Zen Strange Records

Chapter 254 Outside Dingning City
"Master, why don't you come with us." Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit stiff, Ai Cao quickly inserted in and said to her master.

Fu Daoqing pondered for a moment, then glanced at the longing apprentice, helplessly, and sighed heavily: "Okay, I have other important things this time, but I can't leave you alone, just one, by the way, Now that Feng Nu is gone, where did your puppet come from?"

"Oh, this was made by Senior Ren. Senior Ren is very powerful. The craftsmanship of making puppets is not inferior to your master." Although Ai Cao said innocently, Fu Daoqing still froze a little when he heard the words, and smiled awkwardly With a sound, Erdan Wu noticed something, but it was not easy to intervene, so he could only lower his head and eat fiercely.

Here, Fu Daoqing seemed to have noticed his gaffe, and suddenly changed the subject and said: "But it seems not safe to go to Dingning City at the moment. I heard someone say before that this time, a powerful master came from Mongolia, named Jura Datu, among the Mongolian troops that have rushed to Dingning, there are only a few of us, so I am afraid it will be difficult to handle."

"What are you afraid of, I'm here, just don't worry." Ah Ren interrupted Fu Daoqing's worry impatiently. Fu Daoqing curled his lips and stopped talking, but he was even more displeased with Ah Ren, and the meal was not enjoyable. , Not long after, Aren, who was full of wine and food, patted his stomach, glanced at everyone, and hurriedly urged: "Okay, I've done everything I need to do, don't waste time here, go to Dingning It's quite a distance."

The rest of the people had no objection, so the four people who came here turned into five people, they left Yunding Village together, returned to the bottom, turned around, and headed towards Dingning City.

Along the way, the road was very narrow and sparsely populated at the beginning. However, after turning to the main road, the road became wider and more pedestrians gradually appeared. This showed that several people had left the side path and entered the direction. The official roads of Dingning City have therefore entered an area where bandits are rampant.

It can be seen that the pedestrians encountered along the way are almost all caravans accompanied by large-scale guards, and like Wu Erdan and the others, a team with only a few people can be said to be the only one.

After walking like this for about three hours, the sky gradually darkened, and the few people who were on the road were already feeling tired. Finally, Shangguan Cai, who was the weakest among the five, was the first to suggest: "Let's rest here for a while. Well, it’s already getting late.”

Fu Daoqing looked at the sky and nodded: "Yes, Ah Ren, what do you think, little brother Ah Ren?" God knows how entangled Fu Daoqing was when he said this name, mainly because several people kept calling him senior, and he was not sure about the other party. age, I had no choice but to tentatively say.

Fortunately, Ah Ren seemed too lazy to pay attention to Fu Daoqing's address. Although he wanted to arrive early, he touched his stomach, which was a bit bottomed, and nodded cheerfully: "That's okay, I happen to be hungry too, so let's get some game." Come and eat.”

For this proposal, Wu Erdan naturally raised his hands in agreement, but unfortunately, after walking a few steps, a few people saw an astonishing scene, which disrupted all the arrangements.

"What happened here?" Ai Cao looked at the astonishing scene in front of her in disbelief, covered her mouth suddenly, and retched. The scene presented is really challenging people's ability to bear.

On a messy official road, there are hundreds of broken and incomplete corpses lying here and there. Most of these corpses are well-dressed. Combined with the uneven weapons that fell all over the ground, it is speculated that they should be robbers nearby. , and what really made everyone uncomfortable was that the heads of these corpses were all looked down, and they were piled up in a tower shape in a conspicuous position not far ahead. Just looking at them was enough to send chills down the spine.

"This is Jingguan." Fu Daoqing didn't want Ai Cao to behave so badly, so he just frowned, looked at the scene in front of him, and murmured in a low voice. But he still said coldly: "What a bunch of dogs, dare to use this kind of thing to spoil Grandpa's appetite, it's best not to let me catch it!"

Standing there for a while, the pale Shangguancai finally regained some energy, glanced at a few companions, and boldly took a few steps forward: "Although I really don't want to, let's check it out, I don't know who it is So brutal."

Wu Erdan nodded, handed the wormwood that was still retching to Fu Daoqing's care, and went to check it with Shangguancai. As for Ah Ren, he didn't mean it at all. I don't know if he intends to find the murderer, or he is waiting for the opportunity to find game.

"It doesn't look like it was done by one person." After checking it, Erdan Wu came to this conclusion. The wounds on this pile of corpses were scattered and varied, and it seemed that they had experienced intense violence with someone. Many people still kept their hideous faces during the fight, it didn't look like it was done by one person.

Regarding this judgment, the girl also agreed: "More than that, have you noticed that almost all the corpses present are dressed up by robbers, but you and I both know that ordinary robbers would never do something as cruel and bloody as Jingguan , So, could it be that someone took away all the corpses of one's side?"

After listening to the girl's analysis, Wu Erdan took a breath, and vaguely guessed the answer: "You mean these were all done by the Mongolian army?"

"Besides those people, I can't think of another possibility. Neither the Jianghu forces nor the local garrison would do such a thorough thing." Shangguancai glanced sternly at Dingning City not far away. There seems to be no problem with the direction of the Mongolian army stationed there.

Wu Erdan could only accept this guess. Looking at the corpses all over the ground, he couldn't help clenching his fists. At this moment, a scream came from the forest in the distance. Zhen, this sound obviously doesn't sound like the cry of a wild animal, let alone Ah Ren's voice. Could it be that there are other people here?

Several people looked at each other, and ran towards the direction of the cry, and soon arrived at the scene, but the scene that caught their eyes shocked them again.

I saw Ah Ren who had just slipped out just like a fallen star, holding a short-handled sledgehammer, chasing seven Mongolian soldiers on horseback, and not far from them, a man and a horse fell to the ground The Mongol, on the other hand, seemed to have been smashed through his chest, lying there exhaling more than inhaling, the cry just now should have been made by him.

Up to now, the few people still don't understand, no accident, this group of people is also one of the murderers, there is no need for Ren to greet at once, Wu Erdan has already taken out the long iron stick, shouted, rushed up, and smashed A Mongolian who rushed to the front without reacting was knocked off his horse.

The man fell off his horse, and before he could get up, he was trampled all the way by the friendly troops behind him, killing him on the spot. Wu Erdan succeeded in one blow, turned around and jumped up, dancing with the long stick in his hand, and the stick Shaking, the disheveled head smashed at another person, and that person also reacted at this time, drew out the scimitar from his waist, raised it above his head, barely blocked it.

Seeing that it was difficult to get away, the remaining Mongols yelled loudly, said something incomprehensible to everyone, drew out their scimitars, and killed them.

Shangguan Cai snorted coldly, and also took out the soft sword and stepped forward to meet the enemy. Wormwood followed suit and was about to fight, but was suddenly stopped by the master behind him. Facing the girl's puzzled gaze, Fu Daoqing made a With a silent gesture, he gently pointed to the woods on the right.

Ai Cao followed his finger to look over, but saw the shadow of the tree swaying, and there was nothing abnormal at all. Fu Daoqing didn't bother to explain, and just said softly: "It's okay, the Mongolian soldiers are not a threat, you just look forward to it."

In fact, as Fu Daoqing said, this group of Mongolian soldiers is naturally extremely brave against ordinary people, but against martial arts figures like Wu Erdan, there is almost no chance of winning when they do not have an absolute overwhelming advantage in numbers.

It was just a face-to-face meeting, and four people fell under the horse, and then another round of confrontation declared a complete defeat. Shangguan Cai kicked the last Mongolian soldier off the horse, but did not solve it. He stepped on the opponent's chest and said sharply, "Tell me, did you kill those people? Where are your troops?"

Facing the girl's questioning, the only remaining Mongolian soldier looked ferocious and spoke hurriedly. However, unfortunately, no one among them understood the Mongolian language, and they looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, bursts of heroic laughter suddenly came from the forest: "Hahaha, I never expected to meet such an interesting guy in a small hunt, Han people, don't need to work hard, this guy has nothing. Know."

As soon as the words finished, a silver light flew over, Shangguan Cai was startled, and hurriedly drew back, when she stopped to look again, the Mongol had already separated from his head, and he was too dead to die.

"Who! Since you're here, why bother to be sneaky!" Fu Daoqing, who had already sensed the presence of the other party, yelled violently and shook his hands. The cloud bed behind him suddenly opened, and a huge black shadow suddenly spread out, like a big bird , suddenly flew into the forest, and then, accompanied by a light sigh, the people in the forest suddenly swelled up, jumped up from the forest, avoided the shadow, and landed in front of everyone.

Until this moment, several people could see his appearance clearly. This is a middle-aged lama, wearing a purple monk's skirt, a waistcoat on his upper body, and a wide cassock on his outside.

"You are their leader?" Wu Erdan frowned slightly, looking at the lama who suddenly appeared, unable to tell the depth of the other party, he couldn't help but took a half step back vigilantly.

The lama didn't care about the people who were staring at him at all, he bowed contentedly, and said in a loud voice: "The poor monk Mongolian guru Kurodada, several of you are extraordinary, why don't you submit to my family's Khan, and work together for great cause, glory and wealth Isn’t it beautiful to have it at your fingertips?”

As soon as the words fell, Kuroda Tuo felt the strong wind howling above his head, but Ah Ren couldn't help but jump up high and smashed it down with a hammer: "You mean hunting? Interesting, I'm here to taste how you taste like a tartar!" !"
