a place where no one knows him and lick his wound alone!

He walked very slowly. He didn't know where he was going anyway, no matter how fast he walked, it was useless. The ice under the horse's hoof was trampled, and the rider on the horse was drowsy in the cold wind...

Kachacha... There was a chaotic sound of wheels coming from behind, and there was another caravan without looking at it. He had seen many such caravans along the way, and each of them seemed to be exhausted, which made him frown and secretly Cursed: "Damn, this damn place also knows that time is money..."

The sound of wheels approaching from far away, Liu Qiankun didn't even bother to turn his head, and he naturally didn't bother to pay attention to things that had nothing to do with him.

Horses passed by him, and the athletes on the horses were holding swords, guns, swords and halberds, shining coldly in the cold sunlight. There were hundreds of them. Needless to say, these were the guards of the caravan behind. He had seen quite a few guards, but this was the first time he had seen such a sturdy and huge guard, so he couldn't help but look sideways.

"Huh!" Liu Qiankun was very puzzled, because he saw that there were only a few carriages behind, but they were all caravans pulled by six horses, and the wide wheels made deep marks on the ground. , it seems that the items on the car are extremely important.

He walked very slowly, so that the carriage behind him quickly came to his side, the heavy wheels crushed the icicles on the ground and scattered, and a piece of solid ice was hitting the bay red horse's calf.

Boom!The bay red horse let out a long neigh under the pain, raised its front hooves and almost threw Liu Qiankun off the horse's back!

"Damn it!" Liu Qiankun pulled the reins with both arms, restraining the frightened horse completely still, and uttered an angry curse.

"Stop!" There was a scream from inside the hood, the driver tightened the leather rope in his hand, and the caravan beside him stopped suddenly.

A corner of the curtain of the car was lifted, and a white wrist like jade protruded from it, with a golden leaf sandwiched between the slender fingertips, a gentle voice floated out.

"The horse that surprised your Excellency, I will accompany you with a leaf, enough for you to nail two high-quality horseshoes!" The golden leaf on the fingertips shook slightly twice.

Liu Qiankun was stunned, the voice was so familiar that he forgot to go up to catch the shaking golden leaf.

The big man driving the carriage seemed a little displeased when he saw this, and said in a deep voice, "Brother Baby, hurry up and pick it up, this leaf money is enough for you to buy another good horse!"

Liu Qiankun unexpectedly rode forward, gently picked up the thin piece of leaf money with two fingers, and froze in place, watching the caravan move again, slowly moving forward...

The golden leaf on the fingertips exudes a faint fragrance, Liu Qiankun frowned slightly, and sighed: "It's not her, and it's not this kind of fragrance!" With a gloomy expression, he casually inserted the golden leaf into the crack of the horse's bridle, Hit the horse and go forward.

The caravan has gradually drifted away, and disappeared from his sight in a short time. The cold north made everything tremble, and even the nostrils of the horses kept emitting bursts of white air. Liu Qiankun was not afraid of the cold, because A thick layer of ice had already formed in his heart!

I don't know how long I walked, but this cold plain seemed to have no end. Under the sunlight, the ice on the thatch also melted a lot, and even the ground became soft and muddy.

A burst of chaotic metallic clinking made him lift his lowered head. Looking at the sound, he could vaguely see a large group of figures swaying to the left and right hundreds of meters ahead, with white lights flashing from the weapons in their hands, the sound of fighting, the sound of horses honking The sound of wailing, wailing, and the impact of weapons came to the ears far away.

"Drive!" With his legs clamping the horse's belly, the bay red horse galloped vigorously. Liu Qiankun did not treat this good horse badly along the way. He was really handsome when he ran, with four hooves flying, splashing mud and water When it reached his back, a lot of mud was added to his already filthy gown.

The distance of hundreds of feet approached in an instant, and the bloody scene in front of him made Liu Qiankun's heart tremble violently. Hundreds of corpses were lying on the ground, and the ground under them was stained dark red with blood. The wailing, the severed limbs of the disabled soldiers were shocking, and there was a strong smell of blood in the air...

Not far away, several large carriages were close together, and more than a hundred guards with weapons surrounded the carriages. A group of sturdy men in black were waving their sharp knives and attacking the people beside the carriage. The number of people is several times more than that of the guards.

Horses are useless at this moment. In short combat, two legs are more flexible. Although the number of guards is not dominant, they are not chaotic at all. The offensive, but the number of each attack will be reduced by a few, and sooner or later the casualties will be exhausted!

The men in black had already surrounded the guards beside the caravan, and the encirclement was shrinking step by step. The two men in black were riding on horseback and watching coldly outside the circle, with drops of blood dripping from the long sabers in their hands!

The two men on horseback also saw Liu Qiankun not far away, and one of them slapped the horse's belly with his legs, da da da!Stepping forward a few feet, pointing at Liu Qiankun with the long knife in his hand, he shouted violently: "Hei Yuntuan is doing business, if you don't want to die, get out of here!" The flesh on his face trembled, his appearance was really hideous.

Liu Qiankun didn't move, his body was straight, like a javelin standing against the wind...
