Chapter No.17

"The wind is coming, the rain is coming, and the monk is carrying the drum.

Where to hide, hide in the temple, hide a child in one hide.

Erlang Erlang, you look after the house, there is a big watermelon on the pot.

......"

"Stop singing!" Fang Luo slapped the boy on the head, and the boy stopped smiling.

"Boss, it looks like it's going to rain again." The person walking behind said.

Fang Luo looked up at the sky with a sullen face. There was a scar across his face from right to left, which made him look very scary no matter what expression he made.

"It's unlucky." Fang Luo whispered, then turned his head and yelled at the back, "Hurry up! It's best to get to Moon City before it rains!"

The boy who was riding with him whistled and rushed forward first.

Fang Luo shook his head.

This kid is betting on darts for the first time, and everything he does is new.

Fang Luo has worked in the Weimeng Escort for nearly 15 years. His son can earn money when he grows up, and his daughter is also married. In addition, his wife always feels that doing this business is a bit dangerous. After persuading him many times, he decided to quit. meaning.If there is no accident, this is Fang Luo's last trip to escort the darts.

This trip started from Mucheng in the south and went northwest all the way to Gaoling.The employers were in a hurry, so they set out every day as soon as the sun was shining.

This road is not too dangerous, the trouble is that this season, there is a lot of rain in this area, and this time it seems to be a little more than in previous years.

After several days of rain, the ground was muddy.The rain has not yet penetrated, and the air is stuffy and humid, which makes people feel uncomfortable to death.

At this time just after the fifth watch, 10 people pressed three carriages and set off from the small village where they stayed overnight yesterday, and climbed along the winding mountain road.

"Boss, look at the sky and it's raining heavily."

"It will take a whole day to walk the winding mountain road, why don't we turn around and hide in the village for a day? Wetting the goods in the box will not be good."

Someone from behind shouted a proposal.

"Boss, why don't you go around the small path in the mountains?" The old man who had walked this path a few times gave them a blank look, and approached Fang Luo on his horse and said, "This generation is quite peaceful, and no one robs..."

Fang Luo hesitated for a moment.

It takes nearly half of the time to walk on the path.

Mochizuki City over the mountain is a relatively large town nearby.His original idea was to take advantage of the rain to rest, and it would be best to climb over the mountain.Unexpectedly, when it was dark yesterday, it was clear that the sky would not rain, but when I woke up this morning, it was dark and heavy.The village where we stayed last night was very small, and a group of people crowded into a small house, and the carriage would be parked in a straw shed, which was neither safe nor comfortable.The most important thing is that if you go back to the village at this time, no one can guarantee what the weather will be like tomorrow.

"Juneday, child's face, change as you say, change as you say..."

The boy in front ran too fast, had already turned a bend in the mountain, turned around and came back, muttering songs again.

"..." Fang Luo thought for a while, and finally nodded, "Let's take the path!" Then he yelled, "Xiao Wu, come back! Don't run too fast!"

"Hey!" The boy agreed with a smile, reined in the rein and spun around in place to wait for them.

To go around the path in the mountains and forests, the place is not spacious enough for two horses to walk side by side.Fang Luo walked in the front, followed by a young man named Xiao Wu, followed by three carriages, followed by several experienced old people.

It's really safer around here.Fang Luo ran several times and walked along the path several times, but nothing happened to him.

After walking for more than an hour, the sky didn't seem to light up at all. On the contrary, it finally couldn't bear the dark rain clouds, and the bean-sized raindrops began to fall.Blocked by the thick leaves, the clothes still got wet after a while.But in the end it wasn't pouring rain, it was much better than the previous few days.

Fang Luo speeded up again. He remembered that this road was more than halfway there. There should be a wild temple where he can take shelter from the rain for the time being.Sure enough, after walking for another hour, the temple with the red paint on the wall almost peeling off appeared in the field of vision.

"Come in, come in!" Several people unloaded their goods and moved them into the temple, but the carriage couldn't get in, so they could only be drenched outside.A group of people took off their clothes and squeezed the water, as if they had taken a bath.

Fang Luo stood at the gate of the temple, waiting for the rain to lighten anytime before moving forward.Arriving at this wild temple, it means that there should be only a half of the road left.

The road ahead was uphill. Fang Luo stood there watching the rain, and suddenly felt that the color of the rainwater washing over was a bit wrong.

More and more rainwater merged into small streams, spread over the potholes and muddy dirt road, with a dark red color.

Fang Luo frowned, squatted down, dipped his hand in some water, and brought it up to his nose to smell it. It smelled earthy and bloody.

"Look here, I'll take a look ahead." Fang Luo yelled at the people in the temple, and walked out.The young boy Xiao Wu was very curious, so he followed him out of the temple, and asked curiously, "What's in front?"

"I don't know." Fang Luo looked serious and patted him back, "Don't follow me, go in!"

"Don't be like this, Brother Fang!" Xiao Wu leaned forward, "If there is any danger, maybe I can help you!"

Fang Luo glanced at him, and thought that this was true, although this kid was young, he was good at martial arts, otherwise he wouldn't be able to enter the Mighty Escort.He acquiesced when he thought about it.

The uphill road turned a corner in a short while, followed by another sharp bend.Turning around again, Fang Luo saw it.

The young man beside him took a breath of cold air, but said nothing.

On the road ahead, there were more than 20 corpses densely packed.

Lying horizontally and vertically, blood flowed like a river.

If it hadn't been raining, they might have smelled the smell of blood a few miles earlier.

Fang Luo stood there without moving, and the boy didn't dare to move either.His face was a little pale, but there was no expression of fear.Fang Luo glanced at him and nodded inwardly.

If you want to do this line of work, you must not be too timid.

Fang Luo looked around carefully and found that there was no one else around, so he walked over slowly.

He turned the nearest body over.The man had been stabbed six or seven times, and he was already dead at first glance.

"Look, is there anyone alive..." Fang Luo turned to the next person and said to the boy.

The young man had a pale face, but he still obeyed his orders and checked the past one by one.

Fang Luo looked at a few more corpses, and they were all dead, but suddenly he heard the young man groaning, and hurriedly looked towards him.

"This person seems to be alive...!" the boy shouted at Fang Luo.

This middle-aged man was about forty years old, he had been stabbed several times, and he was still holding his breath. He seemed to hear the boy's voice, and his lips moved like a fish out of water.

"What?" Fang Luo leaned down and put his ear to his mouth.

"Devil... Demon Cult..."

The man said three words, moved his fingers, and pointed to his waist. Fang Luo reached out and touched a brass waist plate.

He took off the waist card and held it in his hand, only to hear the young man scream again, and looking over, the man was already dead.

Fang Luo frowned, looking back and forth at the waist card in his hand.There was only one character engraved on the waist card, Xiaozhuan script, which he didn't know because he hadn't studied for a few years.But I always feel that this look looks familiar.

Fang Luo clutched his waist card, tapped his head, and suddenly remembered!

"...Boss? What's the matter?" The young man stood up and asked quickly when he saw Fang Luo trembling all over.

"I remembered..." Fang Luo whispered, as if talking to himself, "This should be the word Wu, the Jiangnan Wu family."

Thinking this way, he looked at the waists of the other people, and sure enough, everyone had waist tags pinned to their waists.

Fang Luo was in a state of confusion. Could it be that these members of the Wu family were all killed by the Demon Cult?

Although the government never cared about martial arts affairs, people died for no reason and blocked the mountain road ahead, and the carriage could not move forward without clearing it.

After thinking about it for a while, he put the bronze medal in his hand into the young man's hand, and said, "Little Wu, your horse runs fast. Hurry up! Go to Wangyue City ahead and report to the officials!" After a pause, he said, "Definitely Be careful! If something happens, don’t worry about anything else, just run away!”

So Xiao Wu agreed.

This time, he didn't care whether it was raining or not, and he ran along the path to Wangyue City by himself.

There was no one to be seen on the rainy day road, he hurried forward, he saw that he was about to turn a corner and reach the south gate of Moon City, when a horse suddenly sprang out from the slanting path and was about to run into it.The man reined in the reins fiercely, and the tall maroon horse neighed for a while, raised its hooves, and stopped its momentum.Xiao Wu's horse was frightened, and ran towards the nearby woods in a panic.He tried to keep his balance on the horse, but at this moment he couldn't take care of himself, he always felt that something was snatching in his hand, so he quickly let go of the thing in his hand and grabbed the rein with all his might.

When he was in a crisis, he felt that someone pulled him by the collar of his clothes and dragged him off the horse.

The horse, which was out of control, rushed into the depths of the woods like crazy. Xiao Wu was put on the ground by the collar, and turned his head quickly, only to see that the man in black who saved him was a man in black.

"Thank you, thank you..." Xiao Wu said hurriedly, still in shock.The man ignored him, turned around and asked, "Are you all right?"

Only then did Xiao Wu see two horses and one person behind him.

That person was the one he almost bumped into. Xiao Wu didn't look carefully just now, but now he glanced at him and couldn't help but secretly click his tongue, what a beautiful man!

Bright eyes and white teeth, face as white as jade, black as ink.

The man was wearing a blue smock, and when he heard the question, he smiled and shook his head.

He walked over a few steps, smiled at Xiao Wu, "Sorry, I ran too fast."

"No way..." Xiao Wu hurriedly said, "My fault, my fault..." When he said this, he suddenly slapped his head, "Oops! Did I just throw away the sign in my hand!"

"The sign?" The man in blue looked around, his eyes were sharp, he saw the bronze medal on the ground not far away, he swept it under the tree, and reached out to pick it up.

However, before he picked it up in his hand, he let out a slight snort.

"Little brother." He smiled, and handed the sign in his hand to Xiao Wu, "Where did it come from?"

"You know this brand?" Xiao Wu was a little puzzled.

"I know." The other party nodded, and Xiao Wu immediately asked anxiously, "Then you also know the person with this brand?"

Su Yu smiled, "Not necessarily."

"So it's possible?" Xiao Wu chased after him, and then said, "Why don't you go and have a look! On the path in the mountain ahead, they're all dead!"
