"ambush?!"
Li Changan was shocked. Could it be that the old monk went back on his word?
But then he realized that he was overthinking it. The scream lasted for too long, and it was clearly coming from a distance. When it reached him, it was the end of the force. It was more of a hello than an attack.
Li Changan gently lifted the scabbard, and the object that came through the air was bounced away and landed on the top door of the big green donkey.
He took a closer look and saw an... iron bead resting on a tuft of swirling mane?
well! My head hurts.
As soon as he blinked, a handsome lion stepped out from the road, leaning on the horse with a smile... well, let's call him a young man.
"Taoist, I heard that you are going to Qi County?"
Lion Cong approached with small steps. Besides Feifei, there was also a large bag of luggage on the horse, which made the horse's steps a little heavy.
Why do you look like you're going on a long trip? Li Changan felt a little bad, so he just nodded perfunctorily.
"I also want to go to Qi County." Feifei was a little lost in thought, staring at the void ahead, "My father still refused to admit me, always saying that I was too incompetent and had too little experience. I went to Qi County this time just for that. The fairy shuttle in the hand of "The Weaver Girl"..."
Halfway through the words, Li Changan became more and more dissatisfied as he listened. He hurriedly raised his hand.
"In that case, I wish you success, and we will meet again if we have the chance."
When Li Changan said "goodbye", he had already ridden a hundred steps on his donkey. He turned around and saw that Feifei was still standing there.
He just breathed a sigh of relief when suddenly he heard the sound of rapid horse hooves.
The lion's mane was flying, and after a few breaths, he was keeping pace with the big green donkey.
"Oh." Li Changan knocked the donkey on the head, "Why don't you run faster, you stupid donkey?"
"Are the Taoists going to race horses with me?" Feifei was riding on a tall horse, looking down at Li Changan on the donkey's back, "How about I let you take a few more steps?"
"Oh." He hit the donkey's head again, "Why don't you grow taller, you stupid donkey?"
"Ah uh..."
The big green donkey screamed in grievance and looked at its owner with its big eyes, clearly saying:
"Master Tao, I'm just a donkey!"
……………………
"Young Master, if you want to go to Qi County, just go." Li Changan was a little helpless, "Why should you follow me, a wild Taoist priest?"
Feifei just followed silently on horseback. After a long time, he spoke, but his answer was wrong.
"My father didn't like me learning from him since I was little, but I liked it, and I learned quickly. One day, my father told me that he wanted to retire, and I told him that I wanted to be a thief, a world-famous thief! He wouldn't allow it. , I just refused to obey, so he found many people, trying to get me to retreat, but those people were no match for me!"
When Feifei said this, he raised his chin, almost as proud as a bird with its tail open.
"Until my father's most powerful second uncle lost to you, I knew that he would definitely ask you to compete with me. At that time, I was not worried, only happy, thinking that as long as I beat you, my father would change his mind..." Feifei turned around and said in a low voice: "Taoist priest, did I win?"
"You win." Li Changan nodded casually. He didn't care about the outcome, and he was not interested in the villainous parents of the bandit family.
"But my father said that I can't win with force, but doesn't winning mean winning?"
Feifei looked at Li Changan with misty eyes.
Li Changan just smiled and didn't answer.
This reaction made him angry. He swung his riding crop suddenly, and a crisp sound exploded in the air. Li Changan and Daqing Donkey had no reaction, but Lion Cong almost stuck his hooves in fright.
Feifei hurriedly comforted his mount, and when he looked over, Li Changan looked like he was leisurely watching a show, and suddenly he became very angry.
"You... let's fight again!"
Li Changan still didn't answer, he still just smiled. That smile was particularly hateful in Feifei's eyes.
"Qiang."
He drew the sword from his waist.
"Yesterday, I lost... You did have the upper hand in swordsmanship, but it was just because your sword was longer than mine. This sword is seven inches longer than the sword I used yesterday and three inches longer than your sword. This time I You will definitely be convinced that you lost!"
Feifei held the sword horizontally in front of him. The sword's light was flowing like autumn water. It was indeed a rare and good sword.
It's a pity that the sword competition is not a Ding Ding competition. There is no way to judge the superiority by length. Moreover, when a swordsman uses a sword, he must determine the length of the sword based on his body's arm span, and he must have a clear understanding of the sword's length and center of gravity.
Feifei was also dizzy with anxiety and changed his sword in a hurry. It was impossible to win, but he would lose faster.
Li Changan shook his head, not bothering to elaborate with him, and urged the donkey to leave.
…………………………
God's face is always changing at the drop of a hat.
The pouring rain fell from the sky without any warning, forming a heavy rain curtain and locking people in the small shed.
"It's all you! If you don't take the main road, you have to take the side road! There's not even a place to hide from the rain along the way."
Who asked you to follow? Now you blame me?
Li Changan muttered to himself and took off his soaked top.
Since Feifei shamelessly followed him, Li Changan simply took the trail and walked into the desert. I thought that if I let Feifei realize the hardship of traveling, he would stop thinking about it, at least he would not follow me anymore.
Who knows, Feifei didn't change his mind, but God was caught off guard.
The two of them were on the mountain road, but they couldn't find any tiles to cover themselves. They were soaked in the rain for half an hour before they found such a thatched hut.
Li Changan hung up his robe to dry and turned his head. Feifei huddled in the corner with his back to him, his arms wrapped around him as if he was trembling slightly. And his huge luggage was lying aside, but he had no intention of opening it.
Li Changan knew this very well.
"Maybe we'll spend the night in this house tonight, and I'll go find some firewood."
After saying that, he found a raincoat that was about to fall apart, put it on him and walked into the rain.
The moment he went out, Feifei turned his face slightly, and the yellow color seemed to be much lighter.
……………………
About half an hour.
The rain became lighter, but the sky became a little darker.
Li Changan returned to the hut with the dead branches he picked up. As soon as he entered the door, he was greeted by a sharp sword light!
He hurriedly threw all the dead branches over, but with just a flicker of the sword light, all the dead branches were chopped into pieces.
In this short moment, Li Changan already had the sword in his hand!
He frowned and looked over. Feifei put on a refreshing outfit and looked over provocatively.
"What are you doing?"
"I said we wanted to compete again. Now that we are trapped by the mountain rain, what else can we do but compete with swords?"
Say it, Feifei has already extended his sword and attacked.
This sword is indeed a good sword. Everywhere it passes, tables, chairs, walls, and pillars are like a hot knife cutting through butter, without any sluggishness.
Li Changan shouted repeatedly: "Stop! Stop...be careful!"
He was not worried about himself. Although Feifei's sword was a good sword, the sword in Li Changan's hand was also made of modern steel.
The reason why he was slightly panicked was entirely because of the shed.
This shed was probably used by hunters or woodcutter for repairs in the mountains. It has been abandoned for a long time, and many of the supporting frames in the house are rotten.
Feifei is so careless and chopping...
"Click..."
Amidst the continuous noises, the shed shook like a drunkard, first twice, and then collapsed!
………………
Feifei, with his head full of scraps of grass, emerged from the wreckage of the shed together with his lion.
A cheerful donkey brayed in my ears.
He looked over angrily and saw Li Changan holding the big green donkey and standing under the tree, still wearing a raincoat.
Just now, when the house collapsed, Li Changan and his donkey rushed out when they saw that the situation was not good, not forgetting to take away the Taoist robes that had been hung up to dry.
Looking back at myself...
Feifei patted the grass residue off his head, raised his sword, and prepared to attack again.
Li Changan quickly waved his hand.
"Wait a minute."
He pointed to the low dark clouds in the sky.
"Why don't you find a place to take shelter from the rain first?"
"What else are you looking for?" Feifei wiped his face, his hands were covered with rainwater and grass clippings, "Isn't there a ready-made land there?"
Feifei raised his hand and pointed, but it was a small village at the foot of the mountain.
When the two of them were looking for shelter from the rain, they actually saw this village first, but Li Changan stood quietly at the intersection for a moment and then looked for this hut without looking back.
Feifei is quite dissatisfied with this and is going to that village now.
When Li Changan heard this, he said somewhat meaningfully: "There is no one in that village."
"Isn't it just right that there's no one around?" Feifei was puzzled.
Li Changan looked at him, pondered for a moment, and rubbed the short beard on his chin.
"good."
He should also be taught that bandits and officials are not the only ones who cannibalize people in this world.
