The main road from the foot of the mountain to Jiningzhou was winding.
A gorgeous carriage slowly came from the official road.
There were four strong horses in front of and behind the carriage, and the riders were all dressed in servants' clothes.
The spacious carriage was painted with exquisite patterns.
There were hundreds of birds embroidered on the sky-blue curtain with tassels hanging down.
The sound was pleasant.
The curtain curtain was low and the fragrance was everywhere.
It was unknown which lady was driving.
The carriage was driving in the mountains, and the side of the road was covered with dense woods.
Suddenly, an ear-piercing scream cut through the air, and more than ten strong horses rushed out from the woods on both sides and blocked the road.
The rider was wearing a tight suit and a black towel, and the steel knife in his hand was shining cold light, which was a maggot in people's skin.
At the head of the road, a big man shouted, "The hero of Yi Mengshan is opening a store here.
Leave the shopping money and let you off." The servants turned pale with fright.
This path had always been peaceful and they had never heard of bandits roaming around.
When they passed by the prefectural city, they did not ask for anyone to escort them.
However, something unexpected happened.
One of the servants rode his horse and shouted, "Blind robber!
How dare you stop the cart of an official.
Aren't you afraid of losing your life?" The leader laughed wildly and said, "I'm not afraid of losing my head.
Are you afraid?" He shouted again, "Brothers, kill all these lackeys." The gang of bandits urged their horses and brandished their blades, charging at the enemy.
The servants also drew their blades to face the enemy.
In terms of numbers and skills, none of them were a match for the bandits.
As soon as the bandits exchanged blows, they were all struck by the blades and fell off their horses.
The sounds of weapons intersecting, the bandits frantically crying out in despair, and the cries of women crying out continuously rang in the ears.
These bandits were truly ruthless in their attacks, and not long after, eight servants died one after another.
Their heads were also hacked off from the driver's head, and a bloody corpse fell to the shaft of the carriage.
Eight strong horses lost their master, and then disappeared into the wilderness.
The bandits ignored the scattering horses and rushed to the front of the carriage, stepping on the corpses.
One of them held out his knife to lift the curtain.
There were a second and third women in the carriage, who were shivering and frightened.
A young woman was nestled in the arms of a middle-aged woman, and another young woman was protecting her side.
Their faces were pale and frightened.
After taking a good look at the faces of the two young ladies, most of the bandits' spirits flew away.
One of them shouted, "What a beautiful lady!
I'll see her for the first time in my life.
F*ck her!
I've never done this business for nothing." The traitor's heart was itching and lusted for her.
He stared at the young lady who was nestled in the middle-aged lady's embrace and said, "I want this lady.
Those maidservants and brothers, take her to have fun." The thieves were overjoyed and the three girls were shocked.
The middle-aged woman hurriedly put the girl behind her and said in a trembling voice, "You can't be rude to Miss." The traitor's head glared at him and said angrily, "You old woman, you're so wordy!
Cut her off for me.
We're not interested in the old woman.
Pull her down and do not frighten my little baby." A thief took out his knife and jumped onto the carriage to pull the middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman's face was pale.
The two young girls cried loudly and hugged her, refusing to let go.
At this moment, someone in the distance shouted, "Bold thief, eat my arrow!" A pure black steed galloped over from the hillside.
On the horse was a majestic young man, with a longbow in his left hand and a sharp arrow in his right hand.
With a roar, the arrow broke through the air and went straight into the enemy's heart on the shaft.
The thief was killed on the spot, and his body fell in front of the carriage.
The group of bandits were greatly frightened.
They urged their horses to scatter and shouted loudly.
The bandit leader shouted angrily, "This little bastard doesn't want his life anymore!
He actually dares to spoil great grandpa's plans!
Do him and get revenge for fourth brother!" Several fierce bandits rushed out from the crowd, brandishing their horses and brandishing their blades.
They were always the ones who tried to seize it.
The person who arrived was Tianci.
He found his prey in the mountains and went back to the city while looking for a way.
Just as he was about to hit a gang of bandits who had committed murder and hurt him, he became enraged instantly.
He shot one of the bandits with his arrows and charged forth to rescue them on his horse.
Facing the ferocious gang of bandits, Tianci was fearless.
He bellowed angrily, "Quick, dismount your horses.
Get bound.
We'll spare your lives." The bandits were unwilling to give up.
They spurred their horses as fast as they could.
Tianci was even more furious.
He drew his bow and shot the arrow at the thief before him, aiming right at his throat.
His corpse lay on the ground, but his feet were still propped up on the horse.
He did not realize that his master had died.
The bandits didn't fear death and continued to charge forward.
Tianci's arrows didn't leave any trace, and another four bandits were shot down by him.
For the first time in Tianci's life, he killed people.
At the very beginning, he was indignant, so he didn't think much about it.
At this time, he killed several people in succession, which inevitably frightened the other bandits.
They were shocked by Tianci's archery, so they didn't dare to come forward.
The bandit head shouted, "What are you doing?
If we don't kill this guy, we won't survive." He took the lead and rushed to Tianci.
At this critical moment, Tianci no longer hesitated.
He drew his bow and shot an arrow at the bandit leader's throat.
His killing desire had been dashed, and the strength of this arrow was greatly reduced.
The bandit leader was very skillful.
His eyes were bright, and his body was fast.
He leaned forward, and the arrow brushed past his head.
When the arrow missed, Tianci became anxious.
He stretched out his hand and touched the quiver.
He was shocked and broke out in cold sweat.
The arrow had been used up!
The bandit leader was overjoyed.
He dashed forward and slashed right in the face.
Tianci brought a sword with him when he went out this time, but it was just an ornament, not convenient for him.
He cried out to himself as he was in danger.
He hurriedly led his horse to dodge the attack.
The bandit leader's saber missed, and his mount ran past him at high speed, flying more than 30,meters away.
Tianci pulled out his sword, and he calmed himself down when he saw that the sword was in his hand.
The leader of the thieves rode back with his horse.
The two horses hovered, fighting with one another.
Tianci was not afraid of his opponent's strength, but afraid that his sword would sink.
The sword in his hand was just an ornament, weighing less than two pounds.
How dare he take it head-on?
He was quite embarrassed, dodging left and right.
Another four fierce bandits came one after another.
The leader of the bandits shouted, "Brothers, let's fight side by side!" The bandits made their moves together.
The sword shadow all over the sky, attacking like tides.
Tianci was fighting one against five.
He was dwarfed in the left and right, with hundreds of flaws.
With a whizz, he slashed his shoulder, leaving a long wound on his left arm.
The cut was not deep, but bloody.
Half of his body was soaked in blood, which was very horrible.
Suddenly, there were two shrill cries coming from the direction of the carriage, followed by hurried hoofbeats.
There was a sweet voice, "Bastard, look at the sword!" A red shadow flew in the air, like a big hawk spreading its wings.
The sword light was like a waterfall, cutting through the air.
Without hearing the sound of metal colliding, the five robbers screamed at the same time, and the falling horse died.
The red shadow did not land, but continued to fly forward and landed steadily on the galloping horse.
What a wonderful body movement!
What a wonderful sword technique!
Tianci was grateful, but he was shocked.
With a long neigh, the knight pulled his horse back.
The knight turned out to be a young woman.
She was wrapped in a pure white handkerchief, her red face bouncing, eyebrows like mountains, and eyes like autumn water.
Although she had not applied makeup, her countenance was natural.
Tianci was stunned and thought to himself, "If I don't see her fight just now, I can't imagine that such a weak woman could be a master of swordsmanship.
She took the enemy's life as easy as winking from a pocket." A girl's face was delicate.
Being stared at by a strange man, the girl was a little shy.
She smiled, her voice as silvery as silver bells.
"Are the women in the carriage companions of the young master?
You're badly hurt.
Hurry up and bandage them up." Then, she turned her horse head, tapped on the saddle pedals lightly, and left.
Tianci was about to explain that he did not recognize the women in the carriage, so it was not convenient for him to speak to them.
He wanted to ask the woman in red to clean up the mess.
However, before he could speak, the girl had already left.
Only a chuckle lingered in his ears for a long time.
Tianci felt a sense of loss.
He thought to himself, "What's wrong with me today?
I forgot to say 'thank you' when I stare at this older girl.
I'm extremely disrespectful." He then thought, "Where is this woman from?
I wonder if we'll meet again in the future." Then, he started to blame himself secretly.
"Who is she to me?
So what if I see her?
Tianci Li, Tianci Li, don't let your imagination run wild and desecrate this good girl." He shook his head violently and suppressed his admiration for her.
He could not help mumbling to himself, "The vastness of the Hans doesn't allow you to think too much.
The boundlessity of the Jiang family doesn't allow you to think too much." After waking up from the obsession, Tianci looked at the corpses of the five bandits on the ground.
Each corpse had a narrow wound on its throat.
They were so swift that it was shocking.
Tianci gasped and thought, "This woman's martial arts are a hundred times better than mine.
Dad's words are not to be bullied.
There are many capable men in Jianghu, but I'm just a frog at the bottom of the well.
Night is arrogant and pathetic." Tianci finally realized that his martial arts were not at the bottom, but he was not discouraged.
Instead, he had made up his mind.
As long as he practiced hard, whatever the woman in red could do, he could do the same too.
Tianci stretched out his sword and pushed aside the thief head's mask.
He saw that it was a familiar face—it was one of the four men who diastolic up the entrance to the tea house yesterday.
Tianci thought to himself, "I guessed that those four thieves are a group of robbers.
They have bad ways." Tianci felt a little sympathy for them.
They had such remarkable skills.

If they had not joined the group to be a thief, they would not have ended up like this.
Then, he remembered the three women on the carriage.
He had to save them to the end.
He could not leave now.
At that moment, he led the horse over and said loudly, "Madams and ladies, the robbers have been eliminated.
You don't have to be afraid." The three women in the carriage didn't know that danger had passed.
They hugged and cried, shivering.
The middle-aged woman closed her eyes and kept reciting Amitabha.
Hearing the words of someone outside the carriage, the middle-aged woman carefully opened the curtain and peeped out through the gap.
When she saw Tianci, who was half-blooded, she was so scared that she put down the curtain again and stammered, "Is it the man who saved us?" Tianci said coldly, "I was saved instead of being saved, so let's not mention it.
Where do you want to go, Madame?
Do you need my help?" The middle-aged woman finally had the courage to lift the curtain and stuck her head out.
She said, "My young lady's surname is Wu and her family is in Hai Zhou.
She came to the capital city to visit her master.
She planned to change a boat in Ji Ning, but she didn't expect to encounter this accident halfway.
Several of her family members were killed.
Her reputation would have been ruined if the hero hadn't saved her in time." Her tone sounded like a servant woman.
In the car, there was a little girl with a round face.
Her face was calm and tears had not dried up.
The young lady's figure was slim, and her long white dress was in a white gauze, with a light green short jacket.
Her head was low, so one could not see her face clearly.
Tianci said, "It's a great pity that I haven't been able to rescue you in time.
I will try to bury your companion's body with someone else and move it back to my hometown in the future.
As for this carriage driver...
well, I'll do my best and fill it up." The master and servant three were very grateful.
Miss Wu still lowered her head and whispered, "Thank you for your kindness.
Your humble concubine does not dare to bother you." Tianci smiled and said, "It's not a big deal.
Are you going to Jining by yourself?
Although it's my first time to drive, I'm still stronger than you." Miss Wu said, "I'm sorry to have wronged a brave man, but my concubine is very uneasy." Tianci smiled and said, "It's not a big deal.
In fact, the fifth doctor of the Qin Dynasty was a driver.
It can be seen that a whipman is not inferior to others.
He can also be an official.
Today, I have been addicted to the privilege of being an official.
If I don't follow the rules, please don't laugh at me." The three girls couldn't help but smile.
Miss Wu smiled and said, "Your father, Kong Shang, is willing to be a whipping man.
We are both the direct descendants of Kongmen.
We follow the old man's footsteps.
What's wrong with that?" Confucius once said, "The more you get, the better.
Even a whipping man will do the same thing.
Miss Wu has been doing this all the time, which shows that she is not an ordinary girl.
At least she has read the Four Books skilfully." Tianci smiled and said, "I didn't expect that I could match the sages.
It's amazing!" He tied the ebony horse to the back of the carriage, jumped to the carriage driver's seat, and set off with a whip.
Tianci had never driven a carriage before, but he had seen a lot of it in daily life.
The horses were very well-trained, so he was able to control them with ease and skill.
Miss Wu said, "My humble concubine is extremely impolite.
I haven't asked the noble man's name yet." Tianci answered casually, "My name is Li Tianci.
I live here in Bianzhou City.
Today, I am out hunting and don't want to meet you." Miss Wu said, "The noble man's surname is Li.
Your honor, Mr.
Li.
Do you know Disposition Li?" Tianci smiled and said, "That's my father.
How can I not know him?
Miss is far away in Hai Province.
Have you heard my father's name before?" Miss Wu let out a cry of surprise and said,"Ah, so Lord Li is your Lordship!
Your Lordship's name has spread throughout the world.
Who doesn't know about the Seven North North North and Six-Three Prefectures, not to mention the sea province that is right in front of them?" Tianci was greatly surprised.
How could his father, a mere magistrate of a prefecture, be so famous?
He asked, "Are you complimenting me, Miss?" Miss Wu replied, "Your lowly concubine is speaking the truth.
Your Lordship is a man of integrity.
He has come to the court to accuse the officials repeatedly.
He doesn't hide from the axe and cauldrons, and doesn't care about life, death, or shame.
This matter is known to the world and known by the imperial family in the sea.
Young master, you are too modest." Tianci said calmly, "As a courtier, I should be responsible for the country and not have selfish thoughts.
This is a matter of my own accord, so it's nothing." But Tianci was very happy in his heart and thought, "The right and wrong are in accordance with the human heart.
Dad has impeached all the traitors.
Although I haven't succeeded, the people in the world have seen it clearly." Miss Wu was grateful that Tianci had saved her.
When she heard that he was the son of famous Mr.
Li, she felt closed to him.
She tried hard to repress her shyness and peeked out through the curtain.
She couldn't help but gasp.
What she saw wasn't the handsome young man she had imagined, but a wretched half-naked scene.
She asked with concern, "Is the young man hurt?
Is he serious?
Let me take a look." After getting out of the carriage, she grabbed his injured arm and tore off his sleeves, regardless of whether he agreed or not.
The mouth of the knife was nearly a foot long.
Although no blood could be seen, it was still very scary.
Miss Wu saw it and felt pain.
She took out a handkerchief and wrapped it up in her heart.
Perhaps out of gratitude for the news, or perhaps out of a sympathy for the young man she met, she was very concerned about him and cared about him a lot.
She had completely forgotten her identity as the daughter of a rich family.
Tianci was not panicky.
A faint feminine scent wafted into his nose.
Soft fingers wandered around his left arm.
The pain on his left arm seemed to have become incomparably comfortable.
Tianci was like a monkey and could not help but turn to look at Miss Wu.
Her brows and eyelashes were long and her lips were as white as snow.
She was extraordinarily beautiful.
Everyone had the heart to love beauty, although even a saint could not stop it.
Tianci could no longer turn his gaze away when he looked at her, and an unspeakable feeling arose in his heart.
Under Tianci's strange gaze, Miss Wu's cheeks were flushed and her delicate hands were trembling.
She finally managed to bandage her wounds.
She rolled her eyes at Tianci and turned into the carriage, lowering her head without a word.
Her heart was beating like a deer's.
No one knew whether it was sweet or panic.
Tianci found it hard to suppress the itch in his heart and his soul had flown out of his body.
He thought to himself, "This is so beautiful for Miss Wu.
She glared at me, looking a bit coquettish.
Are you angry?
The way she's angry is even more charming." Then, he started to blame himself.
"Oh, Li Tianci!
You're so incorrigible!
You've completely forgotten the principle of 'don't look at others when they're waiting for you'.
You were the chivalrous lady in red who had saved your life just now.
Now, you're thinking of all these lecherous thoughts." Self-blame was one thing, but the desire in Tianci's heart was another.
He was a graceful lady and a gentleman.
It was normal for a young man in his early twenties to have an illusion of a beautiful young woman.
The charming figure of the woman in red quietly unlocked Tianci's heart.
Although it was just a glimpse, it left an indelible impression.
The sweet smile of the moment of her death was deeply imprinted in Tianci's mind, and Miss Wu's beautiful face seemed to be washed away.
The carriage rumbled forward.
Tianci was worried and speechless.
Staring at his strong back, Miss Wu's shyness faded away.
Finally, she broke the silence and asked, "Mr.
Li, what are you thinking about?" How could the thoughts in his heart be told to her?
Tianci forced a smile.
"I'm thinking about this trip to the capital.
It's a long journey and there must be someone to take care of her.
I'll ask Lord Juezhou to send someone to escort the young lady to the capital.
The family of officials and families were robbed in the boundary of Jining.
As a local official, I can't leave her alone." Miss Wu said, "Have we already reached the boundary of Ji Ning Prefecture?
I thought we were still in Bian Prefecture!" Tianci said, "It can't be wrong.
Please take a look.
That's Pengzi Mountain.
If you can see Pengzi Mountain, you'll see him coming to Ji Ning Prefecture." Looking into the distance, they saw that the wilderness was vast and endless, and the carriage had already driven out of the rugged mountain road.
In the distance was a vague mountain shadow, and close to it were emerald fields.
There were three to five smoke villages dotted with small hills and lush forests.
Miss Wu asked, "What is the name of this small mountain?" Tianci said, "This is not a mountain.
It's a relic of the old kingdom of Lu.
Duke Lu once defeated the Master Song here.
It was built to defend against the disaster of war, but eventually, it was destroyed.
After thousands of years of erosion, the broken walls and debris disappeared, leaving only a pile of loess for future generations to rely on." The girls were all very sentimental.
Miss Wu couldn't help frowning and sighing, "Why is there always a war in every city in every relic?
When it comes to the Qiu, it is either Duke Lu defeats the teacher of the Song family, or Zhao Wei defeats the Chu family of the Chu dynasty.
The Book of History says it is a piece of land, and the Book of Water noted that it is a land of Song.
The Book of the Nether World is to proclaim that it is a land of the Song.
The book also mentions a sentence,'In the Battle ofQius, the Childe comes out of theexact gate of Lu City, and at that time, he conquers the Qiu dynasty.
The war is full of books, as if the ancestors are killing and killing.
I like reading, but I can't read it anymore every time I see it.
Is there anything else to record other than the war?" Tianci replied, "The ancient sayings that aristocratic courts are nothing more than open-handed battles.
Music is a superficial article.
Going there is a way to consolidate one's power.
Only after the war breaks down will the world be in peace.
The cities that have been destroyed will spring up like mushrooms and be rebuilt, becoming more prosperous than in the past.
It is a pity that the innocent who have died in the war will never be born again.
Wars are terrifying, and greed is even more terrifying.
Sorrows are hard to fill.
Your children are like jade spears, and your power and titles will never be satisfying.
The war will continue to last forever, and there will always be battles in books." The two of them had a pleasant talk and did not know the distance.
Miss Wu was well-read and thoughtful.
Tianci felt that he was inferior, and he admired her.
While they were talking and laughing, they seemed to cover a distance of tens of miles in a flash, and Jining City was looking at them leisurely.
