"……What's wrong?"
Hong Mingshou's first reaction was to raise his hand to touch the corner of his mouth. After checking, there was no oil stain, and then he touched his face.
Su Chen looked at Hong Mingshou with a half-smile, looked away, and clicked his tongue, "How long will it be?"
This person turned out to be the helmsman of the Tiandihui?
Will there be no one in the world?
Hong Mingshou's martial arts are good, but his brain must have been flooded, or he was born stupid.
Think about it, the first time they met, Hong Mingshou took him to Bianjing without asking, and looked at Gu Dao with enthusiasm. In fact, it sounds nice, but it's just a no-brainer.
Su Chen complained that the Tiandihui would let a person with strong limbs and a simple mind be the helmsman, and it has not been driven out by the royal family for so many years. It may be that God sees them as pitiful and can't bear it.
The two of them had enough to eat and drink, and Xiaoer had already harnessed the carriage and tidied it up.
Hong Mingshou was puzzled, and he didn't know what Su Chen was thinking. He always felt that the way he looked at him was strange, as if looking at another fool...
An hour later, the carriage was stopped. A dozen or so masked men came out of the woods and stood on the official road swaggeringly, with their swords and clubs in front of them.
The corner of Hong Mingshou's mouth twitched, he patted the restless horse, and cursed loudly: "Chen Er, are you itchy? Stop my car too!"
A few birds fluttered in the woods, the leaves fluttered, and a burly man leaned against the tree trunk and raised his head and laughed: "Master Hong is here, we have to come out to greet him anyway."
Hong Mingshou snorted: "You come out to me, did Chen Ling send a message back?"
Chen Er picked up the copper-armed long knife, smiling unabated, "Master Hong is back, and the guardian asked us to come out and lead the way."
"fart!"
Hong Mingshou flicked his right hand lightly, the whip circled in the air and swept across Chen Er's arm, leaving a whip mark with a bang.
The marks were not heavy, but they looked a little red. Chen Er rubbed them indifferently, grinning and gasping, "Master Hong is right, the Dharma protector is farting."
Hong Mingshou glared at him angrily, turned around and raised the curtain, and pointed at Su Chen shyly at Chen Er outside, "He's from the northwest branch. His name is Chen Er, Chen Ling's distant nephew, get out of the car, we're here .”
Su Chen responded lightly, got out of the car and looked around, there were masked men surrounding the carriage with all kinds of weapons, it looked a little funny.
Chen Er leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Master Hong, is he the expert that the third master said?"
Hong Mingshou thought of Su Chen's unblinking temper, and was afraid that he would hear, so he gave Chen Er a warning look. Tell him not to talk too much.
Chen Er pursed his lips, carrying a long knife and ran to the front to lead the way, turning his head from time to time to look at Su Chen.
Su Chen didn't care, he followed for a while, and saw Chen Er stopped in front of a huge willow tree, he peeled off the bark and jumped off.
Hong Mingshou was next to Su Chen, waiting for him to jump first, and observing the surroundings vigilantly. When he noticed that Su Chen was standing still, he was a little puzzled, "What's wrong?"
Su Chen patted his sleeves and pointed to the hole behind the bark. "Are you bears?"
Hong Mingshou said strangely, "This is the entrance, if you don't go here, you have to climb a mountain, and it will be midnight when you get there."
Su Chen raised his eyebrows, "Is your base the village behind the hill?"
He pointed to a not-too-high mountain in the northwest, which was bare, if viewed from the direction they came from. The mountain was not actually on their path.
However, Su Chen has already developed a memory, and within a radius of fifty miles, every plant and tree is within the scope of his consciousness.
Not to mention the stockade behind that bare mountain, even the hidden tunnels under the stockade could not escape his conscious detection.
I don't know how long the people from Tiandihui have been here. The tunnels dug extend in all directions, not only leading to the willow tree where they are now, but also leading to several other places.
Hong Mingshou was really taken aback, not to mention that Su Chen had never been to this stronghold, even for someone who has been here once, it is not easy to find it easily.
His hairs stood on end. Feeling a chill on his back, he involuntarily clasped the soft sword on his waist with his right hand, but the moment he met Su Chen's half-smiling eyes, he broke out in a cold sweat.
"...Let's go in and talk."
Hong Mingshou finally remembered Su Chen's identity. All the way here, he has been thinking about Chen Ling who stayed in Bianjing City, and he has long forgotten about this, and moved his feet lightly. He wanted to distance himself from Su Chen.
"I don't go through the tunnel," Su Chen pretended not to notice Hong Mingshou's little gesture, "I know where the exit is, and I'll wait for you there."
After finishing all this, without waiting for Hong Mingshou's reaction, he turned around and walked out of the woods. The others watched Su Chen leave, a little dazed. They stood a little far away, and didn't hear clearly what Su Chen and Hong Mingshou said.
And when the authentic Chen Er advanced, he turned around and came back because he didn't hear the movement behind him.
Su Chen walked out of everyone's sight, and did not leave immediately, but walked in the opposite direction.
After leaving the woods and walking for about a few hundred meters, Su Chen heard someone chasing after him, but he didn't look back. Just pretending not to know and walking straight.
The man chased after him, separated by a few meters, did not step forward, and followed him all the time.
After walking back and forth for a long time, it was already dark, so Su Chen found an open space and lit a fire to barbecue.
The smell of meat quickly dissipated. Su Chen turned it patiently, the fat dripped off, sparks splashed everywhere.
Just as the aroma of the meat drifted further away, the skin of the meat was golden and ready to be eaten immediately, there was a strange snoring sound, which sounded like a child hiccupping.
Su Chen remained calm, turned the barbecue, and sprinkled some seasonings from time to time, but the strange voice was getting closer and closer, and slowly came behind Su Chen.
"Want to eat?"
Su Chen spoke out suddenly, his voice seemed to have a strange feeling in the dark night.
The surroundings were very quiet, except for the occasional crackling of the flames, no one spoke.
The corner of Su Chen's mouth twitched slightly, and his fingers moved slightly. The barbecue was ready, "Oh, it's such a big piece, it's good that someone can share it."
"Gulu..."
The strange voice sounded again, Su Chen turned sideways and shook his head: "It must be very fragrant when it's hot."
The strange voice was still there, Su Chen felt that the distance was getting closer, and only a tangled face suddenly appeared.
Then, that face suddenly grinned at him, Su Chen slowly changed the direction of the barbecue, that face slammed down and hit the ground.
"puff!!"
The action of a dog eating shit, that face can no longer be seen.
At this moment, Hong Mingshou came running over, panting, "Guardian, what are you doing here?"
