10: The death of the horse thief shocked Li San!
This scene also fell into the eyes of those who were about to leave Shili Town in the distance.
"They are just a bunch of fools, nothing to worry about."
It was a middle-aged man who spoke, then he turned his head to look at a woman whose face was covered with a white veil, and said in a low voice,
"Young Miss, we should set off as soon as possible. We are not far from Qingyun County now and can reach the county town today."
"En, Uncle Chen, let's set off as soon as possible."
.....
"Hm? Is someone following us?"
Lu Xuan, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed inside the carriage, suddenly opened his eyes.
Because he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horse hooves not far behind him, and the sound was getting closer and closer.
"Are they passersby? Or do they have ill intentions?"
Without Lu Xuan's reminder, Li San, who was sitting in front of the carriage, also sensed the abnormality behind him.
Li San immediately leaned out half his body and looked behind the carriage.
There were two horses, and two men were sitting on each horse.
Two tall and strong-looking men were squeezed tightly together on the small horse's back, looking very comical.
However, Li San did not ridicule them for their comical appearance at this moment.
Instead, his right hand immediately grabbed the hilt of the saber at his waist, looking extremely vigilant.
Outside the county town, dangers lurked everywhere. One had to face not only the dangers of wild beasts in the mountains but also be wary of mountain bandits and robbers.
Human hearts were sinister. Those mountain bandits and robbers who blocked roads and robbed killed people like flies, utterly inhumane.
This was also the reason why Li San was very reluctant when he heard Lu Xuan wanted to take him out of the county town.
It was only when Lu Xuan showed off his powerful Martial Dao cultivation that Li San put aside his worries.
Otherwise, if only a few of them left the county town, they wouldn't even know how they died out there.
"Young Master, someone is coming from behind."
"En, I know, no need to worry."
The voice from inside the carriage was light and calm as water, which relaxed Li San's tense heart a little.
Then, Li San raised his hand and gently patted the honest big man next to him.
"Hey, Iron Bull, there's someone behind us. Drive the carriage over a bit."
The speed of the carriage was much slower than riding a horse alone, so Li San planned to drive the carriage to the edge, leaving a passage.
The four people behind also noticed that the carriage had moved to the edge of the main road.
The eldest among the four, at this moment, had a smile on his rugged face.
The kid in front, it seemed, was really a fool. With their obvious movements, he still hadn't figured out their identities.
Anyone with experience would know what they wanted to do.
Unexpectedly, the kid in front was still foolishly making way for them.
Jie jie jie!
It seemed his fate was not to perish. When he was at his wit's end, heaven actually sent him a big fat sheep.
The four people on the two horses now had their eyes flickering with fierce light.
They stared intently at the approaching carriage, like a hunter eyeing its prey, ready to hunt at any moment.
Li San, sitting beside the carriage, felt the wind whistling past him. Evidently, the two horses behind had already galloped up and were abreast of the carriage.
Li San gripped the hilt of his saber tighter, his pupils constricted, as he stared at the two horses beside them.
However, when Li San saw that the other side didn't seem to be looking at them, all of them were focused on their journey.
This made Li San's vigilance drop a few points. Just as he was about to release his tight grip on the saber hilt,
In an instant, the big man sitting at the very back of the horse closest to Li San.
Stretched out his large hand and threw the object he was holding towards Li San.
It was a tattered cloth, seemingly wrapped around something. The tattered cloth opened in mid-air, and the wrapped object immediately reflected in Li San's eyes.
White stuff, similar to flour, scattered in mid-air, covering Li San's direction.
"Young Master, be careful! Enemy attack!"
Li San reacted instantly, his large saber at his waist was drawn out in response, looking as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
Just as the white, flour-like substance was about to reach Li San's face.
Behind the carriage, Lu Xuan's eyes narrowed, and a powerful Aura surged out.
Subsequently, a strong gust of wind erupted inside the carriage, and the terrifying wind lifted the front curtain, then swept out of the carriage.
The white, flour-like substance, upon encountering this powerful gust of wind, returned in the direction it came from at an even faster speed.
Bang!
What followed was a loud thud of an object falling to the ground, and cries of agony that pierced the sky.
"Ah!"
"My eyes!"
A big man fell from his horse onto the ground, looking extremely pained, rolling back and forth on the ground.
The remaining three immediately reacted, looking at the big man who had fallen to the ground, their eyes filled with terror.
Then they also saw the carriage curtain lifted, and Lu Xuan sitting upright inside, holding a large saber.
How could the three of them not see the extraordinary nature of the person inside? The other party was a master in the Martial Dao Realm.
"Big Brother!"
"Run!"
"He's a tough one!"
The next moment, the remaining three did not drag their feet at all, as if they had made some kind of decision, whipping the horses beneath them with all their might without looking back.
Their strongest big brother had been taken down. If they didn't run, were they going to stay here and die?
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Several sounds of objects cutting through the air, three fruit pits shot out from inside the carriage at an invisible speed!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three big men who hadn't run far instantly flipped off their horses, then fell to the ground, twitched for a while, and then became motionless.
All of this happened in a few breaths. By the time the two people sitting in front of the carriage reacted.
Li San and the honest big man Iron Bull looked at each other silently, their pupils dilated, as if they had seen something incredible.
Hiss!
Li San couldn't help but swallow, taking a deep breath.
This, this, this!
Who can tell me what exactly happened!
Young Master!
To what extent has Young Master's Martial Dao Realm reached? It's truly unbelievable.
A few people, in just one breath, were solved by Young Master just like that?
No wonder Young Master dared to leave the county town alone. So Young Master's Martial Dao Realm has already become this powerful?
Li San thought here, secretly rejoicing for a moment. Fortunately, he didn't refuse Young Master at that time, otherwise he might have...
The inexplicably powerful gust of wind dissipated, and the lifted curtain at the back of the carriage also fell, obscuring the view inside the carriage.
Then, a voice came from inside the carriage, through the curtain. It was Lu Xuan speaking.
"Alright, Li San, continue on our way."
Lu Xuan's tone was as calm as water, as if nothing had happened at all.
"Yes, Young Master!"
