97. Capture the thief and capture the king first (five watches)
Ren Xiaoyao staggered to his feet, dizzy, and before he could see where Niu Dan was, he said, "Niu Dan, what are you doing?" Don't look at the road? It hurts to death. After speaking, he found that his palm was bruised, and pale green "blood" flowed out, and he remembered his body, and immediately put his palm away, looking at the cow egg lying on the ground not far away.
Niu Dan heard Ren Xiaoyao's voice in a daze, propped up his body with his right hand, stood up, looked back at Ren Xiaoyao and looked at him strangely, and hurriedly said, "Ah? Happy? Where have you been these days? Ay? What about Shiting? ”
"Oh, I went into the mountains to look for fruit, and my little sister and my little sister went with me, and then they weeded the fields after passing through the fields, yes, that's it. Hey, why are you in such a hurry? Walk without eyes. Ren Xiaoyao replied.
Niu Dan didn't have time to think about it when he heard it, and when he heard Ren Xiaoyao ask what he was doing, he remembered what he was doing, and said, "Ah? I was interrupted by you like this, I almost forgot about the business, in the afternoon, the concubine of the dead old man entered the village with the bandits, and took away the food and young girls in the village, I am going to chase them, but they seem to be looking for you, have you offended people? ”
"Huh? Are the people in the village okay? Which old man's concubine? That red apricot went out of the wall and was stripped naked and driven out of Renjia Village? And why are you looking for me? Ren Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment after listening to Niu Dan's words, and asked without knowing why.
Niu Dan raised his head, scratched his head, and said: "How do I know what those bandits are looking for you, it is the bandit brought by the Li family, the bandit only left a paragraph, telling you to come back, if you want to rescue those girls, go to the Tianshan Mountain in the east direction of the official road Xiaohe, hey, don't say it, I'll go after them." With that, he ran away like a gust of wind.
"If you want to save those girls, go to the Tianshan Mountains in the east direction of the official road and the river? Lee's? Ren Xiaoyao looked at the figure of the cow egg galloping. Talking to himself about what Niu Dan just said, he suddenly pulled his eyelids, his eyes widened, and he said, ", it won't be for my silver, right?" If that is the case, am I not a sinner? After speaking, between his eyebrows, a golden light flashed, and a maroon horse appeared in front of him, and he rode away with his left foot.
In fact, it was indeed what Ren Xiaoyao thought, the Li family, who was naked that day, walked around in a daze, walked for a day, and actually "sent" himself to the bandits' den, and after being discovered by several bandits patrolling the mountains, they did a multi-person exercise with the Li family, and then took the Li family to report to Scarface.
Scarface looked at this flower-like Li family, and immediately became animalistic, leaving Li as his own venting tool. After several unsuccessful escapes, Li finally used the news that Ren Xiaoyao had 80 taels of gold, returned his freedom, and joined the bandits. Then the incident in Renjia Village occurred.
Ren Xiaoyao rode a horse and galloped all the way, and if the speed was so fast that people couldn't see clearly, it passed in an instant, and he came to the official road Xiaohe that the bandits said, looked at the sun in the sky, distinguished the southeast and northwest, and rode to the east. But what made Ren Xiaoyao strange was that he couldn't see the cow egg all the way.
He didn't know that Niu Dan accidentally met an adult tiger because he wanted to take a shortcut, and he was in a forest at this time, entangled with an adult tiger, a man and a tiger fought in the most primitive way, and they all became wrestling masters
After several hours of running, Ren Xiaoyao used the information provided by the cow egg and the horseshoe prints and wheel prints on the ground to come to the bottom of a fifty or sixty meter high mountain, most of the hills were exposed with gray-white stones, it was a veritable stone mountain, and there were more than a dozen wooden carts parked at the foot of the mountain, as well as an ox cart.
When Ren Xiaoyao saw the ox cart, he affirmed that this was the Tianshan Mountain that the bandits said, because the ox cart was the ox cart of Niu Dan's family, and it was also the ox cart that entered the city for the first time to sit in the market. Glancing at the place where the wooden cart was parked, two bandits with big knives, one tall and one short, were guarding, and from time to time a few bandits walked down from the mountain carrying bags of sacks.
looked at the horse next to him, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and whispered to the horse: "I wronged you, Brother Ma." After saying that, he pulled the red horse, swaggered out of the woods, and walked to the place where the wooden cart was parked.
"Who? Who are you? Stop, what are you doing here? Any idea where this is? A big man heard the footsteps and saw Ren Xiaoyao walking towards them, raised the big knife in his hand, and asked Ren Xiaoyao.
Ren Xiaoyao saw the two bandits holding knives to be vigilant against themselves, pretending to be afraid, and said: "Two big brothers, I, my name is Wang Baoqiang, I am from Wangjia Village, is this the Tianshan Mountain that is famous in the whole Sunset Country?" Tianshan cottage? I'm here to run, and you see, I've bought a fine horse with all my savings, and I've come and I've come to give it to the great boss. ”
The taller bandit heard Ren Xiaoyao's boasting, swept the red horse next to Ren Xiaoyao, inadvertently became proud, and said to the slightly shorter bandit next to him: "Did you hear it, there was a stupid boy who came to our cottage." ”
turned back to Ren Xiaoyao and said: "You have a little vision, you know that this is Tianshan Cottage, okay, you can come with me, and I will take you to see the big boss." After speaking, he walked to the horse next to Ren Xiaoyao.
"Yes, yes, yes, thank you, big brother, what's your surname?" Ren Xiaoyao's eyes lit up when he heard what the bandits said, and he asked in a flattering tone.
The taller bandit heard Ren Xiaoyao's big brother on the left and big brother on the right, and the whole person was about to fly, you must know that he was just a small gatekeeper bandit, and it was not his turn to go out to burn and rob, and his heart was satisfied. Said rhetorically: "Little brother, don't call me big brother, I'm just a little leader, just call me Leader Zhang." ”
"Oh, look at my stupid mouth, but eldest brother you know that you are older than me, and you have more seniority as a bandit than me, so you should still call you eldest brother." Ren Xiaoyao glanced at the bandit who was still standing next to the wooden cart and looked at him strangely, afraid of being seen something, and continued to talk nonsense according to the words of the tall bandit, wanting the tall bandit to take him up the mountain quickly.
The tall bandit listened to Ren Xiaoyao's nonsense, his heart was already fluttering, and his eyes became more and more peaceful when he saw Ren Xiaoyao, and said to the dwarf bandit who stayed in more than a dozen wooden carts: "Dafa, I will take this little brother up the mountain to see the big boss, you watch here first, and I will come back immediately." After saying that, he pulled Ren Yao's horse and walked towards the mountain.
Ren Xiaoyao hurriedly sent a message to the horses, otherwise the horses would not follow the bandits, and the previous appearance might be in vain. The reason why I want to go up the mountain is to capture the thief and capture the king first, otherwise it will be in vain to threaten Scarface with hostages to the one who has never seen each other.
Along the way, Ren Xiaoyao followed the tall bandits up the mountain, did the bandits tell Ren Xiaoyao some precautions, listen to Ren Xiaoyao sweating, don't look at such an ordinary mountain, it turns out that there are many hidden traps. There are also so-called "Shenlong" Zhenshan Divine Beasts.
Walking to the top of the mountain, Ren Xiaoyao saw a wooden gate, on both sides there was a simple wooden house similar to a sentry, and there was a plaque on the gate with the words of the crooked word I don't know which planet, anyway, Ren Xiaoyao didn't know it.
Before Ren Xiaoyao entered the door, he was swept by two bandits with tall oxen and horses, and only then did he enter the door, and saw a clearing, few people walking around in the clearing, and some people were slashing with big knives, and there were many cave entrances on the side, did anyone still walk out and walk in. If the bandits who practiced knife skills heard Ren Xiaoyao say that they were slashing with big knives, I don't know what would happen?
The tall bandit led Ren Xiaoyao to a hole that was bigger than the other cave doors, turned back to Ren Xiaoyao and said, "You wait here first, I'll go in and tell the big boss that he is taking you in." With that, he played with the biggest hole and walked in.
Ren Xiaoyao's eyes squinted at this so-called bandit cottage, and he didn't see any Zhenshan Divine Beasts, and looked back carefully at the bandits walking around in the clearing. The bandits also looked at Ren Xiaoyao from time to time, and the atmosphere was very strange
At this time, in a forest outside the village, the cow eggs were covered with blood, the clothes were tattered, and a long and wide scar was exposed on the right arm, revealing vague flesh and blood, and white bones could be faintly seen from the flesh. There was also a dead tiger on the ground next to the egg, also with red blood all over its hair.
Niu Dan panted and glanced at the tiger on the ground, and said to himself: "Beasts are beasts, and Lao Tzu has been delayed for so long." After saying that, he didn't care about the wounds on his body, looked at the tiger corpse with his uninjured left hand and disappeared into the woods
At this time, Ren Xiaoyao had already entered the cave, looking at the environment of the cave along the way. The walls of the cave are made of uneven grayish-white stone, which, judging by the uneven stone walls, should have been carved out by hand.
Inside the cave, a five-meter torch illuminates the walking path. After walking about 30 meters, I saw a hall of about 150 square meters, with many wooden tables and chairs in the hall, and many hemp bags on the stone walls on both sides
Ren Xiaoyao looked carefully at the scar man lying on the stone, and saw the obvious scar on the scar man's face from the side. Ren Xiaoyao glanced at the black-robed man's scar, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and the middle finger of his right hand flashed with white light
