Chapter 0054: One More Less Road
Late at night, there was a mass grave outside Qinghe City.
The cold moon was like dew, reflecting the gloomy light on the white bones on the mass grave, but in the dense forest, several strong men lying in the grass didn't care at all, but their eyes were fixed on the cemetery fifty paces away from them.
The moonlight brought the figure closer, and under the moonlight, there were three people in the grass at this time, and the big man at the head spit out the dog's tail grass in his mouth, spat it, and scolded: "I said, little Wuzi, have you inquired clearly, is there really an entrance to Yihong Courtyard?" ”
"Brother, you can't be wrong, the little one dares to vouch for it with his head, there must be an entrance, you see, the time has passed, why don't we go into the cave to check it out?" Xiao Wuzi patted his chest and reassured repeatedly.
Indeed, there is a tunnel leading to Yihong Courtyard in the cemetery, and it is not difficult to find out in Qinghe, as far as the specific location is concerned, many catchers know that this is what Xiao Wuzi gave a catcher two dollars to inquire.
The strong man who was called the eldest brother was a little hesitant, but he was usually more cautious, and he still made up his mind after looking at the eager eyes of the two subordinates.
"Little Wuzi, the two of you go to the front to investigate, right! It's the open space in front of Ximenqing's tomb that you said, if there is, send me a signal. ”
Xiao Wuzi smiled: "Big brother, I've been waiting for a long time, it's the middle of the night, and I don't know it, so let's go investigate first." ”
The strong man nodded in agreement, and the two of them bent excitedly, approaching the cemetery in the next step of the moonlight, and the two stopped in front of a tombstone, and tried around with a simple knife, and not long after, the little five sons let out a cry of surprise.
"Fifth brother, here!"
"Whoosh!"
The bowstring sounded, and a heavy arrow burst through the air, piercing the throat of Xiao Wuzi's companion, and fell to the ground with a thud, and there was no more sound.
The little five sons were shocked, turned around and ran wildly in the direction of the dense forest.
"Whoosh!" Heavy arrows rang out again.
With a roar and a terrible howl, the running little five was shot to the ground.
The arrow pierced Xiao Wuzi's head, and it didn't reach the end of the arrow, and Xiao Wuzi fell to the ground heavily, blood flowed from his head, and his body twitched a few times before he moved.
The strong man who was lying in the dense forest saw this sudden change but could not do anything, and he did not dare to move in the grass, and looked ahead with a stunned face.
More than a dozen black shadows rushed out from behind the tombstone like lightning, a big man holding a Pu knife vigilantly observed the surroundings, and the rest of the crowd spread out in formation, fanning around.
The strong man lying in the dense forest was dripping at this time, it was obvious that the other party must be the catcher of Qinghe City, could this be the conspiracy of the government, there was an ambush here as early as possible, so that the people who had a bad idea of the treasure were wiped out here.
Before he had time to think about it, the strong man stood up and ran towards the depths of the dense forest at lightning speed.
An exclamation sounded, and several catchers from behind hurriedly chased after them.
A series of thunderbolts of arrows "swished" behind him, the strong man didn't care, just ran forward desperately, but how could a person run through the iron arrow, an iron arrow hit his back, the strong momentum made him fall to the ground, the back screamed constantly, and he was about to be discovered by the other party.
"Master Deng Zhai, don't panic, please follow me!" A masked man picked him up, carried him on his back, and ran deep into the forest.
Tian Heng stood in the middle of the cemetery, looking at Ximenqing's tombstone, and was stunned in his heart, it was not the dispatch of the county commander, he really didn't want to be here again.
He didn't understand, what kind of medicine was sold in this Jiang Lintian gourd, and let him use a letter to persuade Lu Qian to leave, this kid let himself sit in his chariot, but this is not in vain The county order Li Bingzhong, this time this Li Bingzhong won the Yihong Courtyard, and let the housekeeper Li Quan dig treasure inside, but let him be responsible for patrolling the periphery.
To Tian Heng's surprise, there were still thieves who didn't have long eyes and entered this pre-arranged bureau, but unfortunately they ran away just now.
"Transporting this corpse back to the county office, let people recognize whether it is a criminal of the court, if so, haha brothers have money for food and wine."
"Yes, Dutou." Catcher smiled and agreed.
After a while, several thieves returned quickly, bluntly saying that a famous thief had escaped, but Tian Heng sneered and said: "How can any thief escape, both thieves were shot by us, go, go back!" ”
Tian Heng disappeared into the darkness with more than a dozen catchers.
The black-clothed man ran wildly on his back, and gradually felt that there was no sound behind him, so he put the strong man down and asked, "Master Deng Zhai, are you seriously injured?" ”
The strong man struggled to stand up, he actually didn't suffer lightly, although he was hit by an arrow in the back, but it was not deep in the flesh, and he didn't worry about his life, so he hugged his fists and said: "Thank you for the rescue, I don't know how the hero knows my name Deng Long?" ”
"Haha, the name of the lord of Deng Zhai is well-known in the rivers and lakes, I am Qinghe Wu Song, and I came to rescue the lord of Deng Zhai on the order of my eldest brother. The owner of the village still left Qinghe as soon as possible, this is a conspiracy of the court, and he wants to wipe out the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and he hopes that the lord of Deng Zhai will be aware of it. Wu Song reminded Deng Long, but there was a drum in his heart, how did the eldest brother know the situation in Erlong Mountain in Qingzhou, this Deng Long was useless at first glance, why did the eldest brother let me save him.
"It turned out to be the second master of Wu, I also heard the name of the five tigers of Qinghe in Qinghe, since it was a conspiracy of the court, I went back to Erlong Mountain overnight, second master, Deng Long said goodbye!" Deng Long thought to himself that it was good to have a long life today, and he met a rescuer, otherwise he would have died here.
"That being the case, the owner of the village should be careful all the way." Wu Song also felt that the task was completed, and the other party would not stay long if he wanted to leave.
As soon as Deng Long arched his hand, he pulled out the iron arrow on his back, and then disappeared into the darkness.
Wu Song looked at Deng Long's elongated back in the moonlight, this Deng Long was also ruthless, he didn't snort when he pulled out the iron arrow, or the eldest brother was right, he could be the master of a village, there was always something outstanding, Wu Song took off his mask, revealed his handsome face, put his fingers in his mouth, and blew out a melodious whistle.
There was a tiger roar, yes, the saber-toothed tiger, which came out of the depths of the forest like a leisurely stroll, followed by the ten little slaves.
"Second Master Wu, where am I going now?" A servant asked, leaning down.
"Hehe, brothers, it's time to serve my eldest brother, follow me, let's ride a tiger at night, haha!" Saying that, Wu Song stepped on the back of the tiger and took the ten slaves in the direction of Xiangshan Temple under the cover of the moonlight.
Early in the morning, in Xiangshan Temple, the bell rang, and the monk Jingxuan was left by the host Jingzhi after finishing the morning class, and instructed him: "Jingxuan, Xiangguo Temple sent people to send eleven wandering orphans to become monks in our temple, you should shave them now." ”
As he spoke, Jing Zhi clapped his hands, and eleven and a half big boys walked out of the room, the oldest was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and most of them were twelve or thirteen years old, and they all clasped their palms together and saluted Jing Xuan.
In the early morning of this day, there were eleven little novices in Xiangshan Temple, and the abbot asked them to practice in the prayer tower outside the meditation room, and they were specially responsible for guarding the prayer tower on weekdays.
This made Jing Xuan very puzzled, although there were thousands of scriptures in the scripture tower, he had inspected most of them, they were all ordinary scriptures, and he hadn't even seen a single Bayeux scripture, which was still guarded? He couldn't figure it out.
Wu Song took ten slaves to leave home in Xiangshan Temple, but he had a top-secret mission, that is, to guard the opposite meditation hall for twelve hours a day, so that no one else could get close to the meditation hall, this was Jiang Lintian's death task for him.
Wu Song was next to a window in the tower room on the second floor, observing the meditation room opposite, which was a room, why was the eldest brother so nervous, could it be that everyone was hiding in the meditation room? No, Gen Jing Zhi is inside.
