Chapter 80: The Outlaw Chen Chong
Chapter 80: The Outlaw Chen Chong
Nothing to say all night, the next morning.
Wang Baoqiang was tempted to wake up by the smell of grilled fish. When he opened his eyes, he found that the strange boy from last night had washed the gray and black on his face, and his clothes were not as filthy as yesterday's, obviously a different outfit.
At this time, the young man was sitting on a stone next to him, with a branch inserted, and a grass carp weighing more than two catties was roasting on the fire.
"Thank you for your rescue!" the young man saw that he was awake, and hurriedly saluted him and thanked him.
Wang Baoqiang, who had just woken up, looked at the rejuvenated young man in front of him, and was still a little dazed, and did not answer him for a while.
"My name is Chen Chong, I don't know how to honor Engong?"
"My name is Wang Baoqiang, and you don't have to be called Engong. Wang Baoqiang sat up and slapped the grass clippings that had fallen on his body at some point.
"Thank you, Brother Wang, I have to be rescued by you, otherwise I would ......"
"It's okay... It's okay... I was also passing by last night, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to save you. ”
"Did you see everything that happened last night?" the young man who called himself Chen Chong finished speaking, his face suddenly changed, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
It was a look that surpassed his peers, and there was a killing intent in it.
This killing intent was not very strong, but it was enough to make Wang Baoqiang feel shocked, and his body couldn't help but retreat a little.
Chen Chong remained silent, put the grilled fish upside down next to the fire, turned his hand from behind his waist, and felt out something.
The thing was small and delicate, with a peculiar shape, and at the front was three copper pipes of equal thickness, arranged together in a triangular shape, with a piece of iron sheet at the front and back, and they were tightly tied to a section of streamlined wooden drag.
These three copper pipes are not long, about six or seven inches, and there is a section behind them, which is slightly thicker than the three copper pipes combined.
Looking at the place where they are connected, there is not a trace of it, it should be a special refining technique.
This is nothing, what is even more strange is that this section is only three inches of large copper pipe, it has different specifications of hollows on the top, the tail is two copper buckles that are buckled against each other, similar to impact, and below is a streamlined handle, and a small curved hook more than an inch long is installed at the fold between the handle and the large copper pipe......
Overall, it looks like a much smaller copper **, but without a bow and strings.
At this time, the nozzles of the three copper pipes were facing Wang Baoqiang, which made him inexplicably flustered and a little overwhelmed for a while.
He didn't know what it was, and what was the use?
"It's called the Triple Handcuff, and it's an excellent assassination weapon. Wang Baoqiang's facial expression, the young man Chen Chong saw it in his eyes, pondered for a while, and he said the name of the thing.
"Assassination weapon?" Wang Baoshan was even more shocked when he heard that thing was an assassination weapon, thinking back to the voice he heard last night and the mysterious flames he saw, it was difficult for him to connect them together.
"Haven't you seen the fire gun?" Chen Chong saw that he didn't know, the killing intent in his eyes dimmed, and his tone softened a little.
"I haven't seen it... I've seen a lot of weapons, but I've never seen anything like it. Wang Baoshan nodded, saying that it was the first time he had seen this kind of weapon.
"You're a local, so it's understandable that you don't know. Chen Chong said, putting away what he called the triple handcuff and inserting it into a leather pocket that he hung around his waist.
"You're not a local?" Wang Baoshan couldn't help but be a little puzzled when he heard him say this.
"Well, I'm here in Aikawa. ”
"Really? You're here in the capital......
Chen Chong nodded and did not speak.
"The national capital is so far away, why did you come to Guanping City?" Wang Baoshan couldn't help but be a little curious when he saw the people from the national capital Sichuan for the first time.
Chen Chong looked at him and said, "After crossing this Yellow River, it is the boundary of Guanping City!
"What?" Wang Baoshan immediately jumped up when he heard this, he looked around and looked for a long time, but he didn't see that this was already the boundary of Huangjiang Prefecture.
Seeing that Chen Chong was from the national capital Sichuan, Wang Baoshan didn't think much about it, so he briefly told him what happened to him. Among them, there is a giant python in horror, as well as the private collection of the giant python...... Wait, weird and bizarre things, and this mission, in order not to make Chen Chong think too much, he didn't say a word.
only said that he was a villager on the other side of the Yellow River, Jiangbian Town, Pingcheng, Guan, who accidentally fell into the river yesterday and somehow was flooded by the river to this side of the mountain. Then I got lost again, and until the evening, I didn't find my way out. Until last night, he suddenly heard a loud bang and rushed over to hear it.
At the end, Wang Baoshan asked, "Brother Chen, do you know how to cross the river? I still have to rush back, and I am still waiting for me at home." ”
Chen Chong listened to his words and didn't seem to believe much, but he couldn't distinguish the truth from the false. After thinking for a while, he said: "When I first arrived here, I didn't know how to cross the river, so I guess if I walked along the river, I would find a ferry wharf, and I should be able to find a boat to cross the river." ”
"Then let's go! I've been away from home for two days, and I need to go back quickly. When Wang Baoshan heard this, he also knew that he had been brought to the other side of the Yellow River by the giant python, and with a general direction, it was easy to leave.
"Don't be in a hurry, let's eat something and then go! I've been hungry for a few days. Chen Chong said, picked up the grilled grass carp, and regardless of the hot hands, tore a large piece and handed it to Wang Baoshan.
"That's so good!" Wang Baoshan was hungry for a day and a night, so he took it and ate it.
When the two of them had gobbled up the grilled fish, they walked together and headed west.
When he left, Chen Chong was carrying a ** bag about the same height as him, which was stuffed with bulging women, and he didn't know what it contained. It seems that the weight is not light, but the young Chen Chong is on his back, but it is not a big problem.
I saw him walking, walking steadily, breathing smoothly, and it seemed that last night's injuries had healed.
This surprised Wang Baoshan, but when he came into contact with him for the first time, although he was a little confused, he didn't ask anything.
The two of them, who didn't seem to have the intention of speaking, walked forward with their heads bored. I don't know if Chen Chong was intentional or unintentional, he took Wang Baoshan directly around the bloody place last night and walked towards a ravine in the distance.
Wang Baoshan was on the way, seeing that he was preoccupied, he didn't go to talk to him. The two of them seem to have reached some kind of tacit understanding, and neither of them has inquired about their true origins.
The mountain road was difficult, and it was almost noon when they reached the ravine in front of them.
There is a path in the ravine, which winds from west to east, stretching for miles, and there is no end in sight on either side.
Chen Chong said: "Looking at this trail, it is estimated that there are often people walking, it should be the path connecting the town, go west, not far away should be able to find the town market with a ferry." ”
"Then let's go!" Wang Baoshan wiped the sweat from his forehead, a little happy.
"Brother Wang, let's leave it at that! Take care on the road. ”
"Okay! Take care. ”
The two of them have only known each other for less than half a day, and they are very strange to each other and don't know the details. Moreover, they all have their own agendas, so they have no intention of continuing to walk together.
When they arrived on the trail and they separated, Chen Chong hurried and headed east.
It was close to noon and the sun was not yet very hot.
Chen Chong's thin figure, carrying a **bag that exceeded his own weight, walked slowly on the trail. The road ahead is vast, and there is not a single pedestrian in sight, and it seems that Chen Chong at this moment, like a lonely ant, staggered forward.
Wang Baoshan paused slightly, looking at Chen Chong's distant back, and couldn't help but feel a little desolate. Seeing that he is young, going out alone, I don't know what kind of twists and turns he will experience? Will the terrifying scene last night happen?
Thinking of last night's scene, Wang Baoshan had palpitations. Although he didn't know the specific reason, he was sure that something must have happened to the young Chen Chong that he couldn't resist.
So, he saw that the other party's life was not easy, and shouted from afar: "Brother Chen, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can go to Heifengling, fifty miles southwest of Guanping City, to find me." ”
"Brother Wang, what kind of place is that Black Wind Ridge?" After hearing this, Chen Chong stopped, a little puzzled.
"It's not a good place right now, but it's enough to survive for the time being. Wang Baoshan walked over, and then told him about his actions this time, and also introduced his true identity, and briefly said it one by one.
After Chen Chong heard this, he sighed greatly, perhaps thinking of his misfortune, he decided to follow Wang Baoshan to Heifengling.
In this way, the two who had just separated came together again, planning to go to Jiangbian Town together.
On the way, Chen Chong also briefly introduced himself, saying that he was being chased and killed.
It turned out that this Chen Chong was the descendant of the Chen family in Chuancheng, the capital of the southern country, and the Chen family belonged to the subordinate family of Baijitang, and it was also a famous family.
The whole clan is specially developing new types of firearms for Baijitang, although it is only a small part, but the weight is not light, and it belongs to the core group.
Chen Chong's mother passed away when he was very young, leaving him and his father to depend on each other.
His father was cautious and only sought self-preservation in everything, so his status in the Chen family belonged to the last group of people, and he was always excluded by the clan and others.
Three months ago, Chen Chong's father suddenly developed a new type of firearm, the three-link handcuff.
This new firearm is not small, from the original one, to three shots at a time, greatly improving the firing effect of ordinary firearms, which is a great credit.
Originally, his father could get a rich reward from Baijitang for this, and quickly improve his status in the Chen family. was impersonated by Chen Sun, the current patriarch of the Chen family, and took away the invention title of the triple handcuff by coercion and temptation.
This made Chen Chong's father very angry, and he was sick in bed for dozens of days, and finally he was grief and indignant, and died of hatred.
Later, Chen Chong learned that his father wanted to take this opportunity to send him to the Baiji Hall to learn and further his skills, so as to fulfill his long-cherished wish many years ago.
But he never thought that his dream was shattered, and he was innocently framed, saying that he betrayed the clan training and wanted to drive their father and son out of the Chen family and erase their clan status.
These were undoubtedly a heavy blow to Chen Chong's father, so before he died, he gave the original three-link handcuffs that he had worked hard to develop for decades to his son and his years of research and development experience, and asked him to escape quickly with his things, and he must not be caught by the Chen family.
also told him that because of the Chen family, he would not be able to go to Baijitang in the future, and he did not want him to avenge himself in the future, so let him find a remote place and live a stable life.
The young Chen Chong had no choice but to flee for his life everywhere, because the original three-link handcuff was taken away by him, and the Chen family did not hesitate to send a large number of people to arrest it in order to recapture it.
also lied to Baijitang, saying that it was his father and son who stole things and escaped from the Chen family, which made the high-level of Baijitang attach great importance to this matter, and also sent a lot of people to track it down.
Chen Chong listened to his father's advice when he was dying, and knew that no matter where he fell, there would be no good results, and he ran all the way, trying to go to sparsely populated places, hiding and fleeing for his life.
Last night, he was also forced to be helpless, fled into the mountainous area, and was chased by the son of the head of the Chen family, that is, his cousin.
After a fierce fight, both sides failed to succeed, and they were stalemate in the dark. Later, he was filled with grief and indignation when he saw that Uncle Shuisheng, who had always been close to his father and son, was brutally killed by his cousin.
In the end, he lured his cousin and them over, and when they approached, Chen Chong detonated the self-made bombardment he had hidden there in advance, killing his cousin and his party of fourteen people on the spot.
Although Chen Chong got rid of the entanglement at that time, he was also affected by the aftermath of the bombardment, and he was not comfortable, and he was seriously injured, so he had to ask Wang Baoshan for help.
In the end, Chen Chong was also puzzled, he was obviously hit by the aftermath of the **, and his internal organs were injured, and he should have fallen to the ground and was dying. Why did I wake up and have nothing to do, and all the external and internal injuries on my body were miraculously healed.
Of course, Wang Baoshan couldn't tell him the truth, so he had to say what was going on, and he didn't know very well.
At that time, seeing that he was unconscious, he kept asking for water to drink, so he went to the mountains to find some mountain spring water and fed him to drink. Maybe it's because he has a good physical foundation, so he recovered quickly.
Chen Chong was even more puzzled about this, and said in his heart, what kind of mountain spring water? It can have such a miraculous effect, and he can be cured of such a serious injury.
The real situation, Wang Baoshan definitely can't tell him, even if he does, it is estimated that Chen Chong will not believe it. After all, what he experienced was too bizarre and shocking for ordinary people.
In order to keep Chen Chong from thinking blindly, Wang Baoshan had to say that when he came out of Heifengling, he had healing medicine on his body, so that something unexpected would happen. Last night, I just gave it to Chen Chong, and I never thought that it would make his injury heal.
After hearing this, although Chen Chong still had doubts, he couldn't think of any reason. He didn't say anything more, and thanked Wang Baoshan again and again, thanked him for saving his life, and said that in the future, he would definitely repay him well.
