Xu Ning felt very relieved, he finally got in touch with the secretary.
If he can seize this opportunity, get some secret master resources, or even have the opportunity to work in this Wuliu courtyard, then he will officially start the road of secret master.
"it is good!"
Seeing Xu Ning take over the errand, Du Xiao also smiled.
After all, there are still risks on this long journey, and he was very worried that Xu Ning would refuse.
"When are we leaving?"
Xu Ning asked.
"Tomorrow morning."
Du Xiao replied.
"In that case, then I'll clean up and go to your Blizzard Escort tonight."
Xu Ning said.
"it is good."
Du Xiao responded.
…
A month has passed in a hurry.
It was raining heavily and the road was muddy.
A group of people, wearing strong clothes, draped coir raincoats, and riding big horses, surrounded a carriage loaded with goods in the middle.
Among them, most of them have cautious expressions on their faces.
It was the Kuangfeng Escort and others who were preparing to escort the goods to Wuliuyuan.
"There are still 20 miles to reach the county seat ahead. At that time, we will find a place to live in the county seat, rest for two days, and then continue on our way."
At this time, the strong man riding in front of the team turned around and shouted.
This brawny man is the leader of the Storm Escort, named Yao Feng.
Because the dart betting was extremely important, Yao Feng went to battle in person.
After hearing Yao Feng's yelling, the dozen or so people in the line behind all showed a smile on their faces.
They ran all the way, non-stop, and were extremely exhausted physically and mentally.
It would indeed be a beautiful thing if he could rest for two days in this state.
Now Xu Ning is also in the team, his mental state and physical state are much stronger than others.
"Brother Xu."
At this time, Du Xiao, who had invited Xu Ning to accompany him, came over on horseback.
His attitude towards Xu Ning was very polite.
In this month, the team of the Storm Escort encountered robbery three times.
Among them, the first two times were ordinary little guys, people from the Blast Guards, and they solved it by themselves.
But for the third time, they encountered a wave of powerful horse bandits.
Originally, the people in the Gust Escort were all nervous, and they were all ready to sacrifice many people.
But at this time, Xu Ning stepped forward and beheaded the enemy's head with thunderous momentum, so that the battle that might have caused huge casualties was easily resolved.
This also let the people of the Blaster Escort know that this swordsman is actually so powerful.
It is also because of this that Xu Ning has accumulated great prestige in the team of the Storm Escort and won the respect of others.
"Brother Du."
After a month of working together, Xu Ning is also quite familiar with Du Xiao.
"With you as your company on this trip, we feel a lot more at ease."
Du Xiao was a little lucky, he pulled Xu Ning over at that time.
"My elder brother said that after returning safely, he will give you an additional reward."
Du Xiao said.
"Then thank you."
Xu Ning said so, but there was no disturbance in his heart.
Da da da.
The sound of horseshoes echoed in the rain.
The team moved on.
"Um?"
Suddenly, a sense of crisis surged into Xu Ning's heart, and his whole attention became tense in an instant.
Whoosh!
The next moment, a sharp arrow suddenly shot out from the dense forest beside the mountain road.
"Be careful!"
Xu Ning let out a loud shout.
Pooh!
At this time, Yao Feng, who was riding in the front, was shot in the arm.
"There are enemies!"
Yao Feng was also shocked.
When a sharp arrow came and Xu Ning yelled a reminder, Yao Feng also sensed that the crisis was coming.
He dodged in a hurry, but was still a step too slow, resulting in being shot by a sharp arrow.
"The arrow is poisonous!"
Yao Feng inspected the wound and found that there was blue-black venom spreading from the wound.
Yao Feng gritted his teeth, then pulled out his long sword and cut off his injured arm directly.
Based on Yao Feng's many years of experience in the arena, if he hesitated for a while, what he would lose would not be an arm, but his own life.
When the team was attacked, they panicked for a while, and the formation became disorganized.
Whoosh whoosh!
It was another rain of arrows.
Because they were already prepared, these bodyguards were also experienced in many battles, and they were not injured by sharp arrows again.
Then, more than a dozen masked figures emerged from the dense forest, and charged at the guards.
"Meet the enemy!"
Yao Feng drank it immediately.
Afterwards, the two sides fought together.
"This ambush seems to be different from before!"
As Xu Ning slashed at the enemy with a knife, he thought to himself: "The people who robbed us before just regarded us as random targets, but this time, it seems that they are very targeted."
Pooh!
Xu Ning killed the person who assassinated him head-on with a single knife.
Then, he turned around and took the initiative to attack several stronger enemies.
After some fighting, the tough bones were all taken down by Xu Ning.
On the side of the Gust Escort, they also stabilized their formation, beheading or driving away the enemies.
"The enemy has retreated!"
Seeing this, Yao Feng said, "Hurry up, protect the cargo, let's speed up!"
Yao Feng only wanted to enter the county as soon as possible, so that his safety could be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
Everyone also moved faster.
"and many more!"
At this moment, Xu Ning suddenly called everyone to stop.
Just when everyone was puzzled, they saw several figures walking out of the rain in the distance.
Walking in front were four cold-faced men in black.
Their eyes are cold, they hold long blades, and they have a cold look on their bodies. They look like masters.
The four stood still, and then, a person walked out from behind them. That person was wearing a loose robe and a bamboo hat on his head. The rain fell, along the bamboo hat, and slid onto his clothes.
I don't know what material his clothes are made of, and they haven't been soaked in any way.
"This is… "
When seeing the man in the bamboo hat, Xu Ning's pupils shrank.
Xu Ning's instinct told him that this man in the bamboo hat is very terrifying to him now, and has the strength to kill him.
"Could it be..."
Xu Ning thought of a possibility: "Is this person a secret teacher?"
The reason for this inference is that Xu Ning's physical strength is at the limit of ordinary people, and the martial arts he has mastered are also the essence accumulated over the years in the martial arts world.
Such Xu Ning, among mortals, has no opponent at all.
It is impossible for anyone else to really give Xu Ning such a sense of oppression, except for the extraordinary mystics in this world.
"Leave the things, and then cut off your right arm, and I will let you live."
The long-robed man lifted his bamboo hat, revealing an old and sinister face.
"This… "
At this time, Yao Feng, Du Xiao and other experienced veteran bodyguards also changed their expressions at the same time.
They also seem to realize that the old man in the bamboo hat in front of them is a terrifying secret teacher.
The enemy turned out to be a secret master...
For a moment, the atmosphere was extremely suppressed.
