Chapter 22: Treasure Hunting

The people who came were a large group of people in black, more than a hundred people. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 He doesn't know the info leader. However, the man showed his waist card, but he was startled: the waist card was the waist card of His Majesty the Emperor of the Palace.

Captain Wang San hurriedly returned the waist card to the visitor and opened the city gate. This time, the visitor didn't give him a dime.

Wang San respectfully sent this group of people away, not daring to say it, but secretly thought in his heart: It's not as good as those people in Fanbang, stingy.

On the official road from Chang'an to Weinan, where you are about to reach Lintong, there is a village called Xigou Village. There is a ditch in the name of the village, but it is surrounded by a horse and a flat river, and I really don't know how the name of this Xigou came about.

The moon is on the last day of each lunar month, and the moon is at the moment when it turns to the new moon at the end of the last quarter of the month, and it is basically invisible. In addition to special reasons such as cloudy days, this day is also the darkest, so I can't see my fingers, and it is said that it is this night.

Today is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the last day of the lunar calendar of the year, and the moon is hidden and the stars are scarce. It was dark, and a northwesterly wind was blowing.

The night wind howled, blowing the dead branches of the bushes on both sides of the pipes, making a noisy noise. In the distance, a group of light spots appeared, gradually moving towards Xigou Village.

The point of light grew larger and larger, and it was a group of knights, escorting a carriage, which was struggling in the wind. These people are dressed as merchants, but they all have weapons in their hands, and they all look fierce and vicious.

At the foreground are three horses, triangular in shape. The leader was a horse-faced man with a scar on his forehead, and he looked hideous. Behind him, followed by two men in hardcover. One of them said: "Second brother, we will go to Xigou Village in front, do you want to rest for a while?" It's too windy. ”

The man at the head said: "No, fourth brother, I have already made an appointment with others, and I want to meet before noon tomorrow, so I can't delay." Big brother is still waiting for us to come to the rescue. ”

Another man said: "Fourth brother, second brother is right, everyone is celebrating the New Year today, and it is safest to hurry at this time, listen to the second brother, let's hurry." ”

"Okay." The man called the fourth brother muttered and continued on his way.

It is in line with the old saying: the moon is dark and the wind is high on the night of killing.

Suddenly, there was a "whoosh" sound of arrows piercing the night sky around the road, dozens of sharp arrows flew towards them, and the people escorting the carriage immediately let out a scream.

The horse-faced man shouted: "There is an ambush." Protect the wagon! ”

At this time, many samurai rushed out of the roadside, shouting words that people could not understand, and rushed to kill them. This group of people is none other than those Tibetan (Tibetan) warriors who came out of Chang'an.

There were more than a dozen people escorting the carriage, and there were more than 30 Tibetan warriors. The martial arts of the people escorting the carriage are good, and those Tubo warriors are all good among the Tubo warriors who escort the mission, plus there are many people, and the horse-faced man and his gang will soon be unable to withstand it.

The horse-faced man shouted: "The wind is tight, everyone is talking nonsense." (Black words, the situation is not good, everyone run)

The fourth brother shouted, "What about the carriage?" ”

The horse-faced man said, "It's important to save your life. ”

The horse-faced man and his gang fought and retreated, and soon disappeared.

The Tibetan warriors aimed at the carriage, and they did not chase it, but gathered around the carriage together.

A samurai jumped into the carriage and got in. A moment later, he poked his head out and let out a cheer, along with the many Tibetan warriors.

The praying mantis caught the cicada and the yellow finch behind, and just when they got carried away, nearly a hundred sharp swords flew in, and this time it was the turn of the Tubo people to scream.

Then, a large number of Xue Yantuo warriors rushed over, led by General Tie Li, he brandished a big sword, and stepped forward on his horse, one by one, and the Tubo people were not opponents at all.

At this time, the Tibetan leaders came over to resist the iron force, and other Tibetan warriors also came up to fight.

There were more than 70 samurai under Tie Li, and they quickly gained the upper hand.

Tie Li and the others surrounded the Tibetan warriors around the carriage, and he shouted loudly: "Kill them all, and don't let any of them go!" ”

The warriors of Xue Yantuo brandished their scimitars and attacked fiercely towards the Tibetan warriors.

The Tibetan warriors had just gone through a battle, and were attacked by the Xue Yantuo warriors, and they were inferior in numbers, unable to resist their attack, and after a stick of incense, they were finally all killed. Xue Yantuo's warriors also suffered more than a dozen casualties.

Sticker and Tieli came to the carriage, lifted the box from the carriage, opened it, and shone it with a torch, and immediately let out a burst of exclamation.

Under the firelight, I saw that in the box, there was a statue of a wolf more than a foot high.

This statue, which is transparent and blood-red, is close to the part of the wolf's head, and the color gradually darkens, and the wolf's head is close to black. This wolf, made of unknown materials, was crystal clear and shining in the firelight.

The base of the wolf king seems to be the top of a mountain, and the wolf king stands proudly, looking up to the sky and roaring. Mighty and domineering!

The warriors from the steppe were stunned, and many of them knelt down, their hands on the ground, and their heads clasped on the ground.

Sticker and Tie Li also knelt down and kowtowed three times, stood up, and carefully invited the wolf king into the box and put him in the carriage.

The warriors of the steppe were full of joy, they thought that after obtaining the wolf totem, their own tribes on the grassland would be blessed by the wolf totem in the future, and the grassland would be more prosperous.

Po Tie and the others escorted the carriage in the direction of Chang'an City, and suddenly, Po Tie stopped. He said: "You can't go back to Chang'an City, it's too dangerous." Tie Li, you directly escort the wolf king back to the grassland, and I will go back to Chang'an myself and report to the Great Khan. ”

Tie Li said: "Lord Misten, you have considered it right, the lowly will take a detour and return to the grassland immediately. ”

He repeatedly explained that he must protect the wolf king, and then returned to Chang'an with a few entourages. Tieli took the other samurai with him, protected the carriage, and prepared to make a detour.

Soon after the breakup between Potheel and Tie Li, he saw a large group of black-clothed men galloping on the official road, and they roared past, and the direction was where Tie Li was.

He immediately sent someone to follow them quietly, and asked them to try to deliver a message to Tieli.

He stuck in a bush on the side of the road, waiting for news.

About half an hour later, a fast horse came galloping, and it was the retinue of the horseman. He was hit by an arrow in the back and covered in blood. I chuckled intimately, knowing that something was wrong.

Sure enough, as soon as the attendant got off his horse, he fell to the ground, and he said, "Great, my lord, General Tie Li has an accident, they encountered a large group of men and horses, and General Tie died in battle. The man said breathlessly.

Pothee hurriedly asked, "Wolf King, where is the Wolf King?" ”

The attendant said, "It was snatched by the man in black." As he spoke, he began to cry.

"Hey!" He struck his left palm with his right hand, and he was extremely sad.

After a moment, he asked, "Do you know who did it?" ”
