Chapter 52: Leave? Leave the corpse! 】
(Thanks to Dameng, Chubby, Tiger Master is not confused, Hammer S)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Within a radius of several miles, the originally green meadows were trampled by countless horses' hooves and ploughed, and a wildfire burned the earth. There were charred felt tents, twisted corpses, and Mo Xi people kneeling in front of the corpses and wailing.
Because of his profession, Zhang Fang has dealt with all kinds of corpses, and he still has the psychological tolerance in this regard. However, Mo Xiren's wailing had some influence on him. It's just that there is an imminent crisis waiting for him to solve at the moment, and because of this, a lot of negative emotions have been diluted.
Under the guidance of Nafuwei, Zhang Fang, Deng Zhan, Tao Sheng, Qingyan, and Qu Liang came to the place of the incident. From a distance, I saw that the Han brothers and several palace guards were like great enemies, surrounding a felt tent.
As far as the eye can see, most of the felt tents in the entire Mo Xi department have been destroyed or scorched, and only more than a dozen tents have been spared. In front of the tent that Zhang Fang and his entourage came to, it was the largest and most decorated one - the VIP tent of Mo Xi's department.
The out-of-control frightened crowd doesn't care if you are high or low, you will bump into people when you see them, and you will step on them when you see them, and even the main account of Mo Xi's household has been crushed into the mud, but this VIP account is lucky to escape the catastrophe. In fact, the guards who set the fire everywhere did not intend to let go of the VIP tent that had just been spared from under the hooves, and they did not care who was in the tent, so they threw torches, and four people, two men and two women, rushed out of the tent at once.
The arrows and spears of the palace guards were about to stab past, but the Han brothers exclaimed in time to stop them. For they recognized one of them, Ahri.
The recognition of the Han brothers and Ah Li is giving the two men a chance. They put knives behind the backs of Ah Li and another girl, demanding that they be let go.
The two Hu people are both fat and big, one tall and one short. The tall bearded man looked like a servant, with a strong physique and a fierce expression, and was holding a scimitar to the neck of a young girl. The short and fat man was full of alcohol, staggering, gritting his teeth and holding a cleaver against Ah Li's waist.
Han Jun, Han Chong's brothers, and several palace guards were more than ten steps away, swords rattling, half-surrounding the four of them, but they didn't dare to act rashly.
This is what Zhang Fang and his party saw after they arrived.
"What do you want?" Zhang Fang confirmed that Ah Li was not in danger for the time being, and these two people were not the targets of his pursuit, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately asked questions directly.
Han Jun said in a low voice, "They want to leave and ask us to provide horses...... I also have to escort Ah Li for a ride. ”
Zhang Fang suddenly understood that it was naturally no problem to let these two people leave, but the other party still wanted to take Ah Li as a hostage to be safe. What if the other party escapes, but the hostages are not released or killed to vent their anger? This is where the Han brothers are entangled.
Ah Li is a blind girl, she can't see the situation in front of her clearly, she can't see it, she is naturally not panicked, although she has the tip of a knife through her clothes and skin, but her expression on her face is much calmer than that of another girl. But when she heard the faint conversation, her expression became excited, her lips trembled slightly, and she stopped talking.
Although the short and fat bearded man behind him couldn't see the expression on Ah Li's face, the trembling of the girl's delicate body could not hide it from him. The short and fat bearded man narrowed his eyes, the corners of his mouth grinned, and the two curled mustaches were even more curled.
"Can you understand Chinese?" Zhang Fang shook the reins, drove the horse out of the crowd, and asked loudly.
The tall bearded man looked dazed, and the short and fat bearded man's eyes flashed, and he said in a shrill voice that was not commensurate with his fat body: "Who are you?" ”
It's hard to listen to, it's laborious, but it's really Chinese.
confirmed that he could talk to the other party, Zhang Fang didn't pay attention to it, and just said loudly: "I don't care who you are, and the person I'm looking for is not you." So, I promise you, as long as you release the hostages, you can leave, and I will never hunt them down. ”
The "hostage" mentioned by Zhang Fang also includes another girl, who is no stranger to him, the girl he saw at the Sanshui restaurant that day. If those Udan detachments had come for the boy, then the girl should have been their target. In that case, he doesn't mind giving a favor.
The Humpty Fat Bearded Man rolled his eyes and laughed: "Okay, I don't care who you are, let the two horses come, get out of the way, and when we cross the canyon in front, we will return the people to you." ”
This Hu man's Chinese language is really ugly, and he stretched out his ears to barely understand, and his face suddenly turned cold. The canyon ahead? There is only one canyon within a radius of dozens of miles, the one they crossed before, more than ten miles away from here - run more than ten miles before releasing people, really am I a rookie?
"Deer slave! It's a deer slave! ”
"Damn Hunu ......"
Before Zhang Fang could speak, he was interrupted by a burst of anger. Turning his head, he saw Cao Xiong, Lin Tianci, and Chu Liu's three people galloping around the young man, exclaiming from the young man, and roaring from Cao Xiong. But Cao Xiong only roared half a way and then stopped abruptly, as if someone was choking his neck.
Zhang Fang only glanced at it and turned his head to focus on the Humpty Dumpty Huren again, so he didn't notice the expressions of Cao Xiong and Lin Tianci changing color when they saw the Humpty Fat Hud Man.
"We can't agree to this condition." Zhang Fang flatly refused, not giving the other party the slightest room for illusions, stretched out two fingers, and looked directly at the short and fat bearded man, "You only have two choices - release people, leave!" Or keep people, leave corpses! ”
Humpty Fat Beard is obviously a character who has been messing around in this steppe desert for many years, how can he be frightened by this kid in front of him? He raised his neck and laughed, but did not speak, only stretched out two fingers the thickness of a mallet, twisted up a few thin velvet threads on the back of Ah Li's neck, rested on the sharp meat cleaver blade and saw it gently, and the velvet broke together.
The short and fat bearded man blew his lips and smiled at Zhang Fang and the others, everything was silent.
The tall bearded man was even more crisp, and with a tight blade in his hand, he immediately pulled out a red line on the delicate jade neck of the girl Lu Nu, and the blood flowed for a long time.
Lu Nu's face was pale, and his lip bit blood, but he never made a sound.
However, the young man was in a hurry, and rode his horse close to Zhang Fang, but was stopped by Tao Sheng, and he looked at him coldly with a knife.
The young man hurriedly saluted: "I am Jiankun Xiaowang Li Ren, thank you for the great grace of Gongzi to save me." ”
Tao Sheng was surprised, his eyes touched Deng Zhan, and they were all surprised. Compared with the obscure Wudan fragmentation, this "Jiankun" has quite a background, as one of the 36 countries (city-states) in the Western Regions, with a vast area and located in the West Pole, both Deng and Tao have heard of it.
However, Zhang Fang, who has seen and heard the most in the world, has never heard of it. He just looked at the young Li Ren quietly: "Do you want to save your female companion?" ”
"Exactly, please calm down and let me talk to Sando."
"Sando? Is that the Humpty Fat Bearded Man? After receiving an affirmative reply, Zhang Fang nodded, "Okay, since you know each other, I'll leave it to you......"
Before the words fell, the short and fat bearded man Sang Duo had already said something, and the object of the speech was Li Ren, but it was in Hu language, and after speaking, he let out a sharp wild laugh.
Zhang Fang didn't understand, but it was not difficult to know from Li Ren's ugly face that people didn't take him seriously at all. Also, no matter what kind of little king he is, a moment ago, he was still a slave.
Deng Zhan said in a low voice: "There is a felt tent behind them, and there are hostages in front of them, so it is difficult to start." It's better to agree first, and the servants will arrange manpower at the canyon first......"
Zhang Fang shook his head slightly: "It's too risky, I want to be foolproof...... You don't have to meddle in this, I'll take care of it. ”
Deng Zhan was speechless, even he felt that this matter was very tricky, how could the young master deal with it?
Zhang Fang beckoned Qingyan to come over and whispered a few words to her. Qing Yan was surprised, hesitated slightly, but still gritted his teeth and nodded.
Zhang Fang said solemnly: "Okay? ”
Danfeng, a girl with single eyelids, narrowed her eyes and said in a sonorous voice: "Okay!" ”
Zhang Fang and Qingyan turned over and dismounted at the same time, approaching quickly - the sudden actions of the two not only frightened their own people, but also surprised the two Hu people. By the time the other party reacted, the two had approached a distance of ten paces.
Sando's eyes widened: "You, what are you doing...... Stop! Stop it! Otherwise I'll ......"
Before Sando could say the threatening words, Zhang Fang and Qingyan stopped at the same time.
Zhang Fang unsheathed the long sword from his waist and threw it to the mud ground, his arms outstretched, indicating that he was not hostile, and his face was full of smiles. But the words that came out of his mouth were very different from his actions: "Sando, there is a way in heaven if you don't go, then go to hell-"
Zhang Fang's outstretched right palm folds the four fingers into a fist, the thumb is raised, and the fist is swirled, and the thumb is facing down.
At the same moment, Qing Yan's right hand swept from his waist, and with a slump of white light, he swept past Ah Li's right sideburns and nailed half of Sando's forehead.
In the shocked eyes of everyone, Sandor fell straight down. From beginning to end, he didn't react at all, just like a live target, he was killed by Qing Yan with a ruler knife and a single blow.
What happened at this moment, Cao Xiong, Lin Tianci, Deng Zhan, Tao Sheng...... And everyone, after many years, didn't figure it out, why is this happening?
When the tall bearded man saw his master killed, he cried out in anger. As soon as he turned his head, there was a sharp bang - poof! Angry blood splattered, and an arrow pierced the neck.
Zhang Fang looked back and gave a thumbs up to Chu Liu, who had just lowered his big bow. But seeing Lin Tianci's face in disbelief, he pointed to Sando's corpse, and then pointed to Zhang Fang, and said, "You, you actually killed him......"
Zhang Fang raised his eyebrows: "What, can't you kill it?" ”
"You don't know who he is?"
"Yes."
"I know you're still ......"
"He's not called Sang."
"You...... You're in trouble! Lin Tianci was so angry that his teeth itched, and he squeezed out six words from between his teeth, "He is gold, arrows, messengers, and messengers!" ”
