Longevity starts from strengthening internal organs

Chapter 201 Yingtai County, ambushed on the road
Not long after Yunyuan and the others left, Zhao Ya and his party also set off on the road.

The two convoys headed in the same direction, one behind the other.

Because the speed of the convoy is basically the same, the distance between the two sides is probably only three to five miles away.

For the first two days, Yunyuan was still a little nervous, thinking that Zhao Ya and the others were following him on purpose, until he saw that Zhao Ya and the others hadn't moved at all, and had been walking quietly all the time, his hanging heart was relieved.

In this way, after four days, they left Fengwei County and entered the jurisdiction of Yingtai County.

According to legend, in ancient times, there were emperors who built Yingtai here to welcome the immortals.

Although the legend has long been unverifiable, this place name has been handed down and has been followed to this day.

When Dayan was strong and prosperous, the royal family would send special personnel to the former site of Yingtai every year to pay homage.

But as the imperial power fell and the situation in the world gradually collapsed, this kind of sacrifice had naturally ended long ago.

The former site of Yingtai, which was once bustling, also became desolate, and was finally covered by weeds.

So when Zhao Ya and the others came to the former site of Yingtai, which is famous all over the world, Zui'er, who had always been yearning for this place, couldn't help but be disappointed.

"What, didn't you say that Yingtai reached the sky? It turned out to be a big earthen platform?" Zui'er muttered.

Shang Luoluo smiled when he heard the words, "Who told you that Yingtai is as high as the sky? In fact, according to ancient records, when Yingtai was built, that is, when it was the highest, it was only a hundred feet."

"Ah? You're so short, how can you welcome the legendary fairy?" Zui'er said with a face full of disappointment.

"You think, since you are an immortal, you must be able to fly. In that case, wouldn't the height and the height of Yingtai be the same?" Shang Luoluo explained with a smile.

Zui'er tilted her head, thought for a moment and then said with a sudden expression: "It makes sense!"

Then she looked at Zhao Ya at the side, "Brother Xiaoya, do you think so?"

Zhao Ya was helpless.

This silly girl can be really stupid sometimes.

The key point is that Shang Luoluo is very willing to tease her, and often deceives her by saying specious things, but Zui'er just likes this.

"I think this might not be an altar to welcome immortals at all, but a trap." Zhao Ya said bluntly.

"Trap?" Zui'er became even more confused.

Shang Luoluo was also a little surprised, "Why do you say that?"

"What do you think, what kind of characters are the ancient human emperors? According to the legend, the strongest is an existence that can reach heaven and earth. How could such a character build an altar to cater to immortals?"

"So I think this is not so much an altar, but more like a trap for animals. If there are immortals who dare to land here, they will not be greeted by incense candle sacrifices and people's worship, but by blades and bloody killings."

What Zhao Ya said was not just nonsense, because there is indeed a legend in this world about the last ancient human emperor who knows everything.

So in Zhao Ya's view, how could an existence capable of such a great deed build an altar to cater to immortals?
After hearing Zhao Ya's words, Zui'er was fine, and this was also because she didn't quite understand.

Shang Luoluo's expression changed, and then he lowered his head and pondered, obviously touched by Zhao Ya's words.

After a while, she raised her head and looked at Zhao Ya with admiration.

"Your idea is really novel. It sounds absurd at first, but it makes a lot of sense when you think about it carefully. Luoluo has been educated."

Shang Luoluo thanked Zhao Ya very solemnly.

Zhao Ya smiled, "I just said it casually, and it all comes from ancient legends, so it can't be taken as true."

"Even so, this is a rather novel perspective. It's a pity that the world is in chaos now. If it were put in the peaceful years before, just this idea you put forward is enough to occupy a place in the world of exegesis."

"Forget it then, I don't want to be an old man who spends all day digging through old papers."

"Then why do I also like to study ancient books? Old lady?" Shang Luoluo laughed.

She regretted saying this again.

Because it's so explicit.

Zhao Ya just said that he was an old man in the last sentence, and then he said that he was an old woman.

Isn't it obvious that they are trying to get together?
Just when Shang Luoluo's face was flushed, Zhao Ya didn't pay attention to this at all.

His face suddenly became serious, and immediately he flew to a big tree beside the road, looking into the distance.

His sudden move also startled everyone.

"what happened?"

"What happened?"

While the people were in astonishment, the sharp-eyed guards also noticed the clue and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"It's the caravan ahead!"

"Someone is robbing the caravan ahead!"

really.

When everyone stared at it, they saw that three or four miles ahead, the caravan that had been walking in front was surrounded by a group of strong men in green clothes, and they were already fighting.

At this moment, the guards couldn't help but change their expressions, and many of their hands trembled slightly.

Many of them had never seen such a scene at all, so they were naturally panicked.

Fortunately, the previous guard commander was a man who had experienced the world, so he calmed down quickly, restrained his subordinates sharply, so that they would not get confused, and then asked Zhao Ya, who had already landed on the ground.

"Master Zhao, what shall we do now?"

"Stand up to protect yourself!" Zhao Ya said without hesitation.

The guard commander was taken aback.

He thought that after seeing this scene, Zhao Ya would definitely lead the crowd to help the caravan.

Because it's actually protecting yourself.

If this group of strong men in green clothes who appeared out of nowhere wiped out the guards of the caravan, and then turned to deal with their own side, then they would be too alone.

Zhao Ya also saw his doubts, but did not explain, but immediately ordered the guards to surround the carriage into a circle.

These carriages have been remodeled, and the body of the carriage is inlaid with a layer of iron sheet, which can withstand the attack of arrows, and it is the best bunker at critical moments.

Shang Luo Luo Zui'er, Shang Jingchuan and others were protected at the core of the rim.

The guards stood guard on the outside.

After finishing all this, Zhao Ya explained to the guard commander and these guards.

"This group of strong men are not ordinary bandits. According to my observation, they should have come straight to the caravan."

Zhao Ya's inference is not without basis.

As the first person to discover the abnormality, he immediately noticed the abnormality of this group of strong men in green.

First of all, the clothes they wear are too new and too uniform.

This alone shows that they are by no means ordinary bandits.

Because even if it is as strong as Qingzhuling, its minions can't reach the point where everyone has a uniform.

Only important people have this qualification.

Secondly, the strength of this group of people is extremely strong. Zhao Ya found that there were several four-level fighters among them, and the rest also had three-level strength.

If any gang of bandits have this strength, they dare not say that they will change their dynasties, at least they will win a city.

So Zhao Ya immediately realized that these people should be running for this caravan, or even for that man.

Of course Zhao Ya didn't want to wade in such muddy water.

After listening to Zhao Ya's analysis, the guards, including the commander of the guards, all had expressions on their faces.

The guard commander gave a thumbs up and said: "Master Zhao, you are still very good. You found so many problems after just a few glances. If we rushed up just now, wouldn't we be taken advantage of?"

Zhao Ya didn't say a word, but was concentrating on observing the situation ahead.

If other caravans were really attacked by bandits, then Zhao Ya would not hesitate to lend a helping hand.

But this kind of thing is different. If you don't know the details and act rashly, you will really be taken advantage of by the commander of the guards.

Just as Zhao Ya stood still and watched the changes.

Yun Yuan has been driven into a desperate situation.

Especially when he saw with his own eyes that those warriors from the four realms presented by his grandfather were besieged and killed, his psychological defense completely collapsed.

"Second Yun, I am your elder brother after all, but do you really dare to do such a cruel thing?" Yun Yuan cursed.

Too bad no one responded at all.

Yun Yuan also knew that his half-brother would definitely not show up.

After all, this kind of thing is done in secret, but if it is made public, that old man Yun will kill him with his own hands no matter how he doesn't care about it.

But the more so, the more Yunyuan's heart sank.

From the moment he saw that they really dared to kill his guards, Yun Yuan knew that he probably would not be spared today.

Because his younger brother Yun Hao is clearly here to kill people and silence them.

Otherwise, he wouldn't spend so much money to use so many martial arts masters.

"Master, let's go!"

This seemingly inconspicuous old Ding was actually a martial artist of the four realms. Under his fierce fighting, he forced a bloody path, and then dragged Yunyuan to leave.

Because of his completely reckless style of play just now, this group of strong men were frightened by his power for a while, and none of them dared to step forward.

Relying on this rare opportunity, Lao Ding dragged Yun Yuan and stumbled out.

But at the moment when they were about to rush out of the encirclement, a figure suddenly rushed diagonally and swung a palm at Lao Ding.

Although the old Ding was covered with injuries, he still roared in the face of this blow, and then threw his fists desperately to meet it.

boom!
Fist and palm clashed, causing a huge sound wave.

Looking at this old man again, he was blown out without even making a sound, and fell to the ground with a plop, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Then I saw a person lightly falling in front of Yun Yuan.

This person was tall and strong like an ox, even in this cold early spring season, his upper body was still naked, revealing his gnarled tendons and bulging muscles.

Not only that, but there are tattoos all over his body, most of which are pictures of hell and evil spirits, and there are even many tattoos on his neck and face, which is daunting.

When he saw Yun Yuan with a sluggish expression, the burly tattooed man smiled.

"Young Master Yun, why do you want to leave in such a hurry?"

Looking at this strong man, Yun Yuan couldn't help but gasp, and his scalp felt a little numb.

Because he recognized this strong man.

This brawny man is the deputy leader of the Four Seas Gang in the capital city, named He Zhen, and he is a real half-step five-realm master.

Moreover, the Four Seas Gang is very powerful in the capital, and there are even rumors that it has something to do with the Xuanyang Sect, one of the three sects, which can be said to have deep roots.

And He Zhen, as the vice-leader of the Four Seas Gang, possesses half-step Five Realm strength, so he can be regarded as a well-known figure in the underground arena of the capital.

Unexpectedly, this time, Yun Hao actually spent all his money and moved this great god out.

Yun Yuan's heart turned cold in an instant, but he still forced himself to calm down.

"He Gangzhu, no matter what conditions that Yunhao promised you, I am willing to pay double. What do you think?"
