Chapter 285: The Cliff Climbs to the Top

The main peak of Shimenling is called Bangmao Peak, as the name suggests, the shape is like a big stick mallet straight up and down, compared with the surrounding mountains with mountains and mountains, it seems very abrupt.

This peak was originally surrounded by cliffs on all sides, but I don't know what dynasty and what generation, someone forced a stone step on the north side of the peak, which can be used for people to climb to the top of the mountain.

Despite this, the staircase is extremely steep, with almost straight up and down in many places. It was the golden-eyed eagle that took a fancy to the ease of defense and difficulty in attacking here, so he built the nest on the peak.

In the middle of the night, the bandits in Zhongzhai lost more than 100 people. After fleeing back to the cottage in embarrassment, the golden-eyed eagle had already expected that as soon as the people and horses in the back village were finished, the enemy would come to attack the stick mallet peak. At this point, the bandits had no way out, so the golden-eyed eagle had to make a desperate bet.

He gathered the remaining 300 people, plus the 300 people who stayed behind in the cottage, to make a group of about 600 people, collected all the stones that could be moved at the top of the peak, and piled them all up at the top of the stone steps on the north side. Once someone attacks the mountain, they can throw stones down and injure the enemy.

It's not that the golden-eyed eagle doesn't know that there is no water source on the peak, but at this time, he can't care so much. In order to strengthen the defense to the maximum, he also ordered the bandits to rip up half of the house on the top of the hill and get a lot of bricks and tiles.

Looking at the ruins and broken walls on the top of the mountain, the golden-eyed eagle really knocked out its teeth and swallowed it in its stomach. He thought to himself that he could be regarded as a hard-working man for decades, returning to the pre-liberation period in one night! If you can't even hold this last line of defense, what's the use of keeping these houses?

However, to his surprise, after waiting for a whole day, the unknown enemy army did not come to attack the mountain.

Bangmao Peak is the main peak of Shimen Ridge, usually it is cloudy and mist, these days have been foggy for days, looking down from the mountain, it is even more impossible to see anything, so the golden-eyed eagle does not know the movement of the enemy.

But he had already made up his mind, and this time he was determined not to go out and die. Anyway, the peak is not big, as long as you guard that path, you can move as much as you like, as long as you don't come up.

The day passed in a flash, and the majestic mountains of Shimenling were once again shrouded in night. The golden-eyed eagle hadn't closed his eyes for two days and one night, and he still wanted to support himself at this time, but the bandits under him didn't have his spiritual head, and they were already sleepy.

The golden-eyed eagle had no choice but to let the bandits rest in shifts, and he himself retreated to the room and lay down in his clothes. But he did not let his guard down, and still kept nearly 300 bandits to guard the path, for fear that the enemy would take advantage of the night to sneak attack.

In the blink of an eye, it was the third watch, and the mountains were really silent, only the insects in the grass were humming tirelessly. The bandits were also very alert at first, and they were startled at the slightest disturbance, but after a long time, fatigue involuntarily invaded, and they were all drowsy.

At this moment, on the cliff on the south side of Bangmao Peak, there is a person who is like a gecko swimming on the wall, and he is constantly climbing up! I saw that he was wearing a night suit, almost integrated with the black mountain stone, even if he stared at it carefully, he might not be able to see it.

Although the cliff is almost straight, it is not smooth as a mirror, there are always some convex and concave places to tread, and some tenacious plants can drill out of the gaps, just enough to climb with. The man crept up cautiously, but with great determination, and in a short time had climbed from the bottom of the valley to the edge of the cliff.

Although the bandits were also on duty, they all focused their attention on the path on the north side. As for the other three sides, they were all steep cliffs, and they did not believe that anyone would attack from them. Therefore, these sides were not guarded at all, and when the man heard that there was no movement above, he quietly climbed up the cliff like a tanuki, and immediately hid his traces behind a large tree.

After a while, seeing that the bandits were still unaware, the man untied the five ropes that had been prepared from his body, and tied one end firmly to the trunk of the tree, while the other end was thrown down the valley.

After a while, five of the same ghostly figures climbed up the rope. They winked at each other, and then went straight to the top of the house.

These individuals were members of the Secret Service. The one who climbed the cliff with his bare hands was Yan Ling, who had the highest martial arts, and Xie Sheng and the others climbed to the top with the help of ropes. Each of them has an extremely sharp dagger, but the blade is jet black, even if it is illuminated by the moonlight, they are not afraid of being exposed by the reflection.

After infiltrating the premises, several people immediately split up. Xie Sheng and the others each touched into the bandits' bedrooms, only to see a row of big kangs, lying horizontally and vertically full of bandits snoring like thunder.

Xie Sheng didn't say a word, starting from the first bandit at the door, covering his mouth and nose with his left hand, and holding a dagger against the bandit's neck with his right hand, he cut down hard.

He has been deeply inherited by Yan Ling these days, although martial arts cannot be achieved overnight, the experience of facing the enemy has been suddenly enriched. At this time, the reason why "cut" instead of "cut" or "stab" was used was precisely for fear of making a noise and alarming other bandits.

And this unlucky bandit was still dreaming of marrying a daughter-in-law, and inexplicably arrived at Naihe Bridge, and could only date Meng Pozi.

The skull detached from its torso, and although blood spurted wildly, it only made a muffled sound of "poof". And this insignificant sound was immediately masked by the snoring around him.

As soon as Xie Sheng cut his hand, he did not hesitate, and immediately put the head lightly on the kang and touched the next head. But in two or three minutes, he did the same, cutting seven or eight heads in a row, and he actually killed all the bandits in this room!

At the same time, four other members of the special service team also succeeded. In an instant, there were dozens of fewer people panting on the top of the mountain, and the bandits outside were unaware.

Yan Ling, on the other hand, had a different division of labor from these people, he disdained ordinary bandits, but specialized in those houses that looked more magnificent. Because he expected that the big and small leaders of the bandits would not be able to squeeze into a large kang with ordinary bandits, and they would definitely have to live alone.

Sure enough, as Yan Ling expected, the first house he sneaked into was the big black cow with the golden-eyed eagle.

Although the axe team under the Great Black Bull was wiped out under the blow of the shield phalanx, he finally picked up his own life. He is stronger than ordinary bandits, although he is pillowing his two big axes, he is not asleep, but staring at the two big bull's eyes, ready to copy the guy desperately.

It's a pity that what he encountered was not an ordinary assassin, but Yan Ling, a hero who broke into the Jinyi Guard's prison alone and couldn't keep hundreds of people!

Yan Ling flashed into the house, the big black bull just noticed that something was wrong, and when Huo Di sat up, Yan Ling's figure flickered, and he appeared in front of him like a ghost.

The big black bull was not ambiguous, and picked up the big axe with his left and right hands at the same time, and viciously attacked Yan Ling.

"Zheng!" The blades of the giant axes intersected, emitting a deafening metallic sound. The big black cow's arms were shocked and sore by himself, but where was Yan Ling's figure in front of him?

When he was wondering, he only felt a chill behind him, and when he looked down, the incomparably sharp dagger had already emerged from his chest!
