Qin Yu had already been driving the ox cart for two days.
During the day, they could always find a relay station or inn to rest at dusk.
Xi Shi and Zheng Dan were both very curious and felt that their luck was too good.
In fact, it was Qin Yu's Beauty Map system that helped him navigate. That was why he could plan the route so cleverly. There would definitely not be a situation of sleeping in the open.
On the third day, they were getting closer and closer to Gouwu County.
The ox-cart walked through a mountainous forest. A small path passed through the forest, and there were few pedestrians.
[Warning!] There are bandits ahead. Please be careful, Master.”
Qin Yu stops the ox-cart. If he were to walk through here alone with his sword, it would not be a problem.
However, with Xi Shi and Zheng Dan by his side, it would be a little troublesome.
"What's wrong, Young Master? Why did you stop?”Xi Shi and Zheng Dan were puzzled.
Qin Yu smiled and said,"I feel that this road is not safe. Let's change our route."”
Just as Qin Yu turned the ox cart around and was about to turn back.
He suddenly felt that something was wrong. The system had been planning the route very well these two days. Why did they encounter bandits today?
Could the system have malfunctioned again?
"System, are you trying to trick me again? Tell me why you chose this path.”Qin Yu asked in his heart.
"My dear master, please don't ridicule me." The System Elf replied weakly. The system had predicted that there would be fortuitous encounters here and that there would be no hidden dangers, so it had chosen this path.”
"Oh? Had a fortuitous encounter?" Qin Yu became somewhat interested. He turned the ox cart around again and took the mountain forest road again.
Xi Shi and Zheng Dan were confused by Qin Yu's actions. They asked curiously,"Young Master, didn't you say that this forest doesn't look safe? Why are you taking this path again?"
Qin Yu smiles and says: 'Don't be afraid. I've just used my mind to divine. Although this place is slightly dangerous, it will definitely be able to turn danger into safety. Moreover, there will be unexpected gains.”
Xi Shi and Zheng Dan were both surprised." Young Master, you're really amazing! I know everything!"
"When you're outside, you have to have more tricks up your sleeve.”Qin Yu smiled and then continued to let the ox pull the carriage. He slowly passed through the forest.
The mountain forest was unusually quiet, and the birds chirped quietly.
After walking for the time it takes to make a cup of tea, Qin Yu suddenly hears some sounds. They seem to be shouts and the sound of metal clashing against metal.
"Yi Guang, Zheng Er, did you hear the sound?”Qin Yu asked.
Xi Shi and Zheng Dan nodded and said nervously,""Young Master, are there bandits in this forest? Are we really going to walk down?”
"Don't be afraid. Listen carefully. All you hear are the screams of killing, but there are no shouts of joy.”Qin Yu asked calmly.
Xi Shi lowered her head in embarrassment and said,""Young master, Yi Guang is stupid and can't guess.”
Zheng Dan guessed," There should be people fighting, and one side has an obvious advantage while the other side is suffering a crushing defeat."”
"That's right." Qin Yu added,"Moreover, the party that will suffer a crushing defeat will definitely be the bandits of this mountain forest."”
"Young Master, why are you so sure? Is there any reason behind this?" Xi Shi asked.
Qin Yu says unhurriedly: 'Think about it. Bandits are all refugees who have not received any military training. If they had won, they would definitely have rejoiced and shouted loudly. But now, there are only screams. It must be that the bandits in this forest have been defeated.”
"That makes sense. Young Master is smart.”Xi Shi understood.
At this moment, the screams became weaker and weaker, and the system sent a notification.
"Warning lifted. The bandits are fleeing. Master, please proceed boldly.”
Hearing the system's notification, Qin Yu was even more relieved. He pulled the reins of the carriage and slightly increased its speed.
Soon, they arrived at the lowest point of the road.
The surrounding area was filled with lush forests, making it very suitable for ambushing passing merchants.
At this moment, on this low-lying flat ground, there were wails everywhere. Dozens of men were lying on the ground, crying bitterly and crying for their parents. All kinds of " weapons " were scattered around them. Most of these weapons were actually farm tools, which further proved that the bandits here were refugees.
At this moment, a 8 chi tall brawny man was running toward Qin Yu with a saber in hand.
Of course, he was not here to attack Qin Yu. Instead, he was here to flee for his life. He was fleeing for his life at lightning speed!
However, at this moment, a long sword shot from behind and grazed the brawny man's head, cutting off his ear.
The long sword lands in front of Qin Yu's ox cart. However, the ox pulling the cart is not frightened at all. It is even calmly eating the weeds by the roadside.
Qin Yu had specially bought this ox with a large sum of money. It was said that it had once charged into the battlefield of the war between Wu and Yue. It was also an old ox that had seen the world. A sword really could not scare it.
The muscular man whose ear had been cut off immediately turned around and knelt down. He covered his bleeding ear and begged,"Spare me, Heroine! Spare me!"
"You guys are really too useless. Dozens of grown men were defeated in just a few moves. It seems that my swordsmanship won't improve much from you guys.”" All of you, scram!" the heroine said in a bored tone." You're not allowed to be bandits and harm the people in the future. Otherwise, if I see you again, I'll definitely kill all of you!"”
These bandits all had a common injury, which was their ears. Some had their earlobes cut off, while others had their entire ears cut off. It looked a little cruel.
However, if these bandits were caught by the government, the punishment would not be any better than cutting off their ears.
"Thank you for sparing my life, thank you for sparing my life.”Dozens of bandits bowed their heads in gratitude and fled in a hurry.
Only at this moment does Qin Yu carefully look at the appearance of this heroine.
Weak, small, flat.
This was Qin Yu's first impression. This heroine was wearing tight clothes that bound her body. She was small and wore a veil, so her exact appearance could not be seen clearly. However, she was not tall. At most, she was about 1.5 meters tall and reached Qin Yu's chest.
It was probably a loli whose body had not yet grown, between the ages of ten to sixteen.
The system sent a notification.
"Congratulations, Master, you have unlocked the side mission: Yue Girl Love Fate."
"There are virgins from the Southern Forest. His swordsmanship is natural and unparalleled."
"This woman is currently thirteen years old and is proficient in sword arts. A few years later, her sword arts will reach perfection and become known as the divine sword. She will teach the soldiers of the King of Yue, Gou Jian, the art of the sword and halberd, and help the Yue destroy the Wu.”
"However, this woman's swordsmanship has yet to be mastered and needs to be honed. Master can teach her swordsmanship.”
PS: The virgin's virginity was actually the third tone. The author had read it wrong before.
