Chapter 53 The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada and Wins
Cheng Mo's matter was just a small episode.
Gu An was only a little depressed for a while, and then he thought about it.
What he was most concerned about at the moment was the agreement with Yan Bing, and seeing that he was about to arrive at the agreed place, he was also starting to get nervous in his heart.
He wasn't afraid, but worried about whether Yan Bing would be able to come as promised.
This time the matter is very important, and it has a lot to do with their future tasks, so Gu An is particularly concerned.
Therefore, Gu An had already asked Zhao Chong and the others to pay close attention to the surrounding situation in advance, and also asked the soldiers to maintain a high degree of vigilance and deal with the impending danger anytime and anywhere.
Mu Wanqin is also aware of this plan, so she is also paying attention to the dynamics ahead.
Ruoyi returned to the princess after she couldn't "convince" Cheng Mo, after all, it was the safest place, and Mu Wanqin didn't want her to be in danger.
Mu Wanqin looked at Cheng Mo, who was following her closely, and began to persuade him to come: "Cheng Mo, there will be bad people who will harm us later, so you can help Gu An and them!" ”
Cheng Mo glanced at Mu Wanqin, shook his head and said, "I want to protect you and don't let the bad guys hurt you!" ”
Mu Wanqin said resolutely: "I'm safe here, I don't need protection, just go and help them!" ”
Cheng Mo shook his head and didn't speak.
Mu Wanqin's face sank, and she said sternly: "Since you don't listen to me, then leave!" I don't need your protection! ”
Cheng Mo saw Mu Wanqin's angry appearance, and he was also scared, touched his bald head, and said innocently: "Then I'll go!" ”
Mu Wanqin also breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Well, this is good!" ”
Now the only thing she worries about is Gu An.
Because of Cheng Mo's joining, Leng Wushuang has now become the princess's personal guard, so the princess's safety is also guaranteed.
The Stone Forest is a special place near Mt. Dangqiu, and it is called the Stone Forest because of the mountains of scattered stones.
At this moment, Yan Bing was ambushed here, and the people who followed Swallowtail were beside him.
Five of them are exemplary, and they are the main people who deal with Gu An this time.
The Fire Envoy asked Yan Bing very unceremoniously, "Yan Bing, when will they arrive, Gu An, we have been waiting here for three hours." ”
Yan Bing said expressionlessly, "Fire Envoy, don't worry, it's coming soon!" ”
The firebringer gave up and waited quietly, as did the other four messengers.
The leader, Swallowtail, is alone and meditating with his eyes closed, adjusting his state.
After a while, one of the soldiers reported: "General, here comes the man!" ”
Yan Bing looked at it, and sure enough, he saw a long dragon appearing not far away, it was Gu An's team.
Yan Bing didn't dare to slack off, and immediately walked up to Swallowtail and said, "My lord, they're here!" ”
Swallowtail opened his eyes, and the essence of his eyes flashed, revealing a dangerous sneer: "It's finally here!" When they get closer, you attack and disrupt their formation, and I'll go to your aid!" ”
Yan Bing looked at the cold smile of the swallowtail, and his heart was also abrupt, but he stubbornly said, "Yes, my lord!" ”
After Yan Bing retreated, he came to the command point, and when he saw the approaching team, he was excited even if he was looking forward to it, but he also had some worries in his heart.
But thinking of the preparations he made, he was also relieved.
He secretly asked Wang Ming to send a message to Gu An, informing Gu An of the news that he was about to attack.
This was the result of his previous discussions with Gu An.
At this moment, Gu An was also nervously looking at this chaotic stone forest, this was the place where the big battle was about to start.
Suddenly, his expression froze, it turned out that Wang Ming had passed a message to him, informing him that Yan Bing had attracted the people of Swallowtail had arrived, and he was about to make a feint.
After Gu An received the information, he nodded to Zhao Chong beside him and asked him to prepare.
A "big war" is inevitable, and naturally it needs to be realistic, so that Dovetail can convince them that it is all the result they envisioned.
"Kill!"
Suddenly, a shout rang out from all around.
Hearing this killing sound, Gu An's eyes suddenly became "flustered".
Yan Bing rode a tall horse, holding his five-ring gold-edged broadsword and rushed towards Gu An's side with high morale.
"Not good, there is an enemy attack!"
The soldiers on Gu An's side began to sort out the ranks in a panic, but the enemy on that side had already rushed in.
As soon as the people from the two sides fought, Gu An's side showed a defeat.
Swallowtail and the others, who were watching from the sidelines, showed a smug look.
That's what they want.
As long as the army can't be effective, then what are Gu An and the others afraid of?
This was the voice of the Five Exercisers and the others, and they naturally didn't think that Gu An could still turn the sky in their hands.
And Gu An and Yan Bing glanced at each other, and both understood what the other meant.
So Gu Anxin was also relieved, and waited patiently for the swallowtail to appear.
And Gu An also instructed Zhao Chong to pretend to be invincible and slowly retreat.
Gu An looked not far away, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing an inexplicable expression, which was where Yanwei and the others were ambushed.
Seeing that the situation had been decided, their side was in an advantage, and Gu An was about to flee, they couldn't help but ask, "My lord, they are ready to escape, when will we make a move?" ”
Swallowtail stared at the battlefield calmly, and said unhurriedly: "Wait, see if they really retreat." ”
After waiting for a while, seeing that Gu An's team had really fled in a panic, Swallowtail settled down and said, "Prepare to do it!" ”
Immediately, he rode his horse and rushed towards Gu An's position, and the five exercisers followed closely behind.
Gu An always paid attention to the situation over there, and under Yan Bing's instructions, he naturally knew that Yanwei and the others were staying there.
Although he had never seen a swallowtail, when he saw the person who took the lead, he knew that the person was swallowtail, which was his intuition.
And he also stood on horseback, smiled, and quietly waited for Swallowtail and the others to arrive.
Swallowtail came to Gu An and asked a little strangely, "Huh?" Gu An, you didn't run away alone! ”
Swallowtail is cautious, and he immediately became vigilant about Gu An's appearance.
Gu An laughed and said, "Haha, you are a swallowtail, you really make me wait!" ”
Swallowtail said indifferently: "Hmph, today is your death date, you are just proud for a moment!" ”
Gu An immediately looked at the few people behind him, and asked sarcastically, "What, are you planning to beat me in groups?" ”
Swallowtail sneered: "I'm afraid!" But it's useless, as long as he kills you, he doesn't care what means! ”
Gu An was helpless, touched his nose and said, "You are going to eat me!" It's a pity to disappoint you! ”
Swallowtail suddenly had a bad feeling: "Well, what do you mean?" ”
Gu An sneered: "It's not interesting, it's just that you're going to die here today!" ”
Swallowtail looked at Gu An and said disdainfully, "You rely on you?" ”
"Haha!"
The people behind Swallowtail also burst into laughter, laughing at Gu An's indiscretion, they had never seen such a "confident" person!
That's scared silly!
So they looked at Gu An with a hint of sarcasm in their eyes.
They thought that this Gu An was so amazing, but they didn't expect it to be like this, it was really a waste of their expressions.
Gu An didn't say anything more, but clapped his hands.
At this moment, a group of men and horses suddenly rushed out and surrounded everyone.
And Zhao Chong and the other four generals also arrived in three, among them, Gu Yan was commanding the troops, and the other two also followed Zhao Chong.
In addition, Mu Wanqin also took Cheng Mo to watch here not far away. Originally, Zhao Chong didn't want her to come, but he couldn't resist her, so he had to let her stay not far away and let someone escort her.
Mu Wanqin looked at the surrounded swallowtail crowd and said to Cheng Mo: "Old Cheng, you go and deal with this group of bad guys!" ”
Cheng Mo nodded, he had agreed to this matter before, and he didn't say much, so he came to Gu An's side, fiddled with the axe in his hand a few times, and looked at Swallowtail and the others coldly.
Swallowtail smiled angrily: "Okay, good, I didn't expect Yan Bing, a guy who eats inside and out, to dare to betray me!" ”
At this point, he still didn't understand that this was Yan Bing's doing.
In his heart, he couldn't wait to cut Yan Bing with a thousand knives and relieve the hatred in his heart.
However, he also understands that this revenge can only be avenged when he has a chance to escape from here.
Now their situation is not optimistic, one careless will be wiped out, and he will not be spared.
Swallowtail commanded his subordinates: "Wait and try to kill Gu An!" ”
He can only pin his hopes on killing Gu An now, so that they can have a chance of survival.
Gu An didn't take swallowtail's words to heart, he wouldn't let them go.
"Kill!"
After hearing Gu An's words, Cheng Mo took the lead.
As soon as he mentioned the big axe, he rushed towards the swallowtail, this is the key person that Mu Wanqin specially explained, he wanted to cut this person down and make his "brother" happy.
Zhao Chong and the others also rushed towards Swallowtail and the others.
Swallowtail saw a bald man stop him, and immediately said angrily: "Get out of the way!" ”
He was about to step forward to kill Gu An, but he didn't want this bald guy to come out and stop him, which made him angry.
So Swallowtail used his own longsword to get rid of this eye-catching guy.
"Well, it's so strong!"
As soon as he touched it, he felt a strong force pounding on his wrist, making his hand holding the long sword a little painful.
He couldn't help but look at this bald man.
It seems that he underestimated the enemy, this person is not simple, no wonder Gu An asked him to deal with himself, but he has some ability.
But he doesn't care, it's just a brute, do you think you can deal with him with some brute force? It's a dream.
So Swallowtail got off the horse, intending to let the bald guy have a good look at his kung fu.
The swallowtail here was entangled by Cheng Mo, but the others still had fish that slipped through the net and rushed towards Gu An.
Gu An looked at the two people rushing towards him, and sneered: "There are still two people, it's okay, let me do it myself, just to avenge Brother Zhao." ”
These two are the Water Messenger and the Golden Messenger.
The other three were stopped by Zhao Chong and the others, and the two of them had no one to stop them, so they ran towards Gu An.
The golden envoy was extremely excited in his heart: "Haha, this Gu An will eventually die in his own hands!" ”
Then he glanced at the water envoy, and the water envoy immediately understood the intention of the eldest brother, after all, she and the golden envoy have been partners for many years, and the two have a tacit understanding with each other.
When Gu An was about to make a move, the two surrounded him.
This water messenger is the best at hidden weapons, a kind of "embroidery needle" hidden weapon, she is ruthless, and it is directly a killing move.
Gu An frowned: "What a vicious mind!" ”
But he was not afraid, and then used his long sword to knock out the hidden weapon.
And the golden envoy suddenly appeared on Gu An's side at this time.
Seeing that the golden envoy's fist was about to hit Gu An, at this moment, a stone suddenly appeared and hit the fist.
It turned out that Leng Wushuang had just arrived, so he shot and hit the golden messenger's fist with a stone.
Although Leng Wushuang knew that this punch could not hurt Gu An at all, he still made a move.
