Chapter 52: Bandits Encountered in the Mountains
Since everyone is already companion, money is naturally not a problem. After their group returned to Red Moon Castle, the Mermaid Mercenary Guild's may have received some news and did not act rashly.
After a brief cleaning, Huigang and his companions set out on the way to Maya City. Since Fei'er got the little winged lion, she seemed to have forgotten all the unpleasant things, and she just teased the cute little lion every day. The little girl's happiness infected everyone in the team.
Although the Principality of Lanqi is not a big country, it is adjacent to the sea and connected with several rivers and empires, so the business and trade are extremely developed and very prosperous. Therefore, the monk and his group are walking on the road, and the road is not like walking in the valley. There are still some people walking on the road during the day. Henry came out to buy a few horses and hired a carriage, so Fei'er and the female elf usually stay in the carriage.
Of course Huigang will not forget that he is already Henry's master. So whenever he stops to rest halfway through, he will give me some advice on Malton and Henry.
Since Henry's strength has greatly improved, he has a little arrogant thought. He always pestered Huigang to teach him gorgeous and majestic martial arts. When he knew the training plan given to him by the monk, he couldn't help but feel sad.
The monk gave him a simple training. He was carrying a armor filled with lead blocks every day, and a heavy sword that was ten times the weight of the current great sword. He was able to contact each of the movements of stabbing, chopping, chopping, slashing, and cutting every thousand times every day.
Swordsman Henry was originally a person who was rushing to take off, so it was a bit difficult to ask him to do such boring practice. However, the monk from his previous life strictly abides by the creed of his master and disciple. Since he was admitted to him, he must be treated strictly. On the morning of the first day, Henry began to practice under his supervision. The monk did not know where to find a vine and sat quietly on the side.
In Huigang's heart, Moreton was calm and cautious in his demeanor, and his movements were standard and accurate. There was no frigid problem like swordsman Henry, so the monk directly taught a set of Dharma stick technique. Dharma stick technique is the entry-level stick technique in Shaolin. The moves are simple, but it has been obtained by countless monks in Shaolin for thousands of years. Every move is both offensive and defensive. Of course, the power changes with the depth of the user's skill. If it is used in Huigang's hands, it will naturally be like the Vajra coming to the world, with infinite power.
When he started to contact, Henry saw that he was holding a great sword that was many times heavier than before, repeating simple movements one after another. Moulton was holding an iron rod, contacting the moves there in a very cool manner. He suddenly felt a little distracted, and his hands were slowing down a few times. The swordsman also had a lucky mentality, thinking that I was wearing such heavy armor, and even if I was thrust by the vines on the monk's hand, it would not hurt there.
Thinking of this, the movements on his hands became much smaller, and as soon as he relaxed, the vine in Huigang's hand slashed over with a sharp whistling. The thickness of the leather armor wrapped in layers of lead blocks was beyond the heavy armor of the barbarian warriors. The monk's rattan was thrust on the chest with the thickest leather armor.
It was not as safe as expected. A force like a knife was uploaded from the lead block. The swordsman suddenly felt severe pain and screamed with a "ah". His body shook violently, and his posture naturally changed. He quickly thrust his second thrust and hit him hard again.
On this day, every traveler passing by was quickened, and the miserable screams of someone on the roadside scared many people.
This kind of training continues every day and the journey continues. The weight of swordsman Henry is obviously not suitable for continuing to ride a horse, and he walks along the carriage every day. Huigang doesn't show off his master's airs and walks with Malton with him.
The monk's dress was just a robe made of coarse cloth, very simple. Henry and Malton were training hard during the day, and they were just wearing warrior uniforms when they were exploring the forest. Red Moon Castle naturally couldn't hire any good carriages. No matter who saw this team, they would think that it was a few crappy mercenaries protecting a carriage.
After all, Red Moon Fort is just a small city on the border. Although it is prosperous, it is full of mercenaries. Therefore, there are not many travelers and caravans on the road connecting Maya City.
On the fifth day, Huigang and his group came down in a small village halfway and bought some supplies. There were not many people in the small village.
There are only a few small shops that provide food for passers-by, but there are not many customers.
Now Huigang, Henry and Morton are trying to practice, so Feier and the female elf Jani have taken on the task of buying food.
When two girls, one big and one small, walked down from the carriage, Fei'er was cute, and the female elf, Jiani Qingli, made everyone's eyes lit up. The female elf was not wearing the warrior's outfit, but just casual clothes. The cute wing lion was also lying in the girl's arms and napping.
I bought some bread and bacon and replenished some water. The two walked over to the monk who was practicing practicing. There were a few idle drinkers at the entrance of the tavern next to the food shop. After seeing these, they immediately noticed.
However, the monk and his party naturally did not notice this. They left this small village and went to the next village. Looking at the map, it was still about a day away, so it seemed that they could only stay. However, among these people, except Fei'er, everyone else often energized this kind of life.
At Henry's suggestion, they walked along the road for a while at night and stopped in the right place in front of them.
The night was already dark, the weather was not very good, and the moon was hidden in the thick clouds. Xiao Fei'er had already fallen asleep in the carriage, and several people lowered their voices and walked silently on the road.
The female elf, Jiani, suddenly stopped the carriage in front, turned her head and whispered to the monk:
"There are people in the woods ahead, but there seems to be no powerful characters."
Huigang stood beside him, nodded, and replied:
"There are more than a dozen people, four of them are from the small village we raised at noon."
Henry, who was listless next to him, heard this and asked with interest:
"Teacher Huigang, how did you feel it?"
“I heard the breath of four of them at noon.”
All the people present had seen the earth-shaking performance of monks when facing three giant pythons. In addition, they also have high-level skills, so they naturally would not be afraid of the threats ahead.
The female elf pretended to be unaware of it and turned on the night lights on the carriage, making the carriage more conspicuous in this night without skylight.
Morton and Henry exchanged glances with each other, and were both very excited. These days, when both of them were being guided by monks, they had many vines on their bodies, which was really painful. Today, there was such an enemy rushing up, which was just right to test their achievements in their practice.
