Chapter 49: The Praying Mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind
Ding Xiang waved his hand hatefully, "The little furball is a little fox, it is the one who stole my son-in-law's Pei Yuan Dan, and designed to destroy the workshop that made blood demon drink in our suburbs." No wonder I felt that the female baby leading the way was a little familiar in the mountains, but I couldn't remember where I had seen it, and afterwards I couldn't figure out why the two krait snakes would listen to the command of the female baby, it was really like an arm, even the human beast tamer would be difficult to do. She's a female baby, and she's driven by the most brutal and venomous snake of all snakes."
Saying that, Ding Xiang's fist smashed into the bed board again, "Why?" Because they're all brutes! It's just that I haven't seen the little furball after the transformation, and I've only seen the portrait once, hey! I didn't check it for a while, but I was told by that little beast! ”
Listening to Ding Xiang's narration, Zhishan Zhenren only silently stroked his beard with his hand, and when it finished speaking, he asked: "Two days ago, the following report said that the golden-eyed black feather eagle was still carrying a little fox when it attacked, could it be the little furball you said?" "That's right," Ding Xiang roared, "it must be it!" It's the other way around, it's the other way around, it's the other way around. Hurry up, inform Ding Yuanwai of this matter, and then ask him to send more people quickly. Don't look at this little hairball has no cultivation, but it is cunning and abnormal, and I heard that there are some strange ways to escape. ”
"It's broken!" Zhishan Zhenren was shocked for a while, "Isn't that little hairball using the Flying Eagle to observe the layout of our Renyi Village Great Array?" That's right, it seems that it is really tricky to deal with this little cub, if it gets mixed with the demon beasts in the mountains, then we will not think about entering this Yin Mountain again. Thinking of this, the true person of the best kind gasped, "Then it's really a bit of trouble!" The true man hurriedly ordered his orders one by one.
After the Zhishan Zhenren finished his instructions, he came to Ding Xiang's bed again and comforted him: "When Ding Yuan sends someone to come, I will ask them to take you back to the city to recuperate first." When Ding Xiang heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said to the best real person: "Real person, I won't go, I want to watch you catch that little beast, peel its skin, and pull its tendons." Only then can I solve the hatred in my heart! ”
Zhishan Zhenren said disagreefully: "Little Brother Ding, your injuries are quite serious, you have to go back to the city to recuperate carefully, otherwise, it will affect your future cultivation, and if you don't do it, you will fall into the realm." ”
This sentence really frightened Ding Xiang, thinking about the Ding family's treatment of useless people, Ding Xiang was really a little afraid, although there was a big housekeeper like his father, but after all, he was just a subordinate. Thinking about the stakes, Ding Xiang nodded slowly, and agreed. After comforting Ding Xiang a few more words, leaving the people who were waiting, the three of them walked out of Ding Xiang's room, and when they went out, they all shook their heads and sighed, they didn't expect that a little beast who had just transformed could set off such a big storm, which was really unexpected!
At night, Renyi Village is unusually quiet, and a few people carry lanterns on the wall from time to time. From a distance, I saw a person slowly walking up to the wall, and the minions who were keeping vigil saluted one after another, "I've seen the second master." Shi Qisi waved his hand and instructed: "Everyone be careful, this mountain has been really uneven recently." ”
After finishing speaking, Shi Qisi circled around the wall, and finally stopped in front of the west wall, and after a while, he saw four minions of Renyi Village running over from the courtyard. One of them had a light talisman embroidered on his chest and a long sword at his waist, two of the other three were armed with broadswords, and the last carried a short bow behind him and a bundle of hemp rope on his shoulder.
Among the four, led by the minions with light talismans on their chests, they lined up in two rows and knelt down on one leg to salute Squith, "I've seen the second master." Shi Qisi hurriedly helped the four of them up, looked at the minion who was the leader, and asked, "Your name is Li Dabao, and you are cultivating during the Qi cultivation period, right?" It doesn't seem like we're married yet, right? ”
The man's chest straightened, he stood straight, and replied, "Yes, the seventh layer of the Qi refining period has not yet become a family." Shi Qisi patted Li Dabao's shoulder with his hand, "It's not small, it's time to start a family." ”
As he spoke, he took out a bag of things from his arms, and continued: "There are five lower-grade spirit stones here, you can take one and bring it with you first in case you need it from time to time." There are four more pieces, and I will have someone send them to your house when I go back. In addition, there are two hundred taels of silver, give it to your mother, let her hurry up in the city to ask you for a mother-in-law, and when this mission is over, you will go back to the city to get married, and then you must not forget to inform me, I will take the brothers of Renyi Village to give you congratulations. ”
Saying that, Shi Qisi took out a porcelain bottle from his waist again, "Oh, there is also a bottle of Huiqi Pill here, this is a baby, you must not use it until the critical moment, there is only one grain in it, once you feel that you can't support it, quickly swallow it, it will make you refreshed and your strength will recover as before." ”
Li Dabao knelt on the ground with a "poof", kowtowed three times to Shi Qisi's "Dangdang", moved to two lines of tears, opened his mouth for a long time and didn't think about what to say, and finally held Shi Qisi's hand, and said sonorously: "My life Li Dabao is yours, if I go out to do something this time, I will never come back to see you alive!" Shi Qisi waved his hand, "What kind of stupid things do you say, you have to come back alive for me whether you succeed or not, the brothers in this village and your wife are still waiting for you!" ”
After talking to Li Dabao, Shi Qisi came to the other three and asked for their names and cultivation one by one, the three of them in this line were all ordinary body refining stage cultivators, and Shi Qisi also rewarded each with a bottle of Huiqi Pill, and promised a reward of fifty taels of silver per person afterwards.
In the end, Shi Qisi turned back to the four of them and said: "This time Renyi Village suffered a catastrophe, the brothers in the village were killed and injured one after another, and the Xiangyin Village and the demon beasts in the mountains had collusion intentions, especially when I heard that there was a little fox called Little Furball who escaped from the city, he was very ruthless and cunning, this time in order to find out the truth of Xiangyin Village, he had to bother the four brothers to run a trip, and when he arrived in the village, he must not act rashly, just observe secretly, and report back quickly if there is any news." Then he clasped his fists at the four of them and bowed to the ground, "Please!" ”
Li Dabao and the others hurriedly returned the salute with trepidation, "The four of us will do our best to live up to the trust, please rest assured!" With that, the four of them got up and went up to the wall, divided into two teams, and fell down the wall with ropes from both directions. Quietly sneaking in the direction of Xiangyin Village, the two teams were fifty zhang apart, day and night, and only used the special bird call as a communication signal.
When they arrived at Xiangyin Village, it was already the beginning of the morning, and the four of them leaned over with sharp blades in their hands and slowly touched the entrance of the village. A scrawny dog was lying lazily on the side of the road, and suddenly he noticed four sneaky strangers, who were shot through the body by a sharp arrow before they could scream, and fell to the ground. Then one of them hurriedly picked up the dog with the arrow and threw it into the grass on the side. The four of them hid in the woods outside the village and laid an ambush, but after waiting for more than an hour, they didn't see anyone in the village going out.
Li Dabao led the other three to simply hide in the village, waiting for the villagers who returned to the village, so that they could catch a few live mouths to ask. After waiting for a long time, there was still no one to see.
Li Dabao had no choice but to discuss with the three of them, "This time, the second boss attaches so much importance to this matter, and rewards us with so much silver, if we go back empty-handed, it will be shameless to face the second master." Let's wait here for two more days, if there is no one yet, we will go into the mountain pass, even if it is only in the mountain pass, how can it be regarded as entering the mountain, if there is still no discovery, then we will go home, even if we see the second master, it is easy to explain. ”
The four of them made up their minds. One person was sent to collect some dry food and water in the village, while the remaining three continued to ambush.
When it was almost noon on the second day, four men and three women leaned over and slowly approached Xiangyin Village, and from time to time they hid in the grass next to them to look at the entrance of the village. Seeing this, Li Dabao and the four of them slowly dispersed, the man with a bow and arrow was lying on the roof of a house at the entrance of the village, Li Dabao hid in another courtyard at the entrance of the village, stepping on a square table under his feet, holding on to the courtyard wall, half-arched, only showing two eyes to look outside the village, and the remaining two hid in an ambush at a corner of the village.
Li Dabao watched the four men and three women tiptoe close to the entrance of the village, and only heard the villagers talking in a whisper, "Everyone has memorized the location, as soon as we enter the village, we will go to find our own things." Let's leave after taking something, don't bring anything else useless, everyone can remember, go back quickly, don't delay, and run as soon as there is a situation. ”
Seeing that these seven people entered Xiangyin Village, Li Dabao climbed out of the courtyard wall and came to the outside of the village with a light body technique. At this time, the village exploded all of a sudden, and the two minions blocking the corner suddenly jumped out with big knives in their hands to block the way, but what they didn't expect was that the old man who was the leader of the seven people was really brave, and he knocked over a bandit in front of him with a wooden stick in his hand, and before the other bandit could react, the old man had already rushed past him, just when the two bandits turned around to chase, a sharp arrow on the roof cut through the sky, and the old man who had run out more than a dozen steps shot to the ground with a "poof".
The remaining six people were all shocked when they saw this scene, the three women were so frightened that they hugged their heads and cried, and the other three old men turned around and wanted to return the same way.
As soon as he returned to the entrance of the village, he saw a person jumping high from the side of the road, holding a cold and shining sword in his hand, holding it high above his head, and slashing at the head of a person running in front with the help of a downward rush, the man saw the sword split, a sideways, but it was too late, the sword was too fierce, and directly cut off half of its head, and the red and white things immediately splattered out, and the dead body fell to the ground.
When the two of them saw this scene, they were also so frightened that they fell to the ground, trembling and kneeling vigorously to beg for mercy, shouting, "Uncle spare your life!" Uncle spare your life! ”
Li Dabao drove the five surviving villagers together, and after a brief inquiry, the five people honestly told the current hiding place - Python Valley, and said that they came back secretly to get some things this time, and the others really didn't know.
Li Dabao hurriedly instructed his companions to inform Renyi Village, and after a while, a ringing arrow shot out in the direction of Renyi Village, and the tail of the arrow was still running with flames, and after flying about one or two hundred steps high, it exploded with a bang, and the arrow only turned into sawdust and scattered all over the ground, followed by two identical arrows.
Then he heard the roar of the Fatian troll in the direction of Renyi Village from a distance, and Li Dabao slapped his thigh, "It's done, as long as we can escort them back, haha, it's a great achievement in front of the three masters!" Walking! Li Dabao's mind already had the scene of himself wearing a red wedding robe and marrying a bride.
After being stunned for a while, Li Dabao, who reacted to where he was, hurriedly put away his thoughts, tied the five villagers into a string with hemp rope, and cut off the heads of the two dead villagers, let the villagers carry them by themselves, and drove them back in the direction of Renyi Village.
