Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1415
"Mountain bandit?"

Hearing the screams in the distance, everyone around the fire stood up in astonishment.

"This is near Luoyang City, why are there bandits?"

Ying Baoyue clenched her fists slightly, listened carefully to the sound in the distance, her eyes were piercing, "It's not so much a mountain bandit, in the Northern Wei Dynasty, it should be called a horse thief."

Horse thieves can be regarded as a specialty of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

There are many bandits in troubled times. Ying Baoyue and others have come across bandits a few times along the way, but most of these people occupy the mountains as kings, and many of them are ordinary people who cannot survive nearby. Caravans make a living and rarely go down the mountain to hurt the villagers.

But horse thieves are different.

Horses were produced in the north, so another kind of bandit was born that was different from bandits.

That is the even more vicious horse thief who robs houses and houses everywhere.

Unlike ordinary bandits, most of these horse thieves are desperadoes with their lives on their backs. They ride on horseback and are highly mobile, often running around.This group of people has excellent riding skills and is familiar with the terrain, and they have extremely strong combat effectiveness in the wild. Even the orthodox officers and soldiers are very difficult to destroy.

Ying Baoyue's face sinks like water. In a sense, this is very similar to the Xi Rong cavalry who invaded the border.

It's just that these people are all from the Northern Wei Dynasty.

But these Northern Wei people did not have the slightest sympathy for their compatriots, they burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of crimes.

Hearing the woman's scream in the distance, Ying Baoyue changed his face, tipped his toes, and jumped in the direction of the sound.

"Embrace the moon!"

"Leave ten people to protect An Ge and the others. Others can follow if they wish, and wear their masks. The martial arts camp will be deployed by Rong Qing. It's not easy for you to be exposed. Whether you want to show up depends on the situation."

Ying Baoyue quickly ordered while running.

Everyone moved immediately and pulled off the human skin mask on their faces.

Ying Baoyue traveled extremely fast, and soon a burning village appeared in front of her.

Blood splattered, and all beings wept.

The young and the strong were slaughtered, the houses were burned, the female relatives were abused, and the old and weak were stabbed to death.

The horse thief's vulgar laughter rang in her ears. This was a scene that any sane person would lose his mind when he saw it.

However, Ying Baoyue stood at the entrance of the village, her eyes were as cold as ice.

Ji Jiashu was second only to her in speed. Seeing this scene, he stopped, his pupils constricted violently, his eyes turned red, and several auras danced chaotically around his body.

It was the first time he had seen such a bloody and cruel picture full of human evil.

"Adjust your breath," Ying Baoyue said quietly with his back turned to him, "Don't come in if your breath is not smooth."

Ji Jiashu was taken aback for a moment, but Ying Baoyue had already disappeared in front of him.

There was not even a trace of disorder in her footsteps, she just swept lightly, stepped into the village entrance, and kicked away the strong man of the Northern Wei Dynasty who was pressing on a woman.

"You..."

The horse thief's words failed to come out, his obscene smile froze on his face, and he slowly lowered his head to look at a hole in his chest.

A sword pierces the chest.

Ying Baoyue drew his sword so fast that Ji Jiashu didn't even see it clearly.

Blood splashed all over the face of the woman on the ground. She covered her skirt and got up, staring at the plain girl in front of her.

This girl killed a horse thief?
"Get dressed."

However, Ying Baoyue didn't look at her, just dropped this sentence lightly, and her figure disappeared again.

A clump of blood bloomed in the distance, and wherever she went, a horse thief would surely fall down.

Ji Jiashu watched Ying Baoyue raise his sword and slash all the way, even calmer than when she was standing on the battlefield. She has faced such things countless times.

You, what have you been through?
who are you?

Ji Jiashu closed his eyes, and realized that the breath in his chest had finally calmed down. Seeing Ying Baoyue's movements, he already understood why she asked him to calm down before going in.

Otherwise, because of the momentary anger, he would not be able to see his surroundings clearly, and he would kill a horse thief if he caught him.

In this case, the efficiency of saving people will be extremely low.

What can really save people is her current state of heart as hard as a stone.

At this moment, Chen Zichu and the others also arrived, and almost all the teenagers were stunned when they saw this scene.

Time was running out, Ji Jiashu hurriedly explained Ying Baoyue's words to them, then rushed into the village entrance and started to save people.

"Where did the nosy practitioner come from? Brothers, get on the horse!"

At this time, the horse thieves who were enjoying themselves in the village also realized that something was wrong, and rushed to their horses one after another. When Ji Jiashu arrived, four horse thieves had already surrounded Ying Baoyue with their horses.

"Stamp this woman to death!"

Even practitioners still have little advantage under the iron hooves of horses.

Ji Jiashu gritted his teeth, a bolt of thunder rose from his sword, and slammed on a horse.

"This is……"

The horse thieves showed a look of horror.

"Thundermaker? Wait, isn't the King of Beixun already..."

"Open your dog eyes! This is not him, this kid is..."

Ji Jiashu fell to the ground and rolled, and hid behind a burning hut. Hearing the sound of horseshoes approaching, he exhaled heavily.

There are too many horse thieves in this group, if they all get on horses and surround them individually...

"Boys, line up!"

At this time, a clear female voice suddenly came from outside the village. Ji Jiashu was startled and heaved a sigh of relief.

Mu Rongqing is here.

Mu Rongqing joined the battle with the martial arts battalion.

The tragic images in the village obviously also greatly stimulated the Mu family teenagers, but the advantage of the Mu family formation is that they don't need to think. Everyone in the martial arts camp with red eyes, under the cover of the shield in front, brandished their swords. The saber launched an attack on the horse thieves all over the village.

Hissing, screaming.

Blood spattered, staining the sunset red.

……

……

"Thank you soldiers..."

The sun had completely set, and at the entrance of a messy village, an old man covered in wounds, supported by young people around him, bowed down to Mu Rongqing and the others.

Mu Rongqing looked at the surviving old village chief with a complicated expression, and waved his hands, "You don't need to thank us, we will obey orders."

"Besides, we are not soldiers."

The old village head was stunned for a moment. He listened to Mu Rongqing's accent with a complex look on his face, "Girl, you are not from the Northern Wei Dynasty, are you?"

"I'm not," Murong Qing said lightly, "otherwise I should be in Ninggu Tower by now."

The old village chief choked and said guiltily, "We..."

"This matter has nothing to do with you ordinary people." Mu Rongqing waved his hand and looked in the direction where Ying Baoyue had already left, "We happened to be nearby today and came here when we heard someone calling for help. We didn't have any casualties. You don't have to do this care."

"No, no, there is no way to repay a life-saving grace," the old village chief knelt down with the rest of the village on his knees, "I also invite the military master... No, the volunteers will be respected by the old man."

"Rebels?" Mu Rongqing was startled.

She quite likes the name.

Mu Rongqing stepped forward to help the old village chief, "You don't need to be polite, we are just passing by and will leave soon, horse thieves are running around, you should be more careful."

The old village chief smiled wryly, "Three years ago, His Royal Highness had been at peace for a long time after he wiped out the Beihai horse thieves. Now that something happened to His Royal Highness, it will not be peaceful again."

County king?Mu Rongqing was taken aback for a moment, remembering that Lord Guanghua Yeluhua made his name in the world by exterminating horse thieves back then.

The horse thieves are making a comeback because of his accident?
Mu Rongqing let out a long sigh, turned around and prepared to leave with the martial arts camp.

"Wait," a hoarse female voice suddenly came from behind her. Mu Rongqing turned around and found that it was a woman in scantily-clothed clothes.

Seeing her appearance, a trace of sympathy flashed across Mu Rongqing's eyes, "Girl, what's the matter with you?"

The woman stared straight at Mu Rongqing, and suddenly asked, "Is the girl who was the first to rush into the village a practitioner like you?"

Mu Rongqing was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"what is her name?"

As the bright moon fell from the sky, Mu Rongqing's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the scarred people at the entrance of the village and spoke softly.

"She's a princess."

"We are her soldiers."

……

……

Ying Baoyue was the first to enter the village, and the first to leave after the horse thief was repelled.

Mu Rongqing returned to the camp, looked at the girl who was quietly bandaging her wound by the campfire, and walked over.

She found a pure black pigeon sitting on Ying Baoyue's shoulder.

"Your Highness," she asked, "where shall we go next?"

Ying Baoyue took down a secret letter from Heitan's feet.

"Zhao Guang just received the news that Yelulang will drive to Pingcheng tomorrow, where the enthronement ceremony will be held."

Under normal circumstances, the king of the Northern Wei Dynasty would hold the enthronement ceremony in the current capital, but Yelulang wanted to return to Pingcheng to enthroned. This was probably not only because Pingcheng was the old capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

When it was written in the Northern Wei Dynasty that Meng Shi and Yeluhua's mother would be executed at the enthronement ceremony, Ying Baoyue was thinking about how to do this at the same time.

Now she understands.

"Rong Qing," she said calmly, "I guessed right."

"Ninggu Pagoda is in Pingcheng."
