The person in the carriage was silent for a moment before saying,""I know Sima Lei. He has always been extremely respectful to me and would never make such an obvious mistake for no reason. Moreover, the sect has already sent an order to him. I believe that there must be something else that no one knows about. Immediately release three Fire Lightning Arrows and send out a signal to summon the five of them here to report!”
The thick-browed Zhong Wu respectfully replied,"This child obeys! I'll go get the Fire Thunder Arrows now."
Before he could finish his words, he turned around and strode to the side of his blood-red horse. He stretched out a large hand and hurriedly took something from the leather pouch on the saddle.
The thick eyebrowed man, Zhong Wu, spoke to his father in a voice that wasn't loud, but it wasn't soft either. Even though they were fifty to sixty feet away, it was not particularly difficult for Jiang Yuntian, who had practiced martial arts for many years, to hear this voice. When he first heard the name Sima Lei and the nickname of the Five Vicious of the Desert, his heart could not help but palpitate.
If his memory wasn't wrong, he clearly remembered that the old man with the surname Mu riding the camel had told him clearly that the five bandits he had killed were the famous "Five Rapscallions of the Desert" in the Wild Sand Ridge. Among them, there was a thin man who wore a bearskin cloak and wielded a pair of fine steel judge pens. His name was Sima Lei.
As he thought of all these, he immediately recalled that the old man surnamed Mu had once said that the Five Rapscallions of the Desert had a powerful master behind them. When he said that, even the old man surnamed Mu, who had peerless martial arts skills, revealed a solemn expression on his face. From this speculation, he immediately had a clear and basic understanding of the identity of the person in the golden car.
At least one thing could be confirmed now, and that was that the person in the carriage was definitely not a popular first-class official in the officialdom. It was most likely a powerful figure in the underworld. As for who this person was? Which powerful force was this person leading? This was not something he could guess.
These messy thoughts were quite a lot, but in fact, these thoughts only flashed across his mind like lightning.
The thick-browed youth, Zhong Wu, swiftly took out an object from the deerskin pouch on the side of the horse's body. In the dark, there was not enough light. Because Jiang Yuntian was far away, he could not see clearly what the thick-browed youth, Zhong Wu, was holding. It looked a little blurry, and he could only roughly make out the shape. From the shape, it seemed to be a long cylindrical household item.
The thick-browed youth, Zhong Wu, held it in his hand and raised it into the air. Then, a " pop " sound came from the long tube. Before the sound faded, a bright red flame shot out. The end of the flame brought a trail of sparks. It looked like the fireworks that people played in the first month of the year, but it shot higher and faster than the fireworks.
In the dark night, this extremely eye-catching flame shot thousands of feet into the sky before it stopped. It kept rising vertically in the air. During the process of rising, it continuously emitted incomparably loud explosions. It maintained this for a long time before it gradually disappeared.
As soon as he finished one, the thick-browed youth Zhong Wu shot out two more in succession before carefully storing the launcher.
Out of consideration for his own safety, Jiang Yuntian did not want to get too close to them. Moreover, he was afraid that the Dusk Stallion he had painstakingly obtained would accidentally get lost. Taking advantage of the signal sent by the thick-browed youth Zhong Wu, he quietly walked to the side of his beloved horse, Dusk Stallion, who was grazing in the distance. He nimbly flipped over and rode on the horse.
Riding on the horse, he looked at the golden carriage again. Because he was at a much higher position, even though the distance was further than before, he felt that he could see it more clearly than before. Climbing high, you can see far.
Moreover, there was another great advantage to observing while sitting on the Dusk Stallion. Once he discovered that the situation was unfavorable, Jiang Yuntian could quickly leave at any time. With the outstanding speed of this one in ten thousand Dusk Stallion, it was likely that no one present had the ability to catch up to him. With such ease, a layer of worry and concern was removed from his heart. Therefore, he was happy to pretend to be a leisurely bystander and watch this group of people from afar to see what would happen in a while.
After the signal was sent out, no one spoke again. The scene was silent for a while. Only a few animals kept snorting and the sound of the animals 'hooves were heard. The night wind whistled, setting off the sky and the winding stream. The atmosphere at the scene seemed to have an indescribable murderous atmosphere.
The person in the golden carriage seemed to have nothing else to ask. He didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, the siblings on the horses seemed to be impatient. The long-haired girl would occasionally turn her head and glance at Jiang Yuntian's face. It seemed like she was inadvertently glancing at him, but her gaze was no longer as fierce as before.
On the other side of the stream was the desert. It was also in the direction where Jiang Yuntian had first ridden his horse. Under the silver moonlight, the desert was faintly glowing with scales.
Further away, at the intersection of heaven and earth, there was a long arc-shaped dividing line. It was purple-gray in color, and at some point, there was a steaming colorful qi. The colorful qi seemed to be moving slowly towards the stream. You would find that the scenery in the colorful qi was too beautiful. It was like a dream, making people forget the secular world. The scenery in the colorful qi should be the legendary "mirage".
The atmosphere was extremely quiet and beautiful. Suddenly, a loud and sonorous neighing of a horse came from afar, completely destroying this rare silence and beauty!
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a cloud of gray sand rising from the desert in the distance. From the gray sand came the sound of horse hooves that sounded like drums. The sound of hooves grew louder and closer. A moment later, two fast horses emerged from the gray sand and leaped out of the desert, speeding toward the stream.
In the blink of an eye, the two riders were already in front of them. The two men on the horses did not wait for their mounts to stop. They hurriedly got off their saddles and ran towards the golden colored carriage with fear and panic on their faces.
One of them, a man with a full beard, bowed deeply to the siblings on the horse and said respectfully with a trembling voice,"Sect Master's golden carriage has arrived. We were late to welcome you, so we deserve to die. Young Sect Master and Young Miss please give us a chance!”
As they spoke, the two men who had just rolled off their horses fell to their knees with a thud and kowtowed a few times. Their foreheads immediately turned red, as if they were about to bleed.
Immediately, the thick-browed youth Zhong Wu said emotionlessly,""Why didn't the Banner Lord of the fifth banner, Sima Lei, and his brothers come with you?”
