Chapter 15 The Road
"Miss, do you want to rest?"

Zhang Long, the leader of the guards, asked.

Riding this way, even men like them find it strenuous, but after two days of getting used to it, my young lady has completely followed the rhythm of the generals, and will only rest for an hour.

According to this speed, Zhang Long thought it would take a month's journey, but Zhang Long estimated that it would take more than ten days to arrive, which saved more than half of the time.

"There is a flat ground ahead, let's rest there!"

After leaving Zhili Prefecture, the roads began to be uneven. Even the official roads were full of rocks and weeds.

"Just here."

Su Zijin reined in his horse and stopped, and Zhang Long, who was following his young lady, immediately raised his hand to signal, "Everyone stay where they are and rest!"

Everyone got off their horses and sat on the ground.The guards of the Su Mansion are all from the army, and they are very disciplined. Sitting on the ground is also a group of ten people, but the horse's reins are not let go, so they let the horse stand beside or behind them, so that it is more convenient if there is trouble around them. action.There are also those who need convenience, and it is also waiting for all the people who need convenience to move together. In the wilderness, no matter how cautious you are, you can't be too cautious.

"Brother, don't wait. Ever since they left the city, they have never let down their vigilance. They even go to the toilet together. There is no room for us to take advantage of. But with so many of us, are we still afraid of them? Three beat one, mess around Kill him with a knife!"

A rough voice sounded from behind the hill not far behind the official road.

I saw hundreds of people squatting behind a small hill that was not too big or too high.Looking at their unshaven appearance, red eyes, and gray to black clothes that seem to be tired of a layer of dirt on them, it is not difficult to judge that they should not be civilians who work at sunrise and rest at sunset, but residents. There is no fixed place, a strong man who regards the sky as his seat and takes the earth as his seat.

At this time, the world is preliminarily determined. The best of these strongmen will be recruited by the imperial court. There is a mountain that almost becomes a king on its own. On weekdays, under the banner of robbing the rich and helping the poor, it does not harass the common people at will, but it can still live on. In the past few years, the worst gangsters are those who ask for money. They are not accepted by the government to recruit them, and they are kicked out of their habitat by other forces. Have a good few days.The folks commonly call them rangers.

The leader looked as if he was a little old, and he hesitated in the eyes of the disciplined and neat Su family guards.

These people are hard stubble at first glance. If they hadn't reached the point where they were at the end of their lives, he wouldn't dare to attack these people if he had the guts, but there was no way. The brothers were so hungry that they were going to eat people. , so the reaction is quick and the force is strong. They dare not approach the city at all, so this group of people is their last chance.Seeing their glamorous appearance, presumably after doing this, he can bring a few cronies to buy some property and live in the city. As for the others, they are just cannon fodder, and life and death depend on life and wealth.Thinking of this, the leading leader felt ruthless.

"Big brother?"

"on!"

With the sound of howling ghosts and wolves, Su Zijin and Zhang Long jumped on their horses immediately, and the guards followed suit, pulling their own horses and flying onto them.

"They are all homeless gangsters wandering around. Don't be afraid, Miss, just wait in line!"

Zhang Long guarded Su Zijin behind the two rows of guards. Through the gap between the horses, he could see that the screams of the bandits hundreds of meters away on the opposite side gradually died down, and they ran a little slower than when they rushed down the mountain. The new barracks I brought myself, this kind of performance will be kicked.

Being guarded by the guards, Su Zijin didn't feel afraid, but commented on those bandits like this.

Seeing that these people are worse than the new barracks, but they should have seen blood, so their faces are more fierce and their eyes are bare.

The guards drew their long swords out of their sheaths and waited for work at ease. They only rode up the horse when they ran down the mountain and were exhausted.Everyone galloped with all their strength and didn't hold back their hands. The horse's speed was already very fast in just a short [-] meters, and the long knife was raised high to reap the lives of the bandits below.

The snowflakes bloomed, the skin and flesh bloomed, Su Zijin forced himself to look directly at the past, neither dodging nor avoiding.

A large group of people rushed down the mountain together, and some people always broke through the queue and came towards Su Zijin.

The left-behind group harvested again, and only those dozen or so people broke out this time.

Although the leader is also dressed in down-and-out clothes, he is clearly dressed more neatly than other bandits, and the long knife in his hand is brighter and sharper.

"Miss rides back first, don't go too far, come as soon as you go!"

Zhang Long rode one by one, holding a long knife and galloping forward, one knife at a time, reaping the lives of those ragged people without false tricks.

Su Zijin's eyes widened, and he pulled out the long knife on the left side.Zhang Long entangled the dozen or so who rushed out by himself, and one or two rushed out of Zhang Long's long knife range, and ran towards Su Zijin with a fierce look, as if trying to scare Su Zijin with a vicious momentum. Jin, this tender-faced little lady.

Once the noble girl falls into their hands, they will win this battle.

The leader was one of the two who rushed over, and Su Zijin was also his initial target.

As for the long knife in Su Zijin's hand, he didn't pay attention at all.

Nobles know how to practice martial arts, and all kinds of routines and swordsmanship are colorful, but to kill a person, one only needs to cut down cruelly.Feeling the feeling of the knife cutting into the flesh, the warmth of the blood splashing on the face, after this test, the long knife in their hands will be lethal, and before that, the knife in their hands was just a toy.

The bandit leader rushed over and looked at Su Zijin with disdain. She's just a little girl. If you cut me down, can your knife see blood?
"Miss, back off!"

Zhang Long came down from the battlefield, of course he knew that the knife, which had never seen blood before, could not protect its master, so he immediately called for his own lady, wanting to wake up the lady who seemed to have been frightened and stunned.

Su Zijin's eyes widened, and she raised the knife in her hand. She didn't even have any momentum, and just slashed at it like that.

Inheriting the strength of the great general's father, this mediocre knife made great achievements in one fell swoop. The leader of the banditry was cut open by Su Zijin's knife, and almost all the blood was spilled on Su Zijin's body.

Su Zijin didn't blink, and didn't stop, looking straight at the man who was running behind the leader.

He was the one who had been encouraging the leader to come out just now.Because he followed the leader and met many people, noble girls like Su Zijin were easy to deal with, and sometimes they would be scared to the point of arrest if they shouted twice.

Watching the leader fall down with blood spattering, this man knew he was wrong in his judgment, so he knelt down on the ground and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, spare your life! The grassroots are also good people, and they were all coerced!"

As if Su Zijin had never heard of it, he slashed with a knife, and there was a long wound on the man's back, which was exactly the same as the leader's wound.

The sound of shouting and killing seemed to be silent for a moment. Seeing that the leader was dead, the gangsters burst into courage and fled in all directions, howling.

"Quick, catch up! Don't let one go!"

In front of their steeds and long swords, these bandits seem like little sheep seeing wolves, but once they are allowed to escape, they are out-and-out fierce beasts when facing civilians.So Zhang Long ordered not to let one go.

...

After more than an hour, all the talents gathered again, counted the number of people, and Zhang Long came over to report to Su Zijin.

"Miss, all these bandits have been wiped out. We only have a few convenient people here. They didn't get on their horses in time and suffered some minor injuries."

Su Zijin shook his head, "Uncle Zhang, you made a mistake."

Zhang Long was puzzled and looked at Su Zijin.

"The other one suffered internal injuries, and it is estimated that it will take a day or two to recuperate. Let's go to the nearest town quickly, or we will be in trouble."
