Volume I Chapter 1193 Pipe Interception
"well!"
The leader of the caravan, Chen Merchant couldn't help applauding, that man with the epee had a withdrawn personality.
The old father had helped him in times of crisis, and now that the old father had left, the epee man, in order to repay his kindness, offered to follow the caravan for ten years and protect the safety of the caravan.
Of course.
He won't take part in trivial matters.
Only when life and death are at stake, and Chen Shanghu can't solve it by himself, will the epee man Ah Qiu come forward.
It's over now.
More than nine years.
This trip is over.
The ten-year deadline is up.
In the past ten years, the caravan of Chen merchants has also grown stronger and stronger.
It has almost become the strongest caravan in Huacheng, no matter which city it transports the goods to, it can arrive successfully every time.
Because it is safe and reliable.
So this way.
Chen merchants have always had a steady stream of goods.
At this moment, Ah Qiu pierced the golden python's sword through the Tianling Gai.
Flying and leaping down from the golden python.
He swung his sword again and took away the demon pill of the golden python.
Afterwards, he returned to the cart and continued to sit and rest with his eyes closed.
Chen merchant was very excited.
After saluting Ah Qiu, he asked the members of the caravan to peel off the leather armor of the golden python.
This leather armor is priceless.
If you sell them in the capital, you can get a lot of spirit stones.
I don't know how many times more money than this shipment.
Lao Huang also hurriedly drove the cart back to the pipeline.
Him as a chef.
He has mastered "good knife skills".
In the past, I helped peel the armor.
After peeling off the leather armor, he didn't forget to cut it off, tens of catties of snake meat, and was going to wait for the evening. After the caravan stopped, he found a corner to sit down with Chu Linguang and eat barbecue.
Chu Linguang sat on the cart the whole time.
That Aqiu's strength gave him some experience.
Lao Huang had already told him about the relationship between Ah Qiu and the caravan.
Chu Linguang recognized such a person in his heart.
Knowing how to repay kindness is a person who can be handed over.
Of course.
Now this stage.
Chu Linguang would not provoke the other party.
Sometimes, good luck is the best choice.
It seemed that he felt Chu Linguang's gaze.
That Aqiu turned around and looked in Chu Linguang's direction.
As a strong man in the Shenyuan Realm whose strength is stronger than that of Xie Zuoshi, Ah Qiu's keen senses are very powerful.
He was already in the crowd and found that Chu Linguang was unusual.
However, his duty is to guard the safety of the caravan.
As long as Chu Linguang didn't mess with the caravan, he didn't care who Chu Linguang was, why he followed the caravan, and talked and laughed with Lao Huang all the way.
His glance was also a warning to Chu Linguang.
Let Chu Linguang better not have bad thoughts.
Chu Linguang and Ah Qiu looked at each other.
As if I saw it, a broad and thick heavy sword came from where Ah Qiu was, and finally dissipated in the air.
Ah Qiu was a little surprised.
How could an ordinary Divine Origin Realm be able to resist the oppression of his aura, but Chu Linguang was acting like a normal person, which somewhat surprised him.
However, he didn't provoke Chu Linguang immediately.
Chu Linguang may be very strong.
But he is not weak either.
That golden python is the end.
I believe that Chu Linguang is a sensible person who can understand the situation clearly.
Chen Merchant peeled off the leather armor of the giant golden python, and everyone went up in a line. After cutting dozens of catties of meat from the giant python, they all came back satisfied.
Then the caravan continued to set off.
In the next few days, all the way was uneventful.
The caravan was full of laughter from beginning to end.
The Chen merchant got the leather armor of the golden python, like a treasure, and laughed the loudest along the way.
The members of the caravan escort who can share the snake meat and have no worries about food along the way are also very satisfied.
Until, at this time, a checkpoint appeared ahead.
The voices of the crowd gradually quieted down.
Chen Merchant seemed to have realized the strangeness, trotted forward, nodded and bowed to the person in charge of the checkpoint, and presented a piece of golden python leather armor, hoping to pass smoothly.
"Snapped!"
I don't know what happened.
The person in charge of the checkpoint, after accepting the leather armor of the golden python, waved his hand and slapped Chen Merchant on the face.
Although Chen Merchant has the highest level of cultivation.
But that level is in charge.
stronger.
The peak of the Supreme Realm, and he is a housekeeper. Judging by the official uniform on his body, he is an official of the Southwest Palace.
The caravan is leading to Southwest City.
The people of the Southwest King cannot be offended.
After being slapped in the face, Chen Merchant didn't dare to resist. On the contrary, his face was still full of smiles, he kept apologizing, and quietly took out some spirit stones and offered them to him.
But after the official accepted the spirit stone, he waved his hand impatiently, signaling Chen Shanghu to get out of here quickly and stop chattering over there.
Seeing that Chen Shanghu's entanglement continued like this, he might have to be slapped a few more times.
dare not say anything.
I could only feel disheartened and come back with a depressed stomach all the way.
"Boss, what happened?"
Although Lao Huang is just a chef, he usually gets very close to Chen merchants. The two of them would sit down and drink a few glasses of wine every time after the caravan delivered the goods. Of course, Lao Huang was in charge every time.
Seeing that Chen Shanghu was slapped loudly by the official, he also gave away a big bag of spirit stones for nothing.
Doesn't seem to be getting any good results.
Lao Huang asked with some concern.
"Let's take a detour, and the pipeline ahead won't let us go."
Chen Merchant said gloomily.
"Where are you going?"
Lao Huang asked puzzledly.
"Take the road around the lake."
Chen Shanghu replied, and at the same time looked at Ah Qiu. As long as Ah Qiu showed his cultivation level at this time, the adults on the pipeline would never dare to stop them and let them detour around the lake road.
"What? It's not a few days' journey."
Old Huang was shocked.
The closest pipeline to Southwest City is the main road right now.
If you detour around the Huanhu Road, you will let go of the straight-line distance and insist on running around.
"How can this be? Did something happen before?"
"Can you let the adults be accommodating, and if you go around a few times, I'm afraid it will delay the delivery date."
"My wife is still waiting for me at home!"
...
Hearing this, everyone was complaining.
These caravans escort people.
Every time I go out, I count the days accurately, although things often happen, delay time, and sometimes even encounter danger.
But at this moment, seeing that if you continue to take the main road, you can reach Southwest City in just over a day. If you go around, you will waste several days in vain.
Chen Merchant is the head of the caravan.
He is the most anxious.
Because the deadline for delivery is only three days later, if you make a detour, even if you hurry up, it will be difficult to deliver the goods within the specified deadline.
Once the delivery is delayed.
You have to pay a lot of liquidated damages.
Chen merchant loves money like his life.
Although he got the leather armor of the golden python on the way, he has already made a lot of money on this trip.
But there is still some reconciliation in my heart.
Immediately bit the bullet and came to Ah Qiu.
"My lord, can you..."
"cannot!"
But before he finished speaking, Ah Qiu categorically rejected him.
Chen Shanghu couldn't help but look sad.
For things that Ah Qiu didn't want to do, he could only persuade him with good words, but he didn't dare to force him.
Just when I was about to lose and leave.
Ah Qiu suddenly said, "There is someone here who can help you."
"who?"
Chen merchant hurriedly asked.
"The young man who sat on the same cart as Lao Huang."
Ah Qiu intends to test Chu Linguang's true strength.
"he……"
Chen merchant frowned.
The road is dangerous, and people often follow the caravan to the destination. There is mutual support on the road, but they all need to pay the caravan spirit stone protection fee.
It's not that he has no impression of Chu Linguang.
Faced with this situation, what can he do for those who need the protection of the caravan on the road.
But thinking of A Qiuhui's eyes like torches, he is not an ordinary person.
It may be seen that Chu Linguang's status is unusual, he may be a nobleman.
Immediately, he and Lao Huang came to Chu Linguang together.
Chen Merchant said with a smile: "Brother, there suddenly appeared a checkpoint ahead, and it will take a few more days for our caravan to go around the Huanhu Road before arriving at Southwest City.
I think you have something urgent to go to Southwest City.
Definitely don't want to waste time.
So can you please come forward and try to see if you can let the official let us go together. "
Chen Shanghu is an old trickster.
The stakes are made clear.
The look of laughing makes people feel uncomfortable.
Chu Linguang looked at Aqiu who was facing away from him, closing his eyes and resting his mind, and knew in his heart that this must be Aqiu's suggestion.
He pondered for a moment, then Dang even got out of the car and walked towards the checkpoint.
It stands to reason that on the pipeline, before entering the city, generally no card will be set up.
Suddenly set up a card, what is the so-called.
Could it be related to oneself.
Chu Linguang knew that the moment he came out of Qiongxia Iceland and returned to Huacheng, there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him.
After leaving the city, countless figures followed.
He was thrown away from behind.
He traveled with the caravan, which made it impossible for those with ulterior motives.
Could it be that those people couldn't find him, so they set up checkpoints on the pipeline.
It's just that the people in front of him are all from the Southwest Palace.
This is already the site of the Southwest Palace.
This inexplicable level still made Chu Linguang somewhat curious.
Immediately came to the checkpoint.
The official here, after seeing Chen merchants returning, the caravan did not immediately start off and divert. On the contrary, he let a young man walk in his direction, making it clear that he did not give up.
I couldn't help being annoyed for a while.
He was about to brandish the whip and hit Chu Linguang.
But seeing Chu Linguang's eyes like a knife, he swept over lightly, and everyone fell into an abyss. The whip he raised fell to the ground, his face changed drastically, and he hurriedly said in a trembling voice: "Brother, what are you going to do?" what?"
"Let me ask you, why did you suddenly set up a checkpoint to prevent the caravan from traveling together and make the caravan divert?"
Chu Linguang said bluntly.
"The little one doesn't know the specific reason. I just heard that the days ahead are not peaceful. In order to ensure the safety of the caravans coming and going, the prince ordered all the caravans to detour."
The official did not dare to hide it.
When Chu Linguang heard this, his piercing eyes looked forward, looking at the pipelines with dense jungles on both sides.
Chu Linguang could understand what the official said.
It seemed that the King of Southwest knew that he was on his way.
The forces of all parties have also prepared means of interception, waiting for him in front.
In order to prevent the battle situation from affecting the caravans coming and going, a checkpoint was set up here to let the caravans passing by.
"How about it?"
Chen Shanghu saw that after Chu Linguang came, the official lord, who had been domineering, dropped the whip in his hand to the ground in fright. In front of Chu Linguang, he bowed his knees and had no official authority at all.
I am overjoyed.
Hastily rushed forward.
Thought we could go together.
"Listen to them and make a detour."
Chu Linguang said lightly.
Then he turned and returned to the caravan.
"This...isn't it said, can you help?"
When Chen merchant heard this, his smile froze.
He came back with a depressed face.
After they left, a soldier next to Master Guan whispered, "My lord, how dare that man..."
"Shut up, the prince has told you that if someone strong breaks through the barrier by force, he must not stop him."
Master Guan knew that Xiao Bing was only talking. Under Chu Linguang's eyes just now, his legs were trembling with fright.
Obviously, Chu Linguang is the strong man that Shizi said, such a person should not be provoked, and if he wants to break through the barrier by force, he will not stop him if he walks on the main road.
However, Chu Linguang did not.
Instead, he calmly returned to the caravan.
Seeing Chu Linguang returning to the cart, Aqiu followed his gaze towards the distant pipeline. With his sharp eyes, he seemed to be able to feel the unusual aura.
"The days are not peaceful recently, so it's better not to stir up trouble."
Lao Huang also returned to the cart.
As soon as I saw it, Chen Shanghu actually urged Chu Linguang to talk to the official. He winked quietly and signaled Chu Linguang not to talk to him, but Chu Linguang still passed. I thought that Chu Linguang might be whipped, but when the official saw Chu Linguang, he was so frightened that the whip in his hand dropped to the ground.
Lao Huang knew that Chu Linguang's identity was definitely not simple.
But it's been a few days.
It was fun, and although Lao Huang was a little surprised, he didn't feel restrained.
"Old Huang, let's part ways today."
Chu Linguang pondered.
"What, are you?"
Old Huang was surprised.
"I have to go up the pipe."
Chu Linguang wanted to pretend to be confused, followed the caravan, and entered the Southwest King by detour.
After thinking it over later, I realized that if the King of Southwest intends to stop him, even if he takes a detour, he will be discovered by others, and he is afraid that he will implicate the caravan.
Thinking that the caravan escorts were all passionate men, even the shrewd merchant Chen was an innocent person, Chu Linguang couldn't bear to be involved.
Immediately get off the cart.
After clasping his fist at Lao Huang.
He strode towards the pipeline.
When the official saw Chu Linguang coming alone, he seemed to know his intention, and immediately opened the switch to make way.
Everyone felt incredible when they saw this scene.
"The ten-year period has expired, so I will leave."
Aqiu thought for a moment, then got off the cart, followed Chu Linguang, and walked towards the pipeline.
"Young master."
When Lao Huang saw that Ah Qiu got out of the car and followed Chu Linguang, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that Chu Linguang was not easy, so he immediately saluted Chu Linguang with his fists clasped.
But at this moment, a green light burst out from the grass, biting towards his neck.
It is a poisonous snake with a supreme cultivation level, how can Lao Huang avoid it.
Chu Linguang, who was walking forward, felt strange, turned his head slightly, and a sharp knife of light and shadow burst out from his sharp eyes.
"Howling!"
Aqiu, who followed Chu Linguang, wanted to compare.
There was also a sword light in his eyes, and he slashed at the poisonous snake that was rushing towards Lao Huang.
Pooh!
The poisonous snake was cut into two pieces, and its body slapped the ground indiscriminately.
Although Chu Linguang's sword shadow was farther away, it struck the poisonous snake first.
Ah Qiu's sword shadow arrived later, and fell in the air. The sword energy surged, scaring the poisonous snakes in the grass and running around. It turned out that there was a snake nest there.
