Chapter 225: Golden Bald Head
This winter, it's colder than ever.
There is very little snow in Guangdong, but this year, in the middle of the month, goose feathers have been drifting in the middle of the month, until after the end of the year, this snow has not stopped.
The Nanling Mountains are the largest mountain range in northern Guangdong, and the "Wild Boar Ridge" is a small mountain peak at the northern end of the Nanling Mountains, and the valley under the peaks is called "Pig Tail Gorge".
There are primeval forests on all sides, the mountains are high and dense, and the valley is a very dark place. But now a heavy snowfall has turned everything silvery white, and even though it is dusk and the sky is getting dark, the valley is still quite bright.
The golden bald head stood in front of a boulder in the valley, one foot on the stone, and at his feet were two Xuanhua plate axes about the size of a millstone. The shape of these two axes is really a bit scary, and they weigh dozens of pounds to say the least.
The golden bald head was more than eight feet tall, with a bearded face, but there was not a single hair on the top of his head, and his face was very fierce. He was draped in an animal skin cloak, with a wide open front placket, revealing palm-wide heart hair, and fluttering snowflakes fell on his chest, instantly turning into steaming heat.
Except for the bald head, there was no place in his body that looked like a Zen practitioner. In fact, not only was he not a compassionate monk, but a robber who killed people like grass.
Jin Guangtoutuo's original name is Jinda, and the so-called "Toutuo" is just his nickname, and the meaning of the word "Jinguang" is to describe his style of acting. As long as the golden bald head makes a move, any fat sheep will be robbed!
There are more than 50 brothers under Jinda's command, and they have occupied this "wild boar ridge" for many years. At this time, these brothers were all lying in ambush in this valley, and they were waiting for a big fat sheep to come to the door.
Jin Guangtou Tuo is really lucky today.
Today is the eighth day of the first lunar month, and Jin Daben is drinking wine and eating meat in the cottage, and only orders a few minions to do business in front of the valley.
This is not an official road, and there are not many merchants passing by, not to mention that it is a big year, and the population is even more scarce. During the whole day, the younger brothers only made two deals, and the robbers were all villagers who came and went to visit relatives, and there was very little oil and water, and it was better than nothing. However, the real good fortune was behind, and in the evening, the line eye outside the valley came back to report that a caravan had arrived from the north, with a total of thirteen carts!
Jinda immediately made a decision, and asked someone to investigate again, and he himself took up the axe, ordered the brothers and rushed down the mountain, and set up an ambush in the valley, just waiting for a big vote.
At this moment, I saw a figure appear from the road in the distance, and rushed to the front, but it was the minion sent to investigate before.
"Big brother, they're coming, only three miles from the valley mouth!" said the minion, panting.
Jinda said: "How many people are there?"
"Thirteen cars, plus those who drove the cars, about thirty people, and more than ten horsebacks. ”
"Do you see what flag is planted on the car, but there is a dart game?" asked Jinda again.
"The yellow flag that seems to be 'Dingyuan Firm' was inserted in the car, and I didn't see the number of the dart bureau. The minion replied that Jinda nodded, waved his hand and said, "You go down!"
A caravan of thirteen carts, of course, will not be unguarded, more than thirty people are not much, and there is no dart bureau number, these people must be just their own hands in the business, and their martial arts must not be too high.
It seems that today's fat sheep is settled.
Thinking of this, Jinda smiled evilly, picked up the two big axes under his feet, and shrank into the woods beside the road.
The sky was dark, goose feathers were flying, and the sky and the earth were already a vast color. The valley was silent, the snow fell silently, only a few beast howls came from afar, and no one could tell that there were dozens of bandits in ambush here.
It didn't take long for the first cart to appear at the entrance to the valley, followed by the second, then the third, the dark shadows, and the convoy of the Dingyuan Merchant had arrived.
The sound of human voices was faintly heard, and the sound of bells, the whipping of horses, the wheezing and neighing of horses, and the sound of carts crushing against the snow.
All I could hear was someone shouting, "Be careful, don't let the wheels get stuck in the mud!"
The man who shouted this was an old man on horseback, wearing a cotton hat and a leather jacket, with a clear face and a goatee, who seemed to be the leader of the caravan. There were more than a dozen horses in front of and behind the old man, and the knights on the horses were all carrying swords on their backs, all of whom were the guards of the convoy.
"Pig Tail Gorge" is not long, from the mouth of the valley to the bottom of the valley, there are only miles before and after. The convoy was moving very fast, and in an instant it was all in the middle of the valley, and the first cart was in the middle of the valley.
At this moment, I saw a loud "bang", and the cart had fallen into a big pit with the horses and horses!
At the same time, dozens of bamboo poles catapulted out of the woods, stabbing down three horses, and at the sound of the bowstring, dozens of flying arrows were shot, and several more people were wounded!
People shouted and neighed, and the convoy on the road suddenly became a mess!
"There's an ambush!Everyone, beware of hidden weapons!" the old man with a goatee on his horse cried out in a loud voice, and had reached out and pulled out his waist knife.
He rode forward to the front cart to see what was going on, but the horse under his crotch suddenly tripped over a thick rope, and immediately lost his front hooves and went straight forward!
There's a tripwire hidden in the snow!
The other knights were not more fortunate than this old man, four or five tripwires bounced together, and seven or eight hooked sickles poked out, and in a moment, more than a dozen mounts fell down one after another, and several horses' hooves were cut off by sharp hooks and sickles, and only two or three knights on horseback remained.
And the bandits who were lying in ambush in the woods had rushed to the road screaming wildly, picking up their weapons and slashing them!
The general underworld cottage robbery road will often fire arrows to block the way first, reappear to negotiate with the caravan or dart shop, collect the money to buy the road and will be released, and only when it is really impossible to negotiate, will they start fighting. The gang of bandits with golden bald heads is different, as long as they rob them, they will rob them, and they will not collect money and let them go at all.
The old man with a goatee rolled off his horse and fell into the snow, but he was so agile that he rose to his feet with a single roll.
He saw that dozens of bandits had rushed towards the convoy, and shouted loudly: "Friends on the road, slow down! We have a letter from the leader of the Leng Alliance of the Guangdong Realm Alliance here, don't hurt the peace!"
It's just that the group of bandits didn't care what he shouted, and they pounced one by one, and immediately fought with the guards in the convoy!
Thirty against fifty, several people were injured by bows and arrows, and the guards of the caravan were few and weak, and immediately fell into the downwind, and in an instant, two more people were cut down, and a little blood splashed out and sprinkled on the silver-white snow!
Seeing that the situation was not good, the old man with the goatee could no longer shout, and he also waved his sword to join the warband.
Among the caravans, the strongest martial arts was the old man with a goatee, only to see him dance the steel knife in his hand into a ball of white light, slashing left and right, forcing the five or six bandits around him to retreat again and again, and suddenly with a scream, he cut the arm of another bandit!
The bandits' rush and killing were not in order, but they rushed over like a swarm of bravery, cutting down people when they saw them, and the convoy was in a hurry to meet the enemy, and they didn't have time to line up any defensive formation, and they also fought on their own. This kind of brawl fighting, of course, is the advantage of the side with more people, although the old man with a goatee is not weak, and one person resists several bandits, but it is also difficult to support alone, and he can't change the situation.
But at this moment, in the midst of the loud shouts, an eight-zhang tall black shadow jumped in front of the old man, the blade slashed the wind, and a huge axe slashed straight at his head!
Seeing that his minions couldn't clean up this old man with a goatee, the golden bald head had decided to take action himself!
Only a crisp sound was heard, and the steel knife and the plate axe exchanged several blows, which shook the old man's arm with a goatee and cracked the tiger's mouth.
Jinda is tall and strong, the strength is amazing, and the axe method is even more extraordinary, called "whirlwind axe technique", which is said to be the martial arts used by Li Kui, the hero of Liangshan during the Northern Song Dynasty. This axe method relies on great strength and bravery, and it is difficult for opponents to resist when they are unleashed to incur death.
After fighting for a while, there was a loud bang, and the steel knife in the old man's hand was slashed by Jinda's plate axe, and he couldn't hold it anymore, so he flew out of his hand, and Jinda raised a kick and kicked the old man in the chest, kicking him upside down, hitting the carriage, breaking the wheels, and then falling on the snow. The bandits on the side immediately grabbed it and grabbed the old man's neck with a sharp blade.
The old man with the goatee was defeated, and the remaining knight guards were even more vulnerable, and several more were slashed, and the rest abandoned their swords and surrendered, and some were forcibly restrained by the bandits.
In this robbery battle in the snow, the time of a pillar of incense was over, and the bandits of the golden bald head Tuo won a complete victory!
Jin Da was proud, and walked to the front of the big cart that had been damaged, handed the plate axe to his left hand, and reached into the car with his right hand to touch it, and grabbed a handful of white rice, which turned out to be carrying grain.
Although grain is not as valuable as gold and silver, it is a good thing in troubled times. These dozen carts were loaded with at least 100 stone of rice, which was enough for the brothers in the cottage to eat for a year and a half.
The old man with a goatee turned pale and shouted: "This cart is loaded with disaster relief food transferred by the good people of Nanao Town, and the Leng Alliance Master of the Guangdong Border Alliance has already been killed, you must not be doomed!"
At this time, the old man was already regretting his intestines, and he regretted that he did not take the official road, but he coveted to reduce his trip by a few days, and chose this Nanling Mountain Road to walk.
Jinda listened to the old man's words, but his brows were furrowed.
Chai Dashan in Nanao Town, surnamed Chai Minglin, can be regarded as a celebrity in Guangdong. This person's ancestors are rich businessmen, in the Ming Dynasty province opened a number of money village silver number, it is said that the family wealth is rival the country, in the early years he also had a lift, and is willing to give, only to be known as a good person. And the old man said that the leader of the Leng Alliance is even more famous, and everyone knows it in the underworld in Guangdong.
Because the so-called Leng Alliance Leader is the leader of the Guangdong Underworld Alliance, known as the Leng Lianshan of the "Tyrant Sword Lianshan".
