Chapter 276: Beard Under the Moon
When Qin Xiao looked up at the night sky, Yuwen Chengchao was also looking at the same moon.
Under the moonlight, the bonfire rose, and Tang Wuxian was sitting around the bonfire with seven or eight people, eating the dry food he carried with him, talking and laughing.
Yuwen Chengchao's hands were tied to the big tree behind his back, and there was a wolf rider guarding beside him.
After Tang Wuxian and the wolf cavalry ambushed the old marquis, he shot the old marquis and captured Yuwen Chengchao.
But Tang Wuxian did not lead the team back to Turtle City.
The ambush soldiers were divided into two routes, one way went directly back to the camp, while the other way was Tang Wuxian with ten cavalrymen escorting Yuwen Cheng towards the south.
Turtle City is in the west, and Tang Wuxian is obviously not going to Turtle City this way.
Yuwen Chengchao looked at the night sky for a long time, and heard a voice say, "Eldest son, do you want to eat something?" But it was Tang Wuxian's voice.
Tang Wuxian looked quite impressive, holding a piece of jerky in his hand, and shook it towards Yu Wencheng.
Yuwen Chengchao's expression was indifferent and he didn't speak.
"I know that the eldest prince is very unwilling." Tang Wuxian said with a smile: "It is said that the eldest son of Yuwen is the first son of the Xiling family, both civil and military, your reputation Tang has long known, and he has admired it, but today I know that there are not a few people in this world who have a false name, what is the first son of Xiling, and he is not a prisoner at the moment?" ”
"As I said, you killed me earlier." Yuwen Chengchao finally spoke: "If I live, your whole family won't survive." ”
Tang Wuxian smiled: "Your kung fu in this mouth can be regarded as the first in Xiling." Raised his hand suddenly, and slapped Tang Wuxian in the face, with a "snap", it was extremely crisp, and he sneered: "You want to kill my whole family, do you have that ability?" You are now a piece of meat on the chopping board, and you can do whatever you want. ”
Yuwen Chengchao looked at Tang Wuxian coldly, and suddenly asked, "Who instructed you to do this?" ”
Tang Wuxian was stunned, and Yuwen Chengchao said: "You said that you want to avenge the Zhen family's father and son, are you lying to me, or are you lying to these people under you?" ”
"The Yuwen family killed the Hou Ye and the young son, of course I am avenging them." Tang Wuxian's face turned cold.
Yuwen Chengchao sneered and didn't say much.
Tang Wuxian saw that Yuwen Chengchao's face was full of mockery, and he was annoyed in his heart, pulled out his knife, pressed against Yuwen Chengchao's throat, and said sharply: "What are you laughing at?" Believe it or not, I'm going to cut your throat now? ”
"If you really have the guts, Lao Tzu will never frown." Yuwen Chengchao said lightly: "I'm just afraid that you don't have the guts." ”
"You're .....!"
"If you dare to kill me, why did you bring me here?" Yuwen Cheng Chaodao.
Tang Wuxian held the knife in his hand and suddenly burst into muscles, his eyes were full of murderous intent, but at this moment, he heard the sound of horses' hooves not far away, Tang Wuxian immediately put away his knife, turned around, and the cavalry around the bonfire immediately stood up, drew their swords out of their sheaths, and were full of vigilance.
Yuwen Chengchao frowned slightly, and under the night, a group of cavalry soon appeared not far away, with more than ten horses, like ghosts.
Tang Wuxian stepped forward, and when the cavalry approached, he turned around and said, "It's your own people." He was about to catch up, but he saw that the cavalry was already holding bows and arrows, and before the wolf cavalry could react, the arrows had already shot vigorously.
Yuwen Chengchao obviously heard Tang Wuxian claim that those cavalry were his own people, but he didn't expect that as soon as they met, the other party would shoot and kill, and he was surprised.
The arrows were sharp, and there were several screams, and the three never returned
The wolf cavalry of the gods has been shot by the other party, but the others have already reacted, and some people have been hit by arrows but have not hurt the vital point, and they have brandished broadswords to block the arrows.
Tang Wuxian said sharply: "I am Tang Wuxian, a wolf rider, my own people, you ......!" Before he finished speaking, a sharp arrow shot at him, and he swung his knife away, and he was inexplicably frightened.
When he approached, he separated his left and right sides, and continued to shoot arrows on his wings.
Yuwen Chengchao saw clearly at this time, and came to ride a feather wearing a feather, with a black crow mask on his face, a skillful bow horse, and a fierce shot.
Black Feather Night Raven!
Qin Xiaowan didn't expect the Black Feather Night Crow to suddenly appear.
He was excited, wondering if it was the Black Feather Night Raven who came to the rescue, but in an instant his heart sank again.
When the Black Feather Night Raven appeared, Tang Wuxian naturally saw the other party clearly, but claimed to be "his own person", when did the Black Feather Night Raven become the wolf rider's own person?
The night crow shot ruthlessly, the cavalry under Tang Wuxian had been shot more than half in a moment, and the rest of the people knew that they were not opponents, so they ran towards their war horses, and the two wolf cavalrymen had not yet approached the war horses, "poof" twice, in the middle of their backs, and immediately fell to the ground.
Tang Wuxian was agile, but he rushed to the nearest war horse, cut the reins of the horse tied to the tree with a big knife, turned over on the horse, patted the horse and left.
The wolf cavalry guarding Yuwen Chengchao had already rushed to the side of the war horse at this time, and he was also on the horse, and when the night crow shot the wolf cavalry, this person had already beaten the horse and left.
"None of them will be left." One of the night crows shouted, "Don't let them escape." ”
The wolf cavalry had almost been wiped out before they could engage with the Night Ravens, and the Night Ravens were decisive and swift, indeed well-trained, and ruthless.
Tang Wuxian and the wolf cavalry guarding fled for their lives left and right, and the other wolf cavalry didn't run far before he was shot by the night crow and rolled off his horse.
More than a dozen night crows divided into two teams and went to chase Tang Wuxian and another wolf cavalryman, leaving only four night crows behind.
The four night crows put away their bows and arrows, but they drew their swords again and slowly approached Yuwen Chengchao.
Yuwen Chengchao's expression was grim, and when the night crows approached, his lips moved slightly, but he still didn't make a sound.
"Are you Yuwen Chengchao?" The night crow rode on horseback and stared condescendingly at Yuwen Chengchao.
Yuwen Chengchao smiled coldly and asked, "Why do you knowingly ask, it was you who instructed the wolf to ride in an ambush?" ”
Night Crow said coldly: "The Xiling family did evil and poisoned the people of Xiling, if it weren't for you Xiling Gate Lords, there would not be so many Tang soldiers who died in battle and became ghosts under the knife of the Wutuo people." ”
"Sure enough." Yuwen Chengchao laughed angrily: "Su Shoumo will also use such shameless means? ”
"Avenging the brothers who died in battle is not shameless by any means." Night Crow said calmly: "Everyone in the world will only think that it is the wolf rider who avenges the Zhen family, so that it can reduce unnecessary trouble for the general." ”
"In that case, why don't you kill me?"
Night Raven said: "The blood sacrifice for the heroic souls who died in the war back then, naturally we have to do it ourselves. His hand holding the knife slowly raised: "Yuwen Chengchao, your life, I will take .....!"
Before the words were finished, a "whoosh" sound was suddenly heard, and a cold arrow was actually shot from the side, the speed was so fast and terrifying, that night crow had not yet reacted, and it had been shot through the neck by the cold arrow.
Yuwen Chengchao was startled, the night crow's body shook, rolled off the horse's back, the three riders behind were shocked, turned their heads to look over, under the moonlight, only to see a person and a horse standing not far away, like a ghost, I don't know when it will appear.
Naturally, the man was not a ghost.
The three horsemen came to their senses, pulled the reins of their horses, and rushed towards the man with a sword, but the man had already taken out three arrows from the quiver box behind him, bent his bow and arrows, and did not think about it, one bow and three arrows, and three arrows came out at the same time.
Yuwen Chengchao looked at it in his eyes, and his heart was shocked.
His specialty is male and female arrows, and he has practiced archery for many years, and of course he knows how clever archery is with one bow and three arrows.
Three arrows come out together, and the sharpness is incomparable.
Fortunately, the three riders were night crows, and they reacted very quickly, one rode backwards, almost with their backs attached to the horse, and the other rode on their sides, as if hanging on a war horse, and they all dodged, and the other rode with a knife to cut, but I don't know if the arrow was too fast, or the person's judgment was wrong, and when the big knife slashed past, the arrow had already sunk into the person's shoulder.
"Let's go!" A night raven muttered.
Apparently seeing that the man's strength was too terrifying, they stayed here and sought their own death, so they turned around and walked away, and one of them galloped to the side of the night crow who had been shot, stretched out his hand to pick up the corpse of his companion, and patted the horse away.
The man didn't chase either, put away his longbow, urged the horse to the side of Yuwen Chengchao, and glanced down at Yuwen Chengchao.
Yuwen Chengchao saw clearly at this time, this person was burly, with a scruffy beard, unkempt, and thick beard, which actually covered half of his face, but his eyes were huge, like copper bells.
His longbow, Yuwen Chengchao also recognized it at a glance, it was an iron gall bow.
The iron gall bow is at least a three-stone bow, and it is impossible for ordinary people to even open the bow, this person's iron gall bow, looking at the appearance of three stones, if it is a four-stone bow, even those long-trained warriors in the White Tiger Battalion may not be able to pull it, let alone shoot arrows with a bow.
This person was dressed in coarse cloth clothes, but his waist was surrounded by a leather apron made of animal skins, and he was wearing an animal skin hat on his head, he looked at Yuwen Chengchao condescendingly, and suddenly pulled out the saber on his waist, and the knife flashed, and he had already cut the rope that tied Yuwen Chengchao to the tree, and put away the knife and said: "They will come back soon, hurry up and run for their lives." His voice was a little hoarse, and he didn't say much, and he patted the horse and left.
Yuwen Chengchao got up, saw the beard leave, and immediately rushed to the side of the bonfire, there was a package there, Yuwen Chengchao knew that the package was the head of the old marquis, took the head of the old marquis, quickly rushed to the side of a horse, turned over on the horse, and did not hesitate to pat the horse and chase after the bearded man.
The bearded man did not look back, under the moonlight, the healthy horse was like flying, Yuwen Chengchao urged the horse again and again, chased out more than ten miles, and arrived at a small stream, the bearded man suddenly reined in the horse, and when Yuwen Chengchao caught up, the bearded man had already turned the horse's head, facing Yuwen Chengchao, and asked sharply: "Why do you want to follow me?" Do you want to die? ”
Yuwen Chengchao arched his hand and said: "In the lower Yuwen Chengchao, dare to ask Brother Taigao's surname?" Today, we must remember the great grace we have received and we will repay it when we have the opportunity. ”
"I don't need you to repay me, and I don't want to save you." The bearded man said lightly: "I just can't get used to those hypocrites who have a false name. Looking up at the night sky, he suddenly laughed and said: "Black Feather Night Crow, hahaha, Lao Tzu originally thought that it was really a group of brave and righteous heroes, but he didn't expect that they were all villains in vain." This group of villains is praised by others, and the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty worship, no wonder this bullshit empire is not as good as day by day, hahaha .....!"
