C39 (1/2)
The two of them followed the caravan to the canyon. This canyon was abnormally wide and it would probably take them two or three days to get out. He was not in a hurry to follow the caravan.
It was noon, and the caravan had stopped. Many people were resting and sitting on the ground, gnawing on the dry rations that they had brought along. A maidservant in the caravan carried an exquisite dessert and entered the carriage. Hu Yan and Feiyun also stopped and sat about ten meters away from the caravan to rest.
Suddenly, the guard in the lead saw the two of them and he couldn't help but bring a few guards with him to stand in front of them. The guard leader first looked at Hu Yan and felt that Hu Yan's cultivation level was the same as his, then he shifted his gaze to Feiyun. Seeing that there was no battle qi fluctuating from his body, and seeing that both of them were only sixteen or seventeen years old, he thought that the young master of his family was out for a stroll, so he coldly said: ”What do you two mean by following our caravan?”
Feng Feiyun maintained his signature smile and didn't say anything, but Hu Yan, who was at the side, became angry when he saw the cold gazes of these people. We're just on our way. ”
”Let's hurry?” Do you need to follow us all the way? ” The leader of the guards snorted coldly.
Hu Yan's face was flushed red with anger, but he couldn't think of anything to say. At this moment, Feng Feiyun spoke.
”Could it be that your family built this road?” You can only let them leave, yet they aren't allowed to leave? ”
”Brat, what did you say?” Hearing him, the guard leader was immediately angered. Although he was only the leader of the guards, he was still considered a powerful general based on his cultivation. Usually, people would not talk to him like this.
”What is it? Am I wrong? If you can prove that this road belongs to your family, we won't take it. You're not thinking of charging me for any tolls, are you? You guys don't look like bandits? ” Feng Feiyun was a person who would never forgive others, so he continued to ridicule them.
”Kid, you are courting death!” The leader of the guards was furious and was about to go and take care of this foolish brat in front of him. However, in the face of the leader's anger, Feng Feiyun maintained his calm expression and maintained his smile. At this moment, he heard a melodious voice from inside the carriage.
”Stop!”
The guard leader was startled, he raised his fist and said to the horse carriage, ”Young miss, these two kids have unknown origins, yet they speak so arrogantly. I'm going to tie them up and hand them over to the government when we get out of the canyon! ”
”Ma Peng, don't cause trouble.” They're just on their way. ” The person in the carriage continued.
”But they have been following us.” The guard leader said.
”This valley isn't peaceful to begin with. They should just follow them!”
”This... ”Yes!” The leader of the guards cupped his hands and said to the carriage. Then, he turned his head towards the two and coldly said: ”Hmph, this little brat is good to you. With xiaojie speaking up for you, stay away from us! ” With that, he led the guards back to the caravan and instructed the others to get on their horses and continue their journey.
”You …” Hu Yan was indignant, but he was stopped by Feiyun. Seeing the group slowly drive away, Hu Yan turned his head to look at Feiyun and said: ”Young Master, they are leaving.”
”Let's go then. We'll follow them from a distance.” Feng Feiyun lightly replied.
