Volume 1 The ups and downs of life Chapter 42 Separate actions
Gu Hongsan glanced at everyone and said, "The four of us account for eighty percent of the bounty and treasury income of this operation, and the remaining two percent will be shared equally by you." Personal gains go to individuals. Is there anything you have to say about this distribution?"
The most powerful people have already spoken in a group, what can everyone say? Not to mention that many of them just drink soy sauce and soup. So they all nodded in agreement.
"Since everyone agrees, let's get ready. I discussed tactics with Ding Jiandao. Wait a minute. Gu Hongsan and Ding Jian exchanged glances, and the two went to the side to talk in a low voice.
Wang Xiaotian quietly pulled Ling Yanzi and asked in a low voice, "What is personal gain?"
Ling Yanzi said: "In the process of exterminating Eagle Cliff, whoever kills the bandit, the property and equipment on the other party belong to the person who killed him." ”
"Oh. If you are killed by the other party, will you have a pension?"
Ling Yanzi was stunned when she heard this, shook her head and said, "I haven't heard of it." Bounty hunters are all licking blood on their heads, life and death, and wealth is in the sky. If you die, you can only admit that you are unlucky. ”
"So, what if they have a wife, sons, and daughters?
"I don't know. Maybe there is a small range of friendship that can entrust the family. For example, the two work together as bounty hunters, entrusting each other to take care of their wives and children if there is an accident. But every time the bounty is lifted, it is a temporary team, just like this time, most of them don't know each other at all, how can they entrust the family?"
Wang Xiaotian whispered to Ling Yanzi: "Will someone stick a knife in the back?"
Ling Yanzi immediately transmitted, "Of course there is." You'll have to follow me for a while, look around, and be careful of being attacked. ”
"Good. Sister, don't worry, you will leave your back to me. ”
Ling Yanzi: Uh...... That was not what I meant. She didn't say it, but her heart was still warm.
Gu Hongsan and Ding Jian talked in a low voice for a while. Then, Ding Jian said to Ling Yanzi and Wang Xiaotian: "You two come with me." ”
The two said almost at the same time, "Why are you going?"
Why is it Wang Xiaotian. Because he couldn't figure out Ding Jian's purpose.
And Ling Yanzi had participated in several bounty operations before, and knew that Ding Jian and Gu Hongsan were going to act separately, each responsible for different tasks.
Ding Jian said: "Gu Daoyou led them to attack Eagle Cliff from the front, and I took you with me, responsible for intercepting from behind to prevent Zhang Yihuo from escaping." ”
The two of them sighed and didn't say anything more.
Next, everyone packed up and moved on. After about ten kilometers, the two groups parted ways.
Gu Hongsan led a group of men to advance rapidly and attacked Eagle Cliff from the front. At this distance, it didn't matter if Eagle Bluff spotted them.
Ding Jian took Ling Yanzi and Wang Xiaotian and took the path to the back of Eagle Cliff to ambush.
Eagle Cliff, except for the gentle slope on the south side, the other three sides are almost all cliffs. If you don't go up the gentle slope, only an eagle can climb to the top of the cliff.
The reason why it is said that almost three sides are steep is that the slope on the left side of the cliff is slightly gentle, and there are many jutting boulders for resting. Practitioners with a strong Force can climb up.
However, this is very dangerous, because there is no resistance during the climb, and if it is discovered by the person on the top of the cliff, it is completely the target of the opponent's long-range weapons.
At this time, in the cottage lobby of Eagle Cliff, Zhang Yihuo was sitting on the warm and soft tiger skin seat, squinting at his narrow phoenix eyes, listening to the report of his subordinate Mei, known as "Xiaozhi Duoxing".
Mei has some ghost ideas, loves to play smart, and admires the "Zhiduoxing" Wu Yong in the old era novel "Water Margin", but he felt that Wu Yong's homonym was not good, so he changed it to useful (just connected with his surname...... IQ is still catching chickens).
"I just received news from Shangyang City, in the past half a month, in addition to the undercover agents we arranged, there have been four waves of people to inquire about your news, all of them are strangers with foreign accents. Among them, the highest force is a middle-aged man in his forties, a fifth-level mid-level force, with a Hongdu accent, and two men and a woman, judging from the title, it should be a son, a woman and an apprentice. Except for them, none of the remaining three waves of people even had a fourth-level Force, so there was nothing to be afraid of. ”
Zhang Yihuo didn't even open his eyes, and said softly: "Do it as before." ”
Mei responded and retreated lightly, leaving Zhang Yihuo alone in the huge room.
After a few moments, a figure shot in through the window as fast as lightning. Zhang Yihuo "soared" and stood up.
The person who came fell in front of Zhang Yihuo, stretched out his hand like a dry branch in front of him, opened Zhang Yihuo, sat on a tiger skin chair, and looked at Zhang Yihuo provocatively with his body half-lying down.
He was about 20 years old, not tall, thin, his face was no more than the size of a palm, his face was as pale as paper, his facial features were upright, but his eyes were upturned, his eyes were gloomy, and he looked particularly ruthless, but the sparse stubble on his upper lip and chin spoiled the atmosphere of the whole face.
The Force level of the person who came was only three high-level. With Zhang Yihuo's fifth-level mid-level strength, he could be killed with a single slap.
But in the face of the naked provocation of the comer, Zhang Yihuo dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and under the gaze of this gaze, he knelt down unwillingly, and laid a soundproof barrier before kneeling.
If this scene was seen by Zhang Yihuo's subordinates, they would definitely have to drop their eyes in shock.
"Hehe," the man chuckled twice, "Are you not convinced? Do you particularly want to use your best flame palm, and kill me with one palm? Don't you often beat me before? With your current palm power, my whole body must burn." Hehe, even destroying the corpse is easy to do. If the leader asks, you just have to say that you haven't seen it and you'll be fine. Why don't you do that?"
Zhang Yihuo's face was pale, but his narrow phoenix eyes avoided the sight of the visitor, and after a while, he lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Subordinate Zhang Yihuo greets the envoy and wishes the leader Wan'an." ”
Seeing that Zhang Yihuo was not stimulated by him, the visitor had to snort heavily, and said arrogantly: "The leader Wanfu Jin'an doesn't need you to worry about it." A certain family here has a leader to convey an important task. ”
"Please show the messenger, and your subordinates will listen attentively. ”
"Ahem. The leader's instructions: Zhang Yihuo's entrenchment in Eagle Cliff to rob the merchant travelers has attracted the attention of some big figures, and they are afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so they should get out and hide as soon as possible, so that he can continue to work for the organization in the future. ”
Zhang Yihuo was stunned for a moment, "My subordinates have been operating here for many years, and they have arranged for people to mix in Shangyang and Qingchuan, and take root, whether it is intelligence or funds, they have reached the time when they can be self-sufficient, wouldn't it be a pity to give up at this time." ”
"Zhang Yihuo!" The person who came suddenly jumped up and looked at Zhang Yihuo condescendingly, and shouted: "You dare to question the leader? Are you impatient?"
Zhang Yihuo was terrified when he heard this, and said repeatedly: "My subordinates don't dare, my subordinates don't dare." The subordinates then arranged a way to get out according to the instructions of the leader. ”
"Hmph, you don't dare. The man got up and left.
Zhang Yihuo saw that the person who came in front of him walked over without the slightest intention of stopping, and hurriedly shouted: "Messenger!"
"What are you doing?" asked the person who stood in front of Zhang Yihuo and lowered his head sarcastically.
"That ......" Zhang Yihuo looked begging, "that ...... Antidote ......"
"Haha......" The visitor laughed wildly, and his upturned eyes narrowed into two arcs, like an oxtail knife out of the sheath.
It took a while before he stopped laughing wildly, and said with a hideous face: "Zhang Yihuo, in vain, you broke through the fifth-level Force, and for this antidote, you are not even as good as a dog! By the way, what about your little? Aren't you inseparable? Why didn't you see her? Next time, if you still want the antidote, you and that little will play a human-dog battle in front of me, let me take a good look at your ugliness!"
Zhang Yihuo was furious, his face was red as blood, and he couldn't stop trembling. His long and narrow phoenix eyes widened.
Legend has it that there was a god named Guan Yu in the old era, known as "Guan Erye", who also had a pair of narrow phoenix eyes, usually squinting, and only opened his eyes when he killed people. So he left an old saying "If the second master doesn't open his eyes, he will kill people when he opens his eyes".
However, Zhang Yihuo's eyes were round, but he only glared at the person who came, and he couldn't say a word, let alone kill someone.
In response to Zhang Yihuo's angry gaze, the visitor snorted very contemptuously and shouted: "Look at what you see! Why are your eyes so wide open? Do you have a kind of killing me? If you stare at me again, pour the antidote into the dung tank." If you ask for someone, you have to look like you are asking for someone!"
Under the gaze of the visitor, Zhang Yihuo's round phoenix eyes gradually turned back to narrow and long, and finally he leaned down in humiliation, lowered his head, and touched the ground with his head, "Ask the messenger for medicine." ”
"Be louder, I can't hear you. "Someone here is proud.
"Ask the messenger for medicine. Zhang Yihuo's voice was an octave higher.
"Well, why do you cry like a mosquito? You haven't eaten? Louder!"
"Please ask the messenger for medicine!" Zhang Yihuo shouted in his throat.
"That's pretty much it. A small porcelain vase slipped down the sleeve of the visitor and fell in front of Zhang Yihuo.
Zhang Yihuo hurriedly reached out to catch it and held it tightly in his hand.
The person snorted coldly and asked, "Do you regret it very much now that you let me join the Red Ants?"
Zhang Yihuo hung his head, "No regrets." ”
The visitor smirked, "At that time, you must not have thought that I would be the messenger to contact you, right?"
"The subordinates can only obey the arrangement, and they have not and dare not have any conjectures. ”
The person who came said contemptuously: "Rubbish!" and then his body was like electricity, and he walked away through the window.
Zhang Yihuo burst into tears and cried. The sadness of the sound is enough to break the hearts and intestines of the listener.
He choked up while crying, "Son...... Son, why can't you understand your father's painstaking efforts...... Red ants are highly poisonous, all over the world, everywhere, if there is a different heart, there are no bones. If I don't, neither of us will survive. ”
Ding Jian led the two of them to the trail and hurried all the way to the bottom of the cliff, but he was not in a hurry to climb, but leaned against the tree with his sword in his arms and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Wang Xiaotian was very strange and asked, "Why don't you leave?"
Ding Jian glanced at Wang Xiaotian when he heard this, and said lazily with disdain: "Little pot friend, it is easy to be discovered when you climb up at this time, and you will go up again when it is messed up." That's how it stays safe. Got it?"
Ling Yanzi was slightly stunned and said, "Shouldn't we be ambushed here, waiting for Zhang Yihuo to throw himself into the net?"
Ding Jian glanced at Ling Yanzi, "Do you think they can force Zhang Yihuo to flee without a fight?" Zhang Yihuo's cottage has taken a lot of advantage from the high ground, and he has been entrenched here for many years, and the cottage is operated like an iron bucket, and those people don't have much good equipment in their hands, and they will definitely suffer a lot of losses if they rely on physical resistance." ”
Ding Jian paused and said, "However, they still have the strength. There are not many people under Zhang Yihuo who can be used, as long as those people attack desperately, Zhang Yihuo's cottage will not last long. ”
Wang Xiaotian said with some surprise: "How do you know this?"
