Chapter 19: Pomegranate Flowers

"Young master, there is Ghost Head Mountain in front, let's rest here for a while." Shi Qian stopped his horse in front and shouted.

Li Zheng had already seen the mountain in front of him, and watched Shi Qian lead the path straight to the mountain, and knew that this mountain was likely to be the Ghost Head Mountain, so he had already begun to tighten the reins and wanted the horse to stop quickly, I don't know if he had done his own actions, or the horse saw Shi Qian's horse also stopped and stopped, anyway, it stopped slowly, Shi Qian was also quick-eyed, and quickly got off the horse and held his horse.

Li Zheng hurriedly got off the horse and quietly wiped the cold sweat, fortunately, the horse stopped, in case he couldn't stop, he was embarrassed again.

"Sun Wu, Yang Ming, what should we do next, how to deal with this third master." Li Zheng asked.

"Young master, along this road is the old nest of Guitou Mountain, Yang Ming and I are old and frail, just waiting for your good news at the bottom of the mountain, Shi Qian will take the third master and then go up the mountain with everyone, gain the trust of the robbers through the third master, and then act when he enters it, and strive to kill the robbers in their sleep while they are still asleep. After the matter is completed, I will give the third master a little more entanglement, a fast horse, and let the third master fly away. Sun Wu said, Sun Wu spoke in a loud voice, so that the third master could hear it, and let the third master know that as long as he cooperated well, he could take the money and fly away.

In fact, Sun Wu had already secretly made a plan, and the first robber to kill after entering the village was this third master!

"Okay, then do what the military advisor wants. Huo Qubing stayed to ensure the safety of the military and Yangming, and the rest were with me, so we will go up the mountain now, or wait. Li Zheng asked.

"Young master, it's ugly now, it's a good time to attack the mountain, but the two of us can't be in danger at the bottom of the mountain, so there's no need to leave someone to protect us." Wang Yangming said.

"No, no, now we are at the feet of the enemy, not in our own homes, so it's better to be careful. If the three of you are safe and sound after this battle, I will also give you a meritorious service. Li Zheng patted Huo Quai's shoulder and said.

"It's the young master, listen to the young master's orders." Huo Quzhi said with his fists clenched.

"Then let's get ready, get ready to go up the mountain." Li Zheng took the horse and took the ghost head knife and said. Because the road up the mountain is a bit rugged, everyone chooses to lead the horse not up the mountain, only the third master leads the horse to sit on the horse from the time.

When you are under the mountain, you can see the fire on the mountain, and when you get closer, you can finally see the true face of the ancient robber village, the gate of the village is designed on a small road, and the surrounding are cliffs, you want to go up the mountain and enter the village, only through this road, this is definitely a good place to open a husband.

The gate of the whole village is made of wood, the tall gate is three meters high, above the gate is a platform, and two watchtowers, there are several torches on the watchtower and the platform, the fire light reflects the defense on the platform and the watchtower, a total of five people are guarding, and there are three people sleeping, and a bronze bell, in case of any accident, by striking this bronze bell can let the whole village know that there is an enemy coming.

"Who's coming down here? What's the matter? A guard robber asked lazily? The guard's voice was not loud, but it woke up the three sleeping guards, and one of the guards looked at the person below and said in a panic: "Stupid, the third master below, don't you know!" Hurry down and open the door! ”

"Heavenly King Covers the Tiger!" The third master sat on his horse and said to the robber who had just woken up on the walled building.

"Ah, the river demon of Pagoda Town!" The robber said a little confused. Li Zheng looked at the door that had been opened, quietly poked Xue Rengui and Li Cunxiao, and asked in a low voice: "Don't you think there is a problem with the third master's code word?" The door has been opened, and I recognize the third master, why did the third master do so much? ”

"Young master, I won't tell you anything, I also think it's strange, when the third master said the code word, this sentry was obviously stunned for a moment, and after he said the code word, he suddenly became sober, I suspect that there is something wrong with this code word. I'm afraid that this third master is playing some kind of moth, so I went to the third master's side to keep an eye on him. Xue Rengui said.

Among the seven gods of war that he chose, although they were all victorious and their personal strength was not questioned, each of them also had different advantages and disadvantages, for example, Xiang Yu was not only brave in battle, but also had a remarkable military acumen, but his political mind was a mess, and Xue Rengui was the most careful among these people, not only from what he knew from history, but also from the contact in the past few hours.

First of all, when he saw the village chief, he saw that he was uncomfortable, and quickly came out to beat his back, I am afraid that many people do not know about this matter until now, and the matter of 'military advisor, young master', is also keenly aware of the problem, and quickly reminded Xiang Yu, and when he picked a horse for himself, he knew that his riding level was not enough, so he deliberately chose an ordinary horse, if Xiang Yu accompanied him, he would definitely choose the strongest one.

Through Li Zheng's previous understanding and observation in just a few hours, it was found that this Xue Rengui was still a very careful type of person, and it was much more reassuring to let Xue Rengui look at the third master than to let Xiang Yu and others look at it, if something happened to him, Xue Rengui could definitely make the best judgment.

Shi Qian is also a careful person, and he also heard the extraordinary in this codeword, coupled with Xue Rengui, who broke through, Shi Qian was even more sure of what he thought in his heart, and quickly glanced back at Li Zheng secretly, and Li Zheng gave Shi Qian an order to move forward.

Now I am just a speculation about this codeword, if the door is open and I don't go in, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of the robbers, so no matter what, I have to go to the gate first.

Li Zheng stood in the middle of everyone, and everyone surrounded Li Zheng and slowly advanced, and after less than ten meters, he gradually stopped.

Xu Da turned his head abruptly and said, "You little guys, don't stand guard on the walled tower, follow us to do something!" This is not Xu Da's fuss and deliberately attracting attention, but when he entered the walled gate, there were more than a dozen robbers around, and the ghost head knife in the robber's hand has been unsheathed, gradually forming an encirclement trend, needless to say, his party must have been exposed, Xu Da also wanted to die when he asked this sentence!

Before Xu Da's words fell, Li Zheng heard the sound of a fight in front of him, it turned out that the third master wanted to run, but he was caught by Xue Rengui, and directly stepped on the third master on the ground, anyway, the identities of himself and others have been exposed, and there is no need to pretend to be the third master.

"You hurry up and let go of the third master, we can let you go down the mountain alive, if not, let you look good." A robber screamed.

"Hmph, you dare to secretly inform these people, aren't you afraid of death? What did you mean by the code word you just said? Xue Rengui said angrily.

"Haha, only three-year-old children will believe what you say, and you want to lie to me, you are so naïve, if I bring you into the village, I will either be the first to die or the last to die, anyway, I will never live, since both horizontal and vertical are dead, I might as well be the hero of the Ghost Head Gang. If you want to know what I meant by the code words just now, you should never want to know, you just need to know that you are now surrounded by our ghost gang, and they are now rushing towards it, even if you are strong, it is impossible to beat more than a thousand people, and your hands are weak when you stand and let you cut down, now let me go, hurry down the mountain, maybe my horse will run fast, and you can escape a way out. The third master's head was trampled on the ground by Xue Rengui, and he said vaguely.

"That's right, that's what the third master said, you better run for your lives." Another robber said.

"Young Master, what should we do?" Li Cunxiao asked.

"Didn't the military advisor take this into account?" Li Zheng asked suspiciously, since the third master will be given a way to live after the matter is completed, a three-year-old child doesn't believe this kind of words, how could the military advisor not think of it, and he didn't come up with any strategy?

"The military advisor said that if something happens, let us make our own decisions, we are all the elite of the soldiers, and there is no problem in dealing with these bandits." Li Cunxiao replied.

"Okay, let's talk to everyone, let's do it together and kill these dozen robbers." Li Zheng whispered.

Because Li Zheng was in the middle, Li Zheng said that except for Xue Rengui, Shi Qian and the third master who didn't hear it, the rest of the people listened to one and understood, as soon as Li Zheng's voice fell, Li Cunxiao, Xu Da, Xiang Yu, and Bai Qi took out their ghost head knives together and threw them at the nearest robber, all four of them were famous generals, and it was easy to kill a robber by throwing a big knife at such a close distance, and before these robbers could react, the four robbers died directly.

Xue Rengui and Shi Qian also had a first-class reaction, seeing that everyone moved, Shi Qian also took out the ghost head knife and threw it at a robber, while Xue Rengui threw the ghost head knife at the same time, in order to prevent the third master from escaping, he kicked the third master unconscious.

These people are good at martial arts, and they dare to throw the ghost head knife out and then engage in hand-to-hand combat, but Li Zheng does not dare to do this, first of all, he is not sure that he can kill a person with such a good quasi-head, and the most important thing is that he does not have the combat effectiveness of hand-to-hand combat, once the ghost head knife is thrown, whether he can kill the enemy or not, he will be in danger.

These robbers didn't expect individuals to be so brave, and they did it without saying a word, when they saw the people around them die instantly, these people couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, thinking that fortunately their target was not themselves, but when these people reacted again, including Li Zheng, seven people had already arrived at these robbers, and Li Zheng had already rushed over when he said that he would do it, and when the robbers were stunned, he slashed straight at the neck of a robber, and the robbers didn't react yet. was cut off by Li Dao, and at this time, the other six people had already rushed forward.

He didn't use a weapon at all, and killed another person with his bare hands. There are still three robbers left, one of the three robbers reacts by running fast, one wants to fight back, holding a ghost head knife and rushing towards the seemingly thinnest Shi Qian, and the other is shouting 'ring the bell', and the second 'ringing the bell' has not yet been said, and it was kicked away by Xue Rengui, the robber spurted out a mouthful of blood, and even mixed with some pieces of minced meat, lying directly into a puddle, and it seemed that he couldn't survive.

On the other side, although Shi Qian's thin and small martial arts are average, but to deal with these three-legged cats are not considered robbers, you can still deal with ten easily, snatched the ghost head knife in the hands of the robber and threw it towards the fleeing one, the ghost head knife was in the heart of the back, the robber fell to the ground in response, and he definitely couldn't live, and then Shi Qian walked around behind the robber, one held the robber's head, and the other hand was hard at the chin, and only heard a sound in this silent night. There was a creaking sound, and the robber also tilted his head and fell to the ground, and since then, you can see that more than a dozen robbers have all died in less than five seconds.

"Young Master." Xu Da whispered, and at the same time pointed to the bronze bell on the walled building, and at the same time, the others also quickly pulled out the ghost head knife from the robber's body, and Li Zheng knew what Xu Da meant by this bronze bell, when he just entered the walled gate, there was still a robber on the walled tower who did not come down, and the robber who opened the door for himself and went up again, the two robbers never saw it, nor did they see the figure of the robber, they should be hidden under the bunker of the walled building.

The robber who shouted 'ring the bell' just now was addressed to these two robbers. If it weren't for the fact that these two robbers hid in the bunker when the third master was trampled on the ground, when everyone was throwing the ghost head knife to kill the robbers, these two robbers were definitely the primary target, so now Li Cunxiao, Xu Da and others are still holding the ghost head knife at the bronze bell, as long as the robbers dare to get up and ring the bell, they will definitely let him know that they know the power of the ghost head knife.

"Let's go up and have a look." Li Zheng whispered.

"Young master, I'll go up and find out first." After Shi Qian finished speaking, he jumped up directly to the ground, and then stepped on the surrounding rocks and rose to the sky, less than five steps, he jumped on the walled building that was more than ten meters away and more than three meters high, and the most important thing is that the whole process of Shi Qian jumping on the walled tower did not make the slightest sound, so that everyone saw it secretly applauded, if it was not for the enemy's nest now, everyone would definitely cheer.

"Young master, these two robbers are scared to death, don't come up, I'll throw these two robbers down." After saying that, he threw down the two robbers one by one, and took off the bronze bell hanging in mid-air.
