Legend of Xianghuang

For the next half day, the road was very peaceful.

The convoy bears the logo of the Wuyang Escort Bureau, which should have deterred many bandits hiding around and watching.

Walking to the top of a slightly flat slope, Wu Yichen raised his hand, and everyone stopped in an orderly manner.

"Take a break for a moment."

Although it was a rest, no one relaxed their vigilance.

In the entire escort route, the Heifeng Mountain is the most dangerous section. Wu Yichen's father, who is also the chief escort of Wuyang Escort Bureau, hesitated for several days when faced with this business that strangely required the escort route, and finally Still nodded.

Even Wu Yichen didn't know who they were escorting.He only knew that his father had sent the most experienced bodyguards to participate in the escort, and even specially invited Chu Tianqing to help.

The bodyguards were divided into groups of vigilance and rest, and quickly ate some dry food and jerky to replenish their physical strength, and at the same time relax their tense spirit along the way.

Chu Tianqing walked to a big rock and jumped up, holding a small wine jar and drinking while looking to the north.

Wu Yichen was busy with the escort car, leaving Chu Tianqing behind, and immediately became much quieter.

Xiang Huang also didn't speak, and kept a close distance from the convoy, accidentally seeing Chu Tianqing's profile.

Just this one glance, the fleeting familiar look, kept Xianghuang from looking away.

After a while, Chu Tianqing turned his head, and waved to Xianghuang with a good temper: "Xianghuang might as well come here, so I can talk."

Being caught by Chu Tianqing, Xiang Huang was not nervous, just nodded and walked over.

Chu Tianqing touched his face, and asked amusedly, "What's on your face?"

"No." Xiang Huang shook his head, and carefully looked at Chu Tianqing's eyes that had long since disappeared, "I have seen your eyes just now."

Chu Tianqing didn't expect Xianghuang to look at him without blinking, but because of just one look, he couldn't help laughing: "A look? In fact, this look is not uncommon, and it is normal to see it."

"Then, are you sad?" Xianghuang asked directly.

It was so direct that people were caught off guard, Chu Tianqing raised his head and took a sip of wine: "I can't say I'm sad now, probably."

"Oh, so you were sad before?" Now that he asked, Xianghuang simply asked to the end.

Chu Tianqing felt helpless now, and turned to look at Xianghuang: "Little Taoist priest, why are you asking this?"

"I just want to know." Xianghuang replied solemnly and sincerely.

When she first asked the question, she was hesitant, but since she has already opened her mouth, let's ask the end.

"But..." Chu Tianqing put the wine jar aside, "Tell you, what good will it do me?"

Xiang Huang tilted his head slightly, frowning as if in distress.

Seeing this, Chu Tianqing raised the wine jar with a smile and took another sip.Looking at Xianghuang's appearance, he believed that she really just wanted to know the answer, and had no other personal thoughts.

"Then, I'll help you keep the secret that you are a woman." Xiang Huang's smiling voice came from next to his ear, Chu Tianqing froze for a moment, and immediately concentrated his energy to let the wine that had branched into the trachea come out, barely escaping After the ending of coughing without image, I still feel uncomfortable.

Faced with Chu Tianqing's astonished and wary eyes after his quick reaction, Xianghuang was very calm: "Don't worry, they won't hear what we said."

What Xiang Huang was referring to was naturally Wu Yichen and his bodyguards.

Chu Tianqing looked at Xiang Huang with a serious expression.Xianghuang also generously let him see, so she won't feel guilty.

After a while, Chu Tianqing restrained his fierce aura: "You really can't be underestimated."

"Yes." Xiang Huang answered unceremoniously.Compared with before, it was only a short period of time alone, but it transformed her whole body.The most obvious is that point of genuine self-confidence.

With Wanwan around, she will still rely on Wanwan when encountering things she has never been in contact with.

But when she was alone, she could only rely on herself for everything, and then found that she was actually more powerful than she imagined.

Xianghuang couldn't deny that Wanwan's affirmation was of great help to her, but the time when these affirmations really came into play had to be during this solitary walk.

"How did you find out?" Chu Tianqing seemed to be completely relaxed, and returned to the initial state of a little idleness.She was raised by a man since she was a child, and she hired a strange doctor to make a simple disguise, and no one has ever seen through it.

Xianghuang didn't hide anything, and told the truth: "The aura of men and women is different." After a certain level of cultivation, even if the appearance is completely changed, the ascetic can easily distinguish people.

Speaking of this, Xianghuang glanced at the thoughtful Chu Tianqing, and added: "Ordinary people should not be able to see it."

This addition made Chu Tianqing feel good about Xiang Huang.

She is a delicate little girl, and, even if she doesn't say it, Xiang Huang will not really publicize it.

Looking at the meticulous dress and serious appearance, it overlaps with her... once again.

Thinking of her, Chu Tianqing couldn't help looking to the north again, with a look of sadness inevitably.

Xianghuang didn't bother her, and she didn't keep staring at Chu Tianqing again, she just followed and looked over there, and there were green hills everywhere.

Of course Chu Tianqing was not looking at these mountains.

"Hey, you two, what did you see here?" After Wu Yichen finished his work, he found that the two of them were looking at the scenery without saying a word, so he came up to ask.

Chu Tianqing turned his head and looked at Wu Yichen. From the corner of his eyes, he did notice a slight movement of the hands under the long sleeves of Xianghuang Taoist robe, and he understood it.

"Look, the terrain of Heifeng Mountain is complicated. Although the mountain range is not long, there are still many places where it is easy to ambush through the mountains and ridges, twisting and bending." Chu Tianqing shook his finger, his eyesight is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Wu Yichen is obviously not weak in skill, but he can keep up with Chu Tianqing, nodded: "So I have never understood why the person entrusting the dart insisted on making such a request, and why the old man took this weird dart."

Wu Yichen spoke vaguely, and looked at Xianghuang calmly.

However, Xianghuang didn't seem to be interested in what he said, but still looked at the mountains thousands of miles away, with a slightly sleepy expression.

Of course Chu Tianqing saw Wu Yichen's little move, and shook his head slightly at him, signaling that it's okay.

Wu Yichen obviously had a lot of trust in Chu Tianqing, since she said so, he also shrugged his shoulders and stopped being defensive.

However, with Wu Yichen's visit, the conversation between Chu Tianqing and Xiang Huang came to an end.

Not long after, the convoy continued on. After a period of rest, everyone was in high spirits.

Along the way, it was still calm and calm, which of course everyone was happy to see.

After a long journey in the afternoon, even the most self-disciplined person is somewhat tired.

"Wait for this section of the road, there should be a place with relatively open terrain." Wu Yichen said a few words to an old bodyguard, and rode over to talk to Chu Tianqing.

At this moment, they were stopping in front of a narrow road with cliffs on both sides. The stone wall was almost vertically hanging down. The narrow road was only enough for the bullock cart to barely pass through, and at most three people could go side by side.

Easily ambushed terrain.

"Let's go." Chu Tianqing nodded, took a look at this place known as "a line of sky", and went ahead.

Xiang Huang followed closely behind, her expression was the same as that of Chu Tianqing.

Naturally, Wu Yichen was in charge of the dart team, and according to his arrangement, people were assigned forward and backward, and there were three people standing on the two ox carts with weapons on guard.

Encountering this kind of terrain, everyone was alert and calm, and the convoy moved forward slowly, so quietly that there was only the sound of wheels colliding with rocks and soil.

One person, two people, one car, two cars...

Gradually, the convoy passed the first-line sky safely, unexpectedly smoothly.

The spirit of high alert of the anxious people finally let go, and let out a long sigh.

"Is it true that we are so scared by the name of our bodyguard agency that we dare not come?" A young bodyguard said to his companion excitedly, in exchange for a warning look from his older partner.

However, even though they knew that they had to be vigilant at all times before delivering the darts, everyone relaxed somewhat.

There is an open land in front of you, and Wu Yichen doesn't even need to arrange it. The experienced bodyguards also know where they will camp tonight, and their eyes wander there intentionally or unintentionally.

They were all a little tired after walking all day and the tension before.

Especially after he breathed a sigh of relief, all this fatigue was released at once.

Wu Yichen also knew what his bodyguards were thinking, so he simply said loudly: "Hurry up, as soon as we get there."

The young bodyguards all followed him with a smile and speeded up.

"Wait!" Chu Tianqing, who was standing at the exit after leaving the first line of sky, kept frowning and said nothing, and hurriedly wanted to stop it.

Then before the words were finished, the few people walking in the front suddenly let out an exclamation, their feet sank, and they fell into the trap buried under their feet with almost no flaws without any reaction time.

There was a sudden change, and the convoy behind hurriedly stopped. Who would have thought that the trap was not just there, and everyone's feet began to sink, from far to near.

"Everyone retreat to the back and sides, be on guard!" Wu Yichen shouted luckily, and the panicked people immediately took action to do so.

And Chu Tianqing also jumped up, rising and falling like a black shadow to the front, picked up the two people who sank first and threw them towards the distance, then turned around and grabbed the other two.

Seeing that Chu Tianqing himself pressed down on the trap due to the force of the throw, and under the trap was densely packed with sharp knives, the people nearby couldn't help feeling nervous.

Chu Tianqing's face was calm, and with a wave of abundant internal energy, he stepped lightly on a blade with his toes, and then used his strength to rise into the air again, and brought the two of them down to a safe place.

This is just the beginning.

The front traps were buried with sharp blades, but the rear traps were different.

These traps should be specially set serial traps. The bunkers in front of them are relatively thick, and there is nothing wrong with people stepping on them. As the bunkers become thinner and thinner, the traps will collapse when they are finally placed.

This kind of collapse will drive the previous bunkers, making these traps work one after another.

No matter how quick Chu Tianqing and Wu Yichen reacted, two or three people unfortunately fell into the trap.

After finally waiting for everyone to stop on the ground that was confirmed to be safe, there were terrified screams from the traps that some people fell into.

This is definitely not caused by being stabbed by a knife blade.

Everyone was terrified listening to the wailing in the trap one after another, holding their weapons and looking around, their faces were full of nervousness and intolerance.

Those who wailed there were all brothers who lived and died together.

But their task is to protect the safety of the entrusted things, and they cannot act without authorization.

"I'll go." Chu Tianqing said simply, stopping Wu Yichen from going to check.

She walked to the side of the trap and looked inside, her face was also a little ugly.

"Tianqing, are you in a trap?" Wu Yichen couldn't help asking a step forward as the call signs became softer.

"Don't come here! Light the fire!" Even Chu Tianqing couldn't help but express nervousness in his words, speaking in a hurry and fast, and at the same time backed away two steps.

No matter how puzzled he was, Wu Yichen would not be vague at this time, and directly took out the torch and torch from the package and lit it.

During the time of this movement, everyone could see the reason why Chu Tianqing reacted like this.

Something, crawled out of the trap.
