Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Autumn Wind Doesn't Move
The sky was dark red and there was a light breeze, and the soldiers in the barracks were ready to rest, and there was no one else between the tents except the patrol guards.
It is strictly forbidden to walk around in the military camp at night, it is dusk at this time, the curfew is about to begin, Su Ke and the scouts are walking outside, extremely eye-catching, and from time to time there are patrol guards looking over.
The whereabouts of the two were revealed.
This situation made Su Ke's heart move slightly: 'Guo Tao's personality is not crazy, and he is discussing such secret matters, how can he be so disregarded for details? ’
This further confirms what he saw before.
After about half a column of incense, the stable arrived.
The stables were next to the military granary, and it made sense for Guo Tao to choose to meet him here privately.
The stables are square in shape, and there are corrals on all sides, but there are not many war horses inside, and it is thought that because of the mountain battle, the war horses are not very useful.
The scout stopped at the entrance and whispered, "Grandmaster, the little one is outside, and Guo Duwei is waiting for you inside." ”
Su Ke looked up at the entrance of the stable, although it was dusk, but there were four wooden walls inside, it looked black, and the temperature inside was obviously lower than outside, but from time to time, there was a sound of war horses shaking their heads and neighing, and the war horses in it were peaceful and quiet, as if to say: 'Come in, everything is normal inside.' ’
But Su Ke was not in a hurry to enter, he stood at the door to observe, but the scout beside him was anxious, urging: "Grandmaster, the curfew is about to start, and the time is very tight. ”
Su Ke's body was still motionless, just standing two meters outside the entrance of the stable, neither advancing nor retreating, as if frozen.
"Grandmaster?" The scout became more and more anxious, looking at his appearance, if he wasn't afraid of Su Ke's supreme martial arts, he couldn't wait to push Su Ke into the stable with his own hands.
Su Ke didn't hear it, but said softly: "Alas, people are harmless and tigers, and tigers have murderous intentions. Guo Tao isn't in it, right? ”
The ...... scout was speechless, he swallowed his saliva, looking extremely nervous, and only spoke after a while: "Why did the Grandmaster say this? ”
Su Ke smiled: "I guess." I don't know what ambush is in this stable, but you're too anxious, are you under some kind of coercion? ”
After speaking, without waiting for the scout to answer, Su Ke continued: "Lin Dacheng's death must be an example of killing chickens and monkeys, Guo Duwei is loyal, and he will not be so cowardly and will not do such an ungrateful thing. And you're frightened, and you're leading me into a trap, aren't you? ”
The scout's face turned even paler and he didn't say a word, obviously being said by Su Ke.
"They are all people who have been on the battlefield, I'm afraid killing a chicken is not enough to scare you, if I guess correctly, the lives of your wife and children must have been threatened, right?"
The scout nodded with difficulty: "What the Grandmaster said, nothing is wrong, I have no choice. ”
Su Ke didn't like to listen to this kind of nonsense, and if he made a choice, he would have to bear the consequences, he had already put this scout on the must-kill list, but before killing, he still had to ask something: "How is Captain Guo now?" ”
When the scout saw that the matter was revealed, he knew that he would not be fortunate today, but he calmed down in his heart, although the task was not completed, but he died, and the general would not pursue it to the end, and chased him to his hometown to kill his wife and children, because it was useless to do so except for the vain effort.
He sighed and said, "Guo Duwei doesn't know about this yet, he has been removed from his position as a grain officer, and he has gone to patrol the mountains around the camp at this moment, I am afraid that he will ...... at this moment I'm afraid there will be more than one luck. ”
Before he finished speaking, he saw a shadow flashing in front of him, and a gust of wind wrapped in sand came to his face, blowing his eyes and forcing him to squint, and when he opened his eyes again, there was no trace of Su Ke in front of him.
"It's over." The scout immediately knew that the other party was gone, the plan had failed, and he was left with only a dead end.
However, he had already prepared for it, he knew that even if the plan was successful, the general would still kill people, and he cooperated with this plan just to save his family's life.
The scout sighed and walked into the stable.
In the stables, there were two or three Xuanjia guards standing in each empty slot, and each Xuanjia guard had a strong crossbow in his hand, and a circle of stables came down, and hundreds of Xuanjia guards were arranged.
What's even more terrifying is that there is a white mist around these Xuanjia guards, and under the cover of these fogs, the breathing sounds, blood and gas of the Xuanjia guards are not leaked, and even the surrounding war horses have not discovered their existence.
Such a concealment, such a siege by such a number of people, if Su Ke really entered the stable, even with his current Grandmaster skills, he would be designated as a blood-spattered five-step end, and there would be no exceptions.
But the problem is, he didn't go in!
At the last step, he stopped, and then this meticulous and careful arrangement was all in vain, and it became a joke.
'The autumn wind is not moving the cicada', this does not describe the martial arts of the grandmaster, but a powerful mental cultivation, which is an extremely sensitive consciousness.
In the eyes of outsiders, Su Ke showed such acumen, and he also showed an extraordinary mind. But for Su Ke himself, he mainly relies on the magic power of discernment.
The scout walked inside the stable, closed his eyes, and waited for death.
The guards had already heard the conversation outside the stable, and knew that the plan had failed, so one of the guards pulled off the bracket and with a 'whoosh', the crossbow arrow shot through the scout's heart.
To deal with such scouts, a crossbow arrow is enough, and more is a waste!
The scout died, and one of the Xuanjia guards with the green dragon pattern tattooed on his face said to the people around him in a deep voice: "Go and inform the lord that the plan has changed, and the surname Su is not fooled!" ”
"Yes!"
"Wait, tell him that the person surnamed Su is very likely to go to Guo Tao, things may change, and we will go to help!"
There are also Xuanjiawei to assassinate Guo Tao, but there are not many of them, but there are only five people, in terms of real skills, ordinary Xuanjiawei is just a third-rate, these five people are enough to deal with Guo Tao, but if they meet a martial arts master, they have no power to fight back.
After saying that, the tattooed dragon's Xuanjia guard waved his hand, except for the person who reported the news, everyone else followed him and went out of the stable together, along the way, the patrol guards in the camp ignored them, and let the group of people run out of the camp and disappear outside the camp.
The mountain forest outside the camp.
Guo Tao lit a bonfire in a clearing with a hare hanging on it, and two soldiers next to it, but they were his men who followed Guo Tao's patrol.
It stands to reason that Guo Tao is a captain, and his grade is not low, so he will not be arranged to patrol the mountain, let alone bring only two subordinates, but the general's military advisor Wu Yingxing arranged it this way, and the general also nodded and acquiesced, the military order is like a mountain, Guo Tao can only come out to patrol the mountain depressed.
"Hiss~ This wind is strangely cold."
"If only I had a drink."
The two sergeants muttered and complained, Guo Tao was a little irritable when he heard it, for some reason, his heart was heavy today, as if something big was about to happen.
He wasn't stupid either, and he had a vague feeling: 'Could it be that the valley had been leaked that day?' ’
If this is the case, then he has no way to live, he thought about escaping, but he has the same concerns as the scout, he can escape, his wife and children can't escape, and when the time comes, the general will line up a line of Xuanjia guards to go over, and he will be able to destroy his family.
Therefore, although he was ominous, Guo Tao still had a thought in the bottom of his heart: "That's it, I didn't want to be a fool." It is not too much loss to exchange my body for the lives of my parents, wives and children. ”
It was this thought that kept him from running away, and he calmly waited for death.
"Hey, the rabbit is ripe, it's so fragrant, Lord Duwei, give you a hind leg."
The sergeant under his command looked affectionate, Guo Tao took the rabbit leg, and smiled reluctantly, he felt sorry for these two young men, and estimated that the general was burying these two people as his companions.
'That's it, if you want to die, be a full ghost!' Guo Tao took a bite of rabbit meat, chewing hard, chewing and chewing, his tears fell down his cheeks, rolled down his mouth, seeped into his mouth, and became salty and bitter
The man didn't flick when he had tears, but he thought of his three-year-old son, thinking of this little thing calling his father in a tender and crispy voice, Guo Tao felt an unspeakable bitterness in his heart.
Suddenly, a mountain wind rose, followed by a ghost, and a figure suddenly appeared around the bonfire like a ghost, it was Su Ke.
Su Ke appeared too suddenly, Guo Tao was surprised and delighted: "Grandmaster, why are you here?" ”
There was a glimmer of hope in his heart, but this hope disappeared immediately, even if he was as strong as a grandmaster, how could he stand up to the great general who commanded the army?
Maybe the other party can keep him from dying, but how can he protect his wife and parents at home?
After all, manpower is sometimes poor.
Su Ke didn't speak, he suddenly raised a foot and kicked Guo Tao to the side, and before Guo Tao could be surprised, he heard three 'poof' sounds, mixed with two screams.
When he turned his head, the two brothers who followed him had a crossbow bolt stuck in their faces, which had fallen to the ground and died, and three crossbow arrows, which were stuck in the place where he was sitting just now.
Although he had been prepared, Guo Tao's heart was still cold.
'The general is so ruthless! ’
