Chapter 21 The hand rises and the knife falls
After the third watch, near the Black Tiger Temple on the north side of Nanzhao County, six strong men walked with swords and soldiers, chatting about the affairs of the rivers and lakes.
Nanzhao County is under the control of the King of Chu, surrounded by mountains on three sides and connected to the Chu Plain, which is considered a remote area; The Chu army, which was responsible for the raid on Luanshan County, set up camp in the open area outside the county seat, and marched into the mountains after dawn, striving to launch a surprise attack on Luanshan County in the early morning of the day after tomorrow.
Lin Yuzhen and other masters of the rivers and lakes who were specially used to deal with Xu Buling, because of the strong combat power of the single person, took advantage of the night to come over to explore the terrain first to see if there was a sentry in the mountain.
It is not out of the control of the king of Chu, and the surrounding area is full of barren mountains and mountains, and there is not even a shadow of a ghost after walking for a long time, and the six Jianghu guests are naturally a little slack, but the king of Chu gave them a lot of money to ask them to kill Xu Buling, and the matter still has to be done, and he still seriously explores while walking.
Lin Yuli, the young master of Hutou Mountain, walked in the front with a tiger head gun, arrogant on the surface, but a little weak in his heart - Lin Yuzhen was clear about Xu Buling's combat power, and as far as a few of them were concerned, eighty percent of them would die in the wilderness on this trip; But the bull blew out, and it belonged to the forces under the King of Chu, and the King of Chu arranged the work to Lin Yuri, where did he refuse? At this time, I have been secretly figuring out how to save my life without being ashamed.
Next to Lin Yulin is a man with a double knife, one of the leaders of the Chudi Boat Gang, he has long heard of Xu Buling's skills, and he has never believed it in his heart.
ββ¦β¦ What kind of road did Xu Buling take? I heard that if you can beat Xue Chengzhi, you should be practicing foreign kung fu, right? β
Lin Yuzhen felt empty in his heart, he still had to hold up enough on the faΓ§ade, and he chuckled: "That's right, I used the Lin family gun when I played tricks." It's a good deal, but it's a pity that he has no intentions, so he relied on his natural strength to take advantage of it......"
The man with the double knife listened to it for a long time, and felt that something was wrong: "Brother Lin, what you said is not to let weapons take advantage, condescending terrain to take advantage, and strength to take advantage." Took so much advantage to get a tie with you? β
"Hmm...... At that time, the fight was not over, and Qingxu Zhenren was afraid that they would hurt each other, so they came out to fight. It's really hard to say whether you're going to win or lose to the end......"
The man with the double knife showed a bit of admiration in his eyes: "Brother Lin really deserves his reputation." β
"yes, yes......"
The five people who followed behind also nodded yes.
The man with the two knives wanted to continue to ask a few words, but before he opened his mouth, he realized that something was wrong-there were six people, he and Lin Yuzhen were two people, plus the next five nodded yes......
οΌοΌ
How is there one more?
The man with the double knife was inexplicable, and when he turned around, he saw that among the five people who followed behind, there was a tall young man in white robes, who was called a peerless and handsome man, and he also carried a knife in his hand, and he followed unhurriedly, and he didn't know how far he had followed.
The man with the two knives thought that he had a bad memory, but he had never met this young man in the barracks, so he asked suspiciously:
"You...... Your Excellency was just sent by the King of Chu? β
Lin Yuzhen turned his head when he heard the sound, and as soon as he saw the white shadow, the whole person froze.
When Xu Buling heard the sentence 'just sent by the King of Chu', he understood the origin of these Jianghu people, and he said with a little smile:
"Brother Lin, don't you know me? How many of you have been running to this deep mountain and old forest at night, and you can't hunt? β
Lin Yuri's face was like ashes, holding the tiger's head gun without moving, and he only rolled his eyes twice.
Although the six of them are not grandmasters, they are by no means mediocre hands, and one of them secretly felt that something was wrong, and secretly stretched his waist behind his back, trying to pull the transmission fireworks on his belt.
Sa β
This is the moment.
The night wind swept across the mountains and forests, and the cold light burst silently.
The white robe swept away the fallen leaves in the forest, and the four-foot blade brought out a silver line in the night.
With just one turn, the four figures around him were all cut off before they could move.
Before the screams could be released, Xu Buling's backhand was another knife, sweeping between the necks of the four people.
The voice stopped abruptly, and the four people who were still laughing turned into twelve.
The pieces of meat fall to the ground, and the blood and water flow sideways!
The eyes of the man with two knives changed from dazed for a moment to full of liver and gall, and he quickly raised his double knives to block and retreat. But before he could see the movement, the blade struck from below.
Poof-
A little spark burst out in the night, and the eyes of the man with two knives remained terrified, and his body split into two pieces and fell to both sides.
Flutter β
Silence fell in the woods.
Xu Buling waved the blade lightly, sprinkled some blood beads on the blade, and turned his head to look at Lin Yuri, who was standing a few steps away.
But in an instant, Lin Yuzhen reacted, but he didn't dare to move, still maintaining a stiff posture, and raised his fingers slightly:
"Xu ...... His Royal Highness doesn't have to be like this. The small one is just a riverlake guest, for the sake of past acquaintances......"
Xu Buling withdrew the knife from the scabbard, and his eyes were unwavering: "What did the King of Chu send Brother Lin to do?" Assassinate me? β
Lin Yuzhen knew that he was already a fish on the chopping board, thought about it, and threw the tiger head gun on the ground:
"My Lin family is under the jurisdiction of the King of Chu, and it is helpless to help the King of Chu. The day before yesterday, the king of Chu ordered Qin Jing, the guard general of Nanyang, to send 10,000 troops to attack Luanshan County, wanting to kill His Royal Highness the prince. In order to prevent the prince from breaking through the siege, a certain and general Chen Shou, who led the troops, came over to intercept ......"
When Xu Buling heard this, he was really puzzled: "If the king of Chu doesn't fight Wuguandao, why did he come to beat me?" β
"The prince doesn't stay in Luanshan County, why is he summoned by the south?"
ββ¦β¦β
Yes, the soldiers are treacherous, and they go together.
Xu Buling nodded, and he didn't have any fears in his heart, after all, 10,000 people staying outside was much easier to fight than 10,000 people guarding the city. He turned his head to look at the dozen pieces of rotten meat on the ground:
"Just you, to stop me?"
Lin Yuzhen's expression stiffened: "The contemporary grandmaster was basically killed by the prince, and there was no one in Chu who dared to take this job, and the king of Chu also forcibly pulled me over...... I really don't want to come, you see I don't even mean to do it......"
"Where is the Chu army stationed?"
"The north of Nanzhao County, only more than five miles away from here, I came to explore the way first......
Xu Buling nodded, turned around and walked to the woods: "Pick up the gun and follow me later." You Hutou Mountain is quite famous in Chudi, and you know a lot of three sects and nine streams, so help me recruit troops and buy horses in the future, and the benefits of your Lin family are indispensable afterwards. β
Lin Yuzhen was relieved, picking up a life was already the ancestral tomb was already smoking, where did he dare to say half a word of nonsense, he hurriedly picked up the iron spear from the ground, and trotted behind him: "Xu Shizi rest assured, as long as the prince enters Chu, my Lin family son-in-law will definitely saddle the horse and swear to the death......"
"You came from Nanyang, you probably know about the deployment of the Chu army, right?"
"What armament?"
"It's where there are more soldiers, where there are fewer soldiers, and whether there are trenches and bunkers and other fortifications......"
"Understood, well, all the way from Nanyang......"
