Chapter 463: Dart Master
In the mountains, a medium-sized caravan marched slowly.
Pack horses dragged wooden carts laden with loads, the wooden wheels cutting through the dust, leaving two ruts.
The middle-aged escort named Yang Er was riding on a horse, his eyes staring at the gloomy mountain forest, and his palm with a long scar subconsciously touched the handle of the horizontal knife at his waist.
If it is a peaceful year, the caravan guard dart division is better - most of the famous green forest bandits still talk about the rules of the rivers and lakes, and the government and the dart bureau have unwritten unwritten rules to abide by.
When the dart master meets the "hero" of the green forest, after reporting to his home, he will be able to pass through the mountain pass and protect the wealth of the owner.
But the world is difficult and chaotic, and the government is busy suppressing rebellions, and it is impossible to take care of bandits in remote areas.
To make matters worse, wars and plagues have erupted in all directions, floods, droughts and locust plagues, leaving a large number of displaced people with nowhere to go.
Some bandits took the opportunity to gather the young and strong among the displaced people, gathered in the mountains and forests, and made quite a big noise.
These people don't follow the rules.
Yang Er slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and faintly felt that the scar on the back of his hand began to tingle again.
Suddenly, the sound of grass and trees breaking and trampling sounded in the deep mountains on both sides, and dozens of longing figures poured down from the mountain.
I've met bandits.
The stewards, grooms, and merchants in the caravan turned pale, and the two trembled,
The pack horse neighed uneasily, as if sensing something.
Yang Er's color changed, and he raised his fingers and whistled sharply,
The other nine caravan guards immediately took off their bows and arrows from their backs, their faces tensed, and they looked vigilantly at the mountains and forests on both sides.
The enemy is dark and I am clear, and the bandits on the mountains on both sides can easily destroy these unarmored dart guards as long as they release a few waves of random arrows.
The reason why the arrows were not released may be that the other party took a fancy to the tall horses ridden by the dart masters.
Yang Er stabilized his mind and shouted loudly: "It's not just the heroes on the mountain? Under is Lu County Wengzhou Pingyuan Dart Bureau singing, today to the precious land, the first meeting friends, in a hurry to be polite, but also please Rong brother I prepare for a few days, another day will bring a heavy bow to the mountain gate to apologize. ”
There were a few bandits on horseback on the mountain road ahead, and at the head was a short, sturdy man with a thief's eyebrows, wearing a tattered leather armor, holding a machete in his hand, with a high, broad forehead, sparse and messy teeth, and blood-red eyes protruding like fish.
The short man stared straight at Yang Er, waved the machete in his hand, spit thick phlegm on the ground, and said fiercely: "Compensation for a fart gift, the master will not eat your set,
Or, drop your weapons and leave behind everything of value,
Or, die. ”
“...”
Yang Er glanced at the trembling and helpless caravan steward, and secretly gritted his teeth, there were only ten of them in this caravan, and the others were ordinary people who had never taken weapons.
And there are at least thirty bandits on the mountains on both sides,
Even if you drop the weapon as the other party says, I'm afraid it will still be a dead word in the end.
No one made a sound, and the scene fell silent for a while,
Yang Er vaguely saw that there was an arm hanging on the side of the back of the horse that the short man was riding.
Human, roasted arms.
The horse's hooves trampled on the ground, Yang Er clenched the hilt of the horizontal knife, and several guards silently pulled the bowstring.
"Hmph, toast and don't eat and drink."
The stout bandit licked his dry and cracked lips, revealing the two rows of teeth whose gums were about to be corroded and blackened, and waved the machete in his hand, "Up!" ”
This shout seemed to have launched some signal, and dozens of wooden arrows were shot from the mountains and forests, which were so simple that they did not even have arrow feathers.
Although the formation is scattered, with the high terrain, it still has the lethality enough to take away lives.
The wooden arrows fell "dong dong", but fortunately, the frightened caravan horsemen and merchants took the opportunity to drill under the board cart.
A wave of arrows fell, wounding only two or three pack horses.
Yang Er no longer hesitated, pulled the longbow to the full string, and shot an arrow at the short man.
Iron arrows swept the wind and pierced the sky,
Seeing that the arrow feather was about to pierce through the simple leather armor worn by the opponent, penetrate the flesh and blood, and take his life,
Yang Er saw that the corners of the short man's mouth were raised high, revealing a hideous smile.
Clusters of arrows chiseled through the tattered leather armor and touched the skin,
But he issued "Zheng! The sound of a collision was instantly robbed of all kinetic energy, and it fell to the ground.
It was as if the arrow had hit not a human body, but a bronze bell.
?!
Yang Er's eyes widened, and he didn't have time to think about why the other party was able to ignore the arrows,
The body has been driven by instinct, and the cold back of the knife slapped the horse's belly, urging the horse to gallop forward.
The whole person rushed into the sturdy bandit with the momentum of a charge, and the long knife in his hand was raised high, threatening to cut off the head of the bandit directly!
"Zheng!"
The sound of gold and iron staggered sounded again, and Yang Er, who was still holding his horse and charging forward, felt a light hand and looked back,
The blade that reflected the light was spinning in mid-air, and the horizontal blade forged from iron had shattered, and only the hilt remained.
The stout bandit, on the other hand, sat upright on his horse, and reached out and touched his neck that had just been slashed by a sharp blade.
The black neck, which had not been cleaned for a long time, left only a faint white mark that disappeared with a light rub.
"Hey, hey."
The bandit chuckled in a low voice, ignoring the shouts of fighting around him, and looked down at the roasted arm placed on the side of the horse's back, "This White Lotus Venerable Master's reward for not bad golden body spells is really good..."
A few months ago, the bandit Huwan was just a prisoner who had committed a crime and was about to be exiled to the border.
A plague ravages the state and county,
killed countless dignitaries and civilians without discrimination,
He also killed the two officers who were carrying him.
So that he could take the opportunity to get out of the mountains and forests and gather to roar.
One day, two young women in white dresses and fluttering fairies rode white horses slowly across the mountains and forests.
As a mountain bandit, Hu Wan saw that he was hunting, and it was difficult to control himself.
Immediately gathered a crowd down the mountain, and was about to capture the two women.
Unexpectedly, the two women regarded the bandits as nothing, and with a wave of their long sleeves, they threw out countless golden needles, piercing through the heads of the bandits who came forward with an evil smile.
Just when Hu Wan thought that he was going to be killed by the golden needle secret weapon,
The other party spared his life, claiming that she was the maid of the White Lotus, and came to Du Hu Wan.
The so-called degree is to reward a volume of illustrated Dharma scriptures.
According to the scriptures, as long as you practice this method, you will be invulnerable, invulnerable, and invulnerable, just like Buddhism will not damage the golden body.
One of the main ways to practice is to eat your own kind.
scold
Thinking of this, Hu Wan couldn't help but be a little funny,
The plague of floods, droughts, and locusts in various parts of the world has lasted for several years.
I don't know how many places the bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for a hundred miles,
I don't know how many people are in exile, gnawing tree bark, eating grass roots, and even selling their children to survive, and cannibalism.
It's just cannibalism,
Hu Wan had already seen, tried, and even tasted it when he was a homeless person...
Thoughts dragged back to reality,
Hu Wan, who was confident that his golden body was not bad, slowly raised his head, and found out in hindsight,
I don't know when the shouting and killing around me subsided,
Not a single arrow was dropped on the hills on either side.
On the narrow mountain road, only the machetes and helpless bandits, the guards, and the caravan huddled under the wooden carts were left.
The deathly silence shrouded the mountains and forests, and it was still a sunny afternoon, but there was an unusually cold aura spreading.
A young man in a black robe walked slowly down the mountain.
