Chapter 66

From Violet Cloud City to the capital's Sein, they would have to walk for at least a week at a normal speed.
On the way, they would have to pass through the vast flatlands, mountains, and large trees.
In many remote and desolate places, there were often groups of bandits that would rob others of their bad people and fugitives.
A small caravan would often form a large team and hire hired soldiers to ensure their safety..Therefore, the long-distance carriages at Violet Cloud City's Inn station would only set off after a period of time when there were suitable teams.
After all, safety was the most important.As the convoy gradually moved away from Violet Cloud City, the two youths who were in the same carriage as the Dongfang Yun Sword quickly returned to normal.
From there, the older one finally opened his mouth and asked, "Are you the Dongfang family's Dongfang Yun Sword?
I remember that you rarely came to the Martial Hall.
I am the Ming family's Ming Shi Zhe."...""Oh, hello," said Dongfang Yunjian.To be able to ride in the same carriage was also a form of fate, not to mention that the three of them had to stay in the same carriage for a week.
The Yun matriarch was also one of the twelve great families, and the status of the Yun family in Violet Cloud City was not inferior to the Dongfang Yunjian family.One of them was a blond boy named Lin Siyuan, and he was the son of Lord Lin Leifen's family.
He had just been promoted to a high-level Martial Student, while Ming Shizhe was a high-level Martial Student.
Their family had spent a great deal of money on them, and they wanted to send the two of them to the Martial Hall in the capital city.Ming Shizhe was older than Dongfang Yunjian by a year, while Linsiyuan was still a little Dongfang Yunjian for a few months.
With similar experiences, the three of them quickly became familiar with each other.The convoy headed south of the East Changjiang.
The next day, they left the vast flat ground and entered a large area of trees and mountains.The mountain range was the most dangerous part of this journey.
The convoy needed at least three days to enter the inner part of the Ice Waves Kingdom.
The roads here were very rare, and bandits often appeared.After entering the mountain range, there was a small dispute between the caravans.
The two caravans had a different opinion on which path they would take.
One merchant team felt that they should take the main road to ensure their safety, but the extra one was determined to keep the main road more dangerous.
It would be better to take the small path and save more time..Thankfully, under the coordination of the horse carriages, the troop continued to walk along the main road.
They did not encounter any trouble along the way.However, on the afternoon of the fourth day when the convoy left Violet Cloud City, trouble finally came.At this moment, the convoy was definitely located in the inner area of the mountain.
The mountain path that no one was fixing and maintaining became increasingly difficult.
The surroundings were filled with rolling mountains and large trees, and there was simply no sign of a family.After a long journey, the hired soldiers who were in charge of taking care of the convoy felt a little tired.
The absence of danger for the past few days had allowed them to relax and be on their guard.
They rode the horses and followed the convoy lazily, cursing the scorching sun that made them break out in sweat.It was at that moment that a "boom" could be heard.
The carriage in front of them fell directly into a trap halfway up the street.
The two horses pulling the carriages released a painful whinny in the crater.
The back half of the carriage tilted to one side and the goods inside were immediately scattered all over the ground..It was at this moment that a "boom" could be heard.
The carriage in front of them fell straight into a trap halfway up the road.
The two horses pulling the carriages emitted a painful screech in the crater.
The back half of the carriage tilted to one side and the goods were immediately scattered all over the ground!The nearby hired soldiers were shocked.
They had just seen that they were still fine, so why would a hole suddenly appear on the ground?
The only interpretation was that someone had already dug a pit here, waiting for them to come!"We have enemies..."Before the word "human" came out, a sharp arrow suddenly shot out of the woods dozens of meters away.
Just as the hired man was about to call the police, the hired man immediately fell.This arrow seemed to be a signal.
Afterwards, it fired with a swish, and dozens of arrows shot out from the dense forest on both sides of the road, aiming straight at the hired soldiers on the back of the horses!However, the hired soldiers who were in charge of taking care of the convoy were not ordinary people.
They had traveled back and forth on this road many times, and they had encountered danger again and again.
While the hired soldier had warned them earlier, the veteran hired soldiers immediately descended from the back of the horse, which was most vulnerable to attacks, and quickly moved to the side of the carriage.
They used their horses to block the incoming arrows..Abruptly, the convoy stopped moving forward.
The passengers of the United Inn station carriages in the caravan immediately panicked, and some even emitted Emperor Zhang's shrill screams.
Many of them were still out for the first time.
They had never encountered a situation where bandits attacked.."Everyone, don't want Zhanghuang!
Stay in the carriage and don't come out!" The leader of the convoy was still relatively calm.
He quickly shouted, "We have hired soldiers and warriors!
Don't be afraid!"It was a pity that all the hired soldiers had been held back by the arrows of the ambusher.
It wasn't bad for them to be able to protect themselves.
Only a few of the hired soldiers were holding their arrows as they waved their swords.
They charged out to eliminate the archers hiding in the forest.
However, a bandit immediately welcomed them, and a fierce battle broke out between the two parties..In the carriage, in the only luxury carriage of the rest station, Dongfang Yunjian suddenly stood up and drew his sword from his luggage.Sitting next to him, Lin Siyuan immediately jumped in fright, "Big brother Dongfang Fangyunjian, what are you doing?""What are we doing?
Of course we're going out to kill those bandits!" Dongfang Fangyunjianqi said, "Are we just going to sit here and wait?"Linsiyuan blushed as he explained, "But they told us to stay in the carriage.
Aren't there hired soldiers outside?"Dongfang Fangyunjian was immediately speechless.
He had underestimated these flowers that had grown up in the greenhouses.
He really didn't know how they had passed the Martial Hall examination.
As a brave warrior, they didn't even have the courage to do so."There are many enemies, and I don't think the hirelings will be able to stop them.
As brave warriors, there is no reason for us to just sit back and do nothing.
Moreover, they have killed a group of hired soldiers.
Do you think those bandits will let us go?" Dongfang Yunjian said with a serious tone.
"A good man will silence himself, let alone a damned bandit!"."There are many enemies, so I don't think the hired soldiers will be able to stop us.
As brave warriors, there is no reason for us to just sit back and do nothing.
Moreover, they killed all the hired soldiers.
Do you think those bandits will let us go?" Dongfang Yunjian gravely said: "Good men will silence themselves, let alone those damned bandits!"With that, he kicked the door of the car and jumped out.Dongfang Fangyunjian's words caused Lin Siyuan's face to flush red.
This young warrior, who had never encountered such a situation before, was indeed a little afraid.
Meanwhile, Ming Shizhe, who had been a little hesitant before, shuddered.
He pulled out his own weapon and followed Dongfang Fangyunjian out of the carriage..After jumping out of the carriage, Dongfang Yunjian looked back and forth and discovered that the mercenaries' momentum wasn't very good.
Although the bandits hadn't pressed down on them yet, the arrows shot out from the dense forest continuously.
There were already several hired soldiers, either killed or injured, while several brave warriors who rushed into the forest ahead were surrounded by more bandits..If this continued, it was only a matter of time before the hired soldiers would die!
Dongfang Yunjian's line of sight flashed, and a figure leapt into the forest on the side of the road.
Those archers had no doubt that they wanted to eliminate it first.Swish!
Swish!He had just entered the forest when two crossbow bolts shot out from the left and right.
They were extremely fast!"Break!"The Dongfang Yun Sword suddenly roared, and the thunderous roars of spring came from its tongue.
The two crossbow bolts that were about to hit its target seemed to hit an invisible barrier, and suddenly fell to the ground.And his steps didn't stop at all.
As he rushed, the heavy sword in his hands was slashed down.
A golden sword light shot out, and in an instant, it split open the grass more than 20 meters ahead.Grass and leaves flew everywhere, and the bandits and archers hiding there immediately appeared.
Their faces were filled with horror!His head and body had been separated, and the expression on his face made Dongfang Yunjian's whole body cold.Seeing this, another archer threw an arrow and ran away.
Dongfang Yunjian didn't chase after him.
Seeing that he had barely run far away, Dongfang Yunjian suddenly shouted and waved his arm.
The Flaming Fire Sword in his hand focused all of its energy on that bandit!After the bandit gave out a cry of hope and pain, he tightly fell into the shrubbery beside him.Dongfang Yunjian retrieved the Flaming Sword.
When he turned around, he suddenly saw Ming Shizhe being surrounded by three bandits.
His sword rushed left and right without any rules, a sword wielder!Anger flashed in Dongfang Yunjian's eyes.
He suddenly raised the heavy sword in his hand and swung it with all his strength.
A flaming slash that contained anger shot out!
One bandit lost his life, and the other saw his companion fall.
He was stunned for a moment, turned around, and charged forward with an axe.
Dongfang Yunjian didn't even turn his body around.
He swung the sword in the future, piercing through the bandits, and immediately fell to the ground..Ming Shizhe's heavy encirclement was lifted.
Seeing that the two bandits had already collapsed, he suddenly had the courage to leap forwards and raise his sword to attack another bandit.
The bandit saw that his companion had died, and his eyes were filled with anger.
He swung his sword at Ming Shizhe, and the blades collided with each other, emitting a clear and pleasant sound.Ming Shizhe's sword was immediately knocked away.Bandit howled and slashed at Ming Shizhe, who had missed his weapon.
Ming Shizhe was so scared that he turned around and ran.
Bandit chased after him and swung his broadsword straight at Ming Shizhe.
As soon as he saw the sword, he raised it and threw it at the back of the bandit bandit's heart.
Before the bandit bandit died, he turned his attention back to the Dongfang Cloud Sword.
His eyes revealed panic and unwillingness.Ming Shizhe immediately slumped to the ground in horror.
He looked at the sword with respect, respect, and fear.Two bandits suddenly appeared in the forest in front of Ming Shizhe.
They shouted and raised their swords and slashed down.
Just as the swords were about to point at Ming Shizhe, there was suddenly the sound of footsteps trampling on the treetops.
The Dongfang Yun sword didn't have time to speak, so it flew in front of Ming Shizhe.
It raised its swords and struck one bandit.
The other bandit raised his swords and attacked.
The Dongfang Yun swordsmen had already kicked the bandit's head.
The bandit didn't even have the time to snort before they chased after his companion..The bandits that came over with their backs were extremely fast.
They surrounded the Dongfang Yun Sword in different directions.
The two archers stopped and picked up the hunting bow in their hands.
A short and fat bandit picked up his battle axe and charged towards the Dongfang Yun Sword.At this location, the leader of the convoy and the mercenaries were repelling the bandits who were attacking and chasing after three bandits.
Seeing the situation, an archer shot an arrow at the robber who was holding an axe.
The sword in Dongfang Yunjian's hand had already split open the two other bandits' faces.The gang boss saw the seven corpses lying behind Dongfang Fangyunjian, and said with surprise and gratitude,"Fortunately, you guys helped me, otherwise I would have been in a terrible state today." The gang boss bowed towards the sword and expressed his gratitude.
The sword politely expressed its gratitude.Ming Shizhe had already stood up.
He also came over and said, "These were all killed by the Eastern Cloud Sword alone.
Without him, I would have died too."The gang boss's eyes immediately widened.
When he saw the silver star warrior on Dongfang Yunjian's face, he said with admiration, "You're so young.
You're a silver star warrior.
You really are a hero."He asked Dongfang Fangyunjian about the trip to the Seine Martial Hall, and the two of them chatted for a bit.
Dongfang Fangyunjian continued, "Have you caught any survivors?
Can I ask who sent them here?
Why did they hijack our convoy?
I suspect that someone was planning an ambush?"The gang leader said, "They're coming and coming, and I'm afraid the brothers and I won't be able to stop them.
Who knew they'd come and go so fast, leaving two corpses behind and leaving?" The gang leader paused.
"I thought they'd come at once, but you'd already killed them.""..."Dongfang Fangyunjian nodded and said, "This is a bit strange.
I'll ask your subordinates to clean up and bury the corpses.
I'm worried that they'll be ambushed here in advance, but I'm afraid that there will be many more dangers in the future.
Therefore, we have to leave this place as soon as possible and try to stay in the city before nightfall.""..."The gang boss listened to Dongfang Fangyunjian's reasonable explanation, and then looked at how he handled things neatly and efficiently.
He kept saying good things.
Without a second word, he ordered the mercenaries to clean up the battlefield.Ming Shizhe was still in shock.
Dongfang Fangyunjian asked him to get back into the car first.After half a day's worth of effort, the convoy began to move again.
Through this incident just now, the gang boss confirmed that Dongfang Yunjian was a saint, so he would definitely let Dongfang Yunjian walk side by side with him in front of the convoy.
Dongfang Yunjian was also afraid that there would be more accidents on the way, so he agreed to the gang boss's suggestion.Dongfang Fangyunjian had a premonition in his heart.
He felt that these bandits who ambushed him would definitely come again.
When he woke up, he carefully examined his surroundings until the carriage safely left the forest.
He relaxed.The city was getting closer and closer.
Thinking of the upcoming new life, Dongfang Yunjian's heart was filled with the yearning and eager anticipation of the people.
He trusted that in the next few years, he would definitely advance his martial arts to a new level and achieve the dream of his past life.A few years later, Dongfang Fangyunjian had unsurprisingly reached an unmatched level of martial arts.
When he returned to where he was, he had finally achieved his own fantasy.
