Chapter 24 (3) Hunting and Killing
4
This battle against Manager Ma ended in failure, Shi Suo and Dafeng were not convinced, Dafeng said: "If you want to meet Zhang Shenjian again in the future, you must have a good competition with him." ”
Duan Laosan hung up the lottery, it turned out that Manager Ma was cunning, and hid in the dark after escaping into the house, when Duan Laosan opened the door and rushed into the house, he slammed a fire stick, Duan Laosan couldn't dodge, was swept in the forehead, almost fainted, relying on his strong body, gritted his teeth, and continued to rush over, Manager Ma saw that this person was not afraid of fighting, thinking that he had encountered a hard qigong, he was so frightened that he threw out the fire stick and fled.
He Yuan listened to the incident, patted his forehead, and said happily: "I'm lucky that I wasn't caught by the enemy." Encountering Zhang Shenjian, this is an accident, this guy is too much of a threat to us. ”
"Gotta get rid of him as soon as possible." Hu Xuan said on the side.
"I'll go." Shi Suo and Dafeng said at the same time.
He Yuan shook his head, "Let's not compete with him in martial arts, this is not a ring." In this way, all the places in the city are set up to watch posts, as long as he appears, he will be quietly followed, and then take action, whether with guns, knives, flying knives or hidden arrows, as long as it works. ”
Under the arrangement of Gai Tou and He Yuan, a large net was spread inside and outside the city.
Professor Wan sent a few painting students, according to the description of Shi Suo and others, to draw several portrait sketches of Zhang Shenjian and distribute them to the people, and the beggars, students, chambers of commerce, trade unions, and the backbone members of the willow weaving society on the main streets all took action together, ready to open their nets to catch Zhang Shenjian at any time.
On this day, Sun Xiaobo came to see Professor Wan, and as soon as he entered the door, he said with a nervous expression: "On this way, how do I feel that there seems to be someone behind me?" I turned around to look for it, but I couldn't find it, maybe it was because I was suspicious. ”
Professor Wan also became nervous, "Be careful, I'll observe you later when you go back." ”
The two chatted for a while about the situation of the anti-Zhang forces in the army, Sun Xiaobo took his leave, and Professor Wan and the young student Xiaobai sent him to the door, pretending to break up, and hid by the school's communication room.
Sun Xiaobo walked less than 100 meters when he saw a person coming out of the corner, wearing a top hat with the brim pressed on his eyebrows, sneakily following Sun Xiaobo.
Xiao Bai and Professor Wan were taken aback, sure enough, there was a stalker, but the face of the person in the top hat was not clear, Professor Wan said: "Xiao Bai, you are staring at this person, I will go and inform Duan Laosan of them." ”
Xiaobai nodded and followed, he was afraid of losing the target, so he didn't dare to go too far, and when he walked to the mouth of an alley, the person in front of him suddenly turned around.
Xiao Bai had no experience, thinking that his tracking had been discovered by him, so he hurriedly turned around to dodge, and this time he was exposed, the man showed a fierce light, and he didn't follow Sun Xiaobo anymore, and rushed straight towards Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai was startled, turned around and ran, he was a long-distance runner of the track and field team at school, running is a housekeeping ability, at the moment he took a long leg, a gallop, ran a few steps, his mind turned, and his heart said that this person must be a spy, if he returned to school, he might expose his identity or involve others, so he turned a corner, looked up, and suddenly saw Professor Wan and Duan Laosan running towards him in a hurry, Xiao Bai hurriedly shook his hand, "Hurry up, chase here." ”
Duan Laosan and Professor Wan looked at Xiaobai like this and knew that things had changed, Duan Laosan was in a hurry and said to Xiaobai: "Run out of the city and lead him out." ”
Xiaobai nodded, took a long step, and ran out of the city, Professor Wan and Duan Laosan hid next to him, and as soon as he dodged, he saw the person wearing the top hat turning around the alley and chasing him, the top hat pushed up, revealing his face, Duan Laosan could see it clearly, it was Zhang Shenjian.
"Okay, I've finally found you." Duan Laosan was happy for a while. After Zhang Shenjian ran over, he whispered a few steps to Professor Wan, and then strung through the alley and ran to arrange it.
Xiao Bai had settled down at this time, knowing that he had backup, he no longer panicked, adjusted his breathing, took out his well-trained long-distance running skills, specially selected remote roads, and ran out of the city unhurriedly, Zhang Shenjian behind couldn't catch up with him, Xiao Bai occasionally stopped and waited, and the two always maintained a distance of up and down 100 meters.
When passing by a park, behind an old tree, the little ghost flashed out and waved his hand at Xiaobai, who understood and nodded. The little ghost is hidden behind the tree again.
Zhang Shenjian in the back is already out of breath, although his martial arts are high, but long-distance running, and martial arts are not too related, seeing the young man in front of him running very fast, he has the heart to give up, but he is reluctant, seeing that this person is very suspicious, nine times out of ten is a "rebel", holding it is a reward, where is it easy to let go?
The little white elephant was also tired, stopped and bent over to gasp, Zhang Shenjian plucked up his courage, raised his breath to catch up, and when there were still thirty or forty meters away, a sleeve arrow flew out, but the distance was still far away, and it didn't hit, Xiaobai was startled, got up and ran.
The two of them ran out of the city one after the other.
At the city gate, Zhang Shenjian once shouted: "Catch him," but Xiaobai had already left the city, and the city guard did not know why, but stopped Zhang Shenjian, Zhang Shenjian was furious, pushed the sentry away, and rushed to chase after him. Then many people went out of the city, peasants, workers, students, beggars, and after the sentry inspection, these people were neither armed nor unquestionable, and they were all allowed to go. These people include Shi Suo, Hu Xuan, Professor Wan, Duan Laosan, Xiao Jiling and others. Everyone followed Xiaobai and Zhang Shenjian one after another, forming a torrent of pursuit.
Outside the city, Xiaobai is even more like a fish in water, there are no enemy soldiers, sentry posts, and patrols here, and he can do whatever he wants, but he doesn't know where to run, so he takes Zhang Shenjian and goes around in circles.
Dafeng, He Yuan and Gai also rushed over, Dafeng also carried the big gun of the stone lock, and the people in and outside the city gathered together to round up Zhang Shenjian.
On a rugged path, Xiaobai ran unhurriedly, his head was steaming, sweat soaked his clothes, it was winter, the wind was blowing, a burst of heat, and a burst of cold, but he was in a good mood, at this time he already knew that the person who was chasing him was Zhang Shenjian, and his spirit was even more uplifted, if he caught this vicious enemy with his own long-distance running, it would be great.
Ahead, in a small forest, a little beggar flashed out from behind the tree and beckoned to Xiaobai, who lifted his spirits, turned a corner, and ran into the woods.
Zhang Shenjian vaguely felt that something was not right, the young man in front of him, going around, seemed to have a pair of scuds, and when he was a little farther away, he stopped to rest for a while, as if he was deliberately waiting for himself, he slowly became suspicious, and when he was chasing this young man in circles, it seemed that someone else appeared around, and he felt that he seemed to be surrounded.
He decided not to chase anymore, and with experience, Zhang Shenjian realized that the situation was a little bad. He stopped his steps, took two breaths, looked around a few times, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, this is a deserted wild grass beach, some places are swamps, some places are overgrown with wild grass, everywhere seems to be full of dangers.
Xiao Bai ran into the woods and found that there were several people hidden inside, in addition to the little beggar who beckoned to him, there were also stone locks, cover heads, etc., everyone hid in the grass under the trees like hunters, Xiao Bai was overjoyed, Gai nodded to him, and sent the little beggar to lead him to rest, but Xiao Bai shook his head, saying that he still had the strength to participate in the battle to capture Zhang Shenji.
Shi Suo was lying in the grass, holding the rifle on his shoulder, and was aiming seriously, Zhang Shenjian was only a few dozen meters away from this forest at this time, and Shi Suo silently thought in his heart: "You go closer, go closer." ”
However, Zhang Shenjian turned around and walked back, this guy looked left and right, as if he had found something, and was about to leave in a hurry, and said with his head covered: "Stone lock, shoot." ”
"Horn," Stone Lock fired.
Zhang Shenjian stumbled violently, almost fell, and Gai turned his head and shouted: "Rush over and catch him." ”
"Catch him," "Grab the arrow, don't let him run." All around, a shout rang out, and many figures came out of the woods and grass at the same time.
At this moment, Zhang Shen's arrow was scattered, jumped up suddenly, and rushed out in the oblique stab, Shi Suo's rifle could not be fired continuously, and when he pushed the second bullet, Zhang Shenjian had already run violently. Next to it, there was a swamp, Zhang Shenjian saw that there were people surrounded by people outside, but there was no one in this swamp, so he panicked and ran straight there.
In the swamp, there was water in many places, some of the reeds had been cut down, and some of the dwarf and messy ones were still growing in the ground, withered and yellow, swaying in the cold wind.
Shi Suo chased out of the woods with a gun, and together with everyone, chased the past, ran to the place where Zhang Shenjian was shot just now, and saw that there were blood stains on the ground, he picked up the gun and pulled the trigger, "Horn," Zhang Shenjian stumbled again, but his footsteps did not stop, and he ran into a reed thicket.
"******," Shi Suo scolded angrily, annoyed that he didn't hit, and Dafeng ran over from the side, "Don't shoot, chase after it." By this time, the crowd had approached the swamp and it was not suitable to shoot.
"Watch your feet, outflank left and right." He Yuan shouted command.
Everyone scrambled to rush into the swamp, in the winter season, some muddy sections, although not frozen on the ice, but the soil has hardened, Zhang Shenjian like a frightened hare, running wildly, than the speed of chasing Xiaobai just now, much improved, the swamp is not big, after a while, it will pass through, Shi Suo, Dafeng, Duan Laosan, Xiao Jiling and others followed closely behind, along the way, from time to time to see a little bit of blood, dripping on the blades of grass, between the reeds.
"He's hurt, chase after him." People shouted one after another, and gradually, the old and the weak all fell behind, while Shi Suo and Dafeng and other young and strong ones ran in front, gradually shortening the distance with Zhang Shenjian.
There is a sheep intestine road in front, leading to the mountain, the mountain road is tortuous, the stone lock put two more shots, but they didn't hit, Dafeng said: "I can't run him, and if I work harder, I will catch up." ”
"This road leads to the Three People's Gorge." The little ghost said suddenly.
Is he going to flee back to his lair? Shi Suo wondered in his heart, although that place was hidden, it was a dead end, Zhang Shenjian was dizzy, did he want to escape to a dead end?
