Chapter 60: On Raiding and Robbing Houses
…………
The scorching sun is shining, I can't say what season it is, anyway, it will be very hot at this time of year, and Tianxing Mountain, which is located at the turn of the north and south, enjoys this noble treatment every year, as if it has one more summer than the northern province and one more winter than the southern province.
A team of dart masters escorting a whole thirty boxes of belongings was stationed in a shady place near the mountains and rivers, taking off their shoes and socks, washing some swollen feet with stream water, leaving the seven or eight experienced dart masters to guard them, and the others tried their best to put themselves in the shade, for fear that the scorching sun would hit them again.
An older dart master took a handful of cool mountain springs, and after feeling the coolness with the palm of his hand, he washed his face, but suddenly frowned.
It doesn't taste right!
Looking upstream, a childish young dart master was urinating on the other side at some point.
The mood that was originally calmed down by the cool stream suddenly became disgusting, and he spit out the water that should be sweet and clear, and scolded: "Bah, bah! Disgusting, throw that bastard apprentice down to me! ”
Poof!
The young master jumped into the water a little upstream, and looked at the old master with a grin.
The old dart master looked helpless, this apprentice is good at talent, but his temperament is too stubborn, not like himself back then.
The young dart master walked over happily and said with a smiling face: "Master, do you think that our dart trip will be too dangerous, such a large number of goods, although the Jingwang Mansion didn't say what it is, but they have a large number of soldiers who don't need it, so they have to let our dart bureau take it." ”
The old dart master sighed and said, "The matter of the prince and the general can be explained clearly, besides, you bastard, our dart game is ......."
"Okay, okay, I know, no matter how you blow it, it's a thing of the past, the glory of the imperial plaque is the ancestor's, not ours, now the world has been peaceful for a long time, and the army has no battle to start suppressing bandits, mother, don't talk about ringing horses along the way, even thieves haven't met one, I see, we have to sleep on the streets sooner or later, it's better to be a guy."
The old dart master's face turned dark, and he slapped his apprentice's head and scolded: "What do you little fart know about this...... Alas............"
Looking up at the sky, he actually wanted to hear his late master explain this to him.
The big departure dart industry is getting more and more sluggish.
As his apprentice said, the world is not the same as a few years ago before the domination of the world, and the people of the world also like to make money and work diligently.
This is also inseparable from the unfortunate death of the first emperor, like in the past, the fierce folk customs of leaving the country, fighting, fighting, robbing the house, and directly doing it without saying the right three sentences are not too common.
Now, however, it is said that the road is not too much, but it is true that there is not a single thief who has thoughts about this batch of property along the way.
I feel so sad in my heart.
A middle-aged dart master who had just finished his vigilance walked over, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said: "Master Ji, isn't it a little risky for us to go this time, although there are heavy troops stationed in Syracuse City, but there are still a lot of thieves in this part of Tianxing Mountain, should we break it up and divide it into ......?"
Master Ji turned his head, glanced at him and said, "You know a fart, Lao Tzu has already bet on the line of Tianxing Mountain for no less than twenty times, and he is very clear about the situation here." ”
He turned his head again and glared at his nonchalant apprentice, who suddenly understood and changed to a deaf look.
The old dart master's face softened a little, and he slowly explained: "This Tianxing Mountain is one of the best mountains in my country, the terrain is steep, vertical and horizontal nineteen roads, and there is the morning bell peak natural danger, and the bandits are also different factions, but they all rely on the natural danger to become bigger and stronger. ”
"Before the establishment of Snowy City, this was the frontier of Dali and Naguo Zuo for more than 300 years, and countless outlaws in the two countries rushed here, occupying the mountain as the king, and the merchants on both sides were miserable, but they needed each other's materials, so they spent heavy troops to build Snowy City for the two sides to market each other."
"So, the bandits here are different from the small places outside, they are very wild! And the power is huge, a cottage can easily exceed a thousand people, if we are like in the plains, if the detachment passes through 12, we will definitely be eaten by this group of bandits. ”
The middle-aged dart master had a look of sudden realization on his face.
The young dart master buckled the ear droppings, followed his master to walk so many darts, these words have been heard more than a hundred times, the ears have heard the cocoon coming, this line he has also walked many times, but never had an accident, just as the wind in the ear, one ear in and one ear out, so pat the buttocks, patrol.
The old dart master looked at the casual appearance of his apprentice, turned his head to look at the people who were sitting or lying down chatting, and sighed.
How can the green darts be passed on......
…………
In fact, Ji Lao's caution is not unreasonable.
In the dense forest five hundred meters away from the cool mountain spring, a pair of eyes stared at those thick boxes, glowing green.
They had been in ambush here since dawn, waiting for the fat sheep dart team that the spies they had caught a few days ago had said.
Although it is also shady, this place is very different from the feng shui treasure of the dart team, and when you are here, you will feel like you are sweating uncontrollably when you don't do anything.
The thieves who were lying in ambush in the grass scratched their ears and cheeks one by one, and sweat was left along the dirty hair, scratching one stain after another on the tattered clothes, and the smell was even more unpleasant.
"Boss Wu...... The brothers can't stand it anymore, when will they go? ”
The body is extremely terrifying, but Wu Tong, who is extremely cumbersome here, his face is pale, sweating profusely, and he is out of breath, even if he is in the realm of a martial artist, he is still a little unbearable high temperature and humidity.
"Mo ...... Did you hear from the gentleman? ”
The cronies behind him turned pale, and there were already some signs of heat stroke, and he said weakly: "No, Mr. Mo has not heard from him since a letter from an hour and a half ago, he only said let us wait, if we can't wait, we will go first, he has to reorganize the troops first, and then slowly figure it out." ”
Rao is Wu Tong, who has always been respectful to Mo Ge, who has been deeply trusted since he fell from the sky, and couldn't help but scold at this time: "This surname Mo is too unreliable, the king should give me those minions directly!" ”
"That's it, Boss Wu, in terms of your means and ability, if you have those troops, where do you need the help of that outsider!"
"I don't think that person surnamed Mo has the ability to run out of the pursuit of the masters of the Daode Sect, so he can't be lying to us all the time."
Wu Tong frowned, and said in a deep voice: "This kind of thing can't be talked about, besides, this person has been treating the eldest brother's injuries, and the eldest brother's face is getting better and better, just this point, we can't fall out with him......"
He paused, and then said with some gloom: "At least until the eldest brother recovers from his injury......"
"Boss Wu is wise!"
Wu Tong's eyes flickered as he looked at the dart game not far away, how to surprise the attack, how to intercept, he had already made a draft in his heart, and deduced it no less than ten times.
"Damn! Don't wait, just draw the knife and give it to me! ”
The thief behind him heard this, changed his weak appearance that was destroyed by the high temperature before, and raised his patchwork weapon with a roar.
"Sharp, you take the twenty man straight down the mountain, the second tip, you take the twenty man to outflank from the left, the third sharp, you also take the twenty man, from the right to deal with the two sharp."
Wu Tong turned his head and shouted to the person behind him: "Five sharps, you swim away with the rest of the people, and don't let go of a fish that slips through the net!" ”
The thieves' eyes lit up one by one, and they were gearing up.
"Go up! Fuck it! ”
A flock of migratory birds arose from the forest, and then all the thieves who were crawling in the grass jumped up at once, carrying knives and guns, like locusts, and rushed towards the dart team not far away.
……
Birds scream!
The old dart master's pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked at the jungle in the distance, only to see the thieves of different shapes rushing towards his group, screaming, as if looking at prey, his eyes lit up.
"Get it all up!"
The old dart's face was a little pale at this time, the number of thieves in that group was twice as large as that of his side, and they were all outlaws who licked blood on the tip of the knife, especially those who had never seen much of the world, and they all relied on the old dart to teach the apprentices, and at this time the hand holding the knife was trembling slightly.
Ji Lao Dart Master looked calm, in the end, he had been walking darts for many years, and he was born in the rivers and lakes recklessly, so he made a gesture, and the young dart masters reacted, and hurriedly pulled out the crossbow arrows in their pockets and lined up the formation.
"Shoot!"
Black crossbow arrows that were so fast that they were invisible flew silently, only the screams of the wind that were extremely fast.
"Ahh
The screams of the bandits rang out.
Seeing this, the disciple surnamed Ji Lao Dart Master breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to look at the master who was in command, and a slight color flashed in his eyes.
It turns out that as the master said, the bandits are actually paper tigers, they can't eat enough and can't wear warm, where do they have a lot of strength to rob homes and houses.
The formation of the bandit charge was completely disrupted, and there were heavy casualties.
The old dart masters unsheathed their blades and rushed towards the scattered bandit ranks, and after the light of the handle flashed, a large area of blood was spilled.
This group of old dart masters are mostly green forest heroes and retired soldiers, sophisticated and ruthless, deadly, this is actually stained with the light of the Taiping world, in exchange for the previous generation of old dart masters, those are bloodthirsty thugs, there are countless outlaws who have broken out of prison and are full of blood debts, and they don't go to rob the bandits.
The form was almost one-sided, the bandits screamed and died of serious injuries one by one, and as far as the eye could see, there was not much left of this charging team!
"Whew...... Master Zu blessed, there is no danger, there is no danger. ”
Old Master Ji folded his hands and thanked Master Zu for his kindness, which was indispensable after every time he repelled a thief.
"Sir, are you glad a little early?"
The sound of an urn coming from behind him.
The surrounding light was blocked out a little.
Ji Dart's heart was terrified, and as soon as the long knife in his hand was about to be unsheathed, a gust of evil wind struck, from head to toe, along with the horses behind him, and even the people and horses were split in half!
