my unparalleled way

Chapter 26 First Meeting
After lunch, the convoy continued to move forward, and Lin Si sat back in the car to rest and practice spiritual power by the way.

In the afternoon, the convoy stopped again, Lin Si was curious, it shouldn't be time for dinner yet?He poked his head out and looked out of the car.

In front of him, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy with a long knife on his waist was standing on the spot leading a horse. Three knights surrounded him and questioned him. Then the middle-aged owner of the team got out of the car and asked again.

Then, Lin Si heard that almost the same words.

"Young man, who are you, why are you alone in this wilderness?"

"My lord! My name is Mu Zheping. I am a student who is going to practice in the Academy City. I accidentally got lost here. I hope I can go with your caravan! Please forgive me for disturbing you!" The boy raised his head and said gently laughed.

If it wasn't for the young man's short stature, thin body, slightly pale complexion and small eyes, Lin Si almost thought he saw the scene before him!
Rao is a middle-aged person who is open-minded, so he can't help becoming suspicious at this time.

This is too coincidental, the same scene happened once when I met Lin Sishi in the morning, and once again in the afternoon.It was a young man who went to the city of academy to practice again, went on the road alone, and got lost in this wilderness.

At this time, not only were the people suspicious of the young man, but even Lin Si became suspicious.

"My lord!" The leader of the guard stepped forward to block the boy with a knife, and then looked at the carriage that Lin Si was in without any trace, "It's too suspicious, it's not just him!"

The middle-aged man smiled, seemed to find it quite interesting, and continued to ask: "Where are you from? Why are you walking alone?"

The young man was slightly puzzled by how vigilant these people were, but he still smiled gently: "I'm from Chicheng, and I'm the only one in my family. I was with my companions, but we got separated!"

"How does a person practice? As far as I know, cultivation requires not only talent, but also skills and even medicine. All of these require money."

"After my parents passed away, I stayed at a relative's house. His family had a lot of resources and treated me very well."

"May I ask what your cultivation realm is?"

"First stage!" The young man grinned, "Middle stage."

"It's really a hero born out of a teenager, and he came out alone in the middle of the first stage!" The middle-aged man seemed to have something to say.

"My lord, I'm overwhelmed!" The young man named Mu Zheping didn't seem to understand, but smiled humbly.

"Go to the car at the back. There is also a young man who is as lost as you in the car. You can get close." The middle-aged man pointed to the carriage where Lin Si was in the back.

"Thank you!" The boy bowed and saluted, and then walked towards the carriage.

Watching the boy enter the carriage, the leader of the guards on the side couldn't help saying in a low voice: "My lord, it's too suspicious. Our trip is already dangerous. Many people want to harm your lord. I suspect that there is something wrong with both of them!"

"Hehe." The middle-aged man waved his hand, "If there is danger, there is no way to prevent it. It's better to keep the danger under your nose and watch it carefully."

The leader of the guard stopped talking, but paid close attention to the movement of the carriage.

"Hello, my name is Mu Zheping. I'm going to the city of academy to practice. Please take care of me." The boy entered the carriage and saw Lin Si, greeted him with a smile, and sat opposite him.

"Hello, my name is Lin Si. I am also planning to go to the city of academy to practice. I am also at the initial stage of cultivation. I am also lost. I also entered this convoy today." Lin Si grinned and waved to him. .

"Really?" The young man's face paused, and then he returned to his smile, "That's really a coincidence, it seems that we are very destined."

"Yes, it's really destined!" Lin Si said meaningfully.

"Which college are you going to?"

"I haven't figured it out yet, how about you?"

"me too."

The two of them seemed to have nothing more to say, Lin Si was a little suspicious of this young man, and this young man was not like a talkative person.After chatting for a few words, they closed their eyes and got up.

The sky gradually darkened, and the wasteland was too vast to see the edge.When the night sky was full of stars, the convoy stopped again and began to set up camp for the night.

Torches were lit around the carriage, and the guards took out the tents and pitched them up one after another, and then boiled water for cooking.

Lin Si and Mu Zheping also got out of the carriage, but at this time the surrounding guards looked at them with guarded and hostile expressions.

The two smiled helplessly, looked around at the busy crowd, but did not get close to each other.

The middle-aged man once again invited Lin Si to have dinner together, and even called Mu Zheping.Lin Si didn't refuse. He didn't have enough food, so he didn't have to hide it anyway.

Mu Zheping also readily accepted the invitation, so the five of them finished the meal under the vigilance of the guards.

Back in the car, the convoy stopped moving forward this time, the two chatted casually in the car, and Lin Si began to practice with his eyes closed.

Mu Zheping didn't practice, but took out a book from the package and read it.

A mountain forest hundreds of miles away from this wasteland.

Xiao Fang, a man from a remote town in Qingchuan Country, was leaning against a big tree, his chest undulating, and he bandaged the last wound on his body with a gloomy expression.

At this time, there were already more than a dozen wounds on his body. The long weapon wrapped in layers of cloth strips on his back had long been untied, and a long and narrow knife was stuck in the soil beside him. The blade was blood red, but it did not It wasn't stained with blood, but it was blood red in the first place.

"This time is really bad luck. It seems that after staying in Liaocheng for a long time, my heart has softened. I actually exposed my whereabouts because I saved a few merchants and killed a group of horse thieves!"

"It seems that I am really not suitable to be a good person! Except for the damn mark that was lit once half a month ago, there has been no movement since then, and it has exposed myself instead."

"If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have come out to look for that mark. Now that I'm being targeted, it's hard to say whether I can go back alive!" He looked at the dark and terrifying jungle, silently thinking about countermeasures.

Still in this mountain forest, there is a camp at the foot of the mountain dozens of miles away from the man, where more than a dozen people gather.

These people were standing or sitting, men and women, old and young, the only thing they had in common was that they were all carrying weapons, and many of them were also wounded.

"Starting tomorrow, let's search separately along this forest, the devil won't be able to escape far!" A middle-aged man in a blue Taoist robe with a black beard and a short spear on his back said to the others beside him.

"Look separately? After placing an order and meeting Fang Yu, who can survive?" A young man with a handsome face but a bit of a naughty face said.

"He was seriously injured." The middle-aged man said.

"But it's still not something we can deal with alone. More than 30 of us besieged him several times, but he killed fifteen of them. Others were more or less wounded, and now there are only 19 people left , I don't think it's a good way to separate!" said a big man with a double axe.

"Then what do you say? I don't understand why you Wushang Yundian didn't send the top elders in your sect after you discovered this demon, but informed us of Baiyun Dao and other sects, and they all just sent Those of us whose strength in the sect can only be regarded as upper-middle! Isn’t this sending death for nothing!” The middle-aged Taoist couldn’t help but get angry.

"The devil has kept his name incognito for many years, but his appearance was too sudden this time, and our sect has no time to dispatch experts, so we can only summon those who are closest to us to hold him back first!" An old man with white beard and hair and holding a whisk explained.

"Isn't that asking us to use our lives?" The middle-aged Taoist asked, "When will the masters in the door come?"

"It should be these two days!" said the old man.

"So, we can only wait now?" A beautiful long-haired girl in a purple-black cloak not far away smiled leisurely, her voice was pleasant and unhurried.

Everyone present was more or less injured, and she was a bit embarrassed, but she didn't have a wound on her body, and she didn't even have a tear in her clothes.She was leaning lazily beside a big tree with a weird scythe more than four feet long in her arms. She tapped the dead leaves on the ground with her slender legs and black boots. She didn't look like she was coming to fight, but rather It's like going on an outing.

But none of the people around expressed dissatisfaction with her. Hearing her question, a handsome young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes looked at the girl's lavender eyes that were half covered by the slanted bangs, and said with a smile: "Junior Sister Yin is right, I just have to wait!"

This act was to besiege and kill that person. Although they prepared hastily, they were still full of confidence at the beginning.They were the first batch to receive the news. Although the sect sent them a mission to try to hold that person down as much as possible so as not to lose his track, they didn't take it seriously.

After all, that person had disappeared for several years, and they had never fought against him before, thinking that like many legends, the strength of that person was exaggerated.They instinctively wanted to trample that person who was famous in the mainland many years ago, and wanted to get rid of that person before the help from the door arrived.

But after several battles, they really realized how ridiculous their initial arrogant self-confidence was.If he hadn't been seriously injured in the first fight when the man was caught off guard, he would have killed all the people in his group by now, right?
"Rest first. A few days ago, I informed the people of the Yue Kingdom. If he leaves this jungle, he will be discovered soon." A middle-aged man who seemed to be the temporary leader of the group Shen Sheng said.

So the others dispersed.
