Chapter 523: Destined to die like this

Adou jumped into the hole, and suddenly he couldn't see his five fingers, and it was completely dark inside. This is the third time that Li Zicheng has chased Li Zicheng into the cave, and Adou has been prepared for a long time, and immediately took out the fire fold and blew it up.

The moment the fire flashed, I saw that the tunnel had been stretching forward, and Li Zicheng had long since disappeared.

"Damn Li Zicheng, burrowing holes in the ground all day long......" Adou muttered disdainfully, and then chased after him without thinking.

Li Zicheng looked flustered at the moment, the first time he encountered death so close to him, which made him start to panic a little. There were a few times when he almost fell, and the hole was pitch black, but he didn't need to know the way, he kept running forward, obviously familiar with this place.

Adou ran wildly and chased straight up, but unfortunately when he caught up to the exit, he was still a step too slow, and Li Zicheng disappeared from his sight again.

"Damn ......"

scolded in his heart, but Adou didn't dare to slack off, and immediately began to look for the traces left by Li Zicheng.

At this time, Cheng Zuo and Zhuang Yexiang had also arrived.

"How is it, did you catch Li Zicheng?" Zhuang Yexiang saw Adou and immediately asked.

Adou shook his head: "No, he still escaped." ”

A look of disappointment suddenly flashed on Zhuang Yexiang's face, but Cheng Zuo persuaded: "It doesn't matter, now Li Zicheng is alone, and he can't run far." ”

Zhuang Yexiang hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed with Cheng Zuo's words, and then the three of them began to track Li Zicheng's traces together.

This chase made the three of them completely unexpected, and they chased for three days until they left Liangshan and came to the plain outside.

Adou frowned and looked into the distance, and as far as he could see, there was a small village.

"Why don't we go to the village ahead and take a look." Adou said in a deep voice.

"Li Zicheng has been on the run for so long, and the dry food on his body should have been exhausted, if he really came in this direction, he should enter the village." Cheng Zuo expressed his judgment.

"Then what are we waiting for, hurry up." Zhuang Yexiang still holds on to the last glimmer of hope.

There are almost no human tracks in the mountains, and a small abnormality can be found as long as you look carefully. But when you get down the hill and there are people, it's almost impossible to find another trace of a person.

The three of them exchanged glances, then pulled their legs and headed towards the village.

With a distance of less than a kilometer, the three of them can reach it in an instant. The village is indeed very small, almost less than twenty households, and the arrival of Chengzuo made the people in the village very nervous.

Seeing three guys coming from a distance with weapons, the whole village had already been prepared, and more than a dozen young men in the village were already holding hunting bows and waiting for them.

Seeing the situation in front of them, Cheng Zuo and the three of them didn't dare to be careless, and stopped a hundred meters outside the village. Cheng Zuo shouted loudly to the people in the village: "We are officers and soldiers, and we are tracking down a group of bandits, you don't need to be nervous. ”

An old man appeared at the gate of the village, and after carefully examining the three of them, he said, "Whether you are officers and soldiers or bandits, we are isolated from the world and do not interact with any outsiders. Please leave now, or don't blame us for being rude. ”

The old man's tone was very tough, and there was no room for negotiation at all. And those villagers are also starting to move, and there is a possibility that they will swarm at any time.

Cheng Zuo frowned, these mountain people really rarely interact with the outside world, except for the exchange of daily necessities at the market. They hardly leave the outside world, living in the mountains day after day, year after year.

Nowadays, there are many wars in the outside world, and more and more families or gangs of people have fled to such mountains and wilderness. Although life is hard, it is better to have no worries about life.

"Don't be suspicious, elders, there is indeed no malice outside this time. And with your manpower alone, to be honest, you are no match for us at all. We are only here to look for a bandit we are hunting, and if the elders see a person fleeing in panic, they want to let us know. Cheng Zuo did not have a seizure, but calmly persuaded him.

The old man stared at Cheng Zuo and the three of them with his old eyes open for a long time, and his face was full of hesitation. After some consideration, he relented and said, "There is indeed a person who escaped from the mountains into our village just now, and now we have arrested him. If this is the person you are looking for, then the old man can hand him over to you. ”

Cheng Zuo and Zhuang Yexiang were overjoyed when they heard this, and Cheng Zuo hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "Thank you so much, elder, as long as this person is the person we are looking for, after catching him, we will leave immediately, and we will never disturb your life." ”

The old man nodded and muttered to the man beside him in a low voice. After the man agreed, he turned and strode towards the village.

Soon after, the man led two villagers and dragged a man who did not know life and death to the gate of the village.

The old man saw that the man he had just caught was already spitting blood at this moment, and he seemed to have died of anger. Suddenly frowned, and asked the man who went to lead people: "Has he lost his breath?" ”

The man hesitated for a moment, then went up to check in person, and after a while, the man bowed to the old man: "Patriarch, this person has lost his breath." ”

The old man frowned, feeling a little uneasy. He thought that Cheng Zuo and the dead man in front of him were in a group, and if he knew that the man was dead, he didn't know if he would be annoyed and angry, so he would fight.

Without waiting for the old man to ponder any further, Zhuang Yexiang and Cheng Zuo had already discovered at this time that the man who was brought out was Li Zicheng, who had been on the run.

"Elder, this is the person, I hope you can hand him over to us." Cheng Zuo immediately demanded loudly to the old man.

"This man had just suddenly rushed out of the mountains, and during that time, he still had a weapon in his hand. It frightened the women and children in the village, thinking that it was the arrival of the bandits, which caused the siege of our villagers. In a panic, the villagers did not grasp the proportion, and an arrow just hit the man's chest, and now the man has lost his breath. The old man explained in detail the cause of Li Zicheng's death.

Hearing that Li Zicheng was accidentally killed by the villagers in front of him, Chengzuo and Zhuang Yexiang faced each other. And Adou was also helpless, but he didn't expect that the people he had chased after a lot of hard work would finally die at the hands of these villagers.

After the three of them glanced at each other, Cheng Zuo still opened his mouth to respond: "This person is a thief, and now that he is dead, it doesn't matter." As soon as the elder hands us over his body, we will leave immediately, and we will never come to disturb your life in the future. ”

The old man was overjoyed when he heard this, there was nothing to worry about now, and immediately asked the man to send Li Zicheng's body over.
