Chapter Twenty-Six: The Trap of the Grove
……
On the long street, Gu Ren and Dandan cautiously bypassed the street in front of them and looked forward.
The old locust tree under the wall of the Confucian Mansion was luxuriant, and under the old locust tree stood two women, both with their backs to their direction. Judging from the back, the two of them are exactly the same as Kong Yishang Sanqi's back.
At this time, a carriage suddenly came in front of him, and two black shadows suddenly appeared in the carriage, and they rushed towards "Kong Yishang" and "Sanqi" at a whoosh.
"Sister!"
Dandan exclaimed in surprise and wanted to rush forward.
Gu Ren was also taken aback, and he raised his leg and wanted to rush forward, but after hesitating, he hurriedly pressed Dandan's shoulder.
"Senior brother, Sister A and Miss Kong have been arrested, how can I do it."
Dandan panicked.
"Don't panic, it's not Yishang and Sanqi who were arrested."
Gu Ren said calmly.
"How?"
Dan Dan was puzzled.
"Your sister is more or less good at martial arts, and the reaction arc is not so long. It is impossible to be attacked without a little vigilance. However, Yishang and Sanqi may have been deceived. We follow the carriage and will find Yishang and Sanqi's. ”
Gu Ren pondered for a moment and said.
"That'...... Didn't that just fall into someone else's trap? If there is no accident in this, it must be Hong Qiu's doing. ”
Dan Dan said affirmatively.
Gu Ren: "Have you ever seen a big crocodile caught with a small hook?" ”
Dandan: "No...... No, what do you mean? Hehe, I see. ”
"You go back first, and the senior brother will take care of this matter."
Gu Ren sent Dan Dan back, this kind of thing has to be fought and killed, full of ** and blood. Not suitable for minors.
"Then brother, be careful. Guapi didn't say that Hongqiu's convener came from Shaozhou, and he hoped that there would be no cousin Liu Mang. Otherwise, senior brother, you really can't handle it. That Liu Mang and Hong Qiu have a very good personal relationship, and have helped Hong Qiu several times, and his light skills and hidden weapons are very powerful, and his Lao Tzu is the second eldest of the thirteen Taibao in Shaozhou, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called floating on the water. ”
Dandan's advice did not forget to explain.
"Well, I'll be cautious. Don't say **, even if it is a bandit, it is a piece of cake for the senior brother to clean them up. ”
Gu Ren said proudly, Gu Ren was still very confident in fighting. Whether it is a group fight or a heads-up, there has never been a defeat in 12 years.
"Huh? Senior brother, do you actually know Tu Fei? It seems that you know Shaozhou quite well, brother, and I always thought that you were a foreigner. ”
Dandan was surprised.
"So-and-so is just guessing. Senior brother lives in the overseas Celestial Empire, how can he understand this Shaozhou. Is this bandit really human? ”
Gu Ren wondered.
"Well, Tu Fei is the son of the Thirteen Taibao boss Tu Batian, and his cultivation is the Golden Bell Hood Iron Cloth Shirt, which is said to have reached the point of invulnerability. This time, Ashin Aji came to Shaozhou, and it was related to Tubatian's father and son, and I heard that there was collusion with a group of robbers. ”
Dan Dan answered truthfully.
"Golden bell hood iron cloth shirt? It seems that this Yijin Sutra is also true...... You kid is also a stuffy thing, why don't you usually tell your senior brother about these martial arts. ”
Gu Ren glanced at the ball.
"Hehe, Master said that it is not healthy to fight and kill, and it is not environmentally friendly to dig treasures everywhere...... It's still your Journey to the West, senior brother, flying away, and there are so many fairies and monsters...... Senior brother, you hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to track down the carriage. ”
Dandan glanced at the end of the long street.
"It's okay, Hong Qiu Nashabi will deliberately slow down and wait."
Gu Ren smiled.
……
After Gu Ren asked Dandan to go back, he followed the direction of the carriage and traced the time for less than a stick of incense, and sure enough, he saw the carriage.
The carriage walked down the street towards the east gate of the city.
As Gu Ren and Dandan expected, this plan was devised by Hong Qiu, because he didn't see a single night guard along the way. It was clearly pushed out in advance.
The gate of the county seat is open, and now the Tang Dynasty has been peaceful for a long time, and the people are well-off with warm food and clothing, and the overall quality is still good.
The carriage went all the way out of the city gates, into a grove, and then vanished.
Gu Ren stopped, stood in place, and calmly looked at the grove. At this moment, a woman's scream suddenly came from the woods.
"Ahh
A sudden sound echoed in the silence of the night, and a flock of birds perched in the woods flapped their wings and flew out.
Gu Ren frowned, and a solemn expression appeared on his face. At this time, he suddenly smelled a dangerous aura, which was the first time he had encountered this situation since retiring.
In the dark, it was like a pair of cold eyes staring at him. Deliver a fatal blow to him at any time.
Gu Ren's footsteps moved slightly, and now he couldn't think about it, the person who was staring at him in the dark had a smell of blood, he was definitely a master, and he could threaten his life. The woman's scream just now was very similar to Sanqi. It's hard to say. If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens.
He had to deal with the master in the darkness first.
As soon as his footsteps moved, there was a buzzing sound, and a streamer of light flew in. Gu Ren turned his head to the side and dodged. With a bang, a throwing knife pierced an old tree next to it.
What shocked him was that this flying knife actually had an explosive effect, and the bark of the old tree was blown off four or five pieces, which was incredible. If it hits him in the head, it won't explode.
What kind of throwing knife technique is this, so awesome! This master of the Tang Dynasty is really different from the master of later generations, Gu Ren didn't dare to be careless. With a whoosh, Gu Ren turned into an afterimage and rushed into the woods.
When he entered the jungle, he was like a cheetah released into the forest, with a sensitive sense and a quick body.
……
The time for a stick of incense has passed.
……
"Childe is not good, the goal is lost. Of all the traps, he didn't hit any of them. It's too tricky...... Our brothers have been arranging for so long, this guy really has some skills. ”
In the darkness, a man lowered his voice and reported.
"Hehe, I guess I used to be a local adventurer hunting in the countryside, so I'm familiar with traps. Don't worry, what are you afraid of, with my cousin here, it's easy to get him, hehe, have Kong Yishang and Sanqi entered the Wild Wolf Valley? ”
This voice was none other than Hong Qiu's.
"Miss Kong and Miss Sanqi have entered the Wild Wolf Valley, and they are almost at the expected location."
The man then reported.
"Hey...... Get ready for a smoke. It's time for my son to go, but I can't let Yishang wait for a long time. ”
Hong Qiu swallowed.
"Childe, but...... His cousin chased him and disappeared...... Why don't we wait for my cousin to come back and then enter the Wild Wolf Valley? Didn't the cousin say that Sanqi was good, leave it to him? ”
"Sanqi will be spared, she is Prime Minister Zhang, if he doesn't want to die, I will die. If he is hungry, let Chrysanthemum accompany him. Yishang, the goddess of so-and-so, I'm here to accompany you......"
Hong Qiu smiled lewdly.
"Ahem?"
An abrupt voice appeared behind Hong Qiu.
"Who!"
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
Hong Qiu turned around and saw a bleak and tragic scene...... Four or five younger brothers, all of them fell to the ground. Gu Ren stared at him coldly, like a cat catching a mouse.
"Ahem...... Look at...... Gu Gongzi, good ...... Long time no see...... It's getting more and more handsome, no wonder Yishang likes you. ”
Hong Qiu's whole body was cold, like falling into an ice cellar.
"Where are Yishang and Sanqi, do you cut off your head and take me there, or chop off your legs and take me there?"
Gu Ren held a dagger in his hand, and a grim sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Cold sweat oozed from Hong Qiu's forehead, and his legs were weak.
"Brother...... I'll take you there......"
Hong Qiu trembled.
……
"Still not leaving......
"Good...... Good...... Little brother, let's go. ”
Hong Qiu walked in the direction of the Wild Wolf Valley in fear.
"Brother...... Have you ever seen my old watch? ”
Hong Qiu lowered his voice and cautiously probed, his last hope tonight was on his cousin Liu Mang.
"That's your old watch? It's too special, I just said a word, I threw away the dagger in fright, and ran away, and the bad brother chased for a long time without catching up. Little bit, brother asks you something, why does your old watch's flying knife still have an explosion effect? ”
Gu Ren followed behind him and looked at the dagger in his hand.
"Brother, that's the inner ...... Skills. What did you say to my old watch? ”
Hong Qiu wondered in his heart, how could the old cousin Liu Mang be a well-known master in Shaozhou, how could he be scared away.
"The bandits have all been killed by the master, and you are still afraid of you?"
Gu Ren said casually.
"Ah...... What the? You killed the boss? ”
Hong Qiu stumbled.
