One day later.
Black Crow Ridge.
"This is it. When we were about to leave this mountain that day, we were ambushed by the same mysterious man as Dadang from Heifeng Village."
Gu Mo said to the front.
Lao Ma was still doubtful at this time, so he said: "For so many years, the owner of Black Wind Village and his old employer have kept a close relationship with each other. Why did he suddenly rob the escorts escorted by his old employer this time? The strength of his old employer is so great that everyone knows it. If you know it, he won't be afraid of his old boss dragging him into trouble before he dies."
Jiang Yuandao: "There is only one explanation, and that is that the things my father escorted this time moved his heart, or the mysterious man put forward conditions that moved his heart."
Gu Mo nodded: "That's true. When we took over the consignment that day, the owner of the cargo paid our heartfelt price."
"What price?"
"The deposit is a hundred taels of gold, and a thousand taels of gold will be paid after delivery."
"Hiss!" Lao Ma suddenly took a breath of cold air: "So grand? A thousand taels of gold is equivalent to ten thousand taels of silver. What is in this small brocade box that is worth the price?"
"Is there something fishy in this?" Jiang Yuan suddenly asked.
Gu Mo thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Probably not. I have traveled extensively as escorts and have rich experience. Someone once asked him this, and he said there is no problem."
Jiang Yuan nodded, trusting Jiang Zhenyuan's judgment.
He has traveled around the world for so many years, so his experience must be much richer than mine, and his thinking is far more thoughtful than mine.
What's more, he has personal experience, so his judgment is definitely more accurate than he imagined.
Then Jiang Yuan said again: "Do you know what my father is escorting?"
Gu Mo shook his head: "I don't know, we have never opened the brocade box. As bodyguards, we cannot spy on the customer's goods privately. This is an iron rule!"
Jiang Yuan touched the brocade box on his body, feeling suddenly filled with curiosity.
After thinking about it, he gave up again.
It's not a crime, it's not necessary.
Moreover, this escort trip has to be delivered to your door.
Otherwise, what about the pensions of the twenty-something escort brothers who died here?
Those bodyguards are the backbone of the family. Maybe the whole family depends on him to support the family alone.
Now, following Jiang Zhenyuan and dying here, if there is not enough compensation.
As you can imagine, many tragic things will definitely happen.
Since I have taken over this cause and effect, I must fully understand it.
Then, Jiang Yuan said: "Let's go! Go into the mountains and bring their bodies back to Lin'an County, so that their souls can return to their hometown and their fallen leaves can return to their roots."
at this time.
Gu Mo suddenly said: "Young Master, there are still some people behind us who are following us!"
"Don't worry about them. If something happens to my father, the whole city will know about it soon! As long as they don't come here to seek death, just let them go."
"yes!"
Following Jiang Yuan and the others, they entered the mountain forest.
Several masked figures instantly appeared in the open space here.
Someone looked up and said in front of him: "Black Crow Ridge? The only way for Jiang Zhenyuan to pass. It seems that Jiang Zhenyuan may have really fallen into trouble here."
"There's no point in guessing. Just follow up and you'll find out!"
"Which force does this brother belong to?"
"Shenwei Martial Arts School!"
hehe! Believe it or not!
I am a member of the Shenwei Martial Arts School.
The man thought to himself.
...
As soon as Jiang Yuan and others entered Black Crow Ridge, the light dimmed instantly.
From time to time, the screams of black crows could be heard in the ears, which made people shudder.
"This place looks like a dangerous place at first glance. Why would my old club choose this path?"
Lao Ma muttered.
"This is the only way!" Gu Mo said.
After a while.
Lao Ma looked ahead with red eyes.
Within a hundred meters in front, he saw mutilated corpses lying in random directions.
Since they are all martial arts practitioners, their strength is extraordinary.
Even though they had been dead for several days, they were still full of evil spirits, and the black crows hovering around them only dared to test them again and again.
Especially one of the corpses, even if it had been dead for many days, not a single black crow dared to approach it.
next moment.
Lao Ma took a deep breath and opened his throat to the front.
"Roar!"
A roar.
It was like a thunder on the ground, and suddenly large groups of black crows flew towards the sky.
Then, Lao Ma walked over.
Touching their faces one by one, their lips moved slightly, as if they were silently reciting their names.
Jiang Yuan couldn't understand what Lao Ma was feeling at this moment, but he could understand it.
Among these people, there are some young masters and even Lao Ma who has watched them grow up step by step.
To Lao Ma, some are brothers and some are father and son.
He has been a widow for most of his life, and these people are his closest relatives.
far away.
Someone was standing on the branch, and when he saw this scene, his expression became condensed.
"Sure enough, something happened to Jiang Zhenyuan, and the entire Zhenyuan Escort Agency seems to be buried here!"
Below, someone with a strange figure slowly approached forward.
"What is he going to do?" someone behind him said.
"I guess he went to confirm whether Jiang Zhenyuan was among the corpses. We are so far apart that we can't see his face clearly."
the other side.
Jiang Yuan frowned slightly when he felt the masked man approaching behind him.
After a moment, Jiang Yuandao: "Gu Mo, do it!"
"yes!"
The words have not yet fallen.
Gu Mo's figure seemed to turn into a strong wind, speeding towards the person behind him.
not good!
The man felt the fierce murderous intent on Gu Mo's body, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he quickly retreated.
But the next moment.
He pulled out a black iron rod from the black cloth behind his back, gritted his teeth, and faced Gu Mo.
"Shenwei Stick! It seems that he is from the Shenwei Martial Arts School!" Someone commented in the distance.
The other person's face was suddenly full of embarrassment, because he had just pretended to be a member of the Shenwei Martial Arts School in front of this person from the Shenwei Martial Arts School.
Fortunately, his face was covered with a black scarf, so no one could see his expression.
Some people were puzzled and said: "Why didn't that person from the Shenwei Martial Arts Hall choose to fight Gu Mo? Gu Mo, the Kuai Dao, is a seventh-level master of body training and blood training. How can he be a sixth-level master?" Cuomo’s opponent.”
Then he said: "No! Kuai Dao Gu Mo, why is he holding an ordinary iron sword? Did he abandon the sword to practice swordsmanship?"
"How is that possible?" Someone sneered: "Gu Mo from the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau, no one knows that his sword skills are outstanding and his talent is extremely high. How could such a master with swords give up his sword and practice swordsmanship?"
"As for why he didn't run away, didn't you notice the huge difference in their speed? If you run away and expose your back, you will only die faster!"
Just as these people were discussing.
A scream suddenly came from the distance.
"How is that possible!" Someone looked shocked.
I saw that the person in the distance who belonged to the Shenwei Martial Arts Hall had fallen straight to the ground, with a column of blood spurting out from his neck.
"What...what's going on? Did any of you see clearly?"
The man said with a blank look on his face.
"I only saw a flash of sword light, and the person from the Shenwei Martial Arts Hall was decapitated with a stick and a sword." The person on the side swallowed his saliva and replied.
"How... how is this possible? Kill a master of the sixth level of body forging with one sword. Are you kidding! When did Gu Mo become so terrifying? Besides, the knife he used was not the one he was good at, but an extremely ordinary iron sword. Sword, why can it cut off the Shenwei Martial Arts Club’s standard equipment with one sword?”
Faced with this person's doubts, no one can give an answer at this time.
They were still in a daze, and the scene before them was far beyond their expectations.
They could imagine that this person was no match for Gu Mo. The seventh level of body training versus the sixth level of body training had a huge advantage.
But no one expected that the man couldn't even last a round and was killed instantly by his sword.
at the same time.
In the distance, Gu Mo said: "My young master said that anyone who dares to come close will be killed without mercy!"
As soon as the last three words came out, everyone felt a chill on their necks.
The strongest people who can come here are those at the sixth level of the body forging realm.
With lessons learned from the past, who dares not to take his words to heart.
Gu Mo could kill the person from the Shenwei Martial Arts Hall with one sword, and it didn't take much effort to kill them.
In the distance, Gu Mo glanced coldly at the people in the distance.
After confirming that they did not dare to make any more changes, they immediately turned around and went back.
