The flow of young people's singing and drinking water

Chapter 258 This is called toll

"tick, tick"

The sound of water flow came from the tunnel, and it was extremely clear in this narrow passage.

"Is there a big river above us?" Yang Ming thought of something and quickly asked Zhu Baokun.

This kind of thing cannot be done carelessly, and the road in front of them might be flooded.

Zhu Baokun was also a little unsure. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "It is winter now. Even if there is water dripping down, it should not flood the channel."

After thinking for a while, he still said: "The road we took is not the one we came here originally, but the general direction is right."

Yang Ming also disagreed with Zhu Baokun's statement.There is no navigation and positioning in this world, not to mention that it is still underground. As long as the general direction is correct, walking back is not a problem.

"Otherwise, let's go up. If we suddenly get flooded while walking, it's no joke." Lei Wujie suggested.

When he was at sea before, he fought with Tang Lian and fell into the sea; he didn't want to feel that choking feeling again.

"Okay." Zhu Baokun also felt that it would be better to play it safe.

"We are only one day away from going back. We only need to pass through one city to get back to Yueluo City."

Yang Ming nodded: "Okay, then you lead the way."

The people in the tunnel no longer have a sense of time, they only know to rest when they are tired.

When they walked out of the tunnel, the morning light broke through the sky.

After briefly observing the surrounding environment, Zhu Baokun quickly determined the location of everyone.

He took out a map and pointed to it: "Ahead, at most an hour's walk, we will be able to reach the nearest city, Tieling City."

"Passing through Tieling City, it takes at most half a day to arrive at Moonfall City."

"Lead the way." Halfway through the words, everyone noticed something unusual around them.

"Wait a minute." Yang Ming quickly called to Zhu Baokun who was walking in front.

Zhu Baokun also noticed the abnormality, the ground seemed to be shaking.

He looked stunned and said, "There are troops near us."

He said hurriedly: "My lords, let's go into the tunnel and take shelter."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Ming pulled out the Moli knife and completely buried the tunnel entrance with one blow.

"It's too late. The secret of the tunnel cannot be exposed for the time being."

This tunnel is of great strategic value to Yang Ming. Whether it is transferring troops or hiding people, it is definitely not easy to be discovered.How could Yang Ming let outsiders know so easily.

"Sir, how are we going to deal with these cavalry? Judging from the momentum, they must be a team of more than 5000 people." Zhu Baokun said anxiously.

"As long as we are here, you won't die." Su Yuluo glared at Zhu Baokun.

"Da da da." A sound of horse hooves sounded.

The arid land is filled with dust trampled by horseshoes.

The soldiers on horseback looked at Yang Ming and his party with fierce expressions.

"Huh~ Fortunately, they are alive." After seeing the appearance of these people clearly, Zhu Baokun let out a long sigh of relief.Seeing that these people had no intention of taking action, Yang Ming slowly sat on the stone beside him and looked at these people with interest.

These people are obviously dressed as Nanjue's regular army. Now, to the outside world, the situation in Nanjue Imperial City is unknown; masters from all over the world have been assassinated one after another.The memorials submitted by officials from various places to the imperial court were not approved at all.In troubled times, these troops actually engaged in banditry, which made Yang Ming a little embarrassed.

However, compared to real bandits, the combat effectiveness and discipline of these "bandits" are obviously not at a higher level.

"Brother Ming, these people are here to rob." Lei Wujie leaned into Yang Ming's ear and whispered.

"Uh-huh." Yang Ming nodded, and then greeted everyone: "Come over and sit down. When their general comes out, we will be fine."

Even Lei Wujie could see the clues, so how could others not know.Of course, except for Zhu Baokun, who was now frightened.

"What bad luck." Yan Xiluo complained, dragging Zhu Baokun who was collapsed on the ground, and sat next to Yang Ming.

"Tap tap tap." A white horse walked out of the military formation.

The man on the horse was wearing dark blue armor. The white cloak behind him was slightly yellowish, and the corners of the cloak were stained with a lot of blood.Perhaps due to the passage of time, these blood stains turned black.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" The man in Xuanjia said angrily, pointing a gun at Yang Ming and his party.

Yang Ming rolled his eyes and ignored his plan at all.Xiao Se didn't have any good impression of such a person, so he snorted coldly and turned away.

Helpless, Yan Xiluo stepped forward, bowed and said, "General, we originally fled south to come here, but now we have lost our way, so we accidentally entered here."

As he spoke, Yan Xiluo pointed around and said, "General, have we mistakenly entered your army's position?"

Thinking of this, Yan Xiluo cursed Zhu Baokun in his heart: Damn it, why did you get the exit to the military garrison? You are so brave.

Seeing that Yan Xiluo was neither humble nor arrogant, the man in Xuanjia knew that he was not an ordinary person, and his speaking attitude was no longer as tough as before.

He shook his head: "This is not where our army is stationed. It's just that there is a plague in the city in front. We are just ordered to catch those who escaped from the city."

Yan Xiluo nodded slightly, and then asked Zhu Baokun: "Is there any other way we can take?"

"Ah~" Zhu Baokun was kicked by Yan Xiluo, and then he came back to his senses: "Sir, no, I can only go through that city."

"Damn it." With a slight scolding, Yan Xiluo walked up to the man in Xuanjia and asked, "Sir, we are going to flee to Yueluo City in the north to find relatives. I wonder if the general can make it easier for me?"

"Convenient?" The Xuanjia man laughed and said, "You are openly bribing this general."

However, he didn't refuse, but wanted to hear the price Yan Xiluo could offer. If it suited him, he would naturally accept it.

From the first moment he saw Yang Ming and his group, he knew they were not someone to be trifled with.Who can escape all the way from the south and still be spotless?If you move your toes, you will know that all of these people have unique skills, and their martial arts skills will definitely not be low.He didn't want his cronies to die in unnecessary disputes for no reason.

After all, in these troubled times, if you don't have enough troops on hand, you may not be able to survive for long.

"Eh~" Yan Xiluo shook his head: "General, what is a bribe? Why don't you know? I just want to pay the general tolls so that my brothers can have a good meal."

As he spoke, Yan Xiluo took out several gold bars from his cuffs and stuffed them into the quiver of the Xuanjia man's saddle plate.

Looking at the dazzling gold, the man in black armor narrowed his eyes: "This brother, this general, seems to know you." He pretended to think: "I remember you are that one."

"Xiao Zhang, I once met the general in a teahouse in the imperial city." Yan Xiluo said very cooperatively.

"Hey, my brothers, why are you so polite?" As he said that, the Xuanjia man waved his hand behind him and said with a heroic expression: "Brothers, they are our brothers. We don't need to waste time. Let's go back to the camp. I will invite you. You drink."

"Farewell, General." Yan Xiluo clasped his fists towards the Xuanjia man and cursed at the same time: They are all his own family, and they still accept my gold.
