Chapter 336: Ambush
At this moment, in the highest attic of the house in Tiewlozi Hutong, Sun Dan, Han Yue and Feng Zhen sat in front of the window and stared at the courtyard outside.
Yuan Chaozong's archery technique is really good, worthy of it, as Guo Xun's guard back then, the warrior who can serve as the duty of defending the military and Ding Hou is naturally not easy.
Since he decided to ambush the master sent by Huang Jin, this arrow is naturally very easy to use. If you can shoot a few enemies in one shot, the rest will be easy. The three heroes of the Mo family are good at melee combat, and with the long-range attack of the Yuan Dynasty Sect, everything has been arranged.
The current Yuan Dynasty Sect has already sat on a large podocarpus pine next to the west wing early. This big tree grows very luxuriantly, and if you don't pay attention to it, it's really not easy to see people.
Sun Dan also searched for a long time before he saw that the guy was sitting on a horizontal branch the thickness of an arm, holding a walking bow with a strong range and penetrating power in his hand, two sacks hanging at his feet, which were full of long arrows, in order not to be seen, the tail feathers of those long arrows were replaced with black carvings.
It is said that carved feathers are the best arrows. The long arrows with tail feathers made of eagle feathers can maintain a straight trajectory even when they are swept through the air, even in the strongest winds. If you change to a long arrow made of goose feathers or other feathers, the wind will be strong and it will fly in the air. Therefore, as a kind of military material, the price of carving is extremely high on the market, and it all depends on the import of grassland peoples to the Central Plains. This is also known as "Genghis Khan, who only knows how to bend the bow and shoot eagles", and it is estimated that Temujin wanted to take the feathers of sheep and eagles to make arrows.
The pine tree where the Yuan Dynasty Sect hid was on the right hand of the gate of the house, and if he wished, the entire courtyard was within the range of his arrows, and there were no dead ends.
The three heroes of the Mo family are hidden in the west and east wings respectively, and once the enemy appears, they will immediately go out.
In order to entrap Yun Chaozong and the three heroes of the Mo family, Sun Dan generously added money to these four Ming Dynasty underworld leaders, which stabilized them.
As long as this vote is completed and the two people who sell the medicine of "Rejuvenation Hall" are successfully sent to the south, these four people will be able to earn enough wealth to be useful.
Snobbery makes people fight, wealth moves people's hearts, although these four people know that the enemy is very strong, but no matter how they say, they have to fight.
Looking at the note that Chen Hong came out of the palace in his hand, Sun Dan groaned: Don't talk about the big eagle and the little eagle, this is the first and second best player under Huang Jin, and the four brothers of the Jin family are sharp soldiers who have fought on the battlefield for many years, these six people can be said to be the most useful thugs in Huang Jin's hands, and they are not easy to deal with. But if he wiped them out in one fell swoop, it would be like cutting off Huang Jin's hands, and it would not be very convenient for him to do things in the future.
It's just that among these six people, who should be the first to use the knife?
Sun Dan thought about it for a long time, and then decided to let Yuan Chaozong kill the four brothers of the Jin family first. Speaking of which, the martial arts of the big eagle and the little eagle should be stronger than the four brothers of the Jin family. However, the four brothers of the Jin family were rolled out of the battlefield in the sea of corpses and blood, and they were extremely experienced in martial arts.
As for the big and small eagles, it is enough to have the three heroes of the Mo family and Guo Pu to deal with, everyone is a good hand, a good hand is a good hand, four to two, you should be able to win.
Besides, in this attic, Sun Dan also brought Han Yue and Feng Zhen to sit in the town, it was really not good, let them take action to solve the battle. Six to six. The enemy is bright and I am dark, no matter how you look at it, Sun Dan will win this battle. Soon, Sun Dan made a decision to pass on his plan.
Speaking of which, Chen Hong's kid is really easy to use, such an important piece of information can actually be obtained in his hands, it seems that his idea of lurking Chen Hong by Huang Jin's side is very good. If it weren't for Lu Fang, Chen Hong's shadow would really have been sacrificed for no reason.
After reading the note in his hand, Sun Dan handed it to Han Yue beside him. Han Yue didn't speak, took it, put it in her mouth, chewed it thinly, and swallowed it in one gulp.
At this time, the two businessman-like people sitting in the corner of the attic were trembling all over, and there was a slight sound on the floor.
Sun Dan was startled by this sound, and frowned imperceptibly.
These two people are the treasurer and official of the Rejuvenation Hall, and these two were caught by Han Yue and tied up like two zongzi and thrown on the attic. Sun Dan felt that it was not a way to keep tying up like this, if it really caused their resistance, from Beijing to the south, thousands of miles, I was afraid that there would be many variables, and this matter had to be made willing.
Therefore, Sun Dan ordered them to be untied and let them wait in the attic.
Now, seeing that the two of them were terribly afraid, Sun Dan turned his head. Said mildly: "Ann shopkeeper." The little brother of the official
Hearing Sun Dan say this, Shopkeeper An's face moved his lips for a long time, but he couldn't say anything. The second official was still young and bolder, plucked up his courage, and shouted: "The king spares his life, the king spares his life!" ”
This sound alarmed the shopkeeper An, and the two knelt on the ground at the same time, and their heads hit the floor unkemptly: "The king spares his life!" ”
Han Yue's face changed, and she said in a low voice: "Get up, don't make such a loud noise, otherwise I will cut you." ”
The two of them were so frightened that they stood up.
Sun Dan laughed and said, "I'm not a king. I won't kill you. By the way, I'm idle now anyway, Lao An, and that official brother, let's talk. Sit, sit. He smiled politely at the two of them.
The two hurriedly sat down in their chairs.
Shopkeeper An muttered, "Didn't you arrest us for ransom?" ”
Han Yue sneered and scolded in a low voice: "My lord is very rich, how can he tie up your tickets, and how much money are you worth?" ”
Sun Dan asked gently: "Shopkeeper An, little brother official." How much do you get paid a month in a pharmacy? ”
Shopkeeper An hurriedly replied: "Master, the old man is just an ordinary shopkeeper, what's the matter." … After two or two months, he was an apprentice. No salary
"Oh, one, two, two, the income is not bad." Sun Dan said again: "I don't know who else is in your family?" ”
The shopkeeper replied: "I am from Tongpai, Henan, and I have an old wife and four children at home, the eldest is only twelve years old, and the youngest is four years old. Although I have one or two months a month, my children are getting older day by day, and they will start a family in the future, how can I have enough money. Speaking of this, Shopkeeper An let out a long sigh: "Born in a poor family, it's enough to have a bite to eat." I also worry too much, my children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and when it comes, I can't manage so much. ”
"If you give you a pin, you should be able to raise the children of your hometown smoothly, right? Sun Xiaodan asked softly.
Shopkeeper An said: "If I can open a pharmacy, it won't be too big, and I can naturally raise all the children, and our family can be reunited." Unlike now, the world is divided into two groups. It will take two or three years to see each other, and after meeting, the children don't know me as a father Speaking of this, Shopkeeper An couldn't help but wipe his tears.
Sun Dan looked at Guan Er and said with a smile: "Brother Guan, you are full of food alone, the whole family is not hungry, although you say that you have no salary, you can live a good life, you don't have to work as hard as the shopkeeper An, speaking of which, I also envy you very much."
Guan Xiaoer suddenly became a little worried: "But I can't say that, although I am young now, I always have to grow up one day." It's impossible to be a single for a lifetime. There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great. I am an orphan, but our official family cannot be cut off from me. But there is no money and no house, even if it is Sister Yao, she refuses to eat and drink with us
"It seems that it's all about money." Sun Dan smiled lightly, "You must wonder why I arrested you here?" ”
The two of them were already puzzled in their hearts, and asked at the same time, "Why?" ”
"You don't need to know why." Sun Dan said: "Actually, the best way is to kill you with a knife." However, saints have the virtue of a good life, and I have a suggestion. Do you want to hear it? ”
When the two heard that Sun Dan was going to kill someone, they were so frightened that they trembled: "We want to say, please ask the master to say it, but there is a life." Don't dare to disobey. ”
Sun Dan: "I'm going to open a warehouse in Suzhou, where there is still a shortage of manpower. In this way, you used to manage that place for me, and you usually collected some raw silk or something, will the silk business be done? ”
The shopkeeper An hurriedly said: "The business is all reasonable, and the left and right are just purchases, accounting, and transportation. ”
Guan Xiaoer also said: "I can learn, I can read, and I will plan to plate." ”
Sun Dan: "That's good, after you go, I will arrange for someone to buy a store and recruit people." Go and make me a large cabinet and a second cabinet. The salary, the big cabinet is five taels a month, the second cabinet is three taels, and there is a generous bonus at the end of the year. It's just that you need to keep your name anonymous, and you can't use your name for three years, and you can't go back to the north. ”
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
The two of them were both surprised and surprised, listening to what the person in front of them said, in a year, at least a hundred taels of silver can be obtained, which is the treatment only the shopkeeper of a big business, and the beauty difference that cannot be found with a lantern. Besides, they don't have a choice. The group of people in front of him are fierce and vicious, with a sword pinned to their waists, they are not kind people at first glance, and if they refuse, they will immediately end up falling to the ground.
"Okay, you just sit here and wait, and when this is over, I will send you out of the city to Suzhou. But if you see anything later, please don't shout. After placing these two people, Sun Dan's heart was relieved. As a modern person, he still can't treat human life like a mustard. Especially this kind of ordinary people, if you can give them a way to live, just give them a way to live.
"Here we are." Feng Zhen, who was beside him, suddenly whispered.
Sun Dan hurriedly looked forward with all his eyes, and in order to facilitate Yuan Chaozong to shoot the enemy, the courtyard was specially lit.
At this look, I saw a flash of light suddenly flickering at the crack in the door. This glimmer of light is so faint that if you don't pay attention to it, you really can't see it.
Sun Dan was also strange in his heart: What is this thing?
At this moment, the door was silently pushed open, and a short man with a short knife leaped in, sneakily observing the situation around him. The short knife in his hand shimmered in the light.
Seeing the door being pushed open silently, Sun Dan was so frightened that he almost screamed. He remembered that the door had been latched, but now it had been pushed open with a gentle push.
Only then did he realize that the glimmer of light just now was the reflection of the sharp blade in the enemy's hand. It turned out that the enemy had quietly inserted a knife into the crack of the door before entering the courtyard, cutting off the latch.
The latch of the courtyard door was more than a foot wide, and it was cut in half like tofu, which shows how sharp this short knife is, and how strong the enemy's hand is.
The person who comes is not a mediocre hand. This man who made the short knife was moving extremely fast, and he ran to the attic where Sun Dan was located with a rise and fall. He hid in the shadows of flowers and trees. Didn't show up for half a day.
However, Sun Dan was condescending and it was easy to see him clearly. This guy has a bare chin and no beard, and is obviously a eunuch in the palace. It's a short knife again, if you guess correctly, it should be the master named Xiaoying under Huang Jin.
Because Sun Dan did not give an order, Guo Pu, Mo Sanjie and Yuan Chaozong did not move.
There was a sudden eerie silence in the courtyard.
After a long time, Kitty got up straight from the flowers and trees and waved towards the gate of the courtyard.
In an instant, five figures silently rushed in from outside and ran to Kitty's side.
Among the five people, there was a man who looked like a eunuch, tall and thin, and carried a three-section stick in his hand, and the tip of the stick was still equipped with a spear, which should be a great eagle.
The other four are all burly and majestic, and their hands are all Ming Army-style Yanling knives.
It should be Jin Lichun, Jin Guxia, Jin Guqiu and Jin Gu
The six of them gathered together and whispered to the other five: "You have also seen the appearance and pattern of the prisoner, go find it immediately." If there are existing abnormal people, they will also be arrested. As for the maids and boys in the yard, they will all be killed, and they shall not show any abundance. ”
Sun Dan felt a chill in his heart when he heard this: This Huang Jin is really vicious enough, there are at least 20 people up and down in this house, and he can do it.
Fortunately, Sun Dan had evacuated all the family members in advance, otherwise he wouldn't know what the chaos would be like when the fight started.
"It's time to move." Sun Dan nodded at Han Yue.
Han Yue stretched out her hand. Grab a thin hemp rope beside you and pull it vigorously.
I could only hear a chaotic sound of "Ding Dang", and the brittle sound of the bell lock was all over the courtyard.
This sudden ringing made the six people under the attic startled at the same time, and it was still the great eagle who was clever and shouted: "The ambush is in the middle, disperse!" ”
But at this time, "Huh! With a bang, a pitch-black long arrow broke through the air, and in the middle was the vest of one of the Jin brothers standing at the back.
"Ahh A tragic cry came, and the man who was hit by the arrow seemed to have been whipped violently, and his body staggered forward, "Touch!" , with a small sound, fell earth-shattering in the flower bed.
Yuan Chaozong used a three-edged armor-piercing cone, and used a three-stone infantry bow in the army, even if the enemy wore armor, he would shoot through with an arrow.
What's more, the Yuan Dynasty Sect's arrow method is extremely accurate, and this arrow just hit the heart of the enemy.
Shoot the enemy's heart to pieces from behind.
The man only had time to scream, and then he was not breathing.
The big eagle and the little eagle were quite clever, and when they saw that the situation was not good, they did not delay, and at the same time jumped to the side.
The Jin brothers did not dare to hesitate and scattered in all directions.
It's just a big one. The man at the head hugged the deceased with tears on his face and shouted: "Lidong, Lidong, what's wrong with you?" "It turned out that the person who was killed by an arrow just now was Jin Lidong, the fourth eldest of the Jin family brothers.
Someone was shouting: "Liqiu, dodge quickly, the thief's archery is powerful!" ”
But it's still there.
It's "Whew!" again! With a bang, the pitch-black long arrow shot again, entering from Jin Liqiu's left temple, and then out of the temple, and he couldn't die anymore.
Sun Dan looked at the excitement in his heart: It's worth it, it's worth it, you can kill two good hands with one face, the more than 1,000 taels of silver of Yuan Chaozong are really worth it!
"Thieves are amazing!" The remaining two members of the Jin family screamed angrily, but they still shrank tightly under the flower bed, not daring to come out, for fear of being killed by the enemy's arrow. After shooting two arrows, the enemy also calmed down, and when he saw that there was no chance, he stopped shooting. Up to now, the Jin brothers and the big and small eagles have not received any trace of the enemy.
"Big Eagle, we have to find the enemy!" Kitty yelled. Generally speaking, the martial arts of archers are not very strong, as long as they are hidden by people, they can be easily killed.
"Okay, I'll go find someone and pay attention!" The eagle rushed out of the shadows with a three-knotched stick.
At this moment, another pitch-black feathered arrow was fired.
The big eagle is also clever, and in a flash, the arrow shot right from the left side of his thigh, "Burst". A bloody arrow appeared on the side again.
The pain made the eagle almost faint, but fortunately, the enemy was finally exposed.
The eagle let out a long roar: "The enemy is in the tree, knock him down!" "As long as the position of the archer is present, it will be easy to do, with the martial arts of everyone in the courtyard, and there is defense, and the enemy's hidden arrows are useless.
Hearing the shouts of the big eagle, Jin Lichun and Jin Lixia roared angrily, waved the Yanling knife in their hands and pounced. The two hated the archers on the tree to the bone, and immediately separated, covering each other on the left and on the right.
"Whew!" Another arrow was fired, and the target was Jin Lixia. It's a pity that Jin Lixia slashed the big knife in his hand at the last moment, "Ding! With a bang, the feather arrow hit the surface of the knife and splashed a little spark.
"Woohoo!" The sound of feather arrows breaking through the air continued, but all of them were blocked by the two brothers of the Jin family.
The Yuan Dynasty Sect on the tree was in a hurry, seeing that Jin Lichun and Jin Lixia were about to pounce under the tree, with their hand-to-hand fighting skills, they were not the opponents of these two. All his martial arts are on the bow, but the same white blade is just the level of an ordinary soldier.
At this moment, the track is exposed, and staying in the tree is simply a live target.
Thinking of this, Yuan Chaozong was a little flustered.
Over there, the Great Eagle finished shouting, "The enemy is in the tree, knock him down!" The window behind him suddenly "boomed". With a thud, a huge black shadow smashed into his back with a fierce wind.
The big eagle screamed badly, it turned out that there were still people hiding in this room.
He did not panic, he threw off the three-section stick in his hand, connected it into a soft spear, grabbed the tip of the stab, and stabbed the enemy in the face.
Under normal circumstances, when encountering the same way of fighting with the Great Eagle, the enemy will choose to retreat, and his sudden blow will be broken.
It's a pity that the big eagle's shot came out empty.
At the same time, a heavy weapon slammed into his back, shattering his back.
Flying forward softly, the eagle had time to take a look behind him. But I saw that it was a thick mixed yuan card that hit me. And the one who made this heavy weapon was a statue of Confucianism who was no more than 1.30 meters tall.
No wonder this shot missed, it turned out to be a Moru! A shot that should have stabbed the enemy in the face could have passed over the head of this Zhuru.
"Lao Guo is here to take your life!" Guo Pu, who had been hiding in the shadows, suddenly flashed out like a night owl, and then came first, pinching the eagle's neck into two with one claw.
