In a ravine deep on the periphery of the 100,000 Great Mountain, more than 80 crossbow-carrying men sat silently on the ground munching on dry food, these men and women, all of them had mottled bloodstains on their clothes.

Not far from them, dozens of corpses lay on the ground, each with several bloody holes left by crossbow arrows, but the crossbow arrows had apparently been recovered.

"What the hell is going on, why is everyone here to hunt us down?" a big man suddenly threw the rest of the jerky in his hand to the ground after eating two bites of jerky, and roared with indignation.

"Are you afraid that others won't find us?" the young man in the lead glared at him, picked up the jerky on the ground one by one, and handed it to this person.

These people are the villagers of Lijia Village led by Li Yong, this team originally had more than 200 people, but now there are only 83 people left, and the rest have been killed.

When Li Yong led the crowd to the vicinity of Valan Mountain, he was worried that he would be served by the Valan bandits, so he divided the crowd into ten groups. A few days ago, he suddenly saw two smoke signals calling for help, and when he arrived, he found that both groups of people had been killed, and all of them had their heads cut off.

At first, Li Yong thought that the Varan bandits did it, so he asked all the people in the other groups to move to the depths of the periphery, but he didn't expect another puff of smoke to appear on the way, and this time because everyone was not too far away, so they arrived a little faster.

When they arrived, they found that it was not the Waran bandits, but the hunting teams of other villages, and the people of Lijia Village had already knelt on the ground and surrendered, but those people still cut off their heads.

After Li Yong wiped out the hunting team and buried the people in Lijia Village, he didn't dare to let everyone disperse anymore. When he gathered everyone together, he counted the number of people and found that five teams had been lost.

After knowing that those villages were helping Valan Village search for their traces, Li Yong dared to keep this area, and hurriedly led the team to rush towards the inner periphery of the 100,000 Mountain, wanting to go around the outer periphery of the 100,000 Dashan Mountain through the edge of the inner enclosure and join the other team led by Sanwa.

After more than a month of hunting, the shooting skills of his men have already been almost perfected. If it was in the open field, Li Yong believed that with more than 80 people under his command, it would be enough to easily wipe out the hunting team of any village, but it was a pity that this was a hundred thousand mountains, and there were dense mountains and forests everywhere.

The vision in the mountains and forests is not wide enough, and the power of the crossbow is greatly limited, and if it is ambushed, it is not even as good as a fork and a stick. What's more, in the hunting teams of other villages, there are True Martial Realm masters in charge.

However, fortunately, the other party was careless at the beginning and did not think about ambushing, so he was able to be rushed here by Li Yong. If the other party had paid attention to the ambush at the beginning, I was afraid that they would have been wiped out by the other party long ago.

Even if the other party had missed the best opportunity to ambush, Li Yong and the others were not comfortable. Now not far behind them hangs a hunting team of three villages united, the captain of this hunting team is extremely shrewd, he does not charge, every time he catches up with Li Yong and others, he just let his subordinates shoot at the people of Lijia Village with bows and arrows.

The range of the ten-stone crossbow is indeed much farther than those ordinary bows, but there are many trees in the dense forest, so the gap between everyone is not so big - those people only need to guard against the crossbow arrows that run through the big trees in Lijia Village.

The other party has been chasing them for three days, and in this pursuit, more than 20 people have died in Lijia Village, and the number of casualties continues to increase, while the number of people on the other side is increasing.

After all, it was not only the hunting teams of these three villages that were chasing Lijia Village, but the hunting teams of more than 80 villages in the entire ten miles and eight townships.

The corpses at their feet belonged to a hunting party, whom they had met by chance half an hour earlier. The men of the hunting party obviously had no experience in fighting crossbows, and had not heard anyone else say how to deal with them, so as soon as the two sides met, they immediately launched a charge.

However, after seeing the power of the crossbow, he threw down dozens of corpses and fled.

Although they repelled another wave of attacks, Li Yong was not happy at all, and now they were seriously short of crossbow arrows. When they first came out, they brought nearly 20,000 crossbow arrows, but now there are less than 3,000 left.

It's up to everyone to recover the crossbow arrows as soon as they have the opportunity, otherwise I'm afraid that they will run out of ammunition and food at this time.

"Everyone, hurry up and eat, and when we're done, let's continue to walk inside." ”

Li Yong looked at the villagers who were already tired, and said with a solemn face: "Before tonight, we must find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack to rest for a night, otherwise the other party will not have to beat us, and we will be exhausted to death if we drag it like this." ”

None of the people spoke, but after eating silently, they immediately followed Li Yong and continued to walk towards the depths of the 100,000 Great Mountain.

After turning over this mountain, it is the inner enclosure of 100,000 mountains, and it is rumored that there are many monsters in the inner enclosure, and those monsters will collapse and crack the ground when they lift their feet, and a yawn is a raging wind, and the monsters like to feed on people. It's just that everyone in Lijia Village may be numb, and no one shows the slightest fear.

Everyone just walked forward in silence.

The mountain road is steep and winding, only one person is more than 100 zhang long, and there are thousands of cliffs on the side of the mountain road. After the last person also walked out of the mountain road, Li Yong breathed a sigh of relief, he was not worried that someone would fall, but worried about the pursuers behind him.

On such mountain roads, if the hunting teams of the other villages chase after them, there is no way to dodge. Fortunately, it has now passed safely.

After Li Yong glanced around, he immediately decided to set up camp here for a night's rest. If the hunting party wanted to catch up, they had to take this mountain road, and they only had to guard this road.

Everyone found a shelter from the wind at the top of the mountain, and just took out the jerky and water, and before they could take a sip, they heard the shouts of several people in charge of patrolling.

"Village Chief, they're coming up from behind!"

Li Yong was taken aback when he heard the voice, and hurriedly looked towards the southern hillside of the inner enclosure. The slope is steep, but it is much gentler than the north, and the slope is covered with thick trees that hide the road.

At this time, on the spacious mountain road, I don't know how many people are touching the hillside through the cover of the tree trunk, and the leader is actually the second master of Valan Village!

"Village chief, the road here is also blocked by them. The two men guarding the mountain road to the north also shouted.

Li Yong hurriedly ran over to take a look, only to see that at the entrance of the mountain road, there were already hundreds of people guarding there. Those people blocked the mountain road with boulders, and then hid behind the boulders and looked at Li Yong and others on this side of the mountain road.

The area on the top of the mountain is very small, and they can't pull the shooting distance at all, although Lijiacun belongs to the down, and the opponent shoots from the back, but there are huge trees on the opposite side, and the top of the mountain is only bare rocks.

"Is the sky going to kill my Li family village, and the sky is going to kill me Li Yong?" Li Yong broke out in a cold sweat when he climbed it.

Night is slowly falling, the sky is dotted with stars, the mountains and forests are dim, and the lights have been lit at this time in the Valan village not far away.

The light came out of the mouth of the circular valley of Valan Mountain, and from a distance it looked like a pot of coal. It's just that although the lights in the Valan Village are bright, it seems extremely quiet, and it is similar to the previous crowds.

In fact, there are still hundreds of people in the cottage today, but since three days ago, these little minions have not dared to chirp, and everyone knows that the big boss has been in a bad mood in the past two days.

Three days ago, the falcon had fled and had been reprimanded, and then sent out by the two village owners. This time, all the bandits in the whole village were sent out, and the other six early martial artists of the Yuanwu Realm were also sent out.

Not long after these people left, the second boss also left, and now in addition to the little minions, there is only one big boss left.

At this time, in the central hall of the cottage, the owner of the cottage was drinking alone, and his ears were full of insults outside the cottage.

Before leaving, the second master instructed the big boss not to leave the valley no matter what, and for this junior brother, the big boss believed very much, since he said that he couldn't leave, then he must not leave.

It's just that......

"Tree cat, there is a kind of fight with your third grandfather for 300 rounds! You pus, soft eggs, and unseeded rammers, come out!"

After the big boss poured half of a jar of wine into his mouth, he smashed the jar that had not yet been drunk out of the main hall.

"Rubbish!

The big boss stood up, kicked the table in front of him and flew out, and shouted out of the door: "Come on, bring another jar of wine to Lao Tzu!"

Hearing the voice of the big boss, a little minion immediately walked in with a wine jar, but the little minion walked trembling and very nervous, as if he was afraid of accidentally provoking the angry boss. In fact, he was already the fifth little minion to deliver wine today, and the first four were all thrown out of the hall by the big boss with his neck broken.

Outside the door of the main hall, in addition to the four corpses that no one dared to clean up so far, there were seventeen or eighteen wine jars that were thrown out of the door before they had finished drinking. The wine jar was shattered, and the wine flowed to the ground, washing the bluestone at the entrance of the main hall into shiny colors.

Outside the gate of Valan Village, the two people who called for the battle were none other than Tang Yi and Li Laosan.

On that day, after Tang Yi learned that the baby's time was short, he took the baby to sit quietly on the roof of the Laifu Inn for a night, and after handing the baby over to Li Lao to take care of the next day, with the help of Mrs. Zhang, he avoided the surveillance of Valanzhai and quietly left Heishuizhuang.

This is also thanks to General Zhang and his guards, who refused the request of the Varan bandits to enter the city, and stopped all the Varan bandits outside Heishui Village, and it was in this way that Tang Yi was able to hide under the carriage and leave quietly.

After leaving Heishuizhuang, Tang Yi immediately returned to Lijia Village and brought Li Laosan to the foot of Valan Mountain, the two of them came here for nothing else, just to lure the snake out of the hole, lure the big boss out of the lair, and then occupy Valan Mountain.

As a general guarding one side, even if his official position is not high, how could General Zhang not want to get rid of this cancer for his rule? However, first, the officials did not allow it, and second, the terrain of Walanzhai was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if it was a strong attack, Mo said that he only had 500 men under his command, and even if he was given another 500, he would not be able to attack it.

General Zhang told Tang Yi that if Tang Yi could lure the bandits out of their lair and occupy Valan Mountain, then he was willing to risk being dismissed from office and take action to clean up the tumor of Shili Baxiang.
