Chapter 558: Conspiracy and Trap (Part II)

Under the leadership of the two local Cao Gang brothers in Xiaoshan, everyone continued to walk up the rugged and narrow mountain road. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info And as they entered the depths of the woods, the feeling of heat had disappeared, especially in the places where the towering trees densely covered the sky, and only a few rays of sunlight penetrated, so that the stinky sweat on the bodies of the Cao Gang who had been on the road for a long time was collected.

Although the body is much more comfortable, the people with rich combat experience also perceive a bad place: because the forest on this mountain is really dense, their vision is greatly affected, which can easily make people feel uneasy.

However, this discomfort should be ignored for Luo Chengzhang and Yang Zhen. Even in the middle of the night, when there is no light, they can confirm their surroundings with their extraordinary sight and sense, not to mention that there is still some light coming through the branches and leaves, illuminating the way ahead.

Luo Chengzhang, who wanted to hold Huang Sanshui and force him to find out the whereabouts of his daughter, did not hesitate or hesitate at all, and kept moving forward in the forest quickly, but his eyes were still vigilantly looking forward to the situation around his left and right bodies, after all, he had many years of experience in the rivers and lakes, and he would always be alert when he came to such an environment.

As for Yang Zhen, although he was also quite anxious, he was always reminding himself to be calm. Because today's various things always gave him a feeling that he was deliberately arranged, so even if his pace was not much slower than Luo Chengzhang, his alertness was much higher than that of his father-in-law, and his right hand clenched the dagger he carried with him, and his eyes still glanced at the two Cao Gang brothers who were leading the way in front of him from time to time, in case they made any bad moves.

After doing this for several miles of mountainous land, Yang Zhen finally couldn't help it: "Why haven't you met other brothers until now?" Where have they all gone? ”

"We don't know...... the two of them looked at their surroundings a little breathlessly and said, "Although this Beigan Mountain is not very high, it is not small, although we Xuanru brought all the brothers here, but it is not easy to search for such a big mountain." I guess they're in the front......"

"Really? In that case, why didn't he ask the local government in Xiaoshan for help? Yang Zhen asked again.

The two looked stunned, and then shook their heads blankly: "I don't know about this little one." Maybe it's because our identity is not enough, please don't touch them......"

"Don't say so much, let's move on." Luo Chengzhang didn't think about it so much, just waved his hand and continued to walk forward.

Seeing him say this, Yang Zhen no longer dwelled on these details, and stepped up his progress. It's just that there is more vigilance in his heart, and at the same time, he also gave a look at several Jinyi Wei brothers behind him, telling them to be ready at any time.

After walking another way and crossing another hillside, the first two suddenly let out a cry of joy: "Look, aren't they our people?" ”

Following their fingers, Yang Zhen really saw several figures standing on the edge of a black and oppressive forest not far ahead. It's just that the sun is badly blocked here, coupled with the distance, I couldn't see the clothes of those people clearly for a while, and I only saw that these people had guys in their hands.

"Lao Tu, we finally brought the helper to them...... The two who led the way cheered, then quickened their pace, and quickly ran towards the forest over there.

However, Luo Chengzhang and the others did not run over like the two because of their own identities, but stood still in place first, wanting to recover first and then meet the brothers here.

Yang Zhen also had the same thoughts as those people at the beginning, although he had doubts along the way, but nothing happened in the end, I thought he was just a little too worried. But when he saw the two guys who led the way rushing over without looking back, and what they had just said sounded in his mind again, he suddenly felt a sudden shock in his heart: "It's not good, this thing is fraudulent!" ”

When I saw those figures just now, it was Yang Zhen, a person with outstanding eyesight, and he couldn't see the appearance of the people on the edge of the forest over there, but how could those two people call out the identities of the other side? The only explanation is that they already knew who was waiting in front of the forest......

Once he figured this out, Yang Zhen's heart was mentioned, and at the same time he shouted: "Father-in-law, everyone should be careful......

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned after listening to Yang Zhen's warning, and they didn't understand why he said that, it was Luo Chengzhang, and they just raised their eyes and looked ahead in some surprise.

And as if to confirm how correct Yang Zhen's judgment was, a strange sound suddenly sounded on the opposite side, followed by the sound of a sharp weapon breaking through the air.

Before everyone could figure out what was going on, a messy arrow had already flown over. Not only did the opponent attack suddenly, but they also took advantage of the condescending position, which made the flying arrows faster. What's worse is that at this moment, Yang Zhen and the others are located in an empty flat land, and there is not even a shelter around them to hide......

Fortunately, Yang Zhen reminded him before, so that everyone was a little prepared. So when the arrows came, they dodged as quickly as they went, and at the same time brandished their weapons to block the arrows that came at them.

But even so, after all, they were still caught off guard by killing, and their own martial arts were limited, so they couldn't completely block the attacking arrows, except for Yang Zhen and Luo Chengzhang, the others were more or less injured, and two of the Cao Gang brothers were also shot in the thighs, and even lost most of their ability to dodge.

At this moment, several more sharp swords came towards them with a sharp sound of breaking through the air. The two men only had time to pick up their weapons and pull away the arrows that arrived first, but then, they were already empty, and they had only the option of dying.

At this time, Yang Zhen suddenly flew and pounced. The dagger in his hand turned into a phantom, cutting on those fatal arrows, knocking them to the ground one by one, which resolved the danger of the two people.

But at this moment, a miserable scream came from the side again. Another Cao Gang brother was accidentally pierced through the chest by a sharp arrow, and his body shook and fell in a pool of blood.

Luo Chengzhang, who had just shot down a lot of random arrows, saw this, and his heart was miserable, and he shouted: "Hurry back, otherwise we will be too passive!" ”

Yang Zhen also nodded approvingly, and said to his subordinates in Jinyiwei: "You retreat, I'll break the back!" As he spoke, he swiftly swung his dagger with both hands, once again blocking the arrows at a rather aggravated angle.

Although these people were all a little stunned by the enemy's surprise attack, they all had some combat experience after all, and knew that if they continued to stay here and be beaten passively, they would definitely die, so they quickly agreed, picked up the wounded brother and retreated. As long as they recoiled back to the bottom of the hill, the bows and arrows on the opposite side would naturally not hurt them in the slightest.

In the opposite woods, a stout man with a slightly dark face was watching all this with a sinister smile on his face, and as he waved his hand repeatedly, more than twenty archers in front of him continued to bend their bows and arrows, and continued to shoot arrows at the enemy who was clearly out of order.

And when he saw that these people wanted to go back, the smile on his face became even bigger: "Let go of the arrow!" ”

"Whew!" A strange roar sounded over the forest, and then, behind Yang Zhen and them, the same movement was heard.

The people who had finally escaped from this chaotic arrow had not yet caught their breath when they heard a movement behind them. After a little hesitation, Yang Zhen and Luo Chengzhang's faces changed: "The other party has already laid a trap here, not only in front of the archers, but also in the back!" ”

"It's because I didn't think about it, so I fell for their plan......" Luo Chengzhang looked at the people around him with self-reproach, they were all injured, and two of them had lost their lives in the process of retreating.

"Father-in-law, now is not the time to blame yourself for saying this! What we should be thinking about is how to get out! Yang Zhen couldn't care about the identity of the other party at this time, and his tone was tough and authentic.

When his son-in-law said this, Luo Chengzhang calmed down a little, and nodded solemnly: "Yes, now we have enemies in front and behind, and there is no way out left and right, so we must pick one side to break through." "Indeed, on their left hand side is a cliff, which is not particularly high, but if it falls, it is certain to die. On the right, there is a forest that is denser than the one in front of it, and it is obvious that there is no way out.

"There are dense archers in front, but the situation behind is unknown......" Before Yang Zhen's words fell, there was a sound of bowstrings behind him, but the enemy behind him was also killed, and this way actually opened the way with bows and arrows.

Fortunately, the distance between the two sides was still far away at this time, and although the arrow was shot in front of it, it was already insufficient in strength, and was quickly blocked by several brocade guards, but it did not cause any damage. But the current situation is extremely unfavorable to Yang Zhen and them.

If the opponent is only close combat, in the case of an insurmountable arrow array in front, Yang Zhen and the others may choose to fight head-on with it, even if their own side must be inferior in numbers. But now the situation is the same, even if they want to fight, they don't have the confidence to fight, the only choice is to hide in the forest on the right hand side for a while, to see if there is room for maneuver.

Yang Zhen and Luo Chengzhang only exchanged glances with each other, then nodded at the same time, and made a decision: "Retreat into the forest first, and use the trees inside as cover to resist the bow and arrow." And then think of another way! ”

Speaking of this, Luo Chengzhang drew his knife in his hand and immediately went into the forest. The others also followed, but Yang Zhen stayed at the end, and only retreated after helping everyone block another round of arrows.

But they didn't know that when they retreated into the woods, the faces of the enemies on both sides were smug, just as the hunter saw that he had driven his prey into a trap he had carefully designed!
