Chapter Eighty-Five: A Thief in the Valley

They didn't run far, and the sound of trumpets in the distance could still be faintly heard, but there were no pursuers behind them, and the southern barbarians didn't seem to notice them. The four of them were already sweating profusely, although it was winter, Wang Manqiu felt unbearable because he was carrying a person on his back, and he ran for a while. There is a canyon in front of you, and through this valley you will reach the official road leading to Huangshan Town. With Wang Ke's living picture, this piece will not get lost.

The group of them did not hesitate to enter the valley, if it weren't for the fact that they were too close to the Southern Barbarian soldiers, Wang Manqiu would naturally not choose to take this road, and he would definitely not take this risk. I saw the confrontation between the peaks and ridges on both sides of the valley, the vegetation at the mouth of the valley was abundant, and entering it was like walking into the plug from the south of the Yangtze River in an instant, facing the cold wind of the bones, which made people feel frightened, and the big trees on both sides covered the sky and the sun. Occasionally, sunlight shines through the shady crevices of the trees, leaving dappled shadows on the gravel path. This gravel road is the most likely to sprain your foot. At first glance, this valley is a good place to kill people and sell goods.

The road is getting narrower and narrower, and after walking a few steps, you can hear the stream murmuring, a mountain stream rushing in the valley, the clear stream detours between the long vines in the dense forest, the detour between the saga-rocks, the detour between the cliffs, the running is too fast, several people are dry-mouthed, Wang Manqiu is better, he is drinking water all the way, but it seems that he didn't drink. Water is the source of life, but when you are thirsty, you actually have a slight symptom of dehydration, fighting in the field, you can eat a few meals less but the water can not be broken, Wang Manqiu knows it well. Several people supported them and came to the mountain stream along the gentle slope, and Wang Manqiu also put down Xiaojiao at this time. Shangguan Feixue came to a pond of water upstream, first scooped up the clear pool water and drank a few sips, then washed off the dust on his face, closed his eyes, and quietly felt the wreak of the cold wind.

Suddenly I heard a pop! With a loud bang, Shangguan Feixue opened her beautiful eyes and wanted to dodge it too late, and was splashed all over her face by scattered water splashes, but it was Wang Manqiu who jumped down from the boulder on the left and jumped into the pool in front of him, and the pool splashed everywhere, and the first thing that hit was Shangguan Feixue.

Shangguan Feixue raised her eyebrows, the classic angry action, but saw that the water was still rolling in the pool, and when she looked closely, she saw a black shadow sinking to the bottom of the pool, not Wang Manqiu, the first thought in her heart was, this thing will not be stripped naked and jump in, right? Ignore the indecency, and quickly twist his face to the side.

"Enemy attack, protect Xiaojiao!" Wang Manqiu fell into the water and shouted sharply for a moment.

Shangguan Feixue's crystal pinna suddenly trembled slightly, and his gaze suddenly became cold and abnormal. With a movement of his right foot, he picked up a fist-sized rock, and swept it out, sending it flying like a cannonball into the dense forest on the left, and a scream came from the depths of the woods.

Shangguan Feixue: "Childe, let's go!" ”

Boom! With a loud sound, he drew his long sword, and his delicate body had already pounced into the depths of the dense forest like a big bird.

In the woods, more than a dozen black-clad and masked killers instantly poured out from behind the rocks, and two of them bent their bows and arrows and shot into the waterhole. Wang Manqiu saw that it was not good, and it was too late to climb to the shore, and a fierce man re-plunged into the depths of the pool. No sooner had he entered the water than two sharp arrows roared into the pool.

Wang Ke rolled forward and hid behind a huge rock, and quickly pulled out the longbow behind him, his bow was made of bamboo and cow tendons, which seemed ordinary, but it could not be pulled away without extraordinary arm strength. Liu Kuo bent his bow and set up an arrow, and looked at the man who was standing on the bridge stone upstream and shooting into the waterhole, and shot out with an arrow. The bowstring sounded softly, and in an instant the bowstring buzzed back and forth, and the feathered arrow had already shot out like lightning chasing the wind.

An arrow struck the archer in the throat, and the archer snorted, and the upside-down onion fell from the bridge rock, and his body fell into the pool, and the blood soaked in the pool.

Shangguan Feixue swung his sword and opened two feather arrows that shot at him in a row, and had already come to the place where another archer was standing, the archer didn't expect her to come so quickly, panicked, and threw down the horn bow in his hand in fright, and hurriedly touched the knife, but before he could touch the hilt, Shangguan Feixue had already slashed at his neck with a sword, cutting off one of his heads, lifting his foot and lifting his body down, blood kept spurting out from the broken neck, and the pool was even redder.

Killed one archer each, completely disintegrating the opponent's long-range attack, and the remaining killers seemed to lack a full estimate of Shangguan Feixue and Wang Ke's strong combat effectiveness, so they looked at each other in fright, and even gave up the attack and turned around and fled.

Wang Ke roared angrily: "Where to escape!" He strode forward, kicked one of them to the ground with one kick, raised his machete and threw it, and the machete spun like a windmill in the air, poof! thrust into the back of the other killer's heart, and the tip of the knife came out of his chest.

Shangguan Feixue was also merciless, stabbing two of them one after another with a sword in his hand, knocking one of the gangsters to the ground with one punch.

Wang Manqiu only crawled out of the blood-stained pool at this time, and there was a feather arrow stuck in the thigh of this car, although it was not deep in the flesh, but it was also so painful that he grinned. Wang Ke hurriedly stepped forward, helped pull him out of the pool, and exclaimed, "Brother-in-law, are you injured?" ”

Wang Manqiu nodded, turned his head to look at the back of his buttocks, the feather arrow was still stuck in it, and it looked like it had an extra tail, and he gasped.

Shangguan Feixue had already ordered the acupoints of the two killers. I had no choice but to open the killing ring today, and looking at her depressed appearance, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

Wang Manqiu limped to the two of them, remembering that he had been shot with an arrow in the buttocks, he couldn't help but be angry, raised his foot and kicked a killer in the face, and said angrily: "Your uncle's ...... How dare you ...... Plotting against Lao Tzu...... Hey, hey, hey......" This action, the butt hurts so much.

Wang Ke looked at the feather arrow on his thigh, judging from the exposed arrow shaft, it should not be deep into the flesh, Fang was a little concerned in his heart, but he wanted to laugh a little when he saw Wang Manqiu's embarrassed appearance, which made him get carried away just now, and now he learned a lesson.

Shangguan Feixue walked over and ripped off the black cloth on the faces of the two people, and roared angrily: "Say? Who sent you? ”

The two of them were trembling with fright, and when they saw the battle just now, they had already scared the two of them into disarray, more than a dozen came, and five died in the blink of an eye, these people are ruthless enough.

One of them said in a trembling voice, "Miss spare your life...... Miss spares her life......"

Shangguan Feixue said: "Answering our questions honestly may open up to you......

The man bit his lip. Looking at the corpses of his companions around him, he seemed to have finally made up his mind: "We are all mountain people from the neighborhood...... Now that the foreign invasion is everywhere, we have no way to live...... Just to beg for food...... I beg Miss to spare ......"

Wang Manqiu became angry when he heard this, not because they were murdered for money. It's because they all know that this is a war and chaos, and there is a foreign invasion and they are so shameless to do this thing, and they can't bear it.

"Who are you Cypriots?"

The two killers looked at each other.

Shangguan Feixue said: "To say or not to say?" She raised her sword and made a gesture to cut it down.

Both shouted at the same time, "Don't ...... The Shipper you are looking for...... Who is it...... We don't know. ”

Wang Manqiu and Shangguan Feixue glanced at each other, their expressions were extremely unnatural, Wang Manqiu gritted his teeth, they were sure that these people were also some homeless people, only because of hunger, they would temporarily get together to do this robbery, as for whether they were extremely evil, whether they killed people and sold goods, but he thought that he couldn't just forget it, and the people who hurt Lao Tzu naturally wouldn't let it go easily, after all, this is an extraordinary period, whether these thieves will continue to do it again, no one can say, it's not that they escaped fiveSix people?

Shangguan Feixue pulled Wang Manqiu aside and whispered, "What about these two people?" ”

Wang Manqiu wanted to say that he was killed, but then he thought about it again, he didn't know it was manslaughter just now, but now that he understands the internal cause, he can't say that he will be a killer again, so he will take the two of them up first. If their accomplices come to the rescue, they will be lured out and caught in a net. There is another reason, this place is so close to the Southern Barbarian Army, and I am worried that if I do too much, it will inevitably make the remaining thieves vote for the Southern Barbarian Army.

With an arrow stuck in his thigh, he will definitely not be able to hurry, but fortunately, this arrow is not fed with poison, and the shooter himself is not strong, so it does not penetrate deeply. Wang Manqiu lay on the tree with his hands, bit a branch in his mouth, and nodded vigorously at Wang Ke.

Wang Ke looked at the back of Wang Manqiu's buttocks. There was still a small half of the tip of the arrow exposed, and the strength of the arrow was much weaker because of the resistance of the water. Otherwise, the damage will be greater, Wang Ke said: "Brother-in-law, bear with it, I did it?" ”

Wang Manqiu nodded vigorously again.

Wang Ke grabbed the shaft of the arrow with both hands, and suddenly pulled out the bloody tip of the arrow from Wang Manqiu's leg, Wang Manqiu let out a muffled snort in pain, and the gluteus maximus tensed involuntarily, and the pain became more and more severe.

Wang Manqiu spit out the branch in his mouth, his forehead was full of cold sweat, and he breathed a long sigh of relief: "Use wine to help me disinfect!" ”

Wang Ke unscrewed the gourd and poured the liquor on it, this time the pain was even more severe than when he pulled out the arrow, Wang Manqiu screamed in pain like a pig. Even Shangguan Feixue, who was standing in the distance with his back, couldn't help but turn around, and saw Wang Manqiu standing in the woods with his pants down to his ankles, his face flushed with shame, and he whispered, "Does it hurt so much?" ”

Wang Ke helped Wang Manqiu disinfect the wound according to the method Wang Manqiu taught him, and then covered him with Jinchuang medicine and bandaged the wound.

Although it is not far from the road to Huangshan, it is a kind of torment for Wang Manqiu, this cargo has a leg injury, whether he rides or not, he can only make a simple stretcher for the two thieves to carry back and forth. It can be regarded as the best use of things, although Wang Ke is powerful, but Fangxin is still very considerate to him, and deliberately told him to slow down the speed of the team's march, so as not to make Wang Manqiu more painful due to the bumpy pace.

The two thieves were tied to the stretcher with their hands, and Xiaojiao followed them all the way.

This situation made Wang Manqiu can't help but revel in it. Playing in the mountains and sitting on the flower bridge, comfortable to die Lao Tzu, Wang Manqiu laughed, he thought well in his heart, life must be happy, do not miss this rare scenery in life.
