Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

After eating some snacks hastily, Zhao Chuanxin looked back at the broken walls of the ruined temple and swung the black cutter horizontally.

boom……

A section of the crispy wall that had been blown by the wind fell down, rustling with dust, and Zhao Chuanxin's arms were numb from the shock.

He looked at the black cutter and found that the ax blade was chipped and crooked, unable to withstand such a powerful blow.

Bayar's forehead grinned with joy.

Zhao Chuanxin was dejected. This thing only looked bluffing, but was actually not durable.

I really wanted to throw it away, but I felt it was a pity, so I thought about putting it in a secret place and waiting for better steel before I worry about it.

At this time, Xu Hongyan's figure had disappeared from sight.

Zhao Chuanxin patted the remaining snack residue in his palm and got on his horse.

The two continued on their way.

……

Xu Hongyan ran forward, occasionally looking back in panic. Seeing that Master Zhao did not catch up, he felt relieved but also a little disappointed.

He thought to himself that if he had Master Zhao's ability, he would not be reduced to this situation.

He hasn't been out much, and he doesn't remember the roads.

He walked to a house, knocked on the door, and said, "Sorry to bother you, I want to know how to get to Xujiayingzi from here?"

The old man scratched his head: "Son, are you lost? Xujiayingzi? Which Xujiayingzi?"

This camp, that camp, there are too many.

Xu Hongyan saw that this family was not rich and the old man looked kind and did not look like a bad person, so he told the truth: "I was kidnapped by bandits and escaped on the way. I was so panicked that I didn't know where I was."

The old man shook his head and sighed: "Poor baby, how old are you? You go east along this road, go to Yiju first, find the local patrol station, they will help you find your way home."

Thank you very much Xu Hongyan.

The old man gave him another piece of dry food and let him drink a bowl of water, but he didn't stay.

I guess the old man was also afraid of bandits.

Xu Hongyan saw the farmers working in the fields beside the road, the ears of foxtail grass that had turned yellow and swayed in the wind, and a curious and wary black dog looking over the side of the field... He thought to himself, what if I am a beggar, and if I beg along this road, I won't get any delicious food, but I can still eat half a steamed bun and a bowl of water, so I won't starve to death.

Needless to say, I felt a sense of freedom immediately.

This child encountered a sudden hardship, and his brain circuit became very strange.

He thought to himself: Lack of money may be the least worth mentioning shortcoming of the poor. My family has a small amount of assets, so I can feel such a desire for freedom.

When the sky was dim, Xu Hongyan suddenly saw dust flying in the north.

When they got closer, Xu Hongyan first noticed that the horses under their crotches were all horses that had been cut and nosed using ancient methods.

Western Liaoning is close to the grassland, and even a middle-class young man like Xu Hongyan knows some things about the grassland.

Let’s not mention the cutting position for the moment, let’s just talk about the nose opening.

The people on the grassland grew up on the back of ponies, and their riding skills are innate and they are used to fighting. However, many people did not notice that their horses had to have their noses cut. In fact, it was an operation on the horse's nose to make it breathe better. In order to make it smoother, the Mongolian horses, which are already good at running long distances, can run even more.

When Genghis Khan went west to conquer Khwarezm, the people of Khwarezm thought it would take them a year to arrive. But under the leadership of Zhebe, there were six horses per man, and each horse had to have its nose cut off. It would arrive in six months, which can be called a blitzkrieg.

In the Battle of Sanfeng Mountain, Torre led the cavalry to harass the Jin army. For three days and nights without stopping, the Jin army was trapped and exhausted, and was ultimately defeated.

It’s just that when I read history, everyone thought that the Mongols were capable of fighting at that time, but they ignored many equipment problems.

Xu Hongyan was watching intently when he suddenly remembered something.

On horseback, there were several people wearing patrol uniforms!

He suddenly came to his senses, jumped to his feet, raised and swayed his arms: "Help me, help me..."

The man at the head had a large face, high cheekbones, and wore a wide-brimmed hat. He first waved his hand to slow down the people behind him, then he also tightened the reins and slowly stopped in front of Xu Hongyan.

Xu Hongyan looked at it and found that the leading patrol officer should be in his 30s, with high cheekbones, high brow bones, and two eyebrows that looked like broad-rimmed sickles, which formed a complete circle around his eye sockets.

It is difficult to distinguish between loyalty and treachery with such a face.

But Xu Hongyan said in her heart: Since he is a patrol officer, he must help the people after all, and he cannot behave as viciously as the bandits.

So he hurriedly bowed and said: "Sir, sir, I am from Xujiayingzi. I was kidnapped by bandits and escaped on the way. Can you help me, sir? Send me home. I will make my family treat you well." …”

The visitor raised his eyebrows and looked back.

Xu Hongyan noticed that the face of the knight behind him was full of amusement.

He suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Babu Zabu Tingcheng, the son of Xujiayingzi, could it be said that he was the one tied up by Lao Di?"

Someone asked playfully from behind.

Xu Hongyan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and his eyes glanced left and right, trying to find a way to escape.

Ting Cheng is the director of the Patrol Bureau.

As the chief of the patrol bureau, he actually knew the bandit's whereabouts clearly, or because his family reported it to the police, these people followed him.

Either these patrol policemen are colluding with the bandits.

But no matter how Xu Hongyan looked at it, it didn't look like the former.

Babuzabu turned around, leaned forward, and looked at Xu Hongyan: "How did you escape?"

Xu Hongyan clearly saw a hint of evil in Babu Zabu's eyes.

He rolled his eyes: "I ran away while they were napping."

Babuzabu chuckled gloomily: "Very good, you are very smart. Take this little kid with you and let's go."

Seeing that there were no empty horses, Xu Hongyan hurriedly said: "No need to bother you adults, we can just walk."

Babuzabu suppressed his smile, squinted his eyes and said, "Who has time to walk slowly with you? Get on the horse quickly."

Xu Hongyan not only did not step forward, but retreated, tripping over a awning of windmill grass.

At the signal from Babuzabu's eyes, a strong man from the prairie dismounted, stepped forward quickly, and grabbed Xu Hongyan's collar. The skinny Xu Hongyan was unable to resist at all.

The man raised his hand and slapped him.

"Snapped!"

Xu Hongyan's eyes were filled with stars, he shook his head before he came to his senses, and said with a cry: "Don't hit me, don't hit me, I'll just get on the horse..."

"You little bastard is dishonest!"

The man said fiercely.

Babuzabu drew his whip from his waist and made an explosive sound in the air.

Xu Hongyan shivered in fright.

Babuzabu asked with a smile: "Tell me, how did you escape?"

Xu Hongyan was frightened and cried mournfully: "It's Master Zhao. Master Zhao, the Sword Master, took advantage of the enemy and killed me together. Master Zhao also wanted to exchange me for ransom. I escaped when he was not prepared..."

He still didn't tell the truth, but it wasn't completely false, at least that's what Zhao Chuanxin teased him.

Babu Zabu sneered: "Hmph, I didn't expect that there would be people in western Liaoning who would dare to stroke my Babu Zabu's beard. How brave!"

As mentioned before, Lao Dihe is no ordinary bandit.
