Chapter 278: Blending In
When the shepherd wolf and his party arrived at Huangshi Mountain outside Jinyang City, Taiyuan County, it was already the night of the seventeenth day of the first lunar month.
That night, the group was stationed in Jinyang City, and the county commander heard that the Northern Shura Shepherd Wolf had brought the Heavenly Wolf Battalion to be stationed in his own jurisdiction, and he was busy preparing some wine and food, and personally went to the garrison camp to reward and visit.
The shepherd wolf was not polite to the county order, but accepted everything sent one by one.
After the county order left, Mu Tianwolf said: "Yulin, you work hard, go and get in touch with Qingmian and Ah Tu to see how they are doing." ”
Yulin said: "I'll go!" With Atu's ability, if he can break into the interior of Huangshi Village, I believe that there will be no suspense in this battle. With that, Yulin went out. Luda couldn't bear the loneliness, so he had to follow Yulin to see it, so he also went to Huangshi Village in advance.
The shepherd wolf said: "Rest early tonight, and when you wait for their news tomorrow, you will send troops to Huangshi Village!" ”
As for Kang Jiulong and Yang Zhi, they have not been idle this week. Since Shepherd Wolf led his troops to Huluzhuang, Yang Zhi began to find a way to infiltrate Huangshi Village.
Huangshizhai didn't know what was going on, so he lived in a simple place. Yang Zhi even tried to pretend to be a passing businessman, loaded a large cart full of goods, escorted it with Kang Jiulong and the others, and swaggered past under Huangshi Mountain, but the people in Huangshi Village turned a blind eye......
Yang Zhi and Kang Jiulong had no choice but to go up the mountain directly, but they didn't pay attention to the two of them at all, in case they approached, the opposite mountain peak began to fire bows and crossbows together, and there was no chance to mix in at all, and the angry Kang Jiulong almost took out his own Xinghui Pan Dragon Halberd to kill it!
In desperation, the two had to carefully observe the entry and exit habits of the bandits in Huangshi Village, and slowly look for opportunities.
On this day, the two were hiding in the dark, waiting for the people inside to come out, Yang Zhi suddenly remembered Lin Bao's words, Lin Bao said that the last time he led troops to attack Huangshi Village, the leader of the village only appeared a mediocre martial arts master of Wuzhai, as for the real mind Shen Qiye, he didn't even show his face.
Yang Zhi said to Kang Jiulong beside him: "Could it be that there is any civil strife in this Huangshi Village, so they are so cautious and low-key, this style is not like the style of a group of bandits!" ”
Kang Jiulong said: "I don't know what happened to this cottage, but I know that our time is running out, if the general is here and we haven't completed the task, it will be a shame!" I'd rather kill it single-handedly! ”
Yang Zhidao: "Ah Tu, I know that you are strong in martial arts and have awakened the spirit of martial arts, but in this kind of place, it is difficult to display your own bravery, and you still need to outwit it!" Otherwise, why would the general leave the two of us behind? If you want to attack, the general's strength is no worse than yours. ”
Kang Jiulong thought about it, what Yang Zhi said made sense, the general sent himself to this Huangshi Village, just to sharpen himself! Kang Jiulong said: "Brother Yang is right, brother, I am Meng Lang!" So what do you think we should do next? ”
Yang Zhi couldn't say why, so he had to say: "Let's observe for two days first, maybe there will be a chance!" It's a pity that Lord Viper isn't here, if he's here, we can easily blend in with a single disguise! ”
Yang Zhi and the others have already seen that there will be people going out to the mountain to carry water every night in this Huangshi Village, probably because there are too many people moving in the cottage, and the water in the mountain spring is not enough. At a time, 100 people would go out to carry water to the stockade in large buckets.
Yang Zhi originally wanted to blend in with the team carrying water, but later found that the inventory of this Huangshi Village was very strict, and it was difficult not to be discovered without the disguise technique. Yang Zhi didn't want to take risks, because once he startled the snake, it would be too difficult to sneak in.
But on the third day, Yang Zhi suddenly found that the people who came out to carry water were not the same as the previous ones! Although a few small bosses have not changed, those minions are not the same as before.
Continue to observe, on the fifth day, Yang Zhi and Kang Jiulong found that these minions had changed again, Yang Zhi said: "It seems that they change shifts every two days, today is a rare opportunity, a group of new people, just take advantage of the guards on the ropeway to get in!" I guess the general should be back soon, so you might as well fight with me. ”
Kang Jiulong said: "Okay, it should have been like this a long time ago, just listen to Brother Yang!" ”
Yang Zhi and Kang Jiulong followed the team that went down the mountain to carry water, planning to find a gap to secretly kill the two and change their clothes to blend in.
But it didn't take long for the two to realize that this method didn't work! Because the team of more than 100 people walked very tightly, no one fell behind halfway, and no one went to the toilet or went to a desertion or anything, so Yang Zhi and Kang Jiulong had no chance to mix in.
In the end, Kang Jiulong was anxious, so he said, "Brother Yang, have you seen those barrels?" With my size, I should be able to get in! In this way, you can kill them in a moment and attract their attention, and I will take advantage of the chaos to hide in one of the barrels, and maybe I will have a chance! ”
Yang Zhidao: "No! This is too dangerous, if you want to go, it should be me, the general will hand you over to me, I can't let you put yourself at risk! ”
Kang Jiulong said: "Brother Yang, don't fight anymore at this time, if you want to get into that barrel, you can't carry any weapons, and your internal cultivation can't reach the level where you can come and go freely without a blade." And I'm a lot smaller than you, and it's a lot easier to get into the barrel! ”
Yang Zhi wanted to say something, but Kang Jiulong said categorically: "It's decided!" Brother Yang, let's act! ”
Yang Zhi also knew that the method Kang Jiulong said was the only way at the moment, so he had to say: "Brother Jiulong, you must remember to be careful!" If it is accidentally exposed, it must be the priority to save your life! ”
Kang Jiulong said: "Don't worry, there are not many people in this world who can kill me." ”
After speaking, Yang Zhi and Kang Jiulong lurked on the road back from the Huangshi Village water transport team. When the bandits passed by with buckets, Yang Zhi took a simple knife and killed it, and said: "The thieves in Huangshi Village, if you want to live from here, you will stay to buy road money!" ”
Seeing Yang Zhi alone on the road, the man who was the first of the bandits stood up with a ghost head knife and said: "Hehe, it's really fresh, we haven't gone down the mountain to do business in Huangshizhai for a long time, but I didn't expect that now these little thieves who don't have long eyes will actually reach out to us!" It just so happens that grandpa I haven't done it for a long time, my hands are itching, come on, come on, stand there and don't move, let grandpa I cut you three times! ”
Yang Zhidao: "Who are you from Huangshi Village?" ”
The man said, "Want to ask grandpa's details?" Then it's good for you to stand firm, grandpa, I am the sixth master of this Huangshi Village, Lu Qing! ”
Yang Zhidao: "Hahaha, I heard that this Huangshi Village has some skills except for Shen Qi, and the rest of the people are pus-filled rice buckets, that five-master Huo Ding, was picked by Lin Leopard of Erxian Village in two or three rounds to eat!" I think you're even more useless! ”
After hearing this, Lu Qing was furious, and he waved the ghost head knife and attacked Yang Zhi, and the rest of the little minions also began to gather together to cheer for their six masters!
As soon as Yang Zhi and Lu Qingfu fought, he knew how many catties and taels this Lu Qing had, and if he let go of his hands and feet to kill, I was afraid that this Lu Qing would not be able to resist him for ten rounds. But this trip is not to kill these inconsequential little people, if Lu Qing is killed, things will be difficult to handle.
So, Yang Zhi controlled his strength, slowly maneuvered with Lu Qing, and deliberately got the upper hand in order to buy time for Kang Jiulong on the side.
But after Kang Jiulong approached these wooden barrels, he found a problem, these wooden barrels were filled with water, and once he got into them, the water would overflow out, attracting the attention of these minions, so Kang Jiulong had no choice but to gesture to Yang Zhi!
Yang Zhi looked at Kang Jiulong's gesture next to the wooden barrel, and immediately understood, so he crossed the Pu knife in his hand, swung Lu Qing's blade, exchanged directions with Lu Qing, and turned his back to the team carrying water! Lu Qing's blade was swinged, and in a hurry, he kicked out, Yang Zhi took this kick hard, and then took advantage of the momentum to stumble backwards, knocking over three barrels in a row!
Then, Yang Zhi said: "Good thief, with a little ability, he can hurt me!" ”
And Lu Qing hated Yang Zhi even more, and said angrily: "The thief who killed the heavens dared to knock over the water that the grandfathers had worked so hard to get!" I'm going to peel you off and cramp you, and I'm going to break your body into pieces!" ”
The two fought together, and the little minions hurriedly lifted the bucket so that the water inside would not be poured out.
Kang Jiulong finally had a chance, found a gap and opened the lid of a wooden barrel with half of the water poured in, jumped in, and then closed the lid of the barrel, fortunately, there were some gaps in the lid of the barrel, so as not to be suffocated inside. However, Kang Jiulong was also uncomfortable, in the icy water of winter, the chill hit his bones, Kang Jiulong hurriedly used his strength to protect his body, so as not to freeze to death.
Yang Zhi saw that Kang Jiulong had already succeeded, and said in his heart: Brother Jiulong, I have suffered you! When the general comes, he will kill all these thieves, and let out the resentment of your suffering today!
Yang Zhi attacked three moves, then jumped out of the circle, and said: "Hmph, grandpa, I haven't eaten enough today, I don't have the strength, let's fight again another day!" After speaking, Yang Zhi dragged his own knife and ran away.
Lu Qing knew that he couldn't take Yang Zhi in a short time, and his task was to carry water, so he didn't chase it, just scolded angrily in the back, and then looked at the water poured out of the ground, and scolded the little minions, but fortunately, he didn't go to check the barrels, so he continued on the road.
Kang Jiulong sat in the bucket, luck to protect his body, only to feel that the road was bumpy, I don't know how long it took, the team finally stopped, and he was also unloaded, placed in an open space.
When there was no more sound around, Kang Jiulong opened the lid of the bucket and sneaked out.
After coming out, Kang Jiulong also had a black eye, ran around, and finally ran to a secluded place, stole a clean clothes to change into. Now his task is to find an opportunity to sneak to the lock and wait for the Shepherd Wolves to attack Huangshi Village.
And on this night, the Shepherd Wolf and the others happened to arrive in Jinyang City, and Yulin and Luda also happened to go to find Yang Zhi......
