Chapter 109: The Night of the Murder in the Dark Moon and the Wind (2)
The old man rushed out of the team and took the lead in catching up, the others had different speeds because of their differences, and the team was getting longer and longer, and Mu Zhenghai took his two old subordinates in the late Ming Jin period and fell at the back of the team.
The last hill, Jin Cheng thought to himself, he ran quickly, and at the same time put his divine sense to the maximum distance, alerting to whether there was an ambush ahead. Ni Shan was injured in an attack on this mountain at the beginning, and almost gave up his life, he had to be careful.
According to the induction of divine sense, Gu He, who led the way for the Japanese people, was not far ahead, and over this mountain was the waterhole where the dragon carp was located, which also proved that his previous guess was good, the Japanese people came to this waterhole, if they were vigilant enough, it was very likely that a secret post was set up on this mountain.
Jin Cheng tried his best to hunch his body to reduce the possibility of being discovered, but the light of the flashlight flashing behind him was likely to have been spotted by the observer on the top of the mountain.
He had to prepare for the worst, and he was on high alert for the situation on the top of the mountain, which was getting closer and closer, and suddenly, he felt a powerful aura approaching behind him, and it was actually slightly faster than him.
There are masters and strong strength, this is Jin Cheng's first feeling, but he did not panic and still maintained his original speed.
Although the opponent is strong and his strength is above him, Jin Cheng did not exert all his strength, if he escaped with all his strength, in the dark night, he was confident to escape.
Less than two hundred meters from the top of the mountain, Jin Cheng discovered the location of the observer. Dressed like him, he was dressed in the same ninja clothes, wrapped in dark clothes, with only two eyes exposed, lurking in the grass, and his back was covered with a layer of grass, which was very well disguised.
The location of the ninja is condescending, and the line of sight is wide, and someone must be able to spot approaching, which means that the Japanese people under the mountain should have also received the news, and it is impossible to implement the sneak attack plan.
There was an interception in front and a pursuit of soldiers in the back, Jin Cheng couldn't help but smile bitterly at the situation he was facing, planning is in the sky, since he has come to this point, he can only fight.
The whereabouts have been exposed, so there is no need to hide anymore, Jin Cheng straightened up and rushed towards the top of the mountain at full speed. Thankfully, the lurking ninja didn't carry a firearm, which made Jin Cheng have no scruples and use his speed to the extreme.
One hundred meters.
Fifty meters.
The ninja didn't move, he didn't know that Jin Cheng had already discovered him, and he didn't think about it, he was about to deliver a fatal blow when Jin Cheng passed by him.
Twenty meters, Jin Cheng made a move, and an iron nail cut a cold light, accurately hitting the ninja's eyebrows. With one blow and no struggle, the ninja returned to the west with a puzzled look on his face, so that the warriors who followed behind did not know that there was an ambush here, and the person who was in ambush was dead.
After clearing the obstacles ahead, Jin Cheng continued to rush in the direction of the pond below the mountain, and he could already see the campfires and camping tents lit in the open space by the pond, as well as the ninja team waiting for them.
Jin Cheng took a cursory look, there was a team of no less than twenty people by the waterhole, most of them were dressed as ninjas, each with a katana, standing in two neat rows, it seemed that he had received a message from the observer, knowing that there was an enemy attack, and the Japanese people were ready for a decisive battle.
The Mu family elder who followed Jin Cheng followed closely to the top of the mountain, and when he saw the situation at the foot of the mountain clearly, he stopped. Thinking from his point of view, the matter has become clear, the other party is indeed a Japanese national, and the little devil is purposeful to lure them to come, and this is the place of the decisive battle.
Jin Cheng burrowed into the woods, stopped halfway up the mountain, and after making sure that he was out of sight of both sides, he ripped off his ninja costume, threw it into the spatial ring, restored his original appearance, and then moved sideways for a while, climbed to a big tree, and hid.
He had already lit the fire, and as for what Cheng dΓΉ could burn, he didn't know, so he could only wait and see.
The Mu family decided that it was the Japanese who killed their third young master, and they definitely couldn't stop. And the Japanese people cannot expose their whereabouts, they will inevitably kill people and destroy their mouths, this is a battle to the death, and the Japanese people have no choice.
When the three of Mu Zhenghai at the back of the team arrived at the top of the mountain, the elder of the Mu family pointed to the foot of the mountain and said: "Big young master, it's a little devil ninja, it's right, the other party has more people than us, how to fight this battle, you have an idea." β
"We ran for three or four hours in a row to catch up here, they are waiting for work, MD, the little devil is too cunning, now there is no other way, even if we want to retreat, they can't let us go, only by fighting with them, there is hope of survival, everyone rests in place for ten minutes. What if there are many people, I don't believe that they can be stronger than our Mu family. Mu Zhenghai's speech at the critical time was loud, showing his courage and calmness, and his demeanor as a general, which made the Mu family present shine brightly, and their morale was unconsciously improved.
"The eldest young master is right, you are all the elite children of the Mu family, just a little devil, what a fit, wait for everyone to get together as much as possible to form a defensive circle, don't give the opponent a chance to divide and encircle, the eldest young master commands in the middle of the circle, the little devil is a three-plate axe, carry it, and the victory belongs to us." Elder Feng has a very high status in the Mu family, and he can be called highly respected, and his words also play an encouraging role.
Ten minutes later, Mu Zhenghai shouted "go", and the team led by Elder Feng set off.
Compared with the samurai sword formation of the Japanese people, the Mu family is all daggers with short blades and military crossbows, only Elder Feng carries his hands behind his back, looks leisurely, and walks with confidence.
After the Mu family's team walked halfway up the mountain, Jin Cheng also slipped down the tree and followed them from a distance.
At this time, a person came out of the camping tent, shirtless, wearing big pants, stepping on clogs, "tapping and tapping" in the dark night, and the footsteps were particularly harsh.
The man walked slowly to the front of the group of Japanese people, his eyes swept over everyone, and after a while, he nodded slowly, as if satisfied, and then turned his head to look at the mountain.
The Mu family finally walked out of the woods and came to the clearing, and the distance between the two sides was only about forty meters. Mu Zhenghai once again shouted "move" and took the lead in shooting the crossbow arrow at the opposing camp.
Military crossbows can fire ten arrows in a row, except for Elder Feng's empty hand, the others have a total of eleven crossbows, and in an instant, I saw an overwhelming number of crossbow arrows flying towards the area where the Japanese people were located.
The Japanese were obviously prepared, and six huge shields stood up at the front of the line, but even this could not protect everyone.
