Chapter Twenty-Six: The Walled Gate
Along with Luo Qingguang, there was also a little carpenter: "Be careful of blowing arrows." ”
The weapon of blowing arrows, the little carpenter's memory is deep, it is a kind of weapon that blows the poisonous needle into the enemy's body through some kind of thin bamboo tube-shaped thing, its biggest feature is that it is silent, and if the needle contains highly poisonous, it is even more accurate, very powerful.
He had seen something similar before at the junction of Yunnan and Guizhou, and at that time he was still with his master Lu Da, but at that time, there was a team of twenty people, and only eight people escaped back.
The other twelve were all in the rainforest of the borderland.
At that time, the name "Five Poisons Sect" was deeply engraved in the mind of the little carpenter.
However, blowing arrows is not unique to the Five Poisons Sect.
Obviously, the Ghost King Temple they were looking for at the moment seemed to have this kind of thing, and they didn't say hello at all, they came up directly and ambushed, and there was no room for negotiation.
As the people around them fell, the soldiers who defended the Marshal's Mansion began to panic, they relied on basic military literacy, gathered in groups of three or five, and then took aim with guns, some raised their guns and began to test the fire tentatively, some fell to the ground, rolled and roared, and some felt fear and shouted loudly......
In just an instant, the team was in disarray.
The little carpenter originally thought that the soldiers who came out of the Marshal's Mansion were all elites, but he didn't expect it to be such a performance, and the natural sense of awe in his heart for the people with guns suddenly disappeared at that moment.
Now he is different from the past, and he can no longer use his previous eyes to look at certain things.
He, after all, has grown.
Faced with such a panicked scene, the little carpenter decisively pulled out the cold snow knife on his back, the knife was shining, and then protected Gu Baiguo, who was crawling down next to him, and looked left and right intently.
Every time the sword fell, the head was thrown high, or blood was splashed and spilled into the air.
He did it, without any fancy or twists, and with such bravery that it made people's scalps tingle - he even ignored the muzzle of the panicked soldiers, and went straight into the circle of fire......
As the last scream stopped, and Luo Qingguang shouted to stop, there was silence around.
The enemy who ambushed the team was cleared by the innocent in the snap of a finger.
The guy rushed over, came back with his sword on his back, and walked to Luo Qingguang, with a yellow bullet between the thumb and index finger of his right hand, and threw it in front of him.
He said lightly: "Take care of your group of subordinates who have eyes to the sky but no eggs, and almost killed Dao Ye and me, damn ......"
With that, he turned and walked forward.
Luo Qingguang glanced at the ground and yelled at the people around him, and his words were quite ugly.
The little carpenter did his best to protect Gu Baiguo just now, so he didn't take the initiative to attack, and when Wujian came back, the battle was over, he looked at Wujian who was squatting and waiting by a tree in front of him with surprise, thinking that he was really a legend of the younger generation in Qingcheng, this means, this courage, and this cultivation were simply terrifying.
It looks like he isn't a few years older than himself, why is he so powerful?
Could it be that as soon as he came out of his mother's womb, he began to practice?
The little carpenter was a little puzzled, and here Luo Qingguang sent his men to find all the people who ambushed them.
The men had all turned into corpses, pieced together from side to side, there were five corpses in total, and the little carpenter walked over and looked, and saw a guy with a sword in his chest, who was unclothed on his upper body, and had dark blue tattoos on his chest, back, and face.
Except for the back of this tattoo, which is a winged tiger, the rest are some very regular pattern runes, which look dense, like countless writhing insects.
The little carpenter squinted, and the ink dots kept wriggling, as if they were alive.
Especially the tattoo on the face, it feels inexplicably weird and weird.
Luo Qingguang saw that he could see the gods, and said in a low voice: "This group of ghost king temples that believe in the undead, they think that by tattooing their bodies with the blood and corpse oil of the deceased, they can inherit the power of the dead, and every ghost can only worship one natal object, you see that person's body, is a two-headed python, this person is a osmanthus tree, these natal objects can bring them different powers, and the choice of these natal objects is decided by their leader, the high priest of the ghost king temple......"
Hearing his explanation, the little carpenter realized that Luo Qingguang was not in a hurry, but really studied the Ghost King Temple.
Merely......
He asked in a low voice, "Brother Luo, since you know that these people are so fierce and terrifying, why don't you bring more people?" ”
Luo Qingguang said helplessly: "I didn't know before I came, and after talking to Liu Qi (Dong Qixi's surviving guard), I have already sent someone to the Dashuai's Mansion to invite the masters around the Dashuai to worship, but I can't stop here, otherwise I will disobey the army's orders, so I have to enter the mountain - I originally thought that there are so many people, no matter what, the Ghost King Temple is somewhat taboo, and my side does not need to attack the Ghost King Temple for the time being, I can rely on the prestige of the Dashuai in Xichuan to force the other party to hand over the people, I didn't expect this group of barbarians to be so fierce." , and even took the initiative to attack......"
The little carpenter said, "In this way, the feud should be settled, right?" ”
Luo Qingguang nodded, and said: "Fortunately, you brought my Qingcheng Mountain's No. 1 sword today, otherwise, I don't know how to end up next." ”
With the presence of the Innocent Dao Chief, Luo Qingguang at least had the courage to go to Leiyi Village, where the Ghost God Temple was located, otherwise with this group of unreliable big soldiers, he really didn't dare to move forward.
Luo Qingguang told the little carpenter that the Marshal's Mansion was expanding its troops, so there were only a small number of veterans in this platoon who had been in the army for more than one year, and most of them had been in the army for three months to half a year, and they had not experienced the experience of blood and fire.
The team had to stop and recuperate.
Because of the outstanding performance of the Innocent Dao Leader, although they were ambushed, only four of them were poisoned.
The poisonous needle attacked very quickly, and these people all died of poison one after another, and they didn't give Gu Baiguo any time to be treated.
Before leaving the division, they died first, and everyone dug a pit and buried their dead comrades with mixed feelings, as for the enemy, because they were in a hurry and conserved their physical strength, they directly exposed the corpses in the wilderness.
After the correction was completed, everyone set off again, and this time, no one questioned Luo Qingguang's advice, and the march was much more standardized.
When someone died, their weapons and ammunition were distributed among the others, and the little carpenter, seeing that he was greedy, took advantage of his help to get a spear.
The gun used by the guards of the Marshal's Mansion is made in Hanyang, this thing is imitated by Germany's Gew88, produced by Hanyang Arsenal, and it is an absolutely sought-after item.
Luo Qingguang couldn't talk to Wuji, so he came over to please the little carpenter, and he saw that the little carpenter was interested in this gun, so he walked while explaining to the little carpenter the use of this gun, as well as some principles and so on.
If it weren't for such a dangerous march, he would even have the little carpenter fire a few shots to try his accuracy.
The reason why this is the case is because Luo Qingguang wants to tie up the innocent here.
He came out of Qingcheng Mountain, and naturally knew how strange Wuji's temper was, and he also knew how high this guy's cultivation was.
The rest of the journey, although the road became more and more difficult, and there were even many places where there was no way to go straight, but there were constant detours, but except for some small traps and animal traps, no one came to ambush them.
Because of Luo Qingguang's caution, the team came to the hill opposite Leiyi Village without danger.
Looking at the opposite side from this side, that Lei Yi Village is located in the middle of the mountainside of a dangerous peak, condescending, there are walled walls all around, about one zhang high, the gate is narrow, the surrounding can not distinguish the high and low lookouts and arrow towers and the like, the surrounding roads are blocked, and there is no unobstructed view.
Looking up again, you can see many stilted buildings looming in the forest of the dangerous peak, but because the forests and trees there are too dense, there is no way to see how many people and how large the scale is in the Leiyi Village.
Obviously, in the early days of its establishment, the stockade had foreseen how to defend itself against an attack.
According to this posture, there is no hope of a strong attack, unless the artillery is bombarded.
Luo Qingguang did not recklessly step forward, but summoned his subordinates to come over for a meeting, Wujian disdained to intersect with this group, and the little carpenter was invited to attend, and in a simple discussion, a cultivator named Meng Qige proposed that he take people to worship the mountain gate, salute first and then soldier.
After the previous changes, Luo Qingguang already knew that with his own manpower, he couldn't do much, but fortunately, he called for reinforcements, so it was indeed feasible to carry the signboard of the big handsome.
If the other party is willing to talk, then talk about the conditions, if they can't talk, they retreat here and wait for reinforcements, which is also foolproof.
Luo Qingguang agreed with Meng Qige to submit the worship post according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, and a team of people escorted them to the foot of the mountain, and then Meng Qige and two soldiers walked all the way to a distance of fifty meters at the gate of the village.
The little carpenter hid in the distant woods and watched, and heard Meng Qige shouting loudly at the top of his voice, explaining his intentions, but the Lei Yi village was like clogs, neither opening the door, nor moving, and no one even showed his head.
Brother Meng Qi didn't care, and continued to speak rhetorically, saying that he would let people hand over the handsome personal doctor.
Suddenly, the little carpenter's heart jumped, and when he looked up, he saw Meng Qige's body trembling suddenly.
A sharp arrow pierced his body.
