Volume 1 Crossing the Rivers and Lakes and Involving Temples Chapter 22 Brothers

The Qisan Mountains connect Gyeonggi Province and Liaodong Province, with Annam Province in between. The mountains are undulating and the peaks are stacked. From a distance, the peaks are craggy, bursting into the sky, and the peaks are covered with clouds and mist, just like a thin white veil for Qishan, like a fairyland in a dream.

In a col halfway up the Qishan Mountain, Ye Chen and Zou Hu were lying behind a rock, looking at the downward depression of the terrain, there was a large and flat open space in the middle of the depression, and if you looked closely, you could find that this place should have been artificially leveled. Looking at the rows of tents, there were as many as forty or fifty, and there were a lot of clothes hanging around the tents to dry. There are also a lot of earthen stoves around it, as well as countless iron basins and wooden barrels. There were also constant patrols around the tent, a team of five, with neat steps and uniform clothing, as if it were a small army.

Ye Chen and Zou Hu were really shocked by this scene, looking at this posture, this group of people should not have lived here for a day or two, or even a year and a half.

Ye Chen pointed to the place covered with a black cloth in the distance and whispered, "Look at the place covered by the black cloth, it should be a weapon smuggled out of the city." ”

Zou Hu said: "This place is heavily defended, and we don't have a chance to go in at all." ”

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "There is a chance, but we have to wait for a while." After speaking, Ye Chen took Zou Hu around the side of the hill and slowly moved to the top of the black cloth cover. The two of them lay down in the grass and looked down, because of the angle of view, they could easily see everything below, and the patrol below could not see the two of them no matter how much they looked up.

Ye Chen and Zou Hu lay in the grass and waited for about a stick of incense, and suddenly ran down from the opposite hillside and went straight to the largest tent in the middle of the mountain col. A moment later, four or five men came out of the tent, looking extremely strong. One of them, a middle-aged man with a full beard, kept calling around, and in the blink of an eye, nearly three or four hundred people poured out from the interior of the other tents. Under the leadership of the middle-aged man, those people all carried Mo knives and ran in the direction that Ye Chen had touched just now.

Seeing this scene, Ye Chen looked at Zou Hu and said with a smile: "When the opportunity comes, I will quietly touch it down to see what is under the black cloth, and you can help me guard it." ”

Zou Hu said anxiously: "Listen to me this time, I'll go down, your eyes are sharp, it's more appropriate than me to observe above." ”

Ye Chen didn't say much, and watched Zou Hu slowly climb down. As soon as Zou Hu reached the edge of the black cloth, there was a sound of small fragments, and after careful identification, he confirmed that it was the sound of something rubbing against his clothes. He looked up at Ye Chen, only to see Ye Chen keep waving at him, signaling that there was a big tree on his right, and he could hide.

After the patrol left, Zou Hu walked out from behind the big tree again, and at the same time gave a thumbs up to Ye Chen behind him. Zou Hu slowly lifted the corner of the black cloth, revealing large yellow-brown wooden boxes neatly arranged underneath. Because the wooden boxes were piled up relatively high, it was impossible for Zou Hu to lift the lid on the bottom layer, so he had to burrow into the black cloth to pry open the top wooden box. Ye Chen, who was on the hillside, looked at Zou Hu in the black cloth and suddenly wanted to laugh.

Just as Zou Hu in the black cloth opened the wooden box, a disciple of the Blood Knife Sect who was holding a Mo knife slowly walked over, and he looked sideways at the black cloth dancing in front of him, with a look of disbelief. The disciple swallowed, tightened the knife in his hand, and walked slowly towards Zou Hu.

Seeing this, Ye Chen thought to himself that he had to be discovered if he waited so long, but now he couldn't notify Zou Hu in time. When he hesitated, Ye Chen's left hand touched the four-repeater crossbow in his hand, and his heart was overjoyed. He immediately took off the repeater from his waist, aimed at the disciple of the Blood Knife Gate, opened the safe, and with two "whoosh" sounds, the crossbow arrow shot out.

Who knew that one of the two crossbow arrows missed, and one hit someone's Mo knife with a "bang". Zou Hu secretly screamed when he heard the movement outside, he must have been discovered, but he didn't know what happened yet!

Ye Chen wanted to die, because after the first crossbow arrow missed, he aimed a little and followed up with an arrow. This arrow was even more excessive, and it hit directly on the strange knife of others.

The man holding the Mo knife was also confused, he saw both crossbow arrows, but before he could dodge, the crossbow arrows had fallen to the ground, and he didn't know whether to be happy or sad at this time. He suddenly reacted, turned his head and shouted behind him, "Someone is attacking the camp!" ”

In an instant, several men who were also holding Mo knives came out of the camp tent next to them, and they should all be from the Blood Knife Gate. Seeing this, Zou Hu was about to step forward to fight, but Ye Chen shouted behind him: "Run, there are many of them." ”

When Zou Hu heard this, he turned his head to look at Ye Chen, grabbed something from the wooden box next to him and turned around and ran.

The two of them ran wildly all the way, and the disciples of the Blood Knife Gate behind them chased after them. From time to time, the two of them had to dodge the crossbow arrows shooting from behind them, and Zou Hu shouted: "Ye Chen, run separately, otherwise none of them will be able to run." ”

Ye Chen replied: "There are six people behind him, let's them together." ”

Zou Hu was infected by his ambition, and immediately shouted: "! ”

As soon as Zou Hu finished speaking, he saw forty or fifty people running in front of him, all holding crossbows in their hands, and one of the leading men shouted: "You are not small, can you try one?" ”

Ye Chen and Zou Hu stopped, looked at the scene in front of them, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: "It's really hanging today." ”

There were forty or fifty people in the front, all holding repeating crossbows, and six people in the back, all of whom were holding repeating crossbows. No matter how strong the martial arts are, it is impossible to escape unscathed under such conditions.

Zou Hu glanced at Ye Chen and said, "Brother, you can't live together, but you can die together, I, Zou Hu, don't lose." After speaking, Zou Hu opened his posture and prepared to fight to the death.

Ye Chen, who was on the side, said angrily: "Don't mind brother, I don't want to die yet." As they spoke, they kept looking around, but there was nothing around them except a few large trees.

At this time, Ye Chen shouted to the big man in front of him: "Our brothers surrender, don't kill us." Before he finished speaking, Ye Chen had already thrown away the crossbow arrows and saber in his hand.

Zou Hu watched him finish all this, his eyes full of anger. For their dragon armor army, the loss of the sword and repeater in the hand of the soldier is equivalent to the loss of half a life. What's more, Ye Chen threw his saber and surrendered, which is insulting the word soldier.

Zou Hu shouted at Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, I am blind, and I stupidly treat you as a brother, you can do such a thing." ”

Ye Chen replied with a smile: "Don't be stupid Zou Hu, you haven't seen so many people, I don't want to die." After speaking, he turned his head and smiled at the leading man: "Big brother, don't be weird, my brother is like this." ”

The leading man squinted at him and said, "Who knows if you pretended to surrender, so let's do it, if you kill the person next to you with your own hands, I will accept your surrender." ”

Ye Chen didn't say a word, picked up the long knife on the ground and slashed at Zou Hu, but Zou Hu didn't expect that the brother who had just fought the enemy together would now kill him. He habitually raised the long knife in his hand and raised it above his head to block, who knew that Ye Chen's blow was very strong, Zou Hu couldn't parry, and knelt on the ground with a knee bang, he asked with anger in his eyes: "Ye Chen, are you crazy?" Really hands-on? ”

Ye Chen didn't pay attention to him, he only cared about the knife, slashing vertically, horizontally, turning around and jumping up and stabbing again, Zou Hu was red-eyed and resisted. Just between the swords and flints, the two fought faster and faster, and the battlefield became farther and farther away. At this time, Zou Hu suddenly took off the four-repeater crossbow on his waist and wanted to aim at Ye Chen to shoot. Ye Chen scolded: "Your uncle! Running quickly into the distance, Zou Hu was not stunned, and chased after him directly, and several crossbow arrows were nailed to the big tree where Ye Chen was just now.

Seeing this scene, everyone behind him kept laughing, and his former comrades now had to face each other with swords because of their lives. But the more I looked at the leader, the more I felt that something was wrong, how could these two people fight farther and farther away. Suddenly shouted: "It's not good, they have to run, chase quickly." ”

Ye Chen and Zou Hu saw that the people from the Blood Knife Gate behind them had chased them, so they fled. Zou Hu gasped behind Ye Chen and said, "If you hadn't just said the word "cooperation" when I knelt down, I really thought you were going to kill me to save my life." ”

Ye Chen replied with a smile in front of him: "If the play doesn't look like a little bit, can we run out of their encirclement now." And don't you see that they all have repeaters in their hands? If you're targeted by that thing, ten of you and I won't be enough. ”

Zou Hu admired the five bodies and said: "That is, you can come up with this method, Lao Tzu is convinced." ”

Ye Chen said: "Qin Xiaoqin, the inspector of Annan Province, knows about it, right?" ”

Zou Hu replied as he ran: "Who in our Annan Province doesn't know Qin Xiaoqin's name, a cow!" ”

Ye Chen said: "I came because he was cut down, and I learned this trick from him just now, and I will tell you slowly when I escape." ”

At this time, the sound of crossbow arrows piercing the sky kept sounding behind them, and there would be crossbow arrows nailed to the trunks of trees beside them through their ears, and the two of them did not look back, and ran forward vigorously. The pursuers behind were chasing after each other, and the distance was getting closer and closer, but Ye Chen and Zou Hu had no choice. Just when a few people were at a loss, a team of people suddenly came out from the side, all holding repeater crossbows, and shot at the Blood Knife Gate one by one, successfully slowing them down.

Ye Chen and Zou Hu also heard the movement, and looked back to check the situation as they ran. Who knew that these people were all brothers of the pro-soldier team, they didn't leave, they came back, and Zou Hu's eyes were wet. At the beginning, they were allowed to go, firstly, to report the news, and secondly, so that they could live. But now the brothers have arrived, and they have successfully relieved the pressure on them. Ye Chen also saw that these brothers were not afraid of life and death, turned his head and put the long knife across his chest, pointed it at the enemy, and rushed back without saying a word. Zou Hu saw Ye Chen rushing back, smiled and killed back.

There were fifty or sixty people from the Blood Knife Gate, and there were people around them who kept coming to join them, and the situation was grim. Ge Si, who led the pro-army team back to help, shouted: "You guys go quickly, don't let down the hearts of your brothers." ”

Zou Hu scolded: "Let your mother's stinky fart, I just asked you to go back and report the news, and when I return to the camp, I won't smoke you." ”

Ge Si bent down to avoid one person, and walked to Zou Hu's side back to back, and said: "I have already asked Xiao Liuzi to report the news, he is the youngest, and he has not yet married a family, even if he dies, at least he has to wait until he has married a girl and passed through the room." ”

Zou Hu glanced at him and didn't speak, and continued to swing his knife forward. Ye Chen on the side was deeply touched, what is a brother, this is it.

[The second one is a little late, forgive me, brothers, I will change it early tomorrow, I hope you will support]
