Chapter 50 Military Disaster
"There is indeed a dragon spirit here. The people in that village are right. Those two people and one horse should be coming this way." A soldier on horseback reported to the officer.
"Then it looks like that dragon colt was picked up by a trader. He thought it was a treasure, so he took it with him. Hey, you don't know whether it's life or death, and you don't even know who owns it, so you dare to mess around with it?" The officer smiled and roughly surmised the course and development of the matter.
Suspecting that popularity had diluted the divination results, they searched all villages within a radius of 500 miles.
There are two villages in total, one of which has more people, a very strange merchant came here today.
He was said to be a businessman, but in fact, the man's behavior was very strange. Not only did he take a woman who seemed to be helpless on the road, he also led an injured old horse.
He claimed that he was here to exchange some beans for Lao Ma.
This officer knew that if he was going to take his horse on a long journey, he would definitely prepare some beans or even pills in advance.
Horses are expensive, large, and consume a lot of money. How can they find supplies after traveling long distances? What can those village beans do?
Dragon colt, what you need to eat is not that kind of rubbish beans. If you want 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 ordinary people can afford.
He led an injured dragon colt, but let the dragon colt eat weeds and soybeans.
No need to think about it, it must be the dragon colt that he is chasing.
Therefore, they continued to search along the traces. After discovering the horse's hoof prints, they quickly moved towards the place where the dragon colt ran.
"Xiaoqi, we found it! It must be on the mountain in front!" a sergeant shouted.
"Let's go, speed up." The officer ordered.
"Aren't you going 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.
There are five left, mopping up behind.
What's the end?
After all, they are deep behind enemy lines, and they have all come to Dalu. What if we don't wipe out the effective forces of Dalu country?
"Wait a minute, it won't take long for two villages, and it won't take long for a thousand civilians." The officer waved his hand. Since the position and direction of Longju have been determined, it won't take long.
The distance is two hundred miles at most, so we should arrive tonight anyway.
After a while, I saw five black-armored knights walking through the darkness.
"Xiaoqi, all have been destroyed. There are two shamans guarding the stronghold, but one is not a good grade and the other is a ninth grade. They have been killed. Their heads are here." The leading sergeant stepped forward, dismounted, and held his hands in both hands. Walked over holding the two heads.
"Okay, kill the cultivators, mark the merits of the five of you, marinate the heads, and I will report the merits when we get back." The officer said.
"Thank you Xiaoqi!" The five people quickly handed over their hands, and then put the two bloody heads away.
If Li Qi were here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that one of the heads was the goddess from the village where he traded in the afternoon.
"Let's go, the future troubles have been eliminated, and we have also obtained two first-level merits. If we recover the dragon colt again, we will definitely get a full number of merits and get a big reward if we go back this time!" the officer said, and then fiercely Wave the riding crop.
There was a snap, the horse neighed, and a group of five people 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 is it useless? Of course, he planned to keep vigil to observe the enemy, but he didn't notice anything for half the night, but Shen Shuibi, who was asleep, heard it directly.
What a waste, myself.
However, since he is catching up, he can only block it himself.
Let Lao Ma leave with Shen Shuibi. They both have no fighting ability and there is no need to be here.
Li Qi stood near the root of the mountain, under the cliff of the altar, making preparations while considering his words.
If you can convince the other party with words, then there is no need to fight.
If things can be solved with words, there is no need to risk your life in a fight. That is very dangerous. Li Qi still prefers to use his brain to solve problems.
But...you still have to be prepared.
Lips can solve problems, but the premise is that the other party's knife cannot solve you.
A knife can kill you, no matter how sharp your words are, it's useless.
He kept waiting, probably less than a quarter of an hour.
Then he saw it.
A team of black-armored knights!
Everybody, everybody has a horse!
The armor on the body is complete, and there are different patterns on the armor, but the whole body is pure black, and it looks very evil.
All the knights have long swords on their backs, large guns in their hands, and light crossbows hanging on their waists. They are from far, medium and near distances. They are riding tall horses. They are six feet tall at the base, and the officer at the head is seven feet tall. Malaysia.
Although not as tall as the old horse, they are full of energy, young and strong, and look powerful.
Li Qiguang gulped when he saw this formation.
Damn, what the hell... Chiyun represents military disaster.
I thought they were bandits or something, but why the hell are they regular troops?
And this way, it is definitely not an ordinary regular army, maybe it is an elite force.
This is really a serious "military disaster".
Li Qi was ready, holding a stone in his hand, and took two steps to the side.
Maybe they were just passing by? Just walk over and forget it.
Li Qi thought so.
But it was obvious that he was overthinking it.
There were ten sergeants in that group, some of them were murderous, and one of them had two heads hanging on them. They were not easy to mess with at first glance. After noticing Li Qi, they stopped quickly.
The group of sergeants did not advance rashly, but one of them drove his horse forward and walked up.
"Why is the man in front standing in the mountains at night?" the sergeant said.
Li Qi deliberately made himself tremble, and his voice was trembling: "Little...little man, I am a businessman, sleeping here. I saw several military masters earlier, so I got up quickly, fearing to block the military master's way."
"Hongshang?" The sergeant frowned, then turned his horse's head and went back to whisper a few words to the officer.
After hearing this, the officer understood and rode forward. He walked ten steps away from Li Qi and said with a kind face: "Little brother, you said you are a businessman. Did you pick up a horse before?"
Hearing this, Li Qi felt awe-inspiring in his heart.
Sure enough, it was for Lao Ma.
So... hand over the old horse? Can you exchange for your own peace? The idea came to his mind.
However, he immediately shook his head.
Impossible. The injury sustained by Lao Ma must have been the work of these people. If he handed it over, Lao Ma would definitely die.
These days, Li Qi and Lao Ma are still getting along very well, and Lao Ma is also an important helper for him to find Empress Luofu, so there is no way he will give up.
So……
"Young man... I've never seen this little one before." Li Qi was going to fool him first.
But what he didn't expect was that before he finished speaking, the officer picked up the crossbow and raised his hand to shoot!
