Chapter 50 War Disaster

"There is indeed dragon energy here. The people in that village are right. The two people and the horse should be coming here." A soldier on horseback reported to the officer.

"So it seems that the dragon colt was picked up by a merchant who thought it was a treasure, so he took it with him. Tsk, he doesn't know how to live or die. He dared to move it without even checking whose things it was?" The officer smiled and roughly guessed the course and development of the matter.

Because they suspected that the popularity had dispersed the results of the divination, they searched all the villages within a radius of 500 miles.

There were two villages in total, one of which had more people. A very strange merchant came today.

He was called a merchant, but in fact, the man's behavior was very strange. Not only did he take a woman who looked powerless on the road, but he also led an injured old horse.

He claimed to be here to exchange some beans for the old horse.

The officer knew that if he wanted to take a horse on a long journey, he would definitely prepare some beans or even elixirs in advance.

Horses are precious, large in size, and consume a lot of energy. How can they find supplies after a long journey? What can the beans in those villages do?

Dragon colts don’t need to eat those garbage beans. To take good care of a dragon colt, you need elixirs, spiritual herbs, and even some precious minerals and spiritual stones.

This thing is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Leading a wounded dragon colt, but letting it eat weeds and chew soybeans.

No need to think, it must be the dragon colt that they chased.

So, continue to search along the traces. After finding the horse hoof prints, they quickly move towards the place where the dragon colt ran.

"Xiaoqi, found it! It must be on the mountain in front!" A sergeant shouted.

"Go, speed up." The officer gave an order.

"Don't you want to wait for them?" A sergeant asked.

When he said this, he looked around him. There were only five brothers left out of the original ten.

The remaining five are cleaning up the rear.

Cleaning up what?

After all, they have gone deep into the enemy's rear and have come to Dalu. How can we not destroy the living forces of Dalu Kingdom?

"Wait a minute, it shouldn't take long to kill two villages, and it won't take much time for a thousand civilians." The officer waved his hand. Since the position and direction of Longju have been determined, it won't take long.

It's at most two hundred miles away, and it should arrive tonight.

After a while, five black-armored knights were seen passing through the darkness.

"Xiaoqi, they have been killed. There are two witches guarding the village, but one is not of grade and the other is of grade nine. They have been killed. The heads are here." The leading sergeant stepped forward, dismounted, and walked over with two heads in his hands.

"Okay, kill the cultivators, and you five will be credited with one merit. Pickle the heads, and I will report to Gongcao when I go back." The officer said so.

"Thank you, Xiaoqi!" The five people hurriedly bowed, and then put the two bloody heads away.

If Li Qi were here, he would recognize at a glance that one of the heads belonged to the witch in the village where he had traded in the afternoon.

"Let's go. We have eliminated the trouble and got two heads. If we can get the dragon colt back, we will definitely get a lot of credit and a great reward this time!" said the officer, and then he whipped his whip.

With a snap, the horse neighed, and the five of them quickly rushed in the direction of the dragon colt.

——————————

On the other side, Li Qi laughed at himself for being useless while preparing for possible situations.

Why was it useless? Of course, he was going to keep watch on the enemy, but he didn't find anything after watching for half the night, but Shen Shuibi, who was asleep, heard it directly.

Really... what a loser, myself.

However, since they caught up, I could only block them myself.

Let Lao Ma take Shen Shuibi away. They both have no fighting power and there is no need to be here.

Li Qi stood near the foot of the mountain, which is under the cliff of the altar, preparing himself and considering his words.

If you can convince the other party with words, then there is no need to fight.

If you can solve the problem with words, there is no need to risk your life to fight, that is very dangerous. Li Qi still prefers to solve the problem with his brain.

But... you still have to be prepared.

Words can solve the problem, but the premise is that the opponent's knife can't solve you.

If the knife can solve you, no matter how sharp your words are, it will be useless.

He kept waiting, probably less than a quarter of an hour.

Then, he saw it.

A team of black-armored knights!

All of them, all have horses!

They are fully equipped with armor, and there are different patterns on the armor, but the whole body is pure black, looking fierce.

All the knights have long swords on their backs, big guns in their hands, and a light crossbow hanging on their waists. They can attack at long, medium and short distances. They ride tall horses, and the bottom is six feet tall. The officer in the lead is a seven-foot horse.

Although not as tall as the old horse, they are full of energy, young and strong, and look powerful.

Li Qiguang swallowed his saliva when he saw this situation.

Damn, that… Chiyun represents military disaster.

I thought they were bandits or something, how come they are regular troops?

And they are definitely not ordinary regular troops, maybe they are elite troops.

This is really, a serious "military disaster".

Li Qi prepared himself, holding a stone in his hand, and stepped aside.

Maybe they are just passing by? Just walk past them.

Li Qi thought so.

But obviously, he thought too much.

That team of soldiers, ten people, some of them were murderous, and one of them had two heads hanging on his horse. It was not easy to mess with them. After noticing Li Qi, they quickly stopped.

The group of soldiers did not move forward rashly, but one of them drove forward and walked up.

"Why is the one in front standing in the mountains at night?" said the soldier.

Li Qi deliberately made himself tremble, his voice trembling: "Little...little man, little man is a merchant, camping here, I saw the soldiers before, and hurriedly got up, afraid of blocking the way of the soldiers."

"Merchant?" The soldier frowned, then turned his horse's head and went back to whisper a few words to the officer.

After hearing this, the officer understood, rode forward, walked ten steps away from Li Qi, and said kindly: "Little brother, you said you are a merchant, did you pick up a horse before?"

Hearing this, Li Qi was awed.

Sure enough, they came for the old horse.

So... hand over the old horse? Can it buy your own safety? This thought popped up in his mind.

However, he immediately shook his head.

Impossible, the injury of Lao Ma should be the masterpiece of this group of people. If he handed him over, Lao Ma would surely die.

These days, Li Qi and Lao Ma have been getting along very well, and Lao Ma is also an important helper for him to find Luofu Niangniang, so he can't give up.

Then...

"I...I haven't seen you." Li Qi was going to fool around first.

But what he didn't expect was that before he finished speaking, the officer picked up the crossbow and shot!
