Volume 4: Fighting against the King of Luoyang Chapter 223: The Four Devils Besiege the Black Boss
The black-headed man staggered into the woods while holding a wine gourd, and when he came to a clearing in the forest, he suddenly stopped, and then shouted to the back: Hey, I have followed my old man all the way, come out.
With a sinister laugh of "hehe", an old man in red clothes, thin and thin, like a bamboo pole, suddenly appeared behind the black-headed tuo.
Heitou Tuo took a sip of wine, turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile: Who am I, it turned out to be the famous corpse king, but when did you change your career to become a spy again.
Hearing this, the corpse king smiled dryly and said: Xitou Tuo is Xitou Tuo, the old man was very cautious and cautious along the way, but he was still discovered by you, admire, admire.
Hearing this, the black-headed man smiled strangely, and suddenly raised his head and shouted into the air: Don't hide the other three, let's show up together.
As the black-headed voice landed, three more old men of different heights, fat and thin, fell from the east, south, and north, three directions.
The black-headed Tuo looked at the three old men and said with a smile: Yo, it turned out to be the Heavenly Demon, the Earth Worm, and the Ghost Fox, plus the Corpse King, you four brothers have made it up, by the way, why are you four brothers so tall in Yaxing today, let's go to the woods together.
Hearing this, the short and fat ground worm said coldly: We came here with you, not to visit the woods.
The black head made a very strange appearance and said: Follow me into the forest, what, you want to invite me to drink, but not tonight, my old man is not free, let's do it another day.
The tall and thick ghost fox snorted coldly and said: Who wants to invite you to drink, the four of us are here specifically for your life, you just wait to die.
Hearing this, the black-headed tuo made a look of incomprehension and said: You want my life, why? I don't owe you any money.
The tall and thin Heavenly Demon said coldly: You have repeatedly spoiled our affairs, how can you let you live again, let's say, do you end yourself by yourself, or let the four of us do it.
Hearing this, the black-headed Tuo smiled coldly and said: Thanks to what you said, four famous people in the rivers and lakes deal with me alone, and I am not afraid that the people in the rivers and lakes will laugh at you.
The Corpse King smiled and said: Xitou Tuo, you don't need to provoke us with words, we won't fight you one-on-one, our task today is to kill you, not to compete with you.
The black-headed Tuo said with a look of indifference: Kill me, who do you think you are, asking for life is impermanent, hum! I don't know who killed whom.
As soon as the words landed, I saw that he suddenly threw the wine gourd in his hand into the air, and the wine gourd flew into the air for a few feet and then burst with a "bang", and a gourd of wine immediately turned into a day's water droplets and shot in all directions.
The four of them knew that the water droplets of this day were not soft water at the moment, but a sharp arrow feather, as long as they took a drop, the body was immediately a blood hole, and they were busy swinging their sleeves to block the water droplets that came over, and the water droplets shot out after a while of chaos disappeared, but the black head in the circle was gone.
Seeing this, the heavenly demon angrily scolded: This treacherous ghost head let him run away.
The Corpse King smiled coldly and said, "Run, run, but I don't know how far he can run."
Hearing this, the ghost fox was stunned and asked: Why, could it be that the corpse king did something on that old man's body?
The Corpse King said: He has been poisoned by the dried corpse I scattered, and if he doesn't understand it for two hours, he will become a dry corpse.
As he spoke, he waved his hand and said: Chase.
After that, he chased in the direction where the black head was walking, and the other three people followed suit.
Bao Zheng, Zhanzhao, Eighth Sister, Ninth Sister, and Du Qi's sister-in-law came to the county office, and saw that there were four yacha guards with swords on both sides of the gate, and some white-clothed girls with swords entered and exited from time to time in the door.
After watching for a while, Bao Zheng whispered to the four people: Let's go, go to the back of the county office.
The five of them turned along the big wall to the back, and after a while they came to the outside of the big wall in the backyard of the county government, and suddenly heard a crisp sound of weapons hitting weapons and a woman chattering from inside the wall.
The five stood down and listened carefully into the wall.
After listening for a while, Zhanzhao turned his head to look around, and saw a big tree not far away, the branches and leaves of the canopy were very luxuriant, Zhanzhao pointed to the big tree with his hand and whispered: My lord, I'll go up and take a look.
Bao Zheng nodded and advised: Be careful, don't let people find out.
Zhan Zhaodao: I know.
With that, he walked under the big tree, pulled his body up, and went up to the tree.
Bao Zheng and the other four people pretended to speak, and looked at the wind to the left and right.
About a quarter of an hour later, Zhan Zhao jumped down from the tree and whispered in front of Bao Zheng: "My lord, inside the wall is a courtyard, there are thirty or forty white-clothed women practicing swords, and each of them is very swordsmanship.
Hearing this, Bao Zheng nodded and said: It seems that it was they who assassinated us last night.
After that, he waved his hand and said: Let's go, let's go back.
The five of them walked back with their legs drawn.
The black-headed tuo rushed all the way to the gate of the secret village, and as soon as he stood down, his body trembled, and his legs fell to the ground weakly.
The gate of the village suddenly opened, and eight monks rushed out from inside and quickly surrounded the black-headed tuo who had fallen to the ground.
The head monk is the first Zhijing of the Shaolin Temple Luohan Hall, he walked over cautiously to the black-headed Tuo with a wooden stick, and when he recognized it as the black-headed Tuo, he couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly asked: Xitou Tuo's seniors, what happened to you ------ you?
After that, he threw away the wooden stick in his hand and went to help the black-headed tuo.
The black-headed man hurriedly waved his hand and said: Don't touch me, I have been poisoned by the corpse king's corpse.
With that, he struggled to his feet from the ground.
Hearing this, Zhijing was shocked: What, senior Xitou Tuo, you have been poisoned by the corpse king.
The black head said: I met the four demons on the way here, fought with them, and accidentally fell into the corpse king's corpse poison.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he ordered: Go and set up the formation, and they will chase after them in a while.
After that, he led the monks to the village.
As soon as you enter the gate, it is a very large and flat field, and at this time, there are queues of people wearing various colors on all sides of the field. In the center of the venue, a platform of more than one zhang high and several zhang square circle was erected, and the flags of the twenty-eight houses were planted on the four sides of the platform, and fifteen Shaolin monks holding wooden sticks stood around the wooden platform.
The black-headed tuo jumped onto the high platform, sat down on a wooden chair, and then reached into his arms and took out a white porcelain vase, looked at it, and muttered: Fortunately, my old man took precautions in advance, otherwise he would have really become a dry corpse.
Uncorked the bottle and took out three black pills and stuffed them into his mouth and swallowed them, then picked up a small yellow flag and raised it into the air, the strange thing is that at the moment when he raised the flag, the small yellow flag emitted a strange bright circle of light, and then he waved it a few times, and the team on the field moved, and with the action of the team, a thick fog appeared in the array, and the entire stockade was submerged in a short time.
The ghost fox, the earth worm, the corpse king, and the heavenly demon followed and chased to the gate of the secret village, and saw that the door of the village was wide open, and there was no one, and the four people stopped suspiciously, and then looked at the village with their eyes, but the village was dark and foggy, and nothing could be seen.
The ghost fox asked the three of them, "What is this place?" How eerie.
Heavenly Demon Dao: It's a village of the beggar gang, but it's been abandoned for several years, so the ghost head can't hide in this village, right?
The Corpse King said: He just got into the mouse hole, and I will dig him out.
After that, he pulled his legs and rushed to the village, but as soon as he walked into the gate, he suddenly retreated.
Seeing this, the ground worm asked strangely: Brother corpse, why did you return again? What's wrong?
Corpse King: It's a little wrong.
As he spoke, he looked up at the full moon in the sky and said: There is a moon in the sky tonight, and the ground is very bright, we should be able to see everything in the village when we stand in front of the door, but why can't we see anything in the village, could it be that the old thing is doing something again?
Heavenly Demon Yun looked carefully at the village, and suddenly, his body shook and shivered, and he hurriedly said: "It's not good, there is a very powerful ambush in the village, it must be Xitoutuo who is playing ghosts."
Worm said: Oh, I see, no wonder that ghost head ran away as soon as he met us, it turned out that he wanted to lure us into the stockade to plot against us.
The Corpse King asked, "Can you see what kind of ambush is in the stockade?"
Heavenly Demon Dao: I can't see it, but I can feel that there is a very powerful formation inside.
Corpse King Road: Today, we didn't bring our own subordinates, so we shouldn't be in danger.
After a pause, he said: That old thing has been poisoned by my dry corpse, and if you don't die, you have to become a waste, we don't need to fight with a dying person, today's task is also successfully completed, let's go, let's go back to Jiaojiao.
So the four of them turned around and walked back, and disappeared in an instant.
Li Yinglong accompanied Zhao Heng out of the East City Gate, and Zhao Heng's four gray-clothed servants followed behind the two.
After leaving the city gate, Zhao Heng stood and said to Li Yinglong: Lord Li, stop, don't send it any further.
Li Yinglong said: Okay, my brother wants to stay with me for a few days to visit Luoyang City, but he will be in a hurry to return in just one day.
Zhao Hengdao: Originally, I planned to stay for a few more days, but after hearing you about the king of Luoyang the night before, I ------ that my son felt that the matter was too important, and he had to go back to Beijing as soon as possible to report to the emperor, so as to take precautions as soon as possible.
Li Yinglong said reluctantly: I really don't want you to go, but, brother, you are right, you have to report the matter of the king of Luoyang to the emperor as soon as possible, otherwise, if the king of Luoyang suddenly rebels, it will be bad if he is caught off guard.
Zhao Hengdao: That's what I mean.
After that, he paused, and said: King Luoyang must know that you are my ------, and you are a nail sent by the emperor to deal with him, so your situation is very dangerous.
After thinking for a while, he continued: If the situation is urgent and you need the support of the army, you can take the mother ------ and take the jade plate given to you by the queen mother to go to the northern camp outside the city to transfer troops to the king commander.
After saying that, he reached into his arms and took out a folded piece of paper and handed it to Li Yinglong: This is a letter I wrote to the commander of the Beidaying King, and if you give him this letter when the time comes, he will definitely listen to your transfer.
Li Yinglong took the letter and didn't look at it, stuffed it into his arms and said: Thank you brother for your concern, if you have time to go out in the future, I will definitely go to Kyoto to see you.
Zhao Heng smiled and said: There should be.
Then, he turned around and got on the horse, and then waved his hand to Li Yinglong and said: Master Li, I'm leaving, we'll have a date later.
With that, the whip horse drove away, and the four gray knights followed him.
It wasn't until Zhao Hengyi walked away without a trace that Li Yinglong turned around and walked towards the city.
