Chapter 43: Jedi Escape Red Eye Peak (1)

"Put down your arms and surrender quickly, but you will not die, otherwise, you will be killed!" On the stone road at the bottom of the valley more than ten meters ahead, a group of Japanese soldiers has already lined up in formation, a row and a half squatting on the ground in front, a row in the back is standing, and the stones on both sides of the canyon are also full of Japanese soldiers, they are all holding bows and crossbows, and they are already ready to fly, pointing directly at Luo Shiyin, Xiu Neng and others.

"Don't act rashly, everyone!" Luo Shiyin waved his hand to signal everyone to stop walking. Xiu Neng glanced at the warrior monks under his command, and more than a dozen monks holding Qi Mei sticks understood and quietly moved to the front of the team, using their bodies to protect Luo Shiyin, Shi Lang and other team members.

The pursuers behind were also rapidly approaching this side, and their shouts could already be faintly heard.

"Old hero, is there any other way to go?" Luo Shiyin whispered to the abbot beside him.

Xiu Neng didn't answer immediately, he looked up at the surrounding mountains, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he whispered to Luo Shiyin: "Take about five steps back, there is a stone crack on the right cliff, and you can climb the Red Eye Peak by drilling through the stone crack along a small stone step." This red-eyed peak is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it can be said that it is a one-man pass, and it is impossible to open it. ”

"Okay, then let's go to the Red Eye Peak!" Faced with the predicament in front of him, Luo Shiyin can only take one step at a time, and first get rid of the unfavorable situation of being attacked from front to back.

"Say it again, the people on the other side, immediately disarm and surrender, otherwise, you will have to release the arrows!" The Japanese soldiers on the opposite side once again shouted to persuade them to surrender.

"The warrior monks in the front row listen to my orders and take out the stick!"

With Xiu Neng's order, more than a dozen Jinguang Temple warrior monks in the front row of the team exerted their strength together, and at the same time threw the Qi Mei stick in their hands to the Japanese soldiers holding bows and crossbows on the opposite side.

In an instant, more than a dozen eyebrow sticks spun rapidly in the air and whistled towards the enemy soldiers on the opposite side. At the same time, the arrows in the hands of the Japanese soldiers on the opposite side also shot over.

I only heard the chaotic sound of "ping-pong, ping-pong", and the whirling Qimei stick blocked some of the arrows shot by the Japanese soldiers in mid-air, and then hit the enemy soldiers on the opposite side with the whistling wind.

Before the Japanese soldiers could shoot a second wave of arrows, they were hit by the fast-flying Qi Mei sticks, and their formation was immediately disrupted.

Of course, the Qi Mei stick failed to block all the arrows that flew in, and several warrior monks in the front row were injured by the flying arrows.

"Quick, retreat, go up to the Red Eye Peak!" Hunnen shouted and led everyone backwards.

From the canyon to Chiyan Peak is a narrow stone crevice.

Just as Xiu Neng, Luo Shiyin and others were retreating into the stone crevice in an orderly manner, enemy colleagues from the front and rear directions rushed over. Several warrior monks in charge of the broken rear did not have time to retreat into the stone crevice, and were hit by the bird's gun projectiles fired by the Japanese army, and fell to the ground and died.

Chiyan Peak was originally the location of a military station during the period of King Myeongjong of Joseon, the military station was built on the waist of the peak of Chiyan Peak, it is a circular platform dug by hand, and there are several stone houses built on the west side of the platform, which have collapsed due to disrepair.

On the east side of the platform is a huge pile of stones, which should have been used to guard the soldiers during the war.

On the north side is a stone path that slopes downward, which is also the only mountain path to the Red Eye Peak, which is also artificially excavated. The stone steps are steep and narrow, allowing only one person to pass. The stone steps, which are almost straight up and down, are flanked by a bottomless abyss.

Luo Shiyin, Xiu Neng and others climbed the platform of Chiyan Peak from the stone steps on the north side. As soon as they had settled several wounded warrior monks, the pursuers from behind shouted and rushed over. Huno ordered his warrior monks to move the stones piled up on the east side of the platform to the entrance to the north side of the platform.

"Rush up and kill them all!" Under the Red Eye Peak, Izumo Kumi commanded his men to start an attack on the Red Eye Peak.

Wielding swords and guns, the soldiers climbed up one after the other along the stone steps under the Red Eye Peak.

Guns and bullets from the bottom of the peak were constantly being shot up, and several Jinguangji warrior monks hid behind several boulders, ready to push the boulders in front of them down the stone steps at any time.

"Wait until you're closer!" Hunnen whispered orders to a few warrior monks hiding behind boulders.

Seeing a team of Japanese soldiers breathless, they were about to climb onto the platform.

"Put!" Listening to Hueneng's order, several boulders rolled down the stone steps and smashed into the Japanese soldiers on the narrow stone steps.

With a scream like a ghost crying wolf, all the Japanese soldiers on the stone steps were smashed to the bottom of the peak, either dead or injured.

The Japanese launched several more attacks in quick succession, all of which were repulsed by the boulders that flew down from the platform.

"Stop the attack and see if there is any other way out around the peak." Kumi Izumo gave orders to her subordinates, and then, she found a safe place to sit down and rest for a while.

"Report, there is only one stone step to climb this mountain peak, and all other directions are cliffs." After a while, the Japanese soldiers who had been sent to observe the terrain ran back.

"Send me an order to send a group of soldiers to guard the stone steps ahead, and no one above them will be allowed to escape. I'm going to trap them alive! The others waited to rest in place. Izumo Kumi looked at the ladder-like stone steps in front of her, and did not dare to attack rashly. When she saw that it was getting dark, she ordered her soldiers to repair and stand by.

On the platform of Red Eye Peak, Ye Ruliu helped several injured people bandage their wounds. Seeing that the Japanese had stopped attacking, everyone looked for a place to sit down and took out the dry food and water in their pockets to satisfy their hunger.

"I said Brother Xie Yuan, what did you say was the fog in the river? Why is it that there is fog in the river and not anywhere else? This doesn't make sense! Shi Tianji never figured out where the fog in the river came from.

"This is a common technique used by the Japanese ninjas, and it is said that they will use a special blowing action of dry ice to produce a large amount of mist. The ninjas in the river must have filled dry ice with the flowers they disguised on the river, which not only appeared to produce mist, but also had a poison bolt launcher attached. "Xie Yuan has a certain understanding of this kind of Japanese ninjutsu.

"His grandmother's, there are quite a lot of ninjas in this country!" Shi Tianji chewed a few mouthfuls of dry food fiercely and swallowed it violently.

"Actually, it's nothing, a lot of things that these Japanese people have learned from our country. It's just that they're very good at innovating what they've learned, so they're surpassing us in many ways. Xie Yuan said.

Seeing that Xie Yuan and Shi Tianji were chatting energetically, Ba Wu rushed over to join in the fun.

"I said Brother Bau, the two hits you played on the pontoon bridge are really amazing, I admire and admire!" Shi Tianji praised Bau while nibbling on dry food.

"Generally, how can your brother's thunder be powerful." Bau said modestly.

"Bau is so powerful without being taught by someone these two times, he can be called a 'natural gate' hero!" Xie Yuan was also amazed by Bau on the side.

"But when you played those two blows, your big head swayed from side to side, and I watched from the side, and I was really worried that it would fall off your little neck." Shi Tianji continued.

"you, are you praising me or hurting me?" Bau was a little uncomfortable when he heard Shi Tianji's words, so he got up with dry food and water and wanted to leave.

"You've offended Bau." Xie Yuan poked Shi Tianji with his hand and whispered.

"What a cautious eye! I didn't say you were ugly, I just said what he looked like at the time. Shi Tianji said half-explaining, half-reproaching.

"Say I'm ugly, let's look at yourself in the mirror!" Bau put down the sentence and got up and walked away.

"I'm a mouthful!" Shi Tianji raised his left hand with some remorse and slapped it on his face.

Luo Shiyin, Xiu Neng and Shi Lang were not with everyone, and the three of them circled around the platform twice.

"Is there any other way down this Red Eye Peak?" Luo Shiyin asked for recuperation.

"No, you see, except for the stone steps on the north side, everything else is full of cliffs and abysses." Hunnen replied.

"It seems that the Japanese are trying to trap us." Shi Lang interjected.

"yes, we have to find a way to get out as soon as possible, the longer we stay here, the worse it will be for us." Luo Shiyin said with some concern.

"Then why is this peak called Red Eye Peak?" Shi Lang asked for recuperation.

"The reason why this peak is called Red Eye Peak is because the rock on the south side of the top of this peak is inlaid with two red crystals like human eyes, and it is said that whenever the night falls, these two crystals will reflect two faint rays of light under the illumination of the moon." Hunnen replied.

At this time, the sky had completely darkened, and the words of Hunneng aroused the curiosity of Luo Shiyin and Shi Lang, and the three of them walked towards the south side of the platform.

A cool night breeze blows in the mountains and forests in the distance, and a bright moon rises from behind the mountain peaks in the southeast.

Luo Shiyin, Xiu Neng, and Shi Lang stood on the platform on the south side of Chiyan Peak and looked up. Sure enough, in the moonlight. Two human-eye-shaped hedrons on the rocks at the summit reflected two reddish rays of light into the night sky to the northwest. At this time, the Red Eye Peak is like a giant standing in the dark night, proud of the mountains.

"Sure enough, it lives up to its name." Luo Shiyin sighed.

"Are the two hedras in the shape of a human eye man-made or natural?" Shi Lang muttered to himself.

"I don't know." Hunneng thought that Shi Lang was asking himself, so he replied.

"Okay, no matter what it is, let's rest and rest first." After a day of running, Luo Shiyin felt a little tired.

Ye Ruliu had just dressed the wound of the last wounded man, and when he saw Shi Lang coming, he walked with Shi Lang to a cleaner place and sat down to eat some food.

"Tired after a day of walking, right?" Shi Lang asked Ye Ruliu.

"It's okay."

"Do you think Liu Yingying will get into trouble by helping us?" Shi Lang seemed to be still haunted by the death of Zheng Zai and his wife, and in the dead of night, he naturally thought of another North Korean friend who had helped the team.

"I care so much about people. Be careful that I'm jealous. Ye Ruliu said jokingly.

"It just so happens that this dry food is bland and tasteless, wouldn't it be nice to have some condiments like vinegar?" Shi Lang deliberately made Ye Ruliu happy.

"Okay, some vinegar, and some chili!" Ye Ruliu said, twisting Shi Lang's arm suddenly.

"Ouch!" Shi Lang screamed exaggeratedly, making Ye Ruliu giggle.

"Don't worry, Liu Yingying will not be in danger, with Governor Konishi here, no one dares to do anything to her. No matter what Yukicho Konishi says, he won't do anything to his daughter, right? After laughing, Ye Ruliu said to Shi Lang in an affirmative tone.

"Brother Xie Yuan must be in unrequited love at this time." Shi Lang said.

"I really hope they both have a happy outcome." Ye Ruliu clasped her knees with her hands and looked at the night in the distance.

"Definitely, and us." After Shi Lang finished speaking, he glanced at Ye Ruliu beside him.

Ye Ruliu reached out to hold Shi Lang's arm, leaned her head on Shi Lang's shoulder, and quietly enjoyed the warmth from her side.

After a while, Ye Ruliu said: "I hope we can end this war earlier." Watching so many people around me fall one by one, I sometimes wonder why the Japanese people had to launch this war of aggression and killed and injured so many people, just to occupy an extra piece of land that did not belong to them? Don't those who start wars think about how many wives and families have been separated because of this? ”

"In fact, this is rooted in the selfish expansion of the selfish desires of some so-called aggressors with grand plans, and a small small land of the Japanese state can no longer contain their inflated so-called ambitions, and they can only satisfy their inflated ambitions by invading other countries."

"Brother Shi Lang, do you think we can leave this Red Eye Peak smoothly?" Ye Ruliu asked softly.

"Don't worry, with the commander here, no matter how big the hurdle can be overcome. We will definitely leave this place safely. Shi Lang said affirmatively.

"I hope so." Ye Ruliu said faintly.

Shi Lang heard a hint of helplessness from Ye Ruliudi's tone, so he changed the topic, and said to Ye Ruliu: "Do you know why this mountain peak is called Red Eye Peak? ”

"I don't know, why?"

"Let's go, I'll take you to see a spectacular scene." Shi Lang didn't answer directly, he stood up and pulled Ye Ruliu up and walked towards the south side of the platform.

At this time, it was almost sunset, and a full moon hung high in the sky.

"Look up." Shi Lang pulled Ye Ruliu to the south side of the platform, and he pointed to the peak of Chiyan Peak and said.

Ye Ruliu looked up and saw two light red rays of light coming down from the rocks on the south side of the peak, shining on the cliff not far away.

"What's going on?" Ye Ruliu asked in surprise.

Shi Lang told Ye Ruliu about the origin of the name of Chiyan Peak that he had heard from Xiu Neng.

"Is it so amazing?" After listening to Shi Lang's introduction, Ye Ruliu couldn't help but take a closer look at the two magical reflections.

At this time, the moon was hanging in the night sky directly in front of the body. Ye Ruliu followed the two reflected rays of light and looked at the opposite cliff. Under the bright moonlight, the two beams of light shone on the two ancient pine trees on the opposite cliff, and the branches of the two ancient pines were lush and upright, which was extremely conspicuous.

Ye Ruliu's heart moved, she turned to Shi Lang and said, "Listen to Abbot Xiuneng say that this was once a military station?" ”
